[Red Chamber] Daiyu Reborn

Outside the window, the shadows of the trees whirled and the cool breeze gusts.As the night darkened, Lin Jifeng's eyes grew darker.

After a long time, Lin Jifeng raised his legs and returned to his cynical appearance, but his tone was full of self-deprecation: "Princess, Miss Qin, since I am willing to take the risk to help you bear half of the blame, can you tell me, you and How did the court lady Su Xin get on the line, and how did they reach a deal?"

It was an accident that Concubine Zhou used a eunuch to frame Daiyu and dragged Concubine Li Shu down. It was an accident that someone used this to pour dirty water on Jia Yuanchun. Why was it just a few months ago?In such a short period of time, how could Qin Keqing, as an ordinary woman who supplies medicine to the imperial dining room, have time to arrange everything?

"Well, it's okay to tell you." Still with a leisurely and gentle smile, Qin Keqing glanced at him casually, "If the masters in the palace are bitter, then the slaves are even more miserable. Not to mention that they may be lost at any time." Life, even if you are lucky enough to be released from the palace, most of the eunuchs are old and homeless, and the palace ladies are even more miserable, with no rank, but they will be coveted by greedy relatives for the property brought out of the palace. The palaces were forced by the clan, or the adopted sons were tortured to death, or forced into the sedan chair, married to some despicable and ugly men as the second wife to fill the house, and endured the beatings and abuses of their husbands every day."

"Of course they don't want to be bullied by others after half their lives, so over time, they came up with their own way to adopt poor orphans from Yangshengtang, but to keep their family property, firstly, they need official documents; Therefore, they need someone to escort them and provide information; of course, in exchange, they are also willing to send out contacts and information they can come up with."

Lin Jifeng suddenly realized - the so-called doctor's parents' heart, the Qin family is a well-known benevolent family, often donating to build roads, and also sponsoring the health care hall in the capital that adopts homeless orphans.It turned out that Qin Keqing was linked to the imperial palace through this thread a long time ago.

Qin Keqing took out a long strip wrapped in silk cloth and handed it to Lin Jifeng - Lin Jifeng took it and opened it, only to see that it was a wooden tablet. There is infinite affection between the lines: "The position of the husband Du Shi".

"Now, even in the palace, how many people still remember that the eunuch, the chief of the inner palace department, was called Du Shi because he offended the princess?" Qin Keqing drew back the tablet, rolled it up again with a silk handkerchief, and put it away, " In fact, Su Xin 'made a mistake' back then and was almost beaten to death, just because she refused to betray her little sister and sneaked into Fenghua Palace as an internal response."

Su Xin is also a maid released from the palace. Because of her special nature, Qin Keqing sent someone to keep an eye on her early in the morning, and even helped her escape from the poisonous hands of Concubine Zhou many times.But this time, Suxin took the initiative to beg the owner behind the Yangshengtang, not to live, but to risk her life, and also to avenge the one she loves.

"If it is found out that you are manipulating after Yangshengtang, you will be in danger." Lin Jifeng couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"How come? My Qin family is not the only one who funded Yangshengtang?" Qin Keqing looked at him with a faint smile, "Don't forget, you also spent a lot of money. And the Zhou family, didn't they also give out a year ago? Did the sum of money build a new house for Yangshengtang?"

"You... I really underestimated you." Lin Jifeng shook his head and smiled wryly, "Can I ask a question? Suxin and her family were really burned to death in that ruined temple?"

Qin Keqing lightly shook her head: "Su Xin's family members died in the flood a long time ago. As for the nunnery, the people who used to live in it were all the court ladies who had to become nuns due to the situation."

Seeing that Qin Keqing didn't intend to reveal it again, Lin Jifeng could only sigh with emotion: "This incident tells me, no matter when it comes, don't underestimate anyone, and don't do things casually."

"My father said that people are the most fun and the most dangerous, because no one can control others forever, and even they often only have a half-knowledge about themselves." Just like her, she never knew that her hatred was so deep; but Su Xin presented the opportunity in front of her, she almost hesitated for a moment, and then participated in this conspiracy that involved no one knew how deep it was.

"So, your tenderness and restraint are all fake. You not only want to find out the truth, but you also want to take revenge." Lin Jifeng suddenly expressed emotion with a half-smile.

Qin Keqing's eyes turned cold, and she confronted her tit-for-tat: "Even if your indulgence is not fake, how can I fully believe you when you say you want to help me find out the truth about my father's murder? At least, I can see that you don't want to do it for my father. revenge."

Lin Jifeng was not surprised at all, and nodded bluntly: "I only care about the cause and the result—it should be said that this is the only thing the prince cares about."

"What do you mean?" Ever since Lin Jifeng entered the door, Qin Keqing maintained an unmoving attitude, secretly controlling the direction of the topic, just not wanting to be taken away by his indulgence and impermanence like last time, so that in the end he lost his composure and hit a ghost Usually escaped from his room; however, Lin Jifeng mentioned her father, which made her have to pay attention.

"I care about the reason, because people live a lifetime, and they can't live a foolish and ignorant life. Although it is rare to be ignorant, it is a blessing, but if you are ignorant even for your life, it will be too wronged." Lin Jifeng recalled carefully, his face There was even a hint of a smile, "I care about the result, because people live a lifetime, and there is always a result, whether it is good or bad, or a myth or a joke. Even if it is a wordless tablet, you have to give yourself a clear explanation. .”

"I owe the prince's favor not because he saved me. In that turbulent era, there were many bad-hearted people and many kind-hearted people. It is not uncommon to be dragged back at a critical moment. I thank the prince, yes Because he taught me how to live—he rescued me from those herb pickers, and after I recovered from my injuries, he took me up that cliff, where he let me be pushed down by me The herb collector kowtowed 99 times. I was furious at the time, but he told me that the childhood of those herb collectors was the same, everyone came here like this, and no one is more righteous than the other.”

As he talked, Lin Jifeng's smile became more ostentatious, but also more sinister.And Qin Keqing sat aside and listened quietly, although her expression remained unchanged, her hands on her knees could not help but slowly clenched.

"The prince also told me some things. I'm afraid he hasn't told you. No wonder literati like to climb high and look far away. A place surrounded by clouds and mist really makes people talk a lot." Lin Jifeng narrowed his eyes slightly, as if looking back In the past, "he said, he had his ideals and aspirations, and he really wanted the throne, but he lost the game by one move, so he could only pinch his nose and admit that he was unlucky. He knew he was sorry for your mother and daughter, but he was already helpless." It can be redeemed, he chose Yunnan willingly because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, maybe it can create a pure land for you mother and daughter to live in peace. I didn't understand it at the time, but now that I think about it, isn't it just such a thing? "

In the struggle for the throne, no one's methods are better than the other's. Hate is real, but you also give so much hate to others. If you repay your grievances, there will only be endless blood-stained rivers.

Looking at his clear eyes, Qin Keqing couldn't help but think of her father Yunhua—in fact, Lin Jifeng's personality is very similar to his father's.

"In this way, no father can see through my daughter." Qin Keqing suddenly let go of her tightly clenched hands and laughed at herself.

"So, I don't want you to dirty your own hands. You protect Princess Nongyue everywhere, hoping to keep her safe and sound, but for yourself... can you pay more attention to it?" Lin Jifeng's tone suddenly changed. Extremely gentle, extremely... seductive, or bewitching.

Qin Keqing frowned suddenly, and avoided her gaze a little awkwardly: "I was really impulsive this time, and after that... I will have my own measure."

"But I'm worried." Lin Jifeng's wry smile seemed extremely sincere.

Qin Keqing stood up suddenly, walked quickly to the door, opened the door with anger in her eyes: "You go!"

"Yes, yes..." Lin Jifeng slowly walked to the door, suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his head and said, "Shui Rong is a good person, but he is too casual. I think, if you really marry him, It will definitely be tossed out of insanity."

"Compared to him, how are you?" Qin Keqing narrowed her eyes, and suddenly closed the door heavily.

Lin Jifeng, who had a bad nose, had to leave with a sigh. When he came, he was full of surprise and anger, but when he left, he was desolate and desolate. I haven't seen him in ten years. The little princess is no longer the simple and lovely person she used to be. Good little princess, how can I play with such a fickle woman, and try to steal her heart, it's as hard as heaven!

However, after this heart-pounding fire ignited, the private case in the inner palace caused by the rumors between Concubine Xian and eunuch Du Shi also came to an end: except for a pile of charred corpses whose identity could not be identified, the city guards were still burned to ruins A hidden basement was found under the nunnery of the old nunnery. In the basement were the eunuch Du Shi's spirit tablet and the suicide note of the court lady Su Xin. Not wanting to be murdered, Suxin lost her lover and was hunted down by the Zhou family. In the end, she chose to burn everything together. It was worth it to exchange her cheap life for a general of the Zhou family.

Several items from the Inner Palace collection were also found in the basement, all of which were recorded - the Inner Palace Secretary counted them all from Du Shi's collection and savings over the years.

Although there is no certification, but the physical evidence is convincing, the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun should have been wronged.If she is wrong, it can only be the mistake she made when she was a palace maid who entered the Qinfang Court without permission, but now, neither the emperor nor Nongyue will bother with her any more - because they are burdened with such a heavy psychological burden. The burden caused Yuanchun's already unstable fetus to be lost in this way. The imperial physicians all said that it was caused by overthinking.

The emperor's harem is rare to have joy, and it just disappeared. The imperial concubine Zhou was so angry that she almost killed the pharmacist, but Yuan Chun dragged her weak body and knelt down to plead for mercy. In the end, the empress dowager saw her face pale as paper Looking around, she muttered, "It's a good fortune for the virtuous concubine", and then let the pharmacy nurse go.

Nanny Si Yao was left in Fengzao Palace, Yuan Chun was neither near nor far from her, and was still enshrined as a precious object.This accident made her grow up rapidly, and made her realize that being alone is always useful.

However, Concubine Zhou and the Zhou family were much more miserable. Concubine Zhou had been arbitrarily self-employed. Yun Shuo finally took away all the palace power in her hands and handed it over to Shi Zhaoyi and Zhen Zhaorong. , Yun Shuo also took the initiative to invite Concubine Lu and Concubine Liu to the Prime Minister's Palace, and the Empress Dowager Yun Luo also agreed; Zhou Cheng was seriously injured, but he was accused of murdering people, Yun Shuo unceremoniously took his The officer, just because he was seriously injured and almost died, did not pursue further.The Zhou family lost their two great arms in front of the harem at once, which can be described as a serious injury.

Anyone who thinks this is the end is wrong.The imperial palace suffered such a catastrophe. Although the concubine Zhou Guifei was the chief culprit, the unhealthy atmosphere between the eunuchs and the maids was the direct cause of the rumors.After inviting the Supreme Emperor, Yun Shuo ordered the whole palace to thoroughly investigate the private matters. Unexpectedly, the first to find out the scandal was not the Shang Palace Bureau or the Inner Palace Secretary, but the Tai Hospital!

The imperial hospital was found out, many imperial physicians colluded with the eunuchs, and secretly developed evil secret medicines for them to fuel their obscene desires. In some imperial physicians' rooms, some extremely obscene objects were even copied. They all blushed.

The rectification has added a Imperial Hospital. Of course, on the second day of the inspection, the Empress Dowager allowed Xiao Ruofan to resign and leave the palace. Before leaving the palace, Xiao Ruofan went to Qinfangyuan. It was a wry smile full of helplessness.
