An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

Zhen Yuandao's mentality was much better than Zhen Huan's, and the three of them talked about the matter again on the way back to the palace.

Shen Meizhuang said: "Huan'er, although Mr. Zhen was framed, according to what he said, this matter is very clear. It is not recommended to investigate such a matter. The other party's purpose has been achieved. This matter can't be clearer. , They didn’t want to take Master Zhen’s life, but they wanted him to suffer. Now that they all know that it was E Min who did it, has Huan’er figured out what to do?”

The softness on Zhen Huan's face gradually faded away, and a chilling air came over her whole body. She said with a cold look: "E Min must be full of doting on his own children, but he lost them for Qi Concubine. Reason, the harem dispute has actually escalated to a court battle. Qi concubine was stupid and didn’t expect that like father, like daughter. E Min targeted my father. Seeing my father in prison, Qi concubine didn’t know how much more. I was happy to hear Liu Zhu come back and say that Qi Bin sang for the first time while walking today. I had an impulse at that time and really wanted to kill Qi Bin, but I still had to endure it. I would not let her go easily. !”

Shen Meizhuang asked tentatively: "What about Huan'er, do you want to retaliate with tooth for tooth?"

Zhen Huan sneered and said: "Tit for tooth? That's just the lowest way. Sister An, what do you think?"

An Lingrong said attentively: "Two sisters, the emperor will not let Master Zhen off easily, nor will he embarrass Master Zhen unduly. The emperor cannot escape from this matter. The emperor once said specifically in front of Qi Concubine Because of the kindness of the two sisters, that time, the emperor originally announced that concubine Qi would sleep with him. Later, the emperor was busy with political affairs and asked concubine Qi to go back. Concubine Qi got angry and scolded Eunuch Su. Eunuch Su went to help her up, and she He almost pushed Eunuch Su to the ground. The emperor became even more angry. He directly told Eunuch Su that Qi's concubine treated you like this. You went to the royal room to remove her green card for a month. Eunuch Su did not dare to go. The emperor still threatened you. They forced him to go, but it was only later that Concubine Qi got angry, and then E Min sued Master Zhen."

An Lingrong continued: "The emperor deliberately provoked trouble, just because he wanted to use Sister Wan's father to check and balance Qi Bin's father."

Zhen Huan lightly frowned and said: "Sister An, it's a mutual check and balance. The emperor deliberately provoked the relationship, just like the relationship between Concubine Hua and the Queen, Concubine Qi and Guiren Cao. With such a troubled Emperor here, the palace It’s difficult to achieve peace here. The Queen Mother said that as long as the Emperor is equally concerned about the harem, there won’t be so many troubles.”

Shen Meizhuang echoed: "After you said it, the more I think about it, the more something is wrong. Now that I think about it carefully, do you still remember that Mi'er, who claimed to be the biological mother of Princess Shisan? After being brought into the palace, the emperor favored Mi one after another. My son, I was so pampered by heaven, but in the end, the queen couldn't bear it anymore and complained to the Queen Mother."

Zhen Huan said: "Oh, it's ridiculous. I saw the clues about this matter at the beginning. I thought that at that time, such an ordinary Mi'er just looked a little like Concubine Hua, but the emperor actually doted on her. I even took her to court with me, and we were tired of being together every day. The queen got angry, and even the concubines in the harem got angry. At that time, I didn’t like the emperor either.”

An Lingrong thought: "Now that Sister Mei said this, it is indeed true. The emperor dotes on Mi'er, which may not mean he really dotes on her."

Zhen Huan could not control her emotions and sighed: "The emperor's sophisticated and well-balanced control skills are used on a bunch of weak women like us. Isn't it a little overkill? The emperor dotes on Mi'er. Now it seems, isn't it? Do you want to put Mi'er to death? Otherwise, there is no point in holding an ordinary woman, whose origin was unknown at the time, in the palm of your hand. After Mi'er was given death by the Queen Mother, the emperor was not sad for a while? Oh, I was sad for three days.”

An Lingrong persuaded: "Sister Wan, the emperor has your petty thoughts, but in my opinion, the emperor is sincere to sister Wan and sister Hemei."

Zhen Huan let out a long sigh and said: "When Concubine Hua was alive, the Emperor was somewhat sincere to her, but what happened to Concubine Hua? We have all seen that the Emperor's sincerity and power of controlling life and death are nothing to him. There is no contradiction, he can love someone today, and tomorrow he can kill someone for the sake of the general trend, destroy her whole family, and then kill her nine clans. "

Shenmeizhuang sighed: "Huan'er, you are overthinking. We are not Hua Fei, nor are we arrogant and domineering. Huan'er's brother is loyal to the country and the court, and Huan'er's father is not Nian Gengyao, who cannot support troops. Rebellion, so the two cannot be compared, and Huan'er doesn't need to worry too much. It's just that Huan'er is with the emperor to please the emperor more. The emperor brought Huan'er to the court. He may just want us to I know that the emperor also has his own difficulties. If the emperor protects Master Zhen, he will offend many ministers. "

Zhen Huan's voice gradually lowered and she said: "Okay, I understand, sister Xinmei, sister Xin'an, let's all go back to the palace and have a good rest first. Huan'er doesn't want to think about anything. She just wants to go back to Tangli Palace and have a good sleep. Take a nap.”

......

An Lingrong gently knocked on the door of Cining Palace, and Jixiang welcomed her in. He eagerly ate the thousand-layer cake sent by An Lingrong and told her that Concubine Duan was getting ready to rest. It just so happens that if we come a little later, we will have to wait until tomorrow morning.

"Concubine Duan, are you feeling well lately? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? I brought another thousand-layer cake." An Lingrong said softly.

"It's Li Bin. My bones are the same as before, but I don't feel any pain when I sleep, thanks to you." Concubine Duan tasted the thousand-feuille cake.

While chatting, An Lingrong turned the topic to Zhen Yuandao, and explained in detail how E Min and Prince Dun colluded to frame Zhen Yuandao.

By the time she finished speaking, Concubine Duan had eaten all the piece of mille-feuille cake in her mouth.

Concubine Duan said softly: "Well, I've been thinking about this. I heard that you recommended a person to the emperor. What was his name? It seems pretty good."

An Lingrong's expression cleared up and he said: "Ms. Duan Fei, are you talking about Qin Xiaofeng? The one who was transferred to Huaiyuan County is now just a general judge in the capital. Even if he works hard, his achievements are remarkable. It's a pity that this Promotion has to be done step by step according to regulations.”

Concubine Duan nodded and said: "Yeah, that's enough. The smaller the official position, the less people will notice it. Let's work more on writing!"

An Lingrong thought carefully about Concubine Duan's words, but saw that she closed her eyes slightly, probably because she was tired, so she said: "Concubine Duan, I will go back and think about it carefully, so I won't disturb Concubine Duan's rest." ”
