Chapter 361: Guar Jia Wen Yuan 45

For a time, everyone in the Zhen residence was in a panic. The search team arrived quickly and surrounded the Zhen residence. All the rooms were turned upside down, and finally, a book wrapped in yellow silk was found in the secret compartment of the study.

This seemingly ordinary book was like a bombshell that pushed the Zhen family into an abyss of no return.

With both witnesses and evidence available, Zhen Yuandao had no way to defend himself. He was charged with "intention of treason" and thrown into prison.

"Your Majesty, great joy! Great joy!" Jingtai ran into Yongshou Palace excitedly, waving a piece of silk in his hand, which he got from nowhere.

Wen Yuan was leaning on the couch, flipping through a storybook out of boredom. Seeing that Ying'er was getting agitated, she frowned slightly and said unhappily, "What's the matter that's worthy of making such a fuss? It's rude!"

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Zhen family, the Zhen family was ransacked!" Jingtai was so excited that he spoke incoherently and almost swallowed his tongue.

"What?!" Wen Yuan sat up straight, not caring at all that the notebook fell to the ground.

"Tell me again, whose house was confiscated?"

"It's the Zhen family, that is, Zhen Huan's family!" Jingtai saw that his master finally became interested and hurriedly repeated.

"It is said that Lord Zhen secretly hid a treasonous book in his study and was reported. The emperor was furious and has ordered the entire Zhen family to be imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. Even Zhen Huan's brother has been dismissed from his post and is now on his way back to the capital!"

"Hahaha, God is really helping me! God has eyes!" After hearing this, Wen Yuan laughed so hard that she shook with laughter, and the depression in her heart was swept away.

"That bitch has ended up like this, it's really satisfying!"

She stood up suddenly and paced back and forth in the room, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Jingtai, tell me, should I go to the cold palace to see how miserable that bitch is now? When she was in great favor, she was so arrogant. Now that she has lost all her support, I wonder if she will cry and beg me to spare her!"

Seeing this, Jingtai stepped forward and tried to dissuade her, "Madam, you are pregnant now, you must not get angry! What kind of place is the cold palace? It is gloomy, damp, and filthy. If you go there, what if you bump into something unclean? Wouldn't that hurt the dragon fetus? Besides, Zhen Huan is now a lost dog, why bother to take care of her in person and dirty your hands for nothing!"

Wen Yuan felt that Jingtai's words made sense, so she suppressed her impulse and sat back on the couch with a smile on her face: "You are right, why should I dirty my hands? Go, take some gold and silver jewelry, pick out a few pieces of fine cloth, go to the cold palace, and tell her that they are a reward from me to Zhen, and ask her to take good care of herself and not waste the emperor's 'kindness'. By the way, tell her this 'good news'!"

Jingtai smiled knowingly and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty is wise. I will do it right away."

Looking at Jingtai's departing back, Wen Yuan's smile became even more intense.

Jingtai took the order and left, but Wen Yuan was no longer in the mood to continue reading. She rubbed her belly and paced back and forth in the room, replaying Zhen Huan's arrogant face in her mind. Thinking about it now, it was really ridiculous.

Following Wen Yuan's instructions, Jingtai took a few young eunuchs and swaggered to the cold palace.

Along the way, she did not forget to show off to the palace maids and eunuchs passing by, for fear that others did not know how favored her master was now.

The cold palace is located at the westernmost part of the imperial palace. It never sees sunlight all year round, and is cold, damp, and smells musty. The two red lacquered doors at the entrance of the palace have long been mottled, and one of them is missing a piece, revealing the desolate scene of weeds growing inside.

Jingtai frowned in disgust, raised one hand, covered his mouth and nose with an embroidered handkerchief, and ordered in a shrill voice: "Go, open the door!"

The two young eunuchs pushed open the door of the cold palace with great effort. The shrill "creak" sound startled a group of crows, which flapped their wings and flew across the desolate courtyard.

Jingtai covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief in disdain, stepped over the threshold in small steps, and shouted loudly: "Zhen, Zhen! My queen has given me something to reward you, why don't you come out and thank her!"

Deep in the cold palace, in a dilapidated house, Zhen Huan was staring at a few withered plum blossoms. When she heard Jingtai's voice, she frowned slightly, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she still stood up slowly, straightened her old clothes that were washed white, and walked out.

The dilapidated scene of the cold palace formed a sharp contrast with the silk and satin on Jingtai's body. She covered her nose in disgust, fearing that she would be contaminated by the bad luck of this poor place.

"Zhen, my queen is kind-hearted. Recalling your past favor, she specially gave you some things as a reward. Why don't you come out and thank her!" Jingtai's voice was sharp and piercing, as if he was mocking Zhen Huan's current misery.

Zhen Huan walked out of the house slowly. The once graceful and elegant Concubine Wan now looked haggard. Her old clothes, which had been washed so much that they turned white, made her face look even paler and bloodless.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Zhen Huan is now a disabled person and does not deserve this favor." Zhen Huan's voice was calm, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

"I'm sorry, our queen is now the Imperial Consort, the most honorable person in the harem! Now the Emperor only favors our queen, and everyone in the harem has to act according to our queen's wishes. Even if you are down and out, you still have to follow the proper etiquette." Jingtai said, putting the tray in his hand into the hands of a little eunuch next to him and looking at Zhen Huan with a squint.

As soon as Jingtai finished speaking, a young eunuch couldn't wait to place the things on the tray on the ground one by one.

It was called a reward, but in fact, the things on the tray were just some dark-colored cloth and a few roughly made silver ornaments, which formed a sharp contrast with Jingtai's gorgeous clothes.

Zhen Huan watched Jingtai's performance coldly, with no ripples in her heart.

She had long seen through the coldness of the harem. Now, she was just an abandoned child forgotten in a corner. Who would be truly kind to her?

"What's the matter? Zhen, what do you think after seeing the things given by the Imperial Noble Consort? Do you think the things given by our Empress are not good and not worthy of you?" Seeing that Zhen Huan was just looking at him coldly and had no intention of accepting the gifts, Jingtai felt unhappy and his tone became sarcastic.

"I dare not." Zhen Huan said lightly, and no emotion could be heard in her voice.

"Hmph, it's good to know! Our queen is now the Imperial Noble Consort. In this harem, except for the Empress Dowager, our queen is the most honorable. Even the former Empress was not half as honorable as our queen! You'd better recognize your own identity!" Jingtai became more and more excited as he spoke.
