An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Ever since Concubine Tian took the medicine every day, the emperor never mentioned punishing Concubine Tian again, but he did not lift the house arrest for Concubine Tian either. He just left her as if he didn't remember this person.

However, Fu Cha Fuldun of the previous dynasty would not forget his daughter. He always believed that Concubine Tian would not do anything to murder the royal heir, so he kept pleading for his daughter, hoping that the emperor would thoroughly investigate the matter.

However, Lingrong had already completed the verification for the emperor, and the emperor did not think much about it. He just threw the evidence away and shut Fucha's mouth.

In fact, the emperor was not without other evidence. He had been investigating the cause of the Empress Dowager's death. Xia Qian was of some use this time, as he found out that Concubine Tian bribed Li Si'er and sent her into the palace.

However, Li Si'er was already dead, and the emperor could not find out what she had done to cause the empress dowager's death, so he sent people to capture Sang'er, who was beside Concubine Tian. However, they even broke Sang'er's fingers and did not ask him a single question about the murder of the empress dowager.

This servant did not reveal any information, but made the emperor feel that the matter was not that simple. However, he checked again and again, but could not get any results from the imperial physician.

All the imperial doctors who treated the empress dowager said that she was too old and had an acute illness from which she could not recover for a while, and eventually she died of multiple illnesses at the same time.

However, before Zhu Xi died, he did say that when Li Si'er was treating the empress dowager, he would not allow anyone else to follow her into the bedroom, but there would always be a few imperial doctors following her, and Zhu Xi did not insist on following her at that time.

But there was one time when Li Si'er went in by herself, and it was very likely that she harmed the Queen Mother that time. But Zhu Xi did not know how she did it.

It’s a pity that Li Si’er died completely and all his family members had died long ago. Even if the emperor wanted to investigate, he would not find anything.

Although the investigation encountered obstacles at every turn, the emperor knew that this matter was closely related to Concubine Tian, ​​and the hatred of murdering her mother was irreconcilable, so the emperor was unwilling to spare her life.

But they could only punish her by confining her to the house in the name of the queen and the crown prince, and finally use some poison to make her die without anyone noticing.

Now that Concubine Tian takes medicine every day, the emperor can see that her health is getting worse day by day, and the hatred in his heart has barely dissipated a little.

Ling Rong didn't know how much the emperor had found out, but she had some confidence in her methods. In addition, the emperor had been relying on her for a while, so there was no sign that he had found out anything about her.

Fortunately, He Anming is not in the palace now, otherwise Ling Rong would really be worried that he would not be able to bear the punishment and give himself away.

After all, the ointment used to hypnotize the empress dowager was provided by Lingrong. If it were to be discovered, the emperor would definitely suspect her, and she might be the one who would lose her life.

Now that the Queen has passed away, Concubine Tian has the Emperor to help her deal with things, and Lingrong's life is much better now than before.

Now, as long as Gongding is married off in three months, Lingrong can resume her peaceful life and concentrate on choosing suitable wives for the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince.

But it was not easy to have a peaceful life in the harem. After handling the queen's funeral, the emperor fell ill, and even fell ill when he stayed overnight in Changchun Palace.

Concubine Qi finally "snatched" the emperor from Concubine Wan, but she didn't expect something big to happen on the first night. She was so scared that she knocked on the door of Chengqian Palace at night and asked Lingrong to help her.

Lingrong had gone to bed a long time ago, but was awakened by the noise. Her heart began to beat wildly, making her feel extremely bad. She walked into Changchun Palace with a cold face.

The palace maids and eunuchs in Changchun Palace were kneeling on the ground. When they saw Lingrong coming, they didn't dare to look up, and even lowered their heads even more, for fear that Lingrong would vent her anger on them.

Concubine Qi did not kneel, but she turned her face away and did not dare to look directly at Lingrong.

"Doctor Wei, go take the emperor's pulse. If there is anything, come and report it immediately.

Zhaoshui, go to Yongshou Palace and tell them that the emperor has fainted and ask Concubine Wan to come over."

Seeing Zhaoshui leave, Concubine Qi asked, "My Lady Concubine, why did you ask Concubine Wan to come? She is not an imperial physician and cannot cure the emperor."

Lingrong glanced at her, rubbed her forehead, closed her eyes and rested, not wanting to pay any attention to Concubine Qi.

When Concubine Qi saw that Ling Rong ignored her, she frowned and looked at Mu Jin who was serving beside her. However, Mu Jin had no expression on her face and just stood there stupidly, which made people want to get angry.

But how could Concubine Qi dare to get angry with the imperial concubine's servant? She could only shut up and wait for Wei Lin to report back the emperor's message.

Not long after, Wei Lin came out. He sighed and said, "My Lady Concubine, the Emperor's health has deteriorated a bit, but fortunately his pulse is still normal, so he won't be in any danger for the time being."

Wei Lin never said anything difficult to understand to his masters. He had even written the prescription and was just waiting to send someone to the imperial pharmacy to get the medicine.

"Mujin, go to the imperial pharmacy and make sure to get all the herbs."

"Doctor Wei...can I go in to see the Emperor at this time?" Seeing that there was nothing for Concubine Qi to do, she decided to find an opportunity to show her courtesy to the Emperor.

Otherwise, when Concubine Wan comes, she won’t be able to keep the emperor in Changchun Palace.

"This..." Wei Lin looked at Ling Rong, and only nodded in response after Ling Rong nodded.

Concubine Qi finally smiled, stood up and went into the bedroom. Ling Rong pinched her brows and didn't speak until she could no longer hear Concubine Qi's voice, "Is it related to the medicine the emperor took?"

"It is indeed related to that medicine," Wei Lin's expression also showed some helplessness, "After the emperor was persuaded by the queen, he only did not take medicine for one or two days, and even took more medicine than before, and the dosage was even heavier.

These medicines increased the emperor's physical burden, causing him to suffer severe pain in his limbs and feel dizzy if he did not take the medicines during the day.

However, once this medicine is taken, it will gradually lose its effectiveness and may even bring out the body's chronic illnesses.

In the end...it is very likely that he will die of illness like the Empress Dowager."

Ling Rong's expression did not change. She was neither sad nor happy because of the emperor's serious illness. She only considered her own interests. "According to the current frequency, if the emperor continues to take this medicine, how long can he live?"

“This…” Wei Lin felt a chill on his back, and sweat instantly oozed out of his forehead. He pressed his forehead with his sleeve, and after thinking for a while, he finally spoke, “I’m afraid… I can’t hold out for more than a year.”

"This time is too short," Ling Rong sighed. In a year, Ling Rong had to choose the Fifth Prince. "Is there any way to regulate the emperor's health?"

Wei Lin shook his head and said, "My Lady Imperial Concubine, unless the Emperor can stop taking the medicine, you will have to adjust your schedule from today onwards. Not only will you have to keep fit every day, but you will also have to be cared for by the Imperial Physician at all times.

Your Majesty, there is no need for me to continue. Do you think that the Emperor can really accept such a life?

Or, in other words, does the emperor's status allow him to live like this?"

Ling Rong fell silent. The emperor absolutely could not endure such a day, but if he knew that he only had one year to live, perhaps there would be some changes.

"Your Highness, I know what you are thinking," Wei Lin interrupted Ling Rong's wild thoughts, "This matter is not just yours. Other imperial doctors have also informed the emperor, but the emperor still relapses into his old ways. If Your Highness continues to advise him with this, I am afraid that the emperor will vent his anger on you.

To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I am quite timid. Ever since Doctor Wen was executed along with his entire clan, I have been thinking twice before saying anything. "

"Don't worry, I will rise and fall with you, and I will definitely not push you out to take the blame.

It’s just that the emperor’s health is so poor, I really haven’t figured out what to do yet.”

Wei Lin was just about to speak to comfort her when Zhao Shui and Concubine Wan rushed over. When Concubine Wan saw Ling Rong, she bent her knees symbolically and went straight into the bedroom to find the emperor.

After being interrupted, Wei Lin didn't know what to say, so he bowed and left Changchun Palace first.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan brought the medicine with her, but the situation is..."

"Let them fight it out," Ling Rong didn't care about the two of them. As for who the emperor would choose, she didn't want to care. "Anyway, Concubine Wan will not lose. But the two of them have a grudge, so it's normal for them to quarrel. I can just watch and have fun."

"Your Majesty is not afraid of being tired, and she even wants to mediate between the two of them," Zhaoshui yawned, rubbing the tears from her eyes, "It's so late at night, it's really disturbing, luckily the night breeze just blew, otherwise I would have fallen asleep.

But Concubine Wan was surprised that she hadn't gone to bed yet so late. I went to knock on the door and Aunt Lianhua opened it immediately, saying that Concubine Wan had been waiting for a long time.

“Because Concubine Wan knows that the emperor’s health is too poor right now, and he won’t be able to stay focused for a long time without taking medicine.

That's why she let Concubine Qi ask the emperor to leave, because she knew that the emperor couldn't leave her."

The two were chatting outside when suddenly there was a commotion in the bedroom, as if something had happened.

"Look, this mess has come so quickly." Zhaoshui sighed and helped Lingrong up, "Your Majesty will have to clean up the mess for them."

"It seems that you didn't sleep well either. You dare to say such things." Ling Rong's tone was not angry. She patted the hand that was supporting her arm and said, "If you are too tired, let Mu Jin come over."

Zhaoshui shook her head and said, "I just feel sorry for you, Madam."

After just two steps, the noise became much louder. As soon as Ling Rong walked into the room, she saw Concubine Qi glaring at Concubine Wan. The Emperor had already sat up, silent but with an angry look on his face.

"Your Majesty is awake. How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"There was nothing wrong," the emperor said, suppressing his anger, "but the constant noise in my ears made me upset."

Concubine Qi knew that the emperor was alluding to her, but she did not dare to vent her anger on the emperor and Ling Rong. She could only glare at Concubine Wan fiercely.

"I think Concubine Wan and Concubine Qi are a little impatient because they are worried about the emperor." Ling Rong did not sit in front of the emperor, she just watched from a distance, "But it's late at night, the two sisters should go to bed early, so that the emperor can have some peace and quiet to avoid a headache."

"Your Majesty, please stay in Changchun Palace," Concubine Qi said hurriedly. She sat on the couch and pushed Concubine Wan aside. "It's late at night. If you mess around, it might make your illness worse. Your Majesty, don't you agree?"

Concubine Qi spoke in a gentle voice, but unexpectedly the emperor shook his head and refused, "It's very stuffy in Changchun Palace. I'll go to Yongshou Palace to sit for a while to wake up."

"Your Majesty," Concubine Qi grabbed the emperor's arm and shook it gently, "You have accompanied Concubine Wan for long enough. You finally came to my place today. Why are you leaving again?"

"Because you are too noisy," Concubine Wan did not give Concubine Qi any face this time. She covered her nose with a handkerchief and even fanned it on purpose. "Changchun Palace is indeed too stuffy. The smell is not very good. I feel dizzy coming here."

"You!" Concubine Qi was very angry. She sniffed, as if she was smelling whether there was any strange smell in the room. "There is no smell at all. You deliberately slandered me in order to win the favor of the emperor.

You are going too far to use such a dirty trick in front of the emperor."

Concubine Wan didn't say anything, but just looked at Concubine Qi with a smile. The Emperor was also a little displeased and pulled Concubine Qi's hand off his arm.

"Your Majesty, please stay. Your health is the most important." Concubine Qi withdrew her hand. She pouted her lips, looking quite coquettish and naive, but the emperor didn't notice it at all and just wanted to leave.

Concubine Wan looked for a while, then suddenly bowed, turned around and left without even saying goodbye.

When she passed by Lingrong, she didn't even glance at her, she just walked away with her head held high.

"This Concubine Wan is becoming more and more unruly." Concubine Qi's face turned pale with anger. She tugged at her handkerchief, looking at the emperor and then at Lingrong.

Ling Rong did not respond, she bowed to the emperor and said, "Since the emperor is fine, I am relieved. You Ning heard that the emperor fainted, and he also rushed over to see him.

She must be worried since I haven't been back for so long."

"Go back first and tell Youning that I am fine. I will go see her tomorrow and ask her to finish writing the article first."

It's late at night and she still has to assign homework to the children, who have to read by candlelight. Her eyes are almost hurt. Ling Rong snorted in her heart, thinking that the Emperor was being too harsh.

"The concubine knows."

Ling Rong said this and turned away. She was not interested in whether Concubine Guan Qi could keep the emperor. Sleep was more important to her at this moment.

Unexpectedly, not long after returning to Chengqian Palace, Lingrong heard that the emperor insisted on leaving Changchun Palace despite his health condition.

This behavior made Concubine Qi so angry that she burst into tears, but unfortunately, her tears did not stop the emperor, and he finally went to Yongshou Palace.

The candles in Yongshou Palace remained lit all night. The emperor took medicine again and seemed to not care about his own life at all.
