After Yu Ying'er's rebirth, she became addicted to teasing Concubine Hua

Chapter 116 Temporary Reconciliation with the Emperor

Nian Shilan slowly came back to his senses and slowly raised his eyes to look at Ye Lanyi who was standing against the light and questioning him to defend Yu Ying'er. He seemed to really see some of the feelings of his childhood in her, proud, indulgent and disdainful.

Everything was so free and easy, but unfortunately... there's no going back.

"Fu'er has done everything to gain her hope of survival. How can I let her get involved in what I am going to do? It's best if she has nothing to do with me anymore. It's best if she becomes my sworn enemy." Nian Shilan touched her face, as if she felt the tears falling down. "Three years at most. I hope you can do as I plan."

Although Ye Lan'yi didn't know who the Fu'er that Nian Shilan was talking about was, nor did she know what Nian Shilan wanted to do, why he chose her to do it, or why he was crying at this moment, she understood that Nian Shilan drove Yu Ying'er away in order to protect her.

That's enough.

Ye Lanyi did not ask Nian Shilan about her plan, she just followed Nian Shilan obediently, waiting for Nian Shilan to arrange the next task for her. She was already related to the Nian family, and was taken care of by the two elders of the Nian family. This could be considered as repaying a favor. The two ladies were more or less benefactors to her, but Yu Ying'er, the fairy who came against the light, was the light of her life.

Chuxiu Palace

Yu Ying'er walked tremblingly even when supported by someone. Even when she was lying on her bed, she still hadn't found the sense of reality. She just felt dizzy and couldn't see clearly what was ahead.

"Empress." Chun Le felt distressed. Looking at Yu Ying'er who was absent-minded and looked like she had suffered another serious illness, he didn't know how to persuade her. He struggled for a long time but couldn't say the words.

"You go down, I want some quiet time." Yu Ying'er's mind was a mess. She didn't know why she and the Empress had gotten to this point after she fainted once.

She didn't mean to harm Qiqi, really not.

Chunle opened his mouth, but finally looked at Yu Ying'er's exhausted appearance and said nothing. He first took off Yu Ying'er's hairpins and makeup, then pulled Xiao Lingzi, who was even more confused than himself, back out, and stumbled out of Yu Ying'er's room to look for Chunxi.

The whole room suddenly became quiet and dim, just like Yu Ying'er's mood at the moment.

In the past, Qiqi always accompanied her during such lonely times. Now, there is only a quiet and empty room left and she herself has no idea where her future lies. Yu Ying'er just feels so cold, dark and scared.

"Miss."

Just as Yu Ying'er curled up into a ball and her tears soaked the pillow, Chunxi's voice came from the door.

"Your Majesty, I'm coming in." Chunxi didn't hear Yu Ying'er's response and was worried, so she couldn't help asking again and pushed the door open.

Yu Ying'er felt uncomfortable at the moment and yelled angrily, "Get out!"

Chunxi paused for a moment, and waited for about half a minute. Seeing that his wife hadn't moved, he sighed slightly, closed the door, and walked forward. He didn't care about Yu Ying'er's look, and just sat beside her where she could see him, not saying a word, and accompanying her.

At the same time, the emperor in the Yangxin Palace received two pieces of news, good and bad. The good news was that Hongyao had a clue, and Hongyao actually captured the leader of Japan as a prisoner, completely conquering Japan, but Hongyao was also seriously injured; the bad news was that Xia Qian successfully collected information that the culprits for Hongyao's disappearance and injury were the Queen Mother and Zhen Huan. What they were planning was nothing more than killing Hongyao, and pushing Hongshi or Hongli to the throne as a puppet emperor in the future, and letting the two of them manipulate them.

The Queen Mother did this naturally for her youngest son, Yunzhen, and Zhen Huan did this purely to take revenge on the Emperor. She knew the news that Zhen Huan was dead, and it was Concubine Qi who found a way to escape and tell her.

The emperor's joy at receiving the former news was completely wiped out by the latter news. The emperor had a gloomy face the whole day and people were afraid to approach him.

On that day, the emperor went to Shoukang Palace, and the emperor ordered the empress dowager to move to Lishui Palace to recuperate due to illness. She would leave the next day, and then came the news of Zhen Huan's sudden death.

This news came so suddenly that the news of Nian Shilan's breakup with Yu Ying'er, which he had finally publicized, was completely overshadowed by these two pieces of news, and it could not cause any disturbance.

The emperor sat on the upper seat in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, fiddling with the beads in his hand, his facial expression extremely heavy. Su Peisheng and Xiao Xia Zi beside him had the same expression, not daring to anger the already extremely angry emperor.

It was unknown how long it had passed before the emperor said, "Concubine Wan will be buried according to the etiquette of a concubine. Concubine Hui will be promoted to Concubine Hui. Princess Xihe's jade disc will be changed to Concubine Hui's name. Send someone to bring the Fourth Prince back to the palace and record him under...Concubine Li's name."

The emperor originally did not want to choose Concubine Li, but after thinking about it, he realized that in the entire harem, Concubine Li was the only one without children, and it would not be appropriate to bypass the childless concubine and give an adopted son to a concubine with children.

After saying this, the emperor suddenly felt very tired. Thinking of Yu Ying'er, who must be feeling very aggrieved at the moment, he stood up and asked someone to go to the Yangxin Palace.

When the emperor arrived at Chuxiu Palace, he noticed the depressed mood inside the palace. He frowned slightly, and without paying any attention to the people who were paying their respects, he pushed the door open and walked in.

"Your servant greets the emperor." Chunxi was startled and got up from the ground beside the bed. When she saw the visitor, she quickly bowed and greeted him.

Yu Ying'er, who was lying on the bed with no interest in life, seemed to have only raised her eyes lazily after hearing the word "Emperor". There was no light in her eyes, and she said weakly: "Your Majesty is here. I am tired and unwell. I am afraid I cannot greet Your Majesty. Please don't blame me."

Seeing Yu Ying'er's look, the emperor waved his hand to let Chunxi go down, then walked to the bed and sat down, stretched out his hand to scoop Yu Ying'er into his arms, and tapped Yu Ying'er's nose unhappily: "Isn't it just that Shi Lan rejected you? Why are you acting like this? Hongyao will be back in Beijing soon. As a mother, do you still want to let your son laugh at you?"

"But the queen doesn't want me anymore." Yu Ying'er just muttered this sentence as if she couldn't hear anyone.

For the first time, the emperor felt so directly that he was very important to Yu Ying'er in her heart. His face changed and he wanted to throw her away and leave in anger, but in the end, he didn't know what he thought of and could only smile helplessly.

"Even if Shilan doesn't want you, I still want you! I will always be with you." The emperor was surprisingly gentle.

This gentleness was somewhat strange, causing Yu Ying'er's eyes to slowly focus for a moment. She looked at the emperor in confusion. She only felt that her eyes were covered with mist, making it difficult for her to see the emperor's true face, and she didn't know whether this gentleness was a mask.

Confused and helpless, these negative emotions almost filled Yu Ying'er's heart, and she was a little depressed.

"Your Majesty?" Yu Ying'er seemed to have just seen who was in front of her. Her eyes slowly gathered and finally she came back to her senses. "I have said nonsense. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter whether it's nonsense. Ying'er, promise me that you won't mention anyone else in front of me in the future. Be a Ying'er who only loves me, okay? At least you belong to me at that moment." The emperor felt really exhausted physically and mentally. He only had cautious testing left in his relationship and really couldn't stand betrayal.

The Empress Dowager, whom he respected, wished that he would have no children to pave the way for her youngest son. The Empress, who had been his bedmate for many years, was now a well-known vicious woman. His concubine had an affair with his younger brother in an attempt to confuse the royal heir... He could no longer tell what was reality.

Every time at this time, he always thinks of the days when he and Wanwan were in love. At that time, he was not as obsessed with Wanwan as the rumors said. It was just that he had to be a small character who was obsessed with beauty and only knew how to enjoy the flowers and the moon, with the man farming and the woman weaving, so as to avoid the brothers' quarrels and the suspicion of his father. But it must be said that the years he spent with Wanwan were his happiest time. At that time, he didn't have to think about anything. He and Wanwan were just an ordinary couple, with the man farming and the woman weaving.

Those days can never be returned...never be returned.

You can say that he truly loves Yu Ying'er, or that he is using the person in front of him to reminisce about the time that has passed and can never be retrieved, now he can only seek the only bit of light in Yu Ying'er.

"Okay." Yu Ying'er agreed gently. She saw the seriousness in the emperor's eyes and didn't want to be the one who spoiled the fun forever.

He believes in her now, so she will not let him down at this moment, but that's all. Let the two of them reconcile temporarily.
