Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

The Queen Mother walked out of the Buddhist temple with a smile on her face.

She was indeed praying for the two children, and the Queen Mother's body was stained with the scent of sandalwood.

Nian Shilan thought that if her child had been liked by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, perhaps the Empress Dowager would have gone to the Buddhist temple every day to pray for her child.

It’s a pity that his own child did not have that blessing. It was not, and could not be, the child’s fault, but the ambition of the Queen Mother and the Emperor that killed him!

Although she thought so in her heart, Nian Shilan had to agree on the surface: "The children of Concubine Fang and Concubine Xin are so blessed that the Empress Dowager can recite scriptures and pray for them every day. But my child does not have such a blessing..."

Nian Shilan's tone unconsciously became low. Although she knew that her miscarriage was caused by the Emperor and the Queen Mother, now she just wanted to talk about it in front of the Queen Mother to see if she could have a clear conscience and if she felt no pain at all.

Obviously, when she said this, the Queen Mother's expression became a little unnatural. Although it was only for a moment, Nian Shilan still noticed it.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a while and didn't say anything. Perhaps she felt guilty and didn't know how to start the conversation.

"Queen Mother?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't say anything, Nian Shilan called out softly, and the Queen Mother came back to her senses.

The empress dowager suddenly forced a little smile on her face, but it was not difficult to see that this smile was mixed with guilt, remorse and panic.

"What is the Queen Mother thinking about? She is so absent-minded."

"Hey, it's nothing. I just thought of the child you conceived before. If there had been no accidents back then, the child should be three years old now."

The Queen Mother always remembered the child in her heart, but she had to do so because she was afraid of Nian Gengyao... However, for Nian Shilan, this was not an excuse, and an unborn child should not be left to bear the burden.

"It's all in the past, don't think about it, Queen Mother. Concubine Fang and Concubine Xin are pregnant now. If they give birth to two grandchildren, it will be a blessing for the Queen Mother."

Nian Shilan coaxed the Queen Mother with sweet words, which made the Queen Mother happy.

"Queen Dowager, it's time to take the tonic." Zhu Xi came out with a bowl of black, steaming tonic and brought it to the Queen Dowager.

The Empress Dowager has to take this tonic every day. After all, she is old and needs to take good care of herself. Even though the Empress Dowager is the most noble woman in the world, she has a lot of worries.

Naturally, she needs to take this tonic every day. When she was a concubine, she had to worry about her children's future. Now that she has become the empress dowager, she still has to worry about the emperor's harem. Her cousin's daughter, Yixiu, is not one who can be taken lightly either.

In fact, the empress dowager knew everything the queen had done, but since she had already done it, it was irreversible. For the glory of the Ulanara and Uya families, she could not depose the queen.

Seeing the Queen Mother's look of disgust, Nian Shilan took the tonic on her own initiative.

He scooped up a spoonful, placed it on the edge of the bowl to cool, and then fed it to the empress dowager's mouth. However, these jobs were done by Shen Meizhuang in the previous life, which was why the empress dowager liked her so much. Now he wanted to follow Shen Meizhuang's path and leave her with no way to go.

"Empress Dowager, open your mouth. The spoon is already cold. Don't let me see you acting like a child." Nian Shilan scolded, but the spoon moved closer to the Empress Dowager's mouth little by little.

"You kid."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It's impossible to avoid it. Now, only Nian Shilan can coax the Queen Mother. Even if the Emperor comes to feed her, it won't work."

One spoonful after another, he finally finished the whole bowl.

The Queen Mother wiped her mouth and said, "I have spoiled you. If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have to take this tonic."

"Then I will come often. It just so happens that I also like staying at the Queen Mother's place."

Although Nian Shilan said this now, she had already made plans. After leaving the Empress Dowager's place, she claimed to be sick and did not go out in the afternoon. Not to mention coming to the Empress Dowager's place every day, she would not even be able to come tomorrow.

Hearing Nian Shilan say this, the empress dowager felt much happier, and even the medicine she had just taken tasted bitter.

"If the Queen Mother finds this tonic bitter, then I will stew Dong'e Ejiao Longan Soup for her in the future. It will replenish Qi and nourish blood, which is the best."

This Dong'e Ejiao is indeed a good thing, and Nian Shilan also knows that it should be presented to the Queen Mother as a token of filial piety.

"I am old, why should I eat those seeds? When you are young, you should eat more and take good care of your body so that you can have children for the emperor."

"Empress Dowager~" Nian Shilan held the Queen Dowager's legs and said coquettishly: "After all, this is a token of my love."

"Okay, okay, Shilan, you are so thoughtful. I will eat it. I can't do anything to you, kid."

The Queen Mother knew that Nian Shilan was truly filial, so she spoiled her and liked her from the bottom of her heart. It would have been better if she were just Nian Shilan.

After leaving the Empress Dowager, Nian Shilan took a stroll in the Imperial Garden and then returned to Yikun Palace.

"Jinxi, Songzhi, from now on, Yikun Palace will be closed to visitors. Just say that I'm sick and need to rest." Nian Shilan gave the orders as soon as she sat down.

"Yes."

Although I did as Nian Shilan instructed, I just felt that Nian Shilan was being too cautious.

"Is your Majesty doing this to avoid Concubine Fang and Concubine Xin?" Jinxi asked. After all, in this palace, Jinxi knew all the tricks.

Nian Shilan chuckled disdainfully: Concubine Xin is fine, she is not a bad person, but Concubine Fang is something we must be on guard against. "

"It's good for your majesty to be more cautious, but you don't have to stay indoors. Hasn't Concubine Fang's pregnancy been fine?"

Of course, Jin Xi didn't know whether Concubine Fang could give birth to a child, but Nian Shilan knew that it was better not to cause trouble.

In the previous life, Concubine Fang lost her child, so she slandered me and said that I killed her child. Then she was sent to the cold palace by the emperor. She deserved it. In this life, I would just hide away from the world and not bring bad luck upon myself.

Naturally, she couldn't deny it even if she wanted to.

"She stays in Suiyuxuan all day and never comes out. Who knows if she is doing well or not? It's better for her to stay away."

Nian Shilan knew that Songzhi and Jinxi must not understand why she was like this now and thought she was making a fuss about nothing, but they would definitely understand in the future.

In this palace, people's hearts are at play. If you are not careful, you will be manipulated by the other party.

Jin Xi nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty is right."
