Nian Shilan looked at Feng Ruozhao and guessed what she was thinking, but she didn't want to explain.
"You still have to go and reply to the emperor. I won't stay any longer."
Feng Ruozhao stood up with a smile: "You go to the Nourishing Heart Hall."
"Walk slowly."
Nian Shilan didn't leave anyone alone, and smiled and asked Songzhi to see off Feng Ruozhao.
When Songzhi came back from seeing people off, he thought Nian Shilan was going to the Yangxin Hall, so he asked, "Is the empress going to see the emperor now?"
"We must go, but we can't go like this."
Nian Shilan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go see Concubine Duan."
"yes."
Songzhi always followed Nian Shilan's words, so as soon as Nian Shilan spoke, Songzhi immediately supported Nian Shilan and walked out.
But Nian Shilan had just walked halfway when she met the emperor.
"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."
Nian Shilan saluted the emperor with a bad expression and asked, "Where is the emperor going?"
"I heard that something happened in the harem, and I wanted to go to your place for a visit. Where are you going?"
The emperor looked at Nian Shilan, not looking like he was looking for him.
"The emperor has heard about the harem, so naturally I have no clue."
Nian Shilan sighed and said, "I originally thought about going to Sister Duan Fei's place. She is well-informed and knowledgeable, so she will definitely have some ideas."
"That's okay, why don't you come and listen to me?"
The emperor stepped forward and took Nian Shilan's hand and walked in the direction of Yikun Palace.
"I feel ashamed of my trust in the emperor. I can't even solve this small matter. I, I really don't have the face to talk to the emperor."
Nian Shilan knew that the emperor would know about this kind of thing sooner or later, and of course she had already thought about how to solve it.
"It's just that this matter involves Shu Yue's poisoning some time ago, so I really can't make up my mind."
"I heard that Concubine Qi got very angry in Chuxiu Palace. Why is it related to Shu Yue's matter again?"
The emperor only knew that Nian Shilan called Concubine Qi and Guiren Qi for questioning, but he did not know what they said.
Nian Shilan saw that he was arriving at Yikun Palace soon, so he didn't say much outside.
When the two returned to Yikun Palace, Nian Shilan dispersed everyone around him, and then awkwardly told the emperor what had just happened from beginning to end.
"Although Concubine Qi is wrong, after all, she also gave birth to a third brother for the emperor. I really don't know how to deal with it."
Nian Shiqian looked embarrassed, and then said: "Although Shu Yue is not my biological child, she is by my side at such a young age. What does it matter whether I am my biological child or not? I love her and Minghui very much." It's all the same. If I don't pursue this matter, wouldn't it be a waste of time to be a mother?"
The emperor really didn't expect that Concubine Qi would be so cruel. Shu Yue was only two years old, but she would be so cruel.
"Concubine Qi, well done."
The emperor frowned, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction with Concubine Qi.
"The third elder brother is not young anymore, and he can clearly distinguish what is wrong. There is no need to tolerate this matter."
Nian Shilan knew that the emperor would do this. Although she was happy in her heart, she did not show it on her face.
"Having said that, after all, the matter involves the concubine's palace, so it's really hard for me to say how to punish Concubine Qi."
The emperor thought for a while and said: "Concubine Qi, I am deprived of my title and reduced to a promise. From now on, I will not be allowed to enter Changchun Palace unless I have an imperial edict."
"Yes, I will send someone to deliver the order soon."
When Nian Shilan heard that the emperor did not take her life after all, she knew that the emperor was still worried about the third elder brother.
"My concubine knows."
Early the next morning, Su Peisheng went to Changchun Palace to deliver the decree.
All of a sudden, the whole palace knew about the news that Concubine Qi had been demoted to Li Yao.
As soon as the third elder brother heard about this, he ran to Changchun Palace to see Li Yaosheng.
But the gate of Changchun Palace has been sealed, and he just said a few words to E Niang through the gate of Changchun Palace.
"Hongshi, you must live up to your expectations."
Li promised to cry and said: "You must not plead for E Niang. As long as you are well, it doesn't matter if E Niang can't go out. Remember, you must listen to the Queen's words. This is the way out for us two."
"Mother, my son doesn't want to be the Queen's son. My son just wants to be with you."
The third elder brother cried after listening to his mother's words and said: "Mother, my son will definitely ask for the Emperor's Ama. My son does not want to be a prince or an emperor. My son just wants to be by your side."
"Shut up."
Li promised to stop crying after hearing what Third Brother said, and reprimanded: "Eniang has done so much all for you. If you can't become the prince, then Eniang will have no future. Remember Come on, from now on you will be the queen’s son, you are the legitimate son, don’t you remember. You must uphold my mother-in-law, do you hear that?”
"Mother, when did this happen, why are you still thinking about this?"
In fact, the third elder brother didn't understand Li's painstaking efforts at all, and he also knew his own strength. Huang Ama didn't like him, and he didn't have the talent to be a prince, but his mother didn't understand this at all.
"Shut up. You swear in front of me that you must become the prince and support E Niang. Otherwise, E Niang will not be able to live in peace even if she dies."
Li promised that he had not thought about dying at first, but after listening to the words of the third elder brother and thinking of what Nian Shilan said yesterday, he also figured out that he would really have an influence on the third elder brother. And if he were alive, the third elder brother would never be able to regard the queen as his mother. Although the Queen is currently grounded, the Queen Mother is still alive, so nothing will happen to the Queen.
When the third brother saw that Li promised to be really angry, he thought of comforting her first, and then agreed according to Li promised.
He did not expect that the conversation he had with his mother would be his last.
The next day, news spread that Li promised to die.
Nian Shilan just sighed after hearing the news, but was not surprised.
"Let's go, we have to go see this Li promised."
Although the Changchun Palace was closed, it had to be opened at this time.
As soon as Nian Shilan arrived at Changchun Palace, she found that the emperor and the third elder brother were already there.
"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."
Nian Shilan sighed and said, "Why is Li Zhengyi so worried about it?"
"Why can't you think about it? Doesn't the imperial concubine know?"
Not to mention that the third elder brother's IQ is not high. At this time, his mother is gone. What good will it do for you to talk to Nian Shilan like this?
Not only did the emperor become more unhappy with him, but he also offended Nian Shilan.
