The Legend of Imperial Concubine Rong

Rong'er thought to himself: My reason tells me that they have violated the rules of the palace. I am the oldest concubine in the palace, so I should abide by it and punish the evildoers; but my feelings tell me that Xinyu is Ruo Lan's little sister. If anything happens to Xinyu, Ruo Lan will cry in the sky too … The contradiction between reason and emotion makes me at a loss as to where to go...

Xuande looked incredulously at Xiu Ping, this woman who had accompanied her for more than ten years suddenly felt a little strange to her. She stood up, walked in front of Xiu Ping, and waved her hand as she slapped heavily on her face. Why did you do that! "

This servant knows that you hate Yuan Yiren, and ever since the emperor brought that Yuan Yiren back to the palace, you have been unhappy. In the past, ten thousand years of my life had pampered you, but this year or two has clearly not been the same, and it must be because this Chinese woman is being weird, on what grounds does she have to give birth to a child for the emperor? She does not have the qualifications!

"Xiu Ping! When did I ever say I hated Yuan Yiren! " Xuande became somewhat agitated as she loudly asked.

"Master didn't say it, but Xiu Ping could tell that Xiu Ping had followed Master for more than ten years, whether Master was happy or not. With one glance, Xiu Ping could tell that Xiu Ping did not want Master to be unhappy, his master's fate was miserable, the Fourth Prince was given to the Empress Xioayi, and the Six prince had passed away long ago. Xiu Ping could not let Master be unhappy."

She had not liked Yuan Yiren since the moment she saw her in the Southern River. She thought that she had hidden herself, and Xiu Ping was really the person who understood her the most in this palace. With a heartbroken heart, he walked over to Xiu Ping and knelt down to support her shoulders: "Silly Xiu Ping, why did you do this! Even if I hate her, I can't harm Long Zi Zi! "

"Mistress, doesn't this palace sometimes require extraordinary methods? Back then, didn't we still harm Li Anzhu … "

"That's different!" Without waiting for Xiu Ping to finish speaking, Xuande cut her off, "I will harm Li Anzhu to protect myself, her heart is already very evil, there is no saving her, but... Xiu Ping, in the past ten years, have you ever seen me take the initiative to harm others? "

Xiu Ping lowered his head, "Master, this servant was wrong. This servant thought you would be happy like this.

"I'm really happy." Xuan De laughed bitterly: "Xiu Ping, I was the one who misled you, I was the one who was wrong." Imperial Concubine De slowly stood up, looking forward with sorrow in his eyes, "Xiu Ping, do you know? I am not a heartless person, she is Xinyu! She is Ruo Lan's little sister. Ruo Lan died to save Yin Zuo, how can you forget?

"Master!" Xiu Ping started crying, kneeling down and moving towards the side of Xuan De's feet, hugging her, "Mistress, when this servant selected her back then, this servant truly did not know that she was little master Yin's little sister. This servant swears to the heavens, when Lord Rong realized that she was not the little master's little sister, this servant was also shocked!"

Imperial Concubine De slowly lowered his head and looked at Xiu Ping's eyes. His eyes were filled with a hazy mist, "But this time, you went to find her again!"

Xiu Ping was startled. She slowly lowered her head and softly muttered: "This servant hesitated for a long time, but she has already done it, even if it was just once, I will still do it twice, she … Master, this servant was wrong, this servant will not reveal Young Master Yin, this servant will bear all of the responsibility, now that Imperial Concubine Rong knows about this, I know what she means, she wants me to be punished, but she also wants Young Master Yin to be punished, so she is very conflicted … " Xiu Ping raised his head, "Master, this servant will talk to Imperial Concubine Rong tomorrow. This servant doesn't mention Young Master Yin's matter, this servant will bear all of it."

Xiu Ping had accompanied her in the palace for more than ten years, and when it was time to leave the palace, she did not. How could she bear to let her die?

"Promise me that you won't mention this matter to anyone again, so you don't need to worry about it. I'll handle it." Xuande softly sighed, "I will not let you die."

"No, Mistress, no! You are not allowed to participate in this matter at all, Xiu Ping does not want to bring you any trouble. " Xiu Ping shook his head in panic.

"Listen to me! Do as I say! You are a servant of my palace, do you think that just because you admit what you did, I will be fine? The matters of the palace were always unclear! That's why you have to listen to me! " Xuande stared at Xiu Ping and spoke seriously, "From now on, it's like nothing happened, you hear me?"

"Master …" Xiu Ping looked at Xuande in a daze, seeing Xuande's firm goal, he nodded, "This servant understands."

Xuande raised her head and looked out the window, pondering for a long time before softly sighing, "Tomorrow, I have to go see Imperial Concubine Rong."

In the middle of the night in Yikun Palace, Rong'er and Xiao Qing were the only two people in Rong'er's room. Rong'er told Xiao Qing everything that had happened, and sighed helplessly, "Since things have already come to this point, I can't pretend that I don't know anything."

Xiao Qing's face was filled with surprise, although she had guessed that something was amiss, she had never imagined that it would be such a huge matter. Back then, regardless of what status Zhang Leqi and Li Anzhu had, as long as it involved the murder of Long Si, they were bound to die, "Master, this matter is not easy to handle, Xiu Ping is someone from the Imperial Concubine De, and does the Imperial Concubine De know about this? And Little Master Xinyu is Little Master Ruo Lan's blood sister. "

"Empress Xioayi just passed away, and now such a thing has happened. If the emperor and empress dowager knew, what would they think?! How could I have the heart to add insult to injury? "

"The point is, Mistress, do you want Young Master Yin to die?" Xiao Qing asked carefully.

Rong'er looked at Xiao Qing and asked bitterly: "Xiao Qing, do you think that people who do wrong should take responsibility for what they have done?" Xiao Qing nodded slightly, Rong'er shook his head and said, "But, you are right, how can I bear to let Xinyu die?"

"Master …" Looking at Rong'er's pained face, Xiao Qing's heart ached a little, but she didn't know how to help Rong'er resolve the pain in her heart. After all, this was a difficult choice for her normally upright and kind master.

"You may leave." Rong'er chuckled, "Let me think about it alone."

When she saw Xiu Ping that day, Xiu Ping had repeatedly told her that if she wanted Yin Xinyu to die, she would accompany him in death. She felt that she was being extremely passive, that she was suffering in her heart, and with her usual moral sense, it was natural for her to commit crimes. They had committed the same crime as Zhang Leqi and Li Anzhu; She couldn't let Xinyu die, she couldn't...

When emotion and reason become contradictory choices, one side must give in to the other... What Rong'er was facing was the desire to let reason overcome emotion, or to let emotion lose its rationality …

Rong'er let out a soft sigh and stood up to blow out the candle. The darkness quickly concealed the pain in her eyes. If a person was alive, they wouldn't be able to avoid the world. They wouldn't be able to be carefree just by thinking about it … Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night...
