The life of a man on the road of film and television
Chapter 171 Zhen Huan 47
"How can the Queen make me angry?"
It was not until the two of them entered the palace that Concubine Hua wiped her tears, looked Nian Gengyao up and down, and after making sure that the other person looked fine, she forced a smile on her face.
"Shilan just lost her composure because she hadn't seen her brother for a long time and was worried about his foot disease."
After hearing his sister's caring words, Nian Gengyao calmed down a little. He took two deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart before speaking.
"Don't you know my ability? As long as I can go to the battlefield, I will be your strongest shield."
Although Nian Gengyao wanted to wipe away Hua Fei's tears like he did when they were children, he knew that there was a huge gap in their status as siblings and he could not do that.
Nian Gengyao turned around and sighed, and when he raised his eyes again, his sight met Princess Shuya's face which looked very much like Nian Shilan. Seeing this, Nian Gengyao's heart softened, and he reached out and took Shuya from Songzhi.
It was also strange that Shuya, who was usually a little spoiled, did not cry or make a fuss when she was in Nian Gengyao's arms, but kept staring at Nian Gengyao with her big round eyes.
"It seems Shuya likes her uncle very much."
Seeing her daughter and brother being so harmonious together, Nian Shilan felt a little relieved from the depression that Shen Zhen had caused her in recent days.
"They say nephews resemble their uncles. Our Shuya is certainly not afraid of me, her uncle."
At this moment, Nian Gengyao could be said to have put all his energy, which had prevented him from comforting Concubine Hua, into Shuya.
For a moment, the brother and sister forgot all their troubles and focused on teasing Shuya. Shuya also cooperated and giggled.
It was not until she yawned that Concubine Hua realized that a long time had passed.
It was obvious that Nian Gengyao had finally come to his senses. He put Shuya back into Songzhi's arms and asked Concubine Hua seriously.
"I just wanted to ask you, but what injustice did the Queen cause you to suffer in the harem?"
This time, everyone around him was his own people, and Nian Gengyao finally couldn't help but speak again.
"The queen is no longer useful, what can she do to me?"
Hua Fei sighed and suddenly seemed to remember something before speaking through gritted teeth.
"It was the Emperor's new concubine Wan who was trying to sow discord and was always against me. Because of her, the Emperor stripped me of my authority to assist the six palaces, and it has not been restored to this day."
At this moment, Concubine Hua finally took off her disguise, looking like a little sister who needed her brother's protection.
And the Concubine Wan Zhen Huan she mentioned, yes, she was favored again. The news brought by the doll was that before, by the pond in the Imperial Garden, Zhen Huan danced her way into the emperor's heart, and on the same day she was restored to Concubine Wan, and is still favored until now.
"How dare a mere eunuch offend his superiors!"
Hearing his sister's complaints, Nian Gengyao glared at her with his fierce eyes, and the aura of years of fighting on the battlefield emanated from her, scaring the palace maids behind him so much that they trembled with fear.
"The emperor dotes on her, so what can I do? I heard that because of her favor, her father is also quite favored by the emperor."
"Oh? What's your name?"
Speaking of this, the brother and sister looked at each other and understood each other's intentions.
"Zhen Yuan Dao"
"Okay, if his daughter is against you, don't blame me for being against him."
Nian Gengyao sneered. All the officials in the court had some leverage over others. If anyone dared to bully his sister, it would depend on whether he could withstand his anger.
"Fortunately, my brother still protects me, otherwise, I would have suffered so much injustice."
After getting Nian Gengyao's assurance, Concubine Hua finally had a sincere smile on her face, and shook Nian Gengyao's sleeve with her hand like she did when she was a child.
"You are so hypocritical. What are you afraid of when your brother is here with you?"
Seeing that his sister finally smiled, Nian Gengyao felt a lot better.
"Okay, it's getting late today, I'll take you there."
Although the emperor allowed the two to meet, the rules stated that they could not stay together for too long.
"Um"
When Concubine Hua heard that Nian Gengyao was leaving, and thought that she didn't know when they would meet again, her eyes were filled with tears.
But in order not to worry Nian Gengyao, she finally held back her tears and faced her brother with a smile.
Once they entered the palace and enjoyed wealth and splendor, they would lose a lot of things. Even though the brother and sister were reluctant to leave, they had no choice but to get up and go out.
The two chatted as they walked slowly towards the Yiku Palace, but the entrance to the inner palace was there, so no matter how slowly they walked, they had to part ways here.
Concubine Hua turned around first and got on the sedan chair while crying, while Nian Gengyao stood there without moving. Only after Concubine Hua, who kept looking back every few steps, disappeared in the palace alley did he look deeply in that direction and turned away.
Because Nian Gengyao returned to the court with a great victory this time, anyone who was not seeking death would know that this was not a good time to go against Concubine Hua.
So for a period of time afterwards, all the people in the harem who had grudges against Concubine Hua, without any prior agreement, all temporarily behaved themselves.
In Jingren Palace, after listening to Jianqiu's report, the Queen wrote another long character and sat down on the chair at the back, muttering to herself.
"Jianqiu, why is the weather getting so cold?"
The queen's mind is in a mess now. Why, why do they want to snatch her away?
My sister is like this, and so is Concubine Hua. The Emperor was clearly already wary of Nian Shilan at that time, so why did he change?
She was allowed to bear children, was made a concubine, and even given the power to assist in managing the six palaces. Then what was the point of her being the queen?
Although Jianqiu could see that the queen was not in the right mind, she obviously did not understand what the queen meant.
"My lady, how about I buy you some clothes?"
"It's cold, what's the point of wearing more clothes?"
The Queen had no hope in Jianqiu's stupidity after living with her for so many years, but she just felt more tired.
In such a huge harem, there is no one who can even talk to her.
The Queen was still in deep thought, but Jianqiu continued to speak.
"These days, the Emperor has been staying with Concubine Hua, Concubine Fang and Concubine Wan in the harem, and has never even set foot in Jingren Palace. Your Majesty, you have to think of a solution."
Her words were like a sharp knife stabbing into the queen's heart. The queen glanced at Jianqiu with a very ugly expression.
But thinking that there was really no one to replace her, the queen finally endured it and could only close her eyes. She really couldn't bear to look at this stupid man any longer.
When she opened her eyes again, she just looked out the window, not knowing what she was thinking. It was a long while before she spoke again.
"This Jingren Palace has always been cold. It only warms up when the Emperor comes. When the Emperor gives this Jingren Palace to those bitches, then this Jingren Palace will be truly warm."
Unfortunately, the queen's voice was too soft, and even Jianqiu, who was closest to her, couldn't hear clearly what she said.
The palace fell silent. After about a cup of tea, the queen looked back again, with ambition rising again in her eyes.
