"If it's inconvenient for you to say it, then don't say it. I won't make it difficult for you." Nian Shilan might be a little disappointed, but she wouldn't force Yu Ying'er to ask too many questions, because she was very sure that Yu Ying'er would not stab her in the back like Qi Yuebin did. She was willing to give Yu Ying'er her own privacy.

She believed Yu Ying'er and also believed Fu'er's instructions.

"Your Majesty, thank you. But it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that this matter is too bizarre, and I don't know how to tell you." Yu Ying'er always respected Nian Shilan. It was not the respect of a lower person for a superior, but the respect of a small person for someone she admires.

Nian Shilan smiled, and her smile was so bright and beautiful that Yu Ying'er was dazzled. It was as if she saw a fairy from the sky, noble and unattainable.

"Okay, I'll wait for you. Wait until you can explain it to me clearly, wait until you are willing to explain it to me." When Nian Shilan looked at Yu Ying'er's appearance, he thought of Yu Ying'er who was strangled to death in his dream. His heart suddenly ached so much that he couldn't help but reveal a distressed look.

It is hard to imagine how scared and painful such a timid and self-dependent little girl must have felt when she was strangled to death by the rope.

"Ying'er, I will help you get revenge." Nian Shilan had originally given up the idea of ​​fighting in the palace, but because of that dream and Yu Ying'er's death, she began to resent Zhen Huan and An Lingrong.

She didn't even hate Cao Qinmo who stabbed her in the back, nor the emperor who was so cruel and heartless, but she hated An Lingrong who asked Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi to strangle Yu Ying'er to death, and she just wanted to kill her.

"I will help you deal with An Lingrong, as for Zhen Huan..." Nian Shilan thought of the Zhen Huan in her dream who was extremely favored by the emperor, the Zhen Huan who opposed her everywhere, and she felt so angry that her teeth were itching.

Zhen Huan was also one of the main culprits who framed the Nian family. Even though she was not as favored in this life as in the drama, Nian Shilan would never forget the smug face of Zhen Huan before her death in her dream.

A mere concubine had the audacity to comment on state affairs and even let the emperor listen to her opinions, harming the Nian family and forcing herself to death. How daring!

Yu Ying'er heard this, and she understood what Nian Shilan was talking about. Maybe it was something that happened in her previous life. She had God's eyes and saw the whole process, but...

"Your Highness..." Yu Ying'er pulled Nian Shilan's hand in panic, "No, Your Highness, I just want you to be happy. Don't dirty your hands for me. Then An promised, I will have a way to solve it, but I may have to rely on your power by then."

"Whatever belongs to me is yours. Not to mention my power, even if you want my people and my money, I will give it to you without saying a word." Nian Shilan didn't think that Yu Ying'er would harm her, so she was very generous.

Yu Ying'er nodded and thanked him.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day to go to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat. Accompanying them were the Empress Dowager, the Empress, concubines with children, concubines of higher rank than concubines, the royal heir, Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan, Fei Yunyan, and An Lingrong, who was named by the Empress to go along.

During the journey, although Ming Shilan was nearly five months pregnant, she still took good care of Yu Ying'er without asking anyone else to do anything for her. She even served her food and drinks personally. There was a peaceful scene between the two of them, and there was even a bit of ambiguity.

Chunxi and Songzhi, who were guarding nearby, saw this scene, looked at each other, and saw smiles in each other's eyes. Then they both guarded the carriage more closely to prevent anyone from spying on what was going on inside.

Fei Yunyan and Cao Qinmo lived in the same sedan chair.

Since Fei Yunyan's father and brother both worked under Nian Gengyao, she had been following Nian Shilan since she entered the mansion. As Nian Shilan's number one lackey, she was very dissatisfied with Yu Ying'er, who had been getting more and more favor from Concubine Hua in recent days, and she couldn't help but complain.

"I don't know what kind of seductive tricks this Concubine Rou used to make the Emperor and the Royal Concubine look at her differently. She even outshines us all." Fei Yunyan was unhappy and grabbed the curtain twice to vent her emotions.

Cao Qinmo held Wen Yi in his arms and coaxed her patiently, but he had no time to say anything more to this fool Fei Yunyan.

Seeing that Cao Qinmo ignored her and only coaxed the child, Fei Yunyan couldn't help but nudge Cao Qinmo with her elbow and asked, "Are you going to let that Concubine Rou always get ahead in front of Concubine Hua? Look, since she became friends with Concubine Hua, how long has it been since Concubine Hua summoned us to the palace to pay respects?"

"The child hasn't been born yet, and the enthronement ceremony hasn't been held yet, but it's not appropriate to call Concubine Rou. Be careful not to ruin the child's fortune." Cao Qinmo felt a little hurt by Fei Yunyan's rebuke so thoughtlessly. Such a sudden remark was a hint.

Fei Yunyan kept muttering that the child had not been born yet, her eyes revealing clear stupidity and a hint of subtle viciousness, and everything she was thinking was shown on her face.

Cao Qinmo couldn't bear to watch it, so she just ignored it and coaxed Wen Yi to go to sleep, so that she wouldn't be unable to sleep due to the shaking.

It was finally quiet here, and Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong were sitting in the same carriage.

Because of the good work done by Zhen Huan in the past period of time and some advice given to the emperor, she was promoted to a noble lady and is now on equal footing with Shen Meiyu.

None of the three were the main empress, nor were they chosen by the emperor, so they could only squeeze into an ordinary sedan chair.

The three of them sat together, seeming a bit crowded, and looked at each other in silence.

Shen Meizhuang, however, was thinking of something and said, "Now Concubine Hua is in a party, has a son and is favored, and Concubine Rou was even able to be canonized as a concubine because of her child. It is enough to imagine how important a child is. Huan'er, Lingrong, we have to work hard too. If we have a son or a daughter, we will have someone to rely on for the rest of our lives, right?"

When Shen Meizhuang said this, she had already forgotten that An Lingrong had not yet slept with him.

As soon as she finished speaking, An Lingrong's face turned pale and she felt very sad.

Zhen Huan was a considerate person to begin with. Seeing An Lingrong's expression, she quickly held their hands together and said, "Offspring are important, but it is also important for us sisters to help each other. Don't let others hurt our friendship."

When An Lingrong heard this, tears welled up in her eyes and she looked at Zhen Huan with great emotion.

Shen Meizhuang shook Zhen Huan's hand back and said, "Huan'er, what you said is absolutely right."

……

The sedan chair was bumpy all day before they entered the Old Summer Palace just before dark. The empress had already arranged accommodations for them. Yixiu lived in Taohuawu, Nian Shilan lived in Qingliang Palace, Qi Yuebin lived in Shangxiatianguang, Li Jingyan lived in Pinghu Qiuyue, Feng Ruozhao and Shen Meizhuang lived in Xianyue Pavilion, Fei Yunyan and Cao Qinmo lived in Siyi Study, An Lingrong lived in Wuling Chunse, and Yu Ying'er lived in Tianran Tuhua.

Although the natural painting where Yu Ying'er lived was also beautiful, it was too far away from Qingliang Palace. So Yu Ying'er asked the emperor to move to Qingliang Palace and live with Nian Shilan.

After asking Nian Shilan's opinion, the emperor agreed. The emperor still had some affection for this soul substitute of Wanwan.

Yu Ying'er was very happy to be able to live with Nian Shilan, but Nian Shilan was helpless.

"Are you not happy about being farther away?" Nian Shilan felt helpless as she looked at Yu Ying'er, who could only lie in bed to recuperate.

The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, ah... what else can you do, just pamper them.

Yu Ying'er pouted slightly, looking unhappy: "Your Majesty is willing to let me stay so far away from you. If I encounter an accident in that natural painting, the yin and yang of your Majesty... well..."

Before Yu Ying'er could finish her words, Nian Shilan stopped her mouth with two unarmored fingers and accused her with an unhappy look on his face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I will not allow you to separate from me! Since you have provoked me, don't think of escaping easily!" Nian Shilan said proudly, announcing her ownership.

Yu Ying'er felt warm at heart when she saw Nian Shilan coolly saying that she was hers. When her eyes touched Nian Shilan's slender, white, jade-like fingers, she licked them subconsciously.

So sweet...

Yu Ying'er's subconscious action made Nian Shilan tremble. She immediately withdrew her hand and stood there in a daze as if she had been electrocuted. If you look closely, you can even see Hua Fei's rosy ears and her eyes full of disbelief but some surprise.

"You...you you you..." Nian Shilan pointed at Yu Ying'er and was speechless. However, she was afraid that Yu Ying'er would do it again, so she abruptly retracted her finger, "You have no shame!!"

Yu Ying'er looked at Nian Shilan's appearance and couldn't help but burst into laughter, without any manners at all.

Just when Nian Shilan was about to explode, Songzhi's voice came from outside.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li and Concubine Cao request to see you."
