Nian Shilan thought for a while and then continued: "These two people should not be underestimated."
"What the empress said is absolutely true."
Zhen Huan nodded and said, "Does the empress have a clue? Who is it?"
Nian Shilan shook his head.
It's not that she doesn't have any guesses, it's just that she doesn't have to worry about things she's not sure about by saying them out loud.
"No matter who it is, since she can do it, don't blame me for not being able to tolerate her."
"If your Majesty comes to my concubine's place usefully, just give me my instructions."
Zhen Huan knew that Nian Shilan must have his own thoughts, so she didn't say them all.
"Seeing that the weather is getting cold again, there are many new people in the palace this year, so we must make it lively."
Nian Shilan suddenly changed the subject, making Zhen Huan a little uncomfortable.
Nian Shilan looked at Zhen Huan's unresponsive look and smiled and said, "Life has to pass, right?"
"Yes, you always have to look forward to life."
Zhen Huan then smiled and said, "What are your plans, Madam?"
"What plans can I have? I think Minghui is well now, and it can be regarded as God's blessing. All sisters, please listen to the show."
"Then I will definitely go there early."
Zhen Huan stood up with a smile: "Then I will go back first and won't disturb the queen."
Zhen Huan left Yikun Palace and thought for a while before taking her back to the palace. Instead, she went to Qixiang Palace.
"Songzhi, please pass this on. In three days, I will invite the concubines from each palace to watch the show, and there will be no need to come to pay my respects in the morning."
Nian Shilan called Songzhi over and said, "Then I'll go back to the Queen Mother and tell her that I want to have breakfast with her elderly person tomorrow morning. We'll see if it's convenient."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
Songzhi listened to Nian Shilan's words but did not rush out: "Mother, Madam Xingui came just now, but you and Concubine Xi were talking, so she didn't come in."
"oh?"
Nian Shilan heard something wrong when listening to Songzhi's words: "Is there anything wrong?"
"There's nothing wrong with her, but I always think she looks a little weird today."
Songzhi said in a low voice: "On weekdays, when Xingui comes over, if you are busy, she will be the first to see the two princesses. But today, it seems that she does not want to see Princess Minghui, and hurriedly went to see Princess Shu Yue. .”
Songzhi is usually the most cautious and will never make a mistake.
Now that something happened to Ye Bincai, she couldn't tolerate Nian Shilan not paying attention to it.
"Are you worried about Shu Yue?"
Nian Shilan didn't know whether to comfort Songzhi or comfort herself.
"If you are worried about Princess Shu Yue, why not come and see her early, at this time?"
Apparently even Songzhi didn't believe this reason.
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Nian Shilan stood up as he spoke, and Songzhi quickly stepped forward to help him.
But Nian Shilan only took a few steps and turned back.
"Go and bring Shu Yue over and tell her that I want to see the princess."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
Songzhi didn't know what Nian Shilan was thinking, so she left quickly.
After a while, Songzhi came over with Shu Yue in her arms, followed by Xinguiren.
"Eniang."
As soon as Shu Yue saw Nian Shilan, she was so happy that she wanted to get off Songzhi, and Nian Shilan took her over with a smile.
"Greetings to the imperial concubine."
Mr. Xin Gui saluted from behind and said hello: "When I first arrived, the concubine was talking to Concubine Xi. I didn't dare to disturb her, so I went to see Shu Yue first."
"sit down."
Nian Shilan said nothing to Xinguiren, but Xinguiren looked at Nian Shilan's expression and knew that she was not very happy now.
"I came here in a hurry. I also have something to talk to the empress."
Xin Guiren looked at Nian Shilan's expression without changing and said, "Kang Guiren just went to Qixiang Palace to find a concubine."
"Kang Guiren has been in the palace for a long time. Although he doesn't like to walk around with others on weekdays, it doesn't necessarily mean he has a bad temper. It's good to walk around."
Nian Shilan looked like he didn't understand. He just coaxed Shu Yue and chatted with Xin Guiren.
"Your Majesty, I don't dare to have anything to do with her."
Mr. Xingui quickly said: "She came to see my concubine. She only said that she and the empress had some misunderstandings. She said that people from Yikun Palace colluded with people from her palace to poison Princess Minghui. She wanted to explain, but you don't want to hear it. So I want my concubine to come over and help convey this."
"Then what?"
Nian Shilan asked casually.
"Concubine still has some eyesight, so naturally she refuses."
Xin Gui is not stupid. As soon as Ye Bin died, Kang Gui rushed over to clear up the relationship. No one believed it.
"But she said that Shu Yue and Minghui were together every day. If Shu Yue was poisoned and was not discovered in time, wouldn't it be delayed. I thought about it again and again, so I came in a hurry."
"So, you are not in a hurry to see me."
Nian Shilan understood Xinguiren's meaning, but did not accept it.
"Although I am worried about the princess, I know that the empress will definitely make a decision in her heart."
Xingui said this very skillfully.
Nian Shilan smiled: "You don't have to worry about Shu Yue from now on. In two days, I will invite all the concubines to watch a play, so you should go early."
Xingui knew that Nian Shilan didn't want to talk to him anymore, and it would be useless to say anything else, so he couldn't talk anymore.
"Yes, I will definitely pass by early."
After saying that, Mr. Xingui left.
