Chapter 19.Sisters

In Broken Yuxuan, Zhen Huan applied ice cubes to An Lingrong's face to reduce swelling, and Shen Meizhuang took ointment and applied it carefully on her.

"But look carefully, Concubine Li is still wearing armor, luckily she didn't hurt her face." Shen Meizhuang looked at it again and again, breathed a sigh of relief, and cursed angrily, "You too, well, you said such things to provoke me. Whatever she does, Li Bin is a straight-hearted person. If you mock her in words or in plain words, she will definitely want to teach you a lesson."

An Lingrong smiled slightly: "Sister Mei, don't be angry, am I okay?"

"And I said, luckily it's okay. If there is a scar on the face, who do you want to cry to?" Zhen Huan stretched out her finger and poked An Lingrong's head hard, but she was also frightened for a while.

An Lingrong just smiled. She calculated Li Bin's movements accurately and dodged half a step. Li Bin's armor could not scratch her face.

However, after something like this happened, the three of them lost their previous vague alienation and became close to each other.

Shen Meizhuang spoke and looked at Zhen Huan: "Huan'er, don't blame me for saying selfish things. If you are not the one who is favored in the palace, there will be someone else. If there is someone else, I would rather it be you. Others may harm me, but You don't know how. So, although I am envious of you being favored, I am not jealous." She sighed, "Although what sister Rong said today was a bit reckless, it was rough and unreasonable. Favor is just based on one's ability. , If I am favored, it is only because of my importance in the emperor's heart. If I am not favored, I will not blame others at all. What Concubine Hua said today is just a provocation to the three of us sisters."

Shen Meizhuang stood up, while An Lingrong and Zhen Huan sat cuddling together and listened to her slowly: "There are so many people in the palace, and the only ones you can trust are those closest to you. Huan'er, you and I grew up together, Sister Rong entered the palace on the same day as us and lived with you in Suiyuxuan. This is a God-given fate. The three of us should be the closest people in this palace."

An Lingrong was slightly moved in his heart.

In the past life, Shen Meizhuang always had some distance from her, but today, for some reason, she was allowed to say these heart-to-heart words.

An Lingrong didn't know that Shen Meizhuang was wary of her in her previous life just because of her inconsistency. Women from big families had long seen that they behaved one way on the outside and another behind the scenes. In the previous life, An Lingrong In front of Shen Meizhuang, Lingrong can be said to be a master of his own profession.

Today, although what An Lingrong said was a little impulsive, the truth touched Shen Meizhuang and made her believe that An Lingrong was honest and upright in his work and was a person with whom she could have a close friendship.

Zhen Huan pulled An Lingrong to stand up and said with bright eyes: "In that case, we will sworn sworn brothers here today. Sister Mei is the oldest and sister Rong is the youngest. In the future, sisters will be worthy of each other and I will trust you sincerely."

sincere?

The most intolerable thing in this palace is sincerity.

An Lingrong lowered her eyes slightly: "Sister Wan..."

"I know what you are going to say." Zhen Huan looked at An Lingrong seriously, "It is because the deep palace is dangerous that we must trust each other sincerely and support each other so that others cannot harm us. Sister Rong, it is difficult to support a lonely tree. , Sanmu firmly established, for ourselves and our family, we not only have to live, but also live well, don’t you think so?”

An Lingrong's heart was touched, and a surge of sour tears welled up. She choked with sobs and nodded: "Okay, from today on, the three of us are sisters."

Shen Meizhuang smiled tenderly and wiped An Lingrong's tears with her handkerchief.

Dill and Caiyue both looked at each other and smiled, but Huanbi, with a gloomy face, hid himself in the dim light.

The story of Concubine Li slapping An Lingrong finally reached the emperor's ears.

After hearing Su Peisheng's reply, the emperor's hand that was criticizing the book immediately paused, and his brows furrowed slightly. There was no attack immediately, but when it was time to turn over the cards in the evening, the eunuch in the respect room presented the green-headed card, and the emperor looked at Concubine Li coldly. He had a stern face and didn't say a word, but the aura emanating from his body made even Su Peisheng shudder.

"Ouch, why is this Empress Li's sign covered with dust? Take it back and make a new one for the next two days. Don't let the emperor turn over the sign as it is brought here." Su Peisheng bravely stretched out his hand to take Li's sign. He picked up the concubine's green card and threw it aside, deliberately telling the eunuch in the guest room to listen.

The eunuch held up the green sign and lowered his head, but his eyes were thoughtful, and he understood what Su Peisheng meant after a while.

The Emperor acquiesced to Su Peisheng's actions and the punishment of Concubine Li. He raised his hand and rubbed Wan Guiren's sign for a long time, and finally picked up Concubine Qi's sign and turned it over.

The sky turned dark, and Zhou Ninghai, who was next to Concubine Hua, suddenly came to Broken Yuxuan to summon her.

"Mr. Shen, Concubine Hua invites you to come to Yikun Palace to listen to the training." Zhou Ninghai bowed slightly and said in a deep voice, "My little master, it is easy to find the slave. Please hurry up and prepare to leave with the slave, so as not to be late. Make the mother-in-law angry."

Shen Meizhuang put away his smile slightly: "I know, you go and wait outside first."

"I'm afraid that what happened this morning has angered her and will embarrass my sister." Zhen Huan looked worried.

However, Shen Meizhuang patted her hand and comforted her: "It's not a big deal, I'm used to it. The emperor allowed me to learn about the Sixth Palace. I'm learning to read the account books recently, and Concubine Hua is teaching me." Speaking of this. A smile appeared on her face, "She used the emperor's will to train me, but she also really taught me a lot of things. Concubine Hua has the power to co-manage the Sixth Palace, but I was appointed by the emperor. No matter how uncomfortable she feels, she has to endure it if she wants to find someone who wants to share her power."

An Lingrong said softly: "Sister Mei said it so lightly. With Concubine Hua's temperament, she will never let her learn from it. She must be making things difficult for her." She reached out and shook Shen Meizhuang's hand hard. "She has been invading the harem for many years. Although she is now the co-president of the Sixth Palace, the queen is in poor health. She is already a legitimate co-council and has the power. How can she allow others to covet it? It is natural for my sister to have the emperor as a guarantee, but... After all, we are walking on the edge of a knife."

Zhen Huan also nodded.

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Shen Meizhuang knew that the emperor valued her mostly because she was dignified and prudent, and he wanted her to learn to be a housekeeper because of this. Being favored is good, but in the end It will not last long and will dissipate with the passage of time. Only power is something that can be firmly held in one's hands.

After seeing off Shenmeizhuang, Zhen Huan talked to An Lingrong for a while.

An Lingrong reminded her: "Sister, have you paid attention to Yu Guan's women recently?"

"You asked Daukou to remind me, I will remember it all." Zhen Huan said with a smile, then she smiled, "Liu Zhu went to inquire about it, and heard that she was alone in Yinghua Palace, and even the palace maid who was close to her was sent away. , she knelt in front of the Buddha and cursed me every day. It’s ridiculous to say that the Buddha is so compassionate, how could he listen to her curses? I have always acted with a clear conscience, and even if I try to curse, it won’t be effective.”

"My sister doesn't know whether the curse is effective or not, but people's hearts are unpredictable. I'm afraid she has already placed someone next to her." An Lingrong was about to tell Zhen Huan about Huasui's story, but she heard footsteps coming from outside.

, and then the emperor's voice rang.

That bright yellow light slowly walked into the east side hall, and the emperor walked in: "What are you two sisters whispering together? Let me listen."

An Lingrong and Zhen Huan quickly bowed down and said, "See you, Your Majesty."

The emperor walked to the couch and raised his hand to let people get up.

Zhen Huan and An Lingrong looked at each other, as if asking her if she wanted to talk, but An Lingrong raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said angrily to the emperor: "How can the emperor hear the private gossip that my daughter's family talks about!"

The emperor was immediately happy, but when his eyes fell on her face, his smile suddenly froze. He reached out and pulled An Lingrong to his side to take a closer look: "Why is the swelling so severe? Didn't the imperial doctor come and take a look?"

Zhen Huan felt relieved when she saw that the emperor only looked at An Lingrong. She bowed and bowed before finding an excuse to leave. She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. It was clear that the emperor before her was all about her, so now she has to change her mind.

If you love someone, is this the love of an emperor?

After Zhen Huan left, Dill and Su Peisheng also withdrew with a wink.

"It's just a trivial matter. The imperial doctor is always working. The emperor is used to making a fuss out of a molehill." An Lingrong sat next to the emperor and brought his face close to the emperor to see, "Your Majesty, take a look. Apart from some redness and swelling, I am also injured.

Already?"

The girl's fragrance seeped in bit by bit, all-pervasive. An Lingrong did not apply any scented lotion today, but the emperor still lost his soul for a moment. He reached out and pinched her waist, pulled her close together, and buried his head in her neck.

He took a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." An Lingrong softened and raised her hand to touch the Emperor's chest.

It's this sound again.

The emperor felt relaxed all over. He listened to An Lingrong's voice, which was like an addiction. It penetrated into his heart densely, alternating back and forth between reality and illusion. He had a hazy dreamy feeling. Compared with looking similar,

The face and the identical voice seemed to haunt him even more.

In the dream, I am the old person, and when I wake up, I am the new person.

The crimson-colored bed made An Lingrong's skin as white as snow. She huddled shyly in the emperor's arms, her innocence crushed and pure desire intertwined. This scene made people's blood surge. The fit of the body seemed to resonate with the soul, and the words "Your Majesty"

"It was like a numb shiver, rising straight from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, an indescribable feeling of joy.

(Click, turn off the lights)

The night is getting darker and love affairs are gradually dying down.

Su Peisheng's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, Shen Guiren has fallen into the water!"

The lights in the broken jade pavilion were hurriedly turned on, revealing more deeply. The emperor held down An Lingrong, who was about to get up, and only took Zhen Huan, who got up and was waiting outside after hearing the noise, to Xianfu Palace.

After a sleepless night, Zhen Huan dragged her body back tiredly until dawn.

An Lingrong hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is Sister Mei?"

Zhen Huan patted her hand comfortingly: "When I came back, Sister Mei had already woken up. The imperial doctor also checked her last night. There was nothing serious in her body. She just choked on water and was frightened. She had to take good care of herself for two days.

.”

"Sister, please rest quickly. I'm going to see Sister Mei."

Zhen Huan pulled her and warned: "Please comfort Sister Mei, she is not good at water, and what happened last night really frightened her." After a pause, she added, "I will wait for you to come back for the rest.

Discuss with you."

An Lingrong nodded and walked towards Xianfu Palace with Da Kao.

On the way, I saw groups of guards hurriedly walking towards Yikun Palace. After asking about it, I found out that the person who fell into the water at Shenmeizhuang last night was in Qianli Pond near Huifei Yikun Palace. His Majesty He reprimanded the guards of Yikun Palace for their poor performance of their duties. This time, Guiren Shen fell into the water for nearly a cup of tea, but no one noticed it. He ordered a new group of guards to be replaced and sent to Yikun Palace.

"No, this servant went to select the guards to take to Yikun Palace early in the morning. As a result, Concubine Hua was not satisfied with all of them, so she asked the servant to pick another one." Xiao Xiazi said with a wry smile, "This is already the third time. Approved."

An Lingrong smiled understandingly and calmly stuffed a jade ring into Xiao Xia Zi's hands: "Eunuch Xia, thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Xiazi is Su Peisheng's only apprentice, half a son, and he is used to following behind and receiving gifts from time to time. However, the jade ring An Lingrong gave has excellent water quality and is very suitable for young girls. He couldn't help but feel moved. , thank you a thousand times.

Walking into the Xianfu Palace, I met the concubine Jing. An Lingrong bowed before entering the Cunju Hall.

Shen Meizhuang was able to sit up and drink the medicine. When he saw An Lingrong coming in, he raised his head and smiled at her, and was about to finish the medicine.

The cardamom man next to An Lingrong wrinkled his nose, stepped forward and took the medicine bowl, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it carefully: "Shen Guiren, you cannot drink this medicine."

Shen Meizhuang's pupils shrank: "What?"

It’s so difficult to write about sleeping in bed...
