The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 151 Concubine Hua
Yinzhen came at lunch time. Su Peisheng had already informed Nian Shilan in advance that the master would have lunch in Cheng'en Garden today.

Yinzhen gently stirred the Tremella soup in the small bowl in front of him with a spoon, seemingly thinking about something.

Nian Shilan was eating Song Zhibu's dish in her bowl. Yinzhen looked at her and said.

"Tomorrow I will accompany my wife back to her mother's home to give her gifts. The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon."

Nian Shilan swallowed the food in her mouth, gently wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and then spoke.

"I congratulate the prince and his wife on their harmonious relationship and long-lasting love."

Yinzhen looked at Nian Shilan for a while and suddenly laughed.

"Eat first."

After the two of them finished their meal, Yinzhen walked out of the house, suddenly turned around and leaned over to whisper in Nian Shilan's ear.

"The Emperor fell seriously ill when he returned from Jiangnan, the Crown Prince was deposed, and my good elder brother, the Prince of Zhi, will be back soon. I have asked your brother to go out of the city to "welcome" him. Shilan, just rest assured."

After saying this, he left without waiting for Nian Shilan to react.

Nian Shilan's heart was pounding, she understood Yinzhen's hint.

In this life, Yinzhen was indeed more powerful than she thought, and he had reached this point quietly.

Fortunately, I was reborn and did not act rashly to stop him from seizing the throne.

It was only because of Concubine De's planning in his previous life that Yinzhen was able to sit on the throne of the emperor. In this life, Concubine De did not seem like such a scheming woman.

What is going on here?
Feng gave birth in early June. She was in excruciating pain in the delivery room in Cheng'en Garden that Nian Shilan had already prepared.

The midwife who delivered the baby was invited from outside half a month earlier by Nian Shilan at the request of Yinzhen.

On the day of delivery, no one was allowed to enter Cheng'en Garden. Xiao Linzi stared at the door, not even a fly could dream of flying over.

It was a hot day, and Nian Shilan sat on a rattan chair under the corridor and waited quietly. Ulanara was also locked outside the yard.

Yinzhen had not returned home for seven days, and all the people he sent out had no response. Ulanara had already closed the door of the mansion and did not allow anyone to enter or leave. At this critical juncture, Feng took action.

Feng was in pain for a long time, she felt it was as long as ten years, she was in so much pain that she was almost out of strength, finally the midwife shouted.

"Pull harder! I can see the end! Hold on, Princess!"

By the time the child was born, Feng had exhausted all her strength. She half opened her eyes, trying hard to see the child in the midwife's hands.

"Congratulations, Princess! It's a little princess!"

Nian Shilan listened to the good news from the maid kneeling in front of her, and her heart finally settled down.

But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a loud knock on the door of Cheng'en Garden.

"Reporting to Concubine Hua! The emperor has given an oral order! Please come out and receive it!"

Nian Shilan's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly stood up and tightly grasped the dagger in her sleeve.

That was the dagger that Yinzhen had given her. It was short and powerful, just right for a woman to hide in her sleeve for self-defense.

Xiao Linzi looked at Nian Shilan nervously. Nian Shilan took a deep breath and nodded slightly. Xiao Linzi slowly opened the door of Cheng'en Garden.

The person standing outside was not Liang Jiugong, the senior eunuch beside the emperor, but a junior eunuch beside Yinzhen. It was he who had called for the door just now.

Next to the young eunuch was Yinzhen's personal eunuch Su Peisheng.

Ulanara and her concubines were already kneeling outside Cheng'en Garden. Nian Shilan calmed herself down, walked out, and knelt beside Ulanara.

Su Peisheng said slowly.

"The previous emperor passed away, and the throne was passed to the fourth prince, Prince Yong. The new emperor is heartbroken, but everything is yet to be determined. All the old people in the palace will enter the palace today, and wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne and perform the ceremony of conferring titles on the six palaces!"

Ulanara folded her hands, raised them above her head, prostrated herself on the ground, and spoke loudly.

"Your servants obey my command."

Su Peisheng quickly stretched out his hands to help Ulanara stand up, and said happily. "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Please pack up quickly and go to the palace first. The emperor is waiting in the palace. My lady, the emperor said that you can wait a day or two before entering the palace. The Imperial Observatory has chosen an auspicious day, and we are just waiting for the emperor to ascend the throne above all the people!"

Ulanara turned around, looked at the concubines behind her, and said.

"Sisters, please pack your things. I will send someone to take you to the palace tomorrow."

At this moment, Ulanara was so shocked by the fact that Yinzhen became the emperor that she just wanted to go to the palace to see him as soon as possible. She didn't care at all that Nian Shilan blocked her outside Cheng'en Garden.

Nian Shilan breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to Cheng'en Garden.

Qi Yuebin looked at her figure, thoughtfully.

Concubine Hua was not surprised at all.

Nian Shilan held the baby that had been washed clean by the midwife. She closed her eyes, moved her little mouth, and unconsciously her heart turned into a pool of soft water.

"You are a blessed person. Your father is the emperor, and you are his first princess."

Nian Shilan murmured to herself. Feng looked at the child in her arms worriedly but did not dare to say anything.

Feng knew in her heart that without Nian Shilan's protection, she would not have been able to give birth to the child so smoothly.

Just look at what happened to the Duan family.

After giving birth to the princess, Feng had a long dream.

In the dream, Nian Shilan always treated her coldly and tortured her with all kinds of trivial things. Nian Shilan obviously didn't like poetry and books, but in the dream, she was asked to grind ink constantly, which made her hands rough and calloused. There were also various tortures that made it impossible to see the scars.

In the dream, Feng was not pregnant, and she was so angry that her teeth were itching.

When I woke up, I saw Nian Shilan holding her child in her arms. She was so small and soft.

Mrs. Feng was in a trance for a long time, until Nian Shilan smiled and placed the child beside her.

"Look at your daughter. From now on, you are also a mother."

Feng hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"I am of low status and I am afraid I cannot raise this child myself. I am worried."

Nian Shilan said lazily.

"What do you have to worry about? The master has become the emperor, and you are no longer a half-slave and half-master. When the six palaces are conferred titles, I will ask the emperor for you, and you won't have to send the princess to the prince's residence. It is better for the child to be raised by her mother."

Feng's eyes widened. She couldn't believe that by the time she gave birth to a child, the world outside had turned upside down!

Nian Shilan called the wet nurses over and asked them to take good care of the princess and Feng. She then leisurely returned to her room and told the servants to pack up her things.

On the fifth day of June, Nian Shilan entered the palace with the concubines. The coronation ceremony and the ceremony of enthroning the harem were held on the same day.

Yinzhen thought for a long time and decided to confer the title of Empress Yixiu on Ulanara and let her move into Jingren Palace.

Concubine Hua was named Concubine Hua, and Concubine Qi was named Concubine Duan.

Feng Gege had just given birth to a princess, and was canonized as Jing Guiren, Shu Gege was canonized as Shu Guiren, and Li Gege was canonized as Li Guiren.

Cao Qinmo and Nian Zhilan were concubines when they were in the palace, so naturally their positions in the palace would not be very high. They were given the titles of Cao Changzai and Yu Changzai.

In order to make Nian Zhilan avoid the name of Nian Shilan, Yinzhen specially gave Nian Zhilan the title of Yu.

When Nian Zhilan heard this, she was overjoyed. It turned out that the emperor still had her in his heart.

Yinzhen originally wanted to give Changchun Palace to Nian Shilan to live in, but Nian Shilan asked for Yiku Palace herself, so Yinzhen agreed to her request.

Nian Shilan sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror.

Empress Hua is finally back.

　Entering the palace, entering the palace, I won’t write about the affairs of the palace anymore, all the accounts will be settled in the palace
