The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

Chapter 14.Acacia

An Lingrong took the letter from the family tremblingly, his feet went limp, and he slumped on the couch.She was not very literate, but she didn't want to be called a letter-reading eunuch, so she stumbled through the letter and understood the gist of it, so she couldn't breathe for a while.

Dill and cardamom were terrified, and hurriedly comforted An Lingrong.

When this breath fell, An Lingrong was full of distress, rubbing the letter on his chest, and weeping dully.Tears wet the letter drop by drop. She cried until she almost fainted. For a while, she only felt that the sky was dark and the sun and the moon were dark.

Dill and cardamom looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort them. The cry was low and earnest, but it made people feel that the heart had been hollowed out, lonely, empty, and densely painful.

Today is the Shangsi Festival on the third day of March, also known as Daughter's Day. It was originally a day of joy and joy, but she ended up in a situation where mother and daughter are separated by yin and yang. The lord met the emperor by chance in the imperial garden, and was promoted to be a nobleman." Everyone in the courtyard was happy, but she was the only one who was committed in the darkness, no matter how brilliant the sun could shine.

An Lingrong raised his teary eyes, and through the window, he saw from a distance the servants of the main hall kneeling in two rows, and the emperor appeared at the door of Suiyuxuan holding Zhen Huan with a shy face in his arms. He smiled and praised Liuzhu for being clever , and then carried Zhen Huan into the main hall.

An Lingrong felt as though his heart was being strangled.

It turned out that it was not God who gave her the opportunity to redeem her sins, but her mother, taking advantage of her reincarnation in the past, gave her a new life again.

That being the case, what right does she have to feel dejected here.

The queen is unreliable, the concubine Hua is unreliable, Zhen Huan is fledgling now, let alone a good one to rely on, the only one who can rely on is herself.

She wants to be favored, but also to be favored!
"Dill, go to contact shopkeeper Xun and bring in some good rouge powder. Cardamom, go and draw up a prescription for recuperating my body." An Lingrong wiped away his tears and put Throwing the letter into the stove and burning it to ashes, she looked at Dill, "You should pay more attention to Xia Xu in the past few days, I want to find a chance to talk to her."

Seeing An Lingrong's decadent demeanor swept away, Dill looked at Cardamom and said with a smile, "Yes."

There was an unusually bright light in An Lingrong's eyes, shining in the darkness.

"My lord, this morning, Yu Guan's daughter was trying to be rude to the nobleman in the imperial garden, and happened to be caught by the emperor, who immediately reprimanded her, moved her out of the Zhongcui Palace, and sent her to live in the Yinghua Palace. ’” Cardamom regained her lively appearance, running around to inquire about news.

After An Lingrong finished drinking the black chicken soup, he wiped the corners of his mouth.

Suiyuxuan was silent for more than half a year, but suddenly it became lively. Xiao Yunzi was promoted to be the chief eunuch, and she was busy receiving people who came to Suiyuxuan to give gifts all afternoon.

While he was busy, Su Peisheng's apprentice Xiao Xiazi led the people in, saluted Zhen Huan and said, "As soon as the emperor returns to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he will order the servants to deliver things to the nobleman of Guan." Flattery, and then a gift, "Here are a pair of gold lace sachets, a pair of cloisonné bracelets, a box of gold-encrusted stone orchids, two boxes of Ruyi palace flowers, a Ruyi bead curtain, and sixteen pieces of silk and satin of various colors." After finishing, he held up the box in his hand and said, "The last thing is specially explained by the emperor, please be sure to see it personally."

Zhen Huan came out holding a tube of long Xiao, and unconsciously showed a bright smile on her face.

An Lingrong stood far away on the porch, looking at her smile, there was no envy or jealousy in his heart, only sadness.Sad that she plunged headlong into the vortex of love, sad that she fell in love with an emperor.

"It's not appropriate to thank you when you're sick. Please, father-in-law, thank the emperor for me." Zhen Huan said to Xiao Xiazi with a smile, and when she looked up and saw An Lingrong, her face beamed with joy, "Sister Rong, do you feel better today?"

An Lingrong walked forward slowly, and saluted Zhen Huan: "I haven't congratulated you yet."

Zhen Huan hurriedly walked down the steps and grabbed her: "You and my sisters don't need these vain rituals."

Xiao Xiazi bowed and saluted: "The emperor knows that the two young masters of Suiyuxuan are not fully recovered. The coming and going of the young masters hinders the young masters from recuperating. Except for the imperial doctor and the emperor, they have to thank guests behind closed doors. Please invite Cui My aunt will take care of it."

Cui Jinxi nodded and said: "The emperor is considerate."

Xiao Xiazi then withdrew.

An Lingrong gave Dou Kou a wink, and Dou Kou quietly hid aside and went out with Xiao Xia Zi, while she herself was led into the main hall by Zhen Huan, she just sat down and didn't say a few words. Bi said that Shen Meizhuang was here.

Shen Meizhuang has been thriving recently, and among the newcomers, she is the only one who is still favored by the emperor. She is wearing a light purple palace dress today, with a pair of white pearl earrings, and a string of black pearl tassels hangs from her bun. He held Zhen Huan's hand gracefully and said, "Sister Huan, you can finally stand out."

An Lingrong stood up and gave up his seat, allowing the two nobles to sit together, while he apologized and left.

"Sister Rong is in better spirits today, and she came out for a walk." Shen Meizhuang looked at An Lingrong's leaving back and said.

Zhen Huan also nodded: "Yes, I said the same thing."

Just one sentence, Shen Meizhuang put it aside, and turned to talk about Zhen Huan: "The ancients said, if you don't make a song, it's enough. If you make a blockbuster, you are the one who said it. I haven't heard you mention it before. I am in the palace. Sitting in the middle, when I first heard about this, I thought it was a rumor!" Seeing that Zhen Huan just laughed, Shen Meizhuang teased again, "I believed it because it was the decree from Mrs. Su, and I came to find you right away."

Said, Shen Meizhuang frowned again: "But, how many pairs of eyes will stare at you from now on, you have to be careful."

"I know." Zhen Huan nodded seriously.

"I heard that Yu Guan's daughter was reprimanded by the emperor and sent to the Hall of Yinghua?" Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan, a little worried, "She is used to holding grudges, I heard that when she fell out of favor, Xiao Xiazi just held her own. The rules told her that the emperor had no time to see her when he was receiving the king of Guojun, so he turned around and returned to his favor, so he asked Xiao Xiazi to peel the walnuts with his bare hands, so that his hands were covered with blood. Today, she was reprimanded by the emperor because of you, I am afraid she will hold grudges It's you."

Zhen Huan smiled lightly: "Ms. Yuguan is at fault. But," she paused, and looked at Shen Meizhuang, "I am worried that one day, I will be in trouble just like Mrs. Yuguan. Wouldn't it be that I will hurt the whole family of Zhen's family? ?”

There was also a trace of worry in Shen Meizhuang's eyes: "Now you are being favored, and there is no way to escape, but fortunately, with the emperor's favor, it is better than you alone?" She stretched out her hand to hold Zhen Huan's hand, her face streaming A little bit of ambition, "As long as you and my sister are of the same heart, we will definitely be able to stand tall in the palace."

It's just that they didn't expect that the accident would come so quickly.

The first person who noticed something was wrong was the cardamom beside An Lingrong. She was proficient in medicine and poisoning, so when the soup was mixed with something else, she could smell it by shrugging her nose.

"My lord, don't drink it, there is something wrong with this medicine." Cardamom stopped An Lingrong from taking the medicine, took a sip from the medicine bowl and spit it out, "It's bitterer than yesterday's medicine, someone tampered with it. "

An Lingrong's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, she only wanted to regain her favor, so why is it that some people can't wait to attack her?But after thinking about it calmly, she shook her head again, probably not for her.

"In the morning, Eunuch Huang from the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a new batch of palace servants. The nobles from Guan arranged to do rough work, and even adjusted the work on our side. Originally, the master's medicine was made by Qin'er. I just changed someone named Huasui today, could it be her?" Dill immediately began to conspiratorially speculate, "Master, do you want to check the details of this Huasui?"

An Lingrong nodded, remembering that in her previous life, Zhen Huan was indeed poisoned, and that Huasui was the maidservant of Yu Guan's daughter, and in fact, she worked for Concubine Hua.

Suddenly, I heard a movement outside, the people in the main hall stood neatly at the door of Suiyuxuan, and Zhen Huan stood in the middle.

After a while, the emperor's driver appeared at the door.

"My Majesty is blessed and safe."

The emperor walked a few steps quickly, took Zhen Huan up personally, sized her up, and praised: "Clear water produces hibiscus, which can be carved naturally. My nobleman in Guan is really different."

"The emperor doesn't dislike the quality of his concubine Pu Liu." Zhen Huan was shy and timid.

Looking at her, the emperor felt refreshed physically and mentally. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Huanbi behind her. He saw that she was dressed in blue, and her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Zhen Huan. He also praised her a few words and learned that this was Zhen Huan's dowry. Sighing "No wonder", she dragged Zhen Huan into the main hall.

An Lingrong stood by the window, watching Huanbi get up, and the flash of complacency on his face, secretly remembering it.

Thinking about it, Huanbi's life experience is not simple, that's why she always claims to be superior to others.

"Dill, make up for me." An Lingrong said lightly.

The emperor talked to Zhen Huan in the main hall for a long time, and when he was about to leave, he was still reluctant to let go, and told her to take care of her body, and Zhen Huan leaned over to thank her.

Just as he was about to leave, the corners of his eyes were attracted by a touch of pure white. The emperor looked over and saw An Lingrong standing in the porch in white clothes, his frail body was shaken by the wind. Seeing the emperor looking over, he slowly bent over Going down to salute, revealing a neck as white as snow, the voice drifted over softly: "The concubine sees the emperor, the emperor is blessed and safe."

This sound, like a drop of water in the eyes of a mountain spring, fell heavily into the emperor's heart, and the emotion of pity spread round and round.

The emperor turned around, walked in front of her, and helped her up: "Your hands are so cold, why are you still standing here to blow the wind?"

An Lingrong let the emperor pull her into the dormitory, and said softly and weakly: "I know that my illness is not cured, and it is not suitable to face the saint, but I heard the emperor's voice today, and I really miss it. I just wanted to take a look at it from a distance to be satisfied." It's over, you shouldn't bother the emperor."

The sleeping hall was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance, which was not offensive, and the emperor pulled her to sit down on the couch.

"Looking at you today, your complexion has improved a lot. At the beginning of the month, I heard that your mother died of illness. I thought you were weak, and I was afraid that you would get worse. I hesitated whether to tell you. Later, thinking about it, you should Pure and filial, if you keep it from you, it will be even more painful for you to find out in the future, so someone handed you the family letter." When the emperor Xu Xu talked about it, An Lingrong was very touched.

"Your Majesty, how would you know..."

Embarrassment and guilt appeared on the emperor's face: "Nian Gengyao made great achievements, and Concubine Hua is domineering. She made things difficult for you in the palace. I have no way to protect you. I can only make you wronged. But Ronger, I have something in my heart." You, everything about you is on my mind. I know how well you eat every day, whether you are seriously ill, and whether you sleep well. A few days ago, you cried so much because of your mother's death. I'm sad, I'm also very worried, I asked Imperial Physician Wen to add several tonics for you, and I don't know if you have taken it or not."

An Lingrong could hear tears streaming down her face: "Your majesty...the concubine thought that the emperor had already forgotten about the concubine..."

The emperor sighed, and held An Lingrong's hand: "I rarely care about a woman so much." He patted An Lingrong's hand, and said slowly, "I like you to sing, and when you sing, I can always sing." Sleep peacefully all night. When you are not serving me by my side, I never sleep peacefully, and I am tired of listening to Mrs. Yu's singing every night."

An Lingrong blinked lightly, tears rolled down her eyes, causing the emperor to raise his hand to wipe her tears.

She said calmly: "The matter of Yu Guan's daughter is an interesting story. I heard that the emperor met her in the plum garden on New Year's Eve. He didn't see her, only heard her voice, and he took her into the harem after hearing her read a poem. I thought she was a younger sister full of poems and books, but I didn't expect..." Seeing the emperor's expression was a little strange, she continued, "But when it comes to poems and books, the concubine thinks that sister Wan is more proficient, after all, she is a lady from the official family."

The emperor didn't show it on the surface, but An Lingrong knew that he already had seeds of doubt in his heart.

This kind of thing can be found out after a little investigation. The emperor just doesn't want to investigate it. Just like Zhen Huan pretending to be sick, the emperor may not be unable to see it, but he is just happy to act with her.

The black and white of things are often just the emperor's thoughts.

　Although I like big fat oranges very much, the emperor is really scumbag.
