When I opened my eyes, Zhen Huan knelt in front of me and had a miscarriage

After reading the letter, Nian Shilan's eyes were filled with tears.

She quickly covered the tears on her face with a piece of silk, raised her eyes sparkling with tears, and looked at Xie Yun.

"Thank you for your hard work. My family is not in the capital now. In order to avoid the emperor's suspicion, I have dispersed many of my loyal followers. Now, I can only rely on you to maintain the connection with my brother."

Xie Yun bowed and said, "I am willing to go through fire and water for you. General Nian saved my life. Now I am lucky to be able to serve the Nian family."

After saying this, he took out a small purse from his sleeve and held it in both hands.

Songzhi hurriedly moved, took the purse from his hand and presented it to Nian Shilan.

"This is..." Nian Shilan looked at the purse.

Xie Yun said: "This is General Nian's personal money sent to you as a gift to your Highness."

Nian Shilan looked at the small purse and felt a little sad.

She thought to herself that when her brother sent her silver in the past, it was either sealed silver notes or several boxes of silver.

Now that her brother has fallen on hard times, he knows that it is not appropriate for her to stay in the palace, but he still wants to send money to the palace.

Nian Shilan felt a pang of sourness in her heart. She was already a royal concubine, but in her brother's eyes, she was still like a little girl.

She shook her head. "I don't lack silver. Songzhi will give some banknotes to Master Xie later. You can use some of it for yourself, and you can ask someone to send the rest to my brother."

Xie Yun shook his head and said meaningfully, "Your Majesty, please take a look at the contents of the purse before making a decision."

Nian Shilan was curious and raised her hand to let Songzhi open it.

Songzhi opened it and shook the contents of the purse onto the table.

It turned out to be dozens of real gold ingots.

Nian Shilan was a little surprised. She thought her brother was in a very embarrassing situation, but she didn't expect him to be so generous.

"General Nian ordered that since the Empress is now a noble concubine in the palace, it will cost a lot of money to arrange things and send servants. These are for the Empress to use for the time being, and the general will order another batch to be sent in the twelfth month."

After Xie Yun finished speaking, he said goodbye.

Nian Shilan was shocked and then moved.

My brother's situation outside the palace was difficult, and I was afraid that he had to take care of more things, so he saved money to send her to the palace.

Nian Gengyao always treated his sister very well.

……

E Min committed suicide, so there was naturally no conclusion regarding the murder of Zhen Yuandao's family.

Since the investigation could not be continued, the matter could only be hastily dealt with. The people in charge simply pushed and shoved each other and simply put the blame on the Guarjia family.

It was said that he was tortured in prison and committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

In this way, on the surface, the queen's suspicion was cleared.

But the queen was not satisfied.

"How could this happen! Why would the Queen Mother take action?" Yixiu was standing in the hall, and when she heard the news, her eyes were filled with despair and irritation.

Jianqiu explained anxiously, "The Queen Mother is also worried about Your Majesty. She did this for Your Majesty, which at least can help Your Majesty solve her current problem."

"But I really didn't do this!" Yixiu waved her sleeves.

The Queen Mother must have thought that she was the one who did it and was afraid that she would be found out, so she solved the problem for her first.

She is currently under house arrest, and has not been able to communicate with the Queen Mother in a timely manner, leading to this misunderstanding.

Yixiu really suffered a huge loss.

"But, Your Majesty, does it really matter who did it? The important thing is that the Emperor will finally stop suspecting you. Besides, Zhen Yuandao's family was fine, it was just his wife who was injured. The Emperor's suspicion of the Empress for a mere woman has already angered the Empress Dowager and the ministers, so it is reasonable for the Empress Dowager to take action."

Jianqiu bit her lip and spoke tremblingly.

Hearing this, Yixiu was shaking with excitement, and with a flick of her sleeves she threw the cups on the table to the ground.

"How could I not know?!"

Jianqiu was so frightened that she kept silent.

"You don't understand the emperor. You all don't understand the emperor. Only I..."

She knew that the emperor had long suspected her. The matter involving Zhen Yuandao was a small matter, but the emperor's suspicion of her involved Chun Yuan, which was a big deal.

The emperor is dissatisfied with not finding the answer he wanted and will definitely continue investigating.

I'm afraid that what the emperor wants to investigate is the cause of Chun Yuan's death!

Thinking of this, Yixiu's body softened and she sat on the couch, supporting her head with one hand.

Her head began to hurt again, her face full of pain, "How could I not know the pros and cons of this, but the emperor has already suspected me, I am afraid..."

Jianqiu stepped forward quickly, "No, madam, you still have the Third Prince, and the Third Prince is the Emperor's eldest son."

"Yes, I also have the Third Prince!" Yixiu repeated, as if to calm herself down.

……

Brother's place.

"Third brother, the teacher has handed down the manuscript. Have you memorized it all?"

The Fourth Prince took out some pastries and placed them on the table silently, occasionally looking up to see the expression of the person in front of him.

The Third Prince waved his hand and said, "That word is so complicated, I can't recite it. Never mind."

"Third brother doesn't want to carry me anymore?" Fourth Prince raised his eyebrows.

The Third Prince leaned back and started eating the snacks. He said lazily, "You are still here. You can just remind me quietly like before."

"Okay, Third Brother, try this. It's freshly made in the kitchen of Yikun Palace. It's very sweet."

As they were talking, the table was filled with pastries and tea.

The books were piled on the other side, and the two of them sat opposite each other, enjoying cakes and sipping tea.

"It's really good. You are the best. Yikun Palace prepares cakes for you every day. Empress Hua also allows you to play all day. A few days ago, you went out of the palace to ride horses in Yuanmingyuan. I wanted to go too, but the Empress Dowager didn't allow it. She called the teacher into the palace and asked me to study."

As the Third Prince spoke, his face became a little sad, his eyes were full of sorrow, and then he took another big bite of the pastry.

Almost biting his own fingers.

After chewing a few mouthfuls, he choked again and leaned over to cough.

"Third brother, slow down and have some tea." Fourth Prince hurried forward to pat him.

After drinking the tea, the Third Prince finally felt better, but he choked so hard that his face turned red.

They were both at an active age, and he felt very envious when he saw his fourth brother having fun like that.

Comparing himself to himself, the Empress Dowager was very strict and wished that he would study from dawn to dusk and go to bed at midnight.

"Thank you, fourth brother, for bringing so much food to share with third brother. Don't worry, if third brother wants to..." At this point, the third prince paused, realizing that something was difficult to say.

Just swallow it whole, "What's that? I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

However, the Fourth Prince knew very well what he did not say.

He simply wanted to say that after he had appointed the crown prince.

The Fourth Prince shrugged and spread his hands, "What are you talking about, Third Brother? Is Fourth Brother treating you well in order to seek something in return? Fourth Brother grew up in the Old Summer Palace and has never had such a friendly and respectful relationship with his brothers. Now that I have it, I cherish it very much. By the way, Third Brother, I heard from the maids that you will be the crown prince in the future. Is that true?"

The Fourth Prince lay on the table, supporting his head with his hands, looking at the Third Prince with his bright and innocent eyes.

That look is so pure that people are reluctant to defile it.

The Third Prince coughed and dodged a little, "Well... the Empress Dowager once told me that she hoped I would be the Crown Prince."
