The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

Chapter 130.title

"This palace really underestimated her." The queen returned to Jingren Palace, without a smile on her face, she turned her head and ordered Jianqiu, "Immediately ask someone to withdraw, and clean up, so that no one can find any clues. Elder Brother’s arrangement is also cleaned up, so don’t miss out.”

"Yes." Jian Qiu immediately took the order.

The queen sat on the chair tiredly, recalling the moment of trembling in Weiyang Palace, she suddenly laughed lowly.

Unexpectedly, there is such a ruthless character lying in the palace, hiding it really deep enough, Concubine Rong, Concubine Rong, I didn't expect the position of concubine to fall into her hands, it's okay, Concubine Hua, Concubine Guan They are all defeated by her subordinates. If there is another one, I am not afraid that I will not be defeated. The future will be long, so take your time.

The queen restrained her smile, looked at her aging face in the mirror, and suddenly became irritable again.

"It's an eyesore."

Ankang's high fever came and went, and he burned intermittently for half a month. The medicine he had finally fed was spit out in a blink of an eye. He was obviously hot, but he couldn't stop shivering. It hurts to cry.

An Lingrong's heart was about to break, she stayed by the bedside to take care of her, kept wiping her body with the medicine prepared by Zhou Nan, and took the trouble to feed her medicine spoon by spoon, her eyes were red , people have lost weight, but still can't see any improvement in health.

What's worse is that Fenruo and Qin'er, who have been taking care of Ankang closely, also developed fever and rash symptoms one after another, and fell ill one after another. Everyone in Weiyang Palace tightened their scalps and took more protective measures. Be careful, for fear that you will be the next one to be infected.

Time passed day by day, but there was no progress in the treatment.

"Mother, I have a way." Zhou Nan walked over and knelt down in front of An Lingrong, "Smallpox is difficult to cure, but it is not that no one has been cured throughout the ages. In the past few days, the ministers have used medicine to treat the princess, but The princess's vomiting symptoms are too severe, if you can't drink the medicine, it will be difficult to get better, if it drags on, I'm afraid it will be bad."

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, An Lingrong was really in no mood to speculate, and said bluntly: "If there is any way, Imperial Doctor Zhou just say it."

"Your Majesty, if medicine doesn't work, maybe acupuncture can be used for treatment." Zhou Nan said in a deep voice, "It's just that the princess is still young, and it's hard for me to know how deep the needle should go. I need to test the needle on an adult first, and I and a few other imperial physicians will continue to treat it." According to the curative effect, it will be feasible after formulating a set of acupuncture methods suitable for the princess."

"Then test the needle on Ben Gong." An Lingrong said immediately.

Before Zhou Nan could speak, Cuiyin, Dill, and Cardamom at the side hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is so precious, how can you take the risk of testing the needle, let the servants come." The three fought back and forth, but to no avail. .

At this time, Qin'er came out: "Your Majesty, I'd better let the servant to test the needle." She was covered with rashes, and knelt down towards An Lingrong from a distance, and kowtowed, "The servant is taking care of the princess closely, neglecting his duty. Letting the princess suffer from smallpox is already a crime worthy of death, please give the servant a chance to redeem her sins, if the needle test fails, it will be the servant who apologizes with death."

Her forehead hit the ground heavily, and her whole body was filled with a determined will to die.

An Lingrong couldn't help being moved, Qin'er was the one who followed her after she entered the palace and has been with her now. Among the four, Xiaoliuzi quit first, Xiaoshizi died for her, Mo'er betrayed, and only Qin was left behind. Er, now she has to sacrifice for her. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shed tears: "Qin'er, I would like to thank Ankang first."

Qin'er raised her head, tears streaming down her face, she smiled with difficulty, got up and followed Zhou Nan out.

Before leaving, Qin'er glanced back, Cuiyin, Dill, and Cardamom surrounded An Lingrong, like an impenetrable wall, impenetrable by water and needles, if she could Surviving a desperate situation, in the future, there will definitely be a place for her among the three of them - at that time, instead of serving the queen tremblingly, it is better to follow Concubine Rong loyally beside Empress Rong, maybe it will be more beautiful!

A flash of ambition flashed in her eyes, almost covering up the fear caused by the needle test.

An Lingrong waited in the hall for a whole night before Zhou Nan said, "Your Majesty, the needle test was successful."

"Okay, okay..." An Lingrong's tense breath was finally relieved. She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, supported Cuiyin's hand and got up and asked, "How's Qin'er?"

Zhou Nan lowered her head deeply: "Miss Qin'er is not in danger of her life, but her left hand hurts a meridian, and she may not be as flexible as before when she uses it in the future."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's good that I didn't hurt my life." An Lingrong nodded repeatedly, and then said to Cuiyin, "Don't let Qin'er do those rough jobs in the future, just play with Ankang."

"Yes." Cuiyin nodded in response.

That night, after Zhou Nan applied the needles, Ankang's fever subsided in the middle of the night. When dawn broke, she finally opened her eyes and called out "Er Niang" clearly and loudly. An Lingrong immediately burst into tears. Can't stop.

"Your Majesty, the princess is about to recover, it's a good thing." Cuiyin urged quickly.

An Lingrong nodded, and wiped away tears with a handkerchief, but wiped more and more.

However, before they were happy for too long, a little palace maid stumbled over and said, "Young lady, Aunt Fenruo, it's too late..."

"What?" An Lingrong's smile froze on his face, leaving dill and cardamom to take care of Ankang, he walked towards the apse holding Cuiyin's hand.

Fenruo was taken care of by two experienced old imperial doctors. When they saw An Lingrong approaching, they knelt down and pleaded guilty: "My minister is incompetent. This aunt is very old, and she is getting weaker and weaker after being infected with smallpox. There is an old illness, and this time it broke out at the same time, and it has been dragged on until today, and the ministers are already powerless, so please forgive me."

"Auntie." An Lingrong knew that it was the imperial doctor's fault, and after telling them to back off, she took a step forward and took Fen Ruo's hand, "Auntie, it's all my fault that I didn't guard against the actions of those villains, which hurt me." you……"

"Your Majesty, the palace is dangerous, and this servant can no longer accompany you." Fen Ruo was already on her deathbed, and when she returned to the light, she became sober. Tell her everything An Lingrong said, "Your Majesty, remember, be careful of the Queen. Ulanarayixiu has harmed too many people. If your Majesty is not sure, you must not tear yourself apart with her. Back then, Just because Empress Chunyuan occupied the position of Fujin that should belong to her, she held a grudge and killed Empress Chunyuan twice. That is her own sister, she can do anything!"

Fen Ruo's eyes were blurred: "I failed to protect Queen Chunyuan, and now, I can't wait for the day to avenge her..." She looked at An Lingrong, took her hand presumptuously, and said with a sob , "Your Majesty, when this servant first approached you, she really wanted you to avenge Queen Chunyuan, but later... Your Majesty treats this servant well, and this servant always remembers it in her heart. The man has passed away, and everything is in vain. In the past, watching Princess Ankang grow up day by day, the slaves no longer think about the past. Today, I just want to tell the empress... The harem is dangerous, and you must not be too soft-hearted and kind... Otherwise, otherwise... You'll only hurt yourself..."

An Lingrong's tears dripped down, and she nodded as she cried, "I have memorized all my aunt's teachings."

"Okay, okay." Fen Ruo slowly took off her strength, "I have nothing to regret about this servant... For the rest, wait for this servant to go down, and then plead guilty with Empress Chunyuan..."

"It's good, Auntie." Cuiyin bowed on her knees, knocked her head on the ground, and she was wet with tears.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, after the emperor heard the news of Fen Ruo's death, he sat quietly for a long time before instructing Su Peisheng to bury her peacefully: "There is no one in her home. You can ask someone to find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters and bury her."

"Yes." Su Peisheng leaned over and replied, "In addition, Imperial Physician Zhou reported that Princess Ankang's fever has subsided, and she will recover in a few days."

Only then did the emperor show a bit of a smile: "Okay, all the imperial physicians who rescued the princess this time will be rewarded for their merits." After a pause, he continued, "Next month will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Ronger's canonization ceremony for the concubine must be done well." Do it, let the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs hurry up and prepare. By the way, this title has to be changed, Ronger's name has the word 'Rong' in it, it's too casual, I want to give her another title."

The emperor was happy, and Su Peisheng naturally followed suit: "What's the problem? Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs choose a few good ones for the emperor to choose."

"No need." The emperor had already made up his mind, raised his hand and rejected Su Peisheng's proposal, and said instead, "Rong, paulownia, prosperity is called glory, wealth and joy are called glory, so I took the word 'rong'." The emperor Write it down on a piece of paper, and hand it over to Su Peisheng, "Go and tell the queen that on the ninth day of next month, Concubine Rong will perform the canonization ceremony."

Su Peisheng took his orders.

Weiyang Palace, which had been confined for a whole month, finally reopened its gates before August. Because of a smallpox, everything used in the palace had to be replaced. Cuiyin asked people to smash bowls of tea sets, burn bedding and clothes Waiting, while telling the little eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to move this and that, they are too busy.And dill, according to An Lingrong's intention, wrapped thick red envelopes for everyone in the palace, and several imperial physicians, after the emperor rewarded them, they wrapped an extra generous gift, which was properly arranged. .

As for Cardamom, I first went to Chuxiu Palace, Yanqing Palace and Suiyuxuan to report safety.

"Let me take a look, what's wrong?" Concubine Duan was close, and as soon as Dou Kou finished speaking, she entered Weiyang Palace on the back foot, pulling An Lingrong to look left and right, and then let go after confirming that she was safe and sound. He took a deep breath, "You are too impulsive, that's smallpox! For the past month, my heart has been hanging like this, and it hasn't stopped for a moment." She gestured at the mouth of her throat.

"Don't worry, ma'am, I don't dare to joke about my life." An Lingrong smiled reassuringly, "I heard from Cuiyin that people who have been infected with smallpox and recovered will not be infected again. I was infected with smallpox when I was young." Having had smallpox once, that's why I dared to take the risk." She and Cuiyin looked at each other and smiled.

"Okay, don't tell me about such a big matter, and let me worry for so long." Shen Meizhuang also hurried to the door, and when he heard this sentence as soon as he entered the door, he stomped his feet angrily, "It's useless for me to pay back every day." Going to Baohua Hall to pray for you, I am so regretful that my intestines are green."

An Lingrong couldn't help but get up to greet her, and kept admitting her mistake: "It's my fault, I made my sister worry. The incident happened suddenly that day, and then I hurriedly closed the palace door. I really didn't have time to talk to her." Sisters exchanged news, and it was Cuiyin who first mentioned that she had been infected with smallpox when she was a child, and she asked to take care of Ankang, and then I remembered that I also had smallpox when I was a child." She dragged Shen Meizhuang into the hall and sat down.

Of course, Shen Meizhuang wasn't really angry, it was just a joke. Seeing that An Lingrong was safe and sound, she was naturally happy, but in the blink of an eye she became sad again: "It's just that I heard from Dou Kou that Ankang was very ill this time, and after he got well this time, his face is still full of pain. Did you have bean scars? A girl’s family values ​​face the most, so the imperial doctor must prepare the ointment for removing scars.”

An Lingrong patted her hand and signaled her not to worry: "I have seen an ancient prescription called Shuhenjiao, which is the most effective for removing scars. I will prepare it tomorrow, and it will be fine for Ankang to use it for a while. alright."

"That's the best way." Concubine Duan said slowly, "This time you are also a blessing in disguise. The emperor named you Concubine Rong, and the queen was very angry when she found out, but she couldn't spare her hands to deal with you. Right in front of her eyes, she really has no skills at all."

An Lingrong's eyes flashed: "Ma'am, why do you say this?"

Concubine Duan smiled, "Don't lie to me, you two are secretly competing with the queen, I already knew." She patted An Lingrong's hand, "Don't be nervous. You cured my old illness, If you got Wen Yi to be my reliance for the rest of my life, just treat it as my gratitude. This time, Ankang contracted smallpox, and you only took care of her in a panic, so you must have not had time to investigate it carefully, right?"

"Yes, after Ankang was almost recovered, I asked people to investigate, but all traces and evidence were destroyed, and there was no way to investigate." An Lingrong slightly relieved, nodded and said.

"I checked, and the problem is with that maid named Qin'er in your palace." Concubine Duan said slowly.
