"Okay, I understand you."

Yinzhen took her hand and patted it with satisfaction, "You have become more sensible these days. I will go to see the queen later and come to see you again tomorrow on the night of the moon."

Nian Shilan smiled coquettishly, with tears on her face, and her smile was quite charming.

Feng Yi's beauty is so stunning that it can make one lose one's mind in an instant.

"Your Majesty, what you said is true. I will take note of it."

Yinzhen stretched out his hand and couldn't help pinching her fair face. "I am the emperor, my words are binding, so they are naturally true."

After saying this, Nian Shilan escorted Yinzhen out of Yikun Palace.

When Yinzhen was about to get on the sedan chair, Nian Shilan suddenly said.

"I also ask Your Majesty not to punish Concubine Qi too much. She loves her son endlessly and is so happy to have him back home. Originally, today was the day for Concubine Qi and the Third Prince to reunite, but Concubine Qi ended up like this. I am afraid that the Third Prince will feel sad. I hope Concubine Qi can get the punishment she deserves."

Yinzhen patted her hands and said, "You are kind-hearted. It's just that the Third Prince is sad, but the Fourth Prince is innocent. I will make the final decision on this matter. You don't have to worry about it anymore."

Nian Shilan bowed and said, "Yes, I am sorry for saying too much."

Afterwards, Yinzhen got on the sedan chair. Nian Shilan was still quite worried and gave more instructions to the servants.

"The ground is slippery and dark at night, so you must open your eyes carefully when serving. If you bump into anything, I will not forgive you."

"Yes, the servants will serve you carefully!"

Yinzhen waved his hand, "Okay, let's go back."

Nian Shilan stood at the gate of Yikun Palace and watched Yinzhen's sedan chair leave before turning around and going in.

Yinzhen's arrival tonight obviously led to new speculations about the matter of Concubine Qi.

That's why I came to test her thoughts.

The only way she could alleviate her suspicion was to plead for Concubine Qi.

After all, at this moment, the more people plead for Concubine Qi, the more it shows that she is not afraid of further investigation into the matter.

And what she just said was exactly what Yinzhen was thinking.

No matter what, the Third Prince is the Emperor's eldest son, and the Emperor has high hopes for him.

Regardless of the fact that this matter is full of doubts, even if it was really done by Concubine Qi, the Emperor would never kill Concubine Qi.

As for saying that the Fourth Prince is innocent, it is just an excuse to make himself appear less cold-hearted.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. You should rest." Fu Dong walked forward and reminded her carefully.

Nian Shilan rubbed his head, there were too many things to do today.

She really had a headache.

Fu Dong noticed it quickly and asked, "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to bring you a bowl of soothing soup?"

She used to drink the tranquilizing soup often.

It's just that this soup is useful when you drink it at the moment, but later on you will become addicted to it, to the point where you will have trouble falling asleep without drinking the calming soup.

She waved her hand, "No need, there are too many things to do today, it's just a headache."

"I heard that Your Majesty used to use Huanyi incense, but now that Your Majesty feels that Huanyi incense is too luxurious, you can light some other incense to help you sleep."

Fu Dong said.

Nian Shilan lowered her eyes. "Incense does help you sleep, but once the curtains are closed, you can't smell anything. If you get close, it will be choking."

Fu Dong thought for a moment, "The bell I made for you is already finished. It's very large, with some delicate hollows in the middle. I think I can put some lavender in it to help you sleep. When I shake it, it will not only make a pleasant sound, but also give off a lavender scent that can help you sleep."

Hearing this, Nian Shilan raised her eyebrows and looked at her in surprise.

"You do have many interesting ideas. Well, go ahead and do it yourself. Let others help me bathe and change clothes first."

"Yes."

At Nian Shilan's instruction, Songzhi asked imperial physician Xie Yun to take care of the Fourth Prince personally.

He went to visit the Fourth Prince in person at his bedside, and when he left, the Fourth Prince happened to wake up.

Then he said a few words.

"Aunt? But Empress Hua asked you to come see me?" The Fourth Prince propped himself up and sat up, stretching his neck to look at Songzhi who was about to open the door and leave.

Songzhi closed the door gently and turned back, "My Lord, please be careful when you lie down. It will be bad if you get hurt."

"Aunt, I'm fine. How's Madam Hua?"

The Fourth Prince frowned and asked.

Songzhi smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Fourth Prince. The Queen is fine. She has asked me to bring a capable imperial physician to take care of you. Maybe the Queen will come to visit you tomorrow."

The Fourth Prince blinked his sparkling eyes, "Really? Empress Hua will come to visit me?"

"Maybe. Your Majesty is very busy and needs to assist with a lot of things in the harem. If Your Majesty is free, she will definitely come."

After hearing this, the bright look in the Fourth Prince's eyes dimmed again.

He lowered his head and looked at his weak hands on the quilt.

"It's all my fault. I was poisoned because I was useless. Empress Hua spent so much time preparing for the banquet, but I was useless."

Songzhi listened and felt very distressed, "No, Fourth Prince, this is not your fault. The Emperor and the Queen Mother came to see you just now. Are you happy?"

She didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only change the subject.

"I'm happy, I'm happy. This is the first time I see the emperor caring about me so much!"

"So this is a good start. With the emperor's concern, maybe the prince won't have to go back to the palace and can be kept in the palace." Songzhi smiled.

"Really? That's great."

Perhaps he was too excited, for after he finished speaking, he started coughing violently again.

"It's my fault for making Fourth Prince cough." Songzhi quickly helped him lie down.

Then she tucked in the quilt and said, "I really can't stay here any longer. I have to go back to serve the Majesty. Brother, please take care of yourself."

"Well, my aunt and Empress Hua said that I will study hard and make my father happy."

Songzhi covered her mouth and smiled, then hurriedly opened the door and went out.

When I returned to Yikun Palace, Nian Shilan had already taken a shower, changed her clothes and was preparing to go to bed.

Seeing Fu Dong hanging something up, she asked curiously, "What is this? Have you checked it? Is there anything mixed in it?"

Fu Dong saw her coming and bowed, "Aunt, you are here. Good, please check it first. This is the bell I made for you to calm your mind."

Songzhi took it, put it to her nose and smelled it, "What a nice fragrance, what's this fragrance?"

“It’s lavender.”

Fu Dong answered obediently.

Nian Shilan stood not far away, looking at Songzhi's vigilant appearance and the conversation just now.

Bells...

Hanging on the bedside...

fragrant……

Something suddenly occurred to her mind.

If aphrodisiac incense is added to it and placed on the bedside, wouldn't it make people aroused? Besides, the bell is so small that it is not easy to detect...

……

Yixiu didn't expect Yinzhen to come back.

After waiting for Yinzhen to wash up, she stood in front of Yinzhen and smiled shyly, "I thought the emperor would stay in Yikun Palace today."

"Today is the fifteenth day, I will naturally come back to accompany you."

"It is because I am useless today that so many things went wrong. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
