The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 335: Self-Destruction
Ulanara knew that Empress Dowager De was dissatisfied with her and was unwilling to join her in dealing with Nian Shilan.

However, he also knew that Nian Shilan had many grievances with Empress Dowager De before.

Ulanara gritted her teeth.

"I know that the Queen Mother is still angry with me for what happened in the past. But does the Queen Mother know that

I have my own reasons too! I am not unwilling to do what you told me to do before."

Empress Dowager De looked at Ulanara with interest.

"When have I ever told the Queen anything? I have been ill these days and have been confused. I can't remember anything no matter how hard I think about it. Why don't you remind me, Queen?"

Ulanara was speechless and had no choice but to leave.

When Zhile brought the news to Yikun Palace, Nian Shilan looked amused.

"She still thinks the Queen Mother is the same Queen Mother as before. Since the Queen Mother De fell ill, have you seen how many times she has sent people to visit her?

She, a proper daughter-in-law, has done less than this concubine. If she can win the Empress Dowager De's advice,
Do you really think I am crying for the Empress Dowager De? Well, just wait and see what happens."

Nian Shilan thought that since the Empress Dowager had given Empress Dowager De medicine, which made her sick for some time, it was obvious that Ulanara suffered from her youth in this life.

Not as calm and calculated as in the previous life.

Because of the variable of Shilan's rebirth after so many years, Ulanara has not yet realized that many things are not happening as she had planned.

In the harem, the most noble woman is the queen, but the woman with the most power and favor is none other than Nian Shilan!

Speaking of favor, Nian Shilan remembered that she hadn't heard from Concubine Wan for a long time.

"Xiao Linzi, what's going on with Concubine Wan recently?"

Xiao Linzi hurried forward and said.

"My Lord, the medicine for Lady Wan has been supplied on time."

Nian Shilan gave Xiao Linzi a blank look.

"I know, but I didn't ask."

Xiao Linzi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what Nian Shilan was referring to.

"I am stupid! Lady Wan has been reading and practicing calligraphy in Suiyu Pavilion recently. Since there was an epidemic in Yuanmingyuan,
Lady Wan has always been a recluse, and apart from occasionally attending the emperor, I heard that she always stays in her own room."

Nian Shilan asked in confusion.

"She's so honest? What's so unusual about her?"

Xiao Linzi thought for a while and said.

“I also heard that Zhen Chang seems to be chatting up Concubine Wan these days.

But Lady Wan always seems indifferent, so I guess the two of them probably have no private contact."

Songzhi couldn't help but say.

"You little brat, why are you so absent-minded today? You just answer whatever the queen asks.

In the past, you always talked endlessly without waiting for the Queen to ask! Are you hiding something in your heart?"

Xiao Linzi exclaimed "Ah?", which earned him a scrutinizing look from Nian Shilan.

"I was just about to ask you, why are you so distracted? What are you hiding from me?"

But with a plop, Xiao Linzi knelt down and spoke tremblingly.

"I am guilty! I beg my master to forgive me!"

Then, without waiting for Nian Shilan to ask any more questions, Xiao Linzi took out the purse that Fucha Guiren's personal maid Qian'er had sewn for him and told him everything.

"Master, please look, this is the purse that Noble Lady Fucha's personal maid, Qian'er, forced into my pocket!
But this purse is not filled with silver or anything, yes, yes"

Xiao Linzi suddenly blushed. After Nian Shilan was stunned, she guessed something. She suppressed her laughter and asked tentatively, "Does she have feelings for you?"

Xiao Linzi's face instantly turned red to his neck, and he immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"I am the master's servant, how dare I do something that would embarrass my master!
I have already said that I don't want the purse, but Qian'er is very brave!
She stopped me on the long street when I was coming back from the Imperial Household Department!

You force this on me and I run away! I have never seen anything like this before!

I was anxious and angry for a moment, but I didn't dare to chase her or make any noise. I could only watch her run away!

The master knows that if the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace are caught having an affair, it is a capital crime!
How dare I commit such a capital crime!

What's more, she took away the handkerchief I used to wipe my sweat while I was stunned!
"My servant, I am so angry that I am almost dying!"

When Nian Shilan heard that it was Fucha Guiren's maid who forced the purse into Xiao Linzi's pouch and even boldly took away Xiao Linzi's personal belongings, her face instantly became gloomy.

She just sneered.

"Oh, do you want to disintegrate the people around me first, and then accuse me of not managing my subordinates well in front of the emperor?"

Songzhi said hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that Xiao Linzi is not to blame for this?"

Nian Shilan thought that with such a simple trick, Noble Lady Fucha was really desperate, but she didn't know when she would reveal it.

"Why would I blame Xiao Linzi? Who wants him to be a eunuch with such a good-looking face?

This is what attracted others to work on this and think of a solution that would come to his head.”

Nian Shilan said as she looked at Xiao Linzi who was kneeling in front of her.

Xiao Linzi kowtowed repeatedly in anxiety.

"Master, please forgive me! I didn't mean to flirt with her! Master, you don't like my face, so I will destroy it myself! So that you don't have to worry about this!"

As Xiao Linzi said this, he was about to look for a sharp weapon to destroy his appearance, which made Song Zhi scream in panic.

"Miss!"

Nian Shilan sighed helplessly and hit Xiao Linzi's hands with the silk handkerchief in her hand, instantly knocking his raised hands down.

Xiao Linzi looked at Nian Shilan in astonishment. He only knew that his master was an expert in whipping, but he didn't know that Nian Shilan could hit him with such force even if she just picked up a silk handkerchief!
Seeing Xiao Linzi's dazed face, Nian Shilan couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"You're looking for death over a small incident. What use do I have for you? Since you told me the truth, you must believe me in your heart.

I just sighed that you have a good-looking appearance, but you are willing to destroy your appearance.

If this gets out, I will lose all my face because of you! Go! Find Li Ke for me!

I want to see what Noble Lady Fucha is up to! "

After being scolded, Xiao Linzi felt ashamed to face Nian Shilan, so he went away under the pretext of looking for Li Ke.

Xiao Linzi heaved a sigh of relief only after Li Ke took away the purse embroidered with a willow leaf heart and put it in the bag of the eunuch in Fucha Guiren's palace.

To do such a thing, you have to ask your master to do it.

Besides, my master didn't blame me, and that was the most important thing.

Li Ke came back after finishing his work, took out an orange the size of a fist from his arms and threw it to Xiao Linzi.

"Here, eat an orange to calm your nerves. You look so useless. I don't know why that blind palace girl would fall in love with you! Just because you are pale?"

Xiao Linzi was already uncomfortable about this matter, and now when he heard Li Ke laughing at him, he immediately withdrew his gratitude and admiration for Li Ke, and became indignant, holding the orange in his hand.

Li Ke took out another orange, peeled it, stuffed his mouth with it, and said with a smile.

"This orange is so sweet. Come on, I'll take you to see a good show!"
