When Su Peisheng heard this, his heart rose to his throat again.

The Emperor had just said that the harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, and Concubine Hua started talking about this without restraint.

Su Peisheng looked nervously at the Fourth Prince in Yinzhen's arms, but the Fourth Prince waved his little hands and held Yinzhen's fingers tightly.

Yinzhen felt the strength of the weak child in his arms and said to Nian Shilan.

"I really don't know the difference. You are Hongli's mother, so whatever you say is fine.

I like your brother Nian Gengyao very much, as he knows when to advance and when to retreat.

I also like Hongli, the son you gave birth to for me.

I hope that Hongli can achieve something with the support of an uncle like Nian Gengyao."

Nian Shilan's heart skipped a beat. She seemed to be a little too proud.

We almost forget that Yinzhen was not only Hongli's father, but most importantly, he was a diligent emperor.

In the previous life, Zhen Huan once said to Shi Lan before her death, "How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside the emperor?"

Nian Shilan's life was so smooth that he almost forgot the meaning of this sentence.

Yes, how can we allow others to sleep soundly beside the king?

What Yinzhen said just now was actually a test.

At present, Nian Gengyao is in great glory and is well versed in the art of keeping a low profile, but would an emperor really easily believe in these superficial things?

Thinking of this, Nian Shilan smiled and reached out to take Hongli from Yinzhen's arms.

"Your Majesty, please don't put any burden on our Hongli.

I just want him to grow up safely.

I don't ask him to achieve great things, I just want him to be a rich and idle person.

As for what the emperor said about my brother, I don’t care about that.

This is the child between me and the emperor, not my brother's.

What do you mean by brother supporting him? Can't our emperor give Hongli money and wealth? "

Yinzhen glanced at Nian Shilan's face inconspicuously, but he only saw the maternal love that unconsciously emanated from her as she smiled and teased the baby in her arms.

Maybe I'm just too suspicious.

But the previous emperor had many sons, and there were also many people who competed with him for the throne.

As Nian Shilan inadvertently said, the throne was hard-earned, and he would not allow anyone to covet it.

Not even his own son.

However, when the conversation between Yinzhen and Nian Shilan in Yikun Palace reached Jingren Palace, Ulanara sneered.

"The Emperor really loves the Fourth Prince. He is only three months old, but he has already thought of asking Nian Gengyao to support him and help him achieve something.

My third prince is almost four years old, and the Emperor has rarely held him in his arms.

After Hua Fei gave birth to a son, the Emperor visited her every day. I really underestimated Hua Fei's position in the Emperor's heart."

Jianqiu looked at the Third Prince who was reciting the Thousand Character Classic by the window. His childish voice came through in a halting manner.

The Third Prince had his hands behind his back, looking like a little adult.

Jianqiu couldn't help but smile, turned around and said to Ulanara.

"Don't be upset, Madam, the Fourth Prince is only three months old, and our Third Prince is almost four years old.

You are the noble queen, and Concubine Hua is just a concubine.

In any case, you don’t have to worry too much.”

Ulanara also looked at the Third Prince who was reciting the text and said.

"How can I not worry? The Third Prince is older, but he is not my legitimate son.

Although he is recorded under my name in the Imperial Edict, his biological mother is disliked by the Emperor.

It will also require me to work harder.

The Fourth Prince has a favored mother, Concubine Hua, so how can we be sure that he will not be honored because of his mother?

Everyone says that in the palace, mothers are honored by their sons. But who knows that if the mother is determined to be honored,

Children can learn better.”

Jianqiu Road.

"Since your majesty has given birth to the Third Prince, he is your own son.

It doesn't matter if Concubine Hua is favored, the Fourth Prince is so young, it's unknown whether he can grow up safely. "

Ulanara's heart moved, but she scolded Jianqiu.

"Nonsense! Can the prince also talk freely?"

Just as Jianqiu was about to beg for mercy, Jiang Fuhai came in and said.

"Your Majesty, Lady Wan requests to see you."

Ulanara said.

"Send it."

Concubine Wan walked into the hall and knelt in greeting.

"Your concubine pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years." Ulanara smiled gently.

"Hurry up and get up. Jianqiu, give Lady Wan a seat."

Concubine Wan thanked him again before sitting down.

Ulanara smiled.

"I just thought that I had acquired some new jewelry inlaid with red gold filigree and kingfisher feathers.
I asked someone to call you over to choose for yourself, but I didn't expect you to come.

You really have a tacit understanding with me."

Lady Wan replied obediently.

"I am deeply grateful for the care of the Queen.

I was thinking that you were busy in the first month of the year.
The concubines were also exempted from the ceremony of paying respects.

I am concerned about your health, Madam Queen.

I came here specially to pay my respects and ask if the Third Prince is well."

Ulanara turned and said to Jianqiu.

"Look at how polite Lady Wan is. Among all the people in the harem, only Lady Wan understands my heart the most.

Go and get out the jewelry I have prepared, and let Lady Wan choose for herself."

Jianqiu was ordered to bring out a rosewood tray, on which were placed several exquisite red gold filigree and kingfisher-inlaid jewelry.

Concubine Wan looked at Jianqiu's hand, stood up and said humbly.

"Thank you very much, Queen, for your kindness. These jewels are too valuable.

I really cannot accept it, please take it back, Your Majesty."

Ulanara raised her hand and motioned for Concubine Wan to sit down.

"Please sit down. No matter how valuable this jewelry is, it is still dead.

It only has value when worn by a person.

I think you are very beautiful, but you always dress simply.

I remember the pearls on your head.
It was a reward given by the Empress Dowager to everyone in the harem during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year.

You silly girl, you are so simple, how can you keep the emperor's heart. "

Jianqiu quietly took the third prince out of the hall and returned to the side hall.

Lady Wan sat down and said.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed to accept your praise. Your Majesty knows that I have never been extravagant since I was young.

Now that I have finally enjoyed wealth and honor, I am already extremely terrified, so please take back these jewels, Your Majesty."

Ulanara ignored Concubine Wan's words and just said.

"This is a reward from me, just take it.

Some days later, when the whole palace was feasting,
You will surely stun everyone when you wear this jewelry.

You are still young, and you deserve more love from the emperor.

Besides, if you don't want to be favored, there are many people in the palace who want to be favored.

I think Concubine Zhen is pretty good."

Concubine Wan knew that it would be bad to refuse again, so she had to thank the emperor and accept it.

Concubine Wan returned to Suiyuxuan and looked at the exquisite and gorgeous jewelry in front of her, with a heavy heart.

Luo Yu asked puzzledly.

"My lady, you got such beautiful jewelry, why do you look so unhappy?"

Concubine Wan said nothing and just sighed.

On the other side, the palace maid Cui Jinxi suddenly said.

"My lady, are you worried that this jewelry is too valuable and will attract the wind?"

Cui Jinxi had only been in Suiyuxuan for more than three months, but because of her diligence and meticulousness, she had already won the favor of Concubine Wan.

Concubine Wan glanced at Cui Jinxi and said.

"You are half right. I am just a humble nobleman, and I am not wearing such expensive jewelry.

Firstly, a big tree attracts the wind, which only causes a lot of unnecessary trouble in the harem.

Secondly, these jewels are exactly the same as those loved by the precious Concubine Hua.

I am more worried about Concubine Hua."

Cui Jinxi thought about it and said cautiously.

"But the Empress gave it to you and specifically asked you to wear it to the palace banquet. I'm afraid you can't deny it."

Lady Wan said.

"We'll talk about it later. Put this thing away first."

But as Lady Wan said, wearing valuables that are not in line with one's status will definitely cause some trouble. (End of this chapter)
