The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Chapter 209 Fang Chunyi makes trouble again

Zhen Huan shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm fine, it's just that the dust is a bit choking."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhen Huan's words. He turned around and saw the curtain of the carriage was gently lifted as the carriage sped past. When Zhen Huan saw the profile of the man in the carriage, her face turned pale instantly.

Nian Shilan naturally noticed that something was wrong with Zhen Huan, but in front of the emperor, she just coughed twice.

Nian Shilan's cough shifted the emperor and Zhen Huan's attention to herself. Nian Shilan said tiredly, "My husband, I'm tired. Can we go back?"

When the emperor heard Nian Shilan say that she was tired, he nodded quickly and said, "Okay, then let's go back to the Summer Palace together."

When the group left, Nian Shilan slowed down her pace, and the emperor asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling a little uncomfortable?"

Nian Shilan shook her head and said, "I am just a little tired, it's okay, my husband, don't worry."

The emperor thought for a moment, picked up Nian Shilan, looked at her lovingly and said, "Hold my neck tightly, I will carry you back to the carriage."

Nian Shilan was suddenly picked up by the emperor. She was a little frightened and reflexively hugged the emperor's neck tightly. After hearing the emperor's words, Nian Shilan buried her head in the emperor's chest with a shy look on her face.

Zhen Huan and Liu Zhu followed behind. Liu Zhu naturally saw what Nian Shi Lan meant. She quietly tugged at Zhen Huan's sleeve and whispered, "Miss, are you okay?"

Zhen Huan's train of thought was interrupted by Liuzhu's words. She looked at Liuzhu in a daze, not hearing clearly what she had just said.

Seeing this, Liuzhu repeated it again, and Zhen Huan slowly shook her head, "Nothing."

After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she suppressed the worry that had just appeared on her face. Thinking that Nian Shilan was still pregnant, she decided to investigate first.

After walking for a while, they saw a carriage parked in the distance. After they got on the carriage, because Nian Shilan said that she was a little tired, they didn't say anything else. The carriage was very quiet for a while, and occasionally they could hear a few words from the emperor expressing his concern for Nian Shilan.

After returning to the Mountain Resort, the emperor once again carried Nian Shilan back to Qingliang Palace, and Zhen Huan also returned to her own Bitong Academy.

Because the emperor did not hide the fact on the way back to Qingliang Palace while holding Nian Shilan in his arms, it didn't take long for all the concubines in the Mountain Resort to know about it. All of a sudden, all kinds of envious and jealous remarks spread throughout the villa.

When Li Changzai heard the news, Chun Changzai was eating snacks in her palace and chatting with Li Changzai.

When Li Changzai heard that the emperor ignored everyone's gaze and carried Nian Shilan back to Qingliang Palace, she said with a sour tone: "Oh, this imperial concubine is getting more and more spoiled now. She even asked the emperor to carry her back to Qingliang Palace. It's so pretentious, as if she has never been pregnant before."

Fang Chunyi was enjoying her meal at this time. When she heard Li Changzai's sour words, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. She said in an innocent tone: "Sister, don't be angry. It's a good thing that the Queen is loved by the Emperor."

When Li Changzai heard Fang Chunyi address Nian Shilan as the Empress Dowager, she suddenly cast her gaze towards Fang Chunyi. Her eyes seemed to be filled with countless knives, and her voice was a little sharp because of her eagerness. She asked, "What did you say? Who said she was the Empress Dowager?"

Fang Chunyi seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at Li Changzai with an evasive look in her eyes and said, "Sister, I was just talking nonsense just now, don't take it seriously."

Li Changzai was not completely stupid. She naturally saw Fang Chunyi's panic. She smiled and stroked Fang Chunyi's hand, saying in a coaxing tone, "Chun'er, be good. Tell me, what do you know?"

Fang Chunyi's big eyes flickered as she looked around. She stopped eating her snacks and quickly covered her mouth with the hand that was not held by Li Changzai, shaking her head.

Li Changzai glanced at the servants in the palace and said calmly, "All of you go down."

When the servants in the palace heard what Li Changzai said, they immediately took orders and retreated without daring to delay.

Li Changzai waited for the servants to leave, then continued to hold Fang Chunyi's fair little hand and said, "Sister, tell me, I will definitely not tell anyone else."

After saying that, Li Changzai lowered her head again, picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes, then slowly said in a crying voice: "Sister, you also know that since I was put in solitary confinement by the emperor last time, I have been out of favor. This time I can come here thanks to the third prince. I am not good at talking, and I have offended the Imperial Concubine in many ways before. If she can really become the queen, I want to take advantage of this time to please her, otherwise I will have no way to survive in the future."

After Li Changzai finished speaking, she covered her face with a handkerchief and began to cry softly.

Fang Chun realized that his goal had been achieved and hurriedly tried to pull Li Changzai's hand, but was pushed away by Li Changzai.

Fang Chunyi could only sigh and said, "Sister, I've told you this, please don't tell anyone, or I'll be in big trouble."

When Li Changyi heard Fang Chunyi's words, he nodded repeatedly to indicate that he would keep his mouth shut.

Fang Chunyi lowered her voice after seeing this, and whispered to Li Changzai: "Sister, didn't you go to Changle Palace a few days ago? Sister heard from the servants of Changle Palace that the Imperial Noble Concubine is pregnant with a prince. The Emperor has promised the Imperial Noble Concubine that when she gives birth to a prince, she will be named the Queen, her son will become the legitimate son, and will also be made the Crown Prince by the Emperor."

When Li Changzai heard Fang Chunyi's words, she tightened her fingers around the handkerchief. Why? The Third Prince was the eldest son of the Emperor's surviving princes. Before Ulanara Yixiu was deposed, she had never had another son. The Emperor had no legitimate son, so Li Changzai always thought that her son would become the Crown Prince. She always asked the Third Prince to work harder on his studies to please the Emperor.

But now, she heard that the Emperor was not going to make the Third Prince the Crown Prince, but instead wanted to make a baby who was not sure whether he could survive after being born. How could Li Changzai possibly accept this?

Fang Chunyi looked at Li Changzai's ferocious expression, feeling a little secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She looked at Li Changzai and said, "Sister?"

Li Changzai came back to her senses, looked at Fang Chunyi's curious face, and forced a smile, "I'm fine. I was just thinking that if the Imperial Concubine became the Queen, I'm worried that my situation in the future would be even more difficult."

Fang Chunyi comforted Li Changzai with a look of heartache on her face.

After Nian Shilan returned to Qingliang Palace, the emperor carefully placed her on the couch and ordered the palace maids to prepare some food.

Nian Shilan leaned in the emperor's arms with a happy look on her face and said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor stroked Nian Shilan's hair gently, "There's no need to thank each other. Lan'er, you're pregnant now, so you must take good care of yourself."
