Chapter 1096: It is easy to write a word together, but it is difficult to unite people’s hearts
The next morning, Nan Yan got up early.
The war was still going on outside, and even though they were now living in the Golden Mansion and had people to serve them, it couldn't be too easy. However, letting her daughter sleep next to her last night and listening to her snoring still made her feel at ease.
It would be great if this storm could pass quickly.
After getting up, she drank the medicine sent to her. It was so bitter that her face wrinkled, but the hoarseness in her throat did ease a lot.
I tried coughing twice and it didn't hurt as much.
Nan Yan smiled and heard the murmur behind her again. She turned around and saw Xiao Xinping still crawling on the bed with her little butt raised high. Just as she was about to call her, she burrowed into the quilt like a groundhog.
Nan Yan couldn't help but smile and said to Ran Xiaoyu, "Let her sleep a little longer. She must have suffered a lot in the past two days."
"yes."
Ran Xiaoyu brought some hot water and helped her wash up.
After combing her hair, Nan Yan suddenly remembered something and asked, "Where is the emperor?"
"Your Majesty, he has been at Liuhe Hall."
"Didn't you go out?"
"I heard, no."
"oh……"
Although he knew that now was definitely not the time for them to go out and have fun, there was a battle on the city wall last night, but Zhu Feng stayed in the villa and didn't care about the war outside.
Is he so reassured?
But Zhu Xuan, could he be defeated so easily?
Just as he was thinking about it, the doorman walked to the door and said softly, "The Queen is here."
Xu Miaoyin is here.
Nan Yan turned around and exchanged glances with Ran Xiaoyu. Both of them were a little surprised at the sudden arrival of the Queen, but they immediately stood up, walked over, and knelt to greet her: "Your Majesty, the Queen."
Xu Miaoyin walked in from outside.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Queen."
Xu Miaoyin walked in and sat directly on the chair. She glanced at the quilts piled on the bed. Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly said, "Don't blame me, Queen. The princess is tired and is still sleeping. I will wake her up now."
"No need."
Xu Miaoyin raised her hand to stop her, and smiled again: "The child is sleepy, I don't care about this."
As he spoke, his voice became softer.
Nan Yan said softly, "I wonder what instructions the Queen has for you."
Xu Miaoyin said, "It sounds like you have no problem speaking now. Your injury has healed a lot."
"I took some medicine today and I feel much better."
"I also know that you must have suffered a lot of grievances these days."
"I dare not."
"It's good that your injury has healed. At least you can say what you need to say yourself."
“……?”
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment.
There seemed to be something else behind these words. She glanced at Xu Miaoyin carefully and said with a smile, "What does the Queen want me to say?"
“…”
Xu Miaoyin looked at her, thought for a moment, and then said, "My Lady, the Emperor hasn't completely remembered you, and hasn't asked you about your past, right?"
Nan Yan nodded slightly.
And my heart has sunk a little.
She realized that Xu Miaoyin came to her at this time because of Zhu Feng.
Is there something wrong again?
Xu Miaoyin let out a deep breath and said, "Actually, I understand what the emperor means. For some things, it's better to listen to, see, and feel them yourself than to hear others say them. That's the most real thing, don't you think?"
Nan Yan nodded: "Yes."
"But..." Xu Miaoyin continued, "No matter how you listen, see, or feel, it's all about people. Listening, after all, is about listening to what people say; seeing, after all, is about watching what people do."
“…”
"If someone has ulterior motives and intentionally says or does something..."
Nan Yan's heart trembled slightly: "What does the Queen mean -"
Xu Miaoyin smiled.
She said, "My Lady, as the Queen, I only hope for peace and prosperity. There are many things that I can avoid asking about, and I will turn a blind eye to them. But not everyone in the harem is like me."
“…”
"Nan Yan, there is no harem here, but where there are people, there are right and wrong."
“…”
"You, understand what I mean, right?"
Nan Yan looked at her quietly for a while, then leaned forward gently: "I understand."
"I understand."
Xu Miaoyin smiled, then stood up and walked to the bedside. Looking at Xinping, who was sleeping with a face full of saliva, she smiled and reached out to touch her nose. Then she said with a smile, "The child is so cute. She shouldn't be wronged."
“…”
"As a mother, you must protect yourself before you can protect her."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Nan Yan sent her out the door, and the expression on her face gradually became solemn. When Xu Miaoyin's back disappeared in front of her, she slowly turned around, returned to the bed, and looked down at Xiao Xinping, as if thinking about something.
Ran Xiaoyu said, "What does the Queen mean by saying these inexplicable words?"
Nan Yan said, "Someone spread rumors about me in front of the emperor."
"What?!"
When Ran Xiaoyu heard this, she opened her eyes wide in shock: "Who is it?"
As soon as she finished asking, she immediately realized: "Qin Ruolan?"
Nan Yan nodded.
“It’s her indeed!”
Ran Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "Before the Emperor lost his memory, it was because of her meddling that caused the Emperor to appoint her as Consort Ning. That's why I left Peking with the Princess in a rage. Now, what does she want?"
“…”
"It's a pity that Your Majesty still cares so much about the King of Wei, yet she actually harmed Your Majesty like this! This is really too much!"
“…”
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have done this for the King of Wei—"
"Xiaoyu."
Hearing that Ran Xiaoyu was already somewhat exasperated, Nan Yan spoke up to stop her: "This matter has nothing to do with the King of Wei. There is no need to vent your anger on him."
"But she's going too far!"
"I know."
Nan Yan sighed: "She can be grateful to me for what happened to the King of Wei, but, for herself and for the Emperor, she can also be selfish."
"She's selfish and shouldn't hurt others!"
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then said calmly, "It's easy to write harmonious characters, but it's hard to unite people's hearts."
Ran Xiaoyu said hurriedly: "Then what should the Queen do? You can't just let her talk nonsense. You have to explain to the Emperor."
"good."
Nan Yan nodded and was about to walk out, but after taking two steps, she stopped.
Ran Xiaoyu asked, "What's wrong?"
Nan Yan said, "I still don't know what she said to the Emperor. If I rashly explain it, I'm afraid it will only make the Emperor more suspicious."
"What should we do then?"
Just when the two of them were hesitating, another loud noise was heard in the distance.
That was the sound that had echoed through the night sky for a long time last night and was familiar to everyone.
Nan Yan suddenly raised her head and looked forward.
"The rebels have begun attacking the city again!"
