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

"Your Highness is right. This matter is very serious. It is better for us to stay out of it."

Zhen Huan nodded, "You are right. I am tired. I don't know why I feel very tired recently."

"Then Madam, please rest early."

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Nian Shilan slept very well last night and woke up feeling particularly energetic this morning.

"Fudong is a very clever child. He added some lavender to the wind chimes he made. The queen's tent was filled with fragrance, and the queen slept better."

Songzhi helped her with her makeup and said with a smile.

Nian Shilan nodded. "Indeed, he is a good candidate. You have put a lot of thought into promoting him. Have you completed everything I ordered yesterday?"

Song Zhi bowed, "It's all ready. I asked Dr. Xie to identify the substance and found it was an accidental borneol. I also had it installed according to the Majesty's instructions."

"Well, bring it to me and put it on."

Song Zhi frowned, a little hesitant, "Your Highness, do you really want to wear it? Your Highness wants a child the most, right? That thing can make a woman infertile."

Nian Shilan thought to herself.

Her body had long been rendered infertile by the musk in the Huan Yi incense, so a mere borneol was no problem.

But she suddenly thought of something, "Okay, take it first, it will come in handy when you go to see the Queen today."

After saying that, she stood up gracefully, and with the help of Songzhi, she sat on the sedan chair.

……

In Jingren Palace.

After paying their respects, the concubines took their seats.

Nian Shilan looked at the person sitting opposite her, who had changed from Concubine Qi to Concubine Jing, and lowered her eyes as thoughts flashed through her eyes.

"Hua Fei."

Suddenly the queen called out.

Nian Shilan smiled calmly, "What's the matter, Queen?"

"Yesterday, the Emperor came to me and specifically mentioned to me that I should give you a reward for discovering that Qi agreed to poison me, which saved me from trouble. But I thought that you have been frugal and don't like extravagance recently, so I don't know what to reward you for. Is there anything you are short of? Please tell me."

The queen said this with a dignified smile.

Nian Shilan raised her eyebrows, "Queen, don't worry. I have everything I need. It is my duty to help the Queen and I shouldn't ask for a reward."

"That being said, I should still reward you something." The queen insisted.

Nian Shilan pursed her lips and pretended to remember something, saying, "I remember that when Qin Nuo was still a concubine, the Queen gave him a red gold coiled dragon necklace. I thought it was pretty good at the time."

As she mentioned this, some inexplicable emotion seemed to flash across the queen's eyes.

Then he added, "If you like it, I will ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make another one for you."

Nian Shilan smiled and shook her head, "It would be too much trouble to make another one. Qin Nuo did give this to me as a gift before he left, but he died unclearly, so I dare not use this thing."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Songzhi, and Songzhi immediately took out the red gold disc dragon necklace from the box.

The Queen nodded. "In fact, this thing is in very good condition. If Concubine Hua likes it, why not give it to me? I will send it to Baohua Palace to pray for blessings and chant sutras to drive away evil spirits, and then send it to you."

"That's great." Nian Shilan smiled and asked Songzhi to present the things to the queen.

After the two of them finished talking, Concubine Jing spoke.

"Empress, the Fourth Prince is seriously ill and we don't know how he is doing. The concubines dare not visit him without permission, for fear of disturbing him."

When something like this happens to a young child, even if he tried to avoid suspicion in the past.

Now I feel sorry for him, so I can't help but ask a few more questions.

The Queen said calmly, "Fortunately, the Fourth Prince is in good health, and he is still in good health despite his young age. The imperial physician said that most of the toxins in his body have been eliminated, and the remaining toxins need to be recuperated and rested."

Zhen Huan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to go back to the Yuanmingyuan Palace to recuperate? Or should you recuperate in the palace?"

"The Emperor means that he should recuperate in the palace for the time being. It is not convenient to move back to the temporary palace at this time. The Fourth Prince's nanny and belongings have already been brought into the palace." said the Queen.

Zhen Huan said, "Yes, with the careful care of the Queen and the care of Concubine Hua, the Fourth Prince will be fine."

The Queen looked at her deeply and said, "Well, because the Emperor is also in a very bad mood at this moment, you should comfort him more."

Hearing this, Zhen Huan stood up, bowed and replied, "Yes, I will serve you wholeheartedly."

Nian Shilan smiled and said, "The Queen values ​​Wanpin so much, Wanpin must be devoted to the Emperor and will never dare to disappoint him."

Although she was smiling, in Zhen Huan's eyes, it somehow turned into a hint of sarcasm.

Especially those words.

Others might not notice anything, but in his eyes, it seemed to be a kind of sarcasm.

"Of course, I believe that Concubine Hua is just like a concubine." Zhen Huan said lightly.

The queen smiled and said, "I am very happy to see you two getting along so harmoniously. However, there have been incidents one after another in the palace, and the concubines in the palace are dying. It is time to add some new people to the palace."

Xin Changzai smiled and said, "From what the Queen said, is there going to be a beauty pageant?"

"The emperor and I both think that the election every three years is too extravagant. Last night, the emperor and I agreed to select a few women from the ministers' homes to enter the palace."

The Queen said solemnly.

Xin Changzai joked, "Your Majesty, the Emperor and the Empress, when you say that, you must have already had someone in mind, and you just found a legitimate reason to bring that person into the palace."

After saying that, he started to chuckle.

With her joke, the tense atmosphere eased a lot.

Many people present were still immersed in what happened to Concubine Qi yesterday.

At this moment, everyone has turned their attention to this election.

"It's hard to say whether the emperor has a good candidate in mind, but I wonder if the queen has a candidate in mind?" Nian Shilan suddenly spoke, and the question was directed to the queen.

The Queen nodded and said, "I have also paid attention to the women of several ministers' families before. There are indeed some good ones. I heard that Wen Yuan, the daughter of the Guarjia family, is very beautiful."

Xin Changzai added, "All the girls in the boudoir are beautiful and bright. At that time, people like me who are old and ugly can only feel sad in secret."

Seeing her self-deprecating, Shen Meizhuang smiled and said, "Xin Chang has a princess by her side, I am envious, not to mention that you have a beautiful body, so I can't tell anything."

"Lady Hui is teasing me." Concubine Xin giggled again.

What is out of tune with this peaceful scene is An Lingrong standing beside him.

She clutched the handkerchief tightly in her hand.

I heard that a new batch of people will enter the palace.

She felt melancholy because even the unfavored Concubine Xin had a daughter by her side, but she was neither favored nor had a family.

She has nothing, and I'm afraid the emperor won't even remember her by then.

I'm afraid in this palace you can only hear the laughter of new people, but not the crying of old people.
