To be honest, no matter how cruel Nian Shilan was to Pang Ju's other women, she really cared about Pang Ju. Not only did she personally serve Pang Ju with food and clothes, but she also got up early the next morning to cook in the small kitchen and personally designed the arrangement of the dishes. If Pang Ju ate a little more of a dish yesterday, she would put that dish in front of Pang Ju today.

When Fat Ju was An Lingrong, he hated Nian Shilan so much that even though he knew that practicing witchcraft was a taboo in the palace, he still couldn't help but make a voodoo doll for her. But when he became Fat Ju, he enjoyed it all.

Who doesn’t like to be treated wholeheartedly and loved with all their heart?

But Nian Shilan still needs to change her temper.

Fat Ju stayed at Nian Shilan's place for several nights in a row. Concubine Hua was very happy. Fat Ju felt that he could make her even happier: "If you can get along well with the queen for the next six months, and don't play tricks on others, I will promote you to imperial concubine at the end of the year."

The light in Nian Shilan's eyes suddenly flashed: "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

Then, as if she had realized something, she hurriedly tried to make up for it: "What does your Majesty mean by that? When have I not gotten along well with the Empress? I have always been fair to the other sisters below me and have never teased anyone."

Fat Ju jokingly hugged Nian Shilan to his chest and scratched her nose affectionately, "How dare you say such a dishonest thing."

Hua Fei acted like a spoiled child: "Your Majesty~"

Fat Ju took the initiative to cover her up with his hand, and his expression became more serious: "Okay, Shilan, I don't want to lie to you. You are from the Han Army Banner. With your background, I am determined not to give you the position of Queen. I have been attentive to the Queen over the years, and I have been kind to everyone in the harem. She has not done anything wrong, so I will not depose her."

When Pangju said this, Nian Shilan's eyes were already filled with tears. She wanted to break free from Pangju's arms, turn over and face the wall to calm down, but Pangju didn't let her.

He forcefully pressed Nian Shilan under him, and as their eyes met, Fat Ju told him his plan: "Whether it's Fuzi or anyone else, I will pretend that I don't know about the things you did in the past. I also helped you deal with Concubine Duan, who you didn't like. I don't expect you to get along with the Queen like your sisters, but I hope you will be more respectful to the Queen in the future, that's all.

I don’t necessarily want you to hold back your temper and make yourself miserable. If you want to vent your anger on Concubine Shen and Concubine Wan, I will definitely stand by you.”

That’s right, Pangju gave Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan to Nian Shilan as free punching bags without any psychological burden.

After hearing this, Concubine Hua felt that she was fine again. Qi Yuebin passed away a few days ago, and she thought that the person who had caused her trouble had died of illness. She didn't expect that the emperor was venting his anger for her and dealt with her personally. No wonder the emperor later had Qi Yuebin's body collected hastily and didn't even give her the title of a noble.

The Emperor also used his current concubines Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan to vent his anger on him. Isn't that just being nicer to the Queen?

Nian Shilan felt that if the emperor could really do what he said, she could do it too.

"Doesn't the Emperor like Concubine Shen and Concubine Wan very much? Would the Emperor be willing to give them to me to torture them?" Why did Nian Shilan find it so unreal?

Fat Orange nodded without hesitation: "People's hearts are always biased, and I am no exception. I understand that it is a bit unfair for you to be relegated to the position of concubine. You can't change your temper in a short time. In order to prevent you from getting angry and causing yourself harm, I have no regrets."

After appeasing Concubine Hua, Pangju was delighted to see Shen Meiyu and Zhen Huan being humiliated without having to do anything himself.

Nian Shilan was also very satisfied. Although the emperor told her seriously and clearly that he would never favor her exclusively and would never give her the position of queen, the emperor also said that as long as she stopped acting too much, was more respectful to the queen and kinder to others, he could still give her the position of imperial concubine.

Fat Ju drew a path for Nian Shilan. What she could do, what she couldn't do, what he would give her, and what Nian Shilan absolutely couldn't touch, all were made clear to her that night.

Fat Ju no longer gave Nian Shilan any illusions. With the restraints in place, Nian Shilan actually felt more at ease.

After that, it’s time to make some little people~

The next day, Concubine Hua went to Jingren Palace to pay her respects with a happy face, and this time she was not late, which was a rare occasion.

The Emperor had been turning over Concubine Hua's name for several days in a row. Yixiu thought that Concubine Hua would take advantage of her favor and say something boastful like "The Emperor stayed at my place yesterday and told me not to work too hard", or she would provoke her, but strangely, she didn't do that this time.

Originally, Concubine Hua wanted to say something out of habit, but when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she suddenly remembered the heart-to-heart talk with the emperor yesterday. She touched the tassels on her temples and, for the first time ever, praised the tea in Jingren Palace.

The emperor said that he did not ask her to serve the queen diligently, as it was unrealistic. He was also reluctant to suffer this grievance, but he had to save face.

Yixiu couldn't believe her ears. Is there ever a day when Nian Shilan would praise her Jingren Palace?

But then she figured it out - this must be Nian Shilan's trick. Nian Shilan must be trying to make something big this time!

Yixiu then sat up straight and put her utmost attention into socializing with Nian Shilan.
