Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua
Chapter 228 The Queen Mother Intercedes
The empress dowager was still trying to dissuade the emperor. Not to mention that she was not present at the time, even if she was, she would not let the emperor put the empress under house arrest so easily. The empress dowager felt sorry for the empress, not Concubine Li. However, if the empress dowager was really present, it would be hard to say what would have happened to Concubine Li.
"What does the Empress Dowager think?" the Emperor asked, already prepared for the Empress Dowager to plead for the Queen.
"I want to ask you, was Concubine Li a little unconscious yesterday?" The Queen Mother must have heard about it, so she asked this.
If the Queen Mother was not sure, she would not have asked.
"good."
"Emperor, since Lipin is crazy and said this, then it is even more unbelievable. You must know that the words of a madman cannot be trusted. It is the same reason. Lipin is just a madman now. If Lipin pointed out that the person she brought was not the queen, but me, does the emperor also put me under house arrest?"
The Queen Mother said sternly: "If the Emperor believed even the words of a madman and confined the Queen Mother, that would be truly ridiculous. In my opinion, Lipin was just anxious and just dragged someone else into it."
The emperor knew that the empress dowager would do this, and he was not in a hurry to refute it. Instead, he agreed with the empress dowager's point of view.
"What the Empress said makes sense. But yesterday, not only was the Empress there, I was there too, and Concubine Hua was there too. If the Empress was truly innocent, why would Concubine Li only hold onto the Empress? It's a bit far-fetched for the Empress to say this. The Empress didn't have to protect the Empress so much."
The Emperor now has a plan in mind. Whenever something happens in the palace that involves the Queen, the Queen Mother will always intervene. It's not surprising, after all, the Queen is the Queen Mother's cousin.
It's not surprising to say that the Queen Mother did it for the family honor.
"Emperor, you know what kind of temper the queen has. After Chunyuan, the queen has always been virtuous. After all, she is Chunyuan's sister and has some similarities with Chunyuan. It is precisely because of the queen's motherly character that those with ulterior motives have the opportunity to take advantage of her."
The person who had ulterior motives that the Queen Mother was referring to here must be Concubine Li. No matter how you look at it, it must be Concubine Li who did it on purpose.
"What the Empress Dowager meant is..." The Emperor had guessed it in his mind, but he didn't know if it was what the Empress Dowager meant.
"You are the emperor, Lipin would definitely not dare to frame you, and Hua Fei has always been at odds with Lipin, so it is natural that framing the queen is the most appropriate. I guess Lipin was also thinking that she could get the queen to plead for her, but good deeds will eventually be rewarded, and all this is what she has reaped the consequences of."
The Queen Mother continued, "In my opinion, the Emperor should release the Queen from her house arrest."
The emperor was silent for a moment and did not say whether he agreed or not.
"My son will consider what the Empress Dowager said."
Since the Empress Dowager had said this and the Emperor had heard it, there was nothing wrong, so he bowed and went back.
The emperor had actually considered this matter, and he didn't want the empress dowager to worry about it, but after all, the imperial edict had just been issued, and it would not be good to resolve it immediately, so the emperor was not intervening in this matter for now.
Ever since the queen was placed under house arrest, Nian Shilan has become the most powerful person in the harem.
In a good mood, Nian Shilan called Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing to come to her palace to talk early in the morning.
"This Lipin really deserves it. Xin Chang is so vicious. We are really lucky that we didn't eat too much. It would be bad if she turned out like Qi Fei."
Concubine Duan was the first to speak. Although this happened several days ago, she still sighs about it and is really scared when she thinks about it.
"That's true, but it's a good thing that Concubine Qi already has the Third Prince, otherwise she would have been miserable for the rest of her life."
Jingpin was talking here, and she actually felt a little sympathy for Qifei. Although Qifei was not favored, it was always good to have a child.
"But the emperor is also considering us sisters. Now Lipin has finally received the punishment she deserves. Even the queen is now under house arrest."
Nian Shilan gently pushed her face with the jade wheel and said with a smile, "Sister, do you think the Queen ordered this?"
Nian Shilan asked this and also wanted to know their opinions on the queen.
"Well, even if we don't say it, the emperor must know about it. It's just because of the queen mother's face that he can't ignore it. Otherwise, how could it be as simple as house arrest?"
The one who spoke was Concubine Duan. Obviously, she was thinking the same thing as Nian Shilan. Concubine Jing did not say anything, and it seemed that she also acquiesced.
As they were talking, Zhou Ninghai came in and announced that Concubine Wang had brought the Fourth Prince over.
"Hurry up and ask them to come in. It's cold outside. Don't let them catch a cold." Nian Shilan said this hurriedly. Since this incident, she rarely saw Wang Changzai and the Fourth Prince. The last time they came was at Zi Xuanshu's birthday party.
"I pay my respects to Concubine Hua, and to Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing."
When Wang Jin came in and saw Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing were there, he bowed together.
She didn't like to go out on weekdays, so she had rarely seen the ladies in the palace. Even now, she had not been to every corner of the palace.
"It's been a while since I last saw my sister. Fortunately, Hongli is here too. Let me take a look at him."
Concubine Duan was very surprised to see the child. She took Hongli into her arms.
"Sister Duan Fei is very friendly. Hongli likes her when he sees her."
Nian Shilan smiled and said that looking at Concubine Duan's expression, one could tell how much she loved children.
"It's winter now, is your room still warm?"
Now that the Queen is under house arrest, the power to manage the six palaces is definitely in the hands of Nian Shilan, so she has to be involved in all matters big and small in the palace.
But he is also conscientious.
"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I will live with you in the Yikun Palace. The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs will make sure that the room is warm for the sake of Madam. After all, it doesn't matter if I suffer, but I cannot let Fourth Prince suffer."
Hearing Wang Jin say this, Nian Shilan felt relieved. After things settled down, it was time to help Wang Jin avenge Li Jingui. She would never forget what she had promised her. After all, Nian Shilan was a person who kept her promises.
But not everyone in the Yikun Palace is on good terms with Nian Shilan, for example, An Lingrong...
