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

Hongli was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly responded, "Thank you, Concubine Hua. I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."

Nian Shilan pursed her lips and smiled.

Her smile was so sweet and charming, and her elegance was so unparalleled that Hongli was stunned.

"I didn't dare to look closely at Empress Hua before, but today I feel that Empress Hua is truly unparalleled." He praised sincerely.

He was stunned, tilting his neck and staring straight at it.

This cute look really amused Nian Shilan and Songzhi.

Songzhi covered her mouth and laughed.

"You are so sweet-talker and really know how to make me happy." Nian Shilan touched Hongli's smooth and white forehead with her fingertips.

After sending the nanny away, she took Hongli for a walk around the area.

"Just now I heard you say that you rarely see your father-in-law, so you want to see him while playing here. Do you really want to see your father-in-law?"

Nian Shilan spoke.

Hongli nodded seriously, "Of course, Hongli has seen the Emperor's father only a few times since he was a child. Hongli is not like his third brother in the palace. He has been loved by his own mother and the Emperor's father since he was a child, and he has also been cared for by the ladies in the palace."

As he spoke, his head lowered even lower.

"Hongli was raised in the Yuanmingyuan Palace since he was young. He had nothing. Only when the emperor came to the palace to escape the summer heat could he see him from afar."

After he said that, he seemed to have thought of something and held Nian Shilan's hand tightly.

"Empress Hua, good Empress, could you please take me to see the Emperor? Just one glance, just one glance will do." He held Nian Shilan's hand and said almost pleadingly.

Nian Shilan could not deny that she was moved by the child.

It wasn't the kind of thing where she wanted to use him so that she could use him in the future, but she really loved the child.

When she looked at the Fourth Prince, she always wondered if her own child would look somewhat like him.

Maybe the eyes, maybe the chin.

"Okay, I'm willing to help you."

Hongli was extremely surprised and smiled with joy. He then immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her, "Thank you, Empress Hua!"

Nian Shilan quickly pulled him up.

"I can let you meet the Emperor, but you have to do it secretly and not be discovered by your Emperor." Nian Shilan said in a low voice.

She knew that the emperor didn't like this child.

Taking the risk of letting him meet her was the best she could do.

If she offended the emperor, she would be implicated.

Hongli did not ask for more, but was content, "Thank you, Your Majesty. As long as I can see the Emperor from a distance, Hongli will even be careful with his breathing."

This made Nian Shilan laugh. "Okay, I'll have someone bring some ginseng soup over. I'll tell the people in front of the emperor later to let you sneak behind the screen in the study so you can see him."

"it is good."

Nian Shilan's subordinates were very efficient, and this was not a big deal.

Hongli was brought into the study very smoothly.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua is here to bring you ginseng soup." Su Peisheng told Yinzhen in a pinched voice.

Only then did Yinzhen raise his head from the piles of memorials, stretch his body and relax his shoulders.

"Let her in."

Nian Shilan walked slowly over with Songzhi, and subconsciously glanced at the small green figure behind the screen.

Children are children after all, and they are very childish.

When Nian Shilan looked at him, he playfully made a cute and ugly face towards her.

Nian Shilan took it into account and suppressed the corners of her mouth, but still couldn't hide her joy.

"What makes you so happy?" Yinzhen looked at her face, and when he saw her smile, the corners of his mouth also curled up slightly.

Suddenly remembering something, he added, "It's been a long time since I've seen you smile so brightly."

Nian Shilan was stunned for a moment, but did not stop serving ginseng soup to Yinzhen.

Yes, in all these years, I have rarely laughed so happily.

I used to be unhappy about many things, which made me feel uncomfortable.

"I noticed the sunshine in the Old Summer Palace is very bright today, and I am happy to see that Your Majesty is happy, so I smiled. Your Majesty, please try this ginseng soup. I specially asked the kitchen to prepare it." Nian Shilan said.

"Thank you for your trouble. Your cooking skills in the small kitchen must be good."

Accompanying the emperor to drink ginseng soup, Nian Shilan thought that it was about time.

He signaled Songzhi with his eyes and took Hongli away.

Otherwise, the emperor would find out if I stayed there for too long.

Songzhi lowered her head, took the ginseng soup and went to do it.

In the hall, only she and Yinzhen were left.

Nian Shilan stood up and gently massaged Yinzhen's shoulders.

As she spoke, "Your Majesty, today I have seen that the servants of the Old Summer Palace are too unruly. Not only do they not do their job with all their heart, but they are also full of treacherous words."

Yinzhen closed his eyes and enjoyed himself comfortably, "Who has made you unhappy again? Just ask someone to punish them."

Nian Shilan recounted what had just happened, adding some exaggeration to the story.

"Not only did this nanny not take good care of the Fourth Prince, she was even disrespectful to him. After all, Hongli is also the Emperor's Tianlong bloodline. Isn't it disrespectful to the Emperor if she is so disrespectful?"

Sure enough, when Hongli was mentioned, Yinzhen's face instantly turned cold.

Even the aura around him had dropped a lot, which was frightening.

But Nian Shilan was not afraid. She came here today prepared to face all of this.

"You never cared about the Fourth Prince before, why do you care about him so much today?" Yinzhen raised his hand and held her hand on his shoulder.

Nian Shilan stopped and walked to the desk. "Since the last incident, I have felt particularly distressed for the child. Seeing the Fourth Prince suffering at such a young age, I think of my child."

When that incident was mentioned, Yinzhen's expression softened a little, and he did not suspect her for any other reason.

"Forget it. These nuns in the Old Summer Palace are old. It's time to replace them. Just give them some silver and send them away." Yinzhen sighed.

Nian Shilan smiled and said, "I am not as thoughtful as the emperor. I am only concerned with my daughter's complaints."

Yinzhen smiled and said nothing. Although he knew she was flattering him, he felt quite pleased.

……

Taohuawu.

"Your Majesty, someone saw Concubine Hua and the Fourth Prince communicating closely today. Do you need to send someone to investigate?"

Jianqiu stood beside the queen and reported.

The Queen frowned and murmured, "Fourth Prince?"

"What is Hua Fei doing with him?"

"It is said that the maidservant beside the Fourth Prince offended Concubine Hua, and Concubine Hua was very angry about this. She directly replaced all the maidservants, and it seems that they were also taken to the Qinzheng Palace together. However, the Emperor probably did not see the Fourth Prince."

Jianqiu continued.

The Queen raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Why?"

"Xiao Xiazi said that the emperor did not see anyone except Concubine Hua in the Qinzheng Palace today. I need to ask around for the rest."

The Queen waved her hands. "That's all. They are just some maids. Go and call An Ying. I have something to say to her."

He is just the son of a palace maid and can never achieve anything great.

Besides, Concubine Hua has never liked children. She even dislikes Concubine Cao's Wen Yi. How could she have anything with the Fourth Prince?

I guess it was really that nanny who made Concubine Hua unhappy.

She didn't think much about it.
