The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 284 is called Xi Yan
Xiao Linzi took out two notebooks from his arms and flattered Nian Shilan.

"Master, please take a look, I went to buy this yesterday.

The latest folk storybook, this time it is not written by those young ladies and scholars.

The master can watch it to relieve his boredom when he has nothing to do. "

Nian Shilan flipped through it curiously and was a little surprised when she saw the contents.

"Where did you get these? Why do they look like the art of war?"

Xiao Linzi scratched his head embarrassedly and chuckled.

"Last time, my master and the emperor had a quarrel and they didn't see each other for a long time. I was very worried.

Fortunately, the emperor is here, my master, hehehehe"

Nian Shilan looked at Xiao Linzi, who had a silly smile on his face, with displeasure.

"Just say it like a fool."

Xiao Linzi came close to Nian Shilan.

"Master, I noticed that you cried in front of the emperor that day.

Just like what was written in the storybook you read a few days ago.

Now that I can read, hehe, I have a good eye for picking storybooks!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Nian Shilan's face, but she pretended to be calm and said.

"You have a good eye. Keep picking out good ones to entertain me in the future."

Nian Shilan thought back to the day when Yinzhen came. She happened to see in the storybook that the young lady's maid gave the young lady advice.

"You have to obey your uncle, all men like obedient women.

Even if you don't like your husband's favoritism towards his concubine, you should show your gentleness on the surface."

Just then, Yinzhen walked in with a gloomy face, looking like he had bad intentions.

Nian Shilan rolled her eyes and imitated the lady in the storybook, sticking close to her without any grudges.

Nian Shilan just wanted to try it out to see if it would work.

But she didn't expect that Yinzhen enjoyed it very much, and they were extremely affectionate that night.

Nian Shilan got up early that day and went to pay her respects to Ulanara, and everyone in the harem expressed her congratulations.

Ulanara smiled gently and said to Nian Shilan.

"Sister Hua Fei has regained the emperor's favor. I am happy for you."

Nian Shilan said leisurely without raising her eyelids.

"I wonder how happy the Queen is?"

Ulanara took a deep breath secretly and continued to smile warmly.

"Of course I am very happy. I was sitting in Jingren Palace. When I heard that my sister and the emperor had reconciled, I thought it was a rumor.

Until I heard that the former head of the Imperial Household Department, Huang Guiquan, was beaten with a stick by the Emperor because he had offended his sister.
After sending her to the Ministry of Punishment, I learned that my sister had indeed regained the emperor's grace.
Seeing my sister getting angry with the emperor, and the emperor, in a rage, stripping my sister of her power to assist in managing the six palaces, I was really worried about her.

But it's okay, my sister can take this opportunity to have a good rest for a while."

Nian Shilan understood the meaning behind Ulanara's words, squinted her eyes, and replied with a smile.

"It is my fault that I have caused the Queen to worry. But you don't have to worry about it now.

The emperor has been with me these days, and I will do my best to make it up to him."

Ulanara said.

"In this way, I will be relieved. Sister Hua Fei, you must know that the emperor is the sky and women are the earth.

Whether in the harem or the front court, the emperor is the biggest.

You must not get angry with the emperor because of a momentary impulse. In the end, you will be the one who suffers."

Nian Shilan picked up the silk handkerchief in her hand, placed it to her lips, coughed lightly, and spoke while pinching her throat.

"Yes~ I remember~ I was a little tired after serving the emperor last night, and today I hurried to pay my respects to the queen.

If the Queen has nothing else to say, I will go back to sleep first." Nian Shilan was about to stand up when Jiang Fuhai came in and reported.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Su is here."

Ulanara asked in confusion.

"Oh? What is Su Peisheng doing here now?"

Noble Lady Fucha rushed to speak.

"Today is the fifteenth day, which should be the day when the Emperor comes to Jingren Palace. In my opinion, the Emperor is anxious to see the Empress, so he asked Su Peisheng to pass on the message?!"

Noble Lady Fucha looked at the smile on Ulanara's face with pride.

Ulanara's tone sounded like a reprimand, but her joy could not be concealed.

"Sister Fucha, please stop making fun of me. Jiang Fuhai, go and ask Eunuch Su to come in."

Ulanara instructed Jiang Fuhai with a smile, and her eyes seemed to pass over Nian Shilan inadvertently, but Nian Shilan still looked nonchalant.

Su Peisheng entered the hall and bowed to Ulanara before speaking.

"Your Highness, the Emperor has just come out of the morning court and asked me to come and inform the six palaces that from today on, Concubine Hua will be restored to assist in the management of the six palaces.

I thought that all the ladies were in Jingren Palace, so I came directly to Jingren Palace. This is the Emperor's order, please let the Empress know. "

Ulanara just smiled and said she understood, then sent Su Peisheng away.

Nian Shilan glanced over and saw that Noble Lady Fucha, who had proudly said the words that Ulanara would like to hear before, was now shrinking her body and trying her best to squeeze herself into the chair like a quail.

Nian Shilan didn't say anything either, just waiting for Ulanara to say something.

Ulanara turned around and said to Nian Shilan.

"Congratulations, sister. I just said,
The emperor was so angry that he stripped his sister of her power to assist in managing the six palaces.

I don’t want to trouble my sister again so soon.”

Nian Shilan stood up and said respectfully.

"I thank the emperor for his grace and the queen. I want to go back and rest first."

An promised that everything was fine and went to Xianfu Palace to visit Zhen Changzai.

Zhen Changzai looked at the embroidery frame in An Da Ying's hand, took it with her good left hand, looked at it carefully, and exclaimed in admiration.

"Sister An's hands are so deft, this flower doesn't even look like it was embroidered, it looks like it's about to bloom.

When my hands are healed, sister, can you teach me how to embroider? I also embroidered a purse for myself to wear."

An agreed and looked at Zhen Changzai, smiling gently.

"If you like it, I'll just embroider it and give it to you. But I don't know what kind of flowers you like?"

A word suddenly popped up in Zhen Chang’s mind - Xiyan.

She had been having a dream recently. In the dream, she only remembered that she liked a certain kind of flower very much. Someone told her in the dream that the flower was called Xiyan.

But she could never see clearly who that person was, and she couldn't see what the flower looked like.

I only remember that in the dream she liked a flower called "Xiyan".

Zhen Changzai tentatively agreed to An.

"Sister An, do you know that there is a flower called Xiyan?"

An agreed and thought about it seriously before replying.

"Sister, you are very knowledgeable. Can you tell me what kind of flower is the evening jasmine? What does it look like?"

Zhen Chang is on the road.

"I don't know either. I only know there is a flower called sunset lily.

I hadn't seen it either, so I wondered if you had seen it.

Apparently, you haven’t heard of it either.”

An agreed with a smile and held up the embroidery frame in front of Zhen Changzai.

"Sister, do you like these lotus flowers that I embroidered?"
