The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at Guojun King: "But there are many relatives and nobles in the court. I hope that Yun will be the last one who has the heart of rebellion. After that, all the kings will be able to keep their own place."

King Guo's heart trembled, facing the emperor's almost piercing gaze, the hairs on his back suddenly stood upright, he stabilized his mind, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Others dare not say it, but my brother is the first romantic woman!" I beg you to keep your wealth and honor, and don't let your ministers do such frightening things again." At this moment, he thought about all the possible lies.

"You've already said that, can I not help you?" The emperor smiled faintly.

King Guo twitched the corners of his stiff mouth and smiled: "Brother Xie Huang."

After walking out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he realized that he was covered in cold sweat. When the wind blew, he was so cold that he shivered.Looking up at the cold full moon, King Guo straightened his clothes, gestured to a corner without any trace, and then walked away.

After solving the serious problem in his heart, the emperor instantly relaxed. He leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.

An Lingrong came out from behind the screen, took off his armor and stepped forward, stretched out his hand to rub the acupuncture points for the emperor: "The emperor has a rest and then go to sleep, the night is already deep."

"Rong'er, let's go for a walk with me." The emperor held An Lingrong's hand, his face was full of exhaustion, but his eyes were terribly bright.

"Okay." An Lingrong nodded.

The emperor took An Lingrong up to the tall building of Qianqing Gate, overlooking from here, the entire Forbidden City can be seen, it is indescribably magnificent.

"Ronger, I have never brought anyone here before, you are the first one." The emperor put An Lingrong in his arms and pointed to the distance, "Look, the people are about to start a new day, and they don't even know What happened last night, I spent my whole life doing nothing, but the world I want to protect is the ordinary life of these ordinary people. There may be many things that people don't understand or misunderstand me, but I still have to do it, as long as For me, the Qing Dynasty will last forever."

An Lingrong looked at the emperor's side face, and her heart was extremely touched. At this moment, she felt more intuitively that the man in front of her was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Xing broke through the heart defense so forcefully, and her heart suddenly started beating.

"Your Majesty..." An Lingrong's voice was a little tense, and she was driven by an impulse she had never had before. The moment she was about to speak, a small cold light suddenly flashed in the corner of her eyes.

An Lingrong's hair suddenly stood on end, she suddenly looked up, but saw a vague man in black holding a bow and drawing the string, the quivering sound of the wings of the arrow's tail fell into her ears very clearly at this moment, An Lingrong's eyes widened Before the eyes and brain turn around, the body has already reacted first: "The emperor!!"

"puff!"

A splash of blood exploded in front of the emperor's eyes, and a pitch-black arrow pierced through An Lingrong's heart. She stood in front of the emperor and fell down like a broken butterfly.

"Rong'er—!!" The emperor felt the blood all over his body congeal in an instant, he roared and stretched out his hand to catch An Lingrong, his eyes were filled with scarlet blood.

An Lingrong opened his mouth, but couldn't speak, he stretched out his trembling hand to grab the emperor's skirt, and slowly closed his eyes.

Hearing the movement, Su Peisheng hurriedly brought someone up, took a look, and suddenly his scalp became numb: "There are assassins! Imperial Forest Army, quickly protect the emperor!"

In an instant, the entire Forbidden City was plunged into a whirlpool of panic.

"Clap!"

The book in Zhen Huan's hand fell in shock, and Fang Chunyi, who was drowsy playing dice, was also awakened. She rubbed her eyes and looked over: "Sister Wan, what's wrong?"

Zhen Huan suppressed the restlessness in her heart, forced the corners of her mouth to smile and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy." She glanced at the "Change of Xuanwumen" that fell on the table, and her eyes were filled with indelible sorrow.

"Sister Guan always reads books, and I don't even know what's so good about books." Fang Chunyi and Zhen Huan seemed to be back in the past, intimate, and talked about everything, "Oh, it's autumn, has the emperor sent us away?" Forgot?"

"I told you not to come, but you insisted on following along. Did you think you came to Penglaizhou to become a fairy? If you come with me, your future in the palace will be ruined." Zhen Huan looked at Fang Chunyi, still very vigilant in her heart, The words are quite tentative.

Fang Chunyi's eyes flashed, and she remembered what Su Peisheng said to Zhen Huan when she came to deliver the autumn clothes and bedding some time ago, and she realized that the reason why the emperor punished Zhen Huan to come to Penglai Island was not because of her promise to Miao, but to protect her.Only then did Fang Chunyi suddenly realize, and she became more determined in her heart to make friends with Zhen Huan.

She lowered her head slightly, biting her lower lip and said aggrievedly: "Sister Guan and I have been estranged for so long, I'm afraid it's been a long time since I paid attention to Chun'er. Once I was favored, and then suddenly fell out of favor, everyone in the palace laughed at me." Me, say I'm treacherous, but the bamboo basket fetches water in vain. Everyone abuses me, and all the maids and servants dare to show me face. Sister Wan, I'm really having a hard time. Every time I go to you, I'm stopped Outside the door, so many people looked at me and shut the door. It was really embarrassing and sad. I couldn't figure out how to offend my sister, and my sister never gave me a chance to defend myself. If it was for the emperor, the people in the palace Everyone is the emperor, why can't I?"

She looked at Zhen Huan sadly: "Sister, do you know that this time I was favored, I was humiliated by Miao's promise again and again, even though my position was higher than hers, she relied on her favor to treat me as a lowly person. How ugly it sounds, I have no one to talk to, I can only swallow it by myself. Instead of wasting time in the palace, it is better to come to Penglai Island with my sister, it is also pure."

Zhen Huan's eyes moved slightly, and Fang Chunyi hurriedly got up and knelt down in front of her, crying, "Sister Wan, do you really want Chun'er? Chun'er was with her sister when she first entered the palace, and she always misses her and thinks about her, Chun'er just wants to ask, what is the reason why my sister doesn't like me so much?"

Looking at Fang Chunyi's tear-stained face, the line of defense in Zhen Huan's heart slowly loosened.

Penglai Island is remote and deserted, and the life here is peaceful and lonely, so Fang Chunyi and Zhen Huan don't pay much attention to dressing up most of the time, and they just simply wash up every day.

Today, Fang Chunyi's face was not covered with makeup, her round almond eyes glistened with water, like a lost deer, timid and aggrieved, just like the night when Xin Chang was imprisoned by Yu Shi in the Punishment Department, she took Xue Ye's Han Qi ran to Suiyuxuan, plunged into Zhen Huan's arms and cried, just like the first time I saw her.

"Chun'er, you..." Zhen Huan hesitated for a moment, met her eyes, "You get up first."

"Chun'er can't get up." Fang Chunyi cried pear blossoms with rain, "My sister told Chun'er, what did Chun'er do wrong, and Chun'er must correct it. If my sister doesn't like the emperor's doting on Chun'er, Chun'er will not see the emperor in the future. I just beg my sister not to want Chun'er."

Her repeated nicknames touched Zhen Huan's memories, and she sighed heavily: "Chun'er, I am not angry that you are favored by the emperor, but I am angry that you kept it from me. If you are favored, I will be happy." Yes, why did you secretly learn to dance behind my back?" After a pause, he continued, "That's all, why did the silk fan you gave me be contaminated with purslane juice? After I had a miscarriage, why did you put it Replace the aromatherapy ball with the silk fan that Rong'er gave me?" Thinking of the child who died in vain, Zhen Huan's eyes filled with mist, "It is because I often used the fan you gave me during pregnancy that my mother became weak and knelt in Yikun Palace. The miscarriage occurred in less than half an hour. You used purslane to hurt me first, and then you intended to blame Rong'er later, what else can you say?"

Fang Chunyi cried for a while, with a dazed and helpless expression on her face: "Why did the purslane make my sister weak? Isn't that used to repel mosquitoes?"

"Miss Wanwan, I really wronged my young master!" Suyun kneeled on the side and cried, "Pursanula can repel mosquitoes. This is what I told Zhengui, and I used this at home before." Fangzi, that day the young master said that the silk fan I made was not as beautiful as that made by Concubine Rong, so I thought of some other ingenuity, and the servant came up with this idea. I never thought of harming your child. She sobbed and wiped away her tears, "As for the aromatherapy ball, it has nothing to do with Mrs. Zhengui. It was that night, the servant accidentally dropped the brocade box containing the fan, and the chain of the aromatherapy ball was broken. The servant was afraid. Being punished, I tied it back on my own initiative. Maybe it was too dark at night, so I don’t know if I tied it wrong. After all, the three fans were all put in the same box. But this matter has nothing to do with my little master. Zhengui has nothing to do with it. I don't know."

Zhen Huan never thought that the truth of the matter would be like this. For a while, she didn't know who to blame.

"Sister Wan, please scold me and hit me. It was because I thought I was smart and did something bad with good intentions, which hurt my sister's child." Fang Chunyi burst into tears, holding Zhen Huan's knee, tears and snot dripping down, crying like A child, "I even gave a gift to my nephew, and I was waiting for her to call me aunt, how could I hurt him! Sister Wan, it was Chun'er who made a mistake, so don't be angry with Chun'er, okay?"

"Concubine Guan, it's all the servant's idea. If you can't get angry, the servant will pay for the life of the unborn little brother." Suyun wiped her face, turned her head and stood up, about to slam into the pillar.

Cui Jinxi was so frightened that she immediately dropped the simmered taro in her hand, blocked Suyun's momentum with her body, and Liuzhu and Juqing pulled behind her, finally stopping her.

The hall suddenly became chaotic, and Zhen Huan's mind was muddled. Hearing Fang Chunyi's cry, and seeing Suyun's determination to learn from death, she finally softened and said, "Chun'er, get up." She stopped her tears Yi, took out a handkerchief and wiped Fang Chunyi's crying face, and said in a choked voice, "It's all over, forget it."

Fang Chunyi stood up sobbing, and shrank to Zhen Huan's side: "Sister Wan, what should we do if we can only stay here for the rest of our lives?"

"No." Zhen Huan said in a low voice, hugging Fang Chunyi and gently coaxing, "After a few days, the emperor calms down, and he will send someone to pick us up and return to the palace. Don't worry." Remembering the emperor's entrustment, even if her heart was broken at the moment, she did not let go.

Fang Chunyi leaned on Zhen Huan's shoulder, keeping secrets in her eyes.

Two days later, Liu Zhu and Ju Qing took advantage of the sunshine and took the quilts out to dry. Zhen Huan sat on the rock under the tree as usual, looking at the lake in the distance. Standing up, she subconsciously put her hand into her sleeve, firmly grasping the dagger that the emperor gave her for self-defense.

Not being fully sure of everything, life and death, fear of accidents, this is not a blessing or a curse, if it is evil that invades the righteous, she will never live.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Cui Jinxi looked at Zhen Huan holding the dagger, was startled, and reached out to grab it.

Zhen Huan hid, and made a death wish: "If this ship was sent by Prince Dun, if I live, I will suffer all kinds of humiliation and torture. Instead of this, I would rather die." She tremblingly grasped the handle of the dagger, " The emperor is everything to me, my dignity, life and death, honor and disgrace are all given by him, if he loses, I will go with him."

Looking up, Zhen Huan seemed to have made up her mind, and took two steps towards the lake.

The ship slowly leaned against the shore, and the guards on the ship did not move, only Xiao Xiazi came out from behind, went ashore and knelt in front of Zhen Huan: "Your Majesty, it's done."

Zhen Huan's body softened, the dagger in her hand fell off, and hit the ground with a "dang", she wept with joy, and couldn't help crying: "Is the emperor all right?"

"Yes, your majesty is all right, and the dragon is in good health." Xiao Xiazi's face was not happy, and his expression was heavy, "Prince Dun ordered someone to assassinate him secretly, and the empress Rong was seriously injured by defending the emperor from arrows, and she has not yet escaped from danger. Your majesty Concerned about the empress, I will send a special order to let the slaves come to pick up the empress and noble lady Zhen to return to the palace, the empress should hurry up."

Zhen Huan's face suddenly changed: "What?!"

On the way back, Xiao Xiazi explained the specific details to Zhen Huan one by one. In just a few words, it can still be seen that the situation was dangerous at that time, and Zhen Huan couldn't help suspending her heart.

"Concubine Rong was injured too badly. The arrow pierced through her heart and got stuck between the bones. Any deviation of an inch would hurt her heart and lungs, and it would be difficult to recover." Xiao Xiazi said, "Because of this, no one can recover. People dared to draw arrows to heal their wounds, the emperor was furious, and he has been guarding Concubine Rong for three days."

Zhen Huan's heart sank slowly, and for a while, she didn't know whether to worry about An Lingrong, or feel sad for the emperor's reaction.

Xiao Xiazi continued: "After the Queen Mother learned about it, she asked Aunt Zhuxi to go out of the palace to invite Mrs. Meng Guogong, but Mrs. Guogong worshiped the Buddha devoutly and did not ask about common matters. Before the slave left the palace, he had not heard the news of her entering the palace."

"Mrs. Meng Guogong?" Zhen Huan was a little puzzled.

"Yes, Mrs. Meng Guogong used to be a national female doctor." Xiao Xiazi said.
