The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 427 Taking Hongli Away
Nian Shilan thought, she couldn't hold back so soon. Compared with the Empress Dowager De in the previous life, she was really a world of difference.

"Please calm down, Empress Dowager. The Fourth Prince is still young. You can take him back to Yonghe Palace.

I'm afraid it will disturb your peace.
Should we send him back to Yikun Palace first? As for me, I am willing to accept the punishment."

Nian Shilan knelt down, her tone somewhat anxious, and this was exactly the scene that Empress Dowager De wanted to see.

It seems that if you want to control Nian Shilan, you have to keep the Fourth Prince in your hands.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager De felt a little proud.

"Concubine Hua said so much, it's nothing more than worrying about me! But today I won't listen to you,

I don’t know what my grandson the emperor will become if he follows Concubine Hua.

Besides, it is only natural for me to spend more time with the Fourth Prince.

Concubine Hua, please kneel here and reflect on yourself. I am tired, so I will take the Fourth Prince back to the palace first.

Xiao Shunzi, you stay here and watch Concubine Hua reflect on herself."

After saying this, without waiting for Nian Shilan to refute, she directly asked the palace maid beside her to carry the Fourth Prince away.

As soon as the Fourth Prince left Nian Shilan's side, he started crying, but Empress Dowager De's people were quick and carried the Fourth Prince a few steps away from Nian Shilan's sight.

Xiao Linzi followed Nian Shilan and knelt in the imperial garden, watching the Fourth Prince crying and being carried away by Empress Dowager De's men.

He was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.

Xiao Shunzi watched Empress Dowager De walk away and sighed secretly. If he had to look after her by himself, wouldn't that be the end of him?
So even though he clearly saw Songzhi quietly retreating, he pretended not to know.

Songzhi left the Imperial Garden and ran all the way to the Yangxin Palace to seek help.

Nian Shilan knelt calmly as Empress Dowager De took the Fourth Prince away in public. No matter how stupid she was, she would not dare to harm the Fourth Prince at this time.

Moreover, Nian Shilan saw clearly just now that Zhile, the former little palace maid, was now a first-class palace maid beside Empress Dowager De.

When she followed Queen Dowager De away, her eyes met Nian Shilan's and she nodded slightly.

In Yonghe Palace, the Fourth Prince, who had been crying all the way, saw that crying was not working, so he quietly stopped crying and began to observe the people in Yonghe Palace.

Empress Dowager De, who claimed that she was tired, became much more energetic once she returned to Yonghe Palace.

Zhu Xi brought the Fourth Prince to Empress Dowager De and said.

"Empress Dowager, the Fourth Prince is too young. He has just been separated from his mother. I am afraid he will be frightened."

Empress Dowager De looked at the Fourth Prince carefully. His eyes were black and white, and his gaze was bright and vivid, just like his annoying mother.

"Do you mean that I should send him back now?"

Bamboo breath road.

"I dare not, I am just worried. I am sorry for saying so. Actually, you didn't have to bring the Fourth Prince back today.

Concubine Hua has a perverse personality and is vindictive. I am afraid she will harm you in the future."

Empress Dowager De snorted coldly, lifted the Fourth Prince's chin with her sharp nails, and her eyes were filled with unspeakable hatred.

"Would I be afraid of her? I am just worried that I have no excuse to subdue her once and for all.

Look at this kid, how good he is at giving birth. His eyes are like his mother's, and his nose and mouth are like his mother's.

But they are like the son I couldn't raise. They are both the fourth child.

No matter how you look at it, it's annoying!"

As Empress Dowager De was speaking, she flicked the Fourth Prince's chin. Even though the little Fourth Prince was not very good at speaking, he could feel the strong malice towards him from the man in front of him.

The Fourth Prince immediately burst into tears, followed by the sound of the eunuchs outside making announcements.

"The Emperor has arrived~!"

Queen Mother De frowned.

"Why is he here? Didn't I send someone to watch Concubine Hua and forbid her people to inform the public?" Zhu Xi was busy trying to comfort the Fourth Prince while responding to Empress Dowager De.

"Empress Dowager, why don't you lie down? I will say that you are very angry with Concubine Hua."

Zhile, who had been serving tea, stepped forward at the right time and pulled the Fourth Prince into his arms.

"Aunt, please let me come. I have a younger brother at home, and I will comfort the Fourth Prince.

But the Emperor must not notice anything."

Zhuxi nodded and let Zhile hold the Fourth Prince aside to comfort him.

She helped Empress Dowager De lie down on the beauty couch. Empress Dowager De looked so angry that she felt dizzy and had to rest.

Yinzhen strode into the hall, and Zhile had already coaxed the Fourth Prince to stop crying.

Seeing that Empress Dowager De looked weak, Yinzhen suppressed his anxiety and anger and paid his respects to her first.

"Your son greets you, mother. May you be blessed with good health and happiness."

Queen Mother De opened her eyes, frowned and looked distressed, and spoke weakly.

"The Emperor, please get up quickly. Why is the Emperor here at this hour?"

Yinzhen's eyes darkened when he heard Empress Dowager De's tone of voice, which seemed to ask her the wrong question.

"I heard that Shilan upset my mother in the Imperial Garden. I was worried that she was ill, so I came to see if she was okay."

Empress Dowager De still looked very uncomfortable.

"The Emperor is busy with government affairs, I was just chatting and joking with Concubine Hua.
Concubine Hua contradicted me, and I was so angry that I had a headache.

Just rest for a while and take some medicine and you'll be fine.

Such a small matter alarmed the emperor to come here."

Zhile saw that it was almost time, so she pretended to get up to get some tea. The Fourth Prince then broke free from her arms and ran towards Yinzhen in the palace.

"Huang Ama!"

Yinzhen looked at the Fourth Prince who ran out of the inner room. His eyes and nose were red, but he was very happy when he saw him and felt relieved.

Fortunately, when he was thinking about how to ask Empress Dowager De for help, the Fourth Prince ran out on his own.

Su Peisheng reacted very quickly and rushed towards the running Fourth Prince.

"Ouch, Fourth Prince, please slow down! Be careful not to fall!

Your body is so precious, I am scared to death~!"

The Fourth Prince was very familiar with this eunuch who had always been following his father, and he slowed down after hearing Su Peisheng's words.

It was not until he walked up to Yinzhen that he bowed and greeted him politely.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to Emperor Ama."

The greeting in a childish voice made Yinzhen feel soft in his heart.

"Hongli, please stand up. The Emperor is here to take you back."

Yinzhen leaned over and spoke softly to the Fourth Prince.

At this point, he was too lazy to think of any excuse to ask Empress Dowager De for help, he just wanted to take his son and leave quickly.

Empress Dowager De said.

"The emperor is really filial now. My Yonghe Palace is deserted. Concubine Hua sent the fourth prince to accompany me.
Barely half an hour later, the Emperor came to take the Fourth Prince away.

"The emperor can't bear to see me at ease for even a moment?"

Yinzhen turned around and looked into Empress Dowager De's eyes. He felt that he had never understood his biological mother.
