Chapter 116: Conspiring with Hua (Part )
"The Emperor is really so heartless. All these years of friendship have been wasted. That's his child too!"
"Brother has never had any rebellious intentions, Your Majesty."
"Concubine Duan, Concubine Duan...I have hated the wrong person for so many years..."
Nian Shilan roared in pain, but still rationally lowered her voice.
He looked crazy, but also strangely calm.
Seeing Nian Shilan like this, Huimin nodded in her heart and became a little more sober.
He also responded silently to Nian Shilan in his heart - of course, the emperor only cares about his throne, and everything else has to stand aside. Love is also a sacrifice in front of the throne.
But Huimin did say:
"General Nian loves the queen the most. He must have guessed this when he allowed the doctor from Qinghai to enter the palace. The general is so powerful and influential that the emperor is inevitably wary of him."
"The doctor told the queen in the palace that there was nothing wrong with her health. I'm afraid she was controlled by the queen mother and the emperor. But after returning to Qinghai, the general might have already known the truth."
"The general is not a tactful person. He feels bad for his sister, but he can't help showing it on his face. This makes him look arrogant. I'm afraid the emperor has been dissatisfied for a long time."
"The general noticed something, so he and Prince Dun... This is to make two preparations. General Nian is also hesitant, but the queen is in the harem and loves the emperor deeply, so the general has some reservations, so... The general really loves the queen."
Huimin intended to make Nian Shilan care more about her brother, so that in the choice between Nian Gengyao and the Nian family, the emperor would become worthless.
As expected, Nian Shilan was shocked one after another, and her expression was dazed. The cause of her child's death, the secret of her infertility for many years, her brother's situation, and the emperor's cruelty...
Seeing Nian Shilan's reaction, Huimin knew that she had almost done all the groundwork.
"Why are you telling me this?"
There was a big hole in Nian Shilan's heart, but her mind became clear again.
Her love for the emperor was suppressed by Nian Shilan, and her sense of responsibility as the daughter of the Nian family surged in her heart.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Except the Queen!"
Besides the Queen? Hua Fei's eyes became serious.
"She is now imprisoned in Jingren Palace. What's there to worry about?"
Huimin looked at Nian Shilan and sighed in her heart. She only knew how to rush around recklessly and her vision was not far-sighted enough.
"The queen is imprisoned, but as long as the queen mother is still here, she has a chance to get out. Our queen is too vicious, so we have to be on guard."
"But," Nian Shilan frowned, "What can you do? You still can't depose the queen despite all the crimes. What can I do?"
"Can I break into Jingren Palace and kill her?"
Looking at Nian Shilan, Huimin felt helpless.
"Of course, we can't let the queen take such a risk."
"There were other reasons why the queen couldn't be deposed before, but that's not necessarily the case now. The queen is under house arrest, but she's not banned from leaving the palace forever."
"I have some great news here, I think Your Majesty will be interested."
Facing Nian Shilan's puzzled look, Huimin leaned close to her and whispered something.
"what?"
Looking at Nian Shilan's incredulous expression, Huimin nodded.
"Empress Chunyuan... Ulanara clan, the Empress is completely finished."
"The Queen Mother also indulged her to this extent?"
Nian Shilan looked at Huimin with complicated eyes, "You are not simple to get this information..."
"There are talented people from generation to generation."
"Forget it. From now on, the harem will be yours. I won't be able to see it anymore."
Huimin smiled and said:
"How can it be our world? Isn't it also the Majesty's world? Since the Majesty has helped me this time, Huimin will naturally not abandon the Majesty."
"Although your majesty has been demoted this time, you have not been sent to the cold palace, nor have you been sentenced to death. As long as you have a green mountain, you will not have to worry about lack of firewood. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, your majesty must not lose heart."
"Once this is done, Huimin will naturally ask Father to help the Nian family's children. When the emperor's anger subsides a little, he may be gracious enough to allow them to return to the capital in two years."
"As for the female members of the Nian family, they will also be taken care of by the family, so that the queen won't have to worry."
After hearing Huimin's conditions, Nian Shilan fell silent.
After a moment, Nian Shilan looked at Huimin with her gray eyes, as if she wanted to peel off Huimin's skin and take a peek inside.
"Can you do everything you say?"
Her eyes were no longer bright, but looked like blue-gray stagnant water.
Huimin also looked at Nian Shilan seriously, "Of course, your Majesty also knows what kind of person I am. The purpose of doing a deal is to satisfy both parties."
"A promise worth a thousand gold."
Nian Shilan readily agreed, "Remember what you said today."
"I will do whatever you ask me to do."
But Nian Shilan also had some concerns.
"But the Queen Mother may not do as you wish."
Huimin laughed:
"You don't have to worry about this, ma'am."
"It seems that the queen is doomed. The queen mother is only protecting her so that the woman of the Ulanara clan can occupy the position of queen. But the queen has been in trouble one after another, and the queen mother has to take the emperor's dissatisfaction into consideration."
"It just so happens that a new bride is about to enter the palace. Wouldn't it be good for Ulanara to send in another young and beautiful one? She can also please the emperor, but it is better to use the queen, who is a discarded child."
"The Ulanara clan doesn't have a prince yet."
Protecting the Queen is just a matter of weighing the pros and cons. The Queen Mother will figure it out.
Nian Shilan looked at the woman in front of him and felt complicated.
"Xian Fei, the queen and I have both been defeated, but with you here, I'm sure the harem will not be peaceful."
Huimin said:
"My queen, Huimin likes peaceful days the most. Peaceful days are the real life."
That night, Huimin talked with Nian Shilan for a long time, laying out the overall situation and waiting for the right time.
It was already late at night when Huimin left Yiku Palace. The dew was heavy and she returned home under the stars.
Only after Huimin sneaked into Chuxiu Palace did she change her clothes.
The whole person was very tired. Confronting Nian Shilan was not an easy task.
Although Nian Shilan is down and out, it is not easy to convince her, as she has her own pride.
Only a few confidants knew about this trip, and they were all very worried about Huimin.
Seeing his wife coming back, Shunxin quickly went forward to massage Huimin's acupoints to relax her.
Huimin gave her a look, but before she could speak, Ruyi immediately said:
"My lady, the little prince is sleeping soundly, don't worry."
Huimin nodded and closed her eyes to rest.
"Is it possible that no one noticed me being out for a while?"
"No one noticed. Our secret agents were very careful. No one knew except our own people."
"it is good."
Huimin stopped talking and just thought about the next plan in her mind.
"Cao Qinmo exposed Nian Shilan's crimes, and was given the title of concubine and the title of Xiang. She has finally become a "Queen". I have to see her tomorrow."
"Zhen Huan has done a great job in helping the emperor to celebrate the New Year. I don't know when she will be made a concubine."
Huimin thought slowly, there were several daughters of meritorious officials who would enter the palace.
The emperor has not confirmed the list yet, so it is not certain whether there will be any changes in the drama...
Huimin rubbed her brows heavily. The road ahead is long and arduous, and these people are not easy to deal with.
