Chapter 24: The Soul Asks for His Life
Tian Ning obediently squatted there and took steps, and Zhong Lichun corrected his posture from time to time beside him. Squatting on a pillar of incense, Tian Ning's legs trembled. He glanced at Zhong Lichun and saw that she was sitting precariously, staring at herself with a serious face. Tian Ning swallowed his saliva and swallowed back what he wanted to say. Grit your teeth and insist.
Zhong Lichun watched Tian Ning's legs tremble, still biting his lip and insisting, the sweat on his little face dripping on the ground, his heart couldn't help but hurt, and he couldn't help but want to tell him to stop, but after thinking about it, the hardships he endured were the hardships of the people, and his basic skills were not solid, just like the heels of trees were unstable, and they would fall down when the wind blew. So he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
Tian Ning saw that she was silent, and she didn't dare to beg for mercy, so she insisted. Li Ping was stunned when he watched from the side, when did His Royal Highness become so resolute and obedient, he used to call him Zamabu, and after less than a pillar of incense, he stood up and practiced something else, and kept saying that it was useless to tie this. Today the sun came out in the west, and it lasted for half an hour.
Zhong Lichun looked at the hourglass, and when the hour came, he motioned for Tian Ning to get up. Tian Ning heard this, his body relaxed, plopped, and fell to the ground. Zhong Lichun took a step forward and picked him up, put him on the chair, stretched out his slender jade hand, and gently rubbed the acupoint near Tian Ning's kneecap, and lost a little bit of real power.
Tian Ning only felt that the knee pain had disappeared, and there was a slight feeling of warmth and numbness, which was very comfortable.
Zhong Lichun rubbed it for a while and asked softly, "Are you better?" ”
Tian Ning nodded, "It's a lot more comfortable, thank you, sister, you're so good." ”
"Really?" Zhong Lichun chuckled, "Then Ning'er will start practicing the internal strength method!" ”
Li An silently retreated and stood at the gate of the palace. Tian Ning sat cross-legged, and between exhaling and inhaling according to Zhong Lichun's mantra, he suddenly felt comfortable. Slight fever in the lower abdomen.
Zhong Lichun sat silently on the side and watched Tian Ning's face. Seeing that he looked as usual. After about an hour, Tian Ning opened his eyes and jumped off the chair. Xinxi exclaimed: "Sister, your method is very good, I am not tired at all now, and my feet are very comfortable." It doesn't hurt at all.
"Well, in the future, Ning'er will follow what my sister taught you, it is much better than you practice like this, and it will be enough to protect yourself if your sister leaves you in the future. My sister was relieved. ”
Tian Ning's eyes rolled, and he grabbed Zhong Lichun's hand and said, "Sister plans to leave the palace." ”
Zhong Lichun smiled lightly, "My sister won't leave for the time being, but there will be a day sooner, and when Ning'er grows up, she will understand." ”
Tian Ning took her hand and said, "Sister, don't leave, okay, just stay with Ning'er in the palace, okay?" ”
Zhongli Chunwan smiled, "Sister just said this, and she didn't leave immediately, if there was no accident, my sister would always stay in the palace to accompany Ning'er."
"Great, my sister has to talk and count." Tian Ning said happily.
Zhong Lichun nodded with a smile, looked at the sky, and said, "Ning'er, I'll go back first, and I'll come over to accompany you tomorrow." ”
Tian Ning sent Zhong Lichun out of the palace gate, looked at the distant back, reluctantly returned to the study, took a book, and watched it carefully.
Zhong Lichun returned to Xiangningju, Chen Yu had prepared the meal early, Zhong Lichun had just eaten and wanted to take a hot bath. I saw Chen Yujin hurriedly come in and said, "Sister, Wang Zhaoyi is asking to see you outside the door." ”
Zhong Lichun heard this, "Please come in." After speaking, he walked quickly to the living room and saw Wang Zhaoyi pacing back and forth in the living room.
As soon as he saw her, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sister, the method you said is really useful and can attract the attention of the king." ”
Zhong Lichun smiled slightly, "It will definitely attract the attention of the king, but if you are not favored, you have to rely on your own ability." ”
Wang Zhaoyi gritted her teeth, "It's better to fight than to be obscure and die in the harem." ”
Zhong Lichun said with a smile, "Then my sister will congratulate my sister in advance, as long as my sister can win the favor of the king, even if it is the last position, as long as my sister follows my sister's idea." Anything is possible. ”
"Really?" Wang Zhaoyi's eyes lit up and her expression was abnormal.
Zhong Lichun smiled lightly, "As long as my sister acts according to the plan." ”
Wang Zhaoyi's face was full of joy, "Thank you so much for my sister's guidance, my sister will go back to prepare first, if it doesn't succeed, it's tonight." ”
Zhong Lichun nodded and sent her to the door. Wang Zhaoyi hurriedly said goodbye and returned to his palace.
Zhong Lichun turned around, took a hot bath, sat cross-legged on the bed, practiced internal skills for a while, jumped out of the palace gate, gently came to the roof of Kunning Palace, and lifted the tiles.
I saw Xia Yingchun with an angry face, sitting on the phoenix seat, and a few teacups on the ground were smashed. The palace ladies stood trembling to the side, trembling all over. The atmosphere didn't dare to come out.
Xia Yingchun shouted: "Say, the king really went to the Zhaoyi Palace? ”
The palace maid said tremblingly: "Queen Qiyu, yes, it was the slave maid who watched the king and Wang Zhaoyi return to the Zhaoyi Hall together. ”
Xia Yingchun hatefully swept the teacup on Zhuo Zi to the ground, and said hatefully: "Slut, I won't give her a good look tomorrow." Serve the main palace to bathe, change clothes and sleep. ”
The palace maid trembled and prepared hot water and served her to bathe and change clothes. Xia Yingchun lay on the phoenix collapse, tossing and turning, sleeping in a daze. In his sleep, he heard Zhong Lichun's voice ringing in his ears, "Good sister, I'm here to ask for a debt, you pay me back!" The voice was miserable and cold, as if it was the Nine Hells.
"Ah......h Don't come here, go away, you don't look for me. Xia Yingchun woke up, opened his eyes, and shouted: "Come and hold the lamp." ”
A palace maid had already come in to light the palace lamps and candles, Xia Yingchun gasped for a moment and wiped the cold sweat on her head. Asked, "Did you just hear anything?" ”
Several palace maids looked at each other and shook their heads in unison, "I haven't heard any sound, is Niangniang hallucinating?" ”
"Really?" Xia Yingchun was a little puzzled, could it really be that he had heard it wrong. It was at this moment that Zhong Lichun's cold voice sounded again. Xia Yingchun's face changed greatly, and he asked sharply, "Didn't you really hear any sounds?" The palace ladies shook their heads together.
Xia Yingchun was shocked, and shouted loudly, and carefully searched the palace to see if there were any suspicious people or objects. Suddenly, the Kunning Palace was brightly lit, and the palace maids and eunuchs searched the Kunning Palace inside and out. Nothing was found.
Zhong Lichun had already returned to Xiangningju, lying on the bed, closing his eyes and sleeping peacefully.
In the early morning of the next day, Xia Yingchun got up early, sat with dark circles under her eyes and waited for the show girl to come to ask for peace, her apricot eyes swept away, and she didn't see Wang Zhaoyi coming, so she shouted: "Go and summon Wang Zhaoyi to see the palace." ”
A palace maid had already come to the Zhaoyi Palace, but she saw the great eunuch Wang Ping guarding the door beside the king, and shouted at her: "Bold, the king is sleeping peacefully, who dares to disturb." The palace maid frightened Nuo Nuo retreated to Kunning Palace.
Xia Yingchun saw the palace maid coming back alone, and after listening to the palace maid's advice, he angrily smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground, his chest rose and fell violently, and his face turned pale.
Zhong Lichun was hidden among the show girls, seeing this scene, he smiled secretly in his heart, Xia Yingchun, your good days are over, and today is just the beginning.
Xia Yingchun was furious and ordered all the show girls to retreat. Zhong Lichun and the show girl withdrew from the Kunning Palace together, and the bold show girl walked around the gate of the Zhaoyi Palace.
Zhong Lichun smiled secretly in his heart, followed the show girls to the imperial garden, and quietly slipped to the prince's bedroom.
In the bedroom of Zhaoyi Palace, Qi Xuan Wang Tianyujiang hugged Wang Zhaoyi and lowered his head and kissed her. With a satisfied smile: "Beauty, the lonely king will not go to court today, so I will accompany you here!"
Wang Zhaoyi pulled the quilt over his naked body, leaned softly on Tian Yujiang's chest, stretched out his slender jade hand, hugged Tian Yujiang's neck, and said shyly: "The king is too brave, the concubine can't resist it, she is tired, and she didn't go to the queen to say goodbye in the morning, I'm afraid the queen will tear off the skin of the concubine." drank the blood of his concubines. ”
Tian Yujiang raised his eyebrows, "Last time I heard that the queen beat you for twenty boards. ”
Wang Zhaoyi covered up her shyness, turned to Shun with tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Just because the king stayed in the Zhaoyi Palace, the concubine went late, and the queen wanted to kill the concubine with a cane. The king saves the concubine, but the concubine doesn't want to die! ”
Wang Zhaoyi's crying pear blossoms brought rain, and her tears were fluttering, and Tian Yujiang's chest was wet all of a sudden. Wang Zhaoyi She was really scared, if Tian Yujiang didn't protect herself, she would really die, so she cried really, naturally, and didn't fake it at all.
Tian Yujiang looked at the sadness of the beauty crying in his arms, his face was full of fear, the pear blossoms brought rain, his little face was pale, and he had a different style, remembering last night's ecstasy. couldn't help but smile, hugged her tightly in his arms, and said, "Don't be afraid, if this king raises you as a concubine, she won't dare to punish you." ”
"Really......." Wang Zhaoyi couldn't believe it.
"This king's words are like a mountain, how can there be a deception, wait for this king first, and this king will immediately issue a decree to seal the concubine." Tian Yujiang said as he moved his hands.
Wang Zhaoyi was overjoyed, hugged Tian Yujiang's neck tightly, and whispered in his ear: "How does the king want his concubines to wait?" Otherwise, how about the concubine call another concubine in and serve the king together. ”
Tian Yujiang was overjoyed, laughing, or the lone king's mind that the beauty understands, go and call it. The Lone King was a little impatient.
Wang Zhaoyi's eyes rolled, "The matter of the concubine." ”
Tian Yujiang shouted loudly: "Come here, spread the will of the lonely king, crown Wang Zhaoyi as the royal concubine, and stay in the concubine palace." ”
"Yes. The minions will do it right away. Wang Ping heard it at the door, and immediately took the order to go down to make arrangements.
After hearing this, Wang Zhaoyi didn't care about getting dressed, pulled a gauze robe and draped it on her body, knelt on the bed to thank her, and called the palace maid who was guarding the outer room to invite Li Jieyu.
Tian Yujiang looked at the jade skin in the tulle, and the towering and proud peaks loomed. There was still bearable, the two hugged each other tightly, as soon as Li Jieyu walked into the bedroom, she saw a shameful scene, swallowed her saliva, closed her eyes, and didn't dare to look.
Tian Yujiang and Wang Zhaoyi dragged her to bed. Three times and two times stripped her dress. Li Jieyu was a little resistant at first, but then slowly cooperated.
Xia Yingchun heard the palace maid's announcement, and angrily smashed the porcelain of Kunning Palace, but he was helpless. The concubine's position is only one level lower than herself, and now the king spoils her again, but she can't come clearly.
Xia Yingchun gritted his teeth with hatred, vented fiercely, and told the palace maid to clean up, rearrange it, sit on the bed, close her eyes and ponder. After thinking about it, I already have an idea in my mind. Summoned the palace maid, whispered a few words, and the palace maid hurried down.
Zhong Lichun returned to Ningxiang Pavilion in the evening, and heard Chen Yujin say that King Qi Xuan, who did not go to the court to govern today, tore up with Wang Zhaoyi and Li Jieyu in the Zhaoyi Hall all day long, and named Wang Zhaoyi as a concubine and Li Jieyu as Concubine Li.
Zhong Lichun laughed secretly in his heart after hearing this, Xia Yingchun must have even exploded his heart and lungs now, but he was helpless. Presumably, if it doesn't work, it will definitely come to the yin. After dinner, Zhong Lichun finished practicing his internal skills, and quietly slipped to Kunning Palace, hung a golden hook upside down, and sent a snow note to Xia Yingchun's bed with internal force. and used the technique of transmitting sound into the secret, and said coldly to Xia Yingchun: "Xia Yingchun, I didn't expect you to have today, and I ...... my life!" The last word dragged out the voice. It's like the sound of a ghost coming out of hell.
"Ahh Hell! Come on, come on! Xia Yingchun woke up in shock, drenched in cold sweat and pale.
The palace maid heard Xia Yingchun's call, and hurriedly rushed in to light the palace lamps and candles. Xia Yingchun's face turned pale, and he asked with palpitations: "Have you heard a woman's voice, the voice is cold, as if it came from hell." The palace ladies looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
Xia Yingchun was full of suspicions, staring at the palace maids, seeing that they didn't look like lying, remembering the sound they heard, he couldn't help but straighten his hairs, could it really be that Zhong Lichun's resentful soul came to ask for his life. casually shook his head, how could this be!
At this time, a palace maid saw the snow note on the bed, picked it up and looked at it, screamed in fright, and threw the snow note out.
Xia Yingchun's apricot eyes widened, and she shouted: "What did you write, bring it to me." ”
The palace maid picked up the snow note tremblingly, and handed the snow note to Xia Yingchun with trembling hands.
Xia Yingchun took the snow note and looked at it, like five thunderbolts, and shouted, "Ah......." His eyes rolled and he fainted.
The palace maids were shocked, busy pinching people, and went to ask for a doctor. The imperial doctor hurriedly arrived, made a diagnosis and treatment, said that he was restless and stimulated, and prescribed a prescription, and the palace maid hurriedly went to decoction the medicine.
