The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 201

Nian Xilan was drinking the soup with her head down, when she suddenly panicked, and suddenly felt a murderous gaze.

Nian Xilan's heart froze, she raised her head and said to Mu Jin: "The apples just now are crispy and sweet but not greasy, which is very to my taste. Bring me two more pieces!"

Hibiscus smiled and nodded in agreement, walked to the banquet table to fetch apple crisps for Nian Xilan, put them in delicate small dishes, and delivered them to Nian Xilan.

On the surface, Nian Xilan seemed to be looking at Hibiscus, and quickly licked her lips. Her clear and moist eyes showed a look full of expectation. To the left, look for the source of the sight that made her panic.

Although Yinzhen had lowered his eyes at this time and couldn't see the look in his eyes clearly, the movement of Yinzhen's right hand unconsciously stroking the moyu finger on the thumb of his left hand made Nian Xilan shudder.

I still remember that in the previous life, although Gengyao helped Yinzhen to win the throne and made great military exploits for Yinzhen, he didn't know how to restrain himself and acted arrogantly, which finally aroused Yinzhen's suspicion.The shrewd Nian Xilan felt something in her heart, and pleaded with Yinzhen more than once for her elder brother Nian Gengyao. Although Yinzhen did not reject Nian Xilan's request face to face because of Nian Xilan's frailty and illness, he always He frowned slightly, showing displeasure on his face, while his right hand was unconsciously stroking the black jade wrench on the thumb of his left hand.

Until her elder brother was convicted and was inexplicably trapped in the Forbidden City after his death, Nian Xilan had been with Yinzhen for a period of time, seeing Yinzhen in many different situations and faces, and then gradually discovered that Yinzhen The movement of the right hand unconsciously stroking Moyu's finger on the thumb of the left hand just showed that Yinzhen had already made a killing intent at that time.

Nian Xilan pretended to be nonchalant, with a generous and decent smile on her face, and continued to deal with the clan princes and Fujin who came to toast Kangxi and her, but she couldn't help guessing Yinzhen's move towards her. The real reason for killing the heart.

Nian Xilan knows that according to common theory, Yinzhen will never want to put her to death because she is worried that she will expose the side hall of Xianfu Palace. Even if Yinzhen's reputation could be ruined if the matter of the side palace broke out, it would cost her own life and the future prospects of her three children.And she has always loved her children more than her life, and it is absolutely impossible for her to do such a deadly thing to deal with Yinzhen.

Nian Xilan, who secretly blamed Yinzhen in this life, shouldn't know about the love-hate entanglement between them in the previous life, let alone harbor resentment because of it, and want to take her life.And the last time she had an unexpected encounter with Yinzhen at Guangji Temple, she never felt any hostility from Yinzhen. Why has Yinzhen's attitude towards her changed drastically after only one month.

The more Nian Xilan thought about it, the more worried she became, and a deep worry couldn't help but surge in her heart.Nian Xilan thought to herself: If Yinzhen could be allowed to take a risk and kill Kangxi's favorite concubine, then this reason hidden in the thick fog that she didn't know must be very important.

Although Nian Xilan's gentle and decent smile can deceive others, Kangxi, who has been paying attention to Nian Xilan's every move, is keenly aware of Nian Xilan's absent-mindedness.

Kangxi did not doubt that he was there, but thought that Nian Xilan was pregnant, and after working hard for half a day, he would naturally feel a little tired, so he turned his head to look at Nian Xilan, and asked with a smile: "Lan'er feels a little tired ? Do you want me to accompany you back to Yikun Palace to rest first?"

Nian Xilan looked at Kangxi in surprise, then blushed, and said with an embarrassed smile: "The emperor's eyes are sharp, and he can see through my concubine's mind at a glance. Fortunately, I thought I was hiding it very well, so I secretly thought to myself I'm proud, but I don't know that my thoughts have been seen clearly by the emperor. Although I am a little tired now, I feel very happy. Last year, I was absent from the Qing Palace on New Year's Eve because I was pregnant with twins and was unwell. The banquet has always been regrettable in my heart, but this year is the first time that I have accompanied the emperor to attend the New Year's Eve palace banquet as a noble concubine. I can accompany the emperor until the banquet is over, and I look forward to being able to watch the new year with the emperor at night!"

Kangxi smiled and said: "Of course I want to watch the new year with Lan'er. It's just that you always go to bed early, I'm afraid you, a sleepy little girl, have already fallen asleep before midnight!"

Nian Xilan's face turned embarrassing, she glanced at Kangxi reproachfully, and retorted softly: "How can I have..." But her voice was like a mosquito, very confident.

That night, Kangxi came to Yikun Palace to watch the new year with Nian Xilan as promised.
