Forbidden Autumn, Summer, Winter and Spring Rebirth

Chapter 69 66. Concubine Hatred
  "Huan'er, listen to me. I have already thought about it. Even if you are punished for this matter this time, you should not take risks for me. Our emperor seems to be affectionate, but in fact he is ruthless. His sacred heart is unpredictable. If If you are implicated because of me, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep peacefully for the rest of my life." Shen Meizhuang said decisively.

"But sister, is it worth it? I know that sister must have thought of the consequences before she acted, but she still went. You are soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Huan'er should have thought of it a long time ago. How could Huan'er let her sister be punished alone..." Zhen Huanhong His eyes were filled with tears, and he said with a slight cry.

"Huan'er, if you don't listen to me and still want to interfere in this matter, don't blame me for ignoring sisterhood." Shen Meizhuang interrupted Zhen Huan sharply.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Zhen Huan was stunned.

"Keep your grace and glory, and I will have a chance to stand up again. If not, you and I, sisters, will have no choice but to be slaughtered in this palace."

Zhen Huan was silent, she knew that this matter was the most obscure rebellion in the emperor's heart, and Shen Meizhuang would definitely not be able to deal with it alone this time.

When the emperor entered the Yikun Palace, only Songzhi greeted him outside the side hall.

After waving his hand and asking all the servants to stay outside the palace, the emperor stepped into the palace alone.

The side hall with closed doors and windows was also dim during the day. The emperor vaguely saw a figure, bowing to him in the backlight.

"My concubine, Nian, please see your Majesty."

The emperor walked slowly to the main seat and sat down, looking at Nian Shilan who was not applying makeup.

"Sit down." The emperor said.

Nian Shilan sat down as he was told.

Both of them were silent for a long time, and finally Nian Shilan spoke first.

"Your Majesty...are you disappointed with me?" Nian Shilan asked softly.

"I knew that you were arrogant and domineering, but I didn't know that you had done so many unjust things. I punished you by taking away your position and confining you to Yikun Palace to think about your mistakes. It was because I wanted to serve you in the palace for a long time and opened my eyes. "The emperor said slowly.

"I would like to thank you for your forgiveness. I know that my evil deeds are obvious, and it is difficult to convince the public with this kind of treatment. However, no one knows me better than the emperor. Many of these conspiracies and tricks were made by the Cao family from the side, and I was instigated by him." . I deserve what I have today, and so does my mother's family. I just hope that the emperor will not get angry because of this." Nian Shilan finally shed tears when she looked at the emperor's indifferent expression.

The emperor looked silently at Nian Shilan, who was crying silently in front of him. He finally felt a little soft-hearted. He stood up and slowly walked towards her. He raised his hand to wipe away her tears. He softened his voice and said, "If you want to see me, why bother yourself? Write Written in blood. Think about your mistakes and change your ways. I will summon you when I have calmed down."

"Your Majesty, I have no choice but to use this method to ask for permission. It's because I have some doubts in my heart, which I have been suppressing for many years. I want to ask the Emperor to clarify my doubts." Nian Shilan stood up and looked straight into the eyes of Emperor Gujing Wubo.

Touching the panic and expectation in her eyes, the emperor seemed to have noticed something.

"There is no need to talk about the past." The emperor said impatiently, shaking off the beads on his hand.

"Aren't the past things important?" Nian Shilan asked with infinite sadness.

The emperor was speechless.

"Your Majesty, now that I have nothing left, please tell me the truth. What is the truth about the child that I lost? Is it really Concubine Duan who murdered my mother and son, or is she the Queen? Or... Your Majesty?" Nian Shilan looked at the man sadly, eager to get an accurate answer. "Presumptuous! Are you questioning me?" the emperor scolded. Staring straight at Nian Shilan, the coldness in his eyes seemed to overflow, and it seemed that the entire hall was getting colder.

"That's my concubine's child. Although I only had a mother-child relationship with him for three months, it's still my own flesh and blood. Your Majesty, don't I even have the right to know the truth?" Nian Shilan choked.

"Concubine Duan... is innocent." The emperor closed his eyes helplessly and replied in a hoarse voice.

"Innocent?" Nian Shilan asked in disbelief: "So for so many years, I have hated the wrong person and avenged the wrong person? Innocent... hum... hahaha." Nian Shilan said with a bitter smile.

Songzhi, who was worried outside the palace, couldn't hold it in any longer and pretended to bring tea and pushed the door in. However, seeing Nian Shilan in such pain, he quickly put down the tea and stepped forward to help her, who was shaking.

"Since you already know the truth, why do you need to ask me again?" The impatience in the emperor's eyes became more and more obvious.

"I don't want to give up. I just want to believe in the emperor. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..." Nian Shilan shook his head unconsciously, with tears like broken beads.

"What about Huanyixiang? The emperor gave me the Huanyixiang for my exclusive use..." Nian Shilan's eyes were still filled with a little light, and she looked at the emperor with a little expectation.

The emperor remained silent, closed his eyes with a cold face, and acquiesced.

"You know it all." Not a question, but a statement.

When Nian Shilan heard this, her whole body became as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She didn't close her eyes all night, and the slightly sarcastic words of Shen Meizhuang were turning over and over in her mind. She didn't believe it, and she didn't dare to believe that her husband, the person she had admired and relied on for many years, was actually the originator of her pain and torture for more than ten years.

From the day they got married, they were the favorite of the special family, honored and honored, rubbed their ears and temples together, and made a promise to hold hands, just to take advantage of her mother's clan. Then when she was pregnant, she became ruthless, plotted, talked sweetly, and favored and killed her, destroying her child and ruining her body step by step, so that she could never get pregnant.

And she was Shilan, and from the day she married him, she just wanted to be with him, to grow old together hand in hand, to take his worries as her own worries, and take his happiness as her own happiness. Even though he kept getting new favorites around him and showed mercy at every turn, she still waited eagerly in Yikun Palace every night. Even if he favored her every day, she was still willing to wait in this empty and lonely palace.

How she wanted to have a child with her husband. This child, with the blood of her and her beloved, looked like him and her, so she begged famous doctors all over the world, drank bitter medicine all over the world, and cried all night to no avail.

Unexpectedly, in the end, it was her husband who cut off her thoughts in this life.

The love and time spent over the years were all in vain.

"In the past ten years or so, has your Majesty ever been sincere towards me? Has there ever been a moment when I felt sorry for you as much as I care about you? And has there ever been a moment when you missed me so much? That child, the child who was killed by the emperor himself?" Nian Shilan came back to his senses for a long time, stroking his heart, complaining with tears, and almost roared in the end.

"Do you know what you are talking about?" The emperor angrily threw the beads in his hand at Nian Shilan's feet.

"I am the king, and the Nian family is the minister. Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness. Nian, you have overstepped your bounds." The emperor shouted angrily.

Seeing that the emperor was already angry, Songzhi knelt down and kowtowed, asking the emperor to forgive him.
