Chapter 47. Making trouble

Zhen Huan was sitting in Bitong Academy. When An Lingrong came in, she saw the beauty crying. The moonlight was full of broken beauty. She held a hairpin tightly in her hand, and tears fell on it drop by drop.

.

"Sister," An Lingrong stepped forward and called her name, "Okay, why did something like this happen suddenly?"

Zhen Huan choked and said: "After you left that day, Yu Yin knew that he would not live long, so he told me a lot..."

…

"Eldest sister, I know that I was very wrong. I listened to Cao Guiren's slander and separated from the eldest sister. It was also because of my petty nature. I was jealous of the eldest sister's favor and brought glory to the Zhen family. On the other hand, I have accomplished nothing. This

Only then do you have evil thoughts in your heart." Zhen Yuyin talked about her first meeting with Cao Guiren, "That day, I heard my eldest sister talking to the emperor about my father's cough, and I remembered that my mother could not just step into the Zhen family's door openly until she died. I felt sad for a while.

I was burning paper money in the imperial garden and was seen by Mr. Cao. I was panicked and she took out the excuse. However, I saw that she did not threaten me with this matter and only said to give me a chance to make a difference."

Zhen Yuyin burst into tears with regret: "I was confused by lard, and that's why I went astray step by step. Concubine Hua first gave me the Lost Soul Incense to use in my eldest sister's room, and then gave me the Jade Girl Powder to let me use it.

Take good care of your skin, and wait for the day when the emperor takes a fancy to me, and she will help me ask for a position. She also said that in this way, I can be as favored as the eldest sister. I listened to my heart and did it one by one, but

Only when I became a mistress did I realize that this road is so difficult." She talked about the days when she was favored and fell out of favor, "In the beginning, the emperor was still interested in me, but it was just an interest. I always went to bed with him.

, the emperor asked me all about the eldest sister, I was unwilling to do so, but had to follow the emperor's wishes. At that time, everyone thought that I was favored, treated me well, and flattered me, but then the emperor stopped favoring me, and everyone

I wish I could trample me into the mud, Songzhi next to Concubine Hua treats me like an animal, let alone other people."

"Ever since I returned to my eldest sister after being disfigured, not a day goes by that I don't regret it, but I am still stubborn and refuse to bow my head and admit my mistake to my eldest sister. Now that I know that I don't have much time left, I am afraid that if I don't say these words, I will not have the chance to grow together.

Sister said it." Zhen Yuyin knelt down to Zhen Huan, kowtowed and admitted her mistake, "Sister, I really know that I was wrong, but the matter has come to this, and I have no way out." She cried pitifully, with tears all over her face.

Tears, "Eldest sister, all this is my fault. I am willing to die. Please also ask eldest sister not to tell my father..."

…

"I should have seen that she had the intention to die at that time." Zhen Huan burst into tears, with strong hatred in her eyes, "Concubine Hua, I will definitely remember her!"

An Lingrong didn't know how to persuade her, so she patted Zhen Huan's back gently, sighed, and said, "I'm afraid the emperor will restore Concubine Hua's right to co-manage the Sixth Palace." Seeing Zhen Huan look over, he said again,

"I heard that the battle in the northwest was successful. Nian Gengyao defeated the enemy army and made great achievements. He will return to the court soon. The emperor must take his face into consideration no matter what, and give Concubine Hua a favor. After all, Concubine Hua

It has been almost a year since the power to co-administer the Sixth Palace was removed."

Zhen Huan wiped her tears: "It would be nice if we could delay it a little longer." She calculated carefully, "Tomorrow is the Zhongyuan Period, which is unlucky, and then it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then it will be the New Year's Eve, and it is not appropriate to delay the New Year.

Next year, time will allow us to plan slowly." Zhen Huan looked at An Lingrong and said, "Sister Rong, I have to take care of Yu Yin's funeral affairs, and it is inconvenient to talk to the emperor too much. I have to bother you to talk to the emperor.

Talk about it."

"Okay, I understand." An Lingrong nodded in agreement.

Back at Xinghua Village, An Lingrong thought for a whole night about how to speak to the emperor.

"What are you thinking about, little master?" Daukou came in with water and saw An Lingrong sitting on the couch in a daze, so she couldn't help but ask.

An Lingrong thought for a while and asked her: "Doujiao, if there is one thing that you don't want to let happen, and the person who can decide this matter is someone you respect and love, what would you say?"

Daukou blinked: "I will definitely tell my mistress directly."

An Lingrong was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You little girl." This meant that the person she respected and loved was herself.

"I just feel that since we are loved ones, it is best to speak openly and clearly to avoid guessing and misunderstandings." Dou Kao is young and has a simple mind, but she speaks clearly and clearly.

Dill happened to hear these remarks when she came in, and immediately patted her, looked at An Lingrong and said, "The young master is thinking about how to talk to the emperor about Concubine Hua tomorrow, right?" Seeing An Lingrong nodding,

She came up with an idea, "This servant seems to like the Emperor very much. Regarding this matter, I might as well express my true feelings to the Emperor."

What's on your mind?

An Lingrong fell asleep full of thoughts.

In the afternoon of the next day, the emperor ordered An Lingrong to serve as his imperial attendant. An Lingrong took the food he had prepared early in the morning and walked all the way to Qinzheng Hall.

"I went to Wan Guiren's place to have breakfast this morning and saw her crying so sadly." The emperor sat cross-legged on the couch, lowered his head and sighed, not in high spirits. "I'm very upset. Come over and rub it for me."

rub."

An Lingrong put down the food box, took off his armor, took off his shoes and knelt down behind the emperor. The emperor lay down, closed his eyes and took a nap.

He enjoyed this kind of comfortable time very much. Whenever he had a headache, the emperor liked to lie on An Lingrong's lap, listen to her singing nursery rhymes, bathe in the sunshine, feel the strength of her fingers on her temples, and the fragrance emanating from her body.

, everything was just right, like a ball of warm water covering him from head to toe.

Very comfortable.

"Your Majesty did not sleep well today. Is there something on your mind?" An Lingrong looked at the time and saw that only half an hour had passed.

The emperor hummed and didn't get up. He just lay there and asked An Lingrong: "There is something that is very difficult for me and I want to ask you what you mean." Seeing An Lingrong blinking in confusion, he said again, "I am interested in replying."

What do you think about Concubine Hua co-managing the Sixth Palace?"

An Lingrong didn't expect the emperor to ask such a straightforward question. He was stunned for a moment before he realized: "The emperor can decide this matter, why do you need to ask my concubine?"

"When we had breakfast today, I asked Lady Wan, and she talked a lot, and I thought it was very reasonable." The emperor played with An Lingrong's fingers and said casually, "But I still want to ask.

you."

"Your Majesty, I don't like Concubine Hua." An Lingrong pouted slightly and said in a temper.

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, not expecting to hear this answer. He sat up and asked seriously: "Why don't you like her?"

"Why do I like her?" An Lingrong tilted her head and asked the emperor, "When I first entered the palace, I thought I would be favored by her and tried to please her in every way. As a result, I almost died. And the goose that day. The fragrance in the pear tent..." An Lingrong pursed her lips suddenly to stop her words, and muttered, "I don't like her anyway."

"Okay." Thinking of the love that day, the emperor nodded with understanding, "I will be returning to the capital in a while. I was thinking about all the complicated things, and then I remembered this matter. In this case, I can only let Queen, please take more trouble." After saying that, he smiled and pinched An Lingrong's face, "My Rong'er rarely gets so angry, she is so lovable."

An Lingrong blushed: "Your Majesty made fun of me again." Then he said, "Sister Mei is in good health. Why not, Your Majesty, let her help the Empress with the trivial matters? My elder sister was doing it very well before. .”

The emperor hesitated.

Originally, he wanted to suppress Concubine Hua and let Shen Meizhuang learn how to co-manage the Sixth Palace. Now that Nian Gengyao has made great contributions to pacifying the northwest, if he skips Concubine Hua and lets Shenmeizhuang co-manage the Sixth Palace, he is afraid that it will cause trouble. Unnecessary trouble. He frowned and said: "Hui Gui suddenly had a miscarriage. I asked Dr. Zhang that in order to avoid the root cause of the disease, it is better to sit for a month."

This must be what Sister Mei asked for herself.

An Lingrong felt relieved and just smiled and said: "The Queen is familiar with the affairs of the Sixth Palace, so I don't think anything will go wrong."

"That's what Mr. Wan Gui said." The emperor patted An Lingrong's hand and sat up, "What delicious food did you bring me?"

"The emperor said yesterday that Babao Sweet Cheese was too sweet, so I specially made two salty snacks today." An Lingrong stood up, opened the food box, and took out a plate of exquisite shortbread cookies, each one small and exquisite, no more than a copper coin. A little bigger, but delicately printed with patterns, she twisted one and brought it to the emperor's mouth, "This is the golden frost cake newly made by my concubine. Inside is minced pork breast, with a bite of jelly embedded in it." Good soup, delicious and crispy in one bite, what do you think of it, Your Majesty?"

The emperor ate two in a row and couldn't help but nod: "Rong'er's craftsmanship is really excellent." After saying that, he took the soup bowl handed over by An Lingrong and took a bite of the smooth bean curd. "I always come in the afternoon." I’m all thinking about taking this bite, but I’m afraid I’ll tire you out.”

"If the emperor eats happily, I will be happy. How can I feel tired?" An Lingrong looked at the emperor with her chin in hand, smiling with crooked eyebrows.

For a time, the affection was strong.

When Concubine Hua learned that there was no hope of restoring her right to co-manage the Sixth Palace, she became furious again, and was finally persuaded by Songzhi: "My Majesty, don't be angry. Since the Emperor intends to restore your power to co-manage the Sixth Palace, I'm not afraid of waiting a little longer. Wan Guiren can obstruct me once, but how can I obstruct it twice? Now that the general has won battles one after another this year, it's too late for the emperor to be happy, and naturally he feels sorry for the empress."

"So what if the Emperor doesn't allow me to co-administer the power of the Sixth Palace this time? If the Emperor does allow it this time, it's probably because of my brother rather than me." Concubine Hua has been sleeping with the Emperor for the past few days, thinking that she and the Emperor only have affection. Feeling dissatisfied, he became happy after being persuaded with a few words, "The emperor did not allow it, so he was so kind to me. It is really because of the deep love between husband and wife for many years, rather than the care of a foreign relative."

The more she thought about it, the more she felt so, and Concubine Hua slowly smiled.

This incident was like a pebble falling into the water, only ripples appeared, and then everything calmed down again, as if it had never happened. It was not as eye-catching as Zhen Yuyin's death.

After learning that Zhen Yuyin accidentally fell into the water and drowned, Xia Dongchun was so frightened that she couldn't sleep well for several days. She often dreamed that she was being assassinated, and the child in her belly was not saved. Within a few days, her face became haggard and she fell into a trance.

Xia Dongchun thought of An Lingrong's kindness to her, but the queen was really very strict with her. She couldn't even see cats and dogs, let alone see people, let alone go out by herself.

"Little Master, you eat more slowly, don't go in so fast, be careful of choking." Shuanghua looked at Xia Dongchun's body worriedly, and couldn't help but persuade her, "When Hui Gui was two months pregnant, her body size

You haven’t grown much yet, but you have put on some weight, little master. If you give birth to full term, you may not be able to regain your figure.”

"But I just feel so hungry that I can't help but want to eat." Xia Dongchun's mouth was so stuffed that her words were slurred.

Maple Leaf said at the side: "The young master is eating for two people now, what's wrong with adding more? Maybe he is just a fat boy."

Shuanghua frowned tightly, but she couldn't say anything else. Maple Leaf was assigned by the palace to serve the young master. Looking at her and Jianqiu's enthusiasm on weekdays, she was afraid that she was someone trained by the Queen.

After a hearty meal, Xia Dongchun leaned on the couch with her round belly in hand, looked at the square sky outside the window, and suddenly became sad: "When will the emperor lift my confinement? I am so bored in the palace every day.

I'm going to be bored." She couldn't help but think of Zhen Yuyin, and a chill ran down her spine. After sending Maple Leaf out, she quietly said to Shuanghua, "I know Mr. Rong Gui often talks to you in private, please think of a way to deliver the news.

, let Ronger come and see me."
