Chapter 35: Lin Yueyao

After days of investigation, he finally found out the real culprit who caused the fire - Xiaowei next to Concubine De. %&*";

After Concubine De was deposed, Ziling fulfilled her promise and interceded for Xiaowei, who escaped death and was sent back to Lengyue Palace to serve Concubine De. It's just that after those things, there was an irreparable rift between Concubine De and Xiaowei: Concubine De hated that Concubine De didn't follow her instructions to let the snake bite Xinyu to death, but also told her about her to Zilinghe, and Xiaowei hated Concubine De for not saving herself.

Soon, Xiaowei's father was imprisoned for hurting people over a land dispute. Xiaowei begged Concubine De to help save her father, but Concubine De flatly refused, Xiaowei held a grudge and decided to die with Concubine De.

A fire burned half of the Cold Moon Palace and took Concubine De's life, but Xiaowei was saved by mistake. When the emperor and the empress dowager ordered a strict investigation into the matter, Xiaowei went to Cining Palace to surrender.

She knelt in front of the Queen Mother and wept bitterly: "After following Concubine De Niangniang for so many years, the slave maid has never received even a trace of pity and love, but has learned intrigue and trickery. The slave has done so many bad things, and it is time for retribution. ”

"The reason why the slave and maid were rescued may be because I still owe you an explanation to the Queen Mother, today, what should be said and what should not be said, the slave and maid have said it, I just hope that the Queen Mother can know the personality of Concubine De, and also understand the suffering of our slaves."

The Queen Mother was in tears, angry and ashamed: "Yu'er! The mourning family has hurt you in vain all these years! This is your retribution! Retribution......"

That night, Xiaowei committed suicide by taking arsenic in the prison. Where does arsenic come from in the prison? It turned out that because of the "snake infestation", a large amount of realgar was sprinkled in the palace, which contains sulfur and arsenic, and when heated to a certain temperature, it will be oxidized into arsenic (i.e., arsenic trioxide) in the air.

After Yongle Palace sprinkled realgar, Ziling was afraid that the palace maids would accidentally cause an accident, so he told them this chemical principle, and Xiaowei was taking care of Yu'er in Yongle Palace at that time. %&*"; Unexpectedly, Xiaowei applied what she learned and used the knowledge she taught her to kill herself!

More than half a month has passed since the fire, Su Zirong's burns have improved a lot, and his mood has gradually stabilized, only occasionally crying inexplicably. Zi Ling ordered someone to remove the bronze mirror from her room, and specially instructed the palace maids of Yongle Palace not to dress up too beautifully, so as not to irritate her.

Meng Hongyu will come to Yongle Palace to see her when she is free, although she is still as cold as ice, but it can be seen that the distance between them is gradually narrowing, shrinking from an insurmountable gap to a small mountain stream that can be crossed.

Jiuxiao Huanpei was burned down by that fire, and for this, Su Zirong was sad for a long time. She carefully treasured the remnant qin, Meng Hongyu saw this situation, and was even more determined to make up for her.

Gradually, her burns were healed, except for a few shallow scars on her right cheek and arm.

When spring and summer came, Meng Hongyu gave Su Zirong to move to Yongnian Palace, although she had not yet been named a concubine, but there was a palace in the three palaces for her to live for a long time, this is the treatment that many people dream of! However, she resolutely refused to go to Yongnian Palace, saying that she was willing to continue to live in Lengyue Palace, because Yongnian Palace was where Concubine De once lived!

So, before the Xihuatang was repaired, Su Zirong continued to live in the Yongle Palace and was accompanied by Ziling.

They tasted tea, played chess, played the piano, talked about poetry and lyrics, and gradually, Ziling found that he was so similar to Su Zirong, the same hobbies, the same mood, the same plainness, and more importantly, the same love for the man named Meng Hongyu!

The difference is that Su Zirong has more vicissitudes, and Xiao Ziling has more intelligence. Sometimes, Ziling is also in a trance, is Meng Hongyu's favor for himself mixed with his feelings for Su Zirong? Or, does he like women like her and Su Zirong?

Watching him look at her and treat her affectionately every day, Ziling felt sad, she could feel that Meng Hongyu loved Su Zirong more, and Xiao Ziling's grace to her was not as good as Su Zirong's!

After the death of Concubine De, Meng Hongyu was especially kind to bury her with the specifications of the concubine. The Queen Mother was sad for a long time, but fortunately, Xinyang and Xinyu were by her side, which somewhat comforted her pain.

The death of Concubine De did not make the Queen Mother break the idea of letting the daughter of the Lin family become the queen, and soon, Lin Yueyu's cousin, eighteen-year-old Lin Yueyao, entered the palace under the arrangement of the Queen Mother.

Lin Yueyao was named Zhaorong and lived in Si'an Courtyard on the east side of Sitong Courtyard, so Lin Yueyao and Bai Rushuang naturally became "neighbors".

I heard that on the day Lin Yueyao entered the palace, she had a big quarrel with Bai Rushuang - Bai Rushuang's Xue'er ran to Si'an Courtyard and poured a soak of urine, Lin Yueyao was furious, grabbed Xue'er and threw it into the courtyard, Bai Rushuang saw it and scolded her for "dog fighting people".

Lin Yueyao cried all the way to Cining Palace, asking the Queen Mother to severely punish Bai Rushuang, but the Queen Mother only thought that she was playing with Miss Temper, and comforted her with kind words, but she didn't see the punishment Bai Rushuang.

A few days later, I heard that Lin Yueyao and Concubine Shu were sisters. Concubine Shu said a lot of things that were as white as frost in front of Lin Yueyao, Lin Yueyao felt that Concubine Shu and herself "saw the same thing as a hero", and the two hated each other late, and introduced each other as confidants.

When Ziling and Su Zirong heard the palace maids talk about these things, they only felt that this pair of "Jinlan sisters" was very ridiculous. They expected that with them making waves, life in the harem would be much more exciting!

What Ziling didn't expect was that the first wave of the "wind and waves" raised by Lin Yueyao hit her.

One morning, Zi Ling went to Cining Palace as usual to greet the Queen Mother, and before the Queen Mother finished washing, Zi Ling was waiting in the Guangshou Hall.

As soon as she saw Ziling, Yu'er ran to her side and became very close to her.

Lin Yueyao looked displeased when she saw this scene, and scolded sharply: "Yu'er, come to my aunt's side!" Remember who killed your mother! ”

Yu'er was frightened, stood dumbfounded and didn't dare to move, Zi Ling just didn't hear it, and continued to drink tea.

Bai Rushuang sneered and said, "Who killed it?" It's not her own sin! "Since it was found out that it was Concubine De who caused her to slip the tire, Bai Rushuang has hated Concubine De to the core.

Lin Yueyao was so angry that her face turned white, and she hurriedly ridiculed each other: "Yes, those who do their own evil are not blessed, either they can't give birth to children, or they can't keep children!" ”

Speaking of children, Bai Rushuang's heart was like a knife, and tears rolled in his eyes: "What if you give birth to a child?" If you don't love your own children, it's better not to give birth! ”

Although Yu'er was young, she also understood Bai Rushuang's words, she held Ziling's hand tightly, and crystal tears slipped down her cheeks one by one.

Ziling stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, held her beautiful face, and said to her gently: "Yu'er, can Niangniang take you outside to play for a while?" ”

Yu'er smiled lightly and nodded slightly.
