Songzhi, who had been staying by Nian Shilan's side, cried out in surprise.
"Zi Fujin is awake!"
Yinzhen looked back at Nian Shilan and felt funny when he saw Nian Shilan's innocent eyes open.
This little fox "woke up" because he was afraid of getting a needle.
Seeing that Nian Shilan had woken up, Uranala glanced at An Muhe who had been waiting by the door. An Muhe quietly nodded and slowly exited the side hall.
"Your Majesty, Fu Jin woke up at the end of the year. The imperial doctor said he suffered from heatstroke."
An Muhe knelt in front of Concubine De, lowered his head and said.
Concubine De looked to be only thirty-seven or eighteen years old, not more than forty.
The well-maintained face should have been full of energy, but now it looked a little dull.
"Fu Jin, the fourth child, fainted at the right time. The imperial doctor only said it was due to heatstroke? But it wasn't because of her old illness?"
The maid behind Concubine De gently tapped her shoulders, her tone was calm.
An Muhe raised his head, looked at his master, and said softly.
"Yes. That's what the imperial doctor said. Yinu just observed that Fujin's face was red and sweat was pouring from his forehead. He must have really suffered from heatstroke."
"Let's go, I'll go take a look."
After Concubine De finished speaking, the maid serving beside her hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her stand up.
When Concubine De walked slowly to the side hall, Yinzhen was sitting beside Nian Shilan's bed, holding her hand.
"I have asked someone to ask for leave from the Queen, saying that you are weak and suffering from the heat, but you cannot participate in today's banquet. Fujin will leave in a while, so you can rest here. When the banquet is over, I, the King Take you back home."
Nian Shilan's face, which was burnt red by the scorching sun, seemed to have just recovered. The maids were busy using cold water to cool her down.
Wen Xianqing is sitting on the short table writing, probably prescribing medicine.
"Empress De Fei has arrived~!"
An Muhe cleared his throat and sang loudly.
Yinzhen let go of Nian Shilan's hand, stood up from the bed, and strode towards Concubine De.
"My son, please send your regards to E Niang. May E Niang be blessed with peace of mind."
Yinzhen knelt down and saluted Concubine De.
"Get back on your feet. I'm here to see how your side Fujin is doing?"
A loving smile appeared on Concubine De's face.
Yinzhen stood up and Fang replied.
"Thank you so much for your care. Nian has woken up. Dr. Wen checked her pulse and found that Nian just suffered from heatstroke. This hot summer is inevitable."
Concubine De looked at Yinzhen without saying anything, and turned her eyes to Nian Shilan on the bed.
Nian Shilan struggled and got out of bed with Songzhi's help.
She walked slowly for a few steps, and Yinzhen hurriedly took her from Songzhi and held Nian Shilan's arm.
Concubine De said slowly with a smile.
"Since you just woke up, Mr. Nian, please forgive me."
Nian Shilan walked to Concubine De and slowly knelt down.
"Prince Yong met the Concubine De in Shilan during the Jin Dynasty. He wished the empress good health and peace and blessings for thousands of years. Today, I paid my respects to the empress for the first time. However, I did not live up to my expectations. I behaved inappropriately in front of the palace and disturbed the empress. I beg you to forgive me. Concubine’s crime.”
Concubine De looked down at Nian Shilan with a loving smile on her face.
"Fourth brother, help your side Fujin up quickly. I told you not to be polite, but Nian is giving such a big gift. I can't bear it."
Yinzhen replied respectfully.
"Eniang is kind and kind. When Nian meets Eniang for the first time, it is natural that she should give her a big gift."
After saying that, he helped Nian Shilan stand up.
Nian Shilan looked energetic and haggard, leaning weakly on Yinzhen.
Seeing Nian Shilan like this, Concubine De felt relieved knowing that she was indeed in poor health.
Nian Gengyao became increasingly powerful in the previous dynasty, and Nian Gengyao did not get along with his fourth son, and he loved his sister.
If you are strong and healthy this year, you will inevitably be able to have children. It's a good thing that he's not in good health now. Prince Yong's Mansion was even able to support a sickly Xi Fujin.
It was only in this life that Nian Shilan wanted to understand the repeated hints that Concubine Duan had given her in her previous life.
She said, if I was really guilty, the emperor would not let me live till now.
Yes, she and Concubine Duan were still in the palace at that time. They were both in the Fujian Dynasty and were both generals. How could they not put Yinzhen on guard and make Yinzhen's mother, Concubine De, worried.
How about borrowing Concubine Duan's hand and making them, the general's daughter, infertile, killing two birds with one stone, wouldn't you be relieved?
Nian Shilan spoke respectfully.
"Reporting to the Concubine De, I feel that my legs and feet are weak. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the Queen's banquet today. I ask your concubine to ask for leave from the Empress on your behalf. When I feel better, I can go to the Queen's Palace on my own. Please forgive me."
Speaking of this, Yinzhen suddenly said.
"Don't worry, Shi Lan. I have already sent someone to report to the Queen. I think the Queen will understand that it's such a scorching sun. It's understandable that you've stood outside for a long time and caught the heat. Mother, what do you think?"
Yinzhen stared at Concubine De.
When he heard Songzhi say that Nian Shilan was standing outside Yonghe Palace waiting, an unknown fire arose in his heart.
Although he and Concubine De are biological mother and son, he grew up under the knee of Imperial Concubine Tong Jia and only returned to Concubine De after getting married.
He has known since he was a child that Concubine De only has the affection of mother and son in name only for him. In her heart, Concubine De's son was probably only Lao Si.
However, Yinzhen thought that Concubine De should not embarrass Fu Jin, who had personally proposed to marry him today. He had not proposed to marry any woman for a long time since his first wife, Fu Jin Yunxi, died young.
What's more, she is the biological sister of a military commander in the DPRK.
The way Concubine De looked at Yinzhen, a hint of fear for her son suddenly rose from the bottom of her heart, but her face remained gentle.
"You are my son, and Nian is your side wife, so you are naturally my daughter-in-law. I will inform the queen of this, and when Nian gets better, I will personally accompany Nian to plead guilty to the queen."
After saying that, Concubine De was supported by An Muhe and went to Linxi Pavilion to attend the Chinese Valentine's Day banquet.
Yinzhen looked at his mother's back and was silent for a long time.
Nian Shilan knew in her heart that she was just pretending to faint today, but she had already pushed the already unharmonious relationship between Yinzhen and her biological mother one step further.
It is not necessary to use a knife to kill someone, killing the heart is the best way.
Su Peisheng came in from the door, bowed his body respectfully, and said to Yinzhen.
"Master, it's already three quarters past noon. The Queen has hosted a banquet at Linxi Pavilion. It's too late."
Nian Shilan gently left Yinzhen's side, Fu Shen said.
"Master, I feel much better now that I have appeared. Master, please go to the banquet first and don't be late. I am here, waiting for you to return home with me."
Yinzhen looked at Nian Shilan's little face, softened his eyebrows, sighed softly, and took her hand.
"Then you can rest assured and wait for me to come and take you back to the palace. I will leave Su Peisheng here. He is familiar with the situation in the palace. If anything happens, just send someone to tell me quickly. Don't be alone. People cope.”
Nian Shilan looked up at Yinzhen, blinked, and laughed softly.
"Master, I know it. I won't deal with it alone. I know that my master is responsible for everything."
Yinzhen looked at her smile. Although his face was still slightly red, his energy seemed to have recovered a lot.
He hurriedly left Yonghe Palace to attend the banquet. On the way, he kept thinking that it had only been more than half a year, and he was unknowingly becoming more and more indulgent towards Nian.
