Chapter 780: Visiting Ling'er
Cang Rinchen entered the Fengqi Palace, and asked Ander to put the fold on the desk, while he sat down with a robe and began to look at it.
Xia Yinhuan saw him like this, he was free, and it was natural to go anywhere, she was about to open the curtain and enter the inner hall, but glanced at him, and it happened that Cang Linchen also looked up at her.
Looking at each other, Xia Yinhuan quickly looked away, and her slender hand opened the bead curtain of colorful glass and walked into the inner hall.
Cang Linchen doesn't care about her, he still has a lot of important things to deal with, the country's heavy responsibilities are put in the first place, Xia Yinhuan has now returned to his side, his wish has been satisfied, and everything is worry-free.
Lunch was shared by the two of them, as if they had gone back in time, and the two of them spent the month that had been between them.
That night, Wushan**, Xia Yinhuan was struggling to escape from his arms, but listening to his heavy gasps, she kept calling her name.
Her body slowly softened, listening to the heartfelt voice and emotions, she no longer resisted, and catered to him until she gradually fell asleep.
Wake up, Cang Linchen has long been gone, the time of the early dynasty has always been very early, looking at the empty room, the candles have burned out, and a little light like a bean flickering on the candlestick of the crane, she couldn't help but be distracted, and after a long time she put down her feet and put on her shirt, and called Gong E to serve and groom.
She didn't ask about Concubine Xiang's situation again, and she didn't know what kind of life she should live after she picked up a life, but she heard that Ling'er had been sentenced to be executed after the year.
Concubine Xiang naturally had palpitations, she had already woken up early in the morning, sitting in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the deep dark blue under the corners of her eyes in the mirror, she had not had a good night's sleep last night.
Nightmares tormented her body and mind over and over again, and she couldn't live in peace, in her dreams she always dreamed that Xia Yinhuan stabbed her chest with a dagger, and every time she woke up, she only saw the bright lights in the room.
She vaguely remembered that day, not long after she drank that glass, she felt that she couldn't breathe, her heart beat faster, and she became confused in an instant.
That sense of anxiety and panic lingered in her heart, and she thought that if she hadn't drunk less, she would have lost her life that day, but fortunately, Lord Yama would not accept her.
"Mother, the slave maid brought you face wash." At this time, there was a knock at the door, and the sound was a little childish.
"Come in." Concubine Xiang said a word, she didn't want to look at it more, after Ling'er was arrested, waiting beside her was a girl named Yanling, with a milky tone, it was not very comfortable to listen to.
Yan Ling got the permission of Concubine Xiang and gently pushed the door open, it was already bright and the sun was projecting into the hall, elongating her figure.
Yan Ling approached slowly with a wooden basin, and didn't dare to look up, so he handed her the washing water. Ever since something like that happened in Fengle Palace, the people of Fengle Palace were terrified and deeply afraid of being implicated.
No one expected that Ling'er, who had always been the most important in Concubine Xiang, was actually a murderer, bent on killing Concubine Xiang and framing Yan'er.
Everyone never expected that the person who had been in contact with them for two days in Fengle Palace, and the person who ate and slept with them was actually the current queen Xia Yinhuan.
The matter spread, saying that Concubine Xiang and the queen had a good relationship, and Ling'er was afraid that Concubine Xiang would no longer reuse her after she became friendly with the queen, so she poisoned Concubine Xiang, and simply blamed Xia Yinhuan with the idea of catching them all, trying to 'bring her to justice' before the queen's identity was revealed.
Every time the palace maids talk about each other, they all sigh that Ling'er is really a vicious person, even the queen dares to calculate, and his master dares to poison, and now he is imprisoned Zong Zhengsi is also self-reaping.
Concubine Xiang didn't say anything, she personally convicted Ling'er of the crime, if she didn't treat Ling'er as a prisoner, then how could she still be qualified to live in Fengle Palace now, I'm afraid that the person who is now in the sect is herself.
Stretching out a slender jade-like soft wattle, she put it in the gentle water, stirring and stirring, and with the sound of water, she held the water and hit her face to make herself sober.
After washing her face, she took the cloth in Yan Ling's hand and dried her face, she casually stuffed the cloth back into Yan Ling's hand, her eyebrows and eyes drooped, and her voice was obviously a little weak: "Go down!" ”
"Niangniang, but you're still worried about Ling'er?" Yan Ling took a half step back with the water basin and asked with some concern.
She was arranged to serve Concubine Xiang, knowing that Concubine Xiang was a victim, and she had always been very good to Ling'er, who would have expected Ling'er to kill the master, she must have felt uncomfortable.
"What do you know!" Concubine Xiang raised her eyebrows and her eyes were full of coldness, she was now in an extremely irritable mood, she wanted to kill someone, and it was not pleasing to anyone, at this time, she stared at Yanling and wanted to break her body into thousands of pieces, and scolded in a calm tone: "It's better not to ask more about things that shouldn't be asked, otherwise your life will be lost!" ”
No one dares to believe it now, especially after knowing that Liuli is the person arranged by Cang Linchen, and now she has become Xia Yinhuan's personal maid.
The grass and trees are all soldiers, she is afraid that there are others in this Fengle Palace, maybe Cang Rinchen has arranged more than one eyeliner in the Fengle Palace, maybe Yanling is a pawn of Cang Rinchen again?
She worries too much, she is too scared, Ling'er is a palace lady who advises her wholeheartedly, and now she is no longer by her side, she doesn't know who to trust and who to rely on in this matter.
"Yes, the slave knows it's wrong." Yan Ling listened to her scolding, and hurriedly buried his head, his whole little face was flushed, and he slowly retreated as he spoke.
She didn't know Concubine Xiang's situation at this time, and she didn't know that she had hit the muzzle of the gun, so she was quite aggrieved but she could only admit it, after all, Concubine Xiang was the master.
"Wait." Seeing her retreat to the threshold, Concubine Xiang suddenly called her again, and said: Go and prepare some delicious food and drink, and a carriage, the palace is going to see Ling'er. ”
She was a little worried that Ling'er would confess her, and even more worried that Ling'er would really be executed, Ling'er was imprisoned for their plan, and she was not a hard-hearted person.
Ling'er treats her wholeheartedly, she naturally knows, and Ling'er also occupies a certain position in her heart, after all, she was a concubine for the first time, and it was Ling'er who recommended herself to do her best.
"Yes." Although Yan Ling didn't understand what Concubine Xiang was going to do to see Ling'er at this time, Ling'er was the murderer who almost killed her, wasn't she?
However, she knew that her words could not affect Concubine Xiang's thoughts, but would make Concubine Xiang even more disgusted with herself, so she had to agree, secretly thinking that Concubine Xiang was really a person who values love and righteousness, and pondered that she would bring more guards when she went, for fear that Ling'er would not die and attack Concubine Xiang.
At noon, Concubine Xiang came out of Fengle Palace, and she had been poisoned, although she had taken medicine to regulate her body, she still looked blue.
Yan Ling helped her to get into the carriage carefully and instructed: "Niangniang, be careful." ”
Concubine Xiang didn't pay attention to her, and sat on the bench upright after getting into the carriage, she didn't need to report when she left the palace, Cang Rinchen would naturally know, but she was not afraid at all, because Cang Rinchen must have been clear about the reason, but he didn't punish her.
Therefore, I am afraid that even if she goes to see Ling'er, he will not do anything blatantly.
Besides, Ling'er used to be her personal palace maid, and now she is in prison, going to the prison to take a look at it can be regarded as an old love at most, so just go and take a look.
The carriage drove slowly outside the palace, slightly bumpy, but it arrived at the door of Zong Zhengji in less than half an hour, and Concubine Xiang opened the carriage and got out of the carriage.
When the guards saw that it was the carriage of the palace and the costumes of the people who came, they knew that it was not an ordinary person, so they hurriedly bowed to Concubine Xiang.
"This palace is Concubine Xiang, if you want to see Ling'er, why don't you lead the way quickly?" Concubine Xiang said in a graceful manner, with the arrogance of the past in her eyes.
The two guards looked at each other, and one of them, bearded, stood up and arched his hand in agreement.
Visiting prisoners didn't notify their adults, so they didn't report it, and rushed directly to the heavenly prison with Concubine Xiang, which was next to Zong Zhengji, a place that could be reached in a few steps.
Concubine Xiang of the Heavenly Prison has never been here, but she feels that the moment she stepped into the Heavenly Prison, a cold air came to her face, eerie, as if it was three points colder than the cold winter wind, and the straight teacher was clever.
"Yanling, you wait here." Concubine Xiang turned her head, glanced at Yanling who was following behind her, and snatched the time in her hand by the way.
Yan Ling was stunned, and saw that Concubine Xiang followed the guards down the steps without hesitation, hurriedly stepped forward, and asked with concern: "Niangniang will go by herself, what if she is not good for Niangniang?" ”
Ling'er is a person who wants to put her to death, if something happens, how can she go back and explain to Cang Rinchen, if Concubine Xiang is poisoned by Ling'er again, she will be to blame.
"Less nonsense!" Concubine Xiang turned her head with a cold face and scolded, paused and continued to walk down the steps without hesitation, whether Ling'er had harmed her or not, her heart was clearer than anyone else.
It was not her intention to blame Ling'er, but in order to protect herself, she could only sacrifice Ling'er, although she was ruthless, but she was also extremely ashamed, and she was very reluctant to give up Ling'er.
"Mother, it's here." The dungeon was underground, and it was extremely dim, except for the faint glow of the oil lamps on the wall.
The smell of rancid food, the oncoming dampness was almost breathless, and she looked at the cell door in front of her, which was as wide as a wooden cane.
The doorway was chained and had a large lock, which seemed to be so tightly closed that it would be impossible for an ordinary person to escape from it.
"Go down!" Concubine Xiang felt a sour feeling in her heart, endured it, took out her purse from her waist, took a piece of silver in the purse and handed it to the guard.
The guards took it and retreated to the side with great interest, and did not refuse the reward of the person.
"Ling'er?" Watching the guards walk away, Concubine Xiang took two steps closer, grabbed the prison door with both hands and looked inside, because the light was too dark, she could only vaguely see a vague figure sitting in the corner, unable to see clearly.
It was as if she had turned a deaf ear to her words, and she was still sitting in the corner listening to her talk, looking like a soulless shell.
"Ling'er?" Concubine Xiang looked at her so timidly, her voice was a little louder, and she called tentatively again.
At this time, the person in the prison raised his head slightly, his eyes were bright in the dark night, and she stood up at the door of the cell, but quickly lowered her eyes.
"What are you going to do?" She asked coldly, a hint of sarcasm lining the corners of her mouth.
When Xia Yinhuan framed her, she was not afraid, and she was not afraid when the guards arrested her as a prisoner who murdered Concubine Xiang.
She thought that when Concubine Xiang woke up, everything would be revealed, and Concubine Xiang would definitely protect her, but what she expected was that Concubine Xiang, whom she trusted, would actually fall into the trap and say that she was the murderer of poisoning!
