Chapter 2429 Who cares?
The despair in her daughter's eyes also made her heart ache.
But she still said calmly: "Who told you not to be a son? You are a daughter, and I will let you do what a daughter should do. Get married, isn't that good?"
“…”
At this time, Xue Yun was speechless.
Even her eyes were cold.
She stared blankly at her mother for an unknown amount of time before she slowly turned around and said in a tone without any question or emotion: "It's getting late, mother, go get some rest. Yun Xiang-"
Yun Xiang hurried in from outside.
Xue Yun asked, "Is the room tidy?"
Yun Xiang hurriedly said, "The room prepared for the old lady has been prepared. It's just in front."
"Okay, help the old lady to rest."
"yes."
After Yun Xiang finished speaking, he walked in front of Wei and said softly, "Old Madam, please."
Wei frowned, looking at her daughter standing there with her back to her, motionless and heartbroken. Although she felt a little reluctant, she also knew in her heart that the overall situation was much more important than one person's mood.
Then, he said, "You better prepare well."
After saying that, he followed Yun Xiang away.
Xue Yun didn't move at all, just standing there alone. Her thin figure gave people a feeling of loneliness, as if she was the only one left in the world.
The sky is getting darker and darker.
The night, as if slowly swallowing something, gradually permeated the world. Gradually, the entire hall fell into darkness, and she, too, was gradually enveloped by it...

Although the emperor gave two days to move, in order to let the imperial concubine settle down earlier, Xiao Shunzi took people and moved all the things to Yonghe Palace in just one day.
By the evening, everything was ready.
Nan Yan walked in and saw that this originally empty and quiet palace was now filled to the brim. For a moment, she felt as if she didn't know where she was.
At this time, Xiao Shunzi walked up to her and said softly, "My Lady."
Nan Yan seemed to come to her senses and looked down at him.
"Shun, Eunuch."
"Your Majesty, please take a look and see if there is anything wrong. I will let them continue."
"No need, I am fine here."
"That's good, your majesty, please go to bed early."
After saying that, Xiao Shunzi turned around and left.
Nan Yan thought for a moment, then looked up and called out to him, "Eunuch Shun, please stay."
"Um?"
Xiao Shunzi stopped and turned around and said, "Does the queen have any other instructions?"
“…”
Nan Yan's eyes flickered, as if she wanted to ask something, but after hesitating for a long time, she couldn't bring herself to ask.
Looking at her expression, Xiao Shunzi also smiled bitterly.
Although the emperor had asked him to bring people to clean up Yonghe Palace before, he knew what was going on and was happy for the imperial concubine for a long time, but for some reason, the two of them suddenly started quarreling again.
You know, the imperial concubine is not just an imperial concubine now. Although she has not been officially canonized, she holds the phoenix seal on behalf of the emperor. Now she has moved to Yonghe Palace, and her status is almost the same as that of the empress dowager.
The discord between the emperor and the empress is not a good thing.
Especially those who serve like them, they only hope that the emperor and empress live in harmony and everything goes smoothly. If the two of them are not in harmony, who knows what kind of trouble some restless people in the harem will cause.
So, people are in panic.
He thought about it, then walked directly to the imperial concubine and said softly, "I haven't eaten or slept."
“…”
What he said was naturally directed at the emperor.
Nan Yan's expression changed immediately when she heard this. She gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "I didn't ask that."
When Xiao Shunzi heard this, he could only smile and say, "Yes."
“…”
"Then, what does the Queen want to ask?"
Nan Yan thought about it, and finally asked, "The Emperor said yesterday that he wanted to give Doctor Xue a title. Has the decree been issued yet?"
"not yet."
"not yet?"
"Yes, but I've already sent someone to Doctor Xue's residence to pass on the message."
"oh,"
Nan Yan's breath trembled slightly, and she said, "She, what did Doctor Xue say?"
Xiao Shunzi smiled bitterly and said, "That's exactly what's strange."
"What?"
"Imperial Doctor Xue hasn't been to the palace for the past two days. He said he resigned, but his name hasn't been removed from the Ministry of Personnel yet. I don't know the details of his situation."
Nan Yan was silent for a while before nodding.
"You've worked hard. You should go back and rest."
"Then, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, Xiao Shunzi left Yonghe Palace with a few young eunuchs.
As soon as they left, Aunt Tongyun and Nianqiu, who had been standing nearby and overheard their conversation, immediately surrounded them. Nianqiu's eyes widened in shock as she said, "Your Majesty, you just said that the Emperor wants to give Doctor Xue a title?"
Nan Yan glanced at her.
Without saying a word, he slowly walked to the couch and sat down.
The layout of Yonghe Palace was different from her Yiku Palace and the emperor's bedroom. The windows were relatively high, and although the couch was placed next to the bed, the light from outside could not shine directly on her face. Instead, it cast a shadow.
The shadow on her face was like a haze.
She said lightly: "Not bad."
Everyone was shocked.
No wonder the Imperial Concubine looked strange when she came back yesterday. It turned out that—
Everyone looked at each other.
It seems that what they had been worried about has come true.
Nian Qiu said softly, "Sister Xiaoyu has always been wary of this woman. I didn't expect that even with all this caution, she still couldn't prevent it. She actually climbed onto the dragon bed so quickly."
“…”
"You're trembling all day long, like you have no bones. Who are you trying to show off to?"
“…”
"Just looking at her makes me upset. I didn't expect that she is really a——"
The word "bitch" was almost out of her mouth. Nan Yan glanced at her and she came to her senses. She had been scolded by the imperial concubine last time, so she could only shut her mouth immediately.
At this time, Nan Yan didn't have the energy to scold her, and only said lightly: "Talk less."
"Your Majesty..."
Aunt Tongyun frowned and whispered, "Why would the emperor suddenly want to confer a title on her?"
“…”
"Besides, give her a status, what status should we give her?"
Ruoshui, standing aside, tilted her head and thought for a long time before saying, "When I was carrying the box over here just now, I heard someone say that the Empress is now living in Yonghe Palace, just like the Empress. If the Emperor wants to make our Empress the Empress, does that mean he wants to make her a Noble Consort?"
Nian Qiu immediately said, "If that's the case, then I don't deserve to be the queen."
“…”
"Who cares?"
“…”
"It's like making room for her. Who is she?"
Aunt Tongyun frowned and said, "Nianqiu, you've forgotten yourself again."
Nan Yan did not speak immediately, but just looked at them in silence.
After a while, she suddenly said, "If the emperor really wants to appoint her as a concubine, what do you think I should do?"
