It was late at night, and the rat lice in the cold palace also crawled out of the darkness. Lu Guanlan lay on the straw mat in the corner of the wall, looking at the night sky outside the broken window paper, like a stiff piece of wood.

It's winter, it's getting colder and colder outside, it should be colder than outside, although her consciousness is a little blurred, but she also knows, don't call the child in her belly frozen.

She wanted to get the cold bun on the table, and tried to move her arm, but because of the arrival of Lu Jingzhu half a month ago, she broke her waist. She only felt that her bone marrow was full of ice ballast, which made her feel painful, but she wanted to live, and only if she lived, the child in her belly could live.

In the Chengyuan Palace, there are groups of imperial doctors, and the emperor's favorite Lu Guifei is lying on the couch.

Cheng Ye threw the teacup and shouted angrily: "So many people, are they all a bunch of waste!" Since I can't cure the concubine's heart disease, I don't need to raise a bunch of waste, come on! ”

The imperial doctors knelt on the ground and trembled, Gu didn't dare to say clearly, what kind of heart disease is the concubine, it is clear that there is no disease and no pain, but the medicine is useless, let them take a look, naturally they can't see the reason.

At this time, a medical officer kneeling at the end of the imperial doctor stood up and bowed his head: "The lower official has a prescription that can cure the mother's heart disease." ”

A smile flashed on the face of the concubine on the couch who seemed to be in unbearable pain.

The medical officer buried his head very low, so that people could not see the weakness of the heart under his eyes, "People's hearts can be used as medicine." ”

When someone came to the cold palace, Lu Guanlan thought that Cheng Ye was here to pick her up, after all, with Cheng Ye's flesh and blood, even if he hated himself, he should have some pity.

Until a sharp blade was presented in front of her, the little eunuch beside him bowed down to her with a smirk on his face, and said softly: "Niangniang, the heart disease of the noble concubine Niangniang needs to be used as medicine in the human heart, and the slave is this-offended." ”

Her eyes widened in horror as she watched the sharp tip of the knife against her heart, staring at the tip of the knife and not an inch into her chest.

"Guanlan, this king doesn't care about your appearance, what this king wants is your heart."

"Guanlan, as long as you marry King Chen, you can ensure the prosperity of the family in the future, you are your father's most well-behaved daughter and concubine, you should have this responsibility."

"Guanlan, when I ascend the throne, I will definitely make you the most noble woman in the world."

"Guanlan, this is your half-sister, how can you be so vicious!"

"Sister, do you really think that the emperor will like your ghost-like face?"

"Lu Guanlan, don't let me see you again."

What kind of concubine's responsibility is nothing more than marrying her to an unfavored prince whose family is unwilling to bet. I don't care about my appearance, I just want to borrow the wealth and power of the Lu family. What sisters and sisters, she should have seen all this clearly, because she was stupid, she was willing to be a stepping stone for others.

"Haha, hahahahaha!" Somehow, Lu Guanlan laughed, and the laughter was ghostly, hideous and terrifying. Naruno, you said you wanted my heart, and now you have done it. In the next life, if there is an afterlife, she must trample them on the soles of her feet, turn them into mud, crush their bones and scatter ashes, and let these people also taste the pain of eating bones and souls!

"Miss, miss?" Ah Li heard the shouting from the room, thinking that something was wrong with the young lady, but said that it was a dream, and she was afraid that she would get up the next day and suffer a nightmare, so she was busy trying to wake her up.

Lu Guanlan was covered in sweat, his hands were protecting his lower abdomen, shivering in the quilt as if he was extremely cold, and when he heard Ah Li's shout, his eyes opened suddenly.

Seeing that she woke up, Ah Li breathed a sigh of relief and asked softly, "Miss, but is she in a nightmare?" The slave maid went to pour a glass of water for the young lady first," and got up from the side of the bed.

Lu Guanlan didn't react, and pulled the corners of the main Ali sleeves, his eyes were dull, and there was a layer of hazy ashes. In the middle of the night, she stood up and rushed to the door, looking up at the white lantern hanging in front of the door. So everything before was it all a dream?

No, it can't be a dream, if it's a dream, the heart-wrenching pain is too real. Those pasts can be vividly remembered by her. But if it's not a dream—then she's living a new life!

"Miss, eat something, don't starve yourself," Ah Li took the porridge and watched the young lady sitting in the courtyard, looking at the sky with a sneering expression. Since she woke up from her dream last night, the young lady has been sitting in the courtyard like this, and it has been past noon, and seeing that the sunset is approaching, she has not seen the young lady move, and the young lady who is talking beside her has not heard it.

Ah Li thought that Lu Guanlan was missing her mother. The old man passed away last year, and the young lady was already sad, but unexpectedly, the disasters happened one after another, and now the eldest lady is gone, and there is really no one who hurts the young lady in this house.

Lu Guanlan looked at the glow that fell into the afterglow, as if the past had been submerged into the dust. She's already died once, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

She felt that her heart was empty, and she didn't know if it was because she had been stripped of her heart or because she had lost a precious person.

She used this day to think back to the past, she wanted to remember it one by one, and she wanted to write it down one by one. God gave her an afterlife, and she naturally would not live up to her vow before she died. These owe her, she wants to get them back one by one.

"Li," she said, standing up, "I'm hungry." ”

Drinking porridge, listening to Ah Li count what he saw and heard in the courtyard. said that there was a Taoist priest in the front hall, I don't know what the master said, and the lord wanted to bury the eldest lady if he didn't have the first seven days.

Ah Li was afraid that talking about the eldest lady would make the young lady sad again, so she hurriedly stopped the conversation, and said that a new chef had been recruited in the backyard, and I heard that the craftsmanship was first-class, and it was invited from the eldest lady's maiden family.

Lu Guanlan listened while recalling what he was doing at this time in his previous life. She remembers that when her father said that she would bury her mother early, she was heartbroken and stayed in the mourning hall for three days, and finally fainted when her mother's coffin was about to be carried out. After waking up, Aunt Song came to see her with a bowl of porridge. She still remembers that she ate a lot of porridge because it looked like her mother had made it herself. After that, Aunt Song said that if she likes to eat, she will let the cook cook it for her every day in the future. But it didn't take long for her to get a rash on her face, and then she was disfigured.

This Aunt Song is Lu Jingzhu's biological mother and has become her stepmother.

In her previous life, she didn't notice that much, but she wasn't stupid, she just didn't doubt the intentions of these people. Probably because he lost his mother and longed for maternal love too much, he couldn't see Aunt Song's hypocrisy.

"Miss, Mama Zhang is here to spread the word, let everyone go to the eldest lady's funeral hall" The second girl, Xiaoju, ran from outside the courtyard, and before she could salute, she panted and reported. Xiaoju, this girl is quick and lively, and the girls in the yard rarely control her on weekdays, and she doesn't care about these, but today, it seems that what happened at the beginning is indispensable to the people or things around her.

Thinking about it, she asked, "Ah Li said that there is a new cook in the backyard, does Xiao Ju know?" ”

Xiao Ju seemed a little dazed, and didn't understand why Miss asked this, but she still nodded and said she knew.

She added, "If you meet the cook, tell him that I love almond and lotus seed soup." ”

She would not doubt Xiao Ju's loyalty, but she knew that someone would take advantage of Xiao Ju's innocence, and instead of letting people take care of it, she should take the initiative to tell her. Besides, there are many people who love to eat almond lotus seed soup.
