In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Chapter 415: Legend of Zhen Huan - Nian Shilan 19

The reason why the clone pill only lasts for twelve hours is because the spiritual energy content in it is too low. It can only last for twelve hours. At the same time, the consciousness of the clone is still one's own, which is not a good thing for Nian Shilan's plan.

Is there any way to maintain the physical body created by the clone pill for a longer time? Try injecting your own cultivation into it? As for the clone consciousness, try using the soul nourishing wood?

Nian Shilan first wrapped his own spirit with merit, then took out a soul-devouring stone from the space, carefully forced out a part of the trader's soul attached to his body, and after the soul-devouring stone had devoured it, he took out the clone pill and placed it next to the soul-devouring stone.

Then he injected his cultivation into the clone pill. As more and more cultivation was injected, the clone pill slowly deformed and eventually formed a body exactly the same as the trader.

The clone opened his eyes, and there was a dull look in them, just like a puppet. I guess it was because the soul had no intelligence. But as long as it could move and make noises, it didn't matter whether it was dull or not.

But this face is different. You have to cast a sleight of hand yourself. It is also convenient to take it back. As long as you recover your cultivation, the puppet will turn back into a clone pill, which is very convenient.

Now that the problem has been solved, it will be natural to consummate the marriage.

So after Yinzhen and his aides figured out that the real way to make the Nian family submit was to ask Nian Shilan to give birth to a son, he heard news from his spies in Tongxinyuan that Concubine Nian had her first period!

"This is really great!"

Now Yinzhen really felt that God was helping him, "Your Highness, it seems this is God's will!" The aide was also very happy, as he thought this was God's will.

Five days later, Yinzhen specially arranged for people to redecorate Tongxinyuan, and Nian Shilan's bedroom was transformed into a bridal chamber, even more so than a year ago. A year ago, Nian Shilan was a concubine, and there were restrictions on the color of red silk used in the bridal chamber, mostly dark red, unlike now when Yinzhen directly used the bright red color that only his wife could use.

Spreading the tent, eating dumplings, tying the hair, burning dragon and phoenix wedding candles, and two people in red, everything looks so thoughtful. If Nian Shilan was really a girl who didn't understand love, she would have been moved to tears.

However, Nian Shilan, who had the memory of her past life, found the difference between the two lives ridiculous whenever she thought about it. The sincere and passionate love of the trader could not gain Yinzhen's true heart, and the sober and rational transaction made Yinzhen fall deeper and deeper.

Yinzhen was so obsessed with the puppet that he didn't notice anything wrong. Nian Shilan blocked her ears and practiced hard in the outer room. The red candles in Tongxin Courtyard burned until dawn, and the creaking sounds in the wedding room also shook until dawn.

Yixiu in the main courtyard also kept her eyes open in tears until dawn. With all that Yinzhen had done for Nian Shilan, how could Yixiu not receive any news about it as she lived near Prince Yong's mansion?

Why can the prince have Rouze and Nian Shilan in his heart, but not me?

Perhaps it was because he got addicted to it, or perhaps it was because he wanted Nian Shilan to give birth to a son as soon as possible, but after consummating his marriage, Yinzhen basically acted like he was living in Tongxinyuan. Not only did he come every day, he even ignored Fei Gege, who was quite favored before.

Yixiu went to the palace to pay her respects to Concubine De and brought back two new princesses, one was the future Concubine Xin, Lu Yingfeng, and the other was the future Concubine Fang, Qiu Yefang. Both were beauties with different styles from Nian Shilan. Princess Lu had deep eye sockets and a high nose bridge, giving her an exotic charm, while Princess Qiu was fresh and elegant, romantic and affectionate, and looked like an old friend from a distance.

"What does Empress Defei mean? Can't you see our concubine being favored?"

Songzhi was not aware of the details of the marriage consummation. She only believed that since her daughter and the prince had become a real couple, the prince must love her daughter the most.

Seeing that Nian Shilan and Yinzhen had been in harmony with each other for less than a month, the Empress Defei in the palace had already bestowed two new people. What else could it be if not to divide the favor of the concubine?

Under the influence of Nian Shilan, the entire Nian family had long seen through Concubine De's mind, and naturally they would not try to please Concubine De as much as they did in their previous life. Now, everything Concubine De did made the Nian family see more and more clearly.

So as soon as Lu Gege and Qiu Gege entered the palace, Nian Gengyao, who had just softened his attitude because Yinzhen and Nian Shilan had consummated their marriage, became his previous businesslike self again.

"Liang Gong!"

Yinzhen sighed and didn't want to guess anymore. He stopped Nian Gengyao and dragged him to the restaurant to find out clearly. He really couldn't wait any longer. He had made some progress and had to have a frank talk with the Nian family.

"Today, Liang Gong and I must talk it out."

Nian Gengyao also knew that he couldn't go back on his word, but before he expressed his opinion, he had to fill the hole set by Concubine De first.

"My Lord, ah!"

Nian Gengyao drank three glasses of wine in a row, and uttered his true feelings with a slightly thick tongue: "Your Highness, in fact, when my Nian family decided to marry Shilan to you, we made up our minds to assist you."

"However, judging from your reaction, it seems that you are not very willing to accept the surrender of the Nian family. You really don't have sincerity."

"What do you mean, Liang Gong?" Is this prince still not sincere? After hearing what Nian Gengyao said, Yinzhen began to doubt whether he had heard it wrongly.

"If the prince really wanted to be on good terms with the Nian family, why did the Empress Defei of the palace grant two princesses to Shilan just after the emperor granted the marriage? And now, the prince just consummated his marriage with Shilan, and the Empress Defei granted two more princesses."

"Isn't this just to guard against my Nian family? If the prince doesn't like my daughter, just leave her alone. Is it fun to be like a wolf in front and a tiger behind? Why are you so afraid that Shilan will be favored?"

"This..." Yinzhen originally wanted to say that this was not the case, but for some reason, after listening to Nian Gengyao's words, he felt that there was indeed a problem, especially with the incident of Yixiu dividing the courtyard. As a prince who grew up in the palace, how could he not see the meaning behind this?

"Liang Gong, I promise you that I will treat Shilan well, and those princesses will not affect her status in the palace." Even though he knew that it was Concubine De who did the wrong thing, Yinzhen could not explain. He could only assure Nian Gengyao that he would not treat Nian Shilan unfairly, and also implied that he would not treat Nian Gengyao unfairly after the matter was accomplished.

After returning to the palace, Yinzhen was unhappy, "Gao Wuyong, check what happened when Fu Jin entered the palace today."

"Reporting to the prince, the concubine came to the palace today to pay respects to the queen. During the conversation, she mentioned that there were few children in the mansion, and also mentioned that the concubine was jealous..."

Oh! Few offspring? Wasn't it already like this before Shi Lan entered the mansion? Why didn't Mother give birth to any children? How come after Shi Lan entered the mansion, she gave birth to four children in just one year?

Yinzhen didn't believe this reason at all, so he closed his eyes and waved to the spy, "Has anything happened to the Fourteenth Prince recently?"

Out of jealousy towards his brother, Yinzhen always kept an eye on Yinzhen. Even though he felt sad every time he heard news about how much Concubine De loved the Fourteenth Prince, Yinzhen would still listen to it like a masochist.
