She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 104: Legend of Zhen Huan 49

Cao Qinmo shook her head in her heart when she saw this. Lipin was also a concubine, and Nian Shilan was no longer in charge of palace affairs. The two of them could be said to be on an equal footing. In fact, Lipin should have been half a level higher than Nian Shilan in terms of title, but Lipin was completely unaware of it, or she believed that Nian Shilan would be able to easily regain her position later.

But even though Nian Shilan is still a concubine now, in Cao Qinmo's heart, she has actually been gone for a long time.

After Nian Shilan was imprisoned, the emperor obviously increased his control over the harem. Not to mention other things during this period, the servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not show off their power. No one heard of any incidents of bullying the palace maids, or at least no incidents occurred. Smart people could see that the situation in the palace had changed.

In other words, fools like Lipin and arrogant people like Nian Shilan are still looking at the harem with the eyes of the past.

Cao Qinmo already knew that nothing would happen to her today. After all, she would not forget what happened to Nian Shilan so quickly.

As expected, nothing happened to me.

Nian Shilan was very angry when she saw the two people's completely different reactions, but so what? A concubine in the palace could not punish concubines of other status privately.

In the past, the emperor didn't care, and even took the lead in showing favoritism to Nian Shilan. This also encouraged Nian Shilan's arrogance. Anyway, he would not be punished, so he could do whatever he wanted.

But Yinzhen would not do that now. As long as the emperor's attitude changes, the people in the harem will definitely follow the emperor's direction, and Nian Shilan is naturally no exception.

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

Before Cao Qinmo and Lipin walked out, they heard a noise in the room, accompanied by the crisp sound of porcelain, the angry cursing of Nian Shilan, and even the persuasive voices of Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai. It was extremely lively.

Cao Qinmo and Lipin looked at each other, then both quickened their pace and left this place of trouble.

Fu Cha Xinyun asked Yutong and others to clean up the side hall early in the morning and waited for Jueluo to come in.

As soon as Jueluo arrived at the Yanx Palace, she saw her daughter standing at the palace gate to greet her. She was so scared that she was about to run over, but the surrounding environment made her sober up all of a sudden. This was the palace, and no matter how anxious Jueluo was, she slowed down at this moment.

Not only that, she also knelt down to Fucha Xinyun and said, "Greetings to Her Majesty Zhaopin."

Fu Cha Xinyun was happy that her mother came over, but she didn't expect that her mother would attack her first. Fu Cha Xinyun was a little angry, but when she saw the expressions of the people around her taking it for granted, she realized that this was the situation in the world at the moment and no one could avoid it.

Fu Cha Xinyun forced a smile and said, "No need to be polite."

Fortunately, Xiao Mingzi and others knew Jueluo's identity. After Jueluo stood up, they immediately took the things from her maid.

After welcoming Jueluo into Yilan Palace, Fucha Xinyun relaxed and said, "Mother, are you okay on your journey here? How are father and younger brother?"

Jueluo looked at the decoration of the Yanx Palace and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that her daughter was still favored.

"They are fine. Akdon knew I was coming in, so he asked me to bring you a gift. I'll give it to you later."

Fu Cha Xinyun nodded excitedly, "Mother, don't worry, you should rest first, and we can talk after you have rested well."

Fu Cha Xinyun asked Yulan to take Jueluo and her maid Xingyu to a side hall for settlement. At noon, Yinzhen even rewarded Fu Cha Xinyun with several imperial meals to show her respect.

At this time, Nian Shilan was eating lunch without any appetite, looking towards the front court with hope, hoping that the emperor would come to see her on the first day she was released.

Song Zhi, who was standing by, looked at the empress with some pity, "Empress, the emperor is probably still dealing with government affairs at this time, and he definitely has no time to come. You might as well take this opportunity to have a good rest, so that you can cheer up and serve the emperor in the evening."

Nian Shilan was immediately happy when she heard this. "Yes, the emperor is so diligent, he must be busy now. In the past, he would only come to Yikun Palace at night. But I don't know if the emperor had lunch?"

Seeing that the queen finally calmed down and started to worry about the emperor's lunch, Songzhi quickly stopped her, "Your Majesty, the emperor has Eunuch Su to remind him. He must have used it by now. Don't worry. The emperor might come when you wake up."

After being comforted by Songzhi, Nian Shilan's mood began to improve and she was looking forward to the emperor's arrival in the evening.

After Jueluo was settled, she rested for a while and then chatted with Fucha Xinyun about family matters.

"Here, this is the storybook that Akdun brought you, as well as some new things from outside the palace. You used to like reading these things, and your father and I were worried that you would change your mind and really believe those stories about poor scholars and official daughters. Fortunately, you understood it from beginning to end, otherwise I would not dare to bring this storybook in."

"Mother, you think too much. I'm just killing time. Just like what's written in this storybook, the young lady eloped with the scholar with the help of a maid. I've never seen such a courageous maid since I was a child. What's more, we are all using a family child. If she does something wrong and involves other people in the family, even if she wants to, her family won't dare to do it."

"Besides, eloping without a matchmaker means being a concubine. How can I be so careless as to leave my good life as a young lady and go to dig wild vegetables?"

Fu Cha Xinyun also found it funny when reading the storybooks. She was accustomed to the information-rich modern society, but in the Qing Dynasty she could only stay at home all day. Even if she occasionally attended some gatherings of young ladies from wealthy families, it was not very fun. So she went to her father's study and flipped through some miscellaneous books, and discovered the storybooks by the way.

From then on, she couldn't stop herself. She would read the storybooks whenever she was bored. For a while, her father was worried that these storybooks had affected her temperament.

Just like Jueluo forbade her to read storybooks, it was my younger brother Akdun who secretly brought them back for her from outside.

Although the plot is obviously fake, isn't this just another way of watching TV? They are all watching and complaining at the same time, the only difference is that you can't see the characters, which doesn't matter to Fu Cha Xinyun, because paper people are sometimes more attractive than real people.

Fu Cha Xinyun looked at the pile of gadgets again, feeling a little touched and a little amused, "Brother, have you visited so many places? Did you pack up all the things from the stores?"

"Of course not. He said that you are not like at home in the palace, and he can bring you something when he goes out. But when he heard that I was going to the palace to take care of you, he ran out of the house quickly and couldn't be stopped even if I called him."
