"Lingrong..."

Zhen Huan's eyes were extremely empty, her tears had long since dried up, and the pain in her heart told her.

The emperor loved Concubine Hua more than her.

Her child was gone, and Concubine Hua just had no intention of promotion for the time being, and was deprived of the power to associate with the Sixth Palace.

An Lingrong knew that Zhen Huan could not listen to the principle of checks and balances, so she did not mention this matter.

"Sister Wan, the concubines are well aware of this matter. The matter of my sister's fall must be investigated, and Chun'er will also be implicated."

Zhen Huan naturally knew that Chun'er unintentionally ate the fruit core on the ground, which caused her false sprain to become a real sprain.

But if Concubine Hua didn't let her dance in front of everyone, then she wouldn't have to pretend to deliberately sprain her foot, causing her to fall to the ground.

Why could the nobleman Fucha's child be born safely, but her and the emperor's child could not?

Zhen Huan, who felt extremely desolate in her heart, raised her head and looked at An Lingrong, shook her head and said, "No, Concubine Hua is the cause of this matter. Your Majesty should..."

Looking at the stubborn Zhen Huan, An Lingrong sighed and said: "What should we do, let Concubine Hua be the second beautiful concubine? The emperor decreed that Concubine Hua should be thrown into the cold palace and be executed on a certain day?"

"My good sister, not to mention that Concubine Hua is favored over Concubine Li, Nian Gengyao's meritorious service alone is enough to keep Concubine Hua in the harem."

"Do you think, if the emperor is willing to help my sister remove Concubine Hua today, won't the previous dynasty be shocked? Doesn't the emperor care about the unrecovered military power in the hands of the prince and the Nian family?"

Zhen Huan seemed to be in disbelief, with disappointment filling her throat. She blurted out without thinking: "She killed the emperor's biological child!"

After saying that, her tears fell gurglingly and silently, forming continuous beads.

At this moment, Zhen Huan's eyes were full of despair and sadness, almost turning into a bottomless pool.

After a long time, she looked at An Lingrong who was now promoted to a concubine and had the power to co-administer the Sixth Palace, and said viciously: "Lingrong, my sister has never asked you, can you help my sister get justice?"

After spending all these years with Zhen Huan, An Lingrong heard Zhen Huan begging her in such a low voice for the first time.

He spoke to her in such a tired and sad tone and with Concubine Hua's vicious eyes.

Before she entered the palace, Zhen Huan was a confident, bright, and beautiful woman with a bit of a little fox temperament.

But now, because of the emperor's ruthlessness, the helplessness of the previous dynasty, Concubine Hua's arrogance, and some self-centered calculations, the fetus in her belly was gone without even passing through the queen's hands.

The scene before her was very similar to An Lingrong's memory of the tragic situation when the original owner asked Zhen Huan and Meizhuang for help because of her father's mistakes, but to no avail.

Although some sympathize with the short-lived child in Zhen Huan's belly, all this was caused by the female Zhuge in front of her, who thought she had everything under control.

Zhen Huan overestimated her status in the emperor's heart, and underestimated how important Concubine Hua and her mother's family were to the emperor who currently needed to stabilize the ministers in the previous dynasty.

In other words, if killing Zhen Huan can make Nian Gengyao retire and return to his hometown, giving up his military power and status...

Perhaps, the emperor will really do this.

In An Lingrong's impression, the emperor later feared that Cao Qinmo had too many calculations and betrayed his old master, so he and the Queen Mother ordered people to poison her medicine.

In the end, Cao Qinmo died from a nightmare, and Princess Wen Yi was used as a bargaining chip by Zhen Huan and given to an adoptive mother who also loved her very much.

Sighed.

Under Zhen Huan's expectant gaze, An Lingrong shook her head and said, "Concubine Hua is confined in the palace. Even if my sister has great abilities, she can't avenge the fetus in her belly. I think the same goes for Sister Mei." I feel so."

She arranged Zhen Huan's sweat-stained hair, and the emotions in her eyes were extremely worrying.

"Sister, since ancient times, emperors have been passionate. The emperor is still young and has many concubines. The children who have not been born do not count."

"Sister, don't be sad. She is still young. Once she gets healthy, she will have children."

After saying that, Zhen Huan closed her eyes and seemed to be trying to forget everything that had happened.

There was a lifeless silence in the huge palace.

After a while, Zhen Huan opened her numb eyes, stared at An Lingrong, and said, "Then when can we get rid of Concubine Hua?"

An Lingrong only said: "There will be a day."

Zhen Huan lowered her head in disappointment and burst into tears, "The pain of losing a child may fade away with time, but Concubine Hua's face appears in front of my eyes every day, how can I swallow it? And the emperor may not miss the past friendship! "

"How can you and I guess the emperor's thoughts? Sister, listen to my sister's advice. If you want to protect the emperor's heirs in the future, don't be angry. Just treat it as if it's for the sake of Shai Yuxuan's palace servants, sister and sister. Think about it for your sister."

An Lingrong sighed as she thought of the palace ladies who had gone through fire and water for Zhen Huan and died miserably one by one.

It's not that she is soft-hearted towards Zhen Huan, but she feels sorry for the servants who are with the wrong master.

Their loyalty is so deep that in the end, looking back, no one can live peacefully until the end.

Except for Jin Xi, who was liked by Su Peisheng, the sensible and intelligent Jin Xi escaped from danger.

"I understand, thank you sister Lingling for telling me these words."

With that said, Zhen Huan ordered someone to take An Lingrong out.

An Lingrong stood up, nodded, and left.

In the next week, Zhen Huan's hot spring bathhouse was dead silent and no longer as lively as before. All the auspicious things that symbolized fertility and happiness were removed by her, so as not to offend the scene and hurt her feelings.

She did not follow what An Lingrong said and exchanged sympathy and pity for the emperor to promote her to the throne and gain more favors.

Zhen Huan is still like that, insisting on herself, believing that she is irreplaceable in the emperor's heart.

In the beginning, the emperor visited Zhen Huan every day.

Zhen Huan's failure to recover and her tears made him feel irritated, and because An Lingrong and the others knew the basics, they understood his difficulties.

This is relatively sad and difficult.

Finally, on the second night before returning to the capital, the emperor sighed and walked away.

After learning about this, Meizhuang missed his old friendship and wanted to visit Zhen Huan.

In the morning, she went to visit Zhen Huan with her things, but after being invited out by Huanbi, she no longer thought about taking An Lingrong with her.

Because at the moment, Meizhuang also has Princess Hehui to take care of.

Even if she sympathizes with Zhen Huan and wants to get rid of Concubine Hua, she still has to take care of her daughter.

Besides, An Lingrong was right to remind her that she has a mother's family and a daughter.

She is also the concubine Hui who is favored by the emperor and is the envy of others.

You can't do things like you did when you first entered the palace, tell Zhen Huan everything, and carry it out with Zhen Huan. What if she was too conspicuous and made others unhappy.

As a result, Princess Hehui was taken advantage of, like the Wenyi Cassava Flour Incident, so Meizhuang was naturally unwilling to do so.

Therefore, at the end of this week, the palace maid serving Zhen Huan kept her movements and sounds cautious while walking, for fear of disturbing Zhen Huan Sizi's emotions.

The short trip to the hot springs is over.

Zhen Huan stayed behind closed doors, and Concubine Hua thought about her past, which resulted in silence in the harem.

Seeing that no one in the palace was pregnant, the queen was very happy and let An Lingrong handle the heavy harem affairs alone.

Occasionally she would check and balance An Lingrong and ask Concubine Jing and Concubine Qi to help, but there were not many such opportunities.

In addition, after the Queen Mother finally learned that Zhen Huan's belly was obviously filled with a male child, she began to feel uncomfortable again.

Therefore, Concubine Jing was in charge of all matters related to blessings in the Queen Mother's Palace, and she also had to take care of Concubine Li's unoccupied palace and daily blessings.

Concubine Hua, on the other hand, tried to disobey the emperor's order and went to the imperial study to find the emperor.

But after standing in the snow for a long time, he couldn't even see Su Peisheng's shadow, which was a huge loss of face.

According to the emperor's order, she stayed in Yikun Palace and did not want to see anyone every day, just like Concubine Duan who hid from the world.

Although the emperor ignored her, he no longer dealt with her and continued to treat her well.

The matter of Zhen Huan's miscarriage was just brushed aside.

In Broken Jade Pavilion, Zhen Huan regretted every day. Why couldn't she be a servile servant in Concubine Hua's Tangchi Palace that day and beg Concubine Hua for mercy, as long as she could keep her child.

Why is she so tough and unwilling to admit defeat? He even came up with the idea of ​​diving to win the emperor's sympathy.

Zhen Huan even began to regret why she wanted to be favored. If she was just an ordinary concubine and unknown, how could Concubine Hua hate me so much and put her to death?
Such regret accelerated Zhen Huan's disappointment and disgust with herself.

Little did they know that her daily chatter was spread to the Yongshou Palace by An Lingrong, who was placed under Sui Yuxuan's eyeliner.

At the moment, An Lingrong is taking Meizhuang to make small clothes for Princess Hehui. While the two of them are making clothes, they listen to Baojuan and Baoping vividly performing the scenes that happened in the Zhen Huan Palace.

At first, Meizhuang didn't want to hear anything about Zhen Huan.

However, as An Lingrong said lightly, she stopped acting. Anyway, it was not the first time that Sister Wan had trouble with the emperor, and an inexplicable fire ignited in her heart.

So, with Meizhuang's hesitant consent, An Lingrong asked her two palace maids to start imitating what happened in Zhen Huan Palace.

"The girl Huanbi has been advising the young master recently, saying that crying and being sad like this is really not good for her, otherwise she will suffer from the problem of crying when she gets better in the future. I heard the old aunt in the palace said, This is how the Queen Mother suffered from her illness back then."

Baojuan's performance of Huanbi is somewhat similar.

The corners of Mei Zhuang's lips lifted into a happy smile that he had never noticed before.

An Lingrong saw this scene in her eyes, smiled and said to Baoping: "Then how did Sister Wan return to Huanbi?"

Baoping cleared her throat and lowered her voice, "Little Master Wan said that the Queen Mother has great blessings, and there is no way she can compare with her."

"After that, I wiped my tears and stopped talking."

Baojuan continued: "But I think Liu Zhu has experienced these things and seems much more mature. Seeing that Miss Huanbi couldn't persuade the young master Wan, she took the initiative to step forward and said that the young master was crying like this. The emperor is here. It will arouse each other's sadness. If this continues, I'm afraid the emperor won't even want to set foot in Broken Jade Pavilion anymore, so what good will it do to my little master?"

Next to her, Baoping imitated Zhen Huan vividly and replied: "It has only been a month since I lost this child, and a hundred days have not passed yet. How can I, as a mother, put on makeup, wear red and green clothes to express my gratitude? These things can only be done by …”

Mei Zhuang looked at the hesitant Baoping and the silent Baojuan, and felt a chill in his heart.

She asked: "Just what?"

An Lingrong raised her head and said to Baoping, "But it doesn't matter."

Baoping gritted her teeth and looked at the two empresses in front of her, "The noble lady said that Concubine An and Hui Bin will take care of the sleeping arrangements. Anyway, they are much higher than her in the emperor's heart."

As soon as he said this, Meizhuang broke the tea in his hand and looked at Baojuan and Baoping in disbelief, "Huan'er really said that?"

Baojuan and Baoping knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Ms. Hui Bin, it's true. We don't dare to deceive you in front of our own empress."

"Okay, what Sister Wan said is right, but hearing these words actually chilled Sister Mei's heart."

"Lingrong, I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going back first."

What An Lingrong said was like a thorn, piercing Mei Zhuang's heart.

Meizhuang's face was as pale as water. He suddenly stood up, smiled reluctantly at An Lingrong, and left first.

After Mei Zhuang left, An Lingrong looked calmly at Baojuan and Baoping who had lied below, nodded and said: "Well done, let's see how my good sister Wan takes revenge on Concubine Hua. ”

"Is everything ready?"

"Go back to your Majesty, you are ready. Everyone in Concubine Hua's palace is money-minded. When I heard that this slave wanted the dregs of Huanyi Incense to make sachets, I begged for some money and gave it to my slave."

"very good."

It was quiet at night, and the continuous noisy frog sounds were still jarring and disturbing at night.

An Lingrong sat in front of Zhen Huan, picked out a little Huanyi fragrance with her fingernails and sniffed it gently.
In front of Zhen Huan, An Lingrong sniffed carefully and said no more. Suddenly her eyes opened with a frightened expression.

Zhen Huan hurriedly asked: "What should I say?"

She hesitated slightly and quickly said: "Sure enough, there is a smell of musk in it."

When Zhen Huan heard this, all the energy in her body was almost drained.

She said that Concubine Hua had been favored for many years and had been infertile for a long time. It turned out that this was the real key.

It seems that the emperor has long been determined to suppress the forces of the previous Nian family, and it is difficult for him to plan so painstakingly.

At this point, Zhen Huan understood why the emperor said it was his fault in the first place. It turned out that it was true that she fell, and it was also true that the musk in Huanyi's fragrance affected her body.

However, the sadness and resentment in my heart became more and more pervasive. At first, it was just a mist and a cloud of sorrow, but gradually it became thicker and I was trapped in it.

Zhen Huan's heart couldn't help but tremble.

Although her health was not good, Anzhi didn't have the pleasant fragrance that the emperor had given her?
An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan's expression, paused and said: "Musk is inherently valuable. From my sister's point of view, this should be the musk from horse musk deer. This horse musk deer is only found in the snowy mountains of the northwest. It is very valuable and has greater medicinal power. Regular musk is stronger.”

An Lingrong didn't say any more because she knew Zhen Huan understood.

Women should not use musk frequently. If they use it for a long time, they will not be able to conceive. Even if they become pregnant, they will often have miscarriages and stillbirths. (End of chapter)
