Fang Chunyi looked at Nian Shilan with a smile on her face and said coquettishly, "I miss you, Imperial Concubine. The cakes in your palace are the most delicious. I wanted to come here to satisfy my craving."

When the emperor heard Fang Chunyi's words, he laughed out loud, looked at Fang Chunyi with a doting look and said, "Chun'er is just like that, always thinking about eating."

Nian Shilan felt a little unhappy when she saw Fang Chunyi pretending to be obedient and silly, and then she said in a slightly cold voice: "It's really unfortunate that Concubine Chun came. My small kitchen doesn't have any extra snacks prepared today."

Fang Chunyi was obviously stunned. He didn't expect that Nian Shilan would treat him like this in front of the emperor.

The emperor was also sensitive to the fact that Nian Shilan was in a bad mood at the moment, but he mistakenly thought that he was too intimate with Chun Changzai just now, and thus became jealous. Not only did the emperor not think that Nian Shilan was too jealous, but he was actually happy that she cared about him.

Seeing Fang Chunyi standing there somewhat dejectedly, the emperor cleared his throat and said, "If Concubine Chun likes the cakes in Changle Palace, then take them all back."

After hearing what the emperor said, Fang Chunyi realized that if he continued to stay, he would only be annoying, so he bowed slightly and left with the cakes.

When only the emperor and Nian Shilan were left in the palace, the emperor looked at Nian Shilan with a smile and said, "Why is my beloved concubine so distant from Concubine Chun?"

Nian Shilan looked at the emperor with a bit of pride, and her voice was also filled with a bit of coquettishness, "What does your Majesty mean? Are you going to bring an army to punish me for Concubine Chun?"

When the emperor heard Nian Shilan's words, which were obviously full of jealousy, his smile became more obvious. "Oh? The Imperial Noble Consort is getting more and more presumptuous. Is she going to challenge me openly?"

When Nian Shilan heard the emperor's words, she did not hesitate and knelt in front of the emperor and said, "I dare not. I hope the emperor will punish me."

The emperor saw Nian Shilan kneeling in front of him, saying that she didn't dare, but her expression was clearly unconvinced. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, I was just joking with you just now. How can I bear to blame you?"

Nian Shilan stood up with the emperor's hand, then sat on a chair beside her. Her expression softened, and she said with some grievance in her voice, "Something like that happened in my palace a while ago. I just don't want the sisters in the harem to come to my palace often. I just don't want to cause them trouble."

When the emperor heard what Nian Shilan said, he had not thought of this. He looked at Nian Shilan with some doubt and asked, "Does Concubine Chun come to your palace often?"

Nian Shilan nodded, and Songzhi said, "Your Majesty, you really blamed my queen wrongly. She smoked realgar wine in the palace every day, but she was still worried that there would be snakes. Chun Changzai broke into the palace without your permission every day, and you were just worried about Chun Changzai's safety."

Nian Shilan waited until Songzhi finished speaking before pretending to rebuke her, "Stop talking! I'm talking to the Emperor, what does it have to do with you?"

When Songzhi heard what Nian Shilan said, she also knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was wrong."

The emperor knew how much Nian Shilan loved Songzhi, so he did not blame her. He just said calmly, "Get up."

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Nian Shilan and said, "Okay, my beloved concubine, Songzhi didn't say anything excessive, so don't get angry."

Nian Shilan looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes, "I know that the emperor loves Concubine Chun, and that is why I don't want Concubine Chun to come in and out of Changle Palace often. I am worried that if Concubine Chun gets hurt in Changle Palace, the emperor will be worried and angry."

When the emperor heard what Nian Shilan said, he tapped her nose and said angrily and amusedly, "You are the most heartless girl. I love you so much, and you still say I am partial."

Nian Shilan hummed softly and said nothing.

At this time, Su Peisheng hurried into the palace, "Your Majesty, it's bad, Concubine Chun fell to the ground just after leaving Changle Palace."

When the emperor heard Su Peisheng's words, before he could open his mouth, he saw Nian Shilan standing up in surprise and asking, "Eunuch Su, how is Concubine Chun?"

The emperor looked at Nian Shilan, whose face was filled with anxiety and worry, and quickly comforted her: "My beloved concubine, don't worry, be careful not to hurt the dragon fetus in your belly."

Then he looked at Su Peisheng again, with a hint of rebuke in his eyes, and said, "Chun Changzai fell and got hurt, why did you go to find the imperial physician instead of me?"

Nian Shilan then spoke up to plead for Su Peisheng, "Your Majesty, since Eunuch Su came to talk to you, I believe the matter must be very difficult. Eunuch Su has been serving Your Majesty for many years and has always been a cautious and proper person."

When the emperor heard what Nian Shilan said, his rationality, which had just been lost due to his worry about Nian Shilan's health, gradually returned, and he said, "I'll go and take a look."

Nian Shilan did not stay in the palace, but followed the emperor out to check the situation.

At this time, Fang Chunyi was slumped at the gate of Changle Palace, with blood flowing from his lower body.

Nian Shilan was somewhat surprised. Was Fang Chunyi really desperate enough to resort to such a lame trick to deal with her?

Nian Shilan then said in a voice that sounded a little hoarse due to excessive anxiety: "Hurry up and go to the Imperial Hospital to summon the imperial physicians, and invite all the imperial physicians who can be invited to Changle Palace."

Then he looked at Songzhi, Lingzhi and the others and ordered, "Move Concubine Chun carefully and let her wait for the imperial physician in this palace."

At this time, the emperor ordered calmly: "Just move her to the main hall, don't go to the bedroom, so as not to offend the imperial concubine."

Fang Chunyi's face turned pale due to the severe pain. She was sweating profusely. She shivered slightly and murmured, "Child..."

The emperor seemed not to hear what Fang Chunyi said, and he still stood there with no expression on his face. After Fang Chunyi was moved into the main hall, Nian Shilan asked her personal maid, "What happened just now?"

Fang Chunyi's personal maid sobbed and said, "To answer the Imperial Noble Consort, I don't know. I helped the young lady to the gate of Changle Palace, and suddenly my feet slipped, and I fell on the threshold with the young lady."

Nian Shilan looked at Fang Chunyi's personal maid intently, "Did the two of you slip at the same time? If the entrance to my palace is really that slippery, how did you get in safely?"

Fang Chunyi's personal maid quickly knelt down and said, "My lady, I did not lie. Everything I said is true."

Nian Shilan sneered and ordered, "Zhou Ninghai, go to the palace gate to see if there is any problem."

At this time, the emperor also said in a calm voice: "Su Peisheng, go and take a look with Zhou Ninghai."
