Listening to what Nian Gengyao said, this was a satisfactory answer for the emperor.

Then, a faint smile appeared on the face that was originally full of suspicion.

"Well, it's hard for you to serve the court like this."

Seeing that the emperor was happy, Nian Gengyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, don't call me Your Majesty when you are outside. Call me, Master."

"Yes, Prince Guo and Su Peisheng agreed at the same time."

Nian Gengyao thought that he had been here for quite some time and everyone here knew him. If he called him "Emperor", people would inevitably be suspicious.

"Your Majesty, then this humble minister."

The emperor also saw Nian Gengyao's concerns and said, "You don't have to be with us every day. Just do your own thing. Besides, you are the only place providing disaster relief, and you are not able to handle it. I will go somewhere else to help other people."

"Yes."

Nian Gengyao listened, and he didn't have to follow the emperor every day, so he didn't have to worry anymore. It is said that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, and it is indeed true.

When the emperor entered the city, he seemed out of place. Most of the people here were dressed in rags, and basically no one wore silk clothes like the one the emperor wore.

The common people only wore coarse cloth clothes.

As soon as the emperor entered the crowd's field of vision, naturally all eyes were focused on him. As soon as one looked at this group of people, one could tell that they were of extraordinary origin.

After traveling for a long time, they found an inn and stayed there.

......

Royal Palace

After the emperor left, Wang Jin finally didn't have to hide in the room all the time. However, every day, at most he would go to Hua Fei's place to sit and play with Hongli.

"Look at this child Hongli. He really likes his sister. He smiles when he sees her."

Hongli was in Hua Fei's arms, smiling happily, perhaps because it was warm here. After all, she was a concubine, so her food, clothing and other necessities were naturally much better than Wang Jin's.

Concubine Hua just listened to Wang Jin and didn't say anything.

It is naturally good that Hongli likes me, but I don't need to cultivate feelings with him in the future. After all, it is better to raise him by my side since he is young. If I contact him after he grows up, I will have to spend a lot of time and effort.

"Sister's palace is a hundred times more beautiful than mine."

Wang Jin looked at Concubine Hua's magnificent palace and was extremely envious.

In fact, it was not just Wang Jin who was envious. Every woman in the palace was envious. Compared with the Queen's Jingren Palace, Yikun Palace was three points inferior.

Time flies, and more than ten days have passed, but Concubine Hua seems not to have had enough.

But these ten days were undoubtedly boring for the queen.

"I received a message from the emperor early this morning. He will be back soon. After the disaster relief, the lives of the people have improved a lot."

The emperor's actions achieved good results, and the queen's face was filled with joy.

Concubine Qi was also happy when she heard that the emperor was coming back.

"The Emperor is coming back."

The expression on her face was so excited, as if she would be able to sleep with the emperor when he returned.

"Concubine Qi, why are you so excited? It doesn't matter to you whether the emperor comes back or not."

Concubine Hua looked at Concubine Qi with a somewhat contemptuous expression.

Songzhi stopped and stood back, almost unable to hold back her laughter, but Li Wanting was still in a daze, not knowing what Concubine Hua meant.

"It doesn't matter. Hua Fei, what do you mean by this?"

Concubine Qi was very confident. Although Concubine Hua had the power to assist in managing the six palaces, she was not afraid of her.

It's because I gave in to her too much on a normal day that she is so outspoken.

Concubine Hua couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw Concubine Qi's stupid look, but she held it back.

"Sister Qi Fei, I think I don't need to tell you how many times the emperor visits you in a month."

Only then did Concubine Qi understand what Concubine Hua meant. It turned out that she was mocking her for not having favor.

But, so what? She is Hongshi’s biological mother.

"Hua Fei, the emperor has been to your place so many times, why don't you seem to be pregnant with a prince?"

I can finally talk to her about it, so she won't be so arrogant all the time.

Hearing this, the Queen felt somewhat relieved. Concubine Qi actually made some progress in knowing how to use this to criticize Concubine Hua.

But Concubine Hua is not so easy to deal with. If she doesn’t fight back when Concubine Qi confronts her, she won’t be called Nian Shilan anymore.

Hua Fei drank a sip of tea slowly and sighed: "Oh, sister Qi Fei, if you ask me, it's no wonder that the emperor doesn't like to go to your place. So what if you give birth to a prince? The emperor has to like it. I remember that the last time the emperor saw the third prince was a long time ago."

Concubine Hua knew that Concubine Qi cared most about the Third Prince. If she made her unhappy, she would naturally have a way to make her unhappy.

Speaking of Hongshi, Concubine Qi was indeed irritated. "You..." She was so angry that she couldn't speak. She just sat there with her eyes wide open, gasping for breath.

The relief on the queen's face suddenly disappeared.

This Concubine Qi only has three minutes of brain time.

Everyone present couldn't help wanting to laugh when they saw Concubine Qi's silly look, but since she was a concubine, few people dared to show it on their faces.

After sitting for a while, everyone left, only Concubine Qi was kept by the Queen.

The Queen didn't want to scold Concubine Qi, but she couldn't help getting angry.

"You, you, why bother to argue with Concubine Hua?"

Seeing the queen getting angry, Concubine Qi said with a wronged look on her face: "I just can't stand Concubine Hua's frivolous look."

Concubine Qi felt aggrieved. She had always been bullied by him when she was in the palace. At that time, she was just a princess. Now that they were both concubines, she was of course unwilling to be suppressed by him again.

The queen didn't help him but scolded him instead.

"Flirtatious? Has she been frivolous for just one or two days?"

The Queen was already used to Concubine Hua's behavior: "She may be frivolous or not, but the Emperor likes her. If you argue with her, aren't you just asking for trouble?"

Concubine Qi was naturally unhappy, but Nian Shilan was very happy.

It was extremely boring in this deep palace, and he could only have some fun with Concubine Qi and the Queen.

Concubine Hua now has a very good relationship with Concubine Duan. Going to Yanqing Palace is like going to Yikun Palace. She can come and go as she pleases.

Concubine Hua thought that she hadn't seen Xuanshu for a long time. Anyway, Concubine Xin was with Concubine Duan and they both lived in Yanqing Palace, so it would be nice to go and see her.

In fact, in the previous life, it was because he had given Concubine Duan safflower that Concubine Duan became ill, so he had to vacate Yanqing Palace for Concubine Duan to live in alone so that she could recuperate.

Without waiting for anyone to report, Concubine Hua walked in on her own.

Concubine Hua and Concubine Duan were on good terms, and when Jixiang saw them, he hurried forward to pay his respects and say hello: "Madam Hua is here, our Majesty is inside."

Concubine Hua also walked in with a smile.
