The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Chapter 23 Bare your heart

This time it was Zhen Huan's turn to be stunned. Although most things were highly consistent, Zhen Huan still held on to a glimmer of hope.

Zhen Huan paused for a while, and finally said: "Then all this..."

Zhen Huan didn't continue speaking, but Nian Shilan understood what she meant.

"Everything you said happened in my previous life. After I committed suicide by hitting my head against the wall in the cold palace, I became a wandering soul and have been wandering in the Forbidden City. I saw everything that happened. Suddenly one day I woke up and found myself sleeping on the bed. I was reborn." Nian Shilan explained. From the time she was reborn until now, she had never told anyone about this matter. After all, she felt it was too bizarre until Zhen Huan asked her today.

Even if she doesn't admit it, most of what happens in the future will be consistent. If I want to be on good terms with her, there is no need to hide it and erode each other's trust.

Zhen Huan took a moment to calm down, and finally asked, "In your previous life, did you really frame Sister Mei for a fake pregnancy in order to get rid of me?"

Nian Shilan decisively admitted, "Yes, I did do that in my previous life."

I did it, and if Zhen Huan resented me for it and didn't want to be friends with me, Nian Shilan was willing to pay for her mistake.

Seeing Nian Shilan being so frank and honest, Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel a little fond of her. She smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will hate you for this?"

Nian Shilan said very seriously: "If you blame me for this, I am willing to pay for my mistake. But...if you hinder me from saving the Nian family, then I will never show mercy to you."

Zhen Huan laughed when she heard this, and said playfully and cutely, "Your Majesty is so majestic. From now on, I will have no choice but to follow your lead."

Zhen Huan actually thought a lot during this period. Even though Nian Shilan pressed on her and Mei Zhuang in the dream, she was just an infatuated lover. Everything should be blamed on the emperor, who carefully planned every step to make the two of them kill each other and become pawns. After the death of Concubine Hua in the dream, Zhen Huan only felt regret for her, not hatred.

Nian Shilan was stunned when she heard Zhen Huan's words. She asked in disbelief, "I treated you like that in my previous life, and you don't hate me?"

Zhen Huan shook her head. "You are just one of the many poor people in the harem who adore the emperor. I don't blame you. At least you are better than the queen. You never harm children or pregnant women."

When Nian Shilan heard what Zhen Huan said, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Then, Your Majesty, what are your plans for the future?" Zhen Huan asked with concern.

Nian Shilan smiled bitterly, "What else can I plan? I just want to do my best to protect the Quan family and not repeat the mistakes of the previous life."

When Zhen Huan heard what Nian Shilan said, she also thought of her own dream of her family falling into poverty, so she smiled at Nian Shilan. "Let's save our family together."

When Nian Shilan thought about how she became a wandering soul and saw that Zhen Huan's father, mother, and sister had also been exiled to Ningguta, she understood what Zhen Huan meant.

"Okay, let's go together." Nian Shilan smiled brightly, and Zhen Huan couldn't help but stare at her in a daze.

No one knew what the two of them talked about that night except themselves. But everyone only saw that the next morning, Wan Changzai also went to Jingren Palace to pay her respects to the Empress.

"Your humble concubine pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty be well and healthy." All the concubines saluted the Queen together.

"Sisters, please stand up," said the Queen.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Zhen Huan again and said with a smile: "Concubine Wan is here today, is she feeling better?"

Zhen Huan listened to the Queen's concerned words, lowered her head, and said in an overwhelmed manner: "Thank you for your concern, my concubine is feeling much better now."

When the Queen heard what Zhen Huan said, she said happily, "In that case, I will ask the people in the Jingshifang to hang up your green card at night, and you can prepare to sleep with me."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan refused and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your kindness. As for serving you in bed, I will have to wait a while longer."

Then he looked as if he couldn't say anything and his face turned red with shame.

Seeing this, the Queen asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with you, Concubine Wan? Why can't you sleep with me? You're not fully recovered yet?"

Zhen Huan had no choice but to whisper, "I am fine, it's just... my period has come."

The queen was relieved after hearing this and said with a smile: "You are still a little girl. The harem is full of sisters, there is nothing to be ashamed of."

"Yes, if you ask me, this Concubine Wan is really pretentious. If the emperor saw her in this posture, he would definitely feel pity for her."

Concubine Qi was one of the few old people in the mansion who had seen Empress Chun Yuan. She also knew the position of Empress Chun Yuan in the emperor's heart, so from the moment she met Zhen Huan, she realized that Zhen Huan would be her biggest threat, so she couldn't wait to mock Zhen Huan when she saw her.

After all, if Zhen Huan becomes favored, well-behaved and obedient, and is willing to join the Queen's camp, then he and the Third Prince will really be useless.

Although Nian Shilan cannot speak for Zhen Huan in public for fear of attracting the attention of the Emperor and the Empress, this does not affect her from criticizing Concubine Qi. Everyone in the palace knows that apart from the Empress, the person she despises the most is Concubine Qi.

So Nian Shilan said sarcastically: "Oh, Concubine Qi didn't say anything. I haven't noticed it yet. Concubine Qi is dressed very uniquely today."

Concubine Qi was wearing a light pink silk dress with lifelike plum blossoms embroidered on it. She had a modified "two-bun" hairstyle on her head, and the pink agate was in the middle of her hairpin. If you only look at the clothes and accessories, without looking at Concubine Qi's face, she is very bright and beautiful.

When Concubine Qi, that vase, heard Nian Shilan's words, she thought that she was really praising her dress, and said happily and boastfully: "Your Majesty likes me to wear pink clothes the most." After saying that, she shyly covered her face.

Looking at Nian Shilan, she rolled her eyes and sneered at what Qipin said. "Pink and tender, how old are you now?"

After saying that, I didn't bother to look at her anymore. It was really annoying to see such an unlucky person right under my nose so early in the morning.
