Chapter 579 The Day of Enthronement 10
Gu Tingchun and the others were shocked again when they heard this.
Emperor, do you really like it?
This seems to be something that ordinary people dare not even think about.
Emperor, do you really like Si Nanyan?
Gu Tingqiu said, "Neither your Si family nor our Gu family has anyone serving in the imperial court, so it's not like the Emperor needs to rely on us."
“…”
"So, now it's not Si Nanyan who relies on you, but you have to rely on her, so that Mu Yun can embark on a career in the government."
“…”
"If the emperor only wanted to enrich his harem, there would be plenty of women who could enter the palace through the annual selection. Why would he go to such great lengths to promote Si Nanyan?"
“…”
"Moreover, she was canonized as a noble concubine right away?"
“…”
"The Emperor went south to Yongzhou and north to Beiping, and both times he took Nan Yan with him. I even heard that the Emperor once risked his life for her. The depth of their love is something you and I probably can't imagine."
“…”
"But I can be sure that the emperor really, truly likes her."
“…”
"That's why she was canonized like this."
Gu Tingqiu took a deep breath and then said, "Now, think about it, a woman that the emperor truly loves is about to be canonized as a noble concubine, but someone disrupts and obstructs her."
“…”
"What do you think the emperor would think?"
“…”
"Will he be grateful to the person who came out to obstruct him?"
“…”
"Si Mulan is simply blinded by greed. She thought that by ruining Si Nanyan's plans and joining Concubine Kang, she could climb the social ladder. However, she doesn't have the emperor's favor, nor the family's support. How could she do that?"
These words were like thunders exploding above Gu Tingchun's head.
For a moment, she was so shocked that she lost all reaction.
After saying that, Gu Tingqiu turned back and stared at Gu Tingchun, saying word by word: "Sister, now is the time for you to make a choice."
“…”
"One is your biological daughter, but she may bring your Si family to hell."
“…”
"There is another one, although she is not your biological daughter."
“…”
"But as long as you are willing to express your stance to her now, your Si family still has a glimmer of hope!"
“…”
"The premise is that you don't leave the road to extinction!"
When Si Muyun heard these words, he understood everything.
He quickly turned around and grabbed Gu Tingchun's hand, holding it tightly, saying, "Mother, you can't be confused this time. Uncle has already made it so clear!"
“…”
"Our Si family cannot be destroyed in an instant!"
“…”
"Mother!"
Gu Tingchun was shaking all over.
At this moment, a young eunuch came over, raised his hand and saluted Gu Tingchun, then said expressionlessly: "Madam Si, the emperor wants to summon you."

Nan Yan sat in the Yiku Palace. Although it was almost summer, she was shivering all the time and her fingers were as cold as ice.
Ran Xiaoyu held her hands tightly with both hands.
Although, even Ran Xiaoyu's hands were trembling slightly.
Not long after the emperor left the hall, they were invited back here.
On the way, Ran Xiaoyu subconsciously wanted to go to the Ye Ting, but Nan Yan used the last bit of her consciousness to say to her: "Go to Yikun Palace."
Then, they arrived here.
But when he arrived at the Yiku Palace, he did nothing.
Because there is nothing that can be done.
The only thing they could do was wait, which was probably what everyone was doing tonight.
Nan Yan had been sitting on the stool, her eyes wide open, her hands trembling slightly on her knees, while Ran Xiaoyu was busy running around, accompanying her all the time.
In a blink of an eye, it was dark.
There were still palace maids who remembered to bring them food, but at this time, they naturally couldn't eat anything.
Nan Yan didn't even drink a sip of water.
It was as if thousands of voices were constantly clamoring in her head, preventing her from calming down for even a moment.
She is actually from the country of Neng?
She was actually the baby girl her father brought back from the Kingdom of Dang?
she……
Can’t be with Zhu Feng…?
Every thought was like a knife, piercing deep into her heart.
She raised her head, looked at the dark night sky outside, and whispered, "What time is it now?"
Ran Xiaoyu took a look.
"It's past midnight."
"Outside--"
"They're still making a fuss."
"What's going on?"
“…”
I felt that Ran Xiaoyu had fallen silent.
Nan Yan looked down at her and said, "Tell me now, I want to know what happened."
Ran Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I heard that some officials have submitted a petition to the emperor requesting that you be executed."
"oh?"
"They say you were sent by the enemy to tempt the emperor into indulging in beauty."
“…”
"They also said that since you were with the emperor, you must have passed on a lot of confidential information to the Kingdom of Dian."
“…”
"People like you can't stay."
Nan Yan listened calmly and then smiled.
Ran Xiaoyu also sneered.
She said, "Just treat those fools' words as a joke."
“…”
"I will kill anyone who dares to touch you!"
Nan Yan looked at her with some emotion, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yu, you are so kind to me."
This time, Ran Xiaoyu did not ridicule her for being "sentimental".
Just looked at her seriously and held her hand tightly.
After a long silence, Nan Yan finally spoke again, but her voice was unusually hoarse: "Where is the emperor?"
Ran Xiaoyu's breathing also stopped for a moment.
Nan Yan asked seriously, "Where are the others?"
Ran Xiaoyu was silent for a while, then said, "I heard that he has been in the imperial study."
“…”
"Lord Heyi, Lord Jian, and Ye Zheng, have always been by his side."
“…”
"All those ministers outside wanted to see him, but they couldn't."
“…”
Nan Yan listened quietly and sat quietly for a while.
Then stand up.
However, because she had been in the same position for too long, her legs were numb and she stumbled as soon as she stood up. Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly hugged her: "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine."
Nan Yan waved her hand, then raised her head and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to see him."
"What?"
"I'm going to see the Emperor."
"But--"
"It's okay, Xiaoyu." Nan Yan glanced at her, smiled, and said seriously, "Although this matter may seem lively outside, it's actually just between the two of us."
“…”
"Whatever he decides, I should be the first to know."
“…”
"I want to see him!"
After saying that, she stood up and walked out of Yikun Palace resolutely.
However, just as she approached the imperial study, she saw someone walking out.
The familiar figure made her stunned.
