The Legend of Imperial Concubine Rong

The rumour of the harem rose quietly, Rongkaizi's theory of right and wrong;

The death of his fourth son was a good thing, but Rong'er sighed to himself. Was this really true?

His longevity had not been able to survive the smallpox, but due to the timely treatment of it, every day was getting better and better. Since then, the crown prince had safely survived the calamity, which was good news for the palace.

Xuan Ye was already upset about the death of Long Life, but after that, he was informed by an official that something had happened to the Celestial Phenomenon a few days ago, and had not been fully informed by the imperial court. So he vented his anger on the imperial court and ordered the Ministry of Rites, "The imperial court used the Celestial Phenomenon as its commandment. Xuan Ye blamed the small smallpox in the harem on the Emperor Qin's failure to diagnose the constellations in time and warned the Son of Heaven.

Half a month later, there were no signs of smallpox in the palace, and everyone in the palace was once again allowed to enter or leave. A flustered and panicked court illness quietly ended, but Rong'er, Xuan Ye, as well as the empress dowager and Toya, who raised their longevity, were the most severely injured in this mess.

Within the Shoukang Palace, the empress dowager suddenly saw a small drum hanging in the corner of the warm brick bed, playing with longevity. She sighed and said, "Toya, tidy up the palace carefully. See if there's anything else longevity can leave behind. Burn it all."

Toya nodded lightly and agreed. The Empress Dowager then continued to sigh. "What a sin. The Mourning family has raised their longevity for almost two years. How can it be said that it's gone without a trace?"

"Empress Dowager, this old servant has something that he doesn't know whether he should say or not." Qin mama, who'd been serving by the empress dowager's side for a long time, suddenly spoke up.

"If you have something to say, just say it!" The Empress Mother did not look up, but spoke in a low voice, still lost in her grief for the long life.

Seeing that the empress dowager had promised, Mummy Qin opened his mouth and said, "Esteemed Empress Dowager, recently there's been a rumor circulating among the imperial court that things seem to be quite right. They say that this honor …"

"Aunt Qin!" "Why do you have to tell the empress dowager such nonsense? It has tainted her ears."

"This …" Qin mama looked hesitantly at the empress dowager, who smiled lightly. "What are you talking about?" Tell me about it. "

Seeing the empress dowager say this, Toya didn't know what to say. This Senior Servant Qin hastily replied, "Empress Dowager, it's like this. The palace maids all say that four princes from the Noble Lady Rong died in a row. They said … "She said it was because she had a tough life and was born to be a nemesis of others!"

"What?" The empress dowager frowned, then nodded after a long time. "Although it's a distant rumor, it's not without reason. Four children dying one after another is far too unusual."

"Empress Dowager, how could you believe this? Do you not know the character of this Noble Lady Rong?" After these past two years of interaction, she knew that the Noble Lady Rong was a kind and good person. It was unfavorable for her to hear rumors like this.

"Of course I know her character, but the number of life skills she has has has nothing to do with her character." The empress dowager shook her head. "No, this one has to tell this matter to the empress dowager and the emperor."

In the room of the storage palace's Rong son, Xiaoqing said angrily, "Master, don't you think these people are too excessive? How can you say that about you? So I scolded the Silver Lama today. Who asked her to say that? " During the day, Xiao Qing met Yin La, the palace maid of the Noble Lady An. The Silver Lama told her that the palace had already spread rumors that the Noble Lady Rong was born with a hard life, and was reborn with nemesis, thus causing her to live more and die more. She immediately scolded Yin La, and angrily came back to complain to Rong'er.

Hearing Xiaoqing's words, Wang Jingzhi lightly frowned and said with worry, "Rong'er, this isn't good. This morning, I also heard from my palace maids that I was the one who gave a lecture on this. Now that the news has spread throughout the palace, it is not good for you."

She leaned on the hot brick bed, and the warm spring sun shone in through the window, shining on her body, causing her to feel a little warm. Listening to Master Zhizhi asking her about this with concern, Rong'er slowly raised her head, "Is this how it is spread? It may be true, but I have a tough life, and I killed Ama and four other children, right? " She had lost her life long ago, so she had no idea what was going on with Zhi Yin. The grief in her heart for the past half month had already made her look very haggard.

"Rong'er, how could you think like that?" Worried, she walked over to Rong'er.

"Mistress, what do you mean by that!" Xiaoqing anxiously called out, "Mistress, please don't think like that."

Rong'er's eyes turned red, "But, other than this reason, can you find a better one? However, if I die, it will be my fault, it will be my luck. " The four sons were all dejected, Rong'er didn't know why, but now that there was such a rumor circulating in the palace, she also thought to herself as she listened to Little Qing, "Could it really be me?"

"Oh, my mistress. If others say so, then forget it. You must not think like this." Little Qing hurriedly said.

"That's right, Rong'er, don't say anymore. If the emperor hears it, he'll think too much about it. What should we do then?" Wang Jingzhi sullenly said, "I wonder who could be so wicked as to say such words."

At the Palace of Dry and Clear, after dinner, the counsellor and the eunuch from the Internal Affairs Bureau were preparing to have Xuan Ye turn over his cards. Ling Ying'er stood guard at the door, quietly holding the counselor's hand as she said, "Eunuch Gu, it seems that the emperor has never turned his cards over these past few days."

"The prince is sick. How could the emperor be in such a mood? But the emperors asked him when they were having their meal today, I don't think he'll turn over any of them." After all, they had known each other for more than ten years, so their relationship was pretty good.

"Do you know how to flip Noble Lady Rong's cards?" Ling Xiu-er probingly asked.

"I don't think so. In the next few days, the Emperor went directly to see the Noble Lady Rong, not to mention that the Noble Lady Rong's body hasn't been fully nurtured. I reckon the Emperor wants to have a master to ease the Emperor's worries." The consultant shook his head.

"Eunuch Gu, can you please help me place the Noble Lady An's card in the middle of the table?" Ling Jiao'er asked with expectation in her eyes.

"This …" The consultant looked at Ling Xiu-Er with a puzzled expression, "Do you have some sort of special relationship with Young Master An?"

I am already so familiar with her, I will not hide it from Eunuch Gu. I, Ah Ma, am now working under the grandfather of Young Master An, and when I found out some time ago, I went to visit the Noble Lady An.

Oh, you want to curry favor with Noble Lady An! The consultant suddenly had an epiphany.

"Eunuch Gu, what are you talking about? I, Ama, followed General Li and fought in the battlefield. I can definitely help the Noble Lady An in the palace, that's all you need to do, please." Ling Xiu-er stared at the consultant with a hopeful expression.

"Alright, it's just a small effort. Isn't it just putting the promise tablet in the middle? That's no problem, but I can't guarantee that the Emperor will not be able to turn over the Noble Lady An."

"That's only natural. Thank you so much, Eunuch Gu." The Noble Lady An's thinking is simple, if the Emperor sees her cards, he would definitely turn her over. Is there anyone more suitable for the Emperor's current mood than her?
