An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

The emperor said angrily: "When you were young, you could hit me whenever you wanted. Now that you have grown up and I am the emperor, you can still do whatever you want? Come here, Su Peisheng, tell me to go down and take care of you." The Queen Mother's Shoukang Palace has been sealed for three days, and no one can leave the palace without my permission."

The Queen Mother stared blankly at the Emperor, who was familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time. The child who had been holding her hand suddenly became disobedient and became uncontrollable. The Queen Mother suddenly felt a little panicked. She shook her head slowly, With a deep sigh, he slumped down on the bed and took Shen Meizhuang out.

Although the emperor issued a ban, how could the queen mother listen to his instructions? She issued the ban on the first day, and the next day, the queen mother took Aunt Fangruo and Aunt Zhuxi to the queen's palace. Then she sat down and asked the queen to find her. Here comes Mi'er.

Mi'er knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise her head. The Queen Mother asked her to raise her head. When she saw that she looked exactly like Concubine Hua, she shouted on the spot: "Where did you come from? The Nian clan has already slaughtered the whole family. , how did you escape?"

Mi'er was shocked, and immediately fell to the ground crying: "Empress Dowager, please forgive me, this slave is not from the Nian family. My father and mother both work as farmers from sunrise to sunset. I don't know what the Nian family is, but my family lives there." In a small village not far from the foot of Taihang Mountain."

The Queen Mother took a breath and said: "You are innocent, but how can you cover up this matter? The Ai family will not believe you if you say such a thing. Tell the Ai family the truth. Who sent you to the palace?" Here to seduce the emperor."

Aunt Zhuxi stepped forward and asked: "The Queen Mother is asking you something, please tell me quickly!"

Mi'er was shocked and stammered: "Back to the Queen Mother, the daughter is from Lijia Village at the foot of Taihang Mountain. Both her father and mother make a living by farming. The daughter married Guo Erding, a tofu seller in the village. The night after I gave birth to my daughter, my husband went to see a doctor. It was dark in the middle of the night and the mountain road was difficult to walk. He accidentally fell into a ravine. He often got up in the middle of the night to grind tofu and pick it out to sell early in the morning. He was originally infected with the wind and cold, so he fell like this. The person is gone." Mi'er said softly and softly, but there was no trace of tears in the corners of her eyes, as if she was talking about someone who had nothing to do with her.

The Queen Mother is a very hard-hearted person. She quickly grasped the key points of Mi'er's words, just like the mean mother-in-law in ancient times treated her daughter-in-law: "Look at how you can enter the palace based on this. The Queen recommends people to enter." Why don't you check her details when you are in the palace? When the Aijia saw this woman, what was her name? She was Mi'er, right! Mi'er Kefu, your ex-husband was a miserable man, and he married you and entered the family. How can such a man stay by the Emperor's side when he successfully killed your husband?"

The queen's face turned pale and she knelt down quickly. Mi'er was shocked and begged for mercy on the ground: "Please spare your life, Queen Mother. Please let me see the Emperor again and ask you to leave the palace. I am willing to take the child back to Taihang Mountain, please." The Queen Mother will be generous and let the children go."

The Queen Mother glanced at the child again and asked Jianqiu to pick the child up. She held the child in her arms herself. At this time, Shisan opened her eyes and saw the Queen Mother smiling happily and babbling. The Queen Mother sighed: "This child seems to be a lucky child, and he is also very cute."

Mi'er thought she had escaped. Seeing the Queen Mother relax, the Queen Mother pinched Thirteen's cheek and said, "Then choose one yourself. If you can save your child, you can commit suicide! Since you are here, Once you are in the palace, there is no reason to leave the palace."

Mi'er was so horrified that she froze in place. The queen asked Huichun to quickly find the emperor. Huichun ran around calling people to find the emperor, which alarmed many concubines in the palace.

There was a lot of discussion. An Lingrong happened to have returned to Yining Palace from the Imperial Medicine Department at this time. After hearing the news, he also walked out with Qin Sanyue. However, despite the Queen Mother's words, he did not dare to act rashly.

An Lingrong, Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang and others were near Jingren Palace, waiting for the outcome of this matter. Huichun rushed into Jingren Palace with the emperor, but the Queen Mother asked Jianqiu to open the gate of Jingren Palace. It was locked, and if anyone dared to open the door to let the emperor in, I would go to see him with his head.

The emperor asked Su Peisheng to find a ladder and climb over the wall. In a moment of panic, Su Peisheng failed to hold on while climbing the wall and fell off the city wall. The emperor called for someone to slam the door outside and almost fell. With a broken bone, Su Peisheng struggled to get up, crooked his waist and legs and opened the palace door.

The Emperor rushed in and saluted the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother turned away and ignored him, while Mi'er collapsed on the ground with a peaceful expression. The Emperor tremblingly reached out to check her breathing. Tragically, Mi'er had stopped. breathe.

The emperor took her still warm hand and pressed it tightly to his face, with tears still in his eyes. The queen mother and others snorted coldly and walked away.

The queen was so frightened that she fainted and fell unconscious.

With no expression on his face, the emperor ordered two eunuchs to carry Mi'er's body out.

Zhen Huan said softly: "Let's go back to Tangli Palace for a reunion! This Mi'er of unknown origin wanted to share the glory and wealth when she entered the palace, but unexpectedly she was so short-lived. The queen also wanted to send her to the throne to gain some favor in front of the emperor. Well, now the stall is ruined."

An Lingrong whispered: "Sister, this is a risky thing in itself. I didn't expect the Queen Mother to be such a terrifying person. The Emperor must be very sad."

An Lingrong thought, the emperor's resentment towards the queen mother had gained another level! The emperor was already extremely dissatisfied with the queen mother because of Longko's many affairs, and now that the queen mother was involved in the emperor's private affairs, Mi'er was sentenced to death.

The emperor seems to be able to concentrate on court affairs. He works non-stop day and night, either going to court or going to the Yangxin Hall to review the documents after returning from the court. I heard that the Queen Mother personally brought Aunt Zhuxi to remove dampness and fire. Tang Porridge went to visit the emperor, but the emperor ordered An Lingrong to go to the Yangxin Hall to sing Kunqu opera for the Queen Mother.

When An Lingrong stepped into the Yangxin Hall, she heard the Queen Mother say softly: "Xi'er, the Ai family is all for your own good. You see, not all kinds of women can be brought into the palace to be favored. , from now on, all the women brought into the palace will have to go through the inspection of the Ai family. Xi'er has never looked like this before, but now it is getting more and more bizarre. This Mi'er is destined to be a concubine. Fortunately, the Ai family found out It's early and we dealt with her in time, otherwise I don't know what trouble would have happened."

The emperor did not respond to the Queen Mother, but said to An Lingrong: "Libin, please sing a popular Kunqu opera to my mother-in-law! Let my mother-in-law be happy."

The Queen Mother's face softened and she said: "Xi'er, it would be great if you could understand the good intentions of the concubine. This is the first time I heard you call the concubine of the Ai family! Originally, the Ai family did not plan to come to listen to music today. Since it is Li Bin, then Just listen to the last song.”

An Lingrong gently lifted her lavender palace dress, took off the gold hairpin and silver beads on her head, tied up her long black hair with a hair rope, sang and danced softly, like the breeze blowing, her voice was clear and flowing, like a clear spring. , touched the heart directly, the gloomy color between the Queen Mother's brows gradually faded, her eyes were peaceful, and she was filled with pure joy. The Queen Mother said warmly: "Li Bin sang well, I will also give Li Bin a bowl of this porridge, and give it to her after I finish singing." Moisten your throat.”
