When Gu Bin heard what Nian Shilan said, she thought that this thing was the right gift, and at least Nian Shilan would remember it.
"It's just a gadget, as long as I don't mind it."
"There is nothing to do today, so you should go back early. In half a month, Zhun Geer will go to Beijing. By then, all the palaces will have to meet Princess Chaogui, so everyone should go back and prepare. "
In fact, what Gu Bin did was not very smart.
After everyone left, Nian Shilan asked Songzhi to throw the sachet aside.
"She said so blatantly that she couldn't come empty-handed to express gratitude. Didn't she offend everyone?"
Even Songzhi could see it, but Gu Bin was still feeling proud when she left.
Nian Shilan handed the sachet in her hand to Songzhi and said, "She thought that I was now on the throne as the new queen. She was probably proud of having flattered me so early. But she didn't know that she had offended the whole family. Harem. But that’s fine, it’s not too important, so we don’t need to pay too much attention to it.”
"Empress Shengming."
"Your Majesty, when Concubine Jing left just now, you gave me something to stuff."
At this time Zhou Ninghai walked in and whispered.
Did Feng Ruozhao stuff something into Zhou Ninghai?
Nian Shilan was a little surprised. She glanced at Songzhi, and Songzhi hurriedly took the things from Zhou Ninghai's hand.
Nian Shilan took it over and saw that it was a small jade pendant.
Nian Shilan looked at it repeatedly, but there was nothing special about it.
But Feng Ruozhao wouldn't do such an unprovoked thing, right?
"Did the Emperor give me a jade pendant before? Find it out."
Nian Shilan thought of the jade pendant that the emperor wore before and then gave it to him. He wondered if the two were related.
Songzhi hurriedly looked for the jade pendant, and Nian Shilan called Zhou Ninghai over.
"Come over and see what's different about this jade pendant?"
"My servant just read it, there is nothing wrong with it?"
Zhou Ninghai would not bring something to Nian Shilan first, in case it was poisonous, so he had already checked it carefully.
"This servant only thinks that Concubine Jing's behavior is a bit strange, as if she is afraid of being discovered by someone."
"Who did she leave with just now?"
Nian Shilan also felt strange when he heard Zhou Ninghai's words. If Feng Ruozhao wanted to give something or say something, he would just give it to him first. Why should he give it to Zhou Ninghai?
"Leaving with Concubine Hui and Concubine Qian."
It sounds like there’s nothing wrong with the two of them, right?
"Mother, I found it."
Songzhi came over holding the jade pendant awarded by the emperor.
Nian Shilan took it over and compared it. The two jade pendants were not the same size.
The piece the emperor rewarded was larger, and this piece was smaller.
However, upon closer inspection, the lines on the two jade pendants seem to be the same.
"I remember that this jade pendant was once the favorite of Queen Chunyuan. The emperor wore it close to his body. How can there be the same one?"
"Could someone want to use this jade pendant to cause trouble, and Concubine Jing would find out?"
Songzhi's words were exactly what Nian Shilan was thinking.
Because besides this, Nian Shilan really couldn't think of any other reason.
"Tomorrow, after all the palaces come to pay their respects, take Concubine Jing to Minghui's room."
No matter what, you still have to ask Feng Ruozhao.
"Your Majesty, the origin of this item is unknown, so I'd better give it to my slave for safekeeping first."
For example, everything Shilan used this year was not careless at all. Songzhi took care of everything.
Nian Shilan knew Songzhi was careful, so he handed it to her first.
"I'll go pay my respects to the Queen Mother later."
Nian Shilan thought for a while and said, "It's time for us to go see the sixth elder brother. This is the only elder brother in the palace now."
"Brother Xi and the fifth elder brother are both raised outside. I'm afraid that the sixth elder brother will be in a difficult situation."
Songzhi said.
"What's so hard about it? He's still my elder brother after all, so he should be under such pressure."
Nian Shilan stood up and said: "Go and hug Shu Yue and Minghui, let's go to Shoukang Palace."
"yes."
Nian Shilan walked to Shoukang with his two children. Halfway there, he met Wang Yaosheng from Chonghua Palace.
"Greetings to the Queen."
"Get up. Where is Wang promised to go?"
Although these new ladies who entered the palace were a little more arrogant at that time, after Nian Shilan's beating at that time, they had long since lost their arrogance.
"Back to the Queen, I have nothing to do and want to sit with Guo Guiren."
Wang promised to answer calmly, thinking about it, there was nothing to lie about.
"Guo Guiren's place is quiet. It's a good idea to go and sit there to save her from loneliness."
Nian Shilan didn't say much and let her go after the first call.
But when Wang agreed to leave, Songzhi took a few more glances at her back.
"What's wrong?"
Nian Shilan saw Songzhi turning around frequently and stopped.
"My slave feels something is wrong, but I can't tell what is wrong."
Songzhi thought for a while and said: "My dear, when Guo Guiren entered the palace, only she and Gu Bin were nobles, and Gu Bin was banned by you at that time. It can be said that among the new beautiful ladies who entered the palace, Guo Guiren was the most noble. It can be regarded as a standout. But now that you have been promoted to Gu Pin, you have not been promoted to Guo Guoren. Everyone can see that you are dissatisfied with Guo Guiren. But Wang Yao is originally from Sui Yuxuan, how can you still Are you rushing to Guo Guiren's place?"
Nian Shilan was very pleased to hear Songzhi's words. Songzhi was not unintelligent, but he usually spent all his energy on himself, so he tended to neglect other things.
"So why do you think we met her by chance?"
Nian Shilan smiled and said, "This is not the only way for her to go to Changchun Palace."
"Did she let us know on purpose?"
Songzhi said in surprise: "Then she is waiting here."
"I will definitely go to pay my respects to the Queen Mother in the past few days. Whenever I see her, she will just say to go to Guo Guiren's place to sit, right? As for whether she went or not, we will not pursue it at all. .”
Nian Shilan walked forward as he spoke: "That's all. With her thoughts, I'm afraid Concubine Gu won't be able to subjugate her."
"Anyway, it's all their own palace affairs, so you don't have to worry."
Songzhi said nonchalantly: "Concubine Gu is the head of the first palace. If she can't control the people in her palace, then I'm afraid her position as head is inappropriate."
Nian Shilan really didn't want to take care of it. The concubines in Suiyuxuan couldn't give birth to children, and they couldn't make any big splash.
