Chapter 2431 The best way is to lure the tiger away from the mountain
Nan Yan looked at them quietly.
At this time, she looked tired, moved her body and almost fell asleep on the couch. Everyone saw that her eyes were full of fatigue.
Everyone shut up.
Aunt Tongyun whispered, "My Lady...?"
Nan Yan pinched the bridge of her nose and said softly, "Forget it, all of you can leave. I'm a little tired and want to rest."
Everyone looked at each other.
Indeed, not to mention the whole day of moving things, just the quarrel with the emperor was enough to make her exhausted.
Just now, after hearing so many words from everyone, her mind must be in a mess.
Aunt Tongyun could only say softly, "Then, Madam, please go to bed early."
"Go down."
Nan Yan waved her hand, and everyone bowed and left the main hall.
After everyone left and closed the door, Aunt Tongyun turned around, stared at Nianqiu with a gloomy face, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter with you, girl? Can you say such nonsense?"
Nian Qiu said aggrievedly: "Aunt Tongyun, I feel sorry for the queen."
"Just because you feel bad, you can say whatever you want?"
“…”
"You're so outspoken. Not to mention in the palace, if others heard you, you'd be in danger of losing your head. Even in an ordinary big family, you'd be spanked, you know?!"
“…”
Hearing this, Nian Qiu's expression flickered slightly.
He murmured unconsciously, "Didn't I just get beaten?"
Aunt Tongyun was stunned, then she remembered that the emperor had her dragged away and beaten with a stick. The imperial concubine was favored, and those around her also enjoyed honor, with rewards and praise being commonplace. But she, alone, had not received any rewards at all these days, not to mention being beaten.
I thought the matter was over, but I didn't expect she still remembered it.
Aunt Tongyun sighed.
He said in a deep voice: "Since you've been beaten once, why don't you learn your lesson?"
“…”
Nian Qiu lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then smiled and said, "I understand."
Seeing her like this, Aunt Tongyun couldn't blame her anymore.
He just said, "Okay, you guys go down, I'll stay here."
Ruoshui asked, "Aunt, why are you staying here? Didn't the Queen ask us to leave?"
Aunt Tongyun said, "We just moved in today and are so tired. Your Majesty is still not familiar with everything. If you want tea or water in the evening, I will serve you. Okay, you guys can go down and rest. There are still some things in the side hall that have not been cleaned up. We will continue to clean them up tomorrow."
"Why."
After saying that, Nianqiu and Ruoshui went to the lower room together.
When she entered the room, Ruoshui turned around and saw Nianqiu looking out, and asked, "What's wrong with Sister Nianqiu?"
Nian Qiu said, "I feel a little bored and want to go out for a walk to relax."
"Then I'll accompany you."
"No, I want to walk alone."
"Oh, okay then. Sister, please come back early."
"Um."
Nian Qiu turned and walked out, leaving Ruoshui alone sitting on the edge of the bed. Thinking back to what had happened in the past two days and the sad look on the imperial concubine's face, she couldn't help but sigh.
He murmured, "Even gods have their own troubles."
It soon became dark.
The news that the imperial concubine had moved from the emperor's bedroom to the Yonghe Palace spread throughout the harem early in the morning. However, because the move was still in progress, no one went to congratulate her.
However, everyone has different opinions on this matter.
When Fu'er came back from seeing the guests off, she saw Chen Lianxiang sitting at the head of the bed with a sneer on her face.
Then he stepped forward and said, "What are you thinking about, Madam?"
Shen Lianxiang was silent for a while.
Then she said in a voice that was indistinguishable from her emotions: "I don't know whether I should be happy or angry."
"ah?"
"It seems that the imperial concubine is just like this."
“…”
"Before, I saw her with both children and domineering behavior in the palace, but it turns out that it's so easy for her to fall."
"yes,"
Fu'er smiled as she spoke of this, saying, "Although she moved to Yonghe Palace, it wasn't a grand or lively move. Only Eunuch Shun brought a few young eunuchs to help her move. From the looks of it, it seemed as if she was being kicked out."
"Get out."
These three words made Chen Lianxiang smile, and she glanced at her: "You're so smart."
"My Lady, isn't it?"
"That's right. I've been thinking for a long time about what words to use, and these three words are the most appropriate."
Fu'er giggled.
However, the smile on Chen Lianxiang's face did not continue. Instead, it slowly sank and said, "It's just because of that imperial physician."
Upon hearing this, Fu'er frowned.
"Doctor Xue, it turns out he is a——"
Chen Lianxiang sneered and said, "I was wrong."
“…”
"If someone hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have thought of it."
Fu'er said carefully, "Your Majesty, you said that this is just a royal physician who doesn't look very feminine and is far inferior to the concubines in the harem. Could the emperor really be interested in her?"
“…”
Chen Lianxiang thought for a while with a sullen face, and said, "That's hard to say."
“…”
"Speaking of the imperial concubine, who can compare with that face?"
“…”
"Isn't it because I've been favored for so many years?"
“…”
"It's just that she's old now, and it's natural for her to give up her position. It's just that—"
"However, you shouldn't give it to anyone but an imperial physician. Your Majesty has always been so obedient to the Emperor."
When this was mentioned, Shen Lianxiang's expression became even gloomier.
She wanted the imperial concubine to step down, not to replace her. If she did so, wouldn't she be making things difficult for others by taking such a big risk?
Seeing her eyes flickering, Fu'er whispered, "Does the queen have any plans?"
“…”
"Should we find a way to deal with that imperial physician, or take this opportunity to give the imperial concubine another blow and completely crush her?"
"She was stepped on so hard that she couldn't get up?"
Chen Lianxiang squinted her eyes and thought for a while, then said, “This, I’m afraid, will be very difficult.”
"Difficult? Why?"
"Not to mention that she has been favored for many years and has given birth to a son and a daughter. These two children are like amulets to her. In addition, many of her relatives hold positions in the court, and her uncle is the de facto Prime Minister."
“…”
"With a family background like hers, if the family doesn't fall, no one in the harem will be able to step on her. Just look at what happened to Wu before and you'll understand."
Fu'er nodded and asked, "Then, what should we do?"
“…”
"If she had stayed in power, Her Majesty's life would not have been easy."
Chen Lianxiang sneered and said, "I still say the same thing. To deal with a powerful enemy, the best way is not to kill the tiger, but to lure it away from the mountain."
Fu'er's eyes lit up.
Said: "That's why the Queen instructed that person——"
