Chapter 123 Desire for profit, Wen Shichu 15
Concubine Hua immediately wanted to take Wen Shichu to the Yangxin Palace and ask the emperor to make the decision for her.
Wen Shichu quickly stopped her, "Empress Hua, Empress Hua, no!"
Concubine Hua glared at him with her sharp eyes, looking at him suspiciously, "What? Are you lying to me about everything you just said?"
Wen Shichu was flexible and walked forward on his knees with a shameless face. "Everything I said is true, and the heaven and earth can bear witness to it. But I still want to live if I have a chance. If I go to the Yangxin Palace and report the Queen Mother and the Empress to the Emperor, I will be dead.
Besides, if Concubine Hua asks the Emperor to make the decision, wouldn't that be embarrassing for the Emperor? "
"Oh?" Concubine Hua stopped and wanted to listen to his detailed explanation. Of course, it was not because she was worried about Wen Shichu's life, but because of what he said about making things difficult for the emperor.
Seeing that Hua Fei was willing to listen to him, Wen Shichu was relieved, "The Queen Mother and the Empress, one is the Emperor's mother, and the other is the Emperor's wife. Both of them are very important to the Emperor." Noticing Hua Fei's dissatisfied eyes, Wen Shichu quickly made up for it, "Of course, Hua Fei, you are also very important to the Emperor, but filial piety comes first. No matter how important you are, the Emperor cannot deal with his own mother for you. If the world knows about this, how can we condemn the Emperor? How can the Emperor convince people?"
Hua Fei felt bitter in her heart, but she also knew that what Wen Shichu said was true, so she felt extremely powerless.
She sat back on the couch dejectedly, muttering, "So I've been victimized for nothing for so many years? And those two bitches got away with it?"
Even if what Wen Shichu said was true, Concubine Hua was still unwilling to accept it. She had always taken revenge, but now she was asked to keep silent, which was so difficult.
Song Zhi, who was standing aside, looked at Concubine Hua worriedly, trying to find a solution for her own queen, and suggested, "Why don't we write a letter and ask General Nian for his opinion?"
Zhou Ninghai also agreed, and first advised his queen to calm down and not act impulsively. "This is a good idea. General Nian will definitely have a good way to help the queen vent her anger."
Hua Fei waved her hand absentmindedly and asked Wen Shichu to leave. What good ideas could her brother have? No matter how much she wanted to vent her anger, she couldn't kill these two men. As long as these two men were alive, she would be angry.
Wen Shichu bowed and stepped back, lowering his head with a hint of a smile.
After he went to Shoukang Palace last time, he found a cleaning eunuch in Shoukang Palace who had received his favor. The eunuch said that only the Empress had come that day, and not long after she left, the Empress Dowager sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to invite Wen Shichu.
In the original drama, it was the Queen who was overthrown by Zhen Huan. Now that Zhen Huan can't get up, the Queen feels that she is in a safe position and even dares to instigate the Queen Mother to punish him.
Haha, then he will make the queen unstable!

Yikun Palace
Concubine Hua was still slumped on the couch, tears streaming down her face. She was extremely sad and cried silently.
She had taken so many medicinal herbs for so many years, and they were so bitter that she wanted to vomit every time.
But for the sake of her child, in order to give birth to a child for her beloved, she forced herself to drink bowl after bowl of medicine. But now she found out that she didn't need to take the medicine at all.
The last person who made Concubine Hua so resentful was Concubine Duan.
Oh, Concubine Duan, who killed her and the emperor's child, a vicious woman who plotted to murder his offspring, was actually named a concubine with a title by the emperor.
Yes, Concubine Duan murdered her and the emperor's child, but the emperor still made her a concubine?
Could it be that the Emperor...
No, it's impossible.
Concubine Hua shook her head. The emperor loved her the most and would not be so cruel. That was her and his child.
The tears on her face kept flowing more and more. At this moment, Hua Fei didn't know whether she was crying for the fact that she had been murdered by the Queen Mother and the Empress for so many years, or for the possible guess in her heart.
She didn't want to, and wasn't willing to discover that in their eyes, she was actually a fool.
In the eyes of the empress dowager, she was a fool. Even though the empress dowager clearly didn't like her, she still sent good things to Shoukang Palace to please her.
In the eyes of the queen, she was also a fool, a fool who was infatuated with the emperor, a fool who only knew how to be arrogant and lose her temper, a fool who had been plotted against by her for many years, and a fool whose means were not as good as hers.
Then in the eyes of the emperor, is she also a fool...

Year Mansion
After Nian Gengyao received the letter, his boiling heart suddenly cooled down.
In his early years, Nian Gengyao was a civil servant. He used his brain, which had not been used for a long time, and suddenly realized that most of his capable soldiers were injured, disabled, demoted, punished, or transferred. Now he was the only one still jumping around in this capital.
After analyzing the situation with his brain, Nian Gengyao broke out in a cold sweat. How could he dare to be so rampant?
After peeling away the fog that was covering his eyes, Nian Gengyao discovered that the emperor had long wanted to cross the river and destroy the bridge.
No, that's not right. They were already demolishing the bridge before they even crossed the river. In the letter, Shilan suddenly mentioned the child who was killed in the palace. Although she didn't say it explicitly, my sister has always been reluctant to recall the pain of the past. I guess this matter is also related to the emperor.
The current emperor was the most mean-spirited and ungrateful person. Nian Gengyao regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He knew clearly that the emperor had tolerated his outrageous behavior for so many years because he had made great military achievements and was afraid of offending him and hurting the feelings of his ministers. The emperor was just waiting for him to go too far and arouse the anger of his ministers. That would be the day when the Nian family would collapse.
Presumably, the Emperor is well aware of the connection between him and Prince Dun.
Nian Gengyao snorted, it was a pity that the Eighth Prince was one game behind, otherwise the current Emperor was still just a prince, how would he dare to treat his sister badly.
Little did they know that it was Nian Gengyao's hesitation between the Eighth Prince and the Emperor, and his betting on both sides, that made the Emperor completely acquiesce in the Queen Mother and the Empress to take action against the child in Nian Shilan's belly.
Every peck and every sip may be predestined; the bearing of orchid fruits must have a reason.
At this point, Nian Gengyao had no choice but to admit defeat.
It's like he is on the battlefield, when the enemy is strong and he is weak, and the enemy is well prepared. He can't use the entire Nian family to fight for a moment's anger.
But even though he admitted his mistake, Nian Gengyao still felt dissatisfied. He had no way to stop the emperor, and he had no way to stop the empress dowager and the queen, who were hiding in the harem. But Ulanara and Uya had enjoyed the convenience brought by the empress dowager and the queen, so they should pay the price for their actions.
