Chapter 44: The Cold War

Xia Huaijin sent the four members of the Qin family out of the palace, and the guards also retreated, Qin Ke stayed in front of Xia Huaijin for a while, and finally felt a little relieved in his heart.

"Thank you Lord Wang, if it weren't for the prince's intercession, I really don't know what would happen to Su Jin. ”

"The emperor has always been merciful, even if the king does not speak, he will still be considerate of the heart of the prince and forgive her. Xia Huaijin said with a straight face, "Now that she has been exempted from the death penalty, this heartless madness can be regarded as God's punishment for her." When you send her home this time, remember to arrange everything, so that she does not get sick and hurt again, and be careful yourself. ”

Qin Ke rarely heard Xia Huaijin's concern for her, and with such a sentence, her heart was worth it.

"The concubine will be in the palace, waiting for the day of the prince's return. ”

An Ronghua was in the palace of the court, looking at the empty palace door for a long time, risking his life, arresting the prisoner to collect evidence, and defending himself, so that the truth was revealed, but because of the sentence "lost his mind and went crazy", the prisoner was acquitted regardless of his previous affairs.

What makes An Ronghua dissatisfied is not only her own blood and sweat, how can she really regard human life as a mustard, what she cares about is her own son's mercy and forgiveness to the outside world, and the sentence of her loved one "has not yet been made a big mistake".

Xia Bingwen came out of the side hall and saw that An Ronghua was still there, he could see that she was dissatisfied with the final result, but he could also understand that she almost lost her life.

"It seems that some people are not satisfied with my ruling!" Xia Bingwen walked towards An Ronghua, she did not hesitate to look back at him with a resentful look, "What can I be dissatisfied with, you are now the emperor in power, and it is not up to you to punish and forgive whom." Anyway, it was just a little palace maid who was killed, and she was not your closest relative, and she was not successfully killed. On the other hand, the Qin family is different, Master Qin is the first prince of the dynasty, even the first emperor was taught by him, Qin Sujin's father is also a member of the dynasty, Qin Ke is your uncle and aunt, including your Uncle Jin, they all intercede for her, don't let it go!"

An Ronghua's analysis is very logical, as if it should be so, but it is clear that his tone is very unhappy and dissatisfied.

"What you say is true, it seems that I made the right decision. Xia Bingwen nodded in agreement.

"Then you still need to say, you are an emotional, indecisive emperor!" An Ronghua threw down a helpless sentence and walked away immediately.

Xia Bingwen was stunned for a moment, only to realize that An Ronghua had made the following mistakes.

"Gu girl, you stop me!"

An Ronghua didn't stop a step, and left straight without looking back.

Xia Huaijin returned to the Shattered Moon Xuan from the palace gate, and saw An Ronghua entering the hospital with his front foot.

"Valley girl. ”

Xia Huaijin started to catch up, but An Ronghua turned a deaf ear, walked directly to the room and locked the door, and let Xia Huaijin knock on the door and call, she ignored it.

"Gu Maiden, open the door to this king. ”

An Ronghua didn't pay attention to it at all and didn't say a word.

If An Ronghua is dissatisfied with Xia Bingwen, then he is very disappointed with Xia Huaijin.

Xia Huaijin chose to let An Ronghua calm down for a while, but she was locked in the room all day and didn't come out, and she didn't even make a sound.

"Lord Wang, there is no response from the Gu girl's room, what should I do with this dinner?" asked the eunuch who delivered the meal.

In the past, An Ronghua was not happy at least to make trouble, although it was unreasonable, but there was an outlet, and it would not accumulate depression. Now that this is the case, Xia Huaijin is worried, what should I do if I become the second Qin Sujin.

Xia Huaijin knocked on the door in front of An Ronghua's room, and she was silent as always.

"If you don't come out again, this king will order someone to unload this door, and let you go to bed tonight against the wind!" Xia Huaijin threatened.

An Ronghua was forced to open the door, but Xia Huaijin was faced with a hateful and angry face. Xia Huaijin personally brought the dinner in and set it up in the hall, but An Ronghua returned to the bedroom to sit indifferently.

"Come and eat. ”

Xia Huaijin called, and directly pulled An Ronghua over, although she did not resist, she sat at the dinner table like a walking corpse, her limbs did not move, and her facial features did not move, giving Xia Huaijin a feeling of eating at the same table with a dead person.

Xia Huaijin even served dishes for An Ronghua, but she still stood still.

"This king knows that you have always been strong, and you must be dissatisfied with the emperor's ruling on this matter, but there is no better verdict than this. It is easy to kill a person, and it is even easier for the emperor to sentence a person to death, but Qin Sujin has already lost his mind and gone crazy, do you want the emperor to kill a woman who can't control herself, and let her grandfather send a white-haired person to a black-haired person, can you really bear it?"

Xia Huaijin's words made An Ronghua angry, she was sitting silently, but suddenly she turned her face and overturned the dishes and chopsticks in front of her.

"Don't be angry...... Xia Huaijin was worried about An Ronghua's wound, but she directly got up and pushed him out of the room, who didn't dare to resist, "This king won't say it, don't say it!"

An Ronghua doesn't need reason, she has been controlled by reason for twenty-two years, married her husband who she didn't love, gave birth to the emperor's son, and worked hard for the country and the world for half her life.

Although he has revenge and revenge by nature, An Ronghua does not really want to kill Qin Sujin to relieve the hatred in his heart. It's just that now I have lost the power to control it, and I haven't been able to maintain it as much as I want. She had truly escaped death, but she was treated as if nothing had happened.

Xia Huaijin is sandwiched between the three parties in this matter, the emperor is the law of power, the Qin family is the responsibility of filial piety, and Gu Nu is the truth and private affairs, he must stand up, but it is undeniable that he sacrificed Gu Nu to weigh the law and filial piety.

Xia Huaijin didn't figure out the problem that Gu Nu cared about the most, she only thought that she had a strong individualism, failed to weigh the pros and cons, and took the overall situation into account.

An Ronghua sat in the hall alone to eat, she didn't need to starve herself for others.

"Xia Huaijin, you stupid old man, sooner or later you will become a pedantic old man, I don't want you anymore!

The next day, An Ronghua still needed to go to the Splendid Palace to explain the recent chaos, but he was not with Xia Huaijin.

In the face of the beauties, An Ronghua couldn't raise a good face at all, and explained: "Qin Jiali accidentally lost her mind, Gu Jiali didn't want to kill her at all, yesterday after the Holy Judgment, she has been taken home, and she will not continue to participate in the election." ”

An Ronghua didn't mention himself at all, Xia Huaijin came a moment late, and he also heard it.

Most of the beauties gloated, but Qin Sujin was the most likely to be elected, and as soon as she left, it showed that the beauties were going to be reshuffled.

"The person who performs the main piano in front of the emperor is missing, can I put it on top!"

"Which round gets you, it's me who wants to replace you, my piano skills are much better than yours. ”

"Don't be delusional, I have a candidate. An Ronghua said coldly.

"Who is it?"

Xia Huaijin was also curious about who it was, he came in from outside, and An Ronghua didn't take him seriously.

"Myself. An Ronghua looked indifferent to me.

"Yourself!"

"Do you know how to play the piano?" Xia Huaijin made An Ronghua unhappy as soon as he spoke, "I can't play the piano?"

An Ronghua immediately played a song, which made everyone present jaw-dropping, Xia Huaijin never knew that Gu Nu could play the piano, and her piano skills were good.

"But the gift in front of the emperor is the performance of the beauties to be selected, you ......" Xia Huaijin considered.

"I'm going to play to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, why don't I do it?"

An Ronghua immediately started rehearsals, and she and Gu Nanxi cooperated as partners, and they were very harmonious and hit it off.

Xia Huaijin supervised the rehearsal, but was worried that An Ronghua's overwork would not be conducive to wound healing, so he turned around and let the beauties take a break.

"Thank you. Gu Nanxi thanked, "If you hadn't proved my innocence, I might have lost my life." ”

"There is no need to say thanks, I am fair and just, and I can't see anyone bending the law for personal gain. An Ronghua said sarcastically.

"Even so, I have to thank you. Gu Nanxi said with emotion, "It's rare that there is still a person in the palace like you who knows right and wrong, and dares to speak up, I really admire you, and you can be fearless and outspoken in front of the emperor." ”

"The emperor is indecisive, although I survived, but for the murderer, she has already killed me! Just because I am only a small palace maid now, and I don't have the position of a high-ranking official in the enemy's family, I deserve to be injured and bleed, it's not worth mentioning!" An Ronghua was indignant.

"Don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry with your body. Gu Nanxi comforted, and asked again, "There is one more thing, the emperor and the father-in-law of Yuchi ......"

"I did this thing without you, the eunuch in Yuchi doesn't exist at all, he is the emperor of the dynasty. An Ronghua admitted.

Gu Nanxi never doubted that she had been so close to him, but she had never seized the opportunity.

An Ronghua returned to the Shattered Moon Xuan, Xia Huaijin took a step earlier and prepared a medicine box and waited in her room, but An Ronghua saw him turn around and leave.

"Where are you going, you have to change the dressing. ”

"Don't bother you, I'll go to the imperial infirmary to change. ”

An Ronghua went to the imperial infirmary to change the medicine, although he was an imperial doctor, he was really not as gentle and considerate as Xia Huaijin.

"So what, mourning is not uncommon!"

An Ronghua was reluctant to go back to Shattered Moon Xuan to face Xia Huaijin, and returned to Shou'an Palace aimlessly.

In Shou'an Palace, where the Queen Mother was not there, even the palace people were lazy, An Ronghua came in as an outsider and went straight to the main hall, but no one found out.

What is the meaning of people going to tea and cooling, and people going to empty buildings, just like An Ronghua's current mood, she was also the queen mother who responded to every call, but now she has ended up with life and death.

An Ronghua walked around Shou'an Palace, and finally met one or two idle palace maids sitting and chatting.

"The Queen Mother is gone, and the Shou'an Palace is like a dispersion, and I don't know when her old man will come back?"

"It's good for the Queen Mother to travel, you and I are idle, on weekdays, how strict are the rules of the palace for her old man!"

An Ronghua couldn't help but think that since she became a valley girl, it seemed that a long time had passed, so long that she had forgotten her control style as the queen mother.

"Am I very strict?" An Ronghua gave an order to the two palace maids, "Who allows you to talk about the Queen Mother behind your back, hurry up and do something!"

The palace maid didn't know who it was, she just wanted to be sent from above to inspect, so she retreated without saying a word.

An Ronghua entered the dormitory, and it was already dark, so she lit the lamp.
