The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

Chapter 168.dominate

The Queen Mother was stunned for a while, and it took her a while to realize: "It turns out that this is why you killed Ankang." Her heart sank all the way, "Ankang is gone, and the imperial concubine has been crying all day long, and now she is delirious. , even if she has a prince under her knees, and even if her mother’s family is prosperous, it will not pose any threat to you.”

The queen put on a smile and advised: "Empress Huang, no matter how angry you are, you have no choice but to help me become my concubine, and you will also help yourself."

"Okay, okay." The Queen Mother was so angry that her fingertips were trembling, "Now you can stand alone and dominate the palace."

"Of course I have to thank Huang'e Niang for her hard teaching and careful care over the years. I am deeply grateful." The queen bowed deeply and then said worriedly, "Huang'e Niang has been seriously ill for a long time, so there is really no need to worry about me anymore. , it is important to take good care of your health, lest the emperor becomes suspicious again, it is because of Longkodo that the emperor's mother is ill."

The Queen Mother was extremely angry, but she just closed her eyes to hold back the tears, and kept nodding: "You are indeed becoming more and more like a queen. The Ai family hopes that you can firmly take the position of Queen, but more importantly, I want to tell you," the Queen Mother turned to He looked at the queen and seriously advised her one last time, "You must leave room for success in life and deeds. If you rush to kill them all, you will cut off your own path."

"Thank you very much for your teaching." The queen's eyes were full of ridicule, "With Huang's mother as an example, I will definitely be able to excel. Huang'e Niang will be at ease." After saying that, she stood up and left, "If there is nothing else to do, , then I will retire first."

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and didn't want to look at her again. After she left, she opened her eyes and laughed to herself: "Zhuxi, look, the children taught by the Ai family." She seemed to remember the past, "Chun Yuan is too soft-hearted, Yi Xiu is too cruel, Ai Jia..." There is nothing we can do.

"Queen Mother, you should pay more attention to your health." Zhu Xi hurriedly stepped forward to help the Queen Mother, and it took a while for the Queen Mother to stop coughing.

"It's not that the Ai family doesn't pay attention to their own health, it's because they're afraid that if Yixiu continues like this, both the Ulanala clan and the Wuya clan will be ruined in her hands." The Queen Mother gasped and said intermittently, "Why don't the Ai family want the Qing Dynasty?" The queen has always been from her own family, but if there is no one in the palace to compete with her, her viciousness will drive herself to death and all Aixinjueluo's heirs to death." She stretched out her hand to hold Zhu Xi, "Tomorrow, you go there in person Look at the imperial concubine, if her mind is still clear, please ask her to come over."

Zhuxi lowered his head and accepted the order.

In the afternoon of the next day, An Lingrong came to Shoukang Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother: "I would like to send my regards to the Queen Mother. I wish the Queen Mother a long and healthy life."

"Your concubine looks much better today. How have you slept and eaten recently?" The Queen Mother waved her to sit in front of her, took her hand and asked warmly. Seeing that she looked fine, she thought she was fine for a moment. It's already fine. "Why didn't Honghao come with him? The Ai family hasn't seen him for a few days."

An Lingrong's eyes were straight, and he was stunned for a long time before looking at the Queen Mother in confusion: "Who is Honghao?"

The Queen Mother pursed her lips and looked up at Dill and Zhao Xuan behind her. Seeing that they just shook their heads and sighed, her heart dropped every inch.She looked at An Lingrong and said slowly: "Thank you for your hard work these past two years, Concubine, you have done a great job."

Over the years, the Sixth Palace has been divided into two forces. An Lingrong and the Queen are evenly matched, balancing each other, so that the harem can be peaceful and worry-free. Therefore, the Queen Mother likes An Lingrong and appreciates it more, but in the end she cannot Counting on it.The Queen Mother sighed inwardly, thinking about who should be promoted to the throne to face the Queen.

Concubine Hui passively avoids favor, Concubine Duan suffers from chronic illness, and Concubine Jing is too gentle and kind, and they are no match for the queen.

"The Queen Mother has been ill for so many days, and the Emperor is very worried. Recently, he often goes out of the palace to go to Ganlu Temple to offer incense and pray for the Queen Mother. His filial piety touches God. The Queen Mother's illness will definitely get better soon." An Lingrong seemed to say unintentionally. Lift.

"The emperor is interested." The queen mother said lightly, not paying much attention to it.

An Lingrong didn't say much, and turned to talk about something else: "When I got up early, I seemed to hear someone reading. The way of a university is to be clear and virtuous, to be close to the people, to stop at the best, and to know that there is stability after stopping to get married. , you can be calm after getting engaged, you can be at peace after getting married, you can think about it after getting married, and you can get something after thinking about getting married. Things have their beginnings and ends, things have their beginnings and endings, and knowing the order of things is the shortest way... What I am reading is the opening chapter of "The Great Learning" ." She raised her lips and smiled at the Queen Mother, "The third elder brother has already passed his prime years, but I am surprised, why are you still reading this article?"

The Queen Mother nodded and said: "That's the fourth elder brother. He has been in the imperial examination for two years and has never taught formally. When he was mourning for Ankang, he also rushed over from the Old Summer Palace. The Ai family remembered this incident when they saw him. , so he arranged for him to stay at my elder brother’s house. After all, he is also a descendant of the Aisin Gioro family, so he can’t just be blind. He should study hard with his master and understand some principles.”

"It turns out to be the fourth elder brother." An Lingrong raised his eyebrows and sighed softly, "There are so many motherless children in this palace. The fourth elder brother is also pitiful. It's difficult for him to be willing to endure hardships and work hard. If my concubine Honghao can do it in the future, Just work as hard as him."

Dill's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal. Seeing this, Zhao Xuan patted her hand to comfort her silently.

An Lingrong occasionally has good moments, but they are only revealed inadvertently, just like people's subconscious reactions. Some words will be blurted out, and some things will be done according to the situation, but when it really comes to mind, it is Can't remember anything.

The Queen Mother also noticed this, looked at An Lingrong with regret and affection, and started talking about everyday gossip again.

At that time, the queen was talking to the third elder brother in her elder brother's room. Suddenly she heard the sound of reading outside the door. She got up and walked to the door to take a look outside. She saw that the fourth elder brother was still studying hard after school, and she was alert: "Jianqiu, who is going to take care of Fourth Brother now?"

"It's the nannies who came from the Old Summer Palace." Jian Qiu replied with a smile.

"Has the Emperor come to see Fourth Brother?" the Queen asked again.

"Unless the emperor asked about homework, I never mentioned it." Jianqiu said with a bit of pride in his tone.The Queen breathed a sigh of relief, having already considered it in her mind. She turned to look at the third elder brother: "The fourth elder brother is studying with you. What do you think of his grades?"

The third elder brother first said it to the point: "Master always said that the fourth brother started learning late, but he is very talented, so he learned quickly." Then with a somewhat proud look on his face, he continued, "The fourth brother is diligent, but he started learning late. , I haven’t learned many things, so I’m not as good as my son.”

The queen didn't think so. She squinted at the fourth elder brother in the yard, and her face slowly turned cold: "I can't compare now, but he still studies so hard after school, but he is much more attentive than you." She looked at it He glanced at the third elder brother, feeling a little resentful that iron could not become steel, but then he smiled and said, "There is no guarantee that such a diligent child will not become a great person in the future."

But in this palace, there is no need for a powerful elder brother other than the third elder brother.The Queen bit her back molars, her eyes filled with frost.

At the end of the year, the emperor was out of the palace more and more frequently. Finally, on the night before New Year's Eve, good news came from outside the palace.

"Mr. Wen said that Huan'er is pregnant and will be able to return to the palace soon." Shen Meizhuang came to talk to An Lingrong as usual. He didn't expect her to respond and said to himself, "I look forward to her." When he came back, he was afraid that she would come back. Su Peisheng said that the emperor and Huan'er both have feelings for each other, so everything fell into place after meeting, and it went very smoothly, but I always feel uneasy..."

"Prince Guo, do you know about this?" An Lingrong said suddenly while looking at the plum blossoms on the branches bent by the snow outside the window.

Shen Meizhuang stopped embroidering in his hands and glanced at An Lingrong in surprise: "What does this have to do with Prince Guo?" But An Lingrong lost his voice again, and she thought she was hearing hallucinations.

But speaking of Prince Guo, Shen Meizhuang remembered something: "Hearing that Prince Guo was missing, the emperor sent people to search along the road, but only found an unrecognizable body. The emperor was sad for several days, but for the sake of the court, he finally decided It's a secret. I heard other people say this by chance. It's a pity. Because the prince was so young and didn't have any children, the lineage was cut off."

Prince Guo is dead?
An Lingrong blinked slightly, and her mind suddenly became clear: "Since Sister Zhen is going back to the palace, we must handle this matter as soon as possible. We must settle the matter before the news leaks out and the queen knows about it. "

It turns out that this is the reason why Zhen Huan returned to the palace. So, is the child she is pregnant with the emperor or Prince Guo?
In Lingyun Peak, Zhen Huan was letting Liu Zhu wrap raw silk around her waist.

"Miss, will the raw silk corset hurt the fetus?" Although Liu Zhu kept moving his hands, his eyes were full of sorrow and worry.

"Probably not." Zhen Huan raised her hand to match Liu Zhu's movements and gasped softly, "Mr. Wen said that the Han Ling Emperor's beauty Wang was afraid of the power of Queen He and did not dare to say that she was pregnant. Every day The girdle is hidden until the time of childbirth, not to mention that I girdle it every two or three days, so I only need to girdle it for two or three months, and it doesn’t have to be too tight.”

Liu Zhu put on Zhen Huan's coat, fixed her hair, and said softly: "The Imperial Physician Wen also prescribed a lot of fetal-strengthening medicine. Jin Xi has already gone to take it. Please wait until the young lady drinks it before going to bed." She glanced at Zhen Huan's clothes. After putting on the clothes, he smiled and said, "Miss, it really takes more than a month to put on these loose clothes!"

"Three months ago, I didn't show much pregnancy, but after a few days, the belly of four months will be different from the belly of two months." Zhen Huan exhaled the turbid air accumulated in her chest, with an indifferent expression, "As long as the emperor doesn't marry me, If you get close, you can hide everything."

She raised her head and looked out the window. In that direction was the Imperial City.

As night fell, Shen Meizhuang bid farewell to An Lingrong and went to Shoukang Palace to serve the Queen Mother as usual. The words An Lingrong had just told her were replayed in her mind: "It's not just that the Emperor has said it alone for Sister Zhen to return to the palace, the Queen Mother is still needed." Only if you agree. Sister Mei, this matter should not be delayed. Before the Queen reacts, we must quickly bring this matter to the Queen Mother."

She stared calmly for a moment, then slowly walked into the Queen Mother's bedroom.

"I've been drinking medicine all day long, until my tongue is numb." The Queen Mother tilted her head and waved her hand to stop drinking.

Shen Meizhuang coaxed her like a child, and said with an angry smile: "The Queen Mother is becoming more and more childish now. How can you not drink the medicine if you don't want to drink it? I told the Queen Mother a happy event, and the Queen Mother was happy after hearing it. I don’t care about the pain of taking the medicine." She approached the Queen Mother and whispered, "God is so kind and will send Lin'er to my Qing Dynasty again."

"Seriously?" The Queen Mother's face turned bright and she quickly asked who was pregnant.

Shen Meizhuang raised the medicine bowl in his hand and smiled at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You little naughty boy, don't be from the Wei Ai family." She took the medicine bowl and slowly drank the medicine, "Okay, can we talk now? "

"The emperor has been going to Ganlu Temple to pray for blessings recently. He heard that Mochou was ill, so he often went to visit him. The two of them had an unfinished love, and they rekindled their old relationship every time they went back and forth. Now, Mochou is already more than a month pregnant. Counting the days, it's time. It was there on the day the Emperor went there for the first time, isn't it a blessing?"

Shen Meizhuang had a smile on her face, but she was a little worried in her heart. Seeing the Queen Mother's face gradually darkening, she stopped her last words and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Mo Chou left the palace willfully because she was too stubborn. Years of practice have smoothed her edges, and she must have realized she was wrong."

　From here on, the plot of the original drama version will gradually increase.
