Chapter 2880 You have to pretend to like her
Tingfu glanced at her again and said softly, "He also said a few words to that Concubine Yao..."
Hearing his words, Nan Yan hadn't said anything yet, but the people around her frowned, and even Xin Ping couldn't help pouting: "What!"
Nan Yan glanced at her.
He didn't say anything immediately, but asked Tingfu: "Is it the emperor talking to her, or is it she talking to the emperor?"
Tingfu said: "The emperor asked her two questions."
"oh……"
Nan Yan nodded gently, then waved her hand and said, "I understand. You can go down."
"yes."
Tingfu retreated.
In fact, although Tingfu liked to ask questions and tell Nanyan all the news he heard, he didn't say much about the concubines in the harem showing up in front of the emperor.
After all, it would be really strange if the concubines in the harem didn't want to show their faces in front of the emperor.
This time he took the initiative to bring it up, which shows that he was a little unhappy.
Not only him, even a peaceful person like Aunt Tongyun showed dissatisfaction between her brows, which shows how unwelcome Yao Ying was for standing up this time.
However, Nan Yan didn't say anything to them. She just asked them to leave and she had dinner alone with Xinping.
Instead, he was calm and looked like he had no appetite and didn't even drink the soup.
Nan Yan said softly, "What's wrong?"
Xinping pouted: "Mom, I hate that Concubine Yao!"
Nan Yan asked, "Why do you hate her? Just because your father spoke to her?"
"I don't hate anyone Father talks to, I just hate her!"
"Why?"
"Because she's such a fake person!"
"Her? Very fake? How do you say it?"
Xinping jumped down from the stool, ran to Nanyan's side, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I don't believe she wrote that eulogy for Empress Qing. She couldn't even cry in the mourning hall!"
Nan Yan asked, "How do you know?"
Xin Ping said, "I saw her take a piece of ginger and wrap it in a handkerchief. When she couldn't cry anymore, she would wipe her eyes with the handkerchief, and she would cry as soon as she wiped her eyes."
“…”
"I was thinking about how kind Empress Qing was and I was sad, so I cried. But she, she wasn't sad at all!"
Nan Yan couldn't help but smile.
I didn't expect that Xinping, at such a young age, had such sharp eyes that she could notice such a small thing.
She asked, "Well, have you told anyone else?"
Xinping snorted coldly, "I was too lazy to tell you, but she pretended to be nice to Queen Qing to get Father to pay attention to her. I won't agree! I hate her. I'll tell Father later!"
Nan Yan smiled and gently touched her face.
Then she said, "Xinping, I have something to tell you, you must remember it."
Xinping opened his eyes wide and looked at her seriously: "What does mother want to tell me?"
Nan Yan said, "The more you hate someone, the more you should pretend not to care. No matter what she does, don't get angry. You should even pretend to like her and pretend to be close to her."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because, if you do this, she won't know that you hate her, and she won't know what you are going to do."
“…”
"Wouldn't this make you safer and prevent you from being harmed?"
Shinpei blinked.
After all, she was still young. Although the words were simple, she didn't quite understand the meaning. After thinking for a long time, she nodded with great effort: "Son, I understand."
After saying that, she walked back to her stool and sat down.
He held the bowl, but did not continue eating. Instead, he thought intently for a long time, then looked up at Nan Yan and asked seriously, "Mother just said that I should pretend not to hate her so that she doesn't know what I am going to do. But what should I do?"
“…”
"Still, who's going to do what?"
Nan Yan smiled but did not answer the question. She just picked up some more food and put it in her bowl.
Softly said: "Let's eat."
Xinping didn't get her answer, so he stopped asking and continued eating with confusion.
The Imperial Concubine's mourning hall was set up for three days. During these three days, Nan Yan would bring Xin Ping and Xiao Cheng Jun to the Ji Yan Hall to burn incense every day, while Zhu Feng also returned to the bedroom to rest.
On the third day, King Wei Zhu Chengxuan finally returned to the capital.
When Nan Yan received the news, she was dining with her two children in Yonghe Palace. When she heard that the King of Wei had returned, Xin Ping immediately said happily, "Brother is back!"
Little Chengjun, who was sitting in a chair and being fed by Ruoshui with a spoon, was crying with joy.
“Brother, brother!”
Nan Yan said helplessly: "You guys are closer to my brother than to me, your mother!"
After that, she asked, "Then, where are the people of the King of Wei?"
Tingfu said, "His Highness the Prince of Wei had already learned about the Imperial Concubine's situation on the way. He changed his clothes and went straight to the Jiyan Palace."
Nan Yan thought about it, and then let the two children finish their meal and took them over.
As soon as I arrived at the door of Jiyan Hall, I heard sobbing sounds from inside.
When I walked in, I saw Zhu Chengxuan kneeling in front of the coffin, crying his eyes out.
In fact, his relationship with Xinqing is deeper than that with Nanyan. After all, Xinqing is an elder in Prince Yan's Mansion and has watched him grow up. When Zhu Chengxuan was not liked by Prince Yan, Xinqing often tried to smooth the relationship between the father and son.
To him, Xinqing is also a kind mother.
But now, she is gone too.
Seeing Zhu Chengxuan looking exhausted, obviously without any sleep as he rushed back day and night, he was crying so hard that he could hardly hold back. Others did not dare to persuade him, nor was it easy to persuade him.
Only Nan Yan walked forward and held his arm.
"Your Highness."
Zhu Chengxuan raised his head, his face full of tears, and looked at Nan Yan and cried, "My Lady, how could this happen?"
“…”
"Why did she leave too?"
“…”
"Can't I keep any of the people around me, the people I care about?"
Seeing him crying, Nan Yan's eyes also turned red, but she couldn't say a word.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are the greatest sufferings in life, and this kind of suffering is impossible to avoid no matter how high your position is or how much wealth you have.
She couldn't persuade him, and there was no way to persuade him.
He could only step forward and gently hold the child when Zhu Chengxuan was crying bitterly.
After crying in her arms for a long time, Zhu Chengxuan finally calmed down.
My eyes are red from crying.
Xinping and Xiao Chengjun originally wanted to come over to see their brother, but when they saw their brother crying, they didn't dare to go forward. Xinping held her brother's hand until she saw that her brother had calmed down. Then she cautiously went forward and whispered, "Brother..."
Zhu Chengxuan looked at them with red eyes.
Bend down and hug your younger brother and sister.
He whispered, "You all have to be good and obedient, and never get into any danger. I will protect you, and I won't let anyone take my loved ones away from me again!"
