Chapter 102: Fascinated by Old Deng
[The new head of the Imperial Household Department is stupid and doesn’t know how to distribute the rouge. The emperor gives them to other women in front of her and doesn’t give her any.]
[She even had to move the steps herself.]
【It is true that the word "forbearance" runs through one's life. 】
Jingpin was already accustomed to being treated coldly and didn't care about those things.
But I didn't expect that the person in the harem who was willing to understand and know myself would be her.
Perhaps influenced by Concubine Hua, Concubine Jing also cursed in her heart:
The emperor really never interferes with other people's affairs.
[However, in her last life, she caused that bastard Zhen Huan to suffer a great loss and almost lost her confidant. Just for this reason, I will fight for her position as a concubine.]
Let Zhen Huan suffer a huge loss?
Why?
Jingpin looked across the lake. The future was really unpredictable. Would she become an enemy of others?
Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan on the other side of the river simply accepted the Fourth Prince's greetings and left without saying much.
Nian Shilan originally didn't want to talk to the Fourth Prince, but in order to get rid of Concubine Jing, she walked towards the Fourth Prince.
"Your son pays respects to Madam Hua, may Madam Hua be blessed with good health and good health."
In the entire harem, Concubine Hua is the most favored and powerful, and the Nian family is backing her up. If one can get her protection, one will be able to leave this hellhole, the Old Summer Palace.
Change your future.
Therefore, the person that the Fourth Prince wanted to curry favor with the most was actually Concubine Hua.
But Concubine Hua always ignored him, so he had to look for someone else.
Seeing Concubine Hua coming towards him, he was overjoyed. Even the old maid behind him knelt down excitedly and said, "This old servant pays homage to Concubine Hua. May Concubine Hua live in peace and happiness."
"Get up."
Hearing Concubine Hua's words, the Fourth Prince immediately said, "Madam Zhang, I have something to say to Empress Hua, please stay away."
Nanny Zhang stepped back immediately.
Nian Shilan roughly guessed what the Fourth Prince was going to ask, "Prince, please send Aunt Zhang away, but do you have something to ask me?"
The Fourth Prince knelt down and said, "I am sorry for being so abrupt. I would like to ask Madam Hua, does the Emperor dislike me?"
Nian Shilan heard that this wild child often went to the Qinzheng Palace recently, and it must be that the Empress did not stop him and allowed him to cause trouble for the Emperor.
How can a son of a royal family be pure and honest?
She did not answer, but asked: "You went to the Qinzheng Palace to pay your respects. Did the emperor see you?"
The Fourth Prince shook his head.
"Then, my brother, do you think that the emperor has left you here all year round and never comes to see you? Does that mean he likes you?"
At best, this is just a statement of fact, and it can't be considered as sowing discord, right?
Nian Shilan looked at the Fourth Prince.
Granted, he is a bit cunning, but he is still young and his complexion shows clearly that he is not doing well.
"Could it be that the Emperor is too busy to see his son?"
Are you looking for an excuse for your father?
Nian Shilan thought for a moment and said, "The Emperor summoned Gong Changzai to sing for the whole afternoon yesterday."
The young heart was struck by lightning again.
The Fourth Prince opened his mouth and stammered, "I don't mean to cause trouble for the Emperor. If the Emperor is really too busy, I can help him..."
"right!"
This was the only affirmation Nian Shilan could give, "You are a prince, so you should share the emperor's worries."
The Fourth Prince's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Whether it was true or false, Nian Shilan couldn't tell.
She said, "Master Zhang Tingyu just left, and the Fourth Prince is going to the Qinzheng Palace now. He may be able to see the Emperor."
"Thank you, Madam Hua. I will take my leave now."
The Fourth Prince left happily, his steps so fast that he seemed to want to fly.
After the Fourth Prince walked away, Zhou Ninghai asked in confusion, "The Emperor doesn't like the Fourth Prince, and the Empress doesn't like him either. Why are you wasting your breath today to give him advice?"
"How can a father and son hold grudges overnight? It would be better if they could see each other more often."
If we see each other more often, the relationship will be completely broken and everything will be fine.
Nian Shilan looked at the Fourth Prince's back and had an idea in her mind: If the conservative method cannot save her brother, then they might as well be more radical.
What are the children of the Nian family afraid of?
It's nothing but a dead word.
"Zhou Ninghai."
"The servant is here."
"Go and call Andaying to Yinfeng Palace."
"Yes, I will go right away."
Chunxiaoju is not too close to Yinfeng Palace, but it is farther away than from Qinzheng Palace to Yinfeng Palace. Nian Shilan had already walked halfway, but when she returned to Yinfeng Palace, An Lingrong was already waiting there.
It can be seen how eager An Lingrong was to come over when she heard that Concubine Hua had summoned her.
"I pay my respects to Concubine Hua."
"There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so polite."
Nian Shilan passed by her and sat down, and said straight to the point: "Princess Wen Yi's birthday banquet will be held in a few days. You should dress up nicely and sing a song. Don't let others steal your limelight."
[No matter who performs the shocking dance, they will steal the limelight from her! ]
An Lingrong originally wanted to say that she was not famous and just didn't dare to embarrass herself, but she thought that Concubine Hua would not like her self-deprecating words, so she changed her words:
"I will practice hard in the next two days, and I will not embarrass you when the time comes."
[This voice is much more confident than before. ]
【That's how it should be! 】
[I have been in the harem for many years, relying on my family background and beauty. You have nothing, but you can still blow up the harem, which shows that you are capable. You should be more tough.]
Lingzhi brought tea and Nian Shilan took a sip.
[The Queen is still not good enough. Little Bird has been with her for too long, and her face is full of sarcasm and a dark aura is everywhere. Look at her, she has only been with me for half a year, and she looks so cute now. ]
【As expected of this palace. 】
[The clothes are elegant, the makeup is gentle, hey, when did the hair curtain disappear? ]
It has been combed up long ago!
Did the Queen finally notice it?
【Wouldn’t this fascinate Old Deng?】
An Lingrong took the initiative to ignore this sentence. She held the teacup - she drank the tea for a long time because she couldn't suppress the corners of her lips:
Do you think you look good like this, too?
Nian Shilan put down the teacup and said, "It was fine in the past, but this time it's the princess' birthday, in front of everyone, you have to seize this opportunity."
[After Wen Yi's birthday, your disappointing father is going to get into trouble. You are favored in advance. When something happens, you don't need anyone else. You can go to the emperor to explain yourself.]
Is something going to happen to Daddy?
An Lingrong was nervous for a moment.
[Oh, no, An Bihuai will never be imprisoned again in this life. ]
