She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Not only that, Fucha Xinyun really thought about it in her heart and found that she had not been bullied much since she entered the palace. Even if they disliked her, they would only say a few sour words at most, which was insignificant.

"The ladies are very nice to people."

Jueluo carefully observed Fucha Xinyun's expression and made sure that she was not comforting herself.

"That's good, that's good. I don't expect you to be favored. As long as you can be safe and sound, that's enough."

Fucha Xinyun knew that Jueluo was worried and comforted her, "Mother, don't worry. In a few months, I will ask for permission to let you come to the palace to take care of me. Then we can see each other every day."

Naturally, Jueluo knew this rule. In the later stages of a concubine's pregnancy, her parents' home could be allowed to come to the palace to take care of her for a period of time. Although it was called care, it was actually just to relieve the concubine's homesickness for her family.

But although this is the rule, not all concubines can have their family members enter the palace to take care of them. Only if you are favored will that be possible.

Therefore, in order to smoothly enter the palace to take care of her daughter, Jueluo earnestly advised: "Don't run around during this period, stay in the palace to recuperate, and don't make the emperor and empress unhappy."

Fu Cha Xinyun could not help but nod, "Mother, you don't know that this is the first time I've left the palace gate of Yanxi Palace since I became pregnant. I was afraid of encountering any danger, so I forced myself to stay in Yanxi Palace."

When Jueluo heard that her daughter was so obedient, she was extremely happy.

"It's good that you think this way. After you give birth to the child, you will have someone to rely on in the palace. Just hold it in for a few months and wait for your mother to come in."

While Fucha Xinyun and Jueluo were talking in private, Nian Shilan also met with his brother Nian Gengyao in the side hall. "Sister has been wronged during this period."

Although Nian Shilan was arrogant and domineering to others, she was very good to her family. Thinking that Nian Gengyao was still fighting outside, she couldn't bear to let her worry.

"Don't worry, brother. The emperor treats me very well. I was careless this time."

Although Nian Gengyao did not take any other actions after Concubine Nian was imprisoned, it was only because he was persuaded by his father. Otherwise, with Nian Gengyao's personality, he would definitely make trouble in front of the emperor.

He was helping the emperor to stabilize his rule, but the emperor turned around and imprisoned his own sister. How could he be happy?

"You are just a small concubine, what's the big deal? You are punished to reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors, it's ridiculous. The emperor really doesn't take our Nian family seriously."

Nian Shilan was not like Nian Gengyao. She was afraid of the emperor, especially after he suddenly left Yikun Palace and his momentum grew stronger.

"Brother, the Emperor's decision is not something you or I can control. This is the Imperial Palace, so you should be more restrained. Although I know you have no other ideas, you should still be careful not to be used by someone with ulterior motives."

The brother and sister chatted in the side hall as if no one was around, discussing what had happened during this period. However, they did not know that their conversation had already been recorded by the eunuchs in the second room, who were waiting to report it to the emperor.

But it's not the fault of the Nian brothers and sisters. Fatty Orange would never do these things before. It's just that after Yinzhen traveled through time, he wanted to understand what kind of person Nian Gengyao was in this world. In addition, he had already kept an eye on the harem, so he would pay more attention to ministers like Nian Gengyao.

Unlike Fu Cha Xinyun and Nian Shilan who arrived early, Zhen Huan arrived on time. It was not that she did not want to meet her family, but because she had to dance today, and in order to avoid the emperor waiting too long, she had to put on her makeup in advance and only had to wait a while to comb her hair and change her clothes.

Therefore, Zhen Huan only had time to say hello to her mother before the banquet began.

The dinner officially began. Since the emperor was entertaining the court officials in the first half, he would not come back until the second half. Seeing that the time was up, the queen stood up and led the concubines and the female relatives to toast the queen mother.

The emperor was not there in the first half, and Fucha Xinyun was worried that if something happened to her, no one would protect her, so she just followed the crowd and raised her glass, wondering in her heart if the handkerchief in her sleeve could handle the situation.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother suddenly said, "Zhaopin is pregnant and should not drink alcohol. Replace Zhaopin's wine with tea."

The Queen Mother's words focused everyone's attention in the hall on Fucha Xinyu. If looks could kill, Fucha Xinyu would have been pierced by thousands of arrows long ago.

Fucha Xinyun didn't expect that the Queen Mother was so concerned about her. No, to be precise, she was so concerned about her belly. But it was a good thing that the Queen Mother paid attention to her.

"Thank you very much, Queen Mother, for your grace!"

The Queen Mother waved her hand indifferently, "Get up, take good care of the dragon fetus, and tell me if there is anything."

Fucha Xinyun saluted respectfully, "Yes!"

Although the Queen did not intend to do anything to Zhaopin's belly at the New Year's Eve banquet, she did not want to see her being so carefree. Therefore, tonight was her conspiracy.

The queen didn't want to let people think that she was not doing a good job as a queen, so she immediately started to blame others, "Zhaopin, you are pregnant with the emperor's baby. The emperor has issued an order that you don't need to go out to pay respects. Although I know you like to be lively, it's so noisy tonight, and there are people everywhere. What if you get bumped into something?"

Fucha Xinyun listened to the Queen's gossip and said in her heart, "What a guy! Not to mention the imprisoned Nian Shilan, you even got the sick Concubine Duan out. Without the decree, how dare I, a small concubine Zhao, not attend? If I don't come out, what's waiting for me tonight is that Concubine Zhao is so arrogant that she dares not even come to the New Year's Eve banquet."

Now that I'm here, I've become the one who disregards the dragon baby in my belly for my own sake. You've said all the good and bad things about me.

But Fu Cha Xinyun is not Zhen Huan, and she will not suffer this loss.

"My queen, the New Year's Eve banquet is the palace's annual New Year banquet. All concubines must attend. I am grateful for the emperor's favor. Although I am pregnant, I dare not take advantage of the favor to be arrogant."

After Fucha Xinyun finished speaking, she thought about how hard it was for her to come here, and she couldn't just brush it off like that. "In order to avoid any accidents at this dinner, I walked here slowly from the Yanxi Palace an hour in advance, just to prevent the New Year's Eve banquet from being delayed because of me."

Fucha Xinyu explained the reason for her visit. The Queen did not think that she could be brought down like this, so she skipped the topic and did not say anything else.

The Queen Mother was very conflicted. She knew the Queen's old habit and didn't want her to harm her offspring. But at this time, Fucha Xinyun refuted the Queen's words with reason and evidence in public, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

The Queen represents the face of the Ulanara clan. How could the Queen Mother be happy when Fucha Xinyu did not give face to the Queen?
