Chapter 23. Haunted
Author: There is a rabbit in the south
"Empress Hua, do you think of Xu's position as a concubine?" An Lingrong asked again in surprise.
Concubine Hua raised her lips, and before she could laugh, An Lingrong immediately threw down her words: "But the consort is consecrated and consort is always following the imperial edict of the empress dowager. The empress is a little bit too loud and too utterly."
Concubine Cao's face immediately changed: "Sister Rong, this is so presumptuous!"
An Lingrong raised her eyes and looked at Hua Fei with a smile.
Hua Fei looked at An Lingrong who dared to look directly at her, calmed down a little bit, and gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "An Lingrong, I underestimated you. When you were around me that day, I tried to please me.
, I didn't realize that you are such a scheming and scheming person." Hua Fei stood up, approached An Lingrong step by step, and said almost like she was close to her, "The future is long, I want to see if you can be in the queen.
What is your life under your hands?"
"Then please wait and see. I will live well in this palace." An Lingrong accepted Concubine Hua's declaration of war, which was considered to have officially broken her face. Before leaving, she said with a smile, "
When Eunuch Zhou came to pass the message, he said that the Empress thought another piece of material was very suitable for the concubine. The Empress thought it was too fancy, so she should keep it for the people next to her.”
Behind him, there was a sound of porcelain falling to the ground. An Lingrong stood in the yard, looked up at the dazzling sunshine, and stepped out of Yikun Palace step by step.
In Xianfu Palace, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang were still looking for it.
"Sister Mei, since we entered the palace, we have been careful and never dared to offend others. We have to live safely in the palace. Why is it so difficult?" Zhen Huan thought about Concubine Hua's usual behavior, and the more she thought about it, the more she became, the more worried she became,"
I don’t know how Sister Rong was troubled by her in Yikun Palace!”
"No one hurts the tiger's will, and tigers harm people's hearts." Shen Meizhuang was also frowning, "In this palace, we are always willing to let it go, but they want to take our lives."
"My sister Rong is right. If you just give in to others in the palace, you can only endure the blame. As a result, the best defense is attack. Sister Mei, we can no longer be as patient as before." Zhen Huan said
What Shen Meizhuang said to her that day, "The open and secret struggle in the palace has never stopped. Since we have stepped into this whirlpool, we have to fight. Even if Concubine Hua is the dominant family in this palace, we cannot shake her position, but we must
Only by resisting can you gain a way out for yourself.”
Shen Meizhuang fell into deep thought and said with emotion: "Rong'er sees it longer than you and me. I just think that the Huafei family is in great power and should not be enemies, but I never thought that whether it is an enemy is not my fault.
If you can decide, once you are favored but not under her control, you will be her enemies. She wants to get rid of it quickly, but I still want to do it step by step, waiting for one day to be evenly matched with her." She sighed
I sighed, whether it was to sigh for my innocence or my stupidity, "Huan'er, I feel more and more that it is the right thing to be sisters with Rong'er."
Seeing the change in Shen Meizhuang's name, Zhen Huan nodded solemnly.
She always felt that An Lingrong was not a person in the pond. Such a person could only be an ally, not an enemy.
On the day Yu died, the setting sun spilled down like blood. An Lingrong stood outside the cold palace gate for a long time until it was almost dark before waiting for Concubine Cao to come out of it.
"Thank you for your hard work in Sister Cao, I have put a lot of effort into appeaseing Yu and Lipin for Concubine Hua?" An Lingrong stepped forward and took Guiren Cao's hand warmly, "It's getting late, so why not go to my place?"
Sit?"
Guiren Cao had just said something, but now he had no strength to shirk responsibility with An Lingrong, and directly rejected her.
"Then let's go all out." An Lingrong was not angry and insisted on following Guiren Cao.
Concubine Cao could not do anything, so she could only let her follow him.
As soon as he took a few steps, Xiao Xiazi ran out of the cold palace. Yan Dao Yu was already dead, and rushed to report to the emperor. Guiren Cao couldn't help but sighed.
"Empress Hua must have been very angry recently. In order to block Lipin's mouth, my sister promised her a lot of benefits, right? For example, let her stay in the cold palace with peace of mind. When the gust of wind passes, the empress will definitely find another way.
Pick her out, or something." An Lingrong's tone was calm, but she hit the mind of Concubine Cao. She couldn't help but smile, "Pin Li is really stupid. No one of the concubines who have always entered the cold palace
She actually believed this promise when she could come out in a hurry."
Concubine Cao couldn't help but look ugly: "If my sister comes to mock me, there is no need. The Empress is angry this time. If I hadn't stopped me for two points, my sister might not have been able to live so well in the near future."
"Sister Cao, I feel sorry for you." An Lingrong smiled and grabbed the hand of Concubine Cao and said in a gentle voice, "There are not many children who can be raised in the palace, except for Concubine Qi's third prince, only sister's
Princess Wen Yi was raised by my side. I know that according to my sister's position, I was not qualified to raise the princess. It was just that my sister was dying and gave birth to Princess Wen Yi for a lifetime. The emperor forgives her, and Hua Fei helps her sister everywhere.
When he spoke, the princess was kept growing up by his side. My sister was grateful to Concubine Hua, so she was always loyal to her. Even though she suffered a lot of grievances, she never had any thoughts on her side."
Guiren Cao was moved and his words became softer: "My sister was clear-minded, but she felt ashamed of herself."
"I understand my sister, but I am really worried about my sister. For Wen Yi, my sister has to remind her. "An Lingrong took the opportunity to say, "Concubine Hua is not reliable. She left Wen Yi in Yikun Palace.
After all, it was for herself rather than for her sister and Wen Yi. She had no children herself, and she just wanted to hold a child in her hand as her own capital. My sister's kind heart should be considered more for Wen Yi!"
"I don't know what you said, but Concubine Hua has a family behind him and is extremely powerful. How can I resist it? Even though Concubine Hua has selfish intentions, she has indeed loved Wen Yi very much over the years, and I am already very content.
"Guru Cao was unmoved. She had been in favour of Concubine Hua for so many years. Although she was wronged, she also gained a lot of benefits. It was not something that An Lingrong could provoke in just a few words.
An Lingrong was not anxious and said lightly: "Yes, General Nian seems to have made great contributions recently. He has worked hard and made great contributions."
She said the last four words very lightly, but they fell into the ears of Concubine Cao, like thunder.
"Sister, you..."
"Sister, Shauyuxuan is here, I'll go back first." An Lingrong seemed not to hear the voice of Concubine Cao, and let go of his hand with a smile, "If my sister gets empty in the future, she can bring Princess Wen Yi to Shauyuxuan.
Sitting there, Guiren Wan and I both like children very much.”
Concubine Cao opened her mouth and said nothing, watching An Lingrong's figure disappear at the door of Shattered Yuxuan.
She suddenly felt exhaustion sweeping over like a tide.
Before she could walk away, there was a burst of tiny footsteps behind her.
Dill trotted to catch up with the steps of Concubine Cao, and after bowing, he said, "My little master sent me to say to Concubine Li, who is timid and afraid of ghosts, is better to make her crazy than promises to comfort her.
Finish the matter." After a pause, Dill said again, "My little master said that he really got along with the nobles. This matter is only considered a private friendship with the nobles."
Guiren Cao suddenly felt enlightened: "Thank you little master for me."
Dill smiled appropriately and bowed down.
In the evening, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan had a meal together, and after dinner, they drank tea and enjoyed the moon in the yard, chatting at home.
"I don't know how the emperor is in the suburbs. It's getting hotter this day, and there are more mosquitoes and flies. The suburbs are not as good as the palace, so everything is not ready. Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi didn't follow him, and I don't know who is by the emperor's side.
Serving." Zhen Huan lay on the rattan chair, looking at a crescent moon hanging on the sky, and said sadly.
"Sister, don't worry, the emperor will come back in a few days." An Lingrong twisted half a piece of pastry and ate slowly, "Liu Zhu's craftsmanship is really good. This Taishi cake is sweet but not greasy, and the divine beside me
None of Luo and Cardamom knows these things, Xiao Yinzi's skills are better than theirs."
Xiao Yinzi smiled humbly from the side.
Zhen Huan glanced at him, then turned to An Lingrong and said, "I can't beg the emperor to come that day. I've been reminded of these days, but I feel much more decent."
An Lingrong just smiled and said something else: "Speaking of this rattan chair is also made of a small seal. What do you think of it?"
"It's shaking, it's leisurely." Zhen Huan said, lying on the rattan chair and shaking it twice, laughing with caution, "Let the little seal tuck another one in the warehouse, and wait until it changes to Sister Mei'er's body tomorrow
Well, let her come and sit down too.”
An Lingrong was about to answer when a shrill scream suddenly echoed in the harem.
"There's a ghost———"
An Lingrong and Zhen Huan were both shocked.
Zhen Huan listened carefully and then guessed, "It seems that it was the voice of noble man Fu Cha?" After pausing, he said, "What did she shout? Is there a ghost?"
An Lingrong lowered his eyes and covered the emotions in his eyes, and echoed: "I can't hear it seriously, it seems like I'm shouting. Xiao Yinzi, you and Xiao Yunzi go out to see what's going on."
Xiao Yinzi and Xiao Yunzi responded and rushed out to inquire. Soon, Xiao Yunzi came back and reported: "Reply to the words of the two little masters, the nobleman Fucha fainted in the Imperial Garden."
"What?" Zhen Huan looked at An Lingrong in surprise, and the two looked at each other, "You lead the way ahead, let's go over and take a look."
An Lingrong Sui and Zhen Huan walked all the way to the Imperial Garden, and followed by several capable eunuchs.
Xiao Yinzi was guarding there, and saw that the noble man Fucha seemed to be greatly frightened and fainted in the sedan chair. There was no palace maid or eunuch beside him. Zhen Huan glanced at him and was right in front of the noble man Fucha.
A pool of blood was found under the shade of the tree, so I quickly opened my eyes.
"You guys, carry the noble Fucha back to Yanxi Palace first. Jinxi, you go and help with some things." An Lingrong ordered the eunuchs and instructed Cui Jinxi, and then said to Douko,
"You go to the Imperial Hospital to find the Imperial Doctor on duty today and let him go to the Yanxi Palace to see the nobleman Fucha."
Zhen Huan looked at Shichen: "It's late at night, it's hard to disturb the Empress anymore. Jinxi, you will stay in Yanxi Palace tonight to take care of the noble Fucha, and come back tomorrow morning."
Cui Jinxi and Cardamom both leaned over to receive the order.
The evening breeze blew, but it could not take away the heat of early summer. Zhen Huan was worried, holding An Lingrong's palm slowly oozing out of sweat. Although she did not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, the situation in front of her was so strange that she was afraid of
It is unpredictable to human hearts.
Only dill and Liuzhu were left behind. Huanbi looked at the portal and did not follow him, and the group of four hurriedly walked back.
But then another scream was screaming, which was even more shrill than the one who shouted just now. It seemed as if he was roaring with all his might, and it resounded throughout the harem. For a moment, the six palaces successively lit the lights.
"This sound came from the Leng Palace." An Lingrong looked towards the Leng Palace from afar and said in a deep voice.
Zhen Huan felt the force coming from her hands. She raised her eyes and fell into An Lingrong's eyes. Her pupils reflected her own face, and her mind became clearer: "Is it Lipin?" The moment she finished speaking, she suddenly
After reacting, she lowered her voice and said with a trembling trembling, "It's Hua Fei. Everyone said to the outside world that Lipin is crazy, but it's really crazy or fake crazy. Everyone knows that when she came out like this, she just wanted to confirm Li
The fact that the concubine was crazy enough to break the dilemma in front of her."
An Lingrong nodded: "Go back quickly, Dill, you go to Xianfu Palace and talk to Shen Guiren, so that she can have a clear idea. Judging from the situation tonight, I am afraid that it will be in the Queen's Palace tomorrow.
It will be a big fuss.”
Dill hurried there.
