"You, it's better not to waste time debating."

“…”

"Just explain."

With a plop, Nian Qiu's legs were trembling. At this moment, it seemed that it could no longer support its frozen body, and she knelt on the ground.

She shivered, trembling like a leaf in the wind, and said softly: "Empress, when did Empress know?"

“…”

When he heard this, although it was obviously an unexpected sentence, Nanyan's heart beat still sank.

She still has hope before hearing this.

Hope is because of my random thoughts, and hope is because of my guessing.

However, Nian Qiu's words completely shattered her hope.

Her eyes turned red in an instant, and hot tears surged from the bottom of her heart, and her eyes blurred. Tears flashed in her eyes, looking at the strange and familiar figure in front of her.

Although this figure was twisted by tears and could not be identified clearly.

She murmured, "It's really... it's you."

Hearing this sentence, Nianqiu couldn't even lift her head.

Nan Yan looked at her and smiled bitterly for some time.

No matter what, Nianqiu has been with her for so long. Although she is a slave, she never thought of treating her as a slave, but treating her as a caring and naughty sister.

When she was naughty, she spoiled herself.

When she is wrong, she must teach her.

She had caused trouble, even if it made the emperor unhappy, she would have to protect her.

Even Nan Yan has thought more than once that in addition to Ran Xiaoyu's lifelong event, she also has to worry about Nianqiu.

When she grows up a little, matures and becomes more stable, she will find a good family for her to marry, so that she can have no worries about food and clothing for the second half of her life, and there will be no more twists and turns or hardships.

But all this stopped at the day when she knew it all.

Even though so long has passed, even now, I have received the answer from Nian Qiu in person, my heart is still as painful as before.

She looked at her and asked deeply again: "It's really you?"

Nian Qiu was trembling with the pain in her words. She looked up at Nanyan again and said with difficulty: "Empress, when did you know?"

“…”

Nan Yan did not answer this question, but just looked straight at her, with endless desolation in her eyes. After looking for a long time, she slowly said: "Originally, it should have been earlier."

Nianqiu's heart trembled again.

Then I heard Nan Yan say slowly: "Actually, after the emperor beat you and I scold you, I should be careful and be careful."

“…”

"I actually knew for a long time that human nature cannot stand the test. Especially in places like the harem."

“…”

"But, I thought that no matter what, you have been with me for so long, and you should know the right and wrong, and you will not be like those people, and you will fall into depravity and go astray."

“…”

"Even sometimes, the words you say in my ears are no longer something a kind-hearted person can say."

“…”

"Even at that time, I am willing to believe you."

“…”

"I think you are still young and think you are ignorant. As long as you spend some energy to teach you well after this period of time, you can still teach you back."

Her words made Nian Qiu's face turn red and white.

She gritted her teeth, suddenly raised her head, her eyes burst into anger, and said, "My lady still thinks it's my servant wrong? What did I do wrong? I obviously taught the bitch named Xue a lesson for you, why did I end up being wrong?"

“…”

"The emperor beat me. Not only did the Empress not help me, but she also said that I was wrong, but she also said that I was ugly and my parents didn't teach me well!"

Nan Yan's eyes were originally full of regret and helplessness.

But when he heard her words, the regrets and helplessness immediately condensed into frost.

She said in a deep voice: "At this time, do you still think you are right?"

“…”

"No matter how bad Xue Yun is, she has never harmed me. Not only has she not harmed me, she has helped me repeatedly. If she had not been in Shazhou Guard, the child would probably not be able to be saved."

“…”

"I am dissatisfied with her, but I have never thought of harming her."

Nian Qiu's eyes turned red, she sneered, and said with a stern face, "Hmph, is this a waste of me, a slave?"

“…”

"Looking at you, Empress, what's wrong with us doing something to make you happy? She is just a little imperial physician. What's wrong with letting her stand in the wind?"

“…”

"The emperor punishes me, just to protect her and slap your face."

“…”

"Empress, you are still talking to them?"

Hearing this, Nan Yan shook his head gently and said in a deep voice: "You still don't know why you punished you?"

“…”

"You don't know, why I don't protect you."

Nianqiu gritted her teeth and didn't speak.

Nan Yan smiled bitterly, the regret and helplessness in her eyes turned into pity at this moment. She shook her head and said slowly: "This harem was originally a bottomless abyss, and every concubine was walking by the abyss. Taking a step further is not only for herself, but for the people around her, they are also working."

“…”

"Empress Renxiao is wise, so Bihe and Chun'er around her never cause trouble."

“…”

"On the other hand, the Wu family, Feng family, and today's Shen family, the people around them, Qiao Yun Hexiang, and Hanxiang Fuer. If these people have a good person, their master will not do these bad things unscrupulously. It's a pity that these people not only disobey their master's behavior, but instead fan the flames and do everything."

She said, staring at Nianqiu: "Just like these days, you have done."

“…!”

Nianqiu's breathing sank.

Nanyan continued: "I have heard a saying since I was a child that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. In my opinion, the so-called dangerous wall is not only dangerous, but also dangerous people."

“…”

"This is the reason why those who are close to the red are red and those who are close to the ink are black."

“…”

"I am in the deep palace, except for the emperor, and you are all by your side. Your nature and your words will directly affect my nature. If you say a bad word, a bit of malice will appear in my heart. Over time, I originally wanted to be a virtuous concubine, but in the end, I would forget my original heart and become a domineering villain who cares about human life."

“…”

"The reason why the emperor punished you is because he saw such a sign."

“…”
