There is no phoenix

Shui Ruoyang hurriedly asked: "Silly girl, what are your special thoughts? Did you enter the palace just to be an ordinary maid? Or did you enter the palace to repay your master?"

Li Bing looked at Shui Ruoyang and said: "Your Majesty, you are so kind to Binger, but Binger feels ashamed now. Your Majesty, if Binger is wrong, will the Emperor forgive Binger?"

Shui Ruoyang straightened Li Bing's hair on his forehead with his hands, and said softly: "Girl, since you have already said that I am your husband, then I only hope that you will tell me the truth. What do I ask you?" , you should seriously answer me and your husband, okay?"

Li Bing nodded and said: "Bing'er is now telling the emperor that Binger has not told the emperor all the truth."

Shui Ruoyang asked: "So you have family members, don't you? Didn't you come here in place of someone else?"

Li Bing said: "Your Majesty, Bing'er told you that I came here on behalf of others, but I didn't want to repay my master, but I asked him for help, because I wanted to enter the palace myself."

Shui Ruoyang asked puzzledly: "Bing'er, did you enter the palace to be a court lady? Or to be a favored concubine?"

Li Bing shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I didn't enter the palace to be a court lady, nor to be a favored concubine. Bing'er entered the palace because she wanted to find someone."

After hearing this, Shui Ruoyang looked at Li Bing's face and asked in surprise, "What? Girl, did you enter the palace to find someone? Who are you looking for?"

Li Bing looked at Shui Ruoyang quietly, tears slowly filled his eyes, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, Binger will tell you now that Binger used to have a very happy family. My old grandmother was very kind, and my mother often Doing good and accumulating virtue, my father is still a member of the government, and my elder brother is well-read in poetry and books, and he is determined to win a fame with his true talents and learning."

Seeing that Li Bing could finally talk about his family affairs, Shui Ruoyang hurriedly said: "Girl, tell me, I will listen carefully!"

Li Bingdao: "Because I have been sick since I was a child, and I couldn't get better after seeking medical treatment and taking medicine. My family asked someone to tell a fortune, saying that I would go to a temple or nunnery to rest until I was 15 years old, so my parents sent me to a mountain on the mountain. Taoist retreat. On the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was 13 years old, my mother and my brother came to the mountain to give me and my master a festival. My brother told me that he had already appointed a sister-in-law, who is very beautiful and understands poetry and books, and has a kind heart. , so I begged my mother and elder brother to take me back when they marry my sister-in-law, and both mother and elder brother nodded in agreement. So I look forward to the news of my elder brother marrying my sister-in-law every day."

Li Bing burst into tears when he said this, and he choked up, bowed his head and couldn't continue.

Shui Ruoyang quickly saw Li Bing hugging her with his hands, patted Li Bing's shoulder lightly, and asked, "Then something happened to your family? Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Bing lay on Shui Ruoyang's chest, and continued in pain: "One day in December of that year, my father came to see me suddenly. He was dressed in dust and haggard, his hair and beard were messy, and he seemed to be more than ten years old. He gave some money to Master and me, and said that he was going to take up a job in a faraway place. He also said that my grandma, my mother, and my brother and sister-in-law had already gone there by car, and told me to follow Master in the future and not go back to my original home. , said that the house has been sold. When my father left, he repeatedly asked me to listen to what the master said. Two years later, I found out that the last time my father came to see me was because my grandma, my mother, my brother and sister-in-law all died. My father disregarded the world of mortals, maybe he became a monk, maybe he died."

After hearing this, Shui Ruoyang suddenly asked in shock: "Girl, are you from Chang'an? Is your sister-in-law called Brother Jin?"

Li Bing heard Shui Ruoyang's words, looked up at Shui Ruoyang, and asked full of doubts: "Your Majesty, you know my family affairs?"

After Li Bing finished speaking, he covered his face with both hands, and wept bitterly.

Shui Ruoyang saw that Li Bing was crying with his hands covering his face, he hugged Li Bing tightly in his arms, patted Li Bing lightly with his hands a few times and said: "Girl, I have made you feel wronged, if you feel uncomfortable, you can speak up." Let's cry. Let me tell you, I knew about this a few months ago. Don't worry, I will give you an account of your family's affairs. Now you also know that Concubine Xiande is going to give birth soon. She was 13 years old. The palace has a child now, and this child is my own flesh and blood. I understand now that you entered the palace to find her, right? But since last year, you should have had many opportunities, but you didn’t do it, do you know? , Concubine Xiande is innocent? The benevolence in you comes from your parents, elder brother, and your master. You are full of hatred, but in the end it was suppressed by your benevolence, right?"

Seeing that Shui Ruoyang had expressed his thoughts, Li Bing slowly stopped sobbing and said, "But your majesty, Bing'er is not the kind of person with a lot of people, because she can't avenge her family, Bing'er is so sad that she often sleeps all night long." Only in the past few days, Bing'er slept better."

Shui Ruoyang sighed and said, "Girl, I tell you that the Jia Mansion is not only related to your family's misfortune, but also related to many cases. Don't worry, I promise you, I will give you an account of your family's affairs. But , Concubine Xiande should be innocent, so don't look for her yet. The child in her womb is even more innocent, don't you think? Yunguang has already ransacked the house and punished him. Since there are still many cases in Jia's mansion, I asked the prince to still investigate. Girl, I heard what you said just now, so your father should still be alive, right?"

Li Bingdao: "Don't worry, your majesty, Bing'er was a child. My father taught me to be a pure and innocent person, and my master taught me to be kind. First seek revenge on the lady in the palace of Jia’s mansion, but my master forbids it. The master asked me to swear that I will never hurt innocent people, so he let me enter the palace. Knowing about Concubine Xiande, I have been hesitating until the emperor met me. The emperor can rest assured, now that the emperor said that he will give Binger an explanation, then Binger will not think about anything else, and will listen to the emperor from now on."

After hearing this, Shui Ruoyang patted Li Bing on the back with satisfaction, and comforted him: "Girl, don't worry, I think your father should still be alive, and I will send someone to find out. Listen, you are still in your family." Such an outstanding daughter, as long as you live up to it, if you can give birth to a royal son for me, I will make him the king of Chang'an, and the fief will be in Chang'an County. At that time, the royal residence will choose the original place of your family; Choose a surname Li to inherit the incense of your Li family. If you give birth to me as a princess, I will also make her Princess Chang'an, and the future son-in-law's mansion will also be built in Chang'an County."

After hearing this, Li Bing couldn't help crying again, looked at Shui Ruoyang's face and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Bing'er will not make things difficult for you. Bing'er only hopes that she can stay with the Emperor well in the future. Binger is willing to share the sorrow and joy with the emperor. If Binger is the same as before, I don’t want the emperor to make any promises!"

But in the Rongguo Mansion, because of the poem that Yuan Chun borrowed from the pear, except for Li Wan who understood it and was prepared, everyone else was just worried, but couldn't think of any proper solution.Because most people are guessing the vigilance meaning of this poem, but no one pays attention to the meaning of those boxes of ginseng and angelica.

These gifts from Yuan Chun were packed by Yuan Duck. Although Yuan Duck seemed to understand the poem, but thinking about the things Yuan Chun gave, she always felt that it was different.

The next day, Yuanyang made an excuse that he wanted to go outside to buy thread, and that it was cold and wanted to make some thicker shoes and socks for Jia Mu.Jia Mu sighed: "Yuanyang, you are the only one who cares about me now. It's cold now, go out and buy everything you want, so you don't have to go out again next time."

Yuanyang nodded and said: "Old lady, don't worry, I know. I will be back soon after I go out!"

Jia Mu said again: "Yuanyang, I'll let them all come here in the afternoon to discuss the news from the empress. You go out now and check around to see if there is anything bad about our house."

Yuanyang agreed, and then explained a few words to Amber, then turned and went into her own room, wrapped up a few pairs of shoes and socks and two sets of underwear, and came out through the back door as before.

Yuanyang went to Li Xun's place first, and seeing that the door was locked, she knew that Li Xun must be on duty in the palace, so she unlocked it and walked in.

Compared with previous visits, this time Yuanyang saw that Li Xun's house had some new furniture, and the weeds in the yard had been removed very cleanly.However, Yuanyang saw that there was still a quilt and bed sheet soaked in the yard, so Li Xun must have left in a hurry and hadn't had time to wash it.

Yuanyang then put down her burden, brought a low stool, filled two buckets of water, washed and dried the quilt, helped Li Xun clean up the room, wrote a note, turned around and went out, still locking the door.

Yuanyang bought something and was about to return to Jia's mansion when a voice behind said: "Sister Yuanyang, wait a minute!"
