The eyelids opened little by little, and through the eyelashes, Concubine Zhen finally saw the silver aunt on the bed.

Yingu's empty eyes opened unfocused. The slightly thin body was not intact in any part of the body, covered with bruises and tooth marks. The one was red and swollen, with a few lacerations, and the sheets were covered in bright red blood.

Concubine Zhen looked at it in a daze for a long time, first shook her head desperately, stared at Yingu's body in disbelief, and finally couldn't cry or laugh, her whole body trembled, and she actually fell to the ground.

With an extremely sour taste, she breathed straight to her nose, making the nausea in her chest even stronger, her stomach was already empty, and in the end, it was all stomach acid vomited out, and she was drenched in a cold sweat.

She struggled to her feet, staggered to the door of the dormitory, and screamed, "Someone! ”

"The slave is here!" When Xiuya heard the sound, she immediately came in from outside, and when she saw the tears on Concubine Zhen's face, she was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Go and bring a basin of hot water and scoop up clean clothes." Concubine Zhen told the door and commanded weakly.

Xiuya quickly did it, and when Concubine Zhen took it, she indifferently ordered, "No one is allowed to come in without the order of this palace!" ”

"Yes, sis!"

Concubine Zhen turned around and knelt on the edge of the bed, the corners of her lips trembled slightly, and tears overflowed, "Yingu, this palace knows...... You love cleanliness, this palace gives you ...... Change into clean clothes. With the final parting, Concubine Zhen gently helped her wipe her body with tears.

When she was seven years old, her father brought back a thin little girl, who he said had been found in a war camp, and saw that her eyes were very bright, so he brought her back to be his daughter's playmate. Yingu was only nine years old that year.

Two young girls of the same age formed the most precious friendship in the bumpy years.

When she was fifteen years old, under her father's arrangement, she married Xiling's unfavored prince Lan Yuyan, and was ridiculed by the sisters of the same clan, only Yingu, holding her hands warmly, smiled brightly, "Miss, don't be afraid, wherever you go, Yingu will go, Yingu will not marry in her life, accompany Miss." ”

On the wedding night, the moment the red hijab was lifted, her heart was joyful.

The young prince in front of him is slender and upright like a Zhilan jade tree, his phoenix eyes are dyed like ink, and his exquisite facial features are like gods.

At that time, she just wanted to guard this deserted palace, talk with him in the cool breeze of summer nights, and drink a glass of warm wine on cold winter nights.

It's a pity that not long after the wedding, Lan Yuyan married Liu Qingyun, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although Liu Qingyun is a side concubine, she is the most favored lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she has an arrogant and domineering personality, and she does not look at her as a concubine in her eyes, and she is full of tricks in order to compete for favor. At that time, she had a cold personality, only guarding one inch of land, and she was unwilling to talk to Lan Yuyan when she encountered grievances.

After cleaning up, Concubine Zhen's miserable white face slowly walked to the window, suddenly pushed open the screen, the warm breeze of spring at the moment she opened the window, she couldn't wait to drill into her heart and lungs, take away the dark fragrance of a room, in such a warm spring, but can't drive away the coldness of this room, the despair of this room!

Concubine Zhen was motionless, she leaned against the window lattice with her eyes half-closed, her heart trembled clearly, and the things near and far flashed in front of her little by little, filtering, until noon, she stared out the window and the wind and willows, her eyes gradually revealed a trace of cruelty, and she chuckled.

As soon as he stepped out of the dormitory, there were groups of eunuchs and palace maids waiting outside, Xiuya hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said softly, "Niangniang, you haven't eaten for a day, the slaves and maids have prepared a few things you like to eat, you will use some first." ”

Concubine Zhen shook her head, her face was no longer desperate and stagnant, she was dyed with a smile, and ordered softly, "Prepare a room and let the palace bathe." ”

He turned around and looked at the dormitory, and instructed Xiuya, "Let people bury Yingu well, and then go to Jialan Temple to offer her an immortal plaque and receive some incense." ”

"Yes, the slave will send someone to do it immediately, please rest assured!" Is Yingu dead? Xiuya's heart was beating wildly, but her face moved.

The bottle on the side hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The slave will go and prepare." ”

Concubine Zhen said, "Prepare court clothes for this palace!" She left the Shen family in a first-class court dress, so the Shen family had to send off the imperial concubine with the etiquette. She wants Ning Chang'an, a mother and daughter, to kneel under her, and if that stinky girl dares to be arrogant and rude again, she will treat her for a crime of disrespect.

The eunuch on the side hurriedly responded, "Yes, Niangniang!" ”

After half a pillar of incense, the bottle replied that it had been arranged, and Xiuya helped Concubine Zhen to the back room, serving Concubine Zhen to take off her complicated skirt, "Niangniang, you have to take care of yourself." ”

Concubine Zhen smiled gloomily, her eyebrows and eyes were sad, "Who else slept in the Shen family last night?" ”

"The slave maid heard from Gonggong Ma that the Third Highness, the Sixth Highness, and the King of Lanjun left early in the morning, and the emperor and the lady concubine Niangniang went back to the palace last night, and the ministers dispersed until the end of the ugly time, and they also returned to their respective homes and did not stay in the Shen family." Xiuya leaned down slightly, and whispered in Concubine Zhen's ear, "The slave maid heard that after the Sixth Highness left, the Shen family's maid went to clean up, and found that the house had been cleaned, so she ordered the family to move the mahogany bed away. ”

"Move out? What do you do when you move the bed? Concubine Zhen asked casually, at this time, she couldn't let herself calm down, as long as her thoughts were empty, her mind immediately flashed the tragic situation of Yingu.

A slightly mocking smile bloomed on Xiuya's face, "I heard that this banquet, many of the things added were brought by the Ning family, especially the tables, chairs and beds, all of which are the Ning family's century-old collections, which will run out, so naturally they will be returned to the Ning family." Niangniang, the slave maid wanted to say, as soon as the bed was moved, I found that there was an article below. ”

"What article?"

"Swept out a pile of uncleaned hair under the bed, with blood stains on it. It is estimated that it was pressed to a corner, and it was not cleaned for a while. They also found that there were ...... There are whole nails, as if they have been pulled off alive, and even the flesh and blood, the girls are afraid to die. Later, I changed to a bold mother-in-law to go in. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Concubine Zhen raised her eyebrows, and her entire nails were pulled down, although she would not die, but it hurt enough.

"The slave and maid also heard that the smell of blood was very strong, as if it was not long. I don't know whose blood it is. ”

Concubine Zhen guessed a little in her heart, and immediately guessed that it was Shen Roujia. Last night, the sixth prince Zeng Qing ordered her, maybe after Lanting adjusted the bag, he would be a favor and give Shen Roujia to Lan Xiao.

"And then?" Concubine Zhen asked casually, she didn't care about Shen Roujia's life or death.

"Those mothers-in-law didn't dare to be the masters, so they sent someone to invite Miss Shen Er over, but Miss Shen Er only said that maybe it was the palace people who didn't wait well, which made His Royal Highness Six unhappy, and scolded him with a cane, nothing unusual, so everyone dispersed."

An hour later, Concubine Zhen came out dressed in a gorgeous dress. Xiuya was already waiting with the makeup box. She carefully helped Concubine Zhen paint delicate makeup. She has been serving Concubine Zhen for many years, and she understands that the more helpless a woman is, the more demanding she is about her appearance. Although Concubine Zhen is over forty years old, if the makeup is good, she will also look young and charming.

She swept the corners of her eyes with a layer of pale gold purple, flying slightly diagonally upward. In the rhombic mirror, Concubine Zhen, who has always been dignified and phoenixy, is also a little gorgeous today.

Concubine Zhen's depression finally dissipated a little, glanced at Xiuya with a smile, and asked, "When did you learn this kind of description?" ”

"I've learned it for a long time, but I haven't had the opportunity to use it. If you like it, the slave will give you one day at a time. Like this kind of outstanding, there are more than a dozen different ways to wear a dress. Xiuya smiled and put her things into the makeup box.

"I have a heart, I like it very much!" Now that Yingu is gone, the most intimate person around her is Xiuya, she sighed slightly in her heart, "Xiuya, follow the palace well, in the future, the things in the Yongning Palace, you have more ideas." ”

A trace of joy flashed on Xiuya's face, and she hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and after getting up, she said, "Niangniang, the third highness has passed a sedan chair for Niangniang early in the morning, and wants to send Niangniang back to the palace, which will have been waiting outside for a whole day." The people of the Shen family also came a few times to ask if the mother was okay and sent the slave maid. Send my mother back to the palace! Xiuya knelt down and straightened her skirt.

"What about King Ning?" Recalling the detached smile on the corner of Lan Ting's mouth this morning, Concubine Zhen's heart seemed to be hollowed out in half, she propped herself up weakly on the dressing table, caressing the dullness in her heart, and a layer of sweat secreted from her forehead.

"The Third Highness has gone to court, and it was Chief Manager Zhao who came to deliver the decree, saying that it was eight hundred miles to expedite, and the Third Highness was summoned to return to the palace immediately." Xiuya went to scoop a hot towel and carefully wiped the sweat from Concubine Zhen's forehead, "His Royal Highness instructed the slave maid to take good care of Niangniang, please cherish Niangniang's precious body!" ”

"Eight hundred miles expedited?" Concubine Zhen's eyebrows jumped, Xiling was in an emergency for 800 miles last time, and he was encountering a foreign invasion to slaughter the city, and the Lanting Jinluan Palace begged for a personal expedition on the spot. Today is 800 miles again, and the emperor urgently summoned Lanting, could it be for the ......

Concubine Zhen's eyebrows jumped, and she couldn't care about the sadness of the spring, and said hurriedly, "Why don't you report early, hurry, hurry, go back to the palace immediately!" ”

Xiuya said in a panic, "Yes, the slave will pass on the step!" "Concubine Zhen has been locked up in the bedroom alone for so long, how dare they fight together, when they come out, their faces are not right, everyone guesses that it must be the Third Highness who made Niangniang sad, so they didn't dare to face Lan Ting in front of her.

The palace people came over to wait, and Xiuya and the bottle carefully helped Concubine Zhen to sit down.

As soon as she walked out of the gate of the west courtyard, Concubine Zhen's expression had become cold, and she straightened her back and folded her hands in front of her knees. Along the way, the Shen family's maids and mothers-in-law bowed their heads one after another.

The eunuch Ma De was in front of him, stopped at the entrance of the inner hall, and after stepping forward to greet Concubine Zhen, he saluted, "Niangniang, Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen Er are sending off Feng Jia in the inner hall, do you want to bow down and receive the gift?" ”

Concubine Zhen glanced at Ma De coldly, and then looked at the surrounding maids and daughters-in-law kneeling on the ground, and suddenly laughed brightly, and her words were not without sarcasm, "Yes, why not, this palace is a concubine of a country, can't you stand Mrs. Shen's kneeling?" ”

Ma De hurriedly bowed down, and instead reported to the inner hall with a sharp voice, "Concubine Zhen has arrived!" ”

Concubine Zhen was dressed in a bright purple concubine dress, decorated with pearls and jade. A pair of apricot eyes, the corners of the eyes are depicted with purple gold swallowtails flying up slightly, and thousands of strands of green silk are combed into gorgeous and complex delphinium buns, which are both noble and bright.

"The people's woman is Ning Chang'an, please give Concubine Zhen Niangniang!"

"Shen Qianran, a folk girl, please say hello to Concubine Zhen!"

Ning Changan and Shen Qianran both knelt down and said goodbye!

Concubine Zhen's apricot eyes looked at Ning Chang'an like a crescent moon, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Flatten!" After the Shengdemen massacre, she was a little jealous of the person in the emperor's heart, at least she never dared to be disrespectful to her on the surface. She also knew that Lan Yuyan had given the warm blood jade that had been promised to her to the woman in front of her. For so many years, in front of people, she never dared to touch this forbidden place in the emperor's heart. But today, she hates it so much that she can't wait to tear this mother and daughter alive.

Shen Qianran supported her mother and stood beside her mother.

Concubine Zhen looked at the pair of extremely similar mother and daughter in front of her, a clever smile flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her words revealed a sense of pity, very much like a distressed look, "Mrs. Shen really gave birth to a good daughter!" The more I look at this palace, the more I like it! "Shen Qianran except that his eyes are not like his mother, no matter how you look at it, he is alive and well from Ning Changan when he was young.

Ning Changan half-lowered her head, Concubine Zhen couldn't see her expression clearly, and only heard her voice faintly, "The little girl made the mother fall in love by mistake!" ”

Concubine Zhen turned her eyes to look at Shen Qianran again, sneering in her heart, and there was a faint glow in her deep pupils, like winter frost, "Second Miss Shen is also seventeen years old!" The palace heard that since the king of Lanjun retired from the marriage of the Shen family, the second lady has not found a suitable husband until now. ”

When Shen Qianran heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Concubine Zhen, as if a demonic streamer flashed in his black eyes.

The eyes of the two met, and Concubine Zhen sneered frequently in her heart, don't think that you can avoid your fate by wearing a veil last night, she stepped forward, stretched out her hand, stroked Shen Qianran's eyebrows, and said in a faint voice, "However, with Miss Shen's appearance, as long as you see it, no man in the world will not be moved, Mrs. Shen, you are really blessed!" ”

Ning Changan raised her head and stared, her glass eyes bent slightly puzzled, and her expression was a little stiff, but Rao was like this, her smile was still like a stunning flower.

Concubine Zhen's heart was stuffy and gave birth to a wisp of sighs, born from the heart, and gradually spread, her heart was like a disturbed pool of water, this Ning Chang'an has reached such an age, she is still beautiful so much, she has become a demon!

Before Concubine Zhen left, she took a deep look at Shen Qianran for the last time, and an indescribable taste flooded Concubine Zhen's heart. For the sake of her son, she chose to send such a captivating woman to her husband's dragon bed, in this life, when will the shame brought to her by this mother and daughter will end.

Ryan sent Shen Qianran's painting to her hands, and held her several times, letting Shen Qianran enter the palace draft, but she only responded in vain, Shen Qianran's portrait has actually been in her Yongning Palace, and has not been sent to the hands of Chief Zhao.

Then, Lan Ting entered the palace and begged her, and she immediately promised Lan Ting that if she met Shen Qianran's name during the draft, she would be brushed off immediately, because she didn't want to add another strong opponent to herself.

Lan Yuyan is in her prime, if Shen Qianran enters the palace and is favored, it is difficult to ensure that she will not give birth to a prince and compete with Lan Ting for the heir.

Now it's different, Shen Qianran has directly threatened Lan Ting's mother-son relationship with her. If you want to break Lan Ting's thoughts, in this world, only Lan Yuyan has the ability to break up the two of them.

Even if Lan Ting complains about her for the rest of her life in the future, she will break up the two, she is looking forward to it now, to see how Ning Changan can endure it, let her daughter serve her old lover, she is even more looking forward to the day when Lan Jin will open her mouth to call Shen Qianran as her mother.

This twenty-year long-lasting chaos, she is looking forward to what kind of end it will end.
