And now Ye Guiren also hates the queen. If he knows the whereabouts of her family members, Ye Guiren will not let the queen go without having to do anything.
Although I don't want to cooperate with Ye Guiren, we can still get together if we have the same goal.
Zhou Ninghai knew after listening to Nian Shilan's words that Nian Shilan must have known something, otherwise he would not have allowed himself to ask such a question.
"Your Majesty, this slave will go right away."
After Zhou Ninghai finished speaking, he went down.
"Songzhi, go and ask people outside to keep an eye on Tong Jia's house to see what they are doing."
Since there is no news from my brother, I can only go to Beijing to see if there is anything abnormal.
"Mother, our people were already keeping an eye on Tong Jia's house last night. Don't worry, as soon as there is news, someone will respond immediately."
Songzhi quickly answered.
Nian Shilan nodded. Even if she had any energy now, she would still be looking for things to do with her brother. She would have a long time to deal with the queen.
After searching for a day and a night, Nian Gengyao was nowhere to be found.
Nian Shilan couldn't sit still in the palace.
This whole day, Nian Shilan had almost no water, and could not sleep at night.
Finally, on the afternoon of the third day, news came in from outside.
"Mother, there is news."
Zhou Ninghai looked overjoyed.
"what news?"
When Nian Shilan heard Zhou Ninghai's words, she knew that her brother was fine, so she quickly stood up and walked out.
"My dear, don't be anxious, walk slowly."
Songzhi supported Nian Shilan, fearing that she would fall.
"Have you heard any news about your brother? Where is he now? Is he injured?"
Nian Shilan couldn't listen to Songzhi's words at all, and her mind was filled with the whereabouts of her brother.
Zhou Ninghai nodded and said, "Yes, there is news about the general."
Zhou Ninghai helped Nian Shilan as he spoke, and then continued: "Although people haven't thought about it yet, our people have discovered the Nian family's unique code left by the general, and they have followed the code Went to find you. They knew that you were thinking about me, so they hurriedly asked someone to come back and tell me."
"It's good to have news, it's good to have news."
Nian Shilan seemed to be comforting himself and said, "Since my brother can still leave a code, I guess his life will not be in danger."
"Yes, your Majesty, you can rest assured now."
Zhou Ninghai said: "Our people came back and said that the emperor's people are probably trying their best to find the general. It doesn't look like a lie."
"The emperor knows that I will send someone to find my brother, so he won't just do it for show."
Nian Shilan said in a serious tone: "Go and tell them that if they find my brother, they must report it to me as soon as possible."
"yes."
After Zhou Ninghai finished speaking, he turned back as if he thought of something again.
"What's wrong?"
Nian Shilan looked at Zhou Ninghai and asked.
"Mother, there is some news from the Shenxing Department."
Zhou Ninghai said this in an extremely low voice.
"Tell it like it is."
Nian Shilan was not very surprised.
"Jiang Fuhai couldn't bear the torture and confessed that there was indeed something fishy about the death of Queen Chunyuan. But he didn't know what the Queen had done, because these things were all done by Jianqiu, and he himself had no idea at all. .”
Zhou Ninghai actually didn't believe it. After all, Jiang Fuhai was considered a confidant of the queen. How could he not be allowed to do such a thing?
"Do you think it's credible?"
Nian Shilan smiled extremely sarcastically.
Jiang Fuhai was responsible for everything in his previous life. How come he didn't know anything about it in this life?
"Slave, of course I don't believe it."
Zhou Ninghai didn't hide anything. If he didn't believe it, he just didn't believe it.
"But it doesn't matter whether he says it or not. Find a few people to go to the palace and pass the news on. Just say that Jiang Fuhai couldn't stand the punishment and confessed a lot of things, including the matter of Queen Chunyuan."
Nian Shilan didn't want to ask anymore. Even if he asked, there was no way to explain it to the emperor, right? It's better to let Jiang Fuhai take the initiative to speak.
"By the way, where are Jiang Fuhai's parents now?"
"Already locked in prison."
Zhou Ninghai replied: "Do you want to take Jiang Fuhai to meet them?"
"Of course I want to meet you, but not now. You should go make arrangements for the palace first."
After Nian Shilan finished speaking, he sent Zhou Ninghai away.
None of the people sent by the emperor had any information about Nian Gengyao's whereabouts, so they couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"Your Majesty, in addition to our people looking for General Nian, people from the Nian Mansion should also be looking for him."
Xia Yi said: "And it should be the imperial concubine's order."
"This is human nature."
The emperor didn't take it to heart: "The imperial concubine and Gengyao of the same year have a close relationship. Now that Gengyao's whereabouts are unknown, it would be wrong for her to be indifferent."
"Wei Chen means, does General Nian have any special contact with the Nian family that us outsiders don't know about?"
As the leader of the Blood Drops, Xia Yi has a high IQ and can notice many little things.
"When Wei Chen led people to search for General Nian, although he did not find him, he found many strange symbols that were not like those used by outsiders. I wonder if they are the unique contact information of the Nian family."
After listening to Xia Yi's words, the emperor thought for a while and said, "Are the Nian family members still looking for you outside? Separate some people and go in the same direction with them."
"It's Wei Chen. Let's make arrangements now."
As soon as Xia Yi left, the emperor thought about the possibility that Xia Yi had mentioned just now.
"Su Peisheng, where is the imperial concubine now?"
Su Peisheng heard the emperor telling him to come in quickly.
"Back to the emperor, I heard that the imperial concubine has not eaten or eaten for the past two days and cannot sleep peacefully. I don't think she can go anywhere except Yikun Palace."
Su Peisheng listened to some of what Xia Yi said to the emperor just now at the door, so when the emperor asked Nian Shilan, he almost had an idea.
"Go and pass her over."
"twitter."
After Su Peisheng said that, he hurried to Yikun Palace.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has sent you a message to go to the Yangxin Hall."
Su Peisheng looked at Nian Shilan's pale face and thought that it was probably because of his mental and physical exhaustion in the past few days.
"Your Majesty, does your Majesty want me to come over at this time? But is there any news about my brother?"
Nian Shilan's face was happy, but she didn't think so in her heart.
I just got the news about my brother based on the Nian family's secret code. I'm afraid there is no news from the emperor yet.
"This slave doesn't know."
Su Peisheng really didn't know, so he couldn't talk nonsense, but then he said: "I heard that Xia Yi seemed to have talked about some secret talisman with the emperor just now."
When Nian Shilan heard this, he realized that Xia Yi had really underestimated him before.
However, after Su Peisheng reminded him, Nian Shilan also thought that if Xia Yi had noticed this, he would have thought that this was the Nian family's secret code, and then the emperor would have people follow him.
"Then I'll ask my father-in-law to wait for me. I'll go change my clothes and then go with my father-in-law."
"My dear, please help yourself."
Su Peisheng was not stupid, and he understood immediately that Nian Shilan understood what he said and found a way to go.
Nian Shilan approached the inner hall and quickly pulled Songzhi: "Just let Lingzhi accompany me later. You go find Zhou Ninghai and ask him to inform our people. Don't look for brother yet. They are all focused on Tong. Jiafu and Uranalafu.”
"But none of us are watching the Uranala Mansion?"
Upon hearing this, Songzhi thought there was news from the Queen.
"It doesn't matter, just let them set aside some people to keep an eye on him today. Then let Nian Yi stay alone so as not to attract anyone's attention, and then go find his brother."
Nianyi is a close confidant of the Nian family and has been a slave of the Nian family for generations.
However, even though they were slaves, the Nian family took special care of their family, allowing them to get rid of their slavery status and become retainers long ago.
Moreover, Nian Yiyi had been helping him with things for so many years, and Nian Shilan felt at ease with him.
"Okay, then when the queen leaves, I will come over immediately."
Songzhi knew that this was a big deal, so she didn't dare to delay.
Nian Shilan changed her clothes and followed Su Peisheng with Ganoderma lucidum.
When Su Peisheng saw that Nian Shilan didn't bring Songzhi, he understood in his heart.
"When we arrive at the Yangxin Hall in a while, Miss Ganoderma lucidum won't have to go in with the imperial concubine."
Nian Shilan smiled after listening to Su Peisheng's words: "Thank you, father-in-law, for the suggestion."
The emperor waited in the Yangxin Hall for a long time, and Nian Shilan arrived belatedly.
"I have been restless these past few days and my face is haggard. It is really not suitable for me to meet the emperor. So I came here to meet the emperor after washing myself. It is my fault to keep the emperor waiting for a long time."
As soon as Nian Shilan saw the emperor, he immediately explained why he came now.
"You have worked hard these days."
The emperor came over and pulled Nian Shilan up and said, "I heard from the people who were sent out that you also sent people out to look for him?"
"Yes, if I do nothing, I really can't do it."
Nian Shilan said with a wry smile: "I haven't sent any news to Nian Mansion now. I really don't know how to speak."
"There is no news, but it is good news."
The emperor said: "As long as people are alive, they can always be found."
"Yes, I think so too."
Nian Shilan squeezed out a few tears as he spoke: "Brother has suffered a lot in these years. If he hadn't wanted to come back earlier to see Minghui, he wouldn't have come back in such a hurry. In the final analysis, it's my fault."
After Nian Shilan said this, she looked like she had no news about Nian Gengyao. The emperor didn't know how to ask her about the secret code.
"It's your fault."
The emperor listened to Nian Shilan's words and said comfortingly: "Xia Yi has already replied just now. He already has a general direction. Just relax."
"Really? That would be great."
Nian Shilan listened to the emperor's words with surprise and joy on his face, and could not tell anything else: "To be honest with the emperor, I have sent many people to look for my brother during this time, but they have no clue at all. I don’t know where to start looking for him. Otherwise, it must be yours, the emperor’s. Someone chosen by the emperor himself will definitely be good.”
Nian Shilan didn't even need to ask the emperor, so he took the initiative to talk about it. He sent people out, but found nothing.
"They just have a direction."
The emperor nodded.
"I also know that it's a little too difficult for them, but..."
Nian Shilan stopped and glanced at the emperor. The emperor thought she was going to mention the secret code: "But what?"
"But these days, I have thought about it over and over again. I have decided that someone who dares to kill a court official so blatantly must be someone from my Nian family. I am afraid it is only the Tong Jia family."
Nian Shilan said with an indignant look: "I know that the emperor grew up under the knee of Queen Mother Xiao Yiren, so he is very tolerant of the people in Tong Jia's house. But if the brother they harmed at this time really loses his life, the emperor will Think about it, what would the soldiers in the northwest think?"
"They will think it was me who gave the order."
It was not that the emperor had not thought about the consequences if something happened to Nian Gengyao.
"Moreover, Tong Jia first wanted to harm her sister-in-law but failed, and then she decided to take action on my concubine's brother."
When Nian Shilan said this, his expression was very similar to the way he used to be arrogant and unreasonable. The emperor only thought that she was angry and showed her true nature, so he didn't think much about it.
"What you said makes sense."
It's not unreasonable. In fact, even the emperor has thought so.
So he nodded along with Nian Shilan's words: "Yesterday afternoon, I already informed Longkodo to enter the palace. Although he was full of surprise and said he didn't know, but I think even if he didn't do it, I'm afraid He also knows something inside."
"I know that this matter has something to do with Princess Tong Jia. Princess Tong Jia is not easy to get along with at first sight."
Nian Shilan stood up angrily, not caring about his image: "Since I have already decided to seek peace, she still refuses to let go of the Nian family. Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me."
"Look at your temper, why are you still so impatient."
The emperor said this to Nian Shilan, but he stretched out his hand in the direction of Nian Shilan: "Didn't I say that this matter will be thoroughly investigated. If the envoy is really Princess Tong Jia, I won’t forgive you either.”
Naturally, Nian Shilan didn't really want the emperor to give him any guarantee at this time, so he took the emperor's hand and sat down.
"Speaking of which, our Nian family has no contact with the Tong Jia clan at all. The relationship between the concubine and Princess Tong Jia is even more distant. I don't know how the concubine offended them and how she let Tong Jia go. You are so concerned about your concubine that you won’t let her go.”
Nian Shilan wiped her tears as she spoke: "Originally, I thought that by marrying their daughter, Nian Fu would be considered a relative, but I didn't expect that they had no intention of seeking peace."
Nian Shilan made it clear that he married the Tong Jia family to seek peace, but they had no intention of doing so. If anything happened in the future, he would not be blamed.
"Okay, these haven't been determined yet. If it's not Tong Jia's family then, all your anger will be in vain."
The emperor didn't care whether Nian Shilan really wanted to seek peace, but what he cared about was what Nian Shilan said. The Nian family and the Tong Jia family had nothing to do with each other.
What Nian Shilan said is correct. How come the Tong Jia clan, who are so good, have to fight against the Nian family? But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't really have anything to do with it.
