"Wei Chen naturally recognizes the imperial concubine, but..."
"Nothing but,"
Nian Shilan interrupted the speaker: "If you are sensible, just let me in happily. Otherwise, even if I kill you, do you think the emperor will blame me?"
As soon as Nian Shilan finished speaking, the expression of the person who was blocking Nian Shilan changed.
Shen Meizhuang listened to Nian Shilan's words in the carriage and quickly got down.
But before the person stopping them could hesitate, someone came out.
Nian Shilan took a look and saw that it was Xiao Lizi.
"Greetings to the imperial concubine."
Xiao Lizi winked at Nian Shilan. Although Nian Shilan didn't understand it very well, she knew that he probably didn't want her to enter the palace: "My Lady, you came back so suddenly, and the Yikun Palace has not been cleaned up yet, otherwise Let’s go back to Nian Mansion to rest first.”
Nian Shilan wanted to say something after listening to Xiao Lizi's words, but she didn't expect Bamboo Breath to come out as well.
"My slave, please pay your respects to the imperial concubine."
"Aunt Sun, please get up."
When Shen Meizhuang saw Zhu Xi, he quickly stepped forward.
"Auntie, didn't the Queen Mother urgently summon me back?"
Zhuxi nodded and said: "Yes, the Queen Mother has sent word that you are back, so this servant is here to pick you up."
"Then what Aunt Sun means is that since the Queen Mother didn't send word that I'm back, I won't be able to enter the palace today, right?"
Nian Shilan was now sure that there was a problem in the palace, and she didn't care whether she entered or not.
"The imperial concubine is joking. This servant is just here to take Concubine Hui to Shoukang Palace. You will naturally go back to Yikun Palace."
Nian Shilan heard Zhu Xi specifically emphasize Yikun Palace, so naturally he could no longer go to Shoukang Palace.
"Then I will go and pay my respects to the Queen Mother another day."
After saying this, Nian Shilan led people into the palace, but before entering the palace, he left Nian Yi behind.
"You don't have to enter the palace."
"I obey the order."
Nian Shilan and Nian Yi both knew that it would be difficult to get out of the palace if they entered it.
Someone must always be left to pass the news to Nian Gengyao and the emperor.
However, Nian Shilan was assassinated, so the emperor may have received the news.
In this way, Nian Shilan returned to Yikun Palace with his people and Xiao Lizi.
Along the way, Nian Shilan didn't notice anything unusual in the palace.
When he returned to Yikun Palace, he asked Xiao Lizi to close the palace door and not allow anyone to enter or exit.
"What's going on? Do you know what happened?"
Nian Shilan felt at ease with the people in her palace, so she closed the door and asked.
"Your Majesty, if I guess correctly, the Queen Mother must have been kidnapped."
"What?"
Nian Shilan was shocked when she heard Xiao Lizi's words.
No wonder.
"The day before yesterday, Mr. Longkodo went to the palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother, and then the Queen Mother fell ill."
Xiao Lizi said in a low voice: "And no concubines are allowed to come over to serve you. When I heard that the Queen Mother went to tell Concubine Hui to return to the palace, I quickly asked someone to guard the palace gate. I was afraid that if you came back, I would not let you in. You enter the palace. Unexpectedly, they don’t want you to enter the palace at all, so I couldn’t say much just now.”
Nian Shilan asked why Xiao Lizi came so quickly, and asked him to go back to Nian Mansion to rest.
"Is there any news from Concubine Duan?"
Nian Shilan thought that Concubine Duan had not left the palace. If something happened, she shouldn't know about it, right?
"Last night, Concubine Duan was reported to be in Shoukang Palace. Now, there is no news."
Xiao Lizi continued: "Before you come back, the Queen Mother issued another decree that no concubines in the palace are allowed to move around at will."
Nian Shilan was shocked when she heard what Xiao Lizi said, fearing that it was something bad.
"Zhou Ninghai, go and release the carrier pigeon from the corridor."
Nian Shilan said: "No need to release anything, there are other homing pigeons all released."
I didn't put my things away because I was afraid of being intercepted. Even if they caught me, they wouldn't know what it meant.
But Nian Gengyao is not necessarily so.
Nian Yi will definitely talk about what happened at the palace gate when he returns, and Nian Gengyao will also contact the emperor.
They don't want them to enter the palace, presumably because they are afraid that they will do something bad.
