The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 2 Memories of Past Life
If an ordinary person found out that he was reborn, even if he was not scared to the point of being speechless, he would definitely try to sort out what had happened in his mind.

After experiencing the thrilling palace fighting in her previous life, Nian Shilan accepted this fact after a brief trance when she woke up.

Although she found it a bit ridiculous, the painful memories from her previous life forced her to calm down quickly.

In her previous life, she was hurt by the emperor's ruthlessness and deception. She thought that the precious spice Huanyixiang given to her by the emperor was a testimony of his love for her in his youth, but she never expected that she would have to sacrifice her whole life, and even the lives of everyone in the Nian family.

In the previous life, his brother and nephew were sentenced to death, and the rest were either exiled or sold.

The exile journey is long and the weather is cold and bitter all year round. How many people can survive?

The Nian family, who once held great power in the court, ended up with a tragic end.

When the king needed the Nian family to fight on the battlefield, the Nian family would go out to fight the enemy without hesitation.

When the king firmly sits on the throne of the world, the Nian family is like a fish on the chopping board, bound to die.

Nian Shilan closed her eyes and fell into the tragic memories of her previous life. Faces flashed through her mind.

There is the Emperor Aisin-Gioro whom she deeply loves, the Empress Ulanara who has a hypocritical heart and a sweet mouth, the Empress Dowager Uya who does not ask about the affairs of the harem but is always paying attention to them, and her "enemies" from her previous life.

What frightened her most was her mortal enemy who had always seemed harmless - Zhen Huan, the daughter of Zhen Yuandao, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.

Songzhi knelt carefully beside the bed and served her, silently paying attention to her lady's every move. When Nian Shilan was lost in her memories, a look of pain unconsciously appeared on her face.

Songzhi has been with Nian Shilan since she was a child. She has never seen her proud daughter worry about anyone or anything, but now she is looking at her daughter with a frown. In Songzhi's eyes, Nian Shilan is always like a blooming rose, with a strong fragrance and rich color, but showing her beauty to the world with thorns all over her body.

Everyone in the Nian family pampers and gives in to their eldest daughter.

In addition to the favor of the head of the family, Nian Xialing, and his wife, Nian Shilan also has two biological elder brothers.

The brothers have each started their own families, and the two sisters-in-law are also obedient to their husbands and do whatever they say, but on the surface they both love this biological sister very much.

Although Nian Shilan had a younger brother and two younger sisters who were born out of wedlock, no one dared to disobey her because of the favor of the head of the family, Nian Xialing. The remaining concubines, maids and other people were even more submissive, fearing that they would displease the eldest lady.

Nian Shilan gently raised her hand and touched her forehead. The pain from her death by hitting her head against the wall in her "dream" and the heartache when she learned the truth from her mortal enemy Zhen Huan seemed to still be there.

When Songzhi saw her raise her hand, she hurried forward to check if there was anything wrong with Nian Shilan's head, but found nothing unusual.

Songzhi sat back on the footstool beside the bed, hesitant to speak, thinking that the young lady didn't seem to hit her head when she fainted in the back garden.

Nian Shilan opened her eyes. She first wanted to determine what time it was. When she hit her head against the wall in her previous life, she was already halfway through her life and was over thirty years old.

And now, looking at Songzhi, who seemed only twelve or thirteen years old, she knew that she was still young too.
