Chapter 228: Cold-blooded and Domineering Emperor Without Heir x Delicate and Pregnant Concubine 20

Shen Nian walked slowly along the way, and when he was about to enter Huayang Palace, he met Concubine De who came to pay her respects outside the palace gate.

The way Defei walked was different from other concubines. She walked very fast and with steady steps. Just by looking at her pace, one could see her former elegance.

"Sister Qingpin is here today, too."

When Concubine De saw her, she greeted her in a very familiar way. Her beautiful eyes raised slightly and she smiled.

Shen Nian frowned calmly. In an instant, he smiled again and bowed to Concubine De.

"I met my sister."

The woman's smile was like a beautiful rose blooming on her cheeks, and her beautiful eyes were filled with smiles.

When she stood up, her pearl rings touched each other, and the thin silver tassels hanging from her hair cast a soft halo.

Your Majesty is truly lucky to be born with such a beauty.

Although Defei was not convinced in her heart, she did not show it on her face.

"It is fate that I meet you, sister. Please come in with me."

Since Concubine De had said so, there was no reason for Shen Nian to refuse.

She nodded and entered Huayang Palace with Concubine De.

In Huayang Palace, the Queen Mother came out fully dressed. She was wearing a red Sichuan brocade skirt with a gold-embellished phoenix-patterned gauze on the outside. The skirt was embroidered with large auspicious clouds, showing her noble elegance.

She smiled and sat at the top, while the other concubines bowed and greeted her.

"The Queen is in great health."

The Queen raised her hand, and all the concubines stood up and sat down. The Queen did not say anything, and the concubines also remained silent. For a moment, the palace was somewhat quiet.

Concubine Li was frightened to death and refused to leave her palace. Concubine Shu was killed by Cheng Qing's sword.

Without the verbal battles between the two of them, the palace became much more peaceful for a while.

If things are too peaceful, it will be boring. And as women in the harem, they are often best at having fun.

"Is Qingpin here today?"

After the Queen chatted with Concubine De for a while, she seemed to think of Shen Nian inadvertently.

Concubine De smiled and looked at Shen Nian, "Sister Qingpin has been in the palace for a short time. Last time, the Queen only saw you from a distance in Yongning Palace. I guess it was too hasty. Now I want to take a closer look."

Defei's words were to remind Shen Nian that since you didn't come to pay your respects last time, the Queen was probably going to make you suffer.

But once Concubine De said this, it became clear that the Queen wanted to meet Shen Nian. In this way, the Queen no longer wanted to be too harsh on her in public.

The Queen placed her hands on the sandalwood armrests, glanced at Concubine De, and said with a fake smile:

"It has been a month since Qingpin entered the palace. I am busy with palace affairs and cannot spare time to see Qingpin.

Pian Qingpin is also a busy person and has never come to my Huayang Palace in these days.

I finally came here today, and it is reasonable for me to meet him."

The queen raised her delicate head slightly, her eyes were warm yet sharp, the two completely different looks merged into one, without losing the meaning at all.

The queen's words were sharp but gentle, demonstrating her status as the mistress of the harem, second only to the emperor.

It also implies that Shen Nian does not know the rules and does not know how to respect his superiors.

Defei glanced at Shen Nian and frowned worriedly. Shen Nian was afraid that she could not withstand the words of the Queen.

After all, the new concubines entering the palace are afraid of the queen, which is completely out of instinct.

But who is Shen Nian?

She even dared to "bully" the emperor, let alone a queen.

Shen Nian stood up and walked into the hall with lotus steps.

The person in the palace lowered her feathery eyelashes like a fan, bowed slightly, and said to the queen, "Please don't blame me, Queen. I was not summoned by you a few days ago. I thought you didn't like me and didn't want to see me.

I know that my position is low, so I dare not take the initiative to ask for an audience, for fear of causing trouble to Your Majesty.

Now it seems that I misunderstood you, Your Majesty, and I am overjoyed. "

After hearing this, Concubine De reacted even faster than the previous empress. It was really amazing.

With just a few words, she rebutted what the queen had said earlier.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to come, but she is afraid that you, the queen, are not broad-minded enough.

The queen's golden armor was slightly lifted and she slid to gather the black hair beside her ears. A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, like a blooming poppy.

"Qingpin is such a clever talker, no wonder His Majesty likes you. Even I like you so much after hearing what she said.

In this case, you can stay here with me and have breakfast today."

After saying this, she looked around and spoke again.

"The rest of you can go back."

This means to leave Shen Nian alone.

De Fei stood up with the help of the hand, and said gently: "How about I be shameless today and have breakfast here, Your Majesty?"

The Queen doesn't like Shen Nian, and if she stays, it will be a waste of time. If she stays, she can protect her a little.

Not only Shen Nian, but even the Queen couldn't understand Concubine De's behavior.

Concubine De is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs, so why did she break the precedent when it came to Shen Nian?

The Queen stared at Concubine De with burning eyes, trying to see something from her.

Shen Nian lowered her head in deep thought. She and Concubine De had only met twice. Why did she protect herself so much?

What was the reason behind this? Shen Nian decided to ask Concubine De directly.

All signs from Concubine De indicate that she wants to be on good terms with me, so if I just ask her, she will definitely tell me.

The Queen took a long time to reply, "Maybe next time, Concubine De."

With just this one rejection, Concubine De wanted to fight for it, but she saw Shen Nian shook his head at her imperceptibly.

The queen was determined to punish her, and it would be useless for anyone to stay.

Defei had no choice but to give up, rushed up to the Queen Mother and bowed before retreating, but in her heart she was thinking about going to find His Majesty as soon as possible.

She had finally found such a palace concubine that she liked, and she couldn't let her fall into the hands of the Queen.

"Qingpin is really capable. She can even make Defei, who never likes to socialize with others, like you."

The queen glanced at Shen Nian and looked down upon her.

Shen Nian did not behave submissively like an ordinary concubine, she just replied calmly.

"It is my blessing to be liked by Sister Defei."
