The twelfth episode, Jiang Lingyan asked for perfection, and Wang Lianying secretly helped
The weather in early winter was a bit overcast, although there was a blurred circle of light and hiding behind the clouds. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But a gust of wind blew the circle of light away. So the whole sky looked a little white. In the Changchun Palace, a thick cotton curtain has been installed.
Pushing open the window, Jiang Lingyan could see the withered vines in the garden. They clinged to the eaves, making their last dying struggle against the north wind. Another year has passed, and Jiang Lingyan remembers it very clearly. This green vine was planted by herself.
This is the fifth year, and it has been five years since she entered the palace. But he never gave birth to a son and a half daughter for Jun Hao, but he still maintained his position as the sole favorite. Even if he betrayed Chu Junhao, he returned to the palace intact. She rejoiced in her luck, but hated the so-called draft.
Not to mention that the national strength that has just been restored is weak, and the people are recuperating. It is Jiang Lingyan's beloved heart that is not recognized by Jun Hao at all. She thought that in this harem, she didn't have to worry about it anymore except Wanning. It's just that she was wrong.
On that day, she was summoned to the Zhengyang Hall and told that she was in charge of the draft. She immediately changed her face: "The concubine is heartbroken as the emperor, and she has never even had the luxury of a throne." The draft should have been started by the queen, but the concubine was really powerless! ”
When she left the Zhengyang Hall angrily, she saw Wanning in a crimson robe. But seeing Wanning holding a food box in her hand, she went to Zhengyang Palace. At this moment, Jiang Lingyan actually felt a little less hatred for Wan Ning.
At least in the draft, Jiang Lingyan realized her difficulties. Maybe only Wanning can help herself. She thought carefully about the before and after of this matter, and felt that it was better to rely on Wanning's strength to face those show girls.
When she came to the side hall of Zhengyang Palace, she didn't see Wanning's figure. The room was quiet, separated by a transparent beaded curtain. Jiang Lingyan saw Xianyun who was resting, and heard that Xianyun was pregnant, she was really happy.
Wait, Xianyun is pregnant now, so she can't serve in Zhengyang Palace. Then there is a shortage of maids in Zhengyang Palace, and this quota will inevitably be re-selected from the unsuccessful show girls. Wan Ning won't know about this.
On the pear flower table, a silver-patterned black cloak lay there quietly. The moment the fingertips gently glided, you could feel the heart of Wanning for Jun Hao. It's just a corner of the cloak, which is obviously cut through a cut.
Yes, it must have been Wanning who heard about the re-election of the maids. complained in my heart, so I had to poke it with scissors. It seems that Jiang Lingyan is not wrong, Wanning looks so strong on the surface. In fact, the heart is also fragile and needs to be cared for by others.
"Zhaoyi Niang Niang is respectful, what is the matter here?" After more than a year, this is the first sentence that Jiang Lingyan heard Wanning say. In her opinion, Wan Ning Pingsu spoke cautiously. Never sneering, unless you have something on your mind.
Jiang Lingyan looked at Wanning with anger on her face, not like what she saw on weekdays. Could it be that the result of the training in the jade pool made her learn to resist? That's fine, otherwise Jiang Lingyan would still be worried that Wanning would be merciful. The draft had to be planned tactfully.
"If this palace is not bad, my sister must be worried about the selection of maids, right?" Jiang Lingyan deliberately lowered her words slowly, and then glanced at her graceful expression. But there was a little dissatisfaction and anger in Wanning's eyes.
The dark sky hung low, dotted with a few bright stars. It's a blessing to be able to see the stars on a winter night like this. A cup of tea, lingering period. It's been a long time since the two sisters sat down so well.
recalled when my mother brought me to Jiang's house. The first thing she saw was a little girl, standing by the gardenia bushes and playing. Clear eyes, smiling like flowers. That was Wanning's first impression, but Jiang Lingyan couldn't be happy.
For this new family, there is also this young lady who came out of thin air. She was a little jealous, jealous of her father's sole favor and Wanning. So during the New Year's holidays, she would always secretly cut Wanning's clothes. I often burn those beautiful jewelry.
Later, Jiang Lingyan entered the palace and became Zhaoyi. I thought it would be forever favored, but I didn't expect to meet Wanning again. Now that time has been negligent, Jiang Lingyan sighed a little: "The previous thing was that the palace couldn't stand you." Only now, only you and I help each other. ”
Her meaning is very clear, she wants Wanning to help her as the queen, and she will help Wanning to keep the position of the maid in front of the palace. The two phases are used, each for its own benefit. Wanning listened to Jiang Lingyan's suggestion, and the scene of her disfigurement immediately appeared in her mind, and she still remembered it vividly.
Originally, she had to occupy the position of this maid in front of the palace so that she could avenge Jiang Lingyan's disfigurement. Jun Hao's "draft" made her resentful and confused, and she was wondering how to do things from the show girl. Now, it seems that there is no need for that.
If Jiang Lingyan agrees to this request, then she only needs Wanning to endure her hatred for the time being. Take retreat as advance, help Jiang Lingyan first and gain her trust. I believe that if she takes revenge again, Jiang Lingyan will not be wary.
It was a good idea, and she took a sip of tea. Then he nodded in agreement: "Okay, I promise you." It's just that this matter can't be discovered by others, especially Xiao Lang - "If Xiao Yihan knew about it, he would definitely stop it."
When Jiang Lingyan heard this, she immediately smiled. hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Wan Ning's hand, and said with a smile: "In the end, it is from our Jiang family, I know that my sister will not leave my sister and I don't care!" "My surname is Yan," Wan Ning coldly withdrew her hand.
These words left Jiang Lingyan without a step to go down. She dreamed of becoming a queen at first, and in the end, she needed Wanning's help. It seems that things in the world are always unpredictable. For the sake of the posterior, she can betray her love, betray Donglu, or make a deal with someone.
Because Jiang Lingyan knew that she was betrayed first. It is possible to be demoted from the palace at any time, if you become a queen. When the time comes, it will be a troublesome thing to scrape, and she must train her own people as soon as possible. Xiao Yihan is her backing, plus a Yan Wanning.
"Ning'er, what should I do?" Jiang Lingyan did not hesitate to lower her Zhaoyi identity for the sake of her own posteriority. Now that she is in Changchun Palace, she is missing a shrewd ruler, and she feels that she is missing her right-hand man. The graceful Zhengyang Hall is far away from himself.
At this time, there was a knock in the western ocean on the wall, and it was already late at night. Wan Ning stretched her waist and was about to get up to deliver rice wine to Jun Hao. Before leaving, he said casually: "Xiao Lang is already investigating Princess Chen Guo, how to choose the show girl, and Lao Zhaoyi bothered to ......"
Looking at Wanning's figure gradually moving away, Jiang Lingyan suddenly became overjoyed. Counting the days, it should be Princess Chen Guo who entered the palace first. There is no way to stop this, but when the show girl enters the palace. She is a nine-grade Zhaoyi, and she can still be disciplined, and she can't help but admire Wanning a little.
At the beginning of winter, the sun is still fine. The soft light gently sprinkled on the clouds. It seems to be plated with a layer of gold edges, which is very beautiful. Wan Ning sat at the table, thinking about how to plan this draft. I sat all morning, and not a single thought came.
Because Xianyun has always been uncomfortable these days, Wan Ning and Wang Lianying alternated with each other and went to Zhengyang Hall to be on duty. Change someone every other day, so you don't get too tired. Today, for example, it's time to rest. Just right, let her free up her hands to plan this matter.
Outside the window, the sunlight is gently refracted and evenly spread on the white rice paper. Just as Wanning tilted her head, thinking carefully about the problem. But I heard Wang Lianying's laughter behind me: "It's time for the girl to take a break, if something is wrong with her tiredness." ”
Listening to Wang Lianying's voice, Wan Ning came back to her senses unconsciously. put down the brush and responded with a smile: "The prince doesn't go to the Zhengyang Palace, how can he have spare time to come here to the slave maid?" She said as she got up to make tea. All of a sudden, the fragrance of tea overflowed.
Wang Lianying was sipping tea while looking at a little ink on the paper. knew that Wan Ning must have encountered something difficult, otherwise why had she not used her pen and ink for so long. Unconsciously smiled slightly, and said casually: "The emperor is resting, I'll take a walk casually." ”
Since Wan Ning entered the palace, it has been a long time. With Wang Lianying's guess, she knew what Wanning was thinking. Although she is a maid in front of the palace, she has a heart-to-heart for Chu Junhao. In the past, she refused to be a concubine, and she was still hesitating about her heart.
Three years of negligence have passed in a hurry, with a graceful smile and every thought. was all thoroughly explored by Wang Lianying, plus he was exiled to Yuchi with Chu Junhao. For more than a year, Wan Ning learned what survival is. In Wang Lianying's opinion, Wan Ning will definitely think about it.
A few days ago, Chu Junhao said the meaning of the draft. Wang Lianying doesn't agree very much, a prince has been found, just train it. The second large-scale draft made the people who were already angry again, nervous and panicked.
However, according to Wang Lianying's thoughts, this draft also contains a layer of meaning. It is necessary to choose a virtuous and virtuous daughter as the queen, and after a hundred years, raise the little prince well. Even if the little prince is not talented, the son of the queen can be the crown prince, which is even more justified.
Although Jiang Lingyan is bent on being the last, her desire is too strong. In addition, she is bent on cultivating her own forces, if she cooperates with Xiao Yihan, then the harem will be chaotic again. Although Xiao Yihan was accepted as a talisman, his position was still very strong.
"Rather than hesitating here, it's better to go with the flow," Wang Lianying said in a low voice, "If the girl arouses the emperor's suspicion, then the emperor will not hesitate to abolish the girl's position as the emperor." "How could it be, Wanning was very surprised when she heard it.
But how could this not happen? Wan Ning is just a maid, but she is very close to Jun Hao. The relationship is extraordinary, and he knows many things in the palace, including Jun Hao's palace affairs. How could Jun Hao not be vigilant, how could he not be suspicious.
The draft is a major event in the world, and the selected show girl can be the concubine. A show girl who is not selected can also be used as a princess or the wife of a prince. The rest of the show girls are distributed one by one according to the quota of each palace. The laws that have been there since ancient times have not changed.
According to these statements, Zhengyang Hall has one less maid because Xianyun is pregnant. "Girl, don't be sad," Wang Lianying said with a smile, "If you join forces with Ling Zhaoyi, and the old slave helps her, the girl will definitely keep her position......
In the sky, a row of geese flew by chance. They lined up in a neat line and flew south. Thinking about what Wang Lianying said, it was Wanning's heart. She just planned to join forces with Jiang Lingyan. It's just that Wang Lianying suddenly got involved, what is the purpose.
Under the eaves of the porch, there is a plum blossom tree that has bloomed. This is the earliest plum blossom in full bloom in the palace. It's red, like a candle flame in winter. Palace people often use this plum blossom, mashed and dried. It is made into rouge and used, and is also called "rouge plum".
The water is open, and the wind by the lake is even more chilly. Wan Ning unconsciously hugged her arms tightly, and all she thought about in her mind were every word of Wang Lianying. He clearly knew that he and Jiang Lingyan had hatred. Could it be that he has a plan of his own?
It's ridiculous, he's a chief eunuch. He who has no children and no daughters, what can he plot? The word "children" swept through his mind, and he thought of Xianyun. Once Xianyun was arrested in the palace, he was raised by Wang Lianying, and he was also recognized as "uncle".
When you think about it this way, all the problems make sense. It can be seen that Wang Lianying does not want to choose another maid to replace Xianyun's position. After all, after Xianyun gave birth to a child, he could still serve in Zhengyang Palace. The same can take care of your own retirement.
This is about Wang Lianying's "scheme". Thinking about it this way, he is quite a scheming person. When he failed to escape from Kyoto, he was captured by Duanmu Ruiping. It was very clever to do the internal response of the eastern foot and assist in the restoration of the country.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, the Xianyun he is for is actually for himself. If there is no Xianyun, what will he do if he is lonely and helpless in his old age. The ruler who cultivated it single-handedly went to become a monk. Leave behind a cloud that he must protect.
"The emperor wants to drink rice wine," Wang Lianying stepped aside and whispered. She unconsciously turned around and looked at Wang Lianying, who was humble to herself. I really secretly admired his city, so I sneered. walked up to his side and said softly: "The mind of the prince is as deep as the sea!" ”
The meaningful words made Wang Lianying tremble. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The old slave has never thought of anything wrong, girl Mingjian!" "Don't talk nonsense to me!" Wan Ning said fiercely, "It's good that you can keep Xianyun, help me." But just, don't hurt me. ”
This is Wan Ning's thoughts, since Wang Lianying is bent on protecting Xianyun. Inevitably, not in the future, for his own status. Kicking herself out of the Zhengyang Palace, she had to guard against this hand. makes Wang Lianying afraid of herself, but she is willing to help herself.
Watching him keep kowtowing and admitting his mistakes, Wan Ning let out a long sigh. Waving his hand, he said impatiently: "Come on!" Get up -- how are the drafts in the prefectures and counties? This is the first step in her cooperation with Wang Lianying.
Xiao Yihan investigated Princess Chen Guo for her, and Jiang Lingyan was responsible for the work of the show girl after entering the palace. Wang Lianying is responsible for going to various places to investigate the selection of show girls. With three plans, Wanning is bound to maintain her position. Only when you take revenge for disfigurement can you stop.
The wind gently stirred the graceful green silk, and she listened to Wang Lianying say it one by one. I generally understand in my heart that all prefectures and counties are recruiting show girls. Each government office always reported ten beautiful girls, the distance was far away, and the court had to pay silver. Silver money, read these two words gracefully.
