Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 346: Praying for Rain at the Temple of Heaven

However, what shocked Nian Shilan was that An Lingrong was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, but she had such a long-term vision!

Let the Fourth Prince inherit? Humph?! Even biological mothers and sons may not be without guard, let alone an adoptive mother?

In the previous life, the Fourth Prince was raised by Zhen Huan. Every time the mother and son met later, was it not a test?

The descendants of the Aisin-Gioro family are impossible to tame!

"Sister, you shouldn't say that."

It would be fine if An Lingrong was just talking nonsense, but Nian Shilan could not bear the responsibility of this crime.

Besides, even if he really had some thoughts in his mind, he couldn't let An Lingrong know. Who knows when she might betray him again.

"Don't worry, Imperial Concubine. Everything I do is for you."

An Lingrong's eyes were firm and determined, and she didn't seem to be lying, but Nian Shilan was still a little wary. Some words could only be listened to and could not be taken seriously.

That is to say, An Lingrong doesn’t have a child now, but if she has a child, she doesn’t know how she will deal with herself. She definitely cannot let An Lingrong get pregnant.

"What? Don't you think about yourself at all?"

Nian Shilan leaned forward. It would be more believable to say that An Lingrong was using her name to avenge Zhen Huan and Noble Lady Fucha.

In the past, didn't Noble Lady Fucha rely on her pregnancy to boss An Lingrong around all the time?

Her life in the Yanxi Palace was not easy either.

"To be honest, even if I don't consider myself, I should consider my father and mother. After all, their safety is entirely up to the Empress. Lingrong also knows that if she wants her father and mother to live a good life, then Lingrong has no choice but to listen to the Empress. There is no other way."

What An Lingrong thought was true, and it seemed that she really considered her father and mother. Nian Shilan reluctantly accepted this statement.

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back. I'm tired too. But you're right, as long as you stay by my side and listen to me, I won't let your father and mother down."

After saying this, Nian Shilan let An Lingrong go back.

The next day, the emperor went to Yikun Palace after court.

After An Lingrong came yesterday, Nian Shilan did go to bed late. Early in the morning, he sent someone to say that he was not feeling well and would not come to pay his respects.

I wanted to have a good sleep in Yikun Palace, but I didn't expect the emperor to come over after court. I happened to run into Nian Shilan, who hadn't gotten up yet.

"My lady, my lady."

Songzhi shook Nian Shilan's body and whispered, "Your Majesty, wake up. The Emperor is coming."

She was sleeping soundly, but Nian Shilan didn't want to pay any attention to her.

The emperor also came over in person.

Songzhi also stepped aside politely to make room for the emperor.

"If you don't wake up, I'll leave."

The emperor had seen Nian Shilan's tricks countless times.

But every year when Shilan was used, the emperor couldn't help but take the bait.

Such a noble concubine Hua is indeed very cute.

"Your Majesty." Nian Shilan opened her eyes dazedly, only to find that the emperor was sitting there.

"Why is the emperor here? Doesn't he have to go to court?"

He didn't notice what time it was, and when he saw the emperor here, he asked hurriedly.

This scene seems like an ordinary harmonious couple.

"I have already left the court."

The emperor pinched Shilan's face and said, "I just wanted to come and see you."

"I have already left the court."

The emperor pinched Shilan's face and said, "I just wanted to come and see you."

"Songzhi, help me change my clothes quickly."

"Your Majesty is really a fool. He didn't even tell Shilan before he came. This is my fault."

Normally, if Nian Shilan said this, she might be acting coquettishly, but not now.

I didn't sleep well to begin with, and now that the emperor is here, I don't need to sleep at all.

"I came here to tell you something."

The emperor said in a serious tone: "I just went to the queen's place and heard that you were not feeling well. But what's the reason?"

As he spoke, the emperor began to look him up and down, but judging from his alertness, he was just not fully awake, and did not look like he was feeling unwell.

"I am fine, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

Nian Shilan put on some clothes and then sat down and asked.

"The weather has been dry recently, and all farmers have had poor harvests and the economy is in a bad state. If we really let the drought continue, I'm afraid we won't have enough food and clothing in the future."

When Nian Shilan heard this, she realized that the emperor was planning to go to the Temple of Heaven with the empress to pray for rain.

"So I thought that I would go to the Temple of Heaven with the Queen to pray for rain. We will be back in a few days. Shilan will have to work hard these few days."

"It's not hard. How could I feel it's hard?"

Nian Shilan smiled and said, "When will the emperor leave?"

Although it is autumn, the weather is still very hot. It is not even hotter than in summer.

There was nothing wrong with letting herself be in charge of the harem, but when she thought about the fact that Zhen Huan's child was gone in the previous life, her legs began to tremble.

Starting from the knees, there are no resources below.

"The day after tomorrow."

The emperor was silent for a while, then spoke again: "I think that Concubine Wan is pregnant now, and it is indeed hard work. I think she should be rewarded. How about promoting her to Concubine Wan? What do you think, Shilan?"

The Emperor's preference for Zhen Huan has never been limited to this. Perhaps he has long wanted to promote Zhen Huan, but he just used her pregnancy as an excuse.

After all, the promotion of concubines is based on ancestral rules and regulations. Even if he is the emperor, he cannot violate the ancestral system.

"I think it's a great idea. Your Majesty, please make the decision."

Nian Shilan looked indifferent. Well, she had no objection to Zhen Huan's promotion to the position of concubine, so naturally she would not say anything.

"I just don't know what the Queen is thinking."

The Queen does not have the right to manage the six palaces now, but Nian Shilan thought that by bringing it up, it would show respect to the Queen, so it would be fine as a formality.

But I didn't expect that the Queen's opinion was different from mine, so I don't know who the Emperor will listen to.

"The Queen means that there is no rush for this matter. It won't be too late to confer the title after we return from the Temple of Heaven."

The emperor was a little hesitant when he said this, "But I have always thought that since Huanhuan is pregnant, it is better to promote her early. First, I value her. Second, her position is higher, so it will be more convenient for her to do things."

Isn't what he meant by the promotion tomorrow? If that's the case, then there's no need to worry about the Queen, since the Emperor has already made the decision.

"Okay, this position of concubine is naturally worthy of Lady Wan, but I wonder if it would be too hasty to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare it now?"

But before the emperor could speak, she had already come up with an idea.
