Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Jixiang shook his head suddenly. What was he thinking?

Noble Nian had always been arrogant and domineering, always bullying their queen. Now that she was down and out, the queen was just repaying her kindness with an eye for an eye.

Concubine Duan was so angry at Nian Shilan that she almost fainted. She calmed herself down and finally stood up with Jixiang's help.

"Nian Shilan, I won't let you go like this. Life in the harem is long, so what does your stunning beauty matter? I don't believe you can stay young forever!"

Nian Shilan smiled and said, "Don't worry about that, Concubine Duan. As long as the Emperor comes to my place one more day, it proves that I have not lost my favor. It's better than being alone in the deep palace, lonely and lonely."

Concubine Duan wanted to say something, but unexpectedly, Aunt Yuhu, who was beside the emperor, walked over from a distance.

"The Emperor has issued an order. Noble Lady Nian's visit to Nian Gengyao is permitted by me. No one may interfere. Anyone who interferes will be punished for treason."

After she finished speaking, she stared at Concubine Duan with a cold expression and said with a smile, "The Emperor heard that Concubine Duan has been in poor health recently, so he specially invited an imperial physician for her. I'm afraid it should be time now. You should go back to see the imperial physician, or you might get sick from this cold."

The tears in Concubine Duan's eyes were almost bursting out.

The emperor really cares so much about Nian Shilan, but what about himself?

Is the emperor so heartless to me just because I’m old and no longer pretty?

But the emperor has issued an order. If I continue to cause trouble here without knowing what is good for me, I am afraid that Nian Shilan will not be able to deal with me, and I will be in big trouble.

Concubine Duan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace. Long live the Emperor."

After saying that, she glared at Nian Shilan angrily and left with Jixiang.

Yu Hu had finished her task, but she walked towards Nian Shilan with a smile.

"The Emperor said that from now on he will definitely protect you and will never let you suffer any injustice again."

Although Nian Shilan had long hated the emperor, she couldn't help but tear up when she heard these words.

But the damage was done, and they could never go back.

She choked up and laughed, "I thank the emperor for his grace. I also ask my aunt to express my gratitude to the emperor on my behalf."

Yu Hu smiled and said, "Of course."

Nian Shilan took the food box from Songzhi's hand, walked through the layers of guards and came to the room where Nian Gengyao was imprisoned.

Guarding outside the house were four palace maids and four eunuchs.

Two of the palace maids stepped forward and took the canteen from Nian Shilan's hand. "Please forgive me, Noble Nian. The things sent here must go through layers of inspection, otherwise they cannot be handed over to the people in the house."

There were only some soups and snacks in Nian Shilan's food box, which could stand the test, so she didn't say anything and handed the things to them.

But she still reminded the palace maids, "I'm afraid that by the time you finish checking, the food in here will have gotten cold. I'll have to trouble you to heat it up. Don't let my brother eat it cold."

After finishing the explanation, Nian Shilan walked into the room where Nian Gengyao was imprisoned.

Nian Gengyao was lying on the bed and sleeping bored at the moment. When he heard the door creak, he thought it was the palace maid coming to change shifts, so he didn't even lift his eyelids.

"Brother, it's all my fault. I've caused you trouble."

Nian Shilan looked at her brother who had always been so free and unrestrained, now like a caged beast, and burst into tears. She didn't even dare to step forward. As soon as she entered the door, she knelt on the ground and cried.

After hearing Nian Shilan's voice, Nian Gengyao was stunned at first, then he quickly turned over in joy.

"Sister, it really is you. Are you okay? Did the Emperor give you any trouble?"

Nian Gengyao had no intention of blaming Nian Shilan. He quickly got up from the bed and helped Nian Shilan up.

"Sister, don't blame yourself. It's all my fault. I've caused you trouble. I can no longer protect you. You must be careful in this palace. Don't trust anyone easily, and don't fall out with the Emperor because of me. Do you understand?"

Nian Shilan didn't expect that her brother was still thinking about her at this point. She couldn't stop her tears and nodded while crying.

Nian Gengyao wiped Nian Shilan's tears with distress. "You are already an adult, but you still cry like a child. You will have to work hard to take care of the family in the future. Mother is old, and it is all my fault. I have caused trouble for the whole family."

The brother and sister hugged each other, neither blaming the other, and both took the responsibility on themselves.

Nian Shilan paused for a while, then wiped away her tears and pulled Nian Gengyao onto the bed.

She glanced around and saw that there were no palace maids guarding the place. However, she was still worried, so she pulled Nian Gengyao aside and whispered in his ear:

"Brother, the only ones who can help us now are the Crown Prince and the Queen. The Queen said that he has bribed the people in the Imperial Hospital. The Emperor will give you poisoned wine, a dagger, and a white silk. You must choose the poisoned wine. The drug is a fake death drug, and you will be sent out of the palace soon."

Nian Gengyao had long anticipated that this would be his fate, and he nodded knowingly.

At this moment, there was another knock on the door. "Noble Nian, have you finished your private conversation with General Nian? The time is almost up, please come out!"

Nian Shilan was reluctant to leave, so she threw herself into Nian Gengyao's arms and cried:

"Brother, I can't bear to leave you!"

But at this moment, Nian Gengyao could only harden his heart and push Nian Shilan away.

He didn't know what the future would be like, so he could only harden his heart and let Nian Shilan stand on her own.

The prince's party has been against him for many years. He is not sure what the outcome will be if he works for the prince.

He was a dying man and was not afraid of anything, but what he was most worried about was his sister.

The Nian family lived together outside the palace, so at least they could take care of each other.

But Nian Shilan is all alone in the palace. As her brother, he used to be able to protect her from the wind and rain, but now he has to let her grow up on her own and go her own way.

"Shilan, you must live well in the palace from now on. Brother knows you have a bad temper, but sometimes... Brother, I hope you are well."

After saying this, Nian Gengyao, a tall man, couldn't help but choke up.

He forced himself to be indifferent, Nian Gengyao closed his eyes and pushed Nian Shilan away.

"The fact that you can come here to see me is already a special favor from the Emperor. Now, in the eyes of others, I am a heinous criminal. From now on, you can just pretend that I don't exist as your brother!"

After saying this, Nian Gengyao turned his back.

"Come here, take the nobleman away. From now on, the nobleman has nothing to do with me anymore."

After receiving the news, the palace maid immediately opened the door and took the still struggling Nian Shilan out.

"Brother, I won't leave."
