An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

An Lingrong coaxed Princess Wen Yi outside the door, watching Cao Guiren, Qi Fei, and Fucha Guiren come out. Cao Guiren wanted to take Wen Yi away, and An Lingrong went to ask the emperor. Wen Yi was originally hanging on Concubine Duan. However, Concubine Duan was now weak and had too much time to take care of herself. The emperor was still angry and said angrily: "With Cao Guiren's appearance, how can he take care of Wen Yi? Send Wen Yi back to the Forbidden City immediately and leave it in the name of the queen. He will be raised by the Queen for the time being, and we will make a decision after the matter is fully investigated."

Just when the emperor said this, Cao Guiren was also holding Wen Yi's hand at the door, eagerly looking forward to taking Wen Yi back. When she heard that Wen Yi was going to be sent back to the Forbidden City and raised in the hands of the queen, she I couldn't help feeling sad and crying alone.

Su Peisheng stepped forward and forcibly took away Wen Yi and Cao Guiren's hands and put her on the carriage. Cao Guiren sobbed, angry and sad. Concubine Qi glanced at her coldly and said, "Good morning. Knowing today, why did you do it in the first place! If you help Concubine Hua and do all the bad things, you will get retribution sooner or later. I didn’t expect this retribution to come so quickly!"

Cao Guiren was about to rush forward, but Baojuan had quick eyes and quick hands. He stretched out his hands from behind and hugged Cao Guiren's waist and dragged him back a few meters. Only then did he stop the physical conflict between the two people. Concubine Qi coldly said nothing on her face. Without fear, she said quietly: "This Concubine Hua is still far away in the Taihang Mountains. Now Wen Yi is separated from your flesh and blood. No one is protecting you. You have to take good care of yourself!" Concubine Qi raised her eyebrows and ridiculed Cao Guiren. Ichiban and left happily.

An Lingrong ignored Cao Guiren and entered Concubine Duan's palace alone. At this time, she saw that the emperor was still visiting Concubine Duan in front of the bed. Concubine Duan's complexion was slightly better, and all the black breath on her face was gone. Only the body is left limp and limp,

Seeing that Wen Yi, who was accompanying her, was punished to the queen's banner again, Concubine Duan was disappointed and pleaded with the emperor: "Your Majesty, someone wants to use Wen Yi's hands to secretly harm my concubine. I beg your emperor not to investigate behind this. He is the manipulator. For Wen Yi's sake, the concubine will forgive this person. The child is innocent, and the concubine does not want to leave a shadow in Wen Yi's heart. Besides, when it comes to the harem, big things can be reduced to trivial matters. I’m sharing the emperor’s worries, ahem…”

An Lingrong stroked Concubine Duan's back and said, "Concubine Duan is so generous. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid it would be difficult to forgive her. Even though Wen Yi is young, she can tell who is good and who is evil."

The emperor let out a long breath to ease his depressed mood, and said slowly: "If all the concubines in the harem were like Duan Fei, how could so many things happen? I have something to do in advance, so I will entrust it to you. An noble man."

An Lingrong and Concubine Duan analyzed it one by one. If this witchcraft can make a person physically weak and lack mental strength, it will not lead to poisoning. However, after checking the inside and outside of Xianyue Pavilion, there was no trace. Find the source of the poison.

Concubine Duan gradually regained some strength, and Ji Xiang brought her some light porridge, saying that she wanted to eat it while it was still warm. As usual, Concubine Duan was tested for poison with a silver needle, and Concubine Duan was helped by An Lingrong. , sitting in front of the dressing table, she said that she had no appetite even looking at herself in the mirror with her messy hair.

An Lingrong combed her hair, put on hairpins and makeup, then sat down at the table elegantly and began to eat. After Jixiang was cleaning up the basin used by Concubine Duan to wash her hands at the table, she accidentally knocked over a round ornament around her neck and dropped it to the ground.

An Lingrong looked back when he heard the sound. Isn't this the dowry of Concubine Duan hanging around Wen Yi's neck? Why isn't it worn around Wen Yi's neck?

An Lingrong carefully put things back on the table. She was particularly cautious about valuable items.

Concubine Duan saw her doubts and responded: "Mr. An Gui, this collar is my dowry. Because I have no children myself, I am reluctant to give it to others. I have liked Wen Yi since I was a child. Every time I see her I laughed and gave it to her. Well, she didn’t wear it these two days because the weather was humid and her skin on her neck got acne, so she took it off and put it on again when it was ready.”

Wen Yi has acne? An Lingrong was even more puzzled. When Wen Yi was in her arms, she didn't look carefully or pay attention.

You will see that this collar has just fallen to the ground. It seems that white powdery stuff fell out from the interface. There was a muffled sound in An Lingrong's heart. Her sixth sense told her that she felt very bad. She wanted to confirm her thoughts, so she stood up and wordlessly put the collar in her hand and turned it over. , did not make a sound for a long time.

Concubine Duan was puzzled. After drinking a few mouthfuls of hot porridge, her stomach gradually felt warm. She turned sideways and asked, "What's the matter? Mr. An Gui, there is nothing wrong with this collar. It is my dowry. I It’s been kept in a box for a long time.”

An Lingrong brought the necklace to Concubine Duan, and then asked Jixiang to get a piece of rice paper. She shook the collar gently, and then gently pulled it with her nails, and white powdery substance floated down. An Lingrong When he got closer and smelled it, his face suddenly changed and he said: "Ms. Duan Fei, this contains purple aconite, which is highly toxic in small amounts. In large amounts, it can cause abdominal pain, vomiting, and even respiratory arrest."

Concubine Duan's face turned pale. She shook her hands and slowly picked up the collar. She smelled it again and again. When she smelled the smell, she suppressed the urge to feel nauseated. It was exactly the same reaction as when she was sick. She quickly called Jixiang to put the collar away. He moved to another place and said sadly: "What are these low-level things that have led to this? Fortunately, I just begged the emperor to let him go and stop pursuing it. In any case, I couldn't imagine that they would Start with my dowry."

Concubine Duan's love and kindness towards Wen Yi were in vain. Not only was she not appreciated, but she was also slapped in the face. It's strange that Concubine Duan was not angry or sad.

Concubine Duan secretly gritted her silver teeth and said with anxious eyes: "Who could have done it? It is said that the one who harms a man's heirs must be the queen, and the one who harms people's lives must be Concubine Hua, but this Concubine Hua is far away in the Taihang Mountains? Is it possible? Is it the trick of that bitch Cao Guiren? It’s so hard to guard against!”

An Lingrong pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Concubine Duan, I'll tell you the truth. Although Cao Guiren's usual behavior is hateful, Princess Wen Yi is her biological flesh and blood after all. This necklace is always hanging on Wen Yi's neck. Yes, this person wants to harm not only Concubine Duan, but also Princess Wen Yi! Or maybe he wants to use Princess Wen Yi's help to harm Concubine Duan, I don't think he is Cao Guiren."

Concubine Duan asked in confusion: "Who could it be? If I want to ask the emperor to investigate now, I can't even mention it. The source of this disaster is something I gave to Wen Yi myself. It's really hard to tell?" "Concubine Duan was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

An Lingrong said softly: "Mother Duan, I am just guessing. Think about it, if you and Cao Guiren have a dispute, who will benefit in the end? Look at who Princess Wen Yi falls to now. On your hands?”

Concubine Duan said dubiously: "An Guiren is referring to the Queen? But the Queen is far away in the Forbidden City? How can she take action at such a distance?"

An Lingrong nodded slightly and reminded: "Concubine Duan, although the Queen is far away in the Forbidden City and cannot take action herself, it does not mean that there are no people arranged by her in the Old Summer Palace!"
