Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 550: Changes in the Qing Dynasty

"Queen! I say!"

Seeing his daughter looking so pitiful, E Min finally let out a sigh of relief.

He paused and said, "This is a long story. In fact, the biggest culprit in this matter is the emperor! I am just helping the emperor achieve his goal."

Nian Shilan felt disdainful in her heart. She knew best what kind of person the emperor was, so she knew it in her heart without E Min saying anything.

"On that day, the emperor was naturally happy when he heard about the great victory in the northwest. But later, he heard that General Nian was loved by the people, and gradually, the emperor was not so happy. Although the emperor had ascended the throne at that time, he had just ascended the throne not long ago, and his position was unstable. So the emperor was also afraid that if the emperor lost the support of the people, his position would naturally be unstable. That's why he found me and Zhen Yuandao. Coincidentally, at that time, my daughter just missed the draft, but I also know that this is my daughter's only wish."

After hearing this, Nian Shilan understood. It seemed that the emperor had promised to let Qi agree to enter the palace.

In this way, E Min also did it for his daughter.

"In fact, I know that General Nian has not colluded with any cliques. These are all fabricated stories. They are just excuses made by the emperor to get rid of General Nian. However, if the emperor wants me to die, I have to die. I can only do what he says. After General Nian's affairs were dealt with, my daughter naturally entered the palace as she wished, but she is still not favored. That's because of you, Your Majesty. I think the emperor will exterminate General Nian's entire family, including Your Majesty."

"I underestimated the emperor's feelings for the queen."

At this point, Emin lowered his head, and Qi Da Ying also thoroughly understood what happened back then and how the feud between the Guwalgiya clan and the Nian family came about.

"Father, father, why are you so confused? If I had known this would happen, I would not have entered the palace." Qi Da Ying cried loudly and hugged E Min tightly.

"What a deep love between father and daughter. But Lord Emin is wrong. If the emperor really has deep feelings for me, how could he bear to leave me alone in the Nian family! He just likes my appearance."

Nian Shilan became more and more sad as she spoke, but her beauty was obvious to all, and it really proved Fang Ruo's words that even if all the eight banners of Manchuria and Mongolia were put together, they could not compare to her beauty!

No matter how cruel the emperor is, every time he sees this face, he can't bear to hurt it in the slightest.

"Is he worthy of being the emperor?!"

When Nian Shilan was feeling sad, Khan's voice came from outside!

The burly man strode over, apparently having been listening outside for a while, his face full of anger.

"In my opinion, Your Majesty would be better off becoming the emperor yourself! Tubo is willing to support you with all the strength of the country!"

He stretched out his hand and bowed, which was actually the etiquette of the Qing Dynasty!

"Khan..." Nian Shilan did not expect Khan to say such words. Although he was already extremely powerful, he had never thought about becoming emperor.

It’s difficult to be a woman in the Qing Dynasty.

But unlike what Nian Shilan thought, the ministers did not say anything. But if it had happened before, they would have reported it one by one.

"The emperor of the Qing Dynasty does not have to be a man." Zhang Tingyu stood up and spoke slowly.

He is usually the most rule-abiding person, but I didn't expect that he has no objection now.

He is a man of high moral character, and since he said so, it would be easier for others to talk to him.

"That's right. Didn't the Tang Dynasty have an Emperor Wu? Since our emperor is already like this, and Your Majesty has been acting as the government official for so long, I think Your Majesty is the most suitable candidate."

Prince Dun also echoed.

All the generals also agreed.

It must be because he just heard what E Min said about the emperor's behavior. He is probably afraid that he will become the second Nian Gengyao.

"My dear ministers... I just don't know how to explain it. Besides, the emperor does have a son."

Nian Shilan hesitated. Before, she had kept Hongli by her side and made him a puppet emperor. She had never thought about this aspect. She was also afraid that the child would grow up and be out of control.

"If I remember correctly, the Emperor has already issued an edict that the Third Prince will never be able to succeed to the throne. The Fourth Prince, Hongli, is also still young and has not experienced political affairs. So after thinking it over, I still think that Your Majesty is the most suitable."

After Zhang Tingyu finished speaking, someone else echoed him: "Yes, I think that as long as it is beneficial to the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, the late emperor will not blame it. Besides, the queen is the queen, the queen of the emperor, how can she not be a family member?"

"Yeah yeah."

"Okay, I'm willing to give it a try." The corners of Nian Shilan's mouth gradually rose. She didn't expect that things would have such unexpected surprises.

"Your Majesty, long live the emperor!"

Under these calls for worship, the Qing Dynasty finally changed.

As for E Min, he was given leniency because he confessed, and Nian Shilan also left his body intact.

It’s just a pity for Qi Da Ying. Since her father’s death, she has not left the palace and died of depression within a few days.

Nian Shilan has become the emperor, so Yongzheng naturally becomes the previous emperor. Nian Shilan will not erase his deeds in history, whether good or bad, and leave it to future generations to judge.

But I still have to settle this account with him.

"Songzhi, go get my Huanyi incense. It's time for us to go visit our old friends."

"Yes."

After enduring for so many years, it's time to settle the account with Huan Yixiang.

The current Yinzhen is barely fifty years old, but looking at him lying in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he looks like he is over sixty.

"Your Majesty, it's time to wake up." Concubine Duan patted her face gently.

Yinzhen also opened his eyes in a daze, but the person in front of him was Nian Shilan. She was still as young and beautiful as before, and her charm was as strong as ever.

"Queen..." Yinzhen exhaled slowly from his mouth.

"No, you should call me Your Majesty now!"

Nian Shilan looked very proud, but Yinzhen was extremely angry when he heard this.

But now he is terminally ill, what can we do?

"Did the late emperor not hear the bell that sounded for the new emperor to ascend the throne? I owe everything I have to the late emperor."

Nian Shilan stroked Yinzhen's face and said, "Go, let the emperor taste this top-grade fragrance, Huanyixiang."

"You..." Yinzhen knew that she must know about Huanyixiang now, otherwise she wouldn't bring it up now.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your painstaking efforts and your clever method, which has kept me in the dark until my death."

"I have no other choice." The emperor panted heavily, his face flushed red: "You vicious woman, you are just a woman, how can you be an emperor?"

"You're trying to seize my kingdom!!"

"Cough cough."

"Compared to your cruelty, Shilan still admits that you killed my brother, and everyone knows it. Your crime will be left to future generations to judge. People know right and wrong. It's just a pity that my child back then, Concubine Lian Duan, took the blame for you and your mother. Don't you feel guilty at all for all these years?"

"I am also doing this for the royal family. As an emperor, I have to walk on thin ice throughout my life and I cannot be careless."

"Forget it, forget it, it doesn't matter anymore. This is the last time, Your Majesty, come, I will help you drink the medicine."

Nian Shilan took the medicine from Concubine Duan with a smile. It tasted extremely bitter.

I kept feeding Yinzhen mouthful after mouthful: "Don't worry, even if you leave, I won't let you be alone. Your Yixiu, Jingbai... they all like you very much..."

Yinzhen was so angry that he couldn't speak and kept rolling his eyes. These two were the people he hated the most.

"Drink, drink, it's time to sleep after drinking..."

Yinzhen's breath gradually faded away, and he slowly closed his eyes.

It was Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing who went to check: "The late emperor has passed away!"

As soon as the news spread, the national mourning bells rang out, dull and loud.

Recalling when he first ascended the throne, he was so high-spirited and vigorous, but now, it has finally come to an end.

Inherited from generation to generation, the next chapter of the Qing Dynasty will be continued by Nian Shilan...

"Your Majesty, you yourself did not expect that you would fall for this Huan Yi Xiang..."
