"Since your Majesty has said so, I won't be polite and will definitely come to disturb you more often in the future."
Guo Guiren seemed unable to understand the meaning of Nian Shilan's words.
Nian Shilan looked at Guo Guiren, but for a moment he really didn't understand what her purpose was.
Nian Shilan didn't chase her away, he just kept talking to her.
Seeing that it was getting late, Nian Shilan asked Guo Guiren to stay for dinner.
Fortunately, Guo Guiren was sensible this time and did not stay.
By the time Guo Guiren left, Nian Shilan was really tired.
"My Majesty, this Guo Guo is too ignorant. Your Majesty, you have been talking to her for so long, and she doesn't care whether you are tired or not."
Songzhi pressed Nian Shilan's shoulders distressedly and said, "She won't come back tomorrow, will she?"
"Looking at it like this, I'm afraid it's coming."
Nian Shilan rubbed his temples and said: "It takes a lot of energy to talk to her. Who wants to hear about her family affairs? When she comes again tomorrow, you go and tell Concubine Xi. Concubine Xi is smart, so I'm afraid she has a way to do it. Treat her."
"Don't worry, my dear, I will take care of it."
Nian Shilan waved his hand after listening to Songzhi's words: "That's all, I'm going to lie down for a while. Let's have dinner later."
"Mother, the weather is hot. If you use it later, it will be stale. Eat some and then rest."
Songzhi looked at Nian Shilan as if she didn't want to eat, so she quickly said: "Princess Shuyue and Princess Minghui haven't eaten yet, why don't you accompany them to eat some together?"
Nian Shilan understood what Songzhi meant and smiled: "Okay, then let's pass on the meal as you said."
As soon as Songzhi heard Nian Shilan's words, she was so happy that she hurried down to prepare.
She couldn't sleep anymore, so Nian Shilan went to see Shu Yue and Minghui.
"Eniang."
Shu Yue and Minghui were playing in the yard. It was cool outside at this time, so neither of the two little girls wanted to go inside.
Shu Yue was older and ran faster. When she saw Nian Shilan, she ran towards Nian Shilan.
Minghui saw her sister running in front of Nian Shilan first, but she couldn't catch up behind her. Then she saw Nian Shilan hugging her sister, and she became anxious and sat on the ground.
"Minghui, wake up quickly."
Nian Shilan said somewhat dumbfounded.
The wet nurse next to her saw Minghui sitting on the ground and quickly went to help her.
But Minghui's temper was as bad as Nian Shilan's, and she couldn't be helped up by anyone. She just wanted Nian Shilan to come over and hug her.
When Shu Yue saw her sister sitting on the ground and refused to get up, she struggled to get off Nian Shilan's body.
Although Nian Shilan let go of Shu Yue, she did not embrace Minghui.
"Minghui, if you talk to my mother nicely, my mother will hug you. But if you sit here and don't get up, my mother and sister will go in for dinner."
Nian Shilan knew how bad his temper was, so he didn't want Minghui to develop the same character as him.
She even thought about the fate of Princess Chaogui, and didn't want her daughter to embark on the road to marriage.
So Shilan had to ask her to control her temper since she was a child.
But she forgot that Minghui was only a little over one year old...
Minghui didn't understand what Nian Shilan meant, but she knew that E Niang didn't hug her, curled her lips, and then started to cry loudly.
Minghui's crying frightened Shu Yue.
Shu Yue ran over to help Minghui up: "Sister, get up."
"No..."
Minghui got angry and pushed Shu Yue away.
Nian Shilan was really angry at this sight.
"Shu Yue, are you okay?"
Nian Shilan hurried over and helped Shu Yue up. Shu Yue shook her head and said nothing.
"Minghui, if you don't want to get up, then just sit here."
Nian Shilan picked up Shu Yue and was about to go inside, but Minghui cried louder.
Songzhi looked extremely distressed, and just as she was about to go over and comfort her, she heard Su Peisheng's voice coming from outside.
"The Emperor has arrived."
"What's wrong? I heard crying from so far away."
The emperor asked loudly before he came in.
"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."
"Hello, Emperor Ama."
Shu Yue also whispered along with Nian Shilan.
As soon as the emperor came in, he saw Minghui still sitting on the ground crying, so he quickly stepped forward and hugged her.
Although Minghui is young, when someone picks her up, she knows that she must have a backer.
He put his hands around the emperor's neck and stopped crying, but he still twitched, which made the emperor extremely distressed.
"Huang Ama is here, don't cry anymore."
Nian Shilan looked at the emperor and couldn't say anything else, so he quickly led the people into the palace.
"This Minghui, at such a young age, has a very bad temper."
Nian Shilan nodded Minghui's head and said, "Because Shu Yue ran ahead, she sat on the ground by herself. No one could help her. Shu Yue went to coax her and pushed Shu Yue down."
"Haha, he must be as powerful as you were when you were a kid."
The emperor didn't feel anything when he heard it. Instead, he looked at Minghui with a look of relief.
Nian Shilan understood that the emperor naturally did not understand women's sorrow, so she did not ask him to understand.
Since he is here, he just doesn't care.
"Is your Majesty ready for dinner?"
Nian Shilan asked, changing the subject.
"Not yet, I originally planned to come and use it with you."
The emperor sat down with Minghui in his arms. The wet nurse wanted to come forward and take Minghui away, but Minghui didn't let go at all.
"Just leave her here."
The emperor was even more happy when he saw that Minghui didn't want to leave him.
"Ye Concubine has just found out that she is pregnant, but the emperor did not accompany her. Instead, he came to have dinner with me. Your Majesty, you must have something to talk to me about."
Doesn't Nian Shilan understand the emperor yet? The fact that he can come to see him at this time is a problem in itself.
The emperor listened to Nian Shilan's words and said with a smile: "I can't hide anything from you."
"I am all ears and listen attentively."
Nian Shilan said as he handed the soup to the emperor.
"Today, another official came forward and said that the harem is empty. The middle palace has no owner, and people always worry about it."
The emperor drank the soup and said: "It has not been long since Ulanara was dethroned. You are now the imperial concubine, just like the deputy queen. I want to hear your opinion."
Nian Shilan raised his eyebrows, what can I say?
It's not me either, so why should I care about you?
But you can't say this. Nian Shilan frowned and nodded and said, "I feel the same way. The position of the middle palace cannot be left without an owner."
The emperor paused after listening to Nian Shilan's words, but did not speak.
When Nian Shilan saw this, he understood that the emperor was waiting for his next words.
Nian Shilan didn't care what the emperor meant, and continued: "Your Majesty, you know that I have never cared about such trivial matters, and I don't read much. How can I manage such a large harem well?"
