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

However, Zhen Huan also felt strange. After all this, it seemed as if everything was under Nian Shilan's control.

She seemed to know how all events were going to develop. She understood too much and understood it too thoroughly.

This is not like her before, and it's not normal.

After all, it is so difficult to know so many details, calculate everyone's thoughts, and grasp every inch.

Thinking of this, what made Zhen Huan feel cold in her heart was not that Nian Shilan could think of such a deep thought, but...

Nian Shilan must have some unknown means and methods to know the unknown secrets.

Mystery is the most dangerous. Zhen Huan could only pray that if Nian Shilan came after her again, she would be able to protect herself.

Zhen Huan stopped thinking about it. "Now that there is no way to retreat, we can only go all out. Go and inform Liu Zhu, and ask her to ask Xiao Yunzi to go to the Imperial Hospital in this heavy snow and tell Doctor Wen to win over his colleagues in the hospital, and also the doctor named Wei Lin."

"Yes."

"Don't be too conspicuous or showy. Be careful."

"The servant understands."

Not long after, Jinxi came in after settling down and gave her a new hot water bottle.

Huanbi came to offer new tea again, "It's getting colder day by day, your majesty, please try it. This is the first batch of snow tea that Liuzhu and I picked in the morning. Look, it still has a scent of the morning."

Zhen Huan lowered her head and smiled bitterly, "It's hard for you, but I'm trying to have fun with you in this difficult situation."

Huanbi and Jinxi looked at each other, and Huanbi continued to force a smile, "It's just a little cold, I'm not afraid, Madam, try it quickly. Drink a pot to warm your body."

Zhen Huan nodded and picked up the teacup. She immediately smelled a fragrance and her originally cold nose became a little warmer.

She curled her lips and said, "It is indeed quite good." After saying that, she saw the red and swollen chilblains on Huanbi's hands.

"I have made a few pairs of gloves these past two days. You can each take one and wear it when you work. Although they are not very useful, they are at least enough to keep you warm."

Jinxi took it and said, "This fine fabric was originally from the Emperor's previous batch of rewards. I was thinking that I would ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a set of clothes for the Empress in the spring, but I didn't expect that the Empress would use it to make covers for us. We, the servants, are so ungrateful and unworthy."

"No matter how valuable something is, if it can't be used, it is useless. The emperor's love is long gone, and the only thing left is the reward that can be put to good use. Anyway, I don't want to look at this thing, so it's good to give it to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zhu came in to report.

"My queen, the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has arrived to deliver the coal."

Zhen Huan frowned.

Jinxi was also puzzled. "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has always been the one that never sends us anything unless we ask for it. How come the sun is rising from the west today?"

"That eunuch is very strange. I saw him standing outside our palace for a long time. He waited for Xiao Yunzi to go out before he came in." Liu Zhu puffed her lips and said angrily.

I guess he thinks this father-in-law has some bad intentions.

"Let him in."

Liu Zhu waved her hand and asked the eunuch to come in. As soon as the eunuch came in, he bowed respectfully to Zhen Huan and showed her the good charcoal he had brought.

Zhen Huan took a look and found that they were all good charcoal. Then, she gave Liu Zhu a color.

Liu Zhu then spoke out the question he had just raised.

"The eunuch's job is so strange. He was just delivering coal, but he insisted on standing at the door of our Suiyuxuan for a long time and refused to come in. If others didn't know, they would think that we had just hired the eunuch to be a guard at Suiyuxuan."

The father-in-law cried out, "Miss, please blame me. I am also following orders from my superiors. My supervisor has ordered that I can only come in to deliver the charcoal after seeing that Xiao Yunzi has gone to the Imperial Hospital. If Xiao Yunzi has not gone to the Imperial Hospital today, I cannot bring the charcoal in."

Zhen Huan frowned at such a strange instruction.

Liu Zhu obviously didn't believe it. "Eunuch is a good talker. He could just say that he didn't want to give the charcoal to our Suiyuxuan. Why did he have to find such a ridiculous excuse to evade our queen?"

In Liu Zhu's eyes, he had to act according to Xiao Yunzi's whereabouts. Isn't this nonsense?

The eunuch was speechless, "Oh, I...everything your majesty said is true."

Zhen Huan raised her hand, "Forget it, you can go down. It's freezing cold, thank you for taking him there. Huanbi, give him some hot tea and let him rest for a while before leaving."

"Thank you, ma'am."

Zhen Huan understood that this must have been Nian Shilan's instruction.

It was such a cold day, and no one cared about her, Shuiyuxuan. It was impossible for Nian Shilan not to know this.

She knew, but didn't ask.

Because she wanted to let herself experience the torture, and then appear like a savior, giving her two choices -

Those who follow her will prosper, and those who go against her will perish.

Yikun Palace.

"Has everything been arranged?"

Nian Shilan curled up on the couch, hugging the heater. Songzhi tucked the blanket in and nodded.

"Don't worry, Madam. I have made all the arrangements. By the way, Fudong just said that Aunt Jianqiu from the Queen's Palace sent someone to tell her that the Queen has set a date and will send the selected young ladies to the palace in spring. Right now, I guess the selected young ladies are learning the rules in the palace."

Nian Shilan raised her eyes, "Spring? That's good, it's so cold that those delicate girls won't get frostbitten. Do you have a list?"

"Yes." Songzhi took out the list from her sleeve and handed it to Nian Shilan.

Nian Shilan took a few glances and found that among the four people selected this time, the three she liked were among them, and the rest were Manchus.

Speaking of the name, Nian Shilan was not very familiar with it.

Nian Shilan frowned and read out the name, "Tong Jiarubi?"

She put down the list and said, "Tong Jia? Ha, even under my handwriting, the Queen still tried her best to squeeze someone in. One Guaerjia is not enough, and she needs another Tong Jia."

"No matter what the Queen does, she is always overshadowed by our Madam," Songzhi said.

"Empress, oh, the Tonggiya family is powerful and it is not easy to offend. In the past, even when my brother was a general, he had to give the Tonggiya family some face. Now if I want to touch her, it is really difficult to do so."

Song Zhi shook her head, puzzled: "She is just a new lady in the palace. At best, she is a concubine or a noble lady. Why should Your Majesty take it to heart?"

Nian Shilan stared at the name on the book with a firm look in her eyes.

"Because the path I'm on can't stand any disturbance."

The women she chose did not come from prominent families and were all Han Chinese.

She thought for a moment, "Has the Queen already decided on where the new young lady will live in the palace?"

"Not yet. Although the Queen has no say, the servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are very smart and know when to ask us. We are waiting for the Queen's arrangement."

"good."

This is not an easy matter to arrange.

When people live together, frictions and conflicts are inevitable, which may even affect many things. She has to think carefully about how to arrange it.
