For the next two months, Yan Wan spent all her time in Changchun Palace.

She learned a lot in her previous life, but she learned all those things just to win favor.

Only when I was with Jing Jue and the Queen did I truly experience the joy of learning for the first time in my two lifetimes.

It was a pure feeling of improving her knowledge and horizons, which made her immerse herself in it and work tirelessly.

She was extremely smart, and she understood things very quickly. She was also very good at providing emotional value to the teacher naturally. In addition, she had tried very hard to please Jing Jing in her previous life, so it was easy for the little girl to treat her as her own.

Not only did Yan Wan learn by herself, she also quietly encouraged Jing Jue to learn more and watch more, so that she would not find herself standing with Ruyi and Hai Lan for no reason later.

In her previous life, she plotted to murder the royal heir, and Jing Jue turned around and stabbed her in the back for her half-sister. She had nothing to say.

In this life, knowing that Hailan was the most likely murderer of Yongcong, she would never agree with Jingjue's decision.

"Princess, I understand what you mean, but how do I do it specifically? How can I be neither humble nor overbearing? I'm afraid that if I say less, I'll be cowardly, and if I say more, I'll be arrogant."

Jing Jing could easily explain the meaning of the text, but in practice... she didn't even know how to use the word "humility" in her life.

But she didn't want to show her weakness in front of Yan Wan, so she pretended to be calm and said, "There is so much knowledge involved here, I need to sort it out before I teach you, please wait a moment."

Empress Fucha walked up to the two of them and said gently, "The emperor knows the most. Why don't Wanwan and Jingyu go ask the emperor? And tell mother when you come back."

Jing Jing's eyes lit up. Yes! The Emperor must know the most!

However, Yan Wan could tell that the Empress wanted her and Jing Jue to meet the Emperor more often.

They only developed some affection for each other when they first met. The more they met, the more the emperor's love for teaching was ignited. He was very good to her and Jing Jue in the future.

She felt sour and soft in her heart. Empress Fucha touched her hair and said, "Go."

The two of them went to the Yangxin Palace together. As soon as they followed Jinzhong in, they heard the voices of Ruyi and Hailan.

Ruyi said, "There have been rumors in the palace recently. I didn't believe them at first, but after hearing them so many times, I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart. Prince Daomin was originally well, but he suddenly became seriously ill and died. There might be a reason for that."

Hai Lan said sadly: "Everyone knows that the child is sick and can't be moved. Lingpin has never been a mother. She only wanted to win favor and acted recklessly. In the end, she murdered the prince... I really can't imagine it. If everyone is like her, I and other mothers..."

Jinzhong hurriedly stopped Jingjue and said, "Oh, this is unfortunate, Princess, would you please…"

Jing Jing was a proud person to begin with, and she relied on her status as a legitimate princess, so she never took concubines other than her mother seriously. In addition, the topic they were talking about was really sensitive, so she scolded, "Back off!"

She strode into the main hall, bowed to Hongli first, and then glared at Ruyi and Hailan: "What are you talking about? What about Lingpin's mischief that harmed Yongcong?"

Ruyi was embarrassed: "These are all rumors, they have not been confirmed yet, Princess, please don't be angry with Lingpin for now."

Hai Lan frowned and said, "Sister is kind and compassionate, but I cannot bear to see some people stepping on the prince to ascend to the throne..."

"Snapped!"

A slap hit Hai Lan hard in the face, which not only shocked Hai Lan, but also shocked Ruyi and Hongli.

Yan Wan was also stunned.

Jinzhong lowered his voice and said, "I just sent someone to Changchun Palace."

Yanwan immediately understood that today was the date for the plan to be implemented.

Recently, there have been rumors in the palace that Prince Daomin did not have to die, and it was because Wei Yanwan carried the prince to the door that he caught a cold and died.

The Empress had heard these rumors a long time ago, but she had never believed them. Now that Jinzhong had reported them to her, she knew that Ruyi and Hailan had come to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity to harm her, so she specifically called her and Jingjue over.

Yanwan raised her white fingertips and rubbed the corners of her eyes until they turned red. She looked at Jinzhong and weakly held onto the door frame.

Ruyi exclaimed in the hall: "Princess, what are you doing?"

Hongli's eyebrows jumped: "Jing Jing."

Jing Jue's eyes were red. "Father Emperor, Yong Cong has just passed away. Everyone is afraid to mention him and hurt the Empress Dowager's heart, which will make her depressed again. Why are these two concubines talking about Yong Cong all the time?"

Hongli's anger subsided slightly. Seeing his daughter was so small and thin, he said with pity, "I know. I won't let these things dirty the Queen's ears."

Ruyi's eyes turned red.

The emperor used the word "dirty". Doesn't that mean he thinks what she just said is filthy?

Just now the princess said she was a concubine, but the emperor was not angry at all. Has he forgotten the promise he made?

Her eyes were filled with tears, and she whispered, "Your Majesty, I just heard rumors in the palace, and I don't want the Queen to be deceived, so I..."

Jing Jue said angrily: "There are rumors in the palace, why don't you quell them? Why don't you check whether someone is maliciously slandering Concubine Ling? Why were there no rumors when my mother was in charge of the harem? Are you trying to say that you are..."

Hongli said in a deep voice: "Jing Jing!"

At the door, Jinzhong exclaimed at the perfect moment: "Empress Lingpin!"

Jing Jing's face changed slightly, and she pointed at Hai Lan and said, "Nonsense, you idiot who is used to slandering others. If anything happens to Lingpin, this princess will tear your mouth apart!"

She hurried out and saw Yanwan's face was pale, with one hand holding the wall. If Jinzhong hadn't asked two young palace maids to support her, she would have fallen to the ground.

Jing Jing felt distressed and angry: "You are such a dullard! I saw you were smart when we were studying, why don't you know how to defend yourself now? You just let it be..."

Yan Wan hurriedly stretched out her hand to her, trembling: "Princess, that's your stepmother!"

Her voice was not loud, but her face was full of worry: "The Queen knows that you have lost your sense of proportion, and she is worried again."

Jingjue thought about the Empress Dowager's earnest teachings over the past few days, and finally suppressed the arrogance in his heart. He reached out to support her and took her to the house:

"Father, look at Yan Wan! This hero who risked his life for you and the Empress Dowager has become so thin that only a piece of skin is left. You are still afraid that your daughter will get angry and cause trouble, and make you angry.

Look at some of the troublemakers. Yongcong just passed away, and she ate a lot of food, but she is still slandering others! If you really want to punish the meritorious officials and let the criminals enjoy happiness, what kind of announcement is there in this world?"

Hongli had already looked at Yanwan.

He hasn't seen Yan Wan for quite some time.

The queen was always in poor health and cried every day. He went there several times, but couldn't stand the atmosphere in Changchun Palace, so he just told his servants to take good care of her.

After Yan Wan recovered, she often went to Changchun Palace. He was reluctant to go there, and thinking that Yan Wan could take good care of his wife, he never summoned her.

Now, seeing how thin this girl is, it is shocking to say the least. I can honestly say, "Did someone deduct your food?"

Yanwan was petite to begin with, and now she was so thin that her clothes looked empty. Her little face was so pale that it looked bloodless, all supported by rouge. But perhaps because she was afraid of worrying people, she applied too much rouge, which did not match her stature. You could tell the difference if you looked closely.

Look at Hailan again...

Hailan's face has indeed become several circles rounder.

Comparing the two, we can see that Yanwan was grief-stricken every day and couldn't eat, while Hailan was in a good mood and had a greatly increased appetite.

Thinking about what Hai Lan said today, and looking at her head full of fine and fresh pearls and jade, and the hair of Ruyi who was with her... she even had a bright red flower on her head!

Hongli didn't want to get angry with his childhood sweetheart, so all his anger was directed at Hailan.

Can a woman who is so happy about the death of her legitimate son that she eats a few more bowls of rice every day really empathize with the queen? I'm afraid she will only be excited secretly, thinking that her son has a chance to ascend the throne? !
