Chapter 62: Righteousness in the Fire
An Yu walked towards Concubine Zhen, very puzzled: "Why is Niangniang here?" ”
Concubine Zhen lowered her eyes and smiled, looking very sarcastic: "Naturally, the emperor asked someone to bring me here." ”
When she spoke, she couldn't help but raise her head and roll her eyes again, Concubine Zhen didn't want to cry, but tears still fell.
An Yu's heart softened for a while, and she took out the silk and gently wiped Concubine Zhen's tears: "I didn't expect that the eldest sister and the saint husband and wife for many years would also be ...... by the saint."
Concubine Zhen gently pushed away An Yu's hand and glanced at the palace people in the warm pavilion opposite: "These palace people, if they can come to this house, An Cong also has made great efforts." ”
An Yu glanced back at the lifeless palace people, reached out and grabbed Concubine Zhen's hand, and said in a low voice: "Is the emperor determined to let his father and eldest brother die?" ”
Concubine Zhen raised her eyes, looked at An Yu and was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Even you can see it." ”
An Yu opened her mouth, but did not speak.
Concubine Zhen sighed and said in a low voice: "Our grandmother, Lord Yanning, is a person who grew up watching the saint, so she can naturally think of this layer, but thinking about it does not mean that she can accept it, although it is said that the king's order cannot be violated, but grandmother is also a person who has seen the world, and she will inevitably think of using her connections in the palace to ask the queen mother, but what is this thought in the eyes of the saint?" ”
An Yu nodded: "So, the Holy Lord arrested all these palace people." ”
Concubine Zhen smiled: "Yes, the Holy One just wants to tell everyone that no matter how small a thing is, you must abide by the principle that the emperor's order cannot be violated." ”
An Yu said slowly: "Being able to catch so many people, the second brother naturally provided a lot of information to the emperor. ”
Concubine Zhen nodded, and tears fell out again: "Even though I have a grudge in my heart, I didn't think about disobeying him, he even defended me." ”
An Yu knew who he was in Concubine Zhen's mouth, and she reached out and hugged Concubine Zhen.
Concubine Zhen also hugged An Yu and cried silently.
An Yu frowned, looked at the closed room, and said in Concubine Zhen's ear: "Big sister, grandmother will let the second brother intercede with the saint, although the death of the eldest brother will be infinitely beneficial to the second brother." However, there are some words that still have to be brought to the second brother, if the saint remembers that the second brother is a person who does not hesitate to give up his father's and brother's lives for the title, he will think that he is unfaithful and unjust, and one day the holy favor will no longer be the scourge of killing the head. ”
Concubine Zhen stopped crying, raised her head and pushed An Yu away slightly, holding her shoulders with both hands: "You...... You're right, but how do we get the word out? ”
An Yu turned around and walked out of the inner room to the door, looking at the silhouette of the guards outside the door, and then turning to look at the display in the room, she paced to the front of the candlestick.
Bishuang, who had been silent, was a little anxious, and hurriedly said to Concubine Zhen: "Niangniang! Girl, she ......."
Concubine Zhen turned her head to look at An Yu, and hurriedly walked over and grabbed her: "You are crazy, if no one cares, you and I will die today." ”
An Yu turned her head to look at her: "But the eldest sister-in-law is still waiting for the eldest brother to come home, no matter what the grandfather says, it is also our father...... In the palace - no fire, fire is a big deal. ”
Concubine Zhen slowly let go of An Fei's hand.
An Yu gritted her teeth and frowned - sister-in-law, thank you for protecting me and loving me in the house, today An Yu used her life to make a bet, which can be regarded as repaying you for your kindness to An Yu.
She reached out and knocked over the candlestick, and the candlestick fell, and the flames began to erode the hanging curtain, and the tongue of fire gradually grew larger, reflecting An Yu's face.
The palace people who were originally waiting for death were lifeless when they saw the fire, and they all shouted in panic for a while.
At this time, An Cong was already waiting for a stick of incense outside the Renhe Palace, and the official book that was originally in the hall had not yet come out.
At the gate of Renhe Palace, there was another person, it was Mu Jinlin, the fifth prince.
Mu Jinlin entered the courtyard and looked An Cong up and down, with a sense of approval in his eyes: "Young talent, the official worships the cabinet, presumably this is An Cong, the second brother of the Fuguo family, right?" ”
An Cong turned his head and smiled: "Then this imposing young prince must be Mu Jinlin, the Fifth Highness who has the most sacred heart?" ”
Mu Jinlin nodded and smiled: "Indeed, I don't know why Lord An came here today?" ”
An Cong turned his head to look at the door of the Renhe Hall and blinked: "The things below are nothing more than some small things that cannot be seen, and the affairs of the Fifth Highness must be very urgent." ”
didn't ask An Cong what he was going to do, Mu Jinlin was naturally not in such a good mood to tell An Cong what he was going to do, so he smiled and didn't speak.
Who knew that Mu Jinlin's eyes glanced away and looked away, but he saw black smoke rising faintly in the direction of the east of the harem.
Mu Jinlin frowned: "Not good! ”
Hearing this, An Cong raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look, and also saw black smoke rising from the sky: "It seems that there is a fire." ”
Mu Jinlin bowed: "Indeed, that direction is not too far from the Imperial Grandmother's Funing Palace, I don't worry, go and see it first, Lord An, farewell." ”
An Cong clenched his fists: "The Fifth Highness has such filial piety, don't delay." ”
Mu Jinlin didn't say anything more, only turned around and strode away.
Namu Jinlin followed the black smoke all the way, and the guards and eunuchs were hurriedly carrying water and soil to the burning palace.
went straight to the palace room, and found that the fire was not big, but there were An Yu and Concubine Zhen in the courtyard, and there were some eunuchs guarding them next to them, and An Yu seemed to be trying to break through the guards of those eunuchs.
Mu Jinlin was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward: "Why don't you put out the fire?" Standing here? ”
Before the eunuchs could speak, An Yu pushed away the eunuchs who were blocking in front of her, and when she ran to Mu Jinlin's side, she grabbed Mu Jinlin's hand and fell to the ground.
An Yu lay on the ground, Mu Jinlin knelt on the ground, and several eunuchs next to him looked at him and shouted: "Bold, how dare you be so rude to the Fifth Highness!" ”
Mu Jinlin looked at An Yu suspiciously, An Yu raised her eyes, her eyes were burning.
Seeing the anxious pleading in An Yu's eyes, Mu Jinlin raised his hand and smiled with the eunuchs: "It's okay, I'm fine." ”
After speaking, Mu Jinlin raised his hand to help An Yu up, only to hear An Yu whisper to him: "Fifth Highness, the second brother is confused for a while, but brothers, friends, brothers ”
Mu Jinlin bowed his head and said: "I don't understand these headless words, can An Cong understand?" ”
An Yu nodded hurriedly.
A eunuch reached out and dragged An Yu away, but An Yu broke free of the eunuch's hand, and she knelt on the ground and hugged Mu Jinlin's legs.
Mu Jinlin was stunned and looked at An Yu in shock.
An Yu looked up at him: "Fifth Highness, Fifth Highness, save me!" It was dark and dark in that room, and my eldest sister and I were loyal to the emperor, why did we do this to us, why! ”
As she spoke, the eunuch tugged at her.
However, the eunuch still had to take into account whether Mu Jinlin would be injured by mistake, so he always left room and failed to tear An Yu away.
Mu Jinlin frowned, nodded and said, "You get up, I will intercede for my father." ”
After saying this, An Yu let go of Mu Jinlin's leg and let the eunuch pull her aside.
The eunuchs hurriedly smiled and said: "Fifth Highness, there is nothing big here, the fire will be extinguished in a while, why don't Your Highness stay in a comfortable place, lest this crazy girl come to pester Your Highness again." ”
Mu Jinlin raised his eyebrows, glanced at An Yu, nodded and turned around.
Concubine Zhen looked at An Yu worriedly: "Is your method feasible?" In case of the Fifth Highness, he ......"
An Yu closed her eyes and sighed: "Do your best, listen to the destiny of heaven." ”
It's not her who is going to die, she can take such a big risk to find a way for Fuguo Gong and An Jue, it should already be benevolent and righteous.
After the five princes left from the side of the burning palace, they walked in the direction of the Ninwa Hall.
When he arrived at the temple of benevolence, Na An Cong was still standing in the courtyard waiting for the summons.
Mu Jinlin glanced at An Cong, An Cong turned his head and smiled: "It seems that the situation over there is not very important. ”
He nodded, looking at An Cong who was thinking about whether to tell him An Yu's words, but saw the door in the main hall open, and the official Shangshu walked out of it.
Mu Jinlin frowned, and for a moment he remembered An Yu's eyes full of anxiety, thinking that An Yu might be asking for help because of his father and brother's affairs, he reached out and grabbed An Cong, who was about to enter the hall.
An Cong turned his head to look at Mu Jinlin, with a puzzled expression.
Mu Jinlin sighed: "Someone wants me to tell you, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, brothers, friends and brothers." ”
After An Cong heard this, he lowered his head and smiled, shook his head and said, "The person who said this to you is inevitably too underestimated by me." ”
Mu Jinlin was stunned for a moment and let go of An Cong's hand: "What? ”
An Cong shook his head, hugged his fists and smiled: "But thank you for the message from Your Highness Five." ”
After speaking, An Cong turned around and walked into the hall.
On that day, An Cong not only asked the emperor to send troops to help the Duke of Fuguo as soon as possible in the Renhe Palace, but also gave the emperor a candidate - Song You, Song You provoked the emperor a few days ago, and was reprimanded by the emperor to reflect at home, it is better to take this opportunity to send to exterminate the mountain bandits, and to make meritorious service to atone for his crimes.
The emperor happily agreed, praising An Cong for his shrewdness and wisdom, and his reputation moved the capital.
However, no one knows how An Cong in the Renhe Palace spoke up to the emperor's anger and pressure.
That night, Concubine Zhen and An Yu were released back to their respective palaces, but those palace people were given wine by the emperor one by one.
On the second day, An Wan, who had just gotten married, followed her husband into the palace to meet the queen and concubine, and overnight, she regained her peace.
Knowing that An Wan was going to enter the palace, An Yu asked people to send a message to the queen in Fengyi Palace that she would come back in the afternoon, so that she could avoid meeting An Wan, who knew that she avoided Fengyi Palace, but she couldn't avoid the invitation of Yichun Palace.
At that time, An Yu took some centella asiatica from the pharmacy of the Tai Hospital, and was about to go to the pharmacy hall to make a new one, but who knew that Xiyan took the two palace maids to the Tai Hospital and asked An Yu to go to the Yichun Palace to talk.
Because of her face, An Yu went with Xiyan.
As soon as I entered the palace gate of Yichun Palace, I saw An Wan with all her hair up.
An Wan walked over to her, and said with a smile: "The third sister has good skills, and she is dominant. ”
An Yu smiled and returned the salute: "The fourth sister is polite, the fourth sister has just married a woman, her face is full of red light, and her face is happy. ”
An Wan stepped forward and smiled with An Yu: "Third sister, do you want to meet my husband?" ”
