Wind and Rain Empire

Empress Yang led Chunhua and approached the imperial study with a box. At this moment, an eunuch came running with a letter in her hand. After seeing Empress Yang, she was so shocked that she quickly knelt down.

"A thousand years old empress"

Empress Yang saw the letter in the eunuch's hand and asked

"Are you going to deliver a letter to the official?"

The eunuch replied

"Go back to Empress Empress, that's right"

"It just so happens that Ai's family wants to send something to the official family, so you brought the letter to Ai's family and sent it in."

eunuch hesitated

"But this... this is the duty of a slave, how dare you have Empress Lao?"

Chunhua is helping me on one side

"So... are you going to disobey the queen's will?"

The eunuch was forced to hand over the letter

"Slave dare not"

Chunhua took the letter and handed it to Queen Yang, who said to the eunuch

"Go down if you have nothing else to do"

"Yes, empress"

Empress Yang opened the letter without any scruples and read it, then her face changed suddenly, and she cursed

"This little bitch actually lied to Ai's family"

spring flowers concern

"Ma'am, what's the matter?"

Empress Yang clutched the letter fiercely.

"That little bitch Zi Linglong is already two months pregnant."

Chunhua is surprised

"But, my lord, how long has she been out of the palace... This counts... that means she is pregnant with a dragon child?"

Empress Yang's eyes became sharper

"That's right, I was a little surprised (looked at the letter in his hand, and said slowly) It's a pity that the yamen servant who wrote the letter just wanted to report the good news and ask the officials for a reward. I didn't expect that this request would cost my life Excuse me (looks at Chunhua) You write down the address written on this letter, and ask Zheng Xian to find someone to clean her up, along with everyone in her family, remember to cut the weeds and root them out, and never let the wind leak out."

Chunhua bows her head slightly

"Yes, empress"

Seeing Chunhua leave with a letter, Empress Yang monologues

"Anyway, the children who can succeed now are not Aijia's children. One less is one. Aijia himself will adopt one of the children he likes in the future. It will never be on your head, because Aijia knows that you Once his child succeeds to the throne, it will do all harm to the Ai family, but not any benefit."

Empress Yang carried the box into the royal study

Inside the imperial study

Empress Yang walked into the imperial study, put the box on the table, and began to wipe away tears

The emperor was not in a good mood at first, but when he saw Empress Yang crying, he stepped forward to comfort her.

"Queen, what's wrong with you? Why are you still crying?"

Empress Yang is crying

"In one day, Aijia lost two former good sisters, can you not be sad?"

The emperor sighed, and then looked at the box

"What's in this box?"

"Pretending to be the chief culprit who caused the two sisters of the Ai family to suffer miserably!"

Queen Yang lifted the lid

A strong stench wafted out, the emperor and Eunuch Wu covered their noses and looked into the box

A huge fleshy ball with hair and nails unfolds before the eyes

The emperor covered his nose with one hand, pointed at the meat ball with the other and shouted

"Monster, monster! This is a monster! Throw it away!"

Eunuch Wu hastily closed the lid and lifted the box out

emperor sigh

"Injustice, injustice, concubine Shu, who looks like a ball, actually gave birth to a ball, really, injustice!"

Empress Yang almost couldn't hold back her laughter, she held it back abruptly, and stepped forward to comfort the emperor

"Official family, this is fate, and the Ai family is also extremely sad. Now only the Ai family and Cao Jieyu Yan beauty are left among the concubines. The former sisters have all left the Ai family one by one. In three years Five years, I still don’t know what will happen.”

The emperor looked at Empress Yang, and the two were speechless.

Somewhere in the wasteland outside the capital

Zheng Xian was holding a bundle in her hand, standing on the wasteland, looking into the distance

Three people wearing ordinary clothes and hats walked towards Zheng Xian and saluted Zheng Xian

The leading man bows and hands

"Madam Zheng, be polite"

Zheng Xian turned around and handed the burden to the man

"The address and the deposit are all in the package, remember, don't keep any of them"

The leader took the burden

"Madam Zheng, that head..."

"Keep it for yourself, my empress and I don't need that thing"

The man said

"Understood, let's do it now, we won't disappoint Mammy"

Zheng Xian nodded towards the leading man

"That's good"

The three watched Zheng Xian leave, and then walked towards the other side

Inner hall of Honglingxuan

The eunuch just called out "The empress is here!" Empress Yang walked straight into the Hongling Pavilion with Chun □□

The maid greeted her and bowed to Empress Yang

"Happy Queen Empress"

Empress Yang looked around, but she didn't see Hong Wan, and asked the maid:

"Where is Yan Meiren? Ai's family is here and she won't come out to greet her?"

The maid bowed her head and answered

"Yan Meiren is not feeling well, she is still lying on the couch."

Empress Yang looked suspiciously at the maid

"There is such a thing? Has it been passed on to the imperial physician?"

"Beauty, she won't let her pass on to the imperial physician, saying that it's just a minor illness, so it's okay."

Empress Yang's eyes fluttered

"Seeing that you guys really don't know how to take care of them, let's go in and take a look at Ai's family."

Empress Yang walked into the bedroom with spring flowers

In the bedroom, Hong Wan was lying on her side on the couch, without any movement

The maid followed the queen into the room, walked up to Hong Wan, and whispered

"Your Majesty, the empress empress is here to see you"

Hong Wan turned her face away, her face and lips were white, she climbed out of the bed tremblingly, and knelt on the ground

She kowtowed to Empress Yang with a haggard face

"Empress Empress...a thousand years old"

Empress Yang was also really taken aback, and hurried forward to help Hong Wan up.

"What's wrong with you, beauty? Why haven't you been sick for a few days?"

Hongwan's weak voice

"The concubine doesn't know, I just feel cold."

She couldn't stand still, and fell into the arms of Queen Yang, who held Hong Wan in her arms.

"Since that's the case, then beauty sister, rest well. The Ai family ordered the imperial doctor to come and see you and prescribe some medicine for you. You will be fine."

Hong Wan shook her head

"Emperor Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Qiu have both looked for it, and they both said that the concubine is fine, so don't worry about it."

Empress Yang was surprised

"Have you looked for them all?"

"Yeah, since they can't see the faults of the concubine, it means that the concubine is probably terminally ill and cannot be cured."

Empress Yang's inner monologue

"That's just right, so I won't have to do anything about it."

She smiled at Hong Wan

"Sister, how could it be? It must be because of your strong body that they can't see the problem. This may be a temporary deficiency of yours. Just pay more attention to your diet."

Hong Wan shakes her head

"Empress, you don't need to comfort Hong Wan, Hong Wan knows it in her heart."

Empress Yang was happy in her heart but didn't show it, she said to the maid

"Take good care of Yan Meiren. If there is something wrong, you are the only ones to ask."

The maid bowed her head

"Yes, empress, the servants must do their best to take good care of Yan Meiren."

Empress Yang glanced at Hongwan, then led Chunhua out of the dormitory

palace road

Empress Yang and Chunhua are walking slowly

Chunhua looks at Queen Yang

"Empress, this Yan Meiren looks very bad, she is so sick, she probably won't live long?"

Queen Yang blinked

"It's probably because I smoked that incense for too long, so we don't have to go to her in the future, and wait for her delicate flower to wither slowly."

Seeing that Empress Yang was in a good mood, Chunhua smiled

"Yes, ma'am"

In the bedroom of Honglingxuan

Hong Wan washed her face with the water in the basin, washed off the white cream on her face, and took the hand towel from the maid.

The maid exclaimed in admiration

"My lady, your makeup skills are really good"

Hong Wan asked the maid while wiping her face with a towel

"Do you think the Empress has bought it?"

"I should have bought it. Once I heard that your mother is dying, I didn't say anything."

Hong Wan sneered and said

"She is probably waiting for me to die. (Turning around, looking at the maid) Zi Zhaorong told Bengong not to touch Empress Yang, so Bengong will definitely stay away from her."

The maid nods in response

"The servant girl estimates that the empress will not come to harass you for a period of time from now on, the empress."

Hong Wan breathed a sigh of relief

“That was the best”

The emperor's bedroom in Funing Palace at night

The emperor was sitting on the couch in a daze, and Eunuch Wu approached with a pipa

Eunuch Wu handed over the pipa

"Official, this is the pipa left by Zi Zhaorong that you wanted, and it has been repaired by someone."

The emperor took the pipa and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but recall Zi Linglong when she was playing the pipa, all kinds of emotions were disturbing, and finally she just sighed

"Hey!"

When Eunuch Wu saw the emperor, his expression was serious.

"Official, it's been so long, you should let it go"

The Emperor to Eunuch Wu

"You won't understand. My friendship with her is like fragrant nectar. After tasting it once, I feel that no one else can replace it. You don't know how much I want her to stay in the palace, but I And I don't want to see her treat me with hypocrisy every day, I chose to let her be free, and chose to be cruel to myself."

Eunuch Wu helped out with ideas

"Since that's the case, the official family, you can send someone a letter to express your feelings. Maybe Zi Zhaorong changed her mind after she had had enough fun outside and thought of how kind you were to her, the official family?"

emperor smiling

"I know her well. All the decisions she made have been carefully considered and will not be changed easily. Moreover, I know very well that she will never come back to the palace."

Eunuch Wu stepped forward to persuade

"It's okay for you to write a letter, just as a greeting between husband and wife after a long time, that's all."

The emperor was silent for a while

"Yeah, it's really okay to say hello (turning point). She must be living with her parents at the moment. I remember that I gave her father a small official job, but I don't remember where it went."

"Officials, what's the difficulty? Go to the Ministry of Officials tomorrow and find out."

Early the next morning, Qian Shilang was sitting in the office of the Ministry of Officials, reading the dossier

The emperor entered the Ministry of Officials with a group of eunuchs without saying hello. Qian Shilang hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Damn the next official, I didn't know the official's arrival"

The emperor waved to him

"Excuse me, please quickly find out the roster of Zi Zhaorong's parents who took office."

Qian Shilang muttered puzzledly

"Why again?"

The emperor sat down and felt strange

"What? Someone came to check before?"

Qian Shilang hands up

"Back to the emperor, Zhaorong sent a eunuch to investigate before (pause) Why did you want to investigate her parents?"

"What do you ask so many, just find out"

Qian Shilang started to look through the files again, and several eunuchs stepped forward to look through them together

Qian Shilang pointed at the pile of files

"It's in this pile, and it hasn't moved since that father-in-law left."

The eunuchs speeded up their reading and found it soon

"Official, something is blacked out here"

The emperor took the roster to read, but couldn't see it clearly, so he threw it to Qian Shilang

"It's been blacked out here, who is it, do you still have an impression?"

Qian Shilang rubbed his hands in embarrassment

"Officials, there are too many people, I really don't know who they are..."

The emperor stood up and turned his back

"Forget it, since I can't remember it, then I will disqualify you for the crime of dereliction of duty. The official department is so important, you actually let an eunuch modify the roster"

Qian Shilang looks innocent

"Official, how could this be..."

The emperor looked at him sullenly

"What? Are you still not convinced?"

Qian Shilang kneels down

"Thank you... the grace of not killing the officials..."
