Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

The emperor's decree has come down, and Su Peisheng has also informed the six palaces.

When Shilan heard the news, he was inevitably shocked.

"Your Majesty, are you just confining the Queen?"

Nian Shilan's tone was full of doubt. Maybe Su Peisheng had heard it wrong and conveyed the emperor's order incorrectly.

Su Peisheng reacted and understood what Nian Shilan meant. It was obvious that she didn't believe it.

"Yes, your majesty, that's what the emperor said."

In fact, not only Nian Shilan found it unbelievable, even Su Peisheng found it unbelievable.

This involves Empress Chunyuan. Both Su Peisheng and Nian Shilan know how much the emperor values ​​Empress Chunyuan.

Now we know the cause of death of Empress Chunyuan. Both mother and child were killed. Even if Yixiu was not killed, she should at least be deposed.

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

After Nian Shilan finished speaking, she asked Su Peisheng to leave first.

I guess the emperor will be here soon: "Songzhi, go to the small kitchen and prepare some dishes that the emperor likes. Oh, and don't forget my favorite crab cakes."

Nian Shilan gave instructions, and Songzhi smiled, bowed and left.

Now only Nian Shilan and Jin Xi are left in the room. But she just can't understand that the relationship between the emperor and the empress is just husband and wife in name only.

To say that it was because the Emperor pitied the Empress? That was absolutely impossible.

"Jinxi, I just can't understand why the emperor only punished the queen by confining her to her house when this matter clearly involved Queen Chunyuan?"

Jin Xi sees things more clearly and has more experience than Song Zhi, so Nian Shilan thought of asking her.

However, what Jin Xi saw was not just the relationship between the emperor and the queen.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so nosy. Perhaps you have overlooked that the current Empress is not only married to the Emperor, but is also the younger sister of Empress Chunyuan and the niece of the Empress Dowager! I think that perhaps the Emperor only confined the Empress because of these two relationships."

Jin Xi’s analysis was correct. In fact, this was what the emperor thought. Nian Shilan also understood a little bit.

The emperor attaches great importance to filial piety, and the empress dowager favors Ulanara. To be honest, the empress dowager's reason is more important.

"The Queen Mother's health is getting worse day by day. After all, she is old. The Emperor has to consider the Queen Mother. If the Emperor insists on having his own way, the Queen Mother will be really angry and do something bad. I am afraid that the former dynasty will be in turmoil again."

Nian Shilan thought about it and said that she felt that Jinxi's analysis made sense: "Let's go to Shoukang Palace to see the Queen Mother tomorrow. It's a good opportunity to bring Hongli with us."

The Empress Dowager is seriously ill now, and as a royal concubine, it would be inappropriate for me not to go and see her. However, I have been busy with the affairs of the harem these past two days and have not found the time to visit the Empress Dowager.

But I'll bring Hongli with me tomorrow. After all, he's the Empress Dowager's grandson, so I think the Empress Dowager should be happier.

As dusk gradually faded, the emperor also came over. Although he was in a bad mood, he still came to see Nian Shilan with a smile on his face.

"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."

Nian Shilan, like before, was there to greet the emperor at the door early. Even though he was very angry, as long as the emperor looked at Nian Shilan's face, his temper would instantly disappear.

After all, it was the Queen's fault, so he would not vent his bad temper on Se-ran, nor would it affect his feelings towards her.

"Get up quickly."

The emperor held Nian Shilan's hand and pinched her face, "Come in quickly. There are a lot of mosquitoes at this time. There is no need to wait for me outside like this."

"I'm fine. I'm willing."

Nian Shilan said with a smile. The emperor was very satisfied after hearing this. He said nothing more and pulled Nian Shilan in.

Although the emperor said there was no need to wait, if there was really no sign of Nian Shilan outside the palace, I'm afraid the emperor would be disappointed.

"You've heard about the Queen."

The emperor knew that Su Peisheng must have already come to convey the message, but the emperor knew that the queen and Nian Shilan had been at odds for a long time, so he didn't know whether Nian Shilan would be satisfied with this punishment.

If she is satisfied, it means she is magnanimous. If she is dissatisfied, it is also normal. Even I am dissatisfied with this punishment. I believe Chun Yuan in the underworld should be the same.

If he hadn't been concerned about the Queen Mother, the Queen wouldn't have had such an easy time either.

Nian Shilan was stunned for a moment. She thought the emperor's question was just a test.

She lowered her eyelids and continued, "Your Majesty is wise. Your action is out of consideration for the Empress Dowager. It also gives the Empress a chance to repent and reform. No one is perfect. I think if the Empress does something that breaks the rules again, it won't be too late to punish her."

I don’t know if this answer will satisfy the emperor. Nian Shilan is just saying something nice.

Nian Shilan's answer naturally satisfied the emperor, but she was only half right. It was true that the emperor was considering the empress dowager, but he did not think of giving the queen a chance to reform.

"There are some things you will know in the future." The emperor looked at her with a smile.

But Nian Shilan didn't care. After thinking for a long time, she still didn't know what the emperor was talking about, so she simply gave up thinking about it. She knew what she should know, and she would definitely know it.

"By the way, your brother will be back soon. Those bitter and cold border areas in the northwest are also thanks to your brother."

The emperor said this with a smile on his face, but his tone sounded stern.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to praise my brother so much. That is what my brother should do as a subject."

It would be fine if he talked about other things, but when it came to Nian Gengyao, Nian Shilan couldn't help feeling a little nervous. She deliberately emphasized the word "subject". She also wanted to make the emperor feel that her brother was law-abiding and that the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects should not be transgressed.

The same thing happened, as his brother would be back soon, and also because he had made military achievements, Nian Shilan had to be very careful.

Although the emperor had a smile on his face, it always made people feel that it was not from the heart.

The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and his majesty cannot be offended. Nian Gengyao is about to return, but before he came back and during this period of time, the emperor had already sent people to investigate Nian Gengyao.

The people who investigated him were Zhen Yuandao and Guwalgia Emin.

Based on his experience in the previous life and his understanding of the emperor over the years, he asked Jin Xi to arrange someone to go the next day.

"My queen, everything has been arranged. Zhao Zhiyuan from the previous dynasty will keep an eye on Zhen Yuandao and Emin for us."

"Zhao Zhiyuan."

The name sounded familiar, but Nian Shilan couldn't remember who it was.

"Yes, this Zhao Zhiyuan once received the favor of the general, so he is a useful person."

Jin Xi hurriedly explained.
