After the matter was discussed, Nian Shilan was delighted to see Hongyao sitting obediently in Yu Ying'er's arms and chewing his fingers, and she quickly asked someone to bring the child over to "play with him".

Although Nian Shilan is already a mother, she is a novice mother who doesn't know how to take care of children. Fubao is mostly taken care of by the wet nurse and Songzhi. She is only responsible for playing with Fubao every day. So in her opinion, children are there to be played with.

Seeing Hongyao looking like he had lost all hope in life and was letting others rub him against him, Yu Ying'er's lips curled up slightly.

This child seemed to be a little precocious, or maybe he was just like me… Wait! Just like me?

Yu Ying'er suddenly looked at Hong Yao, whose behavior, expression and eyes were like those of an adult. Her heart seemed to explode with shock and fear.

"The Emperor has arrived."

Just when Yu Ying'er was lost in her own fantasy and her face turned pale with fear, Su Peisheng's singing and shouting came from the door, bringing Yu Ying'er, who was almost in a nightmare, back to reality. She couldn't help but gasp for breath.

Seeing the emperor walking in, Nian Shilan hurriedly stuffed the baby in her arms into the hands of the wet nurse and stood up to salute.

Yu Ying'er and Cao Qinmo also moved quickly. After looking at each other, they stood up and saluted.

"Your Majesty, your servants pay their respects to you," the three said in unison.

"Sixth Prince pays his respects to the Emperor." The wet nurse led the Sixth Prince to pay his respects.

I don't know what the emperor did, but he seemed to be in a good mood. Zhen Huan was following him. It seemed that the two of them might have come from the Yangxin Palace on a whim.

"Stand up." After the emperor approached, he helped Nian Shilan and Yu Ying'er up, one in each hand. As for Cao Qinmo, she could only stand up by herself without any expression after being exempted from the formalities.

After all, Zhen Huan was just a noble lady, the one with the lowest status in the room, so naturally she had to pay her respects to the ladies. Only after completing the formalities could she stand with the emperor.

"I was chatting with Concubine Wan about the Third Princess and the Sixth Prince, and I heard that Ying'er brought the Sixth Prince to the Yikun Palace, so I thought of coming to take a look." The emperor had long noticed that the Yikun Palace had not lit Huanyi incense for a long time, but Nian Shilan used the reason that it was not good for the children, so he could not say much and could only control their food and clothing.

Nian Shilan was able to get pregnant once, and luckily it was a daughter, but what if it happened a second or third time? The emperor did not dare to gamble, so he naturally had to use some tricks.

"Songzhi, go and bring the third princess here quickly, and tell her that the emperor misses her." Nian Shilan smiled brightly, but this smile only appeared when she mentioned her own daughter, not for the emperor.

But the bright and outspoken Nian Shilan was the beauty that the emperor had loved for a long time in his memory, and he was stunned for a moment.

When he came to his senses, he realized that because he was standing, the others did not dare to sit down. He quickly asked everyone to sit down and told the wet nurse to bring the Sixth Prince over so that he could have a look at him.

Hong Yao looked at his emperor father in this life, and felt uncomfortable when he thought that this was his black-faced fourth brother.

The emperor saw Hongyao's aloof look, and the words he wanted to say to praise the child fell apart in his mouth. He could only reorganize his words: "Hongyao is a very obedient child. Ying'er said he likes to listen to books? It seems that he loves to learn."

Yu Ying'er replied yes and thanked Hongyao for the compliment.

Zhen Huan couldn't help but look at Hong Yao, thinking about the child she hadn't given birth to, she felt very uncomfortable. She felt uncomfortable, and the emperor felt uncomfortable too, so when the emperor summoned her to sleep with him, he would often look at her for a long time, and finally sleep with her clothes on. If this continued, how could she have the chance to be promoted to a concubine by giving birth to a child? How could she gain a foothold in the palace?

The emperor saw Zhen Huan looking around and couldn't help but ask, "It seems that Concubine Wan likes the Sixth Prince very much. Hurry up and bring him over to show Concubine Wan."

Upon hearing this, the nurse politely carried the Sixth Prince to Zhen Huan, shouting, "Sixth Prince greets Lady Wan."

If you don’t reach the position of a concubine, you are not worthy of being called Her Majesty.

Zhen Huan smiled bitterly and said, "Sixth Prince is so cute. If..."

After saying this, Zhen Huan shed tears, as if she was very sad.

Hearing this, Yu Ying'er's face turned a little ugly. She bit her lip subconsciously, looking a little at a loss.

Seeing this, Nian Shilan was unwilling to indulge Zhen Huan, so she started to confront her directly.

"If Concubine Wan can't protect the child, it's because you are unlucky. Why do you use the child that hasn't even been born yet to annoy Concubine Rou and the Sixth Prince?" Nian Shilan couldn't see that Zhen Huan was using the child to win the emperor's favor, but these words were really unpleasant to hear and made Nian Shilan very unhappy.

Nian Shilan was a person who protected her shortcomings. Anyone who bullied her was equivalent to bullying her. How could she agree? Zhen Huan's move hit a wall.

The emperor obviously didn't expect it to be so awkward. Zhen Huan would occasionally miss the son who died before he was born with him, but he would only think of that pile of meat paste and cartilage, and a chill spread through his body. He didn't like her bringing it up, so Zhen Huan stopped bringing it up after one or two times. Now it seems really unlucky to bring up the topic with the Sixth Prince.

"Okay, Shilan, Concubine Wan has finally gotten over the grief of losing her child, and now she is acting like this because she is reminded of the past. You, don't get angry and hurt yourself. You should learn to be more generous like Ying'er." The emperor tried hard to comfort Nian Shilan, but he didn't think that what he said also made Nian Shilan and Yu Ying'er feel uncomfortable.

Tsk... being generous in feelings is what makes people point at and bully you.

The wet nurse who was holding the Sixth Prince was being stared at with meaningful eyes. She was terrified and hugged the Sixth Prince tightly, not daring to speak or move, and just stood there frozen.

Nian Shilan couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly and said, "Whatever the emperor says is fine. Xue, why don't you take the Sixth Prince back home!"

The emperor frowned slightly and looked at Xue. Following Xue's direction, he saw Yu Ying'er, who had tears in her eyes and was about to cry at Hongyao. His dissatisfaction disappeared immediately and he felt that it was Zhen Huan's fault alone.

"Hongyao must be sleepy too. Liang, take him back to rest first." The emperor sent Liang away, but his eyes were always on Yu Ying'er. Seeing that she was staring at Hongyao as he left and didn't even pay him the slightest glance, he actually felt a little jealous of his own son.

After the emperor calmed down, he said, "The prince of Junggar wrote to me not long ago and asked to marry a legitimate princess. My eldest daughter Shuhe is only six or seven years old now, so she is not a good choice. After discussing with the empress dowager, I decided to confer the title of Princess Chaogui of the previous emperor as Princess Gulun and marry her to Junggar. The empress had a severe headache today, so I plan to let you, Shilan, preside over this matter, with Concubine Rou and Concubine Wan assisting you. What do you think?"

The emperor looked at Zhen Huan's face which was similar to Chun Yuan's every day, and thought about the fact that Zhen Huan had no children before, so he wanted to promote Zhen Huan. But Zhen Huan had just entered the palace and had no children, so it really needed a reason to promote her to a concubine, so he simply found something for Zhen Huan to do, so that she could have an achievement to speak for herself.

"Fubao is still young and depends on me. I'm afraid I can't help you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Nian Shilan looked at the emperor as he spoke, glancing at Zhen Huan from time to time. She couldn't help rolling her eyes. She really didn't want to be a pushover, so she began to refuse directly. However, she still leaned lazily on the chair, not admitting her fault at all.

The emperor frowned slightly.
