Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 169: Gentle and Considerate Nian Shilan

When the emperor heard Nian Shilan's voice, he raised his eyelids and took a look. Although he didn't say anything, he looked much calmer than before.

The emperor didn't say anything, so Nian Shilan walked over and sat next to the emperor, patting his back gently to calm him down.

Xiao Xiazi and the others were naturally considerate. Since Concubine Hua had arrived, there was no need for them to stay here. They bowed, closed the door, and stood guard outside.

After all, how could Nian Shilan become a concubine? Her ability to coax people is unique. Perhaps it cannot be said so absolutely. The emperor just likes Nian Shilan. Anyone will be more tolerant towards the person he likes, even the emperor is no exception.

Looking at such a beautiful and familiar face in front of me, gentle, intellectual, considerate, well-behaved and sensible, naturally no matter how angry I am, it will be greatly reduced.

Nian Shilan herself could feel that in her previous life, the emperor did not like her as much as he did in this life. Perhaps it had something to do with what she had done before.

"Okay, stop filming. You're tiring yourself out."

Nian Shilan came in and didn't say anything. The emperor didn't say anything and she didn't ask either. It was quiet for a while. Finally, the emperor spoke first.

"Your Majesty, Shilan is not tired. The main thing is that I am afraid that Your Majesty will get sick from being angry, which would be bad." Nian Shilan said coquettishly.

She knew that the emperor would like to hear this the most at this moment.

"I don't know why the emperor is so angry."

Nian Shilan looked around the room and asked, "Didn't the emperor ask Concubine Xia to sleep with him today? Why is she not here?"

"Don't look for her anymore. I have moved her to the cold palace." The emperor said this calmly.

Nian Shilan was curious. How big a mistake could one have made to be banished to the cold palace for just sleeping with the emperor? "I wonder what the reason is?"

When this was mentioned, the emperor became angry: "Humph, vulgar, and the family education is the same. Tomorrow I should ask the Baoyi Zuoling Xia Wei how he taught his daughter! Such treason is a violation of the law!"

Nian Shilan was also stunned when he heard it. Xia Dongchun really deserved it for this crime of insubordination. It would have been fine if he had just listened to it in the Imperial Garden today, but he even dared to insubordination in front of the emperor. No one knew what he said.

"Who did this Xia offend?" Nian Shilan asked curiously, but she didn't know whether the emperor would tell her.

The emperor just kept his eyelids drooped and didn't say anything for a long time.

"I spoke out of turn. If Your Majesty doesn't want to say anything, then there is no need to say it. It was I who said too much. I shouldn't have asked."

Seeing that the emperor hadn't spoken for a long time, Nian Shilan realized that he might have said something wrong, so he quickly squatted down and apologized.

Nian Shilan in this life is indeed much more sensible, and even she herself feels it. If she were a man, she would definitely not have the heart to be angry with such a woman.

In the past, I would never be so willing to admit my mistakes so easily.

"Alright, alright, get up soon too. I'm angry at that bitch, it has nothing to do with my beloved concubine."

Looking at Nian Shilan in front of him, the emperor was truly moved, and quickly stretched out his hands to help her up.

"It's nothing, just that bitch's rude words, and the rules of sleeping with me, that's all, let's not talk about it."

The emperor just made a perfunctory remark in a casual manner. After all, sleeping with the emperor in the palace would damage his prestige and it should not be spread out. He also did not want this matter to affect his image in Shilan's heart.

Although the emperor did not elaborate, Nian Shilan could guess that it was because Xia's behavior in sleeping with the emperor was inappropriate and might even have hurt the emperor's health. She had instructed the bedroom nanny not to teach Xia the rules properly, but she never thought that the nanny was so efficient and sent Xia directly to the cold palace.

However, it is easy to deal with Xia because the emperor does not like her. If it were Zhen Huan, Nian Shilan would not be sure.

The next morning, after helping the emperor change his clothes, Nian Shilan went to Jingren Palace to pay her respects to the empress.

Although the Yangxin Palace is close to the Jingren Palace, the emperor got up late and Nian Shilan had to help him change his clothes, so she must have been a little late when she went to the Jingren Palace.

"Hey, it's okay that Concubine Hua is late, but why hasn't Concubine Xia come yet?! There are more and more unruly people in the palace!"

Concubine Qi was sitting in the store, looking at the seat opposite her and seeing that no one was there yet. She couldn't help but say something. She had never gotten along with Concubine Hua, and she would definitely say something about Concubine Hua being late.

The Queen was already unhappy because Concubine Hua always came late. Now if there was another arrogant person like Xia Dongchun, the Queen would not be able to tolerate it.

It is enough to have one arrogant person in the palace, there must not be a second Hua Fei!

"Forget it, since he didn't come, let's just wait a while. I don't think Concubine Xia did it on purpose. After all, the emperor turned over Concubine Xia's card last night. Maybe he served him late, so it's inevitable that he got up late."

Although the queen said that she didn't care, her face was already dark.

"Don't wait any longer. Concubine Xia won't come."

Concubine Hua walked in slowly from outside Jingren Palace and spoke.

"Greetings to the Queen."

"What do you mean when you said just now that Concubine Xia would not come?!" The Queen looked at Concubine Hua and did not understand what she meant by "not coming".

In fact, the first thing the Queen thought of was, could it be that Concubine Xia was called away by the Emperor again? Could it be that the Emperor likes her so much?

Concubine Qi hadn't come to her senses yet. She just saw Concubine Hua coming and felt very upset.

Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang and others had no idea what was going on. They just sat there quietly and listened to what Concubine Hua had to say.

"Oh, it's really Concubine Xia's bad luck. She was sent to the cold palace by the Emperor. The Empress must know this." Concubine Hua sat down slowly and spoke again.

But looking at the Queen's expression, she probably doesn't know. However, Concubine Hua also thinks that Xia Dongchun is trying to curry favor with the Queen. Why doesn't the Queen save her?

Yes, it was late last night, and it was the emperor's order. Not to mention Yixiu, even if Queen Chunyuan came, it wouldn't work.

"Cold Palace?!" the queen was shocked.

Suddenly, Jingren Palace was silent and everyone looked solemn. Although they didn't know whether this matter was true or not, Concubine Hua would not joke about it.

The Queen took a break, and seeing Concubine Hua sitting in her seat drinking tea comfortably, she changed her expression again: "Sister, you are used to joking. After all, Xia is also a newcomer to the palace, and she was named a concubine. Our Emperor is also not unaware of being sympathetic to women. Sister Hua, you are joking."

The Queen only said this, but she was still half-believing and half-doubting in her heart. After all, this matter came from Concubine Hua's mouth, not Su Peisheng or Xiao Xiazi, so the credibility was not that high.

"Sister Hua Fei, do you dislike Concubine Xia? You are cursing Concubine Xia and hoping that bad things will happen to her."

Concubine Qi sat nearby and made sarcastic remarks without thinking it was a big deal.

When Nian Shilan heard what Concubine Qi said, she couldn't help but laugh.

"I curse her?"

Concubine Qi's stupidity made Nian Shilan so amused that she couldn't even drink the tea in her hand.

"Sister Qifei is really good at joking. She is just a concubine. Why would I be so arrogant? Sister Qifei, you should stop guessing, lest you tell others and make fun of me."

"you......"

That’s right, Concubine Qi was no match for Concubine Hua and was left speechless by her retort.

"Well, we still don't know what the situation is. What Concubine Hua said is not entirely credible. Maybe there is still a way out. Let's see what the emperor says."

Seeing the two arguing, the queen tried to dissuade them.

But Zhen Huan was not a fool. Although she did not show anything on the surface, she was still worried in her heart.

Since Concubine Hua can say so, it must not be groundless. There must be something fishy about this matter.

Zhen Huan didn't say anything, she just turned her head and looked at Shen Meizhuang, but Shen Meizhuang understood what Zhen Huan's eyes revealed.

An Lingrong knew a little about it. She remembered that she had nothing to do last night and slept late. She heard a young eunuch go to Concubine Hua in the middle of the night.

After that, Concubine Hua went out, and there was no other movement.

Just as he finished speaking, Su Peisheng came in from outside.

It was no coincidence that most people knew what was going on as soon as they saw Su Peisheng.

"Eunuch Su, why are you here? Shouldn't you be serving the Emperor at this time?"

Of course, Su Peisheng's appearance now is definitely inappropriate. That's why the queen asked this question.

"Your servant pays respects to Her Majesty the Queen and all the ladies."

Su Peisheng came in and greeted everyone.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has issued an order to abolish Xia's position and banish her to the cold palace."

In fact, Nian Shilan had already mentioned this matter when she just came. The Queen was half-believing and half-doubting, so the Queen was not surprised when Su Peisheng said it now.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Eunuch Su."

The queen simply replied and Su Peisheng left.

"Look, Sister Qi Fei, I told you long ago that I was cursing the Xia family. Now you know it, right?"

Thinking back to what Concubine Qi said just now that she was cursing Xia, Nian Shilan wanted to say something to Concubine Qi, didn't you say you didn't believe it? Now look what happens, Su Peisheng has come to convey her order, so you must believe it, right?

Only then did Concubine Qi realize that she had spoken without thinking. What Concubine Hua said was not untrustworthy. After all, she was the emperor's favorite concubine.

"This... is it, so what."

"Okay, I'm tired too, everyone please leave." The queen said casually.

Since I didn't want to talk any more with these women, I just said something and let them go.

"Jianqiu, what do you think about this matter?" The queen asked Jianqiu as soon as she entered the inner hall.

The queen herself thought that Xia Dongchun was not a smart person, but the emperor had clearly chosen her name last night, so how come she was sent to the cold palace overnight?

It's strange. I don't know what happened last night.

"Your Highness, I think Xia is stupid. You don't have to care about her. She is useless if she is sent to the cold palace by the Emperor on her first night with him."

Even Jianqiu, a servant, thinks that Xia is stupid, let alone the emperor.

But she was just a concubine, and the queen didn't care too much about it.

However, Xia Dongchun was banished to the cold palace, which shocked Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.

The two of them had just entered the palace and had no idea what had happened. From their perspective, Xia was banished to the cold palace just because she had slept with them once. How could they not be afraid?

It can be said that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger.

These two sisters have to be more careful in the future.

"My queen, are we going back to Yikun Palace?"

After coming out of Yikun Palace, Songzhi didn't see Nian Shilan heading towards Yikun Palace, so she hurriedly asked.

"No, go to the cold palace." The display bar said with an evil smile.

Originally, the fact that Xia was banished to the cold palace had something to do with Nian Shilan. Humph, Nian Shilan now doesn't know whether Xia regrets what she said in the Imperial Garden before, so naturally she has to go to the cold palace to visit her.

When Jinxi heard that Concubine Hua was going to the cold palace, she became upset and hurriedly tried to persuade her.

"My queen, the cold palace is a gloomy and gloomy place. Your precious body cannot go there."

But Jinxi couldn't persuade Nian Shilan. Nian Shilan continued walking towards the cold palace and said, "It doesn't matter. Forget about the cold palace. I've been everywhere."

That’s right, Nian Shilan had been to the cold palace before. It was just an abandoned house, what was so scary about it?

Not to mention the cold palace, I have already been through the gates of hell once.

However, Jinxi had no idea what these words meant. Although she knew that Concubine Hua was brave, others thought that the Cold Palace was an unlucky place and tried to avoid it.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. You can't go to the cold palace." Jin Xi said as she chased after him.

After talking all the way, they finally arrived at the gate of the cold palace.

"Leng Gong."

Looking at this word, I seem to be able to feel the mood I felt when I came here in my previous life. It is vivid and desperate.

I now feel both indifferent and unfamiliar with this place.

"go in."

Before Jinxi stepped forward to stop her, Nian Shilan pushed open the door of the cold palace.

"Empress Hua, why are you here? This is not the place for you. There is a lot of yin energy here. Don't let it offend you."

Seeing Concubine Hua coming, Tang Wenlin, who was working in the cold palace, hurried over and said.

"Eunuch Tang." Nian Shilan recognized him without even thinking.

Yes, they had met before, in the previous life.

"Does the Empress know me?" Eunuch Tang was still thinking that he was just a small eunuch working in the cold palace. It was difficult for him to even meet an Empress like Concubine Hua, who was the most favored among all the palaces, let alone make Concubine Hua remember him.

The only eunuch who could be remembered by Concubine Hua is a senior eunuch like Su Peisheng.

Moreover, she was originally working in the cold palace, which was very unlucky for her. She was usually ostracized and looked down upon.

"I know him." Nian Shilan said lightly and didn't reveal anything more.

Of course he knew him. During the time when Nian Shilan was in the cold palace, Tang Wenlin took good care of her.

After all, Nian Shilan is a person who knows how to repay kindness and never owes favors to others. Since Tang Wenlin took care of her in the previous life and she did not repay him, she should at least show her gratitude in this life.

“By the way, where does that Xia live?” Nian Shilan asked. This was the important reason why Nian Shilan came here.
