Chapter 164 Nian Shilan's Speculation

After the Queen left, Nian Shilan and Shen Meizhuang in the room looked at each other secretly. They knew that at this time Zhen Huan actually did not want the Emperor to stay here.

"Your Majesty, it is indeed getting late. How about I stay here with Sister Huan while you go back and rest early, as you have to attend the morning court tomorrow morning?"

After thinking for a moment, Nian Shilan finally decided to make a suggestion.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am also a little tired. Your Majesty, why don't you go back first?"

Just as Nian Shilan guessed, in Zhen Huan's heart, she would rather have her sisters by her side at this time.

"Alright, I'll be leaving now. Huanhuan, have a good rest. If you need anything, be sure to tell me immediately."

The emperor thought about it and did not reject Zhen Huan's proposal. He also knew that Zhen Huan was sad at this time, and it would be good if she could calm down alone.

After saying this, the emperor comforted Zhen Huan a few more times and then left Yongshou Palace. Before leaving, he asked Wen Shichu to take good care of Zhen Huan.

"Huan'er, how are you now?"

After the emperor left Yongshou Palace, Nian Shilan and Shen Meizhuang hurried to Zhen Huan's side and looked at her pale face with concern.

"Don't worry, my two majesties. Concubine Xi is currently fine. She just needs to rest well in the future. Also, that is..."

Wen Shichu, who was standing aside, thought about it and decided to tell the truth: "In the past two years, Concubine Xi's body is really not suitable for pregnancy again, so please be careful about this matter in the future."

Considering the damage done to her body by the twins back then and the damage done to her body by the miscarriage today, it would take Zhen Huan several years to fully recover.

"Of course. No matter what happens, your own health is more important. I'll have to trouble Doctor Wen to prepare some nourishing prescriptions in the future. I'll definitely need to take good care of Sister Huan."

Nian Shilan agreed with what Wen Shichu said.

Although having children is the only way to gain a foothold in the harem, if you can't even take care of your own body, how can you protect your children? What's more, Zhen Huan already has two children now. If she has another child, it will be double happiness. On the contrary, there is no need to force it.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will do my best. Now I will go check on the progress of the decoction. Your Majesty is still very weak. I suggest that you rest more and relax."

After saying that, Wen Shichu bowed and left the house, leaving the place completely to the sisters.

"Sister Huan, I know you're not feeling well right now, but since it's already happened, we should try to let it go. It's just that you and this child are not destined to be mother and child yet, but it will definitely come again in the future."

Nian Shilan knew that when faced with such a situation, no matter how much words she used to comfort her, it would be pale and powerless, and Zhen Huan would have to accept everything slowly on her own.

"Sister Hua, Sister Mei, I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm fine. It's just that she stayed in my belly for several months. I could even feel her fetal movements in my belly. I didn't expect that in the end..."

Zhen Huan was not too surprised by this result. At the beginning, Wen Shichu told her that this pregnancy was very unusual, but she was just gambling on her luck. Sure enough, she was disappointed.

Knowing that Zhen Huan had not recovered much energy at this time, Nian Shilan and Shen Meizhuang looked at each other and decided to let Zhen Huan rest first.

"Huan'er, Sister Hua and I will stay with you in your palace today, but you need to have a good rest now."

Chen Meizhuang gently extended her hand and placed it above Zhen Huan's eyes. She had just seen clearly that Zhen Huan actually had no energy left and was just forcing herself to hold on.

Zhen Huan listened to Shen Meizhuang's gentle words and felt the sense of security they brought her. She felt sleepy and no longer forced herself to do so. She let herself fall asleep peacefully.

Looking at her steady breathing, Nian Shilan winked at Chen Meizhuang and took the lead to walk out of the bedroom.

"What's wrong? Sister Hua, do you have anything to say?"

Shen Meizhuang followed closely behind. She originally wanted to stay by Zhen Huan's side all the time, but looking at Nian Shilan's expression, it seemed that she had something important to discuss with her.

"When the Queen was here just now, I observed her carefully. She didn't seem surprised by what happened to Sister Huan this time. It was almost as if all this was part of her plan."

Nian Shilan carefully explained her recent discovery to Chen Meizhuang, especially the Queen's very slight reaction.

Chen Meizhuang knew very well how much the Queen hated them, so she didn't think that Nian Shilan's guess was overthinking.

"But these are just our guesses. If we say this in front of the Emperor, he will definitely not believe it. It might even alert the enemy and put us in a passive position."

Chen Meizhuang expressed her thoughts very calmly. If possible, she would like to catch the Queen's handle as soon as possible. However, in the absence of a perfect plan, she knew very well that what they said would never hurt the Queen's foundation, and might even cause the Queen Mother's dissatisfaction.

"Zhou Ninghai, immediately issue orders to thoroughly investigate every corner of Yongshou Palace, and to thoroughly question everyone in the palace. If anyone can discover anything unusual, I will reward them handsomely. Furthermore, I will extend extra mercy to anyone who can provide useful information. I will discuss with Concubine Xi and release them from the palace."

For the maids who can serve the nobles in the palace, they are very reluctant to get involved in the fights between concubines. Some ordinary rewards may not make them willing to take the risk and stand up on their own initiative. However, Nian Shilan is also very clear that few people who come in to be palace maids do so voluntarily. For them, regaining their freedom is the most important thing.

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

When Nian Shilan came to Yongshou Palace, she thought that things here would definitely not be peaceful tonight, so she asked Zhou Ninghai to bring some of her own people over. Fortunately, she and Zhen Huan have a very close relationship now, and they trust each other enough. Otherwise, if she did this, other people would definitely think that she wanted to take the opportunity to place her own people in Yongshou Palace.

"Sister Hua, do you think the Queen has her hands on Huan'er?"

Looking at Nian Shilan's actions, Shen Meizhuang frowned. If it was really as she guessed, then Huan'er's accident this time would not be an accident.

"We can only rule it out for now. If Sister Huan's body was really tampered with, then there is only one possibility that Doctor Wen couldn't see. That is, someone had already targeted Sister Huan when she was just pregnant. The person who could do that must be someone close to Huan'er."

Chen Meizhuang analyzed calmly, but she knew that if it was true as she guessed, Huan'er would definitely be sad when she woke up. After all, the people who could stay in Yongshou Palace now were people she trusted.
