"Your Highness, Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. This servant is not lucky enough to serve Queen Chunyuan. It is just by chance that she received the favor of Queen Chunyuan once. The young master and Queen Chunyuan are somewhat similar, but they are not very similar. Five points of similarity, five points of temperament. It is enough to make the emperor emotional."
Jinxi thought for a while and then told the truth.
Because Zhen Huan's question just now reminded her of what Nian Shilan had said to her before, and she couldn't help but feel a little scared, so she didn't intend to hide it.
"Five points of appearance and five points of temperament are enough to make you loyal to me, right?"
When Zhen Huan listened to Jin Xi's words, she felt that what she had been holding on to had collapsed.
How could the Emperor have any feelings for her, Zhen Huan? The only one the Emperor had feelings for was Queen Chunyuan.
"No, ma'am."
Jin Xi looked at the lonely look on Zhen Huan's face and said quickly: "I have been in the palace for many years, so I naturally know the importance of loyalty. Therefore, my loyalty to the empress is not due to her appearance."
Zhen Huan listened to Jin Xi's words, but her expression did not change.
"If the empress is really suspicious of this slave, I can ask myself to leave the palace tomorrow. I have already passed the age to leave the palace, but I have no family or worries outside the palace, so I have not left the palace."
Jin Xi looked at Zhen Huan and said, "I don't dare to hide it. I am following the empress just to have someone to rely on so that I can spend my old age peacefully."
"But if I am not favored, your reliance will naturally be lost."
Zhen Huan didn't know whether she believed it or not. She no longer had the energy to think about Jin Xi.
"But even if the empress is not favored, she is still the mistress in the palace. She will always be better than the slave outside."
What Jin Xi said was not false, but she didn't think so at first, but after seeing Zhen Huan, she never thought that Zhen Huan would not be favored.
Even if Zhen Huan avoided favor at first, she didn't think there was any problem.
Zhen Huan is not a caged thing, and many people in the palace must have noticed this.
"Jinxi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted your loyalty."
Zhen Huan lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I just didn't expect that everything was just wishful thinking."
"My Lady, please don't say that. The Emperor still has feelings for you."
"Maybe."
Zhen Huan smiled: "But it doesn't matter anymore."
Jin Xi didn't know what Zhen Huan meant when she said it was no longer important, but when she saw that Zhen Huan was no longer sad, she became even more worried.
"Empress."
"It's okay. Just take all these away. I'm going to rest for a while."
After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she stood up and walked towards the inner hall.
Jin Xi looked at Zhen Huan's back and sighed. She knew that she could no longer persuade her at this time, so she quickly asked someone to come in and remove everything.
When Nian Shilan heard in the palace that Ye Guiren had taken the emperor away from Chengqian Palace, he smiled instead.
"Empress."
Songzhi said in confusion: "This noble Ye has gone too far. Now that Concubine Wan is pregnant, the emperor has to compete for favors when he goes to accompany her."
Songzhi knew what was going on, how could Nian Shilan not see it.
"This Mr. Ye is also too smart."
Nian Shilan said angrily: "It won't do her any good to offend Wan Bin like this."
"Perhaps the Queen asked her to do this."
Songzhi also felt that what Ye Guiren did was a bit too much. After all, she was a noble person, but she dared to go to the palace of a pregnant concubine to snatch the emperor. It was really unreasonable.
After listening to Songzhi's words, Nian Shilan raised her finger and touched Songzhi's head, and then said with a smile: "Do you really think that the current queen can still be Ye Guiren's master? If Ye Guiren listened to the queen, then the queen would have I took away the power of the Sixth Palace. The current queen probably hopes more than anyone else that Ye Guiren will fall into trouble. Otherwise, we don’t need to cause trouble for her in the future of the queen. She will have enough trouble for herself. I can bear it.”
"Then, would you like to help me deal with this matter?"
Songzhi thought that Zhen Huan would be very sad to death at this time.
But Nian Shilan didn't think so, and she had no way to deal with it.
The emperor is free to rest in any palace, and it is reasonable for the emperor and Ye Guiren to leave Chengqian Palace together.
Zhen Huan is pregnant and cannot take care of the emperor. Is there anything wrong with the emperor going to Ye Guiren's place? What to do yourself?
"If Wan Concubine can see the emperor clearly, there will be no need for me to deal with it. If this is the case, Wan Concubine still can't see clearly, then what difference does it make if I don't deal with it."
Nian Shilan said lightly and stopped talking about this topic.
Nian Shilan didn't think so before, but now she thinks that in her previous life, Zhen Huan was provoked by the emperor and became frustrated with the emperor before she asked herself to leave the palace. Even after she returned to the palace, she no longer had feelings for the emperor. In this way, Zhen Huan only had her obsession with success in her eyes and would not think about love.
"You can go to Chengqian Palace later to send some of Wanbi's favorite snacks to see how she is doing."
In the end, Nian Shilan still couldn't bear to really not ask questions at all.
After all, when she saw Zhen Huan, she thought of her former self. Wasn't she treating the emperor just like Zhen Huan?
"I think that if your Majesty is really worried, it would be better to go and see for yourself."
Songzhi naturally knew Nian Shilan, and she could hear Nian Shilan's worry from her tone, but she didn't understand. Since Nian Shilan was worried, why didn't he go and see Zhen Huan in person.
Nian Shilan didn't say anything, just shook his head.
"This Mr. Ye is really capable."
When the queen heard the news, her face darkened.
"Ye Guiren is now afraid that he will offend everyone in the harem."
Jian Qiu said carefully: "I'm afraid that everyone in the harem will think this is your intention."
"What does it matter if this is my intention? She is just a substitute."
The queen said angrily: "Didn't she say she doesn't care about those people? Well, go and send Fu Cha Mingjia to the palace to be the eunuch in charge of Yanxi Palace."
Jian Qiu couldn't help but feel a little worried after listening to the Queen's words. Although Fu Cha Mingjia was born in the Five Banners, at least he still had an official position in his family. If the Queen had sent his legitimate son to the palace like this...
"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
Jianqiu quickly advised.
But there was nothing she could do to persuade the queen to do something that she had already decided.
"There is no need to send him to Yanxi Palace for now, just come to Jingren Palace as an errand."
