Since Qingran was over one year old and realized that he was able to speak, he learned a lot of words from Nian Shilan's careful teaching every day.

But she restrained herself and didn't show too much difference in herself. She only uttered one word or one phrase. Her soft and tender voice could melt people's hearts. She was extremely cute.

Qingran was in very good health and was not at all affected by the musk as Nian Shilan had worried about. This made Nian Shilan feel relieved.

Ever since Nian Shilan discovered that her body was corroded by musk, she asked Jiang Cheng to treat her. She was determined to keep her body healthy so that she could live longer than that old man Yinzhen.

Concubine Hua discovered that Huanyixiang contained musk, but Jiang Cheng and everyone in Yikun Palace who knew about it kept it a secret. Even Jiang Cheng's brother Jiang Shen didn't notice it.

When she was pregnant, Concubine Hua sealed up the Huanyi incense on the grounds that it was inconvenient for her to smell the fragrance. She asked her parents to help make it and the ones given by the emperor to help her, and put them together in a corner of the warehouse.

When Qingran was one and a half years old, she would spend some time every day crawling on the floor covered with a thick blanket. Crawling more is helpful for the development of the brain of a child. She wanted to win at the starting line from an early age and started to surpass her other brothers and sisters from an early age.

Qingran doesn't have any big ambitions, but...

When she had the chance to fight for it, why didn't she fight for it?

The emperor in "Legend of Zhen Huan" was not that difficult to kill. Qingran also wanted to be an emperor for fun, so it was necessary for her to have a good body.

She has been competitive since she was a child. Doesn’t she believe that she can’t compare to other princes?

You have to know that the princes of the Qing Dynasty had the habit of not eating enough. If she eats well, she will have no problem defeating her brothers with one punch in the future.

Thinking of the bright future, Qingranjuan became even more excited.

Not only physical fitness is important, the emperor's favor is also indispensable. She wants to be the most favored princess of the Qing Dynasty. The development of a princess is inseparable from the emperor in the early stages.

One afternoon, Yinzhen came to Yiku Palace to visit Nian Shilan.

Nian Shilan was holding a rattle, watching Qingran crawling on the other side of the carpet. When she heard Su Peisheng chanting "The Emperor has arrived", she immediately rolled her eyes and put the rattle on the table.

With no love in her heart and a healthier body, Nian Shilan is more beautiful than before. Even when wearing a simple Manchu dress, she is radiant.

She stood up, straightened her clothes, and went to greet the emperor at the door of the palace. She saw the emperor coming from afar, and only when he came closer did she kneel down and greet him, "Your concubine respectfully welcomes the emperor. May the emperor be blessed with good health."

She is no longer the Concubine Hua who would wait for the emperor at the gate of Yiku Palace early in the morning.

"Get up, Shilan, there's no need to be so polite." Yinzhen smiled and pulled up Concubine Hua, pinching her pretty face with a bit of itch.

Nian Shilan pretended to be shy and lowered her head slightly, but it was to hide the uncontrollable disgust in her eyes. Fortunately, she was used to suppressing it. After easing the nausea in her heart, she chuckled and said:

"Etiquette cannot be abolished. I want to set a good example for Zhaoyue."

"Zhao Yue was taught very well by you."

Yinzhen sighed slightly. He used to think that his feelings for the princess were indifferent. Wen Yi was very cute, but she only stuck to Concubine Cao and was a little afraid of him, the emperor.

Yinzhen didn't think there was anything wrong with it before, but when he had Zhaoyue, who loved and was close to him, Yinzhen realized that having a little cotton-padded jacket was so heartwarming.

When Qingran heard Yinzhen's voice, she immediately activated her passive skill and crawled towards Yinzhen with a big smile on her face. Her little baby teeth were also exposed, making her look even more adorable.

"Emperor~" Qingran acted cute without any burden in her heart, and opened her arms to Yinzhen, "Emperor, hug me~"

"Just like your mother, she knows how to act like a spoiled child." Yinzhen smiled and picked up Qingran, tossing her around in his arms. He commented, "She's a little heavier than before."

Qingran's tender little arm, as white as a lotus root, hugged one of Yinzhen's arms, found a comfortable position to sit in his arms, and then began to grab one of Yinzhen's fingers and play with it.

Yinzhen sat on the other side of the soft couch in the Yikun Palace bedroom, letting Qingran play around while he talked to Nian Shilan about something else. "The weather has been getting hotter recently. I plan to go to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat. Would you like to come with me, Shilan?"

Nian Shilan didn't go during the first year of her pregnancy because she needed to take care of the fetus; she didn't go during the second year because she was busy taking care of Zhaoyue; now it's the third year.

Yinzhen guessed that Zhaoyue had grown up enough and could travel, so he came to ask Nian Shilan in person.

Nian Gengyao made military achievements on the battlefield, and Nian Shilan did not cause trouble in the harem. Although she was not given the title of Defei, her behavior became increasingly similar to that of Defei. She was not jealous and did not punish concubines, and conflicts rarely occurred.

While Yinzhen was pleased, he loved Nian Shilan even more.

Only occasionally, late at night, Yinzhen would miss the arrogant and unruly Nian Shilan of the past. Watching Nian Shilan miss Concubine Hua was just like how he watched Concubine Xi miss Concubine Wan in the original plot.

He always misses the past.

"Of course I have to go. I haven't left the palace for a long time and I miss it very much." Nian Shilan agreed without hesitation. The Old Summer Palace is a summer resort and the temperature will be cooler there.

Nian Shilan was very much looking forward to it. This time she was going with her daughter, and it would definitely be more interesting than previous years.

"You have changed a lot for Zhaoyue." Yinzhen blurted out.

"Then Your Majesty, do you think this change is good or bad?"

After washing her hands, Nian Shilan peeled a grape, raised her white arm, and personally brought it to Yinzhen's mouth.

Yinzhen ate it in one bite to give him some face, then took Nian Shilan's wrist and kissed her finger.

Nian Shilan shrank back as if she had received an electric shock. Under Yinzhen's amused gaze, she lowered her eyes slightly and said angrily, "Your Majesty, the child is here!"

"It's okay, she doesn't understand." Yinzhen pinched Qingran's armpits on both sides, lifted her up to his eyes, and moved his cheek close to rub Qingran's face: "Isn't it, little Zhaoyue?"

Qingran raised his arms to block it, and chuckled, "The Emperor is bad, his beard is prickly."

Fortunately, her arms were covered with clothes, otherwise her delicate skin would have been pierced red by the ignorant Yinzhen.

Nian Shilan snorted and had no intention of peeling the grapes. When washing her hands, she rubbed the place where Yinzhen had kissed her twice, then turned around and had a sweet smile on her face again.

This year, except for the bedridden Concubine Duan and the Empress Dowager who was devoted to worshipping Buddha, almost all the concubines went to the Old Summer Palace. Of course, some court ladies were not on the list.

This was Qingran's first time to visit the Old Summer Palace as a master, and the experience was very novel, but she was still young and could not run around freely. Every day, Songzhi carried her to a cool place to play.

Nian Shilan would not allow her daughter to go near water. Every day when she went out, she was surrounded by a large group of palace maids, and she was dressed like a royal concubine with full pomp, in order to eliminate the possibility of her daughter having an accident from the root.
