"Your Majesty, you have caused Shilan so much pain."
Nian Shilan woke up from her dream and sat up suddenly.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Songzhi heard the sound outside and hurried in.
Nian Shilan glanced at her and then at the furnishings in the room. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Isn't she dead? Before he died, he could not let go of his hatred for a long time, and his soul was wandering in the palace. What is going on now?
Could it be that he was reborn?
Seeing that Nian Shilan was silent, Songzhi quickly called someone.
"Come here, light the Huanyi incense quickly."
"No."
When Nian Shilan heard Huanyixiang, she suddenly remembered that the person named Zhen Huan in the dream said that there was a lot of musk in Huanyixiang.
Nian Shilan's mood always fluctuated, so Songzhi didn't think much and quickly poured her a cup of tea.
"Did your Majesty have a nightmare?"
Yes, wasn't my previous life just like a dream?
Although I don't know if my so-called past life was a dream or if I was really reborn, in short, I can't let the Nian family follow the same footsteps as before.
"What day is it today?"
Nian Shilan took a sip of tea and asked lightly.
"My Lady, you are confused by your sleep. There are still ten days until the palace election."
Songzhi looked at Nian Shilan and said carefully: "Someone from the queen has sent a message, asking you to wake up and come over."
Yes, when the queen called me over, she also rewarded herself with a maid. What was her name?
I can’t remember it, but I was dismissed within a few days.
If I remember correctly, the queen also bought a copy of her book from the emperor because of this.
What a scheming and calculating person.
Nian Shilan sat for a while and asked, "Is Huang Guiquan here?"
"We're already here, waiting outside."
Songzhi quickly replied: "Do you want him to come in?"
"Yeah, pass."
"Slave Huang Guiquan sends his regards to Concubine Hua. May the concubine be blessed with peace and happiness."
Huang Guiquan knelt on the ground to pay his respects.
"Get up."
Nian Shilan sat on the couch and asked casually: "It's almost time for the palace election. How are your preparations going?"
"I'm ready to go back to you."
"That's good."
Nian Shilan nodded and said: "I haven't been feeling well these days, so I haven't gone to Tiyuan Palace to see you. But you are my distant relative, so I trust you. Don't go to the palace election, Let others find fault, otherwise you know my temper."
After listening to Nian Shilan's words, Huang Guiquan quickly said: "My Majesty, please rest assured. My servant is of course dedicated and will never cause any trouble to my Majesty."
"Okay, you go down, I have to go to Jingren Palace to reply to the Queen."
Nian Shilan deliberately said in front of Huang Guiquan that he was going to Jingren Palace. He didn't say anything just now, but if there were any problems after a few days, it would be the Queen's will. It doesn't matter anymore.
"twitter."
After Huang Guiquan finished speaking, he retreated.
"Songzhi, please change my clothes."
Nian Shilan thought for a while. Although he had been in the palace for so many years, even though he was on the same level as the queen, the queen was still the queen. There was no need for him to be so competitive.
Originally, Nian Shilan was only thinking about the emperor, but what happened to him?
Forget it, she was tired too, and she didn't want to fight anymore in this life, but she needed the emperor's favor to protect the longevity of her Nian family, so she still had to plan carefully.
Songzhi brought Nian Shilan's favorite red and bright clothes, but Nian Shilan frowned when she looked at them.
I used to be too ostentatious, and my concubines could not wear true red or embroider peonies, but my clothes were all red, even if they were not true red, they were still very red.
Nian Shilan shook his head: "Change into something plain."
Songzhi was stunned when she heard Nian Shilan's words. How could Concubine Hua have any plain clothes?
Nian Shilan looked at Songzhi's indescribable expression and also reacted.
"I remember there was a white one with lotus embroidered on it before. That's it."
Songzhi listened to Nian Shilan's words and said carefully: "My dear, didn't you think that dress was unlucky before, so I put it under the box."
This is really not Songzhi's fault, Nian Shilan has always had uncertain preferences, and no one can dissuade him when he loses his temper.
Now that she can't find the clothes she wants to wear, she might be punished.
"That's all, let's change to a blue one."
Nian Shilan felt a little sad when she saw Songzhi's scared look.
After he was demoted as a promise in his previous life, Songzhi was the only one who followed him and was willing to do anything for him.
In this life, I will naturally treat her well.
When Songzhi heard Nian Shilan's words, she felt as if she had been granted amnesty and quickly got up to look for clothes.
When Songzhi brought the clothes for Nian Shilan to change, Nian Shilan said softly: "You are the dowry maid of this palace and the maid in charge of Yikun Palace. From now on, you can arrange other small things like this." People do it, they don’t have to do everything themselves.”
Songzhi had been following Nian Shilan since she was a child. When she suddenly heard Nian Shilan's words, she felt a little moved.
"It's okay. I'm used to serving you, so I'm afraid that the little palace ladies won't do things carefully. I can rest assured that I can personally arrange matters concerning the queen."
Nian Shilan was no less moved than Songzhi when she saw Songzhi. The emperor in the previous life also fell in love with Songzhi. Although she gave Songzhi to the emperor for the sake of the Nian family, she knew that it was just the emperor's design.
In this life, she wants to give Songzhi a good destination.
"Yes, you have been with me since you were a child, and in a blink of an eye, you are now so old."
Nian Shilan said softly: "You are almost old enough to get married. Don't worry, whether you want to leave the palace or stay in the palace, I will give you a good home."
When Songzhi heard Concubine Hua's words, she knelt down in excitement and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. But I don't want to leave the palace. I just want to accompany you."
"Get up, you don't have to kneel down when it's just the two of us."
Nian Shilan helped Songzhi up and said, "Of course I don't want you to leave, but I will definitely find a good family for you."
"Thank you, ma'am."
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Jiang from the Queen's Palace has come to ask you if you are up. If you are, I would like to invite you to Jingren Palace to talk."
Zhou Ninghai's voice sounded outside, asking tentatively.
"I understand, I will go there immediately."
Nian Shilan tidied her clothes and was helped out by Songzhi.
