Chapter 35.Ylang Ylang

After Zhen Huan danced, the emperor treated her as warmly as before. Even if Shen Meizhuang and Xia Dongchun got pregnant one after another, his love for Zhen Huan did not diminish at all.

And in the past few days, An Lingrong accidentally caught heat due to the hot weather, and because she had to take care of Xia Dongchun's pregnancy, she and the emperor had been gone for six or seven days.

"My lord, the nobleman from Guan has been favored more and more recently, and the emperor even allowed her to come and go freely in the Qinzheng Palace." Dill removed the hairpin for An Lingrong, and whispered, "Concubine Hua has also made a comeback. I am so unhappy these days. , I heard that yesterday she embarrassed the empress in public, and she almost couldn't get off the stage." After a pause, she continued, "Xiao Xiazi sent word that the emperor seems to want to restore Concubine Hua's right to assist the six palaces."

An Lingrong was in a good mood today, and it was rare for her to remember to mix incense. Hearing this, she stopped her movements, looked up at the blue sky outside the window, and whispered softly: "Sooner or later." But, sooner or later, she also hoped that sooner or later good.Hearing the panic in the Yicui Palace, he asked again, "Is Xia Chang still very sick these days?"

"Yeah, she eats six meals a day and vomits every time. I wish everyone would know that she suffers from morning sickness, but the emperor doesn't care. It's been a long time since I've seen her." Dill replied with a light smile, "According to According to the order of the young master, the servant girl and Dou Kou have been avoiding her for the past few days, but they dare not touch her bad luck."

Xia Dongchun has become more and more rampant in the past few days. Maybe it's her pregnancy that gave her confidence, or maybe she was already restless after she became pregnant. Facing An Lingrong and Dill Cardamom, her temper gradually became stronger, and she would get angry at every turn. Things, and her appetite is not good, Grace is looking attenuated, she turns around like a headless fly, not knowing the exit and direction.

"Forget it, I'll go see her." An Lingrong put the incense in a box and put it away, and got up after cleaning his hands.

Such a big trouble, it's time to let go, so as not to wait until the Queen does it and then plant it on her, but it's really full of mouths and it's hard to tell.

An Lingrong walked to the Yicui Palace holding Dill's hand, just as Xia Dongchun threw dishes and bowls and complained why the emperor didn't come to see her, he couldn't help but interrupted: "Zhi Zhi said carefully, the emperor has been entangled in government affairs for days, It's a busy time, and you really shouldn't be talking nonsense like this. Shuanghua, clean up for your little master, so that no outsiders can see it." An Lingrong calmly walked to Xia Dongchun's side, and supported her Sitting down, as if she didn't know about the slight discord these days, she still said affectionately as usual, "You are pregnant with a child now, the emperor is naturally thinking about you, look, there are piles of rewards all over the palace." No matter what, she loses her temper every day, becoming more and more childish."

Xia Dongchun faced An Lingrong, with a look of pride on his face: "After my father knew that I was pregnant, he specially asked people to bring in a lot of things, and the empress even gave them a lot of rewards. Someone brought flowers over to congratulate you." She lifted her chin, motioned An Lingrong to look at the potted plants on the table, "Eunuch Zhou specially sent them yesterday, saying that these flowers can warm and nourish a woman's body, and they are excellent things."

An Lingrong looked in the direction she pointed, and couldn't help shrinking his pupils.

The emerald green branches and leaves, the bright yellow flowers hang down, and the slender and slightly curled petals stretch out like a flower tin.

This is ylang-ylang.

How could Concubine Hua send this flower to Xia Dongchun?
But soon, Xia Dongchun gave the answer himself: "Father valued my baby, and said that you must be careful when using incense during pregnancy, so he went to Zhenbao Pavilion and bought the incense in the goose pear tent for me to use. Sister Rong thinks so I have never heard of this incense, but this is a prescription made by Emperor Zhou E, it has been lost for a long time, years ago, Zhenbao Pavilion found an expert from somewhere, and made this incense, and it sold for a sky-high price outside." She proudly said Looking at An Lingrong, he smiled very proudly, "Sister Rong, you come from a small family, you have never seen this kind of spice in your life, have you?"

An Lingrong sneered in his heart, sighing secretly that Xia Dongchun was plotted and didn't know, but he flattered her on the surface: "Yes, I have never even heard of such a precious fragrance. After all Zhizhi, you are from Jiangmen, your family is extraordinary, and you are loved by your father and brother, and you have found all kinds of treasures for you." As he spoke, he praised again and again.

Xia Dongchun felt much better after being praised, and with a wave of his hand, he distributed a lot of good things to An Lingrong, and even took out a small half box of goose pear tent incense to her: "My Xia family does not lack these things, If you like it, I will give it to you. I don’t like to use this incense very much recently, so I will share half of it with you and bring it back. If it feels good, I will ask my father to buy some more and send it in.”

An Lingrong thanked her with a smile, got up and left.

"What does the young master treat her so well? How can the daughter of the little county magistrate compare with the young master?" Maple Leaf was annoyed. There are so many, the slaves feel distressed when they see it."

Xia Dongchun was in the right mood at the moment: "During my most difficult time, it was Sister Rong who helped me. No matter what her reason was, I will always be grateful for her support. But I also want her to understand that no matter what , she can't pass me by, how can my identity allow her to call her 'sister' condescendingly? Huh, now I'm pregnant again, and after a few days my father will go to the emperor to ask the emperor to make me a nobleman. , I’m on the top and she’s on the bottom. At worst, I’ll just support and support her in the future.” She squinted her eyes and touched her unconceived belly with a smile, “If this child can have a prince, I can Sitting on an equal footing with Concubine Qi, hmph, Concubine Hua is nothing if she doesn't have a son and a half."

Xia Dongchun looked up and saw the potted flowers on the table, and suddenly felt bad again: "Send this potted flower to Rong Changzai too, it makes me upset." But she still remembered the time when Concubine Hua punished her on the long street. Kneel down.

Shuanghua hurried out holding the flowers.

Here, An Lingrong returned to the Hall of Fanying, and Dill whispered: "Xia Changzai is a little too arrogant, doesn't she know that the wall has ears? It's so unrestrained. I have wronged the young master, but I still want to For her sake, is it her turn to appreciate this incense? The little master has as much as he wants."

Xia Dongchun is a typical man who is rampant when he gains power.

When I was down and down, I was very affectionate to An Lingrong, trying to please her in every way. Once she became pregnant, she wished she could step on An Lingrong immediately, thinking that everything would be safe with her belly in her arms, and she couldn't see the situation clearly.

An Lingrong didn't intend to help Xia Dongchun take care of these things, she was thinking about Concubine Hua's setup this time.

Even though the Emperor still went to Qingliang Hall that night, even though Concubine Hua made a successful comeback, at the first birthday banquet, the news of Xia Dongchun's pregnancy overwhelmed her Lou Dongfu, and she already held grudges in her heart. It only took ten days, Mr. Cao Gui Just help to set up this game.

When An Lingrong handed over the incense in the goose pear tent to the shopkeeper Xun for sale, he said that this incense could never be alone with Yilanhua, but after General Xia learned that Xia Dongchun was pregnant, he searched all over the capital to give it to her. Bought this incense and sent it to the palace to show that the Xia family attached great importance to it. This was exactly the opportunity for Concubine Hua and the others to do it - the incense in goose pear tents is not often found, but Ylang-ylang is very common.

"My little master said that this flower is exquisite and cute, and it fits very well with Rong Xiaozhu, so I asked my servant to bring it over." Shuanghua is Xia Dongchun's other mouth. Xia Dongchun entered the palace.

An Lingrong's eyes flashed, and a plan was quickly formed in his mind, but he didn't reveal anything, he just smiled and said: "I liked this flower when I saw it just now, and I was thinking of going to the flower house to find a pot. Just sent it over, and thanked your little master for me." After a pause, she reminded casually, "Shuanghua, Zhizhi's pregnancy did not prevent Concubine Hua from regaining her favor. Because of the heavy weight in the emperor's heart, now that you are in such a situation, you must always warn Zhizhi, don't act recklessly and be caught by others."

This is her last kind reminder.

Shuanghua is different from Maple Leaf, she is grateful for An Lingrong, so when Dill came to talk to her that day, she agreed without saying a word.She knew that following An Lingrong, her young master would have a way out, but now that the young master is pregnant, everything is up to her own temperament, Shuanghua really can't talk to her, and Fengye has such a personality Son, sometimes she feels tired.

Seeing what An Lingrong said, Shuanghua couldn't help it: "Master Rong treats my little master well, and this servant will always remember it in his heart, and this servant will definitely tell the young master well when he goes back."

An Lingrong nodded, and waved her down.

Dill looked at the ylang-ylang flowers on the table and was troubled: "My lord, this..."

"Go and talk to Xiao Xiazi, find a reason, so that the emperor can think about coming to me tonight, don't say that I want the emperor to come here." An Lingrong raised his hand and gently stroked the petals of the Yilan flower , without any expression on his face, "In the evening, you light the incense in the goose pear tent, and mix in some of the incense I made today, so that no one will find it strange."

Dill opened her mouth, not sure what An Lingrong meant: "My lord, the warm incense you made today already has the effect of the previous condensation. If you add the incense of goose pear tent and ylang-ylang flower, wouldn't it be effective?" Doubling? It will hurt the little master's body!"

"Concubine Hua set up the Love Fragrance Bureau, in order to make Xia Dongchun compete for favor, attract the emperor's attention, and then destroy the child. Afterwards, the Yilan flower will wither, and then dispose of the fragrance. On her." An Lingrong told Concubine Hua's plan, "Your Majesty Cao's calculations are very precise, but I just want to pierce this layer of window paper, so that the incident can only be traced to the root cause, and they don't want to be safe and sound. get away."

There was a sharp light in her eyes, memories rolled while she spoke, scenes of miscarriage in her previous life flashed in her mind one after another, the sharp pain seemed to be still in her body, the blood that kept flowing out stained the bed red, The beating life was extinguished little by little, so hopeless and helpless.

An Lingrong didn't know until his death whether it was Concubine Xi who plotted against her or whether it was really an accident, but Concubine Hua absolutely shouldn't have used this method to design Xia Dongchun!
In Taohuawu, the queen is picking lotus seeds.

"Xia Changzai gave the ylang-ylang flowers to Rong Changzai, and also gave her half a box of goose pear tent incense?" The queen was a little surprised, but the ylang-ylang flowers were nothing more than the fragrance, so precious, Xia Dongchun even gave half of it to her. An Lingrong, "I don't know when these two got together, but their relationship is so close."

"Yeah, I'm also surprised. Xia Changzai is such a caring person, but he is so generous to Rong Changzai." Jianqiu took advantage of the opportunity to take the lotus pod from the Queen's hand, "Mother, these lotus seeds are hard to peel, and it hurts my hands carefully." .”

The queen raised her hand to push away Jianqiu's hand: "I know that the emperor likes to eat lotus seeds, so I peeled some by myself, and I will cook lily lotus seed soup for the emperor later."

"Your Majesty's sincerity to the emperor is really hard to find." Jian Qiu picked up another lotus pod and slowly peeled it off.

"So what if you are sincere, and you have no heirs." The queen sighed, then stopped what she was doing, and sighed, "It's a pity that I couldn't kill Xia Changzai's child with this incense. I went all over the city to find this incense. Concubine Hua's plan this time has failed again." As she spoke, she let out a long sigh as if she was very regretful.

Jian Qiu also murmured in a low voice: "Yeah, I don't know where General Xia heard the absurdity, saying that if a pregnant woman smells this incense often during pregnancy, she will definitely get a boy, so she spends a lot of money to buy incense and send it to the palace. The Xia family was really willing to give it to Rong Changzai's little half box right away."

The queen sneered: "No matter who said it, they want a prince to stabilize Xia Changzai's position. Is it true that no one else can see what his thoughts are? A mere coat with a left collar, dare to think about it." What he doesn't deserve." The queen's eyes were full of coldness.

Seeing this, Jian Qiu silently lowered his head.

This love game is a game within a game. It seems that Concubine Hua set it up, but in fact, it is still in the hands of the queen. She only needs to touch a chess piece lightly to send the news to Xia's house, and then make side-steps. Tell Cao Guiren the effect of using the incense in the goose pear tent and the ylang-ylang flower at the same time. Concubine Hua took the shot, and the queen could not get it at all.

The queen was sitting on the couch, slowly peeling the lotus seeds, her eyes were full of love for the emperor, the love was so strong that it almost buried the viciousness deep in her eyes.
