"So what you're saying is that it's enough to leave only one young and wealthy person on the battlefield?"
The emperor looked at Nian Shilan and couldn't help but smile: "If Nian Xing knew that this was your idea, I'm afraid he would never recognize you as my aunt again."
"I can't let him know."
Nian Shilan said with a surprised look on his face: "So this is not a request to the emperor. He dare not not listen to your decree."
"So you are putting all the bad things on me and asking me to take the blame for you, right?"
Although the emperor didn't sound like he was happy, the expression on his face was one of happiness that couldn't be hidden at all.
Nian Shilan knew that he had made the right bet. With Prince Dun's incident, the emperor was probably more wary of his brother.
If the Nian family loses military power, the emperor may think that his brother's military exploits will only be credit to the Nian family. But if the Nian family continues like this, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not repeat what he did in his previous life.
"How can I let the emperor take this title for me in vain? When the time comes, I will say that the emperor has other reasons for doing this. Nian Xing doesn't seem to be rich and not that smart, so he will naturally believe it."
In fact, Nian Shilan also said something ironic. On the contrary, Nian Xing was much smarter than Nian Fu.
If Nian Shilan had been more careful, he would have been able to get around in the officialdom with ease. Nian Xing will also be more accepting of his own arrangements.
"You have said so, how can I disagree. However, you have to tell your brother personally. I don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
The emperor readily agreed without any surprise.
Nian Shilan felt relieved after listening to the emperor's words. Naturally, it would be best for her to tell her brother.
"Yes, all the ministers and concubines obey the emperor."
After a conversation, both of them were very satisfied.
"I came here today, and there is one more thing I want to tell you."
The emperor saw that Nian Shilan was happy, and then he revealed the purpose of his visit.
"I would like to hear the details."
"It's about Yinyin's side."
As the emperor spoke, he took a look at Nian Shilan's face. Sure enough, Nian Shilan's face changed when she heard Liu Yinyin's name.
"Her child was gone back then, and it really had nothing to do with me. I naturally want to find out the real culprit and clear my name, but if she insists on clinging to him, I have a bad temper, and so will your Majesty. Know."
Nian Shilan said a little angry. She really didn't want to see Liu Yinyin again.
But she didn't expect Liu Yinyin to have the same idea.
"I know, I know everything."
The emperor comforted Nian Shilan and said, "It's just that now that Yinyin is pregnant again, just in case, you should not go to her Yonghe Palace."
"What does this mean, Your Majesty?"
Although Nian Shilan never goes, but not letting her go is another matter.
"It's Yin Yin who said that no one was found in the previous incident, so in order to prevent another accident, I just want to say that you should not spread the news that she comes to Yikun Palace again."
The emperor's words were quite tactful. He didn't let Nian Shilan go to Yonghe Palace, and he didn't let Nian Shilan pass Liu Yinyin to Yikun Palace. Doesn't that mean he told Nian Shilan not to look for Liu Yinyin in the future?
Nian Shilan was angry and laughed: "Does she mean that she doesn't want to see my concubine? Is it that I am willing to see her?"
The emperor knew that Nian Shilan would react this way, and was a little helpless.
Fortunately, Nian Shilan can regulate his emotions now, and then said: "Both Minghui and Shu Yue are not in good health these days, and the Chinese New Year is only five days away, and I don't want to go back and forth." . I still want to tell the emperor that the matter of taking charge of the Sixth Palace should be left to the queen. After all, I am really at my wits end."
"Okay, since you said so, there's nothing I can't agree to."
When the emperor saw that Nian Shilan had agreed on his own initiative, he was already very satisfied, and there was nothing else he could care about.
"Okay, I will go back first. In the past few days, you and your two children will go to Huang's Niang's place. There are many good things at Huang's Niang's place, and maybe they will all be given to our daughter."
After saying this, the emperor left with a smile.
"Empress,"
Seeing that the emperor was gone, Songzhi dared to speak: "Where is Mr. Qian?"
"Just keep everything as planned, don't worry about anything else."
Nian Shilan waved her hand and asked everyone to get out. She had to think carefully.
Now that Nian Xing has been transferred back to the capital, his brother will come back next year, and Nian Fu will be next.
Everything is going in a good direction, and these things in the palace are not a big problem to her.
Feng Ruozhao and Zhen Huan helped Shen Meizhuang move the palace, and An Lingrong also came to help. It took a day to complete the arrangement.
Shen Meizhuang originally wanted to leave the two of them with some snacks before leaving, but they both left without her having to worry about them.
"Hey, I'm late."
When Nian Shilan came, it was almost time for dinner, and everything in the palace was already in order.
"The queen is here."
Shen Meizhuang has a good relationship with Nian Shilan now, so Nian Shilan doesn't care whether she is polite or not.
After listening to her words, he sat down with a smile: "I thought it would take a few days to clean up, but I didn't expect that they would finish it all for you in one day."
"Yes, Concubine Jing and Huan'er are afraid that Concubine Chen will not have a good rest at night, so they wish they had arranged everything."
Shen Meizhuang said very happily: "But I wanted to keep them for some snacks, but neither of them wanted to."
"I heard that An Changzai is here too?"
Nian Shilan was still thinking about why Shen Meizhuang only kept Concubine Jing and Zhen Huan, but Shen Meizhuang hurriedly said: "Sister An was passed on by the emperor in the afternoon."
"Is that giving me an advantage? How about I come to ask for some food?"
Nian Shilan smiled and said nothing, but Shen Meizhuang was not unhappy when he heard it.
"Of course that's good. I asked the small kitchen to prepare a lot of snacks, and I'll try them too. But of course I can't compare them with those in the palace. I hope you don't dislike them."
Shen Meizhuang said and asked Caiyue to get some snacks.
Nian Shilan saw that there was no one in the room, and then said: "Qian Gui is pregnant now, so you must not be careless."
"I know this."
Shen Meizhuang nodded and said: "According to what the empress said, I will wait at the Queen Mother's side whenever I have time. I will try my best not to come into contact with other concubines in the palace, and I will treat everything sent by outsiders." If you don’t want to eat, you won’t need anything. Huan’er also said that she won’t send anything over, so it means that I won’t accept or use anything that belongs to her.”
Nian Shilan actually felt a little distressed when she heard the words of Shenmeizhuang.
They just wanted to have a child, but they didn't know why it was so difficult.
