This palace comes back in this life, only to be Nian Shilan

Chapter 232 Xin Changzai and Xiao Xiazi complement each other

"I was confused for a moment, and my heart was blinded by greed. Your Majesty, please don't be angry with me."

Xin Changzai was not a stupid person. As she explained this to herself, she gradually came back to her senses.

Hua Fei quietly watched Xin Changzai in front of her gradually calm down from being anxious and worried.

The two looked at each other, and the courtyard of Yikun Palace fell into silence for a moment.

"Who is it?" Hua Fei asked.

In the past, Xin Changzai and her daughter were weak, and it was easy for anyone in the palace to take action against them.

But ever since Concubine Hua was reborn and discovered the secret in Linglong's rabbit sachet, she deliberately asked Huang Guiquan to secretly replace the palace maids who did odd jobs in Changchun Palace.

Because the noise could not be too loud, and Concubine Qi's close servants included Concubine Xin and Linglong, Concubine Hua could not move.

Now, all palace masters and servants knew very well that Linglong had pleased them, and Concubine Xin had taken advantage of the situation to join them, yet there were still people who dared to lay their hands on Linglong.

Humph, there are probably not many people in this palace who can reach out to Linglong.

Concubine Hua thought over and over again, but she finally decided to let Concubine Xin learn a lesson and let her find out the answer herself.

You have to get hit with this stick once before you learn your lesson.

"It should be Aunt Zhang."

Nanny Zhang was the wet nurse bought from outside by Yixiu, the mistress of the palace, when Xin Changzai was pregnant with Linglong.

At that time, Yixiu was well-known for her virtue in the palace. When her wet nurse entered the palace, Yixiu asked Jianqiu to send her to her along with the indenture.

Nanny Zhang was a dutiful and honest person. She served Xin Chang by her side quietly. Later, when Linglong was born, Nanny Zhang breastfed her diligently.

Later, after entering the palace, Linglong was raised in the prince's residence. It was Nanny Zhang's careful care that made her feel less worried.

To me, Aunt Zhang has been like a family member to me over the years.

Because Linglong had been well taken care of by her since she was a child, Concubine Xin also had special trust in Nanny Zhang.

Therefore, a few days ago, when Nanny Zhang came back from the study with Linglong, she said a few words about how pitiful the Fourth Prince was, as his cuffs were torn and no one cared.

Only then will I feel compassion.

"How much does she know about you?" Concubine Hua remembered that when she asked for the rabbit sachet, Nanny Zhang was by her side.

"I am usually served by Xiuhe, and Nanny Zhang is still with Linglong. I have never told her what I usually tell you."

Xin Changzai quickly assured him, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I also changed the rabbit sachet by myself at that time. It was not until this year that I let Linglong pick it because it was old."

"Humph, you are cautious."

"Your Majesty, look at what you said. I can't be so careless." Xin Changzai heard that Hua Fei's tone had become much softer, and hurriedly climbed up the pole.

Concubine Hua finally knew who Linglong learned this ability of climbing up the ladder and knowing when to stop.

"Your Majesty, why is Nanny Zhang guiding me like this?" Xin Chang couldn't figure it out.

She even felt that Nanny Zhang was not someone close to the Queen. If she was someone close to the Queen, why was she able to give birth to Linglong smoothly back then?

Xin often couldn't figure it out.

Hua Fei also had doubts in her heart.

There is no wind without waves, but we should not be overly cautious.

Maybe this nanny is just nagging because she is old and her words are not meant intentionally.

As for why the Queen let Concubine Xin give birth to Linglong, Concubine Hua was also very curious.

"Is Fourth Prince still having such a hard time now?" Concubine Hua mentioned something else. "Didn't I hear that you and Concubine Qi would send some things over from time to time?"

Since returning to the palace, Concubine Hua has not seen the Fourth Prince in order to avoid suspicion. Before that, she often asked Songzhi to send some clothes and food to the prince's residence.

But ever since the emperor came to test me that day, I have never sent anyone to the prince's residence again.

Concubine Hua felt that even if she didn't go, others would take care of her.

"Oh no, it's all because of the epidemic. As soon as we got delayed, my sister Qi Fei and I forgot about it." Xin Changzai sighed softly.

Concubine Qi also paid attention to the Fourth Prince when she went to visit the Third Prince. But recently, Concubine Xin heard that the Queen was quite dissatisfied with Concubine Qi and rarely let her sister see the Third Prince. Then the Fourth Prince naturally...

Needless to say, Concubine Wan is now pregnant and her whole mind is on her baby, so she naturally can't take care of many things.

Hua Fei listened to Xin Chang analyzing the news she had heard from various sources and could not help but roll her eyes.

The abilities of Concubine Xin complement those of Xiao Xiazi. If they could one day join forces, I wonder how lively the palace would be.

"Since Nanny Zhang feels sorry for the Fourth Prince, you can ask Nanny Zhang to give the Fourth Prince a piece of spring clothing when she accompanies Linglong to school tomorrow."

"I understand. But it's really strange, how come I thought of you as soon as Nanny Zhang said that." Nanny Zhang was not a tactful speaker, so how come she had such an idea as soon as she heard what she said?

"It's because you all keep talking nonsense." Concubine Hua pointed out Concubine Xin's doubts.

"My Queen~!"

Hua Fei couldn't help laughing when she saw Xin Changzai's angry look.

Since Concubine Xin said so, she didn't believe that Nanny Zhang was really old and talkative.

Linglong is only six and a half years old now. Even if the wet nurse is old, how old can she be?

But who is the mastermind behind Nanny Zhang?

Is it really the queen again?

Concubine Hua decided to let Zhou Ninghai investigate.

Even if this nanny was fine, she would not feel comfortable letting her serve Linglong anymore.

No one can touch her bottom line. In this life, the Nian family and Linglong are her last hold.

Whoever dares to plot against them must die!

"Empress Hua, look at the big fat walnut." Linglong ran over with a big walnut bag in both hands.

It is a new thing made of Ganoderma lucidum, stuffed with walnuts, almonds and other things. It looks more like a bun than a snack, and is given to Linglong to eat for fun.

"Linglong, when you go to school in the future, Madam Hua will ask Sister Lingzhi to prepare a box of snacks for you, okay?"

Linglong sat on Hua Fei's lap and ate a walnut bun. Hua Fei remembered that when Lingzhi made it for her before, the walnut bun was quite small, but now the one in Linglong's hand was three times bigger.

"Okay, then Linglong will eat with the third and fourth brothers."

Every time Linglong was in the middle of class, she could hear her two brothers singing the Empty City Strategy in their stomachs.

With an empty stomach and an empty mind, it's no wonder that fourth brother's memorization has become slower.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty upheld the concept of health preservation, and children had to be hungry to be good for their stomachs. Eating too much could easily lead to various diseases. Therefore, the children in the harem were always hungry.

Before, when Linglong was in the prince's residence, the amount of food she ate was controlled. Only when she met Xin Changzai would Xin Changzai quietly give Linglong some snacks.

So when Concubine Hua met Linglong in the Imperial Garden, she was able to win her over with just a box of snacks.

"Madam Hua, you don't know that the third and fourth brothers can't even get enough to eat in the study, and Linglong is starving with them."
