Ling Rong's discouragement didn't last long. In this turbulent palace, she didn't have time to be depressed. She still had too many things to do, and she never dared to slack off.

In the next few days, the harem was very quiet, the emperor did not deal with anyone, and the others were also on the sidelines, standing still.Beneath the eerie calm surface is a depressing dark wave, everything seems to be waiting for an opportunity to erupt.

After sending Baojuan away, Ling Rong didn't pursue any further investigations, but just quietly stayed in Zhongcui Palace to recuperate.And since Daling Rong was able to leave the bed, the frequency of the emperor's visit to Zhongcui Palace has greatly increased.It's just that Ling Rong didn't ask, and the emperor didn't take the initiative to say anything. Ling Rong thought that maybe the emperor hadn't figured out how to end this matter, after all, the queen mother was involved.And Ling Rong himself is still thinking about what he can get from this matter, and thinking about how to deal with it is the most appropriate.

On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head.Manchus believe in shamanism, and "shamanism" believes that all things have gods. According to "shamanism", all kinds of gods have become active since February [-].

On this day, there are many customs, such as the custom of "leading the dragon", such as the custom of eating "dragon beard noodles" and "dragon scale cakes", such as the custom of "shaving the dragon's head".The Manchus believed that shaving the dragon's head every year would lead to a prosperous and promising future when they grow up.

There are two young elder brothers here in Lingrong, and they are not very old. The emperor sent two experienced old eunuchs to shave the heads of the two children early on.

Hong Xi is quite sensible now, and he was very honest when he shaved his head, and he shaved it off in a short while.He wasn't completely shaved, but a bunch of hair was left on the back of his head, which was called the money rat tail. Coupled with Hongxi's chubby face, he was very cute.

The ninth elder brother from the mausoleum has only been around for two months now, and he has been raised well, so the emperor gave him the name "Hongrui".To be fair, the seventh elder brother and the eighth elder brother were also named Hong Xu and Hong Luo respectively.Before Hongrui could make a fuss, the old eunuch who shaved his head was very skilled, and he shaved his head very quickly.

This was the first time for Hongrui to shave his head. After the fetal hair was shaved, a eunuch from the House of Internal Affairs collected a few strands to make into brushes. Ling Rong specially ordered to make a few more as a souvenir.

When the time entered March and the weather warmed up, Mausoleum began to move around in the harem, but most of the time he was still recuperating in Zhongcui Palace.Concubine Hua's petty movements were frequent, Ling Rong was a little worried, and also had some vague expectations.I don't know how Concubine Hua will do it, she is very curious.

Soon, Concubine Hua took action, and many superficial evidences for framing Lingrong pointed to Zhen Huan, and it was too obvious to be convincing.Ling Rong thought that Concubine Hua would start with Cao Qinmo who was exchanging gifts, but she didn't expect that Concubine Hua could hold Cao Qinmo and bite Zhen Huan, what a surprise.

Concubine Hua's way of handling things is very simple and rude, very Concubine Hua's style, she just uses the superficial evidence of Zhen Huan's intention to murder the emperor's heir, coupled with Cao Qinmo's backlash, and for some reason suddenly becomes more powerful The other physical evidences and witnesses, but the physical evidences are all available, so the emperor has to pay attention to it.

Sensitive as a mausoleum, it is natural to see that there is something strange in it, and from this I can also guess that Cao Qinmo should be used by the Queen Mother, otherwise things will not go so smoothly. It seems that the Queen Mother is going to make trouble.Ling Rong couldn't help sneering, and made some decisions in his heart.

However, Ling Rong did not act in a hurry, she was still very curious about the emperor's treatment of Zhen Huan and how Zhen Huan responded.

Zhen Huanduan is stable, Concubine Hua has already made the incident known to everyone, Zhen Huan has no strong evidence to prove her innocence, but she still never mentions Concubine Duan, she just asks the emperor to investigate thoroughly and return her innocence.The emperor stayed and did not say anything, but Concubine Hua became impatient. If Ling Rong hadn't secretly dissuaded her, Concubine Hua would have gone to question Concubine Duan long ago.

The birth this time hurt Ling Rong's foundation, and Ling Rong's body was much weaker. When a spring rain hit, he became hot, and he always coughed low at night.On the contrary, Hongrui, who was born prematurely, has grown stronger and stronger, and is not afraid of the wind and rain at all.

When the emperor came to see Ling Rong, Ling Rong had already lost his fever, but he was a little lethargic, coughing twice from time to time.

"Rong'er, are you feeling better?" The emperor asked worriedly while sitting in front of Ling Rong's bed.

"The emperor is worried, the concubine is fine, ahem..." Lingrong smiled weakly at the emperor.

"Just rest if you're not feeling well, I'll just watch you here." The emperor patted Ling Rong's back with pity, and comforted him.

"The emperor should go back to rest earlier. The concubine looks sick and tired. If the emperor accidentally gets sick, it will be the concubine's fault." Ling Rong leaned on the bed and looked at the emperor weakly.

"..." The emperor stared fixedly at the mausoleum, and said after a while: "Sometimes, you don't have to be so sensible."

"The emperor?" Ling Rong looked at the emperor suspiciously, as if he didn't quite understand what the emperor meant.

"You rest, I will come to see you another day." The emperor said with a sigh.

"The concubine sends the emperor respectfully." Ling Rong leaned on the bed, watching the emperor leave weakly.

After the emperor left, Qingyu and Liuli came in to serve Lingrong. Lingrong took the hot handkerchief Qingyu handed over, wiped off the excess powder on his face and lips, and restored his normal complexion.

"My lord, it's time to take the medicine." After Lingrong washed up briefly, Liuli handed the medicine to Lingrong. Lingrong's illness was already completely cured, but in order to make the emperor feel guilty a little more In order to gain more benefits for himself, Ling Rong made himself "sick" for a few days.

"Qingyu, has there been any movement with the concubine Nian these few days?" Ling Rong asked after drinking the medicine and rinsing his mouth.

"The servant girl is about to tell the young master that the concubine Nian can't bear it any longer, and I'm afraid she will go to Pixiang Hall to find Concubine Duan in these two days." Qingyu said.

"Let people keep an eye on it, and report immediately if there is any movement." Ling Rong frowned slightly and said.

"My lord, don't worry, your body is important." Liuli persuaded.

"Yeah." Ling Rong fell asleep with a heavy heart.

On the second night, Ling Rong received the news that Concubine Hua had gone to the Pixiang Hall, Ling Rong hurriedly changed into the maid's clothes and rushed over in the dark.There is no one serving in Pixiang Hall, and the mausoleum can enter easily.Ling Rong has always been very puzzled, even if Concubine Hua oppresses Concubine Duan, Concubine Duan is still the master of the high concubine, and the emperor also has some affection for Concubine Duan, how dare the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs be so negligent?If Concubine Hua was putting pressure on her before, then Concubine Hua has obviously lost her power now. Why is Concubine Duan's palace still so deserted?It's really puzzling.

When Mausoleum arrived, it was obvious that Concubine Hua had vented most of her anger. At this time Concubine Hua and Concubine Duan were confronting each other, and the dispute was still about Concubine Hua's miscarriage and the recent frame-up. Compared with Concubine Hua, Concubine Duan looked so innocent and harmless.Ling Rong just hid in the dark and watched quietly.Concubine Hua vented, but she still couldn't pry Concubine Duan's mouth open, so she left Pixiang Palace angrily.After Concubine Hua left, Ling Rong ordered Hu Po to stay by the side, and then she came out from the shadows and appeared in front of Concubine Duan.

"Concubine Duan." Ling Rong looked at Concubine Duan calmly, and said lightly.

"You... Concubine Jin?" Concubine Duan was a little surprised when she saw the mausoleum, but also a little bit clear, and there was a hint of guilt, her expression was very complicated.

"Concubine Duan doesn't seem to be surprised that I'm here." Lingrong Shi Shiran chose a stool that was still in good condition and sat down, and said.

This house has been almost destroyed by Concubine Hua, no wonder Concubine Duan is not happy to have servants guarding her. No one would want to be seen by servants in such a shameful situation.

"Concubine Jin has come to question my master Xing for the past few days." Concubine Duan said indifferently.

"Why did your empress say that? But what did your empress know that she has done something wrong to me?" Ling Rong asked back.

"Concubine Jin and Concubine Nian are on good terms, so it's not uncommon for me to suspect that I intentionally hurt you and brother Jiu." Concubine Duan said very calmly.

"Your Majesty is really powerful. People can know the world's affairs by sitting at home." Ling Rong smiled, and changed the subject at random, and said, "Does Your Majesty really have a clear conscience? If it's not Your Majesty, how can others have the opportunity to really hurt you?" To me??"

"..." Concubine Duan's expression froze, she lowered her eyes and did not speak.

"Your Majesty doesn't deny it? Or is it good for your Majesty?" Ling Rong said.

"Concubine Jin is really eloquent, there is nothing wrong with inflicting crimes." Concubine Duan said calmly.

"Actually, whether the empress admits it or not is meaningless to me." Ling Rong stood up and said indifferently.

Concubine Duan looked at it strangely, a little unable to understand the sudden change in the mausoleum's appearance.

"This Pixiang Palace is really big." Ignoring Concubine Duan's gaze, Ling Rong looked around casually, "I don't know if the empress will be afraid when she dreams back at midnight?" Suddenly, Ling Rong turned her head suddenly, her eyes were threatening staring at Concubine Duan.Concubine Duan's expression was as calm as usual, the city mansion was really not comparable to that of ordinary people, and her mausoleum was not discouraged, she just smiled and looked away calmly.

"Back then, you harmed Concubine Hua's child, and in a cycle of karma, you also cut off your own descendants; this time, you hurt my child again. I don't know, what else can you pay me?" Ling Rong said condescendingly Looking down at Concubine Duan who was leaning on the couch, she said coldly.

"Oh, Concubine Jin was joking, with my broken body and deserted palace, what would you want, Concubine Jin." Concubine Duan said calmly looking at Ling Rong.

"Well, you really don't have what I want in you." Ling Rong nodded affirmatively, and said with a smile, "However, I've always been the one who will take revenge."

"Oh? Then what do you want?" Concubine Duan looked at Ling Rong and didn't care.

"I heard that Empress Hua was fed with safflower to end her offspring? I also have a little understanding of medical theory. Although this safflower is not suitable for pregnant women, it will not end offspring. I don't know, Duan Has the concubine ever had any doubts these years? Or, the concubine would rather believe that it was the work of Concubine Hua?" Ling Rong said with a smile.

"What do you want to say?" Concubine Duan's expression finally changed slightly.

"In this harem, not every woman is blessed to be the emperor's heir, especially those who are not allowed by the emperor." Ling Rong looked at Concubine Duan and said meaningfully.

"I am indeed not as blessed as Concubine Jin." Concubine Duan said calmly, her tone already a little stiff.

"Angry? Oh, you hurt someone the emperor loves. How could the emperor allow you to give birth to a child? He didn't take your life. It's because you are obedient and witty enough." Ling Rong said every sentence Heartbroken, even a self-reliant person like Concubine Duan couldn't help but change her face.

"Cough cough cough...you..." Concubine Duan tried her best to keep herself calm, her dilapidated body still betrayed her turbulent heart at the moment.

"Ah, by the way, you said that the emperor knew that the person used your hands to hurt the emperor's heir, how would the emperor deal with her?" Ling Rong leaned close to Concubine Duan's ear, using a voice that only two people could hear. Said: "Will you be the one to take the blame? After all, her face is so similar to that person, so... so rare. Do you think so, Duanfei?"

"You! How do you know so many things?" Concubine Duan's expression changed drastically, and she looked at Ling Rong in horror.

"I know a lot more, such as the emperor's love for Concubine Hua, such as your jealousy of Concubine Hua, such as your self-defeating deeds! You have been deceiving yourself for so many years, but unfortunately, no matter how hard you try, you will never get what you want. If you want, you can only lie to yourself. You are a coward, knowing that the person you love has never had you in his heart, and even resents you in his heart. You are inferior to anyone, you are a person who should not have survived long ago The person you love." Ling Rong continued, "I don't need to take anything from you at all, you have to live well, live to see the person you hate give birth to a child happily, regain the emperor's love, and get everything you ask for. Unworthy stuff."

"You, do you think you can predict everything?" Concubine Duan panted lightly, struggling to refute Ling Rong.

"I don't need to predict everything. This is the truth. Don't you know it yourself? Otherwise, you wouldn't spend so much time doing these things. Don't you just want to see Concubine Hua's position in the emperor's heart? Why, look now It's here, isn't it very heartbreaking." Ling Rong smiled brightly.

"You...cough cough..." Concubine Duan coughed more and more, and could no longer speak a complete sentence.

"Your Majesty, please take care and leave." Ling Rong turned around and left Pixiang Hall in a good mood, leaving Concubine Duan coughing heart-piercingly.

On the second day, there was news that Concubine Duan was seriously ill, but Ling Rong knew that Concubine Duan would not fall down so easily, because the emperor sent someone to comfort Concubine Duan with old feelings in mind, Concubine Duan could still have fantasies .For a person like Concubine Duan, only the emperor can defeat her.
