Nian Shilan thought about it for a long time, but could not figure out who could do this.
But I couldn’t talk about this matter to others, so I could only let it go for the time being.
Unexpectedly, the emperor came over at night.
Nian Shilan originally didn't eat much at night because of her brother's affairs, so Songzhi specially prepared some appetizers and some porridge to let her eat less before going to bed.
"Greetings to the Emperor, why is the Emperor still out at this time?"
Naturally, Nian Shilan couldn't let the emperor see that she was unhappy.
"It's a little late after I finished reading the book, so I just wanted to come and see you. Why are you eating at this time? You haven't used your dinner, okay?"
The Emperor asked as he sat at the table.
"Where is it? It's not Songzhi."
Nian Shilan glanced at Songzhi with a smile: "She, she made a new chicken shredded porridge and paired it with some side dishes, and she wanted me to try it. She said that if it tastes good, she will give it to Shu Yue tomorrow. She made it and ate it. Tell me, she didn't cook anything for me here. She clearly regarded me as a test dish for the princess."
"Haha, I'll try it as well. Songzhi's craftsmanship is always good."
In fact, the emperor may not even realize that he is falling more and more in love with Yikun Palace.
Since Nian Shilan changed his personality, not only has his temper become more easy-going, but the atmosphere in Yikun Palace has also become better.
In the past, Nian Shilan was not lenient to the people in the palace, but he was definitely not good.
But the people in Yikun Palace were still devoted to her.
Just like Nian Shilan's change, the people in the palace extended their kindness to Nian Shilan to the two princesses.
Only here did the emperor feel that he was not an emperor, but just an ordinary prince.
"Songzhi, go and get some bowls and chopsticks for the emperor."
In fact, Nian Shilan was still reluctant to let Songzhi show his face in front of the emperor. After all, there were things from his past life, so Nian Shilan was somewhat wary.
It's not that he's afraid of Songzhi, it's mainly that Nian Shilan doesn't want the emperor to delay Songzhi.
Although the emperor in the previous life was trying to lower his guard, who can guarantee that the emperor did not really have any affection for Songzhi?
But later he was demoted, and Songzhi did not feel better.
So in this life, Nian Shilan really doesn't want Songzhi to follow the old path.
She also absolutely forbids the emperor to have any thoughts about Songzhi anymore.
"Today Zhang Tingyu gave a memorial."
The emperor said while drinking porridge: "It contains a lot of your brother's wanton behavior."
"Brother has a reckless temper, and naturally he has offended many people."
Nian Shilan smiled bitterly and said: "But in the past two years, because my concubine has a princess, my brother's temper has also restrained a lot, and I am afraid that it will affect Minghui. My brother has been so careful, but he still has to be criticized by them. , is it true that good people are bullied?"
The emperor listened to Nian Shilan's words and knew that what she said made sense.
With Nian Gengyao's character, if he had said that someone had participated in the music like this a few years ago, I'm afraid he would have believed it.
But now, Nian Gengyao's temperament has really changed a lot after he sent people to keep an eye on it for a long time.
That's why the emperor felt that something was not right here, so he came here specifically to hear what Nian Shilan meant.
In the past, Nian Shilan never backed down once he encountered Nian Gengyao's affairs.
When Nian Shilan saw that the emperor didn't speak, he continued: "My brother also had his youthful and frivolous days. If they didn't participate in the performance at that time, but waited until he was gone before they came to accuse him, then our Nian family would still have me." The Imperial Concubine is here. And Your Majesty, you have always been wise, so you won’t believe this kind of false accusation.”
The emperor looked at Nian Shilan's look and heard her mention the word "imperial concubine", and understood that Nian Shilan had something to say.
"I won't believe it, and I don't want to wrongly accuse your brother, so I will send someone to investigate."
"If the emperor sends someone to investigate, he will really be suspicious of my brother."
Nian Shilan looked a little unhappy after listening to the emperor's words. Then she thought for a while and said, "I wonder what Mr. Zhang wants to do with my brother? If you want to take back your brother's military power, there is really no need to go through such trouble. This country, this world. They all belong to the emperor. As long as the emperor says a word, what's wrong with the elder brother? What's more, the elder brother is going to return to Beijing after the year to hand over military power. These concubines have already told the emperor. The elder brother wants to resign, but he can't Return to Beijing at this time. Otherwise, won’t everyone in the world think that my brother really has an affair with the emperor?”
The emperor listened to Nian Shilan's words and knew that what Nian Shilan said made sense.
And if Nian Gengyao's heart was hurt at this time, Nian Shilan was in the palace, so he was not afraid of any resentment in Nian Gengyao's heart. But there are many veterans in the court. If they have other ideas because of this, the court may be in turmoil.
"It's because I didn't think carefully. In this case, I won't let anyone go."
The emperor nodded and said, "But it's not your brother that I'm worried about, but the Ulanara clan."
"What does the emperor mean?"
Nian Shilan pretended not to understand.
After all, I can't be obviously smarter than the emperor, right?
"It's been less than half a month since I made you the imperial concubine, and someone will come forward to impeach your brother. I don't doubt Zhang Tingyu, but that doesn't mean I don't doubt others."
Although the emperor also doubted the queen, he was not without doubts about others.
Nian Shilan looked surprised: "Isn't the Queen Empress grounded? It can't be related to the Empress, right?"
"She is grounded, but when are things in the palace a secret? People outside the palace are trying to protect the queen, so that's why they would make such a move."
The emperor just finished a bowl of porridge, put down the bowl and said: "Although I am also a blood relative of the Ulanara family, I will not tolerate it."
When Nian Shilan heard this, he was afraid that whoever did it would be blamed on the queen.
Although I sigh in my heart, I still have a virtuous face.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so angry. If there is any misunderstanding, just let it go. And if it is the Ulanara clan, the Queen Mother cannot just sit idly by and ignore it."
Nian Shilan's words were thought of by the emperor.
If it was really done by Ulanara, it would be more convenient for the Queen Mother to handle it than to handle it herself.
"Okay, you should rest early, I'm going back to the Yangxin Palace."
The emperor stood up and walked out.
"It's late at night and you're exposed. Your Majesty should walk more slowly."
Nian Shilan saw that the emperor left but didn't stay at all. You go on your own, it's best if you go.
The emperor didn't know what Nian Shilan was thinking. He just felt that she was becoming more and more sensible, so he patted her on the shoulder and left.
"Here, take these off."
As soon as the emperor left the palace, Nian Shilan's expression changed. The virtuous and puzzled look on his face just now was nowhere to be seen. He looked like he had seen through it all and was confident.
"yes."
Ganoderma immediately asked people to tidy up the palace.
"Go and call Songzhi back."
Just now, Nian Shilan asked Songzhi to take care of the two princesses. Although Songzhi was puzzled, it was not convenient for her to ask when the emperor was around, so she left quickly.
