It would have been better if she hadn't said anything. When Concubine Chun mentioned it, Yan Wan immediately frowned, looking uncomfortable. She rubbed her forehead and snorted like a spoiled child, "I'm fine, Concubine Chun, I'm just too tired from walking."

Su Lujun's expression froze, and she didn't know what to say for a moment. She thought for a while, and then said, "Concubine Ling is so delicate, she should take the sedan chair next time, otherwise she will be overworked and get sick again."

Su Lujun didn't even know what she was saying. Is there anyone in this world who would be so tired just from walking?

The world is so big that nothing is impossible. She adjusted her mindset and maintained her honest smile.

Hai Lan felt sick listening to what was said. Wei Yanwan was being so pretentious and Concubine Chun was trying to comfort her.

Ruyi still maintained her flawless smile. Not wanting to see Wei Yanwan pretending, she interrupted and asked, "Is there something important that has brought you here today, Concubine Ling?"

"I heard that the emperor has restored Concubine Jia's position, so I came to greet Concubine Xian." Yan Wan said sincerely, with a hint of fear in her tone. She twirled her handkerchief in her hand, widened her eyes, and shook her head gently, saying, "She made such a big mistake and framed Concubine Xian. She really doesn't deserve to be restored to the throne."

Hai Lan tilted her head to look at the pattern on the blanket on the ground, suddenly sneered, then looked up at Yan Wan's expression and said, "Whether they are suitable or not, that is the emperor's decision. Why are you in such a hurry, Concubine Ling?"

She turned her head away from looking at Yan Wan, and grabbed another melon seed, seemingly whispering softly, but in fact, she was hiding a lot of sarcasm.

Hai Lan had a smile on her face. She chuckled and said, "What are you worried about?" Then she pinched the melon seeds with two fingers and put them into her mouth.

Yan Wan frowned and looked at Hai Lan sincerely, "I am just worried about Jiapin. If she falsely accuses Concubine Xian again, and Suo Xin is gone, who will stand up for her and risk their lives to prove her innocence?"

The smile on Hai Lan's face immediately stopped. She squinted her eyes, revealing a hint of coldness, and threatened, "Don't worry, Concubine Ling. No one can frame you."

Yan Wan patted her chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's right. Sister Yufei is protecting Concubine Xian like this. She will definitely risk her life to protect Concubine Xian's innocence."

"Sisters Yufei and Xian Guifei have such a sweet relationship." Yan Wan said with a smile.

"I think if Sister Yu Fei was framed, Concubine Xian would risk her life for her."

These words seemed to touch Concubine Yu's heart deeply. She turned her head to glance at Ruyi who was sitting beside her.

Ruyi had her hands on her legs, shelling nuts gracefully, with her elbows resting on the armrests of the chair, making a sullen face, as if she was immersed in her own world.

When she heard Wei Yanwan's verbal trap and felt Hailan turning her head to look at her, Ruyi slowly raised her head, glanced at Wei Yanwan who was smiling brightly, and then looked at Hailan who was a little nervous and a little expectant.

She nodded slightly and smiled, "That's natural."

Hai Lan felt slightly relieved, smiled at her dear and respected sister, and then glanced at Wei Yanwan coldly.

Yan Wan looked relieved, and said with some emotion in her tone, "That's great."

Then she suddenly became sad again, complaining to herself, "My sisters all have some support, unlike me. First, I don't have a good family background, and I can't rely on my mother's family to get promoted like Concubine Jia; second, I don't have any children. It would be nice if I could have a well-behaved and lovely child like Concubine Chun and Concubine Yu."

"Even my sister's favor may be gone tomorrow." Yan Wan sighed again, her face full of sadness.

"What Concubine Ling said was just making fun of us. Who else is more favored than you? You have been promoted to the position of concubine in just a few years. I believe the emperor really loves you." Su Lujun looked at Yan Wan who suddenly became sad. She felt a little bit reluctant in her heart and began to persuade her.

"Thank you, Imperial Concubine Chun." A tear accumulated in Yan Wan's eyes, hanging on her lower eyelashes. She looked up at Imperial Concubine Chun.

The beauty shed tears, and this drop of crystal tears instantly flashed Su Lujun's heart.

Concubine Chun opened her mouth, slowly took out her handkerchief, and slowly handed it to Yan Wan. But before she could hand it far, Yan Wan took out her own handkerchief and wiped it gently, and the flawless tear was wiped away.

For some reason, Su Lujun felt a little empty inside.

Yan Wan sobbed softly again, squinting her eyes and looking at Ruyi with extreme pity, "Even my sister wanted to have a child, but she couldn't."

What Ruyi was chewing at the moment seemed not to be melon seeds, but Wei Yanwan's hypocritical skin. She bit her teeth tightly together, and looked straight at Yanwan with a sharp look that could penetrate hypocrisy.

"Forget it, forget it." Yan Wan lowered her head. She could no longer control the smile on her face and quickly covered her face with a handkerchief.

Others just thought that she was sad and fragile, like a paper-pasted window, and was probably crying secretly.

Hai Lan frowned, looking down on Wei Yanwan's crying appearance, feeling very annoyed.

Yan Wan wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and when she looked up again, her eyes were red, and she had a forced smile on her face, "We can't say anything no matter how dissatisfied we are, otherwise the emperor will be angry."

"We are just sisters, just talking, nothing will happen." Su Lujun comforted with a smile.

Yan Wan nodded, her eyes full of smiles, looking at Concubine Chun, and said softly and earnestly, "Sister Concubine Chun, you are so kind." Then she tilted her head slightly and smiled sweetly at her.

Concubine Chun's face suddenly became shy and she felt a little nervous. No one had ever thanked her like this before, just because she said a few words of comfort.

For decades, she had always been a peaceful and kind person, with a good temper to the point of being a little weak.

In the palace and even in the harem, she was always the one who tried to smooth things over when people were having unpleasant conversations, but no one had ever seen her.

The emperor did not favor her. He just thought she was fertile and had several sons. However, he still despised the sons she taught because they were stupid, incompetent and not smart.

Everyone knew that she was kind and friendly, but no one had ever truly thanked her.

It was not a reward from Concubine Xie Chun, it was not Concubine Xie Chun asking people to stand up, it was not Concubine Xie Chun's praise, it was to thank her for being a good person, thank her for her help, even if it was just something she did or said casually.

She opened her mouth, wanting to thank Yanwan and thank her, but she felt that this was too stupid and would definitely make Ruyi and Hailan laugh to death.
