"Your Majesty, I think there is no need to tell my brother about my pregnancy."
Nian Shilan quickly thought of words in her mind.
"Oh, why, don't you miss your brother?"
The emperor looked at Nian Shilan as if waiting for her to give a reasonable explanation.
"I naturally miss my brother, but firstly, my brother is far away in the northwest. As a minister, he naturally has to put the emperor's country and country first. How can I let him leave at will? Secondly, my age It is not suitable for pregnancy. Although it is said to be stable after three months, no one can say what will happen in the future. It is not too late to give my brother a surprise when he returns in triumph. "
Nian Shilan tried his best to sound as natural as possible, then put down the book in his hand, took the emperor's hand and said, "Although I don't want to experience the pain of losing a child again, there are always surprises in everything. One less person If people are concerned, there will be one less person.”
The emperor did not expect that Nian Shilan would refuse to let Nian Gengyao enter the capital, but he understood what Nian Shilan said.
The emperor patted Nian Shilan on the shoulder and knew that she was right, so he stopped insisting.
"Okay, everything will be as you say."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nian Shilan felt relieved after hearing the emperor's words.
Although she has sent people out to give her brother some advice, his character cannot be persuaded by others.
"Didn't the Emperor just appoint a new nobleman in the past few days? Why is there no nobleman Xu there?"
Nian Shilan asked with a smile when he saw that Nian Gengyao's matter was over.
When the emperor saw that Nian Shilan didn't look jealous, he smiled and said, "I'm just a nobleman, so I don't have to go all the time."
"Then the emperor can go see Hui Gui and Jing Fei. I am pregnant here, and I don't want to wrong the emperor."
Nian Shilan's thoughtful and generous words made the emperor very satisfied.
"It's good to stay with you, not to mention there are children."
If Nian Shilan hadn't experienced his previous life, he would have almost believed the emperor's words.
"Your Majesty, Sir Zhang Tingyu has something urgent to ask for."
Su Peisheng came in hurriedly from outside, and he knew that something was serious.
"Why are you here at this time?"
The emperor stood up after listening to Su Peisheng's words, but did not delay asking questions.
"It seems that there is something wrong with the grain and grass shipped to the northwest."
Su Peisheng knew that this was a major event and did not dare to delay.
When Nian Shilan heard that it was shipped to the northwest and that it was for his brother, he stood up anxiously.
"You rest, I will come see you tomorrow."
The emperor held Nian Shilan down, and then hurriedly left with Su Peisheng.
"Songzhi."
As soon as the emperor left, Nian Shilan quickly called Songzhi in: "Send someone immediately to find out what happened to the grain and grass shipped to the northwest."
"Mother, the news has been received."
Songzhi looked at Nian Shilan and said anxiously: "Songyang County Magistrate Jiang Wenqing was ordered to escort the northwest army rations. Unexpectedly, he encountered enemy soldiers on the way and the rations were robbed."
"What about my brother? What's the news?"
Nian Shilan only cares about Nian Gengyao.
"As soon as the general received the news, he immediately sent troops to support him. However, Jiang Wenqing escaped from the battle and took a lot of money with him. Now that the news has been sent back, the general should have sent people to arrest Jiang Wenqing."
Nian Shilan felt relieved after hearing Songzhi's words, as long as she had nothing to do with her brother.
"However, among the people accompanying the army this time was An's father, who promised to be escorted. Now he has been caught."
Songzhi said in a low voice: "An promised that the news should have been received over there."
"So what? Now that she can't even see the emperor, she can't plead for mercy."
Nian Shilan wanted to see how An Lingrong asked the queen for help.
"Military affairs are a major matter, and the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."
Songzhi comforted Nian Shilan and said, "However, it will be difficult if she asks for help from Mr. Hui."
"how do I say this?"
Nian Shilan vaguely remembered that this happened in her previous life, but she didn't care how it was resolved later.
"This matter happened in Jeju territory, and Hui Guiren's father, Jeju, was interrogated. If An agrees to plead in front of Hui Guiren, it is inevitable that Hui Guiren will not be moved."
Songzhi's words reminded Nian Shilan that it was up to her whether Shenmeizhuang would help or not. However, An Lingrong was taken to the Old Summer Palace because Shenmeizhuang was pregnant. Now she is far away in the palace.
"You can secretly tell Huigui the news in a while. We have told her the news. It's up to her to decide what to do."
Nian Shilan can't interfere with Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan's affairs at the same time. They must have some judgment of their own.
But I didn't expect that after the emperor left, he didn't come to the harem again for several days.
On the third day, Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan came.
"It's the quietest place here right now."
Zhen Huan smiled and said, "Everyone outside here is going to be anxious to death."
"What's the hurry? The left and right harem are not allowed to interfere in politics."
Nian Shilan smiled and asked Songzhi to pour tea for the two of them, and then asked: "What, but I begged you all?"
"Not yet, but I heard that Emperor Long Yan was furious and had locked An Bihuai and Jiang Wenqing together."
Shen Meizhuang then said: "Originally, I was thinking that if An Da wanted to come to me, I would have to see the emperor's attitude. But today I heard that the emperor has issued an edict, and Jiang Wenqing has made a decision. I There’s no need to go and find out, what’s more, she didn’t ask me to come here.”
"But it seems that the queen went to see the emperor today, possibly for what An promised."
Nian Shilan said: "The queen has always been the best at doing these things. You will know it after a long time."
"Is your Majesty going to see the Emperor?"
Zhen Huan said: "After all, it concerns the northwest, so it is normal for the queen to go."
"I won't go. As I said, the palace is not allowed to interfere in politics. The emperor naturally has his own judgment, and so do you two. Don't say anything just because you are young. It may not be a good thing."
Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang looked at each other, but they still didn't quite understand what was going on.
But at night, the emperor sent a message to Zhen Huan.
"I've been busy these days and I haven't had time to see you. I rarely have time today, so I asked you to come over and have dinner with me."
When the emperor saw Zhen Huan, he pulled her and said, "Those old men like to write notes when they have nothing to do. They are so long-winded and annoying."
"As an official, it is your duty, so Xilang does not need to criticize them harshly."
Zhen Huan comforted the emperor and turned around to see that the soup on the case had already gone cold, but the emperor seemed not to drink it.
