Chapter 268 Yinzhen's Concubine 4
Chuxiu Palace
When Sheng Huan came back, several concubines glanced at her, wondering what kind of fortune she had, but no one came forward to ask what happened when she went to Chengqian Palace.
But after all, there was some hostility. After all, Hesheli Panshu's identity was enough to make them wary.
Sheng Huan didn't care. He returned to the original owner's room and began to pack the national costume he would wear for tomorrow's election.
But in my heart I was thinking about the original owner's wishes.
"Knock knock!"
I don’t know how long it was, but there was a knock on the door, and at the same time, a nanny’s voice was heard.
"Hesheligege, are you in there?"
Sheng Huan knew who was coming. His eyes moved slightly. He put down his clothes, walked over and opened the door. As expected, he saw the nanny who usually took care of the concubines and a strange palace maid.
She showed a puzzled expression at the right time: "Mammy, I'm here. What do you want to talk to me about?"
When the nanny saw Sheng Huan opening the door, she smiled and said, "This is Lu Shuang, the head maid of Concubine Hui of Yanxi Palace."
After the nanny finished speaking, the maid beside her bowed slightly to Sheng Huan and said, "Hesheli Gege, your servant Lu Shuang, our queen learned about you from the Imperial Noble Consort and likes you very much. She specially asked this maid to come and invite you over." She paused and said, "Our queen is already waiting in the Yanxi Palace."
Sheng Huan seemed a little surprised, but nodded: "I dare not trouble Concubine Hui and others."
The two set off.

Qianqing Palace
As soon as the young emperor finished dealing with state affairs, he stood up and stretched his hands and feet in the hall.
At this moment, Liang Jiugong walked in from outside with his body hunched over, holding up several books in his hands.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort of Chengqian Palace has sent over the list of beauties to be selected for tomorrow's palace selection."
Kangxi waved his hand indifferently: "Leave it alone for now."
Liang Jiugong nodded and put the booklet on the table.
Kangxi, who was in the middle of his activities, seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked: "Did Concubine Hui say that she would select a few servants for the boss?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort has also sent the list of concubines selected by Concubine Hui."
Liang Jiugong bent over, guessing in his heart that maybe Concubine Hui would send someone to invite His Majesty over tonight.
"Oh? It has been chosen." Kangxi became a little interested and walked forward.
"Which one was chosen by Concubine Hui?"
"Your Majesty, it is this volume."
Kangxi picked up the booklet and looked through it. All the girls in it were from humble family backgrounds, and they would be good candidates to be paired with Yinzhen as concubines.
However, as if he had seen something, his eyes darkened, with an unclear meaning: "Hesheli Panshu? The granddaughter of Hesheli Shuai Yanbao?"
Kangxi sneered: "Concubine Hui is really bold."
Hesheli clan is the prince's maternal family. In terms of blood relationship, although they are separated by several rooms, Hesheli Panshu is still the prince's cousin. Concubine Hui wants to extend her hands to Hesheli clan. What on earth does she want to do? She is simply dreaming. She is so shameless.
"Is this really the book that has been approved by the Imperial Concubine?" Kangxi looked at Liang Jiugong with a questioning look on his face.
The Imperial Concubine shouldn't be that confused.
Liang Jiugong felt that Kangxi was in a bad mood, but he could do nothing about it. It was not his fault. He nodded and said, "It was sent by Chen Fangxue, the chief eunuch of the Imperial Concubine. I think it should be correct."
Liang Jiugong suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Majesty, I just heard that Concubine Hui sent someone to the Chuxiu Palace to summon a concubine, and it seems to be this Hesheli Gege."
Kangxi almost laughed out of anger: "Let's go to the Yanxi Palace. I want to go and take a look too."

Sheng Huan was following Lu Shuang to the Yanx Palace. On the way, he heard Pu Hua's message that Kangxi was going to the Yanx Palace.
But in the original owner's memory, she did not see Kangxi today.
458: [Host, you are about to meet your old lover. What do you think?]
Sheng Huan lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and said boredly: [I don’t have any ideas. I’m thinking about another problem now.]
458 Hearing the Strings Knowing the Elegant Meaning: [Host, are you thinking that it is unreasonable for the original owner's identity to be assigned to the eldest prince?] Without waiting for Sheng Huan to speak, 458 continued: [It is not unreasonable, after all, there is the reborn Tong Jia clan in the middle, and her status is high enough, so it is easy for her to do anything.]
Sheng Huan nodded in agreement: [But why did the original owner only get a concubine? Does the plot explain why?]
458 shook his head: [No, this is not a novel world, there is no specific plot, only the original owner's experience. What the original owner doesn't know, we don't know here either. But the original owner guessed that it might be because of the prince that she could only be the eldest prince's concubine.]
It is enough for one family to support only one prince. It may be that the higher-ups deliberately suppressed her status.
[All right. ]
Suddenly, Sheng Huan's eyes moved slightly, as if he had heard some news. No wonder he didn't see Kangxi. It turned out that there was some movement in Chengqian Palace.
But she was not surprised. After all, Imperial Concubine Tong was reborn. What she wanted to do most now was probably to stop Kangxi from seeing her and prevent any accidents from happening.

This side, Chengqian Palace
When Imperial Noble Consort Tong learned that Kangxi was on his way to the Yanxi Palace, she was shocked. She grabbed Yue Xin's hand and asked anxiously: "Did Consort Hui summon Hesheli?"
The harem is so small that if it is not concealed, everyone in the palace will know about any movement.
Yue Xin felt pain from being grabbed, but she didn't dare to say anything. She just nodded: "Yes, Master."
Imperial Concubine Tong's heart was pounding violently. Could it be that His Majesty and Hesheli were truly destined to be together? How could they meet in this way? No, she couldn't let them meet.
Thinking of what later generations would say about love at first sight, her breathing became unstable, and her eyes became fierce: "Go and ask His Majesty to come over, and tell him that I fainted, and do it quickly! Don't let him see Hesheli!"
Being stared at by Imperial Concubine Tong with a murderous look, Yue Xin felt confused and frightened, and bowed quickly.
"Yes."

As for Kangxi, on his way to the Yanx Palace, he met the eldest prince Yinzhen before he even reached the palace.
"Your son greets the Emperor."
When Yinzhen saw Kangxi, he hurried forward to pay his respects.
Kangxi nodded, guessing that Yinzhen was here to see the concubines. He stroked the jade ring with his fingers, and it was unknown what he was thinking: "A few days ago, your literature teacher told me that your recent studies are not very good."
Yinzhen's face froze. His joy at seeing Kangxi disappeared and he became a little nervous.
Then Kangxi said: "Remember to spend more time when you go down, don't let the younger brother behind you catch up."
"Yes."
Before Kangxi could say something, he saw Yue Xin, a maid from Chengqian Palace, appear from the side in a panic and kneel on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine suddenly fainted just now!"
-
Yanxi Palace
Concubine Hui was originally unhappy that Kangxi was kidnapped when he was almost at the gate of her palace, but after seeing the eldest prince, her unhappiness instantly diminished a little.
"How come the eldest prince came so quickly? I thought it would take a while."
Yinzhen was a little depressed after being taught a lesson by Kangxi, but he didn't show it. Hearing this, he looked at her in surprise: "Mother, do you know I'm coming?"
"Oh, you didn't see Luyun, did you? It's okay, I'm glad you're here." When Concubine Hui heard this, she looked behind him and indeed did not see the palace maid she had sent to the prince's residence.
Yinzhen didn't think much about anything else: "I haven't been here for a few days, so I came here today to pay my respects to my mother."
"Big brother is really filial."
Concubine Hui narrowed her eyes, her face full of joy. Thinking of something, she said, "Big brother, you are old enough now. It happens that there is an election this year. Mother has selected a few suitable concubines for you. Mother knows that you don't like those two palace maids. Don't worry, a concubine will come over soon. She is beautiful, a lady from a noble family, and has a good family background. Take a look."
The eldest prince didn't expect that when he came, Concubine Hui would tell him about this matter, and he said impatiently: "Mother, this matter is not urgent."
"Why not? Mother, tell me, this concubine Hesheli..."
"Master, Hesheli Gege has arrived."
