Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother
Chapter 262 The Emperor's Suspicion
Princess Pingle smiled and said, "I know I can't hide anything from you, Mother. It's Qingcheng. The Emperor has imprisoned Uncle Prince Dun in the Prince's Palace. I'm afraid Qingcheng will never be able to leave. I would like to ask the Emperor to allow Qingcheng to enter and leave the Palace freely."
Yixiu frowned. She looked at her daughter and asked in confusion, "Why are you begging for her when all is well? This matter was issued by your royal father. You should go and ask your royal father first!"
When the emperor was mentioned, Pingle snorted angrily.
"The Empress Dowager also said that the Emperor has been resting in the Yikun Palace for a while. I went to the Yangxin Palace to look for him several times, but Su Peisheng told me that he was not there."
Yixiu's face suddenly turned cold, which frightened Princess Pingle.
Ping Le stammered, "Empress Dowager, please don't be angry. No matter what, that noble lady was just a concubine. You don't have to bother with her. Getting angry is bad for your health! Getting angry is bad for your health!"
Of course, Yixiu was not angry that the emperor favored Nian Shilan, but she was angry at why Nian Shilan was so stupid?
Of course she knew that Nian Shilan hated the emperor deeply, but if the spices were used too much and someone discovered it, it would be troublesome.
Yixiu didn't want to say this in front of her daughter. She forced a smile and said nonchalantly, "The Empress Dowager is not angry. She will tell your father-in-law about this."
Pingle noticed that Yixiu was not in a good mood, so he found another excuse to make Yixiu laugh.
After the mother and daughter played for a while, Pingle left.
Yixiu narrowed her eyes slightly and said to Jianqiu with a sharp gaze, "Don't give Concubine Nian any more spices this month. I think she's going crazy."
The emperor stayed at Nian Shilan's place for several days, and even he himself felt it was strange.
For some reason, he always wanted to see Nian Shilan. Although he liked Nian Shilan, he didn't think of her all the time. Sometimes, even when he was handling government affairs, he would think of Nian Shilan.
The emperor became more and more suspicious, so he called in the people from the Sticking Rod Department.
"Go check on Mr. Nian, is there anything special about the things he has been using recently?"
The leader of the Sticking Rod Department nodded, bowed deeply to the emperor, and left.
Yixiu's subordinates naturally noticed something unusual and reported the news to Yixiu.
Yixiu was very annoyed. She knew that if she continued to use it in the way that Nian Shilan did, something bad would happen.
"For the time being, stop the emperor's medicine and tell his men to be careful and not leave any evidence behind."
Nian Shilan was a little angry when she didn't receive the spices sent by Yixiu, but when Jianqiu told her that the emperor had noticed something strange, Nian Shilan's face turned pale.
Nian Shilan still pretended to be calm and gritted her teeth, "So what if we're discovered? At most, I'll take the blame myself. If the emperor wants to kill or beat you, just come at me."
Jianqiu sneered, took a few steps closer, and whispered in Nian Shilan's ear, "Really? Has your Excellency ever considered that General Nian is far away in the northwest, and that your Nian family has dozens of members? If this matter were to be discovered by the Emperor, do you think he would only kill you? Would those others be implicated?"
Nian Shilan just received a letter from home some time ago, which was sent by her mother.
Although the letter was sent by the emperor and was bound to say good things about the emperor, Nian Shilan could still tell from the letter that her family had not been greatly affected by her brother's affairs during this period.
The Nian family originally had some savings. Although the emperor confiscated Nian Gengyao's embezzled property, in order to appease Nian Shilan, the emperor later rewarded the Nian family with a sum of money for their daily food and clothing. Now they are not having a hard time.
Thinking of this, Nian Shilan became panicked.
"So what should I do now? Should I just give up like this? I really can't bear it."
Jian Qiu chuckled and said, "There's an old saying, 'There's a long way to go,' and as long as the green mountains remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood. You just need to hook the emperor and make him not forget you. There's still a lot of time to come!"
Thanks to Yixiu's intervention, the emperor's men did not discover this matter.
In addition, the emperor had not been taking the medicine for a long time, and the incense was specially formulated. The people from the Imperial Hospital examined the emperor again and again, but they could not find anything.
The emperor thought he was just being overly suspicious, but he still ignored Nian Shilan and went to Zhen Huan and An Lingrong.
An Lingrong was fine, but Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang hated Nian Shilan.
Broken Yuxuan
Zhen Huan played the guqin for the emperor and recited poems with a smile.
The emperor half-closed his eyes in enjoyment, responding to Zhen Huan's voice and clapping his hands to the beat.
"Hanhuan's temperament has become more gentle, and I like getting along with you more and more."
The emperor was enchanted by the sound of the piano and clapped his hands in praise.
Zhen Huan is no longer the same Zhen Huan she used to be. After experiencing miscarriage and humiliation, she already knows how to act in front of the emperor.
"That's all because Your Majesty knows how to discipline people. In the past, I was young and ignorant, and always made Your Majesty angry. Thank goodness Your Majesty didn't hold it against me."
The Emperor embraced Zhen Huan with increasing satisfaction. He said with emotion, "Nowadays, everyone around me is so docile, but for some reason, I miss your unruly ways. Noble Lady Nian was also like that when she first entered the palace, but now that she has experienced so many ups and downs, she has become a little more gentle."
A trace of hatred flashed across Zhen Huan's eyes. If she had been as unruly as she was before, she would probably be dead now.
"After experiencing all these ups and downs, Noble Nian must have a different feeling in her heart. I vaguely remember going to the opera when I first entered the palace. Noble Nian was still the Imperial Concubine at that time. She listened to Xue Dingshan's expedition to the west with us. She was so proud when she talked about her brother that I couldn't help but envy her."
As she spoke, Zhen Huan couldn't help but cover her mouth.
She quickly stood up and knelt on the ground to apologize to the emperor: "I spoke carelessly for a moment, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
The emperor had a cold face and his voice unconsciously carried a hint of chill.
"Don't say these words again in the future."
Zhen Huan lowered her head, "I understand."
The emperor still listened to what Zhen Huan said. He had killed Nian Gengyao and his two sons. Nian Gengyao and Nian Shilan had such a good relationship. How could Nian Shilan have no grudges against him?
Thinking of this, the emperor felt even more uncomfortable.
He even felt that he was very obsessed with Nian Shilan some time ago, and Nian Shilan must have used some tricks.
Now that he thought about it, he had just killed her brother. How could Nian Shilan not care about him at all?
