The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 474 Yinzhen's Joke
Yinzhen took the teacup and paused, looking at the tea leaves floating in his cup, and said.

"The queen is just the queen."

Nian Shilan continued to play dumb.

"I don't understand what you mean. The Queen is the Empress, the mother of the Qing Dynasty.
She is the emperor's wife and also an example and role model for everyone in the harem.

How come the emperor only refers to her as the queen?"

Yinzhen reached out to put down the teacup, and Su Peisheng immediately took it with both hands.

"I once had a wife, and the queen is my successor.

In my heart, I have never considered her as my wife.

Although you are my concubine, in my heart, from the moment I asked to marry you,
It means that I consciously take on the responsibility of a husband. Do you understand?"

Nian Shilan blinked, her clear eyes revealing deep confusion, and she muttered in a low voice.

"I don't quite understand what the emperor said."

Yinzhen looked at her like this, laughed and shook his head.

"If you don't understand, then you don't understand. You don't like to work hard on writing. I'll just treat it as playing the lute to a cow."

Who would have thought that as soon as this sentence came out, Nian Shilan was like a cat with its fur standing on end, and her eyes, which were confused just now, widened into a big circle.

"Your Majesty, are you comparing me to a cow?! In your eyes, am I so stupid?!"

Nian Shilan's sudden feeling of grievance scared Yinzhen.

He realized that he might have gone too far in joking, but he was the emperor, and even if he was wrong, the man should admit it.

So he went from being unable to hold back his laughter at the beginning to suddenly becoming a little angry at Nian Shilan's foolish understanding, and his voice became cold.

"Nonsense. When did I ever call you stupid? I was just joking with you.

Since you don’t like it, I won’t joke with you anymore.”

Listening to his stiff tone, Nian Shilan thought that whether in the previous life or this life, the women around Yinzhen all believed that "thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor", so there has never been a woman around him who disobeyed them.

In his previous life, he was also extremely afraid of him getting angry, but in this life, whenever Nian Shilan provoked him, he just felt happy in his heart.

It was clear that Ming Shilan didn't care about Yinzhen's coldness at the moment, but she thought for a moment and squeezed out a few tears, her eyes turned red, and her voice was choked with sobs that made people soften.

"The Emperor just told me to call you by another name.

But now you despise me for being stupid and treat me coldly.

I only regret that I am pregnant at this time and cannot serve the emperor.

I think the Emperor is also dissatisfied with me, so he reprimanded me."

Yinzhen was stunned. He thought that with his cold tone, Nian Shilan should have understood his feelings and admitted her mistake in turn.

However, he didn't expect that Nian Shilan felt aggrieved instead. He thought of the fact that Nian Shilan was still pregnant but was trying hard to hold back her tears, and he couldn't help but sigh, his heart softened, and he looked at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Yinzhen had never seen any woman act like this in front of him. Even when Yunxi was around, she looked at his expression.

If Yinzhen looked unhappy when he returned home one day, Yunxi would try her best to make him happy.

Even if Yinzhen was busy and ignored Yunxi for a few days, she would never hold it against him, let alone argue with him out of grievance.

But Nian Shilan was different. Except for the first time they met, Yinzhen vaguely felt that for a moment she was very much like Yunxi's little temper. Otherwise, Nian Shilan was just Nian Shilan.

"Okay, okay. It's my fault for scaring you just now.

But I really don't mean to say you are stupid. You are as smart as a little fox, how can I bear to scold you? Don't cry.

If the dragon fetus in your belly senses your sadness, it will also be sad."

Yinzhen softened his tone and took Nian Shilan's slender hand.

Nian Shilan was still crying, and Yinzhen took the handkerchief from her hand to wipe her tears.

Only Su Peisheng was confused. What was going on? He had been with Yinzhen for so many years, but this was the first time he heard him admit his fault.

Concubine Hua is still so powerful~ Su Peisheng sighed in his heart.

That night, Nian Shilan did not keep Yinzhen, but just said that she had been crying and had a headache, and wanted to rest early.

Yinzhen, who was standing at the door of Qingliang Palace, touched his head, turned around and looked at Nian Shilan's main hall with the lights turned off, and said self-deprecatingly.

"Su Peisheng, see? This is the first time I've been kicked out by my own woman. It's interesting."

Su Peisheng laughed and bent his waist.

"Look, this is Concubine Hua, she cares about you so much.

I am a eunuch,
But I also know that if there is no one in my heart, it is because of what that person did.
The other party will not be affected at all. Your Majesty, do you think this is the case? "

Yinzhen suddenly realized that Nian Shilan cared about him too much. Well, then he felt relieved.

She always seemed so casual before, and I thought she didn't have him in her heart.

Forget it, it’s getting late, just go back to Jiuzhou and have a rest.

After seeing Yinzhen off, Nian Shilan ordered people to turn off the lights, but she did not sleep.

After waiting for Xiao Linzi to come in and report that the emperor had gone back to Jiuzhou Qingyan on his own, Nian Shilan ordered people to light the lights in the bedroom again.

"Get some water and wash yourself. Now you can rest."

Song Zhi said.

"Your Highness just said that to the Emperor, and I was so scared. Everyone said,
Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. I am afraid that your majesty will make the emperor angry.
From now on, the emperor will never come to your place again. What should I do then? "

Nian Shilan wiped her hands nonchalantly, and asked someone to bring a jade wheel for her face, and she casually used it to massage her face.

"What are you afraid of? Your Majesty has seen many obedient beauties, but he may not have seen someone like me.

Besides, if he is angry, let him be angry. I can have peace and quiet. He won’t bother me every day.”

Songzhi opened her mouth, but she knew that her master was telling the truth.

Nian Shilan always felt that Yinzhen came too often and made her irritated, but Songzhi didn't understand. Everyone in the palace was looking forward to the emperor's favor, but none of them could expect the emperor to visit them a few times.

On the contrary, the emperor knew very well that his master sometimes disliked his frequent visits, but he seemed unaware of it and came even more frequently.

Songzhi couldn't understand the logic behind this.

The jade wheel is warm and feels very comfortable when rolled on the face. When Nian Shilan has nothing to do, she uses the jade wheel to maintain her face. As a result, her facial contours have always remained very beautiful, with round lines and a clear jaw.

Nian Shilan half-closed her eyes, rolled her jade wheels, and when she saw Songzhi's expression, she suddenly laughed.

"Look at your face, you're becoming more and more old-fashioned.

You don't understand men's minds, but you have to remember,
The more he can't get it, the more he will keep thinking about it.

When you find a good husband and get married,
You should also remember it firmly. You can serve him comfortably.

But don't let him win your heart.
You won't cry for him, understand?"
