Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 371 Asking Concubine Duan for Help

"Your brother will be coming to the capital tomorrow. He has won another victory this time. I have to think about what reward to give him."

The emperor said as he ate his food: "Gold, silver, jade and other small items are all exquisite, and I always feel that they are not enough."

Originally, Nian Shilan should be happy to hear this, but now every time she heard the emperor say this, she couldn't help but worry.

The emperor said he would reward my brother with gold, silver, jade and other things, but the emperor felt that was not enough, so the rest would just be promotion and advancement? !

If this continues!

Nian Shilan knew what was going to happen. In the past, when she heard the emperor say that he would reward her brother, she was always happy. But now, she just sat beside the emperor and observed his expression.

"Your Majesty, it is my duty to serve you. You don't have to reward me with anything."

Nian Shilan smiled and said, "It's just that I am thinking, as your younger sister, I really don't want my brother to go to the battlefield again. After all, swords have no eyes."

Nian Shilan thought that after she said this, the emperor would listen to her ideas, but the emperor also had his own plans in mind.

君要臣death,臣不得不death!

The emperor laughed stiffly twice: "Okay, let's eat quickly. We'll talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow."

The emperor had already said this, so Nian Shilan could not say anything more. However, she ate the meal very carefully and found it difficult to swallow.

After dinner, the emperor returned to the Yangxin Palace and did not stay in the Yikun Palace.

But Nian Shilan always felt uncomfortable in her heart, couldn't let it go, couldn't sleep, and started to worry.

"Jinxi."

Nian Shilan shouted anxiously, "Go and invite Concubine Duan over."

Seeing that Nian Shilan was in a bad mood, Jin Xi didn't dare to ask more questions and hurried away.

After Jin Xi left, Song Zhi and Zhou Ninghai were the only ones who stayed with her. One was massaging her head, one was massaging her legs, and Ling Zhi was fanning her.

But Nian Shilan was angry, and Lingzhi was also unlucky, so Nian Shilan, who was fanning herself, became even more annoyed.

"Get out." Nian Shilan snatched the fan and threw it outside the door.

Lingzhi knelt down immediately upon seeing this: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, calm down."

Nian Shilan didn't bother to pay attention to her. She was already angry and now she didn't want to say a word.

When Lingzhi made a mistake, Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai were so scared that they didn't dare to say anything.

In fact, they both knew the reason.

"Is your Majesty worried about General Nian?"

Songzhi rubbed Nian Shilan's temple and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The general has won the battle now, and the emperor will definitely be very happy."

Happy? If the emperor was really happy, he would not have asked E Min and Zhen Yuandao to investigate Nian Gengyao.

"What I am worried about is that my brother has won another victory and has made great contributions, so it is inevitable that the previous court will discuss it."

To put it bluntly, I am just worried that my brother's achievements will surpass the emperor. The current emperor himself is not unaware of how much he cares about the mouths of the ministers of the previous dynasty. If it really gets out that my brother's achievements surpass the emperor, I already know what the emperor will think.

If the brother's contribution is really greater than that of the emperor, then the emperor will inevitably have a sense of crisis. After all, there is only one master in this world.

If a person with greater merits than the monarch suddenly appears, the emperor will inevitably worry about the change of control of the world.

What's more, in his previous life, the emperor was worried that his brother would force him to abdicate.

But I don’t know why. I had clearly told the emperor before, but the emperor still assigned my brother out.

If my brother wasn’t a military general, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have such a favor.

"By the way, Zhou Ninghai, go find Lord Zhao and tell him that I want to see him."

Nian Shilan suddenly remembered that she could ask Zhao Zhiyuan for information: "Remember, do it quietly, don't let anyone see you. I will be waiting in the Imperial Garden later."

Zhou Ninghai listened to Nian Shilan and did it. Now it was dark, so it would be safer and would not attract other people's attention.

After a while, Jin Xi brought Concubine Duan over.

"What's the matter? Why are you looking for me so urgently?" It was late at night, and Qi Yuebin knew that if there was nothing wrong, Nian Shilan would never call him over in a hurry.

"Sister, sit down."

After the formalities, Jin Xi left, taking Song Zhi away with her. Only Qi Yuebin and Nian Shilan were left in the room.

"To be honest, my brother will be back soon."

Nian Shilan had no intention of hiding the secret from Qi Yuebin, so she got straight to the point as soon as she arrived.

Qi Yuebin was also born in a military family, maybe she could help him a little. In case something unexpected happened.

Although Nian Shilan thought so, things were changing rapidly and she could only take one step at a time.

"That's great news. You two haven't seen each other for a long time. I heard that the emperor thinks highly of General Nian. I heard that he has won another victory this time."

Seeing Nian Shilan's silent expression, Qi Yuebin seemed to understand something: "Sister, you mean..."

Although Qi Yuebin did not say it out loud, the two of them already understood the meaning.

Qi Yuebin understood that she had married the emperor earlier than Nian Shilan, so naturally she knew the emperor better. In fact, if Nian Gengyao had this crisis, then Longkodo would probably not have a good ending either.

When the emperor ascended the throne, didn't he rely on the help of Nian Gengyao and Longkodo? Now he has started to kill the meritorious officials.

Although the emperor has not taken any action yet, Nian Shilan can guess roughly what he has done.

"Sister, if something unexpected happens in the future, would you be willing to help me?"

Nian Shilan spoke directly, saying that she was sure that Qi Yuebin would help her.

Because she knew that Qi Yuebin did not love the emperor.

When Qi Yuebin married the emperor, it was just a political marriage. Qi Yuebin had told me before that she already had someone in her heart and it was just fate.

"You and I are sisters. If I don't help you, my life will be meaningless. So, if I don't help you, what's mine is yours."

Qi Yuebin spoke sincerely, and Nian Shilan didn't think she was lying. Besides, Qi Yuebin wouldn't do that.

Nian Shilan patted her hands, looking pleased. But from this moment on, Nian Shilan had secretly vowed in her heart that she would never treat her unfairly in the future.

In fact, when Qi Yuebin brought her the jade fruit to avoid musk snakes, Nian Shilan knew that she really treated her well.
