299: Transaction
Xia Ruan's brows furrowed at this time, and she didn't know how to answer Concubine An's request.
What An Guifei can't do herself, how can she do it?
Concubine An Guifei inevitably looked up to her too highly.
Xia Qinghe is indeed her second cousin, but she has also seen the changes in Xia Qinghe over the years.
What Xia Qinghe didn't want to say, no matter who could ask.
After all, the person behind Xia Qinghe is cinnabar.
Cinnabar is a person who has always played cards out of common sense, and this time I don't know what he's thinking.
After half a ring, Xia Ruan opened his mouth and asked tentatively: "An Guifei Niangniang, isn't Ning Guiren crazy?" ”
If Xia Qinghe was crazy, how could she get close to Ning Guiren.
Of course, this is also her attempt to reject Concubine An.
"To the others, she's really crazy." Concubine An sighed, thinking of the beautiful Ning Guiren in the past, and now she looks embarrassed, "It's just that this palace thinks that she should still remember some things." Otherwise, how could she say your name when Hongu went to look for her a few times? Hongu thinks she wants to see you. ”
Good flowers don't bloom often, and good times don't last long.
Concubine An Guifei knew that Ning Guiren's today might be her coming day, and the emperor's heart was the most unpredictable thing in this world. She is still beautiful now, so she can win the emperor's love, but when she is old and decrepit, how can the emperor remember her existence?
So this child is very important to her, she must let this child be born smoothly, and then grow up by her side.
The women in this palace have always been mothers and sons. Whether it is the biological mother of the eldest prince, Zeng Guifei, or the biological mother of the sixth prince, Concubine Hui, or even the biological mother of the fourth prince of the sick seedling...... As long as their children are still alive, as long as the emperor still remembers the father-son relationship, then no matter how miserable they are, they will not be miserable.
Especially the biological mother of the fourth prince, Concubine Xun, the emperor has been reluctant to go to her place to see her for a long time. But during the New Year's holidays, the emperor will still let people send things to the place where Concubine Xun lives, because the four princes are still alive, and the emperor will not execute Concubine Xun.
Concubine An has always been preparing for the worst, even if she is not favored and is framed to death in the future. Then her children can at least keep the old and young of the An family.
She can die. But the people of the An family are innocent, and she doesn't want everyone in the An family to bury her for her.
The coolest is the emperor's heart.
Xia Ruan was suspicious, bit her lower lip tightly, and said after a while: "Why does Concubine An think so?" After all. There is no need for Ning Guiren to pretend to be crazy. Again. The imperial doctor in this palace has always been powerful. Didn't any of them notice the problem? An Guifei Niangniang, the courtiers are afraid that they are not sure to ask what you want to know from the mouth of a crazy person. ”
There are too many unjust souls in this palace, and there are even more princes and princesses who have died in miscarriage.
Although Xia Qinghe gave birth to the child smoothly. But this child was a dead baby, and Xia Qinghe couldn't accept this kind of thing at the time, and he was directly stimulated by this incident to go crazy. Xia Ruan learned from other people's mouths that this dead child was a boy.
If this child is still alive, he will be the prince of Great Qin.
At that time, Ning Guiren was still afraid that there was no future at all?
It's just that now Concubine An wants her to know something from Xia Qinghe's mouth, and she is afraid that she won't be able to do it.
Concubine An Guifei said in the past that the emperor likes Xia Qinghe very much.
Xia Ruan thought that even if Xia Qinghe couldn't give birth to a prince for the emperor, he wouldn't fall out of favor so quickly. Now that Xia Qinghe has fallen out of favor, the place where he lives is still in the small garden farthest away from the emperor's palace, but these things can only show one situation, then Xia Qinghe is really crazy.
If he wasn't really crazy, how could the emperor easily give up an interesting plaything? If he wasn't really crazy, how could Xia Qinghe tolerate living alone in a small place.
Concubine An Guifei held Xia Ruan's hand and tightened it again: "This palace doesn't know either, and this palace can't guess whether she's really crazy or fake crazy." The Queen Mother had also seen Ning Guiren once before, and that time Ning Guiren stayed in Cining Palace for more than an hour. You say, if you are a madman, how can you stand in front of the quiet Queen Mother for so long? So, Hongu suspects that she is not crazy at all. ”
"So Concubine An? Why did Ning Guiren pretend to be crazy? Xia Ruan raised her eyebrows and looked at Concubine An, "Could it be that Concubine An Guifei thinks that Ning Guiren is avoiding the person who framed her own childless?" ”
Concubine An lowered her head, she really thought so.
There are many concubines in this palace, and even if one dies, more people will come in a few days.
The emperor never cares about these women, and even if he does, it is just a moment of sadness, and he will forget it after a while.
What scared Concubine An the most was that she didn't know that those people were enemies and those people were friends, and the hearts of people in this palace were too false, making it impossible to distinguish between sincerity and falsehood.
Now the only person she can trust is Xia Ruan, so at this time she told Xia Ruan everything in her heart, including the fact that she had a child in her belly.
If Xia Ruan can help her, then the child can be born safely.
If Xia Ruan is unwilling to help her, then this child is afraid that she will have to follow the path of the first child......
It's too cruel to look at her.
Thinking of this, Concubine An Guifei's eyes were red: "This palace asks you, do you think there is a price for wealth?" ”
"This palace feels that all wealth has a price." A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Concubine An's mouth, no one could have thought that the woman who now holds the power of the Six Palaces would show such a look, "When I was a child, I went to Huai'an with my mother, and when I was about to enter the city, I saw a lot of homeless people. Bengong asked his mother, are these people happy to be able to walk around freely? At that time, the main palace was still young, and he had to face the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day, and more often, the main palace wanted to go out to play, rather than living a boring life. Therefore, this palace will envy those homeless people. ”
An Guifei seemed to be a memory from a long time ago, and the corners of her eyes were ruddy.
At that time, my mother didn't speak. Later, she told Hongu that although those people were free, what awaited them might be precarious hunger. Concubine An raised her head and looked at Xia Ruan, and said seriously, "This palace has been clothed and fed since childhood, as long as you want what this palace wants, my mother will definitely give it to this palace." The main palace has lived a carefree life in the An family for fifteen years, and now after entering the palace, it is necessary to protect the safety of all the people in the An family. Whether it's a father or a mother. Hongu wants them to be happy. ”
Xia Ruan didn't know how to answer Concubine An for a while.
What Concubine An said at this time. I'm afraid that Concubine An Guifei is showing weakness in front of outsiders for the first time in her life.
She wanted to comfort Concubine An, but she couldn't say a word.
In this world, all wealth has a price.
Whether it is a young lady in the boudoir or a princess raised in the deep palace. They don't have to worry about food and clothing from an early age. What I have to do every day is to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Much happier than the countryman.
But the countrymen are free. But they don't have any freedom.
Wherever you want to go, or where you want to see the scenery, you can't walk alone.
Such a life. It's like a chain around his neck that can't be opened until he dies.
Concubine An Guifei smiled desolately: "How many people envy the life in this palace, but they don't know what kind of life they live in this palace." This palace is now like a small animal raised by the emperor, to be well-behaved and docile, not to show sharp claws, is it very similar to a cat? ”
Concubine An said that it was painful, but Xia Ruan had no other thoughts except sympathy.
Everyone has their own pains, and she can't help them.
"Concubine An, the prince will definitely be born safely, you must relax." Xia Ruan still didn't change what he said just now, "The courtiers believe that God will definitely bless you." ”
As soon as Xia Ruan's words fell, Concubine An couldn't help laughing.
Oh, my God? God?
She had never believed in these high gods.
If there were gods in this world, when she lost her mind and wanted to trade her life for the safety of her child, who of these gods heard her cry? She could only feel the child in her belly little by little, struggling until the end and slowly not moving, and finally leaving her forever. It felt like pulling her heart out of her chest and throwing it on the ground and smashing it hard.
Concubine An thought that if she hadn't thought about living for the An family at that time, she would have been suffocated to death by that kind of pain and stinging.
It was her flesh and bones, the child in her womb.
No one can empathize with that kind of pain.
It took almost all of her strength to emerge from the shadows.
Silence returned to the room, and no one spoke.
Xia Ruan turned his eyes to look at the orchids blooming on the table not far away, and at this moment, it seemed that there were signs of decay.
No matter how beautiful the flowers are, they can't survive long when they are locked up in this dark room.
If there is no sunlight, this dazzling orchid will wither faster.
"Mrs. Marquis of Chang'an, do you know how many hours it takes to get from Yecheng to the capital?" An Guifei suddenly said, "Have you ever been to Yecheng?" ”
Xia Ruan shook his head: "If you go back to Concubine An, the courtiers have not been there, but the courtiers know that it only takes four hours to get from Yecheng to the capital." ”
Yecheng is very close to the capital, and Yecheng is very prosperous, Xia Ruan has never been to Yecheng, because she feels that there are enough merchants in Yecheng, and it is difficult for her to find business opportunities when she goes.
Compared with Yecheng, she is more familiar with the capital.
Concubine An Guifei rubbed her eyebrows and said softly: "The emperor misses the palace and cares about his family, so the emperor's younger brother An Yingrong is the Yin of Yecheng Mansion." A few days ago, this palace learned from his younger brother that a man named Cinnabar had come to him several times to get some news from him, and he had made an appointment at the White Horse Temple. ”
Xia Ruan was shocked.
Cinnabar? White Horse Temple.
Could it be that Cinnabar already knew about her husband's plan? (To be continued......)
