Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Nian Shilan continued to ask: "I wonder which sister the emperor prefers. Concubine Duan is of noble status, steady and gentle, so she will surely be good to Hongli. Or, Concubine Jing will also be fine. I can see that she likes children very much."

The emperor didn't say anything, but Nian Shilan said a lot. It didn't matter who Hongli's adoptive mother was, as long as she didn't have to be from the queen's side.

I don't know whether Hongli will become dependent on me during the days I spend with him. But what's the use of him becoming dependent on me? Whether it will work or not depends on the emperor's words, right?

"Concubine Duan, Concubine Jing. That's right."

The emperor had indeed considered these two candidates at the beginning: "My intention is to find a mother of noble status and high position for Hongli. I would like to hear your opinion."

In fact, the candidate the emperor was satisfied with was just Nian Shilan, but he didn't say it out loud. Let's see what Nian Shilan meant.

During these days in Yikun Palace, the emperor also discovered that Hongli had a good relationship with Concubine Hua. It seemed that Concubine Hua treated him as her own son. Although Concubine Hua was not much older than the Fourth Prince, age had nothing to do with it as long as both parties were willing.

"The emperor is the one who is in a high position. Could it be that he is referring to the queen?"

If that's the case, it will be difficult to deal with.

But think about it, this isn't right. The emperor knows what the queen did, and it's impossible that he doesn't know who killed Wang Jin. Nian Shilan herself couldn't bear to see Hongli recognize a thief as his mother.

The Queen's character is not upright, and it is a miracle that she can still sit on the throne. Now the Queen does not even have the right to manage the six palaces, and the Emperor will not let her raise a child.

"Queen?"

Speaking of the queen, the emperor's voice seemed a little disdainful: "Shilan, why don't you think about yourself?"

The emperor had made it clear, but Nian Shilan knew the emperor's temper.

Although I was happy, I didn't know whether what the emperor said was true or not, so I didn't dare to respond casually.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... If Your Majesty and Hongli are willing, Your Majesty will certainly be willing."

She didn't know whether her answer could satisfy the emperor. Although she didn't know whether the emperor asked this sincerely or out of test, Nian Shilan still said what she thought.

After all, this is the only chance you have, so you have to try your best. If you miss it, others will get the advantage.

Having a child by your side, even if not your biological one, is always better than having no one at all.

After listening to Nian Shilan's answer, the emperor smiled with satisfaction. In fact, the emperor was not worried at all about what would happen to Nian Gengyao if Concubine Hua raised his child. He was worried before, but now he has thought of other ways.

"It's best if you think so. I have always had my heart set on you. Moreover, I have seen that Hongli likes you, and he has been growing up in Yikun Palace since he was a child. It would not be good for the child to move to another palace at will. I feel relieved if he follows you."

The emperor looked at Nian Shilan with a smile in his eyes, but his smile did not seem so innocent, as if Nian Shilan had to pay some price to raise this child.

The emperor glanced around and saw Hongli's figure in the corner. His small figure always aroused people's desire to protect him.

"Hongli, come here, come to your father." The emperor said as he opened his arms, ready to hug Hongli.

Nian Shilan finally came to her senses and looked in the direction the emperor was looking. It was unknown how long Hongli had been standing there.

She was thinking that it would be bad if Hongli heard her and the emperor discussing finding a foster mother. After all, children nowadays have a lot of thoughts and Hongli is not a child anymore.

Hongli also came over and politely paid his respects to the emperor and Nian Shilan: "Your son pays his respects to the emperor and to Empress Hua."

The emperor was happy to hear this, but he also corrected Hongli's mistake: "Hongli, don't call her Empress Hua, call her E's mother."

"Um Niang?"

Hongli probably understood the reason behind it, and probably just called Hua Fei "mother" just like he called her "mother".

In fact, in Hongli's cognition, he always thought that Wang Jin was his biological mother, not Li Jingui.

"Father Emperor, does Hongli have another mother?"

This question stumped the emperor. When Wang Jin passed away, Hongli didn't understand.

Nian Shilan also gave the emperor a wink. Hongli was still young, and Nian Shilan didn't want him to know these things and cause mental changes.

He is a good child. Nian Shilan doesn't want him to become ruthless because of some things. It would not be a good thing if Hongli was out of her control.

"Yes, Hongli's mother has gone to a very far place. Can Empress Hua be Hongli's mother in the future?"

Nian Shilan looked at Hongli with eyes full of doting, and Hongli nodded in cooperation.

The emperor was satisfied when he saw the mother and son.

"From today on, Concubine Hua of Yikun Palace will be promoted to Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua is the biological mother of the Fourth Prince! Nian!"

The emperor's decree was pronounced in a clear and precise manner, which was a pleasant surprise to Nian Shilan.

"What? You're so happy that you don't even know how to thank me?"

The emperor looked at the stunned Concubine Hua and teased her.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace."

After the decree was issued, the emperor left. The next step was to let Su Peisheng convey the decree to the six palaces.

The date for the enthronement ceremony was set on Hongli's birthday, which wasn't too long away, so it was a perfect opportunity to double the joy.

But Nian Shilan was a little nervous. In her previous life, she had also sat on the position of a noble concubine. She didn't expect that she could still do it now. From now on, she had to be extra careful.

I am now in a high position, and I don't know how many eyes are watching me in the harem. And the Queen, I don't know how much she wants to pull me down from this position.

What's more, I now have a son around me. In the future, I will not only have to take care of myself, but also this kid.

"what?!"

The Queen was furious and slammed the table: "The Emperor promoted Concubine Hua to, Noble Concubine Hua?! And gave the Fourth Prince to her to raise!"

I really don't understand what the emperor is thinking! For so many years, everything has been peaceful, why is the emperor doting on Concubine Hua to such an extent now!

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Eunuch Su just sent an order saying this."

Jianqiu saw that the queen was angry and hurried to comfort her.

Since this news came from Su Peisheng, it must be true.

"I just don't know if the Queen Mother knows about this."
