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

Nian Shilan felt a little warm in her heart as she watched this scene. It was a rare moment of warmth and hope within the palace walls.

"Okay, everyone, please leave. I'm afraid you still have a lot to say tonight."

The two of them retreated with red faces. Songzhi smiled sweetly and gave Nian Shilan a massage.

Nian Shilan looked at Songzhi, tilted her head, and whispered, "This Fudong is a few years younger than you. Fudong is already married, what about you? Do you want me to find a good family for you?"

She asked in a questioning tone, but that didn't mean she had never thought about it.

After a while, Songzhi nodded.

She immediately began to arrange this matter, and Songzhi would definitely marry the best.

In fact, she had this idea a long time ago, but she never dared to say it out loud until today when she saw Fudong happy and Songzhi was happy too, so she asked.

Although she looked ruthless and powerful, in fact, deep down in her heart, she was deeply afraid that Songzhi would leave her one day.

So I never asked it, but when I asked this question at this moment, I was still a little worried in my heart.

Songzhi, who was smiling just now, suddenly became serious.

"Please don't chase me away, Madam."

Songzhi knelt down, her smile disappeared almost instantly, and her voice became tearful.

Nian Shilan was startled for a moment, and then immediately supported her.

Songzhi's eyes were slightly red, and she held Nian Shilan's hand tightly. Her voice was trembling but firm: "I have grown up with the queen since I was a child. The queen's kindness to me is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea. In my heart, the queen is not only my master, but also the only relative in my life. I don't want to marry into a wealthy family, I just want to stay with the queen and serve her until the end of my life."

She raised her head, her eyes full of reluctance and determination, "Your Majesty may feel that I am getting older and should have a home, but I know in my heart that nothing can make me feel more at ease and happy than staying with you. Please fulfill my wish and let me continue to stay under your protection, to protect you and accompany you."

When Nian Shilan heard this, a warm feeling surged in her heart and her eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.

She gently helped Songzhi up and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Silly girl, how could I chase you away? I just saw that you are the same age as Fu Dong, so I thought if you also have this intention, I would make arrangements for you. But since you care about me, then I will do as you wish. As long as I am in the palace, you will have a place to stay."

Upon hearing this, Songzhi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes again, but she forced herself not to let the tears fall and nodded heavily.

"Thank you for your grace, Madam. I will live up to your expectations in this life and swear to be loyal to you until death. I will never leave you."

As the night deepened, the flickering candlelight in the palace illuminated the figures of the two people leaning on each other.

This friendship, which goes beyond the relationship between master and servant and is close to family affection, seems particularly precious and warm within the palace walls.

However, Nian Shilan did not know at this time that a storm against her had been quietly brewing and was about to sweep over her.

There are always ups and downs in the harem. There are no permanent winners or losers.

In this game of power, everyone is a gambler of his own destiny, and the final victory or defeat depends only on the decision and choice made at that moment.

The Nan Xu incident implicated the Queen in scandal and she was placed under house arrest. Immediately many old ministers from the previous dynasty came out to speak for her.

Nan Xu was just a maid after all, so her funeral was not a big deal.

Yinzhen was not willing to talk about this matter. After all, he was resentful because he was plotted against again and again by the person next to him.

She didn't get angry in the past simply because she was thinking of the Empress Dowager's face. Now that the Empress Dowager has passed away and Yixiu has lost her protection, she still dares to be so arrogant. She is really courting death.

Su Peisheng has persuaded several groups of old ministers who came to speak for the queen to leave.

During this period, he did not dare to be too ostentatious, for fear that the old minister would be stubborn and anger the emperor, which would implicate him and make him exhausted from trying to persuade him.

After much persuasion, I finally persuaded him to leave.

Just when I thought I could sit down, relax and have a cup of tea, the sun was setting and the people inside spoke.

"Su Peisheng, have someone prepare to go to Suiyuxuan."

Su Peisheng was stunned for a moment. In the past, at this time of day, the emperor would read memorials in the Yangxin Palace. Besides, Concubine Wan was the only one living in Suiyuxuan now. Could it be that the emperor was planning to visit Concubine Wan?

Without giving it any thought, he immediately agreed, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The lights in Suiyuxuan were bright, and the air was filled with a faint scent of incense, trying to dispel the imminent heavy atmosphere.

Zhen Huan was sitting in front of a bronze mirror, while Huanbi was carefully combing her long hair. Although the woman in the mirror had a beautiful face, she could not hide the worry and struggle between her brows.

Zhen Huan had already made preparations, she knew that the emperor would come today.

But today was different from the past, she felt a little more uneasy.

It feels like you know the box in front of you contains something disgusting and nauseating, but you still have to put your hand in.

She bit her lip and trembled a little.

"My lady, are you really ready?" Huanbi asked softly, with both worry and encouragement in her eyes.

Zhen Huan took a deep breath and forced a smile: "This is a step I must take. I must win the emperor's heart again."

Before he finished speaking, the eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the door: "The Emperor has arrived——"

Zhen Huan quickly adjusted her mood, stood up, and went out with Huanbi.

Yinzhen walked quickly into the Suiyuxuan, his eyes swept over everything in the room, and finally fell on Zhen Huan, his eyes were complicated and difficult to read.

"Hanhuan, I'm here." Yinzhen's voice was calm and deep, but it seemed to hide subtle emotional fluctuations.

Zhen Huan knelt down and saluted, her voice gentle and slightly choked: "Your Majesty, I respectfully welcome you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."

Yinzhen took a step forward and gently helped Zhen Huan up. The two looked at each other, as if they had a thousand words to say.

Zhen Huan suppressed her nausea and discomfort and tried to make her smile look more sincere: "Your Majesty, I know that I was willful in the past and missed the opportunity to spend time with Your Majesty. Now I have deeply reflected on it and only hope to return to Your Majesty and make up for the regrets of the past."

Her words were sincere, and her eyes were flashing with expectation and regret, and Yinzhen's heart couldn't help but move slightly.

He reached out and gently stroked Zhen Huan's cheek, feeling the tension and trembling beneath her skin, but also sensing her unknown tenacity and determination.

"Hanhuan, I'm glad you think this way. Let the past be the past. What's important is the future. Since you are willing to repent, I am naturally willing to give you this opportunity."

Yinzhen's words were full of kindness and tenderness.

Zhen Huan's eyes turned slightly red and she nodded vigorously.

From now on, she must work hard to play the gentle, virtuous and considerate Concubine Wan, and use her intelligence and beauty to gradually win back Yinzhen's favor and trust.

This is her mission, the next mission given to her by Nian Shilan.
