That night, at Lan Yi Pavilion.
After Consort Jing and Imperial Physician leave, I don't even need to pretend to be standing up.
Baojuan saw that I woke up and was so happy that she cried. Baojuan was actually very happy to see me wake up, but she kept feeling that something was wrong.
Xu Wanhai bowed to the side and heaved a sigh of relief.”
Bao Juan couldn't believe it. Why?"
The cold moonlight shone into the inner room through the thin cloud silk curtains, and the day passed by in a thrilling manner. I casually picked up the fragrant tea on the table and said indifferently,"His wife and children are kneeling on the ground and suffering, but I'm standing by the side. Is this appropriate?"”
Xu Wanhai's eyes lit up and he smiled.”
Baojuan pursed her lips and said," Consort Hua is so ruthless. Wan Guipin has already miscarried. Hui Ronghua is also injured all over. Even Juqing was kicked. Her injuries are not light!"”As she spoke, her eyes became redder and redder as she silently shed tears.
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly,"Hua Fei is powerful now. Although I can't do anything to her, she will be pushed down by everyone sooner or later." Juqing's injuries should rest well. There's no need to serve her.”
Xu Wanhai thought for a moment and said," Young Master, Tian Pin and Wan Guipin have miscarriages. Everyone in the harem is in danger. Although the Emperor is praying for rain outside the palace, he should return to the palace tomorrow or the day after tomorrow after receiving the news."”
I didn't change my expression and said,"Forget it, send someone to visit Mei Zhuang. As for what Wan Guipin should send, just do it."”
Bao Juan smiled to vent her hatred,"When the Emperor returns, Concubine Hua will definitely-"
Not waiting for Baojuan to finish, I directly said coldly,"Consort Hua will be fine. Forget it, I don't care about the other servants in the palace, but Lan Yi Lou, you all better be alert. What to say and what not to say, I don't need to teach you!" I'm tired. You guys can leave!"
Xu Wanhai and Baojuan looked at each other and sighed helplessly. They could only bow and leave.
Zhen Huan, I've had enough of this feeling. You've dominated my husband for so long. It's time for you to slowly return it to me!
The next day.
Baojuan walked in with a huff and hurriedly bowed. She smiled nervously and said,"Little Master, do you know?" Wan Guipin is disfigured!"
The words I wrote were completely ruined because of this happy girl. Xiao Shunzi and Xu Wanhai looked at my gloomy face and lowered their heads to hold back their laughter.
I pretended to be curious. But I was in Mixiu Palace yesterday, how could I not know? You only found out about what happened yesterday today, Baojuan? Hmm?" The more I spoke, the gloomier my expression became.
Baojuan blushed and stuck out her tongue shyly." Yesterday, everyone fainted because of Little Master. Wan Guipin was too busy with her miscarriage and lost her mind. I didn't check for a moment, I didn't check for a moment!"”
Xiao Shunzi smiled and teased,"Aunt Baojuan didn't check for a while!" En! Not bad, not bad! As expected of the palace maid in charge of Lan Yi Pavilion!”
Bao Juan fiercely glared at Xiao Shunzi and then obediently looked at me like a kitten.”
I didn't change my expression and said," I'm not shocked by favor or disgrace. Baojuan, you should learn from Eunuch Xu. Even a small straight is better than you!”
Baojuan lowered her head in shame, then thought of something and looked up at me in surprise." It's just that little master, how could Wan Guipin be disfigured after receiving so many rewards from the emperor?”
I looked at her hopelessly and said coldly,"When did your brain become so stupid?" Only now? Eunuch Xu, tell her!"
Eunuch Xu smiled." The Emperor has bestowed Wan Guipin with many healing and beauty products. Among them, there are many medicines that can make a woman's skin white and tender, as well as maintain her youth.”After a pause, he looked at Bao Juan's curious eyes and continued to smile." It's just that there's a medicine called Tian Zhi among these medicines. If a person is injured, the wound will continue to fester and can't scab. It was so itchy that people with weak minds would not be able to resist scratching. Therefore, Wan Guipin's face was not only scratched by the civet cat, but also the scars left by Wan Guipin herself.”
Baojuan clicked her tongue and said,"But this is a reward from the emperor!"”
Xiao Shunzi laughed,"Half of the Imperial Academy of Medicine is in the hands of Concubine Hua!"”
Bao Juan said in fear,"It's too terrifying!" Then what medicine does Little Master take every day?"
Xu Wanhai said calmly,"Little Master's medicine is naturally fine."”
I quietly wrote and ignored them. I'm afraid that only Xu Wanhai and Xiao Shunzi in the entire harem knew that I was the one who instructed Imperial Physician Er Jiang beside Consort Hua to know Tian Zhi's role. Otherwise, how could that idiot Consort Hua think of it?
At this moment, Qiao Hui came forward to report,"Little Lord, Consort Jing has come to visit you!"”
I didn't even look up as I said," Please."
Consort Jing held her pearl-like hand and walked in with a smile,"You've just fainted yesterday and now you're up practicing writing again?" "I really don't know if I should call you diligent or you…" Bao Juan was already used to serving hot tea, but Consort Jing had a look of not knowing what to say.
I didn't change my expression and said,"I have nothing to do, just killing time."”
Consort Jing sighed,"Hui Ronghua was injured and recuperating, Wan Guipin had a miscarriage and was disfigured. Ai!" Only you can practice your calligraphy in peace after yesterday's shock!”
My pen kept saying coldly,"Otherwise what? Everyone had their own fate. With the Emperor's love for Wan Guipin, what kind of spirit medicine would he not have?”
Jing Fei sipped her tea and sneered,"Wan Guipin's face is injured like that, how can it recover?" Don't joke around! Moreover, if the Emperor really cared for Wan Guipin, he would not have let Hua Fei temporarily take over the palace affairs. It was not like the Emperor did not know that Hua Fei had always hated Wan Guipin!”
I raised my eyebrows in disdain and asked coldly,"What?" Was Jing Fei jiejie very clear about the Emperor's thoughts? No matter what, Wan Guipin was pregnant with a dragon heir. Even if the emperor did not really care about Wan Guipin, even if he did care about Wan Guipin because of the emperor's dragon son, the emperor should still care about Wan Guipin!”
Consort Jing looked at me seriously and said lightly,"Yesterday I sent Hanzhu to invite the Empress Dowager but I didn't see her." Although the Tian family's children were delicate, it wasn't that others couldn't raise them! If it wasn't for Guo Junwang's help, things would have been chaotic yesterday.”
Although my heart was surprised, my face was unmoved."Ling Rong doesn't understand sister's meaning, nor does he understand the emperor's thoughts."”
Consort Jing sighed,"Ling Rong doesn't treat sister as one of us!"”Consort Jing saw that I was still calmly writing, so she sighed and continued,"The Empress wants Consort Hua to manage the harem because she wants to use Consort Hua's hands to get rid of some eyesores!" The Emperor had agreed to let Consort Hua manage the harem, firstly to appease the Murong family, and secondly---this way, Wan Guipin and Consort Hua would kill each other!”
I raised my eyebrows and coldly said,"The Emperor has always doted on Wan Guipin, so how could he bear to see Hua Fei hurt her!"”
Consort Jing shook her head and smiled,"From the beginning to the end, the emperor only loves the pure yuan empress." The others were just fleeting clouds. The Murong family was powerful, and the Emperor had already intended to get rid of them!”After saying that, he stared at my face as if he wanted to see something.
I said expressionlessly,"This is the fate of the concubines."”In his heart, he lamented that Xuan Ling only loved Zhu Rou. What about me? Zhen Huan was also responsible for getting rid of Concubine Hua. The Empress would not touch her for the sake of Zhu Rou and the Empress Dowager. What is my fate? Xuan Ling, you treat women as chess pieces. What's the use of my chess piece?
Jing Fei smiled with a face full of regret,"But I can see that the emperor treats you differently."”
I said coldly,"So what?" According to what you said, wouldn't the Emperor treat Wan Guipin better?”
Consort Jing's tone stifled, then she laughed again,"In short, you are different from Wan Guipin!"”
Before I could say anything, Qiao Yue stepped forward and reported respectfully,"Little Lord, Jing Fei niangniang, the Emperor has returned to court and has just ordered the punishment of Hua Fei niangniang."”
I raised my eyebrows and said nothing. It was Consort Jing who asked,"How will the Emperor punish Consort Hua?"”
Qiao Yue looked at me and stammered,"The Emperor only reprimanded Concubine Hua and then grounded Concubine Hua in Mixiu Palace. After rewarding Wan Guipin and Hui Ronghua, the Emperor was probably in Tangli Palace now!”
Consort Jing said regretfully," I know, you can leave."”She turned to me and smiled,"I guessed that the emperor would not punish Consort Hua too severely." I'm just unwilling."
I coughed slightly and said coldly,"Jingfei jiejie, I'm not feeling well and want to rest. Let's talk another day!"”
Jing Fei saw my pale face and said thoughtfully,"Then I'll come to see you another day. Take care of your body. I'll go back too!"”As he spoke, he held Hanzhu and left with a smile.
As soon as Consort Jing left, I said coldly,"Eunuch Xu, stay here. Everyone else, leave."”Bao Juan and Xiao Shunzi looked at each other in bewilderment, but in the end, they bowed obediently and retreated.
I looked at Xu Wanhai and said seriously," In the harem, besides Hui Ronghua, who is the most important to Wan Guipin?”
Xu Wanhai thought for a moment and replied,"Consort Duan-Chun Liangyuan!"”
I sneered,"Wan Guipin is already disfigured, so it's hard to say whether she'll be doted on sooner or later, but there must be someone to fight with Hua Fei!"”
Xu Wanhai was puzzled and said,"Little Master, what do you mean?"
I turned around to look at the colorful flowers outside the window and said coldly," Chun Liangyuan is only fifteen years old this year, but she's a cute and playful child. She accidentally fell into the lotus pond when she was flying a kite.”
Xu Wanhai shivered and said nervously," Little Master, this?”
I coldly replied,"Wan Guipin and Hui Ronghua have endless hatred for Consort Hua. Wan Guipin is disfigured, Hui Ronghua has no intention of fighting for favor, Consort Duan is old and doesn't care about worldly affairs, only Chun Liang Yuan!" Consort Hua would definitely not let Chun Liang Yuan off! I heard that Consort Duan had invited Cao Jie Yu to have a chat, so I happened to pass by the Lotus Pond! Eunuch Xu, you have always known my feelings. I believe that you will not disappoint me, okay?”
Xu Wanhai took a deep breath and smiled. But what was the reason Consort Duan invited Cao Jie Yu?”
I turned around and looked at Xu Wanhai with a cold gaze." Huan Yixiang, and the future of Empress Wen Yi!”
Xu Wanhai was so shocked that he couldn't believe it. This-"
I said expressionlessly," I believe Eunuch Xu can arrange it flawlessly. Eunuch Xu, don't disappoint me!"”
Xu Wanhai was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.”She didn't expect that a person who was usually cold and aloof would not be a soft character when he was ruthless. Seeing that I didn't give any more instructions, he respectfully bowed and left.
Consort Duan is just a pretense to lure Cao Qinmo into a trap. Huan Yixiang and your beloved daughter are the stakes. Cao Qinmo, I don't believe you won't come.
The reason why he chose Consort Duan was because she had too deep of an entanglement with Consort Hua. Moreover, Consort Duan was also a veteran in the Inner Palace. Although she did not care about the affairs of the world, it did not mean that she was a soft persimmon. No one was more suitable than her now.
Zhen Huan, if you are smart enough, you should know that a man's pity for you is enough to get you many things. However, I won't allow it! Besides, you just lost your son, so how can you be a begonia flower?
Xuan Ling, if you find out one day, I hope you won't hate me.
It was night.
With a bang, the window was knocked open and a strong wind rushed in, flipping the pages on the desk. Hui Xue, who was doing needlework at the side, hurriedly got up to close the window. Only then did she realize that in the dark night, with a flash of lightning and a thunder, copper-coin-sized raindrops had already poured down.
Hui Xue knew that I didn't like to be disturbed when I was practicing, so she closed the door quietly and went out.
In the blink of an eye, the sound of water splashing echoed in all directions.
I raised my head and stood up. I opened the window again and looked at the rain outside. I was a little stunned. Hui Xue hasn't been by my side for a long time. It sounds nice that I treat her like my own sister and can't bear for her to do this.
Hui Xue was an innocent child, but so was Chun Liangyuan. I don't know what their fate will be after tonight. I don't know what my fate will be like. In fact, I just want to be an ordinary person and live a simple life. Even if I come to a different world, I still hope to have parents who love me and a good person who will accompany me until we grow old. It's a pity that all my efforts in this life have gone against my heart. Was the heavens playing a trick on him? Then I can only--
" Silent alone, go up to the west tower, the moon is like a hook, and the lonely sycamore tree is locked in the deep courtyard. Cut it off, the reason is still chaotic, it is the sorrow of separation, not the general feeling in the heart.”I opened my red lips and slowly chanted, as if I understood the emotions in these words more and more.
"Zhen's expression is very emotional?" Xuan Ling was dressed in a light purple robe and wore a green hairpin crown. He stood tall and straight, with a smile on his handsome face. Lee Chang stood quietly behind him with a palace lantern and an umbrella. Occasionally, the rain would wet his hair, and the wind would gently blow his robe. His eyes were very gentle. Was this the so-called handsome and handsome?
As he walked over, everything around him suddenly dimmed and disappeared.
I watched the man walk slowly, step by step, calmly and elegantly. For a moment, I stopped breathing.
It was only a few steps, but it felt like a lifetime. He smiled as he stood in front of me and teased,"How come I haven't seen you for a few days and your Ling Rong doesn't recognize me?"”
I tilted my head and slowly chanted,"Look at the Qi Ao, the green bamboo Yi Yi." There is no gentleman, like cutting, like grinding, like grinding. The zither and the shovel were loud and noisy. If you are not a gentleman, you can't be dishonest after all. Was he talking about a man like the emperor?”
Xuan Ling smiled gently and said,"My Ling Rong is the bandit woman!"”As she spoke, she hugged me tightly and placed her chin on my head. She said gently,"I feel like I haven't seen you in a long time."”
I snuggled in his arms and said,"I thought that the Emperor would not come to see me tonight, so I was a little emotional."”
He rubbed his face against my hair and said dotingly,"Although I am sad because I lost my child, the person I am most worried about is you."”
I raised my head to look at Xuan Ling. His facial features were firm and handsome. His dark eyes contained a cold seriousness. There was a calm and restrained brilliance that could capture one's soul. Such a man was the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and my husband. He's the man I like.
I sighed and pretended to be sad." I didn't expect so many things to happen after the Emperor left the palace. I pity Wan Guipin." Her watery eyes seemed to contain tears of sorrow.
Xuan Ling's expression darkened as she sighed,"Perhaps the heavens are punishing me, causing my child's fate to be so bad!"”
I stretched out my small hand to caress his brows and comforted him,"The emperor is still young. There will be more princes and concubines in the future." Although these things were man-made, you can't blame the emperor! Who asked the emperor to be human?"
Xuan Ling was moved and smiled, but she ignored my words. She said with a gentle face,"My face is always the most considerate. The greatest blessing in my life is to know and stay with you!"”
I pretended to be depressed and lowered my head. My hair was as black as the clouds, and my eyelashes were like a delicate rose that was half-open. I said with a faint sadness," It is my blessing to be able to meet the emperor in this life. It is just that the harem is too scary! Without the emperor's protection, I really don't know what to do!”
Xuan Ling's eyes flashed sharply and his tone was domineering and firm." My dear Ling Rong, no one dares to hurt you!”
I raised my head and looked at Xuan Ling's red lips. Her eyes were about to cry, but she remained silent.
Xuan Ling sighed as she hugged me and slowly walked into the inner room. The room was filled with warmth. Li Chang had already closed the door obediently and left.
A few days later. At noon.
Xuan Ling sat on the dragon throne in the Hall of Yiyuan with a frown. She asked Li Chang with uncertainty," What kind of person do you think An Pin is?”
Li Chang was stunned, thinking about how he should answer. Seeing that Xuan Ling's handsome face seemed to have a deep confusion, he thought about it and hesitated,"Why does the emperor ask this?" This servant only felt that An Pin was just like her name, and that she was extremely talented and extraordinary.”
Xuan Ling's eyes were filled with confusion as she sighed." When I was with her, I couldn't help but want to treat her well. I always wanted to protect her.”
Li Chang was shocked. He said calmly," Lady An Pin is indeed weak, unlike the other concubines who can take care of themselves.”
Xuan Ling sighed helplessly." Although she's always cold, I can feel that she's a very kind person. But you can't make me feel at ease."
Li Chang bowed and remained silent. He did not dare to guess the Emperor's thoughts. Moreover, what about the favored Wan Guipin?
Misty Pavilion. On the platform of Linglong Tower.
Ever since Xuan Ling left that night, she has been more considerate to me. I don't think any man can reject the deep feelings of a weak woman, right? Moreover, she was a woman who needed his protection! It's just that I've been pretending to be sick for so long. Very soon, for example, the Empress won't allow me to continue being sick.
Now that Zhen Huan is disfigured, I want to see if Xuan Ling has the time to hand-draw her beautiful pear makeup and if he has the mood to hold a wedding for Zhen Huan. The emperor was heartless. The one who died was his child. Although he was sad, this did not shake him. He knew this when he saw Consort Hua sitting in Mixiu Palace. The so-called pampering was just asking a tiger for its skin.
Mei Zhuang held Cai Yue's hand and saw An Pin sitting in the pavilion from afar. She was dressed in a crimson dress, with the beauty of peonies but without a trace of gaudiness. Her every move was full of spiritual aura. The courtyard was filled with clusters of precious and beautiful pear blossoms. The flowers were in full bloom. The beautiful scenery of the pear blossoms reflected in the spring water was actually suppressed by An Pin's beauty. An Pin, on the other hand, was not disturbed by the outside world at all. She just quietly ate the rose dew. The pink juice stained her rosy lips. No matter how you looked at it, she was an extremely weak and beautiful woman.
Mei Zhuang walked forward and smiled." I've never noticed that Ling Rong is a stunning beauty. Even the beautiful scenery of pear blossoms is not as beautiful as yours!"”
I didn't change my expression and said," Sister Mei is joking. Ling Rong has been sick so I didn't have the chance to see Sister Mei. I wonder how Sister Mei's body is? Huixue, watch the tea."
Mei Zhuang's face darkened and she said,"What else can I do?" As for Huan 'er! She's suffered much, much more than me!" Hui Xue thoughtfully handed him a cup of hot tea and bowed before leaving.
I lowered my head and pretended to be sad." Sigh, the harem is indeed a land of tigers and wolves. It's not something you and I can compete with!”
Mei Zhuang looked up at Hui Xue in surprise." Lingrong, why do I feel like I haven't seen Hui Xue for a long time?"”
I looked at Hui Xue and said gently," Hui Xue is my sister. How can I bear to let her do these things? It's just that the weather is good today, so I asked her to accompany me.”
Mei Zhuang looked up at the blue sky and smiled." It's a good day. It was raining a few days ago, but it's finally sunny today!"”
At this time, Xiao Shunzi hurriedly came forward and reported," Little Master, Little Master Rong Hua, Chun Liangyuan has lost her footing and drowned in the lotus pond!”
Mei Zhuang stood up with a whoosh and shook her head with tears in her eyes. How could this be? How was this possible? How could such a good person! Tell me! What exactly happened?"
Little Shunzi said with a bitter face," I heard that Little Chunliang Yuan saw that the weather was fine, so she went out to fly a kite in Shanglin Park. I don't know how she lost her footing in Bihe Pavilion!"”
Mei Zhuang fell heavily on the chair, then burst into tears in disbelief and ran out.
I looked at the dazed Cai Yue and said coldly," Hurry up and chase after her!”
After Mei Zhuang and Cai Yue left, Xu Wanhai went forward to probe," Then Little Master, are you going?”
I didn't change my expression and said,"Hui Xue, leave." My body is too weak to withstand such torment. Let's go back to my room.”As he spoke, he slowly walked towards the bedroom. Hui Xue had already retreated politely, and Xu Wanhai followed suit.
In the inner room, I calmly sat on the pear blossom wooden chair. I picked up the fragrant tea in the blue and white porcelain cup and took a sip. I closed my eyes and coldly said," Chun Liang Yuan drowned. Who was the murderer?”
Xu Wanhai smiled." In Chun Liangyuan's hand is a jade pendant that belongs to Cao Jie Yu.”
I said expressionlessly,"Eunuch Xu really knows what I mean." Keep your hands and feet clean, don't let anyone see anything.”
Xu Wanhai smiled and said,"Don't worry, Little Master. No one will notice anything." The tail has been cleaned up." Seeing that I was exhausted, he quietly bowed and left.
Chun Liang Yuan was flying a kite in Upper Forest Park, but she lost her footing in the Green Lotus Pavilion, which was a hundred meters away. Cao Qinmo was the only one who had entered the Green Lotus Pavilion today, not to mention that the dead Chun Liang Yuan was still holding her personal jade pendant tightly in her hand!
Perhaps no one would have thought that Cao Qinmo would be stolen by a servant when she passed by Upper Forest Park. It was also difficult for Xu Wanhai to find such a person.
As for the motive for the murder, Zhen Huan and the others could only imagine it themselves. I believe they will find many good reasons.
Xuan Ling, oh Xuan Ling, I've finally come this far. If you knew the truth, would you hate me?
Chun Liangyuan wishes you a happy family in your next life, happy and peaceful for a lifetime.
That night.
Xuanling's edict had arrived. It was a message to the Ministry of Rites and a copy to the six palaces. Now that he has died, I am very sorry. In order to show that she was always virtuous and virtuous, she was granted the title of Chun Concubine…All funeral ceremonies were the same as those of noble concubines.”He also ordered that the coffin be moved to Consort Tai's tomb seven days later to be buried with Consort De, Consort Xian, and the concubines who had died early.
Cao Qinmo had been convicted of murdering the imperial concubine and had been banished to the cold palace. The custody of Empress Wen Yi was handed over to Consort Jing.
Cao Qinmo will eventually die. If Consort Hua and Zhen Huan don't do anything, I won't let her off either.
And Zhen Huan, what would you do if you lost everything?
This is just the beginning. This is my counterattack. Be it the Empress, Concubine Hua, or Zhen Huan, I hope you won't disappoint me!
Xuan Ling, I've always been pretending in front of you. I really don't know when I can be myself in front of you, even if you give me the simplest rejection.
