Comprehensive film and television: Make trouble before lying down

Shen Meizhuang left the Cining Palace and went straight to the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as she entered the room, she bowed to Yinzhen with a smile on her face: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May your Highness be blessed with good health!"

The emperor's expression of exhaustion changed as he immediately stood up from his desk, walked quickly down, and personally helped Shen Meizhuang up: "My beloved concubine, why are you here?"

Shen Meizhuang's eyebrows curved, and her face was full of playfulness as she said: "I am here to congratulate the emperor,

Just now, Noble Lady Fucha has diagnosed a three-month pregnancy, and I came here specifically to ask for a reward."

Yinzhen's mood brightened upon hearing this. "This is a happy occasion, and it deserves a reward. I wonder what reward my beloved concubine would like me to give her?"

Shen Meizhuang lowered her brows in thought, and suddenly thought of her fat son. She smiled wickedly and said, "Your Majesty, how about granting me a day off?"

Yinzhen immediately became interested: "Oh? My beloved, can you tell me more about it?"

Shen Meizhuang immediately put on a bitter face: "Your Majesty, you don't know how naughty the Sixth Prince is. His little arms and legs are very strong. I am very tired taking care of him.

Why don't you let me rest for a day? When the emperor is free, I can take him with me."

Yinzhen didn't expect Shen Meizhuang to offer such a reward.

The Qing Dynasty always embraced grandchildren but not sons. Even though he had several princes and princesses, he never held any of them.

This also included Shen Meizhuang's Sixth Prince, who was diagnosed with poisoning when he was just born and was not allowed to see the wind. After that, he was taken to Qixiang Palace, but she only held the Sixth Prince in his arms for a moment.

To be honest, I've never really held a baby in my arms, but it's still pretty interesting to think about it.

But I've been really busy lately and can't spare the time, and I don't know whether I can fulfill this promise.

So he said ambiguously: "I will consider your suggestion, my beloved concubine."

Yinzhen took her hand and asked Shen Meizhuang to sit next to him. Shen Meizhuang carefully chose her words and told him the purpose of today.

"Your Majesty, I have another matter to ask of you today. The Queen Mother is old and has suffered a series of setbacks over the past few days. Her health is not as good as before. Now, she is only holding on with one breath and not collapsing.

I know Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and cannot spare the time, but I still implore Your Majesty to go and see the Empress Dowager."

If there is anything, sit down and talk it out face to face. There will either be a compromise or a fight.

It's better than the current stalemate. They are stuck in the middle and their life is not easy.

Yinzhen's feelings towards the Empress Dowager were always complex and contradictory.

The Empress Dowager always asked him to make concessions on various issues, and although he was the emperor, he didn't want to compromise, but he had to.

The result of the compromise was that the Empress Dowager pressed him again and again. It was not that he didn't want to give in, he just wanted the Empress Dowager to say something good about him.

The Emperor also did not give a direct answer to this matter. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "My beloved concubine, I wonder what you think about the trouble caused by the Nian family?"

Shen Meizhuang's mind raced, unable to guess the emperor's thoughts, but she was determined not to touch the affairs of state, nor could she appear too smart.

Not only is the emperor suspicious, he is also petty. When he brings up the past later, he won't tell you why.

"Your Majesty, you are really putting me in a difficult position. I haven't even figured out what's going on in the harem yet, and you're asking me to think about things outside the palace?

The Nian family is the emperor's subject, so the emperor can do whatever he wants with them. There's no need for so many twists and turns."

Hearing this, Yinzhen laughed and felt a lot more relieved.

Yes, the Nian family is his subject, and the Ulanara family is also his subject. It has nothing to do with people's livelihood. It is just a grudge between the two families. What's so difficult about dealing with it?

Although Yinzhen had not yet thought of a solution, he was no longer as anxious as before, and was in the mood to chat with Shen Meizhuang.

Seeing that the emperor was in a relaxed mood, Shen Meizhuang knew that she had not said anything wrong just now and had passed the test safely.

This palace is really not a place for people to stay. You have to think twice before saying anything. It is really difficult for someone like her who is too lazy to think.

The emperor was in a good mood and kept her until after lunch.

However, before he could leave, he heard the eunuch report: "Noble Lady Wan requests an audience."

Shen Meizhuang bowed respectfully and turned to leave. When she was about to leave, she saw Zhen Huan waiting at the door.

I don’t know what was going on in Zhen Huan’s mind, she actually dared to provoke her.

"I pay my respects to Concubine Ning. Are you leaving now? I just arrived. I'm so sorry!"

Shen Meizhuang nodded slightly, turned around and left without saying anything.

Zhen Huan's IQ has been plummeting recently. Could it be that she thinks that I left because she came?

Maybe Zhen Huan really thought so.

Zhen Huan was a little annoyed that Shen Meizhuang dared to ignore her provocation just now. Sooner or later, she would let her taste this feeling.

She then adjusted her expression and carried the food box into the hall: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I know that you have just finished lunch, so I specially brought you some sweet soup to help you digest the greasy food."

Yinzhen was very grateful for Zhen Huan's understanding, and immediately ordered the eunuch to serve a bowl.

While Yinzhen was drinking his sweet soup, Zhen Huan cautiously probed, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has been very worried about you these past few days and has been eating less than usual."

The Emperor paused while sipping his sweet soup and asked calmly, "Really? How worried is the Empress Dowager about me?"

Zhen Huan carefully observed the emperor's expression and saw nothing unusual, so she continued, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother knows that General Nian has made great contributions, and we should comfort our meritorious officials.

The Queen Mother was afraid that the Emperor would be embarrassed, so she would rather keep it to herself than tell him.

Seeing that the emperor was still drinking the sweet soup, Zhen Huan continued, "It's just that the Nian family is just a minister, yet they actually want to go against the royal family.

The incident with Concubine Hua was caused by a servant named Jianqiu. Now, Jianqiu has been beaten to death. The Nian family actually has no sympathy for the emperor's will and dares to force him. They are so audacious."

Zhen Huan was filled with indignation and was speaking up for the emperor.

Yinzhen sneered inwardly, gently put down the soup bowl, picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He stared at Zhen Huan with a scrutinizing gaze: "My beloved concubine is intelligent. I wonder, in your opinion, how should the matter of the Nian family be handled?"

Zhen Huan reorganized the solution she had thought of: "As your subject, meritorious service should be rewarded, and faults should be punished.

The Nian family is so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. Their actions should be made public, and their rudeness and disloyalty should be made known to everyone.

In this way, they have lost the support of the people. Your Majesty is trying to appease them, which only shows your benevolence. What do you think?"

Yinzhen nodded, but there was no expression on his face, which made Zhen Huan unsure whether her suggestion was adopted or rejected?

Yinzhen curled his lips slightly and said, "My beloved, if you were a man, you would definitely be able to accomplish something great with such a plan."

Hearing the compliment, Zhen Huan smiled happily.

However, she didn't notice that Yinzhen's eyes were getting colder.
