She originally thought that Concubine Ning would say something like "come and see you".
However, Concubine Ning said calmly, "Of course there is something to do."
"..."
"The imperial concubine has already said that she doesn't want to see my concubine. If it wasn't for the emperor, I wouldn't want to come here to make trouble."
"For the emperor?"
Nan Yan frowned slightly.
Of course, she immediately thought of the predicament Zhu Feng was facing now.
Qin Ruolan came here for this matter
Although from the bottom of her heart, she really didn't want to see her, but when she heard her say such words, Nan Yan's heart still moved slightly. She thought about it, and then said: "Okay, sit down."
Qin Ruolan got up, walked slowly to a chair beside her, and sat down.
Nan Yan said to Nian Qiu: "Serve tea."
Soon, the refreshments were delivered, and Nanyan winked again, asking Ran Xiaoyu to take Nianqiu and the others out of the room. Just like a broken jade doll, I'm afraid Concubine Ning will bump into something.
However, seeing Nan Yan's order, she could only withdraw.
Stand guard not far from the door.
Nan Yan also sat down on the chair, raised her head, glanced at Concubine Ning who was much more dignified than before, and said, "You came to see me, what are you going to do for the Emperor?"
Qin Ruolan went straight to the point: "I believe that the empress already knows that the emperor's construction of Beiping City this time has been opposed by the officials. They jointly signed a letter requesting the emperor to stop the construction of Beiping City."
Nan Yan said lightly: "The harem cannot interfere in politics."
Qin Ruolan said: "But, didn't your empress also go to the emperor's study?"
"I went there to serve the emperor for dinner, lest he only care about state affairs and forget about his own body."
"If this matter can be resolved, the matter of the emperor's meal and his body will be trivial matters."
"..."
Nan Yan frowned: "You, can you solve this matter?"
Qin Ruolan smiled coldly, and said, "I'm nothing but a little concubine in the harem."
"Then what do you mean by coming to me?"
"I can't, but, imperial concubine, you can!"
Nan Yan stared at her for a while, then said, "Concubine Ning, are you joking with me?"
"..."
"The emperor is having a headache because of this matter, that is to say, even the emperor cannot solve this matter so quickly."
"..."
"Now you say, this palace can solve it?"
"..."
"Is this palace different from you? Isn't it a concubine in the harem?"
Qin Ruolan said indifferently: "But my lady, you are pregnant, and you are loved by thousands of people."
"..."
I don't know why, these words are obviously a kind of flattery, and they are also what Nan Yan likes most and what she wants to hear the most. No matter who says it, she will taste a kind of sweetness.
However, from Qin Ruolan's mouth——
But full of irony.
She was telling herself that her doting was because of her pregnancy.
Her brows were all tightened.
Then he said: "If you come to satirize me, or if you want to play tricks on me, then you don't have to."
Qin Ruolan said: "My words are not a joke. The empress is now pregnant with Liujia, and it is very likely that she can give birth to a prince for the emperor. These years, the emperor has only one Wei Wang under his knees, and it can be said that the heirs are withered. Therefore, the emperor treats the empress this way. One child is very important."
"so what?"
"So, the emperor will not do anything that is not good for the empress, or that makes the empress unhappy."
"..."
Nan Yan seemed to hear something, and said, "For example—"
"For example," Qin Ruolan looked straight into her eyes and said, "This time, the emperor decided to stay in Yanwang Mansion in Beiping for a whole year, but he didn't even summon a single concubine to serve in Beiping."
"...!"
Nan Yan's heart sank.
She hadn't thought about it before, because she didn't want to think about it, but hearing what Qin Ruolan said, her mind immediately opened up.
Indeed, the emperor went to a place and settled for a long time, how could he not have concubines to serve him.
I am already pregnant, so I cannot accept Ze Yulu.
Concubine Ning—Zhu Feng also clearly expressed her alienation from her.
The emperor cannot live without women, or, to be more precise, some ministers in the court are waiting for the emperor to summon the concubines in the palace to his side.
But none of them.
The queen was going to sit in the palace, and it was understandable that she didn't come, but none of the others came either.
This, indeed, is inappropriate both emotionally and rationally.
Nan Yan frowned and glanced at Qin Ruolan.
Qin Ruolan said: "Since Madam knows that this time, many courtiers jointly signed the letter, do you know what kind of courtiers they are?"
Nan Yan thought for a while, and when she spoke again, her voice was slightly astringent.
She said: "Of course I don't know the names on the booklet, but I can imagine that they are all officials from the south."
"That's right."
Qin Ruolan said: "Then, what do you think the officials in the north should do in this storm?"
"..."
The construction of Beiping means that the emperor wants to shift the center of power and culture to the north, and of course the officials in the south will not do it.
However, this is a great event for officials in the north!
Even, not just officials from the north.
The gentry in the north, the students in the north, and even the common people in the north will all benefit from this incident.
Therefore, if someone wants to oppose it, then of course, someone must support it.
One ebbs and another ebbs and flows, it is constant!
Nan Yan said softly: "The officials in the north should agree."
"That's right," Qin Ruolan said calmly, "Then, among the officials in the north, who is the leader?"
"...!"
Nan Yan's heart trembled again.
Officials in the north, the leader.
Needless to say
Wu responded.
Wu Yingqiu, Chief Secretary of Henan Province, is Cheng Guogong again, so he is naturally an invisible leader among northern officials!
But-
"However, in this storm, he can't be seen."
Qin Ruolan said word by word: "Your Majesty, do you know why?"
"..."
Nan Yan was speechless.
The oppressive feeling in her chest just now came to her heart again, and it even made her eyes go black for a moment.
Of course she knew why.
Qin Ruolan said a little, and she understood.
Because Wu Yingqiu's daughter, Wu Wan, lost the battle in the harem, and has been demoted from Concubine Kang to Concubine Zhuang.
Even this time, Zhu Feng stayed in Beiping for a whole year, and he didn't even have the intention of summoning her to serve.
It is impossible for Wu Yingqiu to not care about this obvious neglect.
So, this time, he didn't show up either.
He was waiting for the emperor to express his opinion to him.
In order for him to come forward and fight against the wind and rain with the emperor, there must be a prerequisite, that is, Wu Wan's reset, and let her return to Zhu Feng's side again!
