"It's ridiculous to be a human being," Shen Meizhuang sneered, "In the past, I only thought about her getting retribution as soon as possible and wished she would die right now. But now that she has really gone, I can't bear it."

"My sister can't bear it. It's because of my kind heart and conscience. It has nothing to do with anything else. It's just that the debt will be wiped out after death. Seeing that she has received her retribution, I don't have to worry about it anymore in the future." Concubine Ji continued.

"I heard that Mrs. An also died a tragic death. Before she died, she kept crying and begging to see the emperor. She begged the emperor to spare her family. If she refused, she would die. The emperor ordered her to commit suicide. The eunuch could not execute the execution because he was afraid of offending her. Holy Wrath, he personally took action, and I heard that half of his neck was broken." Concubine Jing said with regret.

There was a moment of silence.

"The harem has undergone major changes, and it should be stable for a while." After a while, Shen Meizhuang said calmly.

"I hope so." Concubine Jing responded.

Xia Dongchun took a sip of tea and changed the topic calmly, "I heard that the emperor has been obsessed with elixirs in recent days, and often summons young Chang Zai to agree to stay with him. Didn't the imperial doctor say that the dragon's body must be carefully maintained?"

Hearing this, Concubine Jing sighed, "The Queen Mother is not concerned with worldly affairs now. I and the Concubine have also tried to persuade the Emperor, but the Emperor is obsessed with this. No one's persuasion is of any use. Although the elixir is effective, the imperial doctor also said that it does more harm than good. , If things go on like this, I’m afraid the dragon’s body will be completely wasted.”

Shen Meizhuang's face was a little colder and he didn't answer.

Concubine Ji also sighed and said, "I also tried to persuade him from the side, but to no avail. I was almost reprimanded. The emperor seems to be becoming more and more extreme now."

Shen Meizhuang snorted coldly, "Huh, not only that, I heard that the emperor has recently appointed several pretty and lovely officials and promised to accompany them. Isn't our emperor getting stronger with age?"

Concubine Jing's face changed after hearing this, and she looked at Shen Meizhuang with a bit of surprise, surprised that she said such impudent words, "I know that my sister resents the emperor in her heart, but she must be careful what she says, and be careful that walls have ears." Concubine Jing said softly.

"Sister, you are too worried. Now that you and I are in charge of this harem, who can cause any trouble? If so, I must let her know that not everyone is destined to die on this blood-stained road. Let's go." Shen Meizhuang's eyes became a bit stern.

Concubine Jing sighed, she was not worried about this, but she and Concubine Huang were really worried about the emperor's dragon body.

In the afternoon, Nian Shilan stood outside the gate of Qingyan in Kyushu with the lotus seed, lily, ginseng and antler soup that he had stewed himself.

It was really hot, and it was going to be hot in a few days. When Su Peisheng saw that it was Concubine Nian who had not been seen for a long time, he hurriedly invited people in.

"It's hot outside. Your Majesty, please sit in the front hall for a while. The Emperor is still taking a nap. He should wake up in less than two minutes."

"Thank you, Eunuch Su." Nian Shilan nodded.

"Your Majesty, you're welcome."

Nian Shilan asked Lan Zhen to put down the soup cup, and then sat down quietly.

There was silence in the hall. Nian Shilan sat quietly in trance, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a moment, a hoarse voice from the back bedroom called, "Su Peisheng."

The emperor woke up from his nap, and Su Peisheng hurriedly brought people in to wait on him.

After the emperor packed up, he came to the front hall and saw Nian Shilan standing in the hall waiting for him.

It seems that he just realized today that Shilan, who was so bright and bright a long time ago, is now a little more demure. Maybe it's because she became a mother-in-law.

"You've been waiting for a long time, why don't you sit down and wait for me?" Nian Shilan stepped forward to help him up and salute. "If you want to see me, please send someone to tell me, why are you here in person on this hot day? You are not feeling well due to the heat. I remember that you had a bitter summer in previous years." The emperor said with concern, After saying that, he pulled Nian Shilan and asked her to sit down on the chair.

"The emperor has been busy recently. Fuhui hasn't seen Amma for a long time, so he muttered a few more words. The concubine also thought of the emperor's dragon body, and personally stewed lotus seed, lily, ginseng and antler soup, which is the most refreshing and rejuvenating. The Old Summer Palace is cooler than the Forbidden City. Now, my concubine's bitter summer is not as serious as in previous years." Nian Shilan said with a smile, she knew that the emperor loved her bright smile the most.

"You are considerate. I remember that you used to do this often, cooking by yourself and making soup for me." The emperor recalled endlessly.

Nian Shilan's eyes dimmed, then she smiled again, raised her hand to touch his frowning brow, and said with concern, "The emperor is not in good spirits, but he didn't rest just now, okay?"

"It's okay. It's normal to have poor sleep recently. Maybe it's because of the hot weather." The emperor also raised his hand to press his forehead, which was slightly uncomfortable, and said indifferently.

At this time, Lan Zhen had already brought a bowl of soup and presented it to the emperor respectfully.

The emperor took the soup and looked at the strange maid with suspicion.

"I remember that there was someone named Songzhi next to you. This palace daughter is a bit unfamiliar."

"Fuhui was taking a nap when I came over. Songzhi was the only one who was the most suitable, so he asked her to take care of the ninth brother. So I brought Lan Zhen. The emperor saw her less, so she is also useful. ." Nian Shilan said softly.

"Lan Zhen..." the emperor muttered silently, "you don't care if I stress you a word. Since it is useful, it must be a good thing."

Nian Shilan's eyes flashed slightly and he continued, "The emperor has not been sleeping well recently. Lan Zhen has some skills. The acupuncture technique passed down in the family is the best way to relax the body and mind. In the past, when I couldn't sleep well, I would point at her." To relieve my concubine's worries, why not let Lan Zhen try it."

"Since I am the person you are used to, how can I let you part with me?"

"I have not been feeling unwell recently. Moreover, the emperor's dragon body is more important. The maids are all servants of the royal family. They are my private property."

"Well, that's fine, you are more aware of the general situation now." That's how he left the person behind.

After hearing the expected answer, Nian Shilan didn't wait long, stood up and said, "It's time for Fuhui to wake up, so I will go back first."

"Well, I will go see you mother and son another day. Su Peisheng will bring you here in a sedan chair."

Someone sent Nian Shilan away in a sedan chair, and Nian Shilan resigned.

The moment she stepped out of Jiuzhou Qingyan, Nian Shilan felt some hesitation in her heart. She knew that after taking this step, she and the emperor would no longer have any affection at all, only retribution.

The hesitation was only a moment, and Nian Shilan finally stepped out of Qingyan, Jiuzhou, and looked up at the dazzling sun, feeling infinitely cold in her heart.

The next day, a decree was sent to Qing Yanli in Jiuzhou, and Wei Zhen agreed.

This Jane was extremely favored. Xia Dongchun also heard from Wang Shunyi that since the Emperor accepted this Jane, even though he played and sang every night until late at night, his sleep was indeed much better and his energy was getting better day by day.

After listening to Ji's concubine, in the summer, winter and spring, Concubine Jing and Shen Meizhuang found out that Lan Zhen was the spy in the palace of Qi Guiren back then. Now that they knew that she had the support of Nian Shilan, they thought that when Qi Guiren had a miscarriage and the queen fell, Zhen He promised to help Nian Fei a lot.

Several people did not ponder the purpose of Tounian Shilan's move, but something else happened in the palace.
