Qingchuan History

Chapter 459 Hibernation
On the first day of December in the 25th year of Yongkang, when he entered Si, the enthronement ceremony of the Kingdom of Yin began.

From summer to winter, this is the second swift and weird succession event in just half a year.In the past, Princess Yunshui took the throne and gave birth to Qingchuan's first female emperor, but now Suo Ning forced Gong Yingjun to take the Zen throne, and suddenly turned hostility into jade.

More people did not call it an incident, but decided it was an accident.Gein's enthronement ceremony after the heavy snow was really hasty, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty in the Yin Kingdom were as quiet as a silent show.

The old Yingjun who had become Zen was revered as a holy monarch, and he moved to Dailu overnight, and everyone in the palace knew it.Ruan Xueyin went to see him just after dawn, and was told that the Holy Monarch would rest in the middle of the night and hadn't gotten up yet.

The night was long and dreamy, she didn't want to procrastinate, so she simply waited outside the hut.Until the enthronement ceremony began with music outside, no one came out to summon her. She felt that something was wrong, and entered because she was worried about her father's safety.

Ruan Bi lay flat on the bed, sleeping peacefully as expected.Ruan Xueyin approached to see that he was breathing evenly and his expression was the same, and called "Your Majesty" softly a few times.

No answer.She increased the volume, but the other party still didn't wake up, and didn't even turn over when disturbed while sleeping.

She stretched out her hand to hold the other's wrist to take the pulse, and frowned, but she didn't care to lift his eyelids to watch and listen to the breathing rhythm——

After taking the medicine, it can be as short as seven days and as long as half a month, and you will not wake up or die.

A medicine that is unique to Pengxi Mountain.That is, the medicine that is available in the East Palace Medicine Garden.Ruan Xueyin was furious.

"The agreement with His Majesty is to truthfully tell the whole story of the Eastern Palace Medicine Garden, and Xueyin Fang will do his best to help the Yin Kingdom in this campaign. His Majesty will break the contract if he acts like this."

Still no answer.But the teacher once convinced that the person taking this drug is not completely unconscious, and can even hear some human speech, but it is difficult to move if he is not awake.

"First, this garden is definitely not just for alchemy to seek longevity. The notes all over the wall are clearly poisoning experiments, and His Majesty did not tell the truth." She began to say to herself,
"Second, what are the surnames of these four seniors? Your Majesty said that they were all about ten years old when they entered the garden. You picked them from your visits to Qingchuan before entering the East Palace. If you think about it, there must be names? Di, Jin, Yan, Qi , what's your full name?" She paused,

"Which word is my mother?"

The man on the bed slept soundly, Ruan Xueyin always felt that he was not old before.

Take off your clothes and close your eyes, you are fifty, and you are really old.

She hesitated again and again, then suddenly leaned over to his ear and said softly:

"What if I tell Your Majesty that some of them are still alive?" The teacher once said that he was waiting for an ending and asked Jing Tingge and himself to read it for her.

"For some reason, I feel that the end they have been waiting for for more than twenty years is in Suoning City. This is the battle. They will all come. Don't you want to see your old friend again?"

The person on the bed did not respond at all.Ruan Xueyin stared at his face, her eyes covered by her eyelids never turning.

It was especially cold after the snow, and it was considered a sunny day. The sun was not visible, but the sky was extremely bright.Ruan Xueyin left Dailu in a restless mood, the journey was lonely, the palace people shuttled silently between the bamboo grove and the stone path, nothing happened, the enthronement ceremony should go smoothly.

But Ruan Zhong must be busy.The sudden arrival of the new monarch, besides the military officers, there should be many voices supporting him, and more important officials in the court must take care of him.The East Palace has not yet been settled, Ruan Xueyin thinks about what happened last night, and feels that she should go again.

Let’s talk about Fengting Pass.

In the past few years, she came back too few times, and Ruan Bi did not protect this crazy prince very much, and the palace even explicitly prohibited mentioning the old affairs of Cangwu City that year when Tingguan was closed.

It's not what it used to be.The rule of monarchy is easy to change, the most important thing is that it should be time to ask.

She stepped on the thick snow and went back to the steps in front of the East Palace Gate. Just as she took a step, the door opened again.

A woman in fine hair and fine clothes came out, more beautiful and younger than the princess concubine last night.

"Xueyin." The woman smiled so that the surroundings were white and bright, and her whole body was garnet red like a plum blossom in full bloom in December.

The mother and daughter were equally happy. "Madam Shu." Ruan Xueyin nodded.

"I'm afraid I can't be called Mrs. Shu anymore." The woman went down the stairs, and the gold-painted satin shoes were also inlaid with fluffy white fur, walking like lotus flowers at every step. An ignorant woman who treats the current king with disrespect, may be given a white silk and will directly whimper."

She said so, but her face was relaxed and at ease, as coquettish as ever.Ruan Moxi's appearance is longer than his mother's, but his temperament is not as good as Mrs. Shu's by [-]%.

"Madam has gone to Dailu to meet Shengjun?"

"I left early in the morning. Who can save my life except the Holy King?" She walked down the same ladder as Ruan Xueyin, and stared at the vast palace, every word exhaling white steam,
"It's useless. The sage is also pretending to be asleep, and won't care about my life or death. What's the point of being with you for most of your life?"

"I heard that Empress Wei has left and will be back in a few days."

"What's the use of her." The woman snorted, "Mr. Jing is willing to ask Wei Jun to intercede for me." She turned her beautiful eyes slightly, turned to Ruan Xueyin, and turned her whole body,
"Your Majesty Wei Jun's intercession is difficult to make a final decision. It is best for you to speak." Her voice was lower,

"Your Majesty has loved you for many years now, Xueyin, if you ask, you will surely save my life."

Ruan Xueyin's clasped right hand ruthlessly pinched the lower part of her left hand to control her expression.

"I came to the East Palace to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." She stepped back an inch and bowed, "Xueyin will go first."

"The East Palace closed the door to thank guests. I didn't see you when I first entered."

Ruan Xueyin paused, "Why did Madam come to look for the prince?"

"Naturally, to save lives. The palace and the prince are now grasshoppers on the same rope. It is always right to discuss with each other." The woman smiled, "I am afraid that no one can see him except the emperor. You still Let's come together when you are free."

Donggong Medicine Garden and Fengting Pass, there are too many things to know, too many places to talk and walk around.Ruan Xueyin knew that many things were easy to make mistakes, so she stopped going around the palace and went back to Yuju at lunch time.

Yuju has changed a lot.It was only two hours since she went out in the morning, the color of the curtains changed, there were more furnishings, the garden was full of pink and white fragrant flowers and the snow on the ground formed a sea of ​​fragrant snow.

"Back to the Sixth Princess, the people from the Manufacturing Department have moved in like this, and the servants are just looking at it, before you come back to ask for instructions, look——"

The servant girl said at the same time that the man has already knelt down.No one in the entire Yin Palace was familiar with Ruan Xueyin, and the servants served by Yuju these days were all palace servants who came here temporarily.Ruan Xueyin didn't want to embarrass them, so she nodded slightly and said "no problem", and went back to the house after finishing her meal.

Ruan Zhong arrived at night, and the two sat in the front hall drinking tea.In fact, there is nothing to say, and it would be embarrassing to ask some questions, Ruan Xueyin quietly watched the clear tea soup in the cup, and listened to the other party for a long time:

"The people from the Construction Department came to ask me what I like to re-arrange the Yingchen Palace. I don't like anything in particular, so I said a few things casually, and asked them to change the things in Yujuli by the way." He paused for a while,

"No other meaning. After Ruan Bi said that last night, I was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable coming back here. I also heard that a new batch of light-colored fragrant flowers has arrived. Thinking that you like it, I asked them to send them together."

"Thank you. Actually, there's no need." Ruan Xueyin said quietly, "I won't live long, and I'll be returning to Jidu soon. These things should be reserved for other halls. You are the first to ascend the throne, and there will be more halls to decorate in the future."

It was quiet for a while, and the pink and white flowers overflowed with a cold fragrance.

"I never thought of marrying someone else." Ruan Zhong also looked at the tea soup in his cup.

"I just found out today," Ruan Xueyin changed the subject, "So Mrs. Shu knew."

He looked up at her and understood immediately.

"She stood at the gate of the East Palace and whispered to me in front of everyone, so I wondered if Ruan Bi knew too." So she sent a letter until Ji Ji asked her to return home.

Everyone's calculations seem to be long-term. Ruan Xueyin is already confused as to whether this game has moved up to this moment, and where the direction has changed.

"So she probably knows that my surname is not Ruan." Ruan Zhong's complexion changed, apparently murderous.

"Ruan Moxi is coming back, you can't kill her." Ruan Xueyin paused, then asked:
"Have you been to Dailu today?"

"Not yet." I was busy all day, and finally got a moment of vacancy, just wanting to see you.I never said it.

"He escaped too. I completely left this game to you and me."
