Chapter 19 The Fan Concubine
After washing, Lin Yuner buried herself in the Hu bed, the boudoir burst with refreshing bamboo fragrance, making people feel refreshed and happy, and inexplicably felt very enjoyable, Chanchan on a summer night, although she enjoyed it, she still couldn't sleep. She got up and shouted out, "Mother Tsui." ”
In a few breaths, Jade responded sullenly at the door, "Lady, what are your orders?" ”
Jade pushed open the door and walked slowly to her, "Lady, but you can't sleep because of the heat?" Ziwei and I are thinking about cooling down for the lady. ”
"No need, Mother Cui, I have something to do, please explain."
"I don't know what?"
Lin Yun'er paused and said, "When I came back today, I saw that the front yard was brightly lit. ”
"Lady, have you gone to see that old nun?" Jade was not surprised or pleased, and said very plainly.
Lin Wan'er bowed, "Why is she here?" This place is the Buddha hall of the Huang family, so she should be a member of the Huang family, so who is she? ”
Jade smiled slightly, and there were some wrinkles on her well-maintained face, and from her eyes, Lin Yun'er actually read the vicissitudes of life, yes, at this age, where is not the vicissitudes of life? Jade said, "I think back then, when Princess Junyang was not married, the old slave also met her, this woman's surname is Fan, her name is Lirong, at that time, she looked forward to the brilliance, looked back and smiled, every moment of her was charming, as if she was a fairy in the sky." ”
Fan Lirong and Fan Lixiang are a pair of twin sisters, both are street girls, when the emperor went out on patrol, he saw their beautiful appearance, and took them into the palace, His Majesty the Emperor loved them very much, not long after, the two sisters were pregnant ~ pregnant, sister Fan Lixiang gave birth to a little prince before her sister Fan Lirong, His Majesty the Emperor also because of this, she made the two of them a concubine, just because Fan Lixiang was born prematurely, coupled with rumors in the palace, the Fan sisters had an affair with their senior brother before entering the palace, and His Majesty the Emperor was suspicious, ordered the execution of her two senior brothers, but this did not relieve the doubts in his heart, and then Fan Lirong also gave birth to a princess, and His Majesty the Emperor was happy, so he did not pursue the matter.
Then, the prince and the princess grew up, and inadvertently His Majesty the Emperor heard the servants say that the prince's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat like the senior brother of the Fan sisters, and His Majesty the Emperor ordered to collect the portraits of the senior brothers, but found that they were really similar, so he ordered the Fan sisters to be sent to the cold palace. Not long after, the prince contracted the epidemic and died, and Fan's Lixiang proved her innocence and threw herself into the lotus lake in the imperial garden in the middle of the night.
His Majesty the Emperor was remorseful, and took the disheartened Fan Lirong back to the palace to re-seal her as a concubine, but things are wrong, Fan Lirong was originally bent on death, but survived for the princess, as soon as the princess and Lu got married, she asked His Majesty the Emperor to come out, of course His Majesty the Emperor was reluctant to let her go, but he couldn't bear her sadness, I heard that the Huang family had a Buddhist hall on this mountain, and His Majesty the Emperor placed her here so far.
"Alas, this Buddhist hall was built a hundred years ago, and there was an old nun when the Fan family did not cultivate here, but after the Fan family came, the old nun died in less than five years." Jade's words are all regretful, and Lin Yun'er has also seen a lot of palace fighting dramas, and the intrigues in the harem are indeed quite frightening, if she is placed in the palace fighting drama, she may not be able to survive two episodes.
In the sigh of jade, Lin Yun'er can roughly outline the image of a woman who was suspected of losing her loved ones by her lover and had no choice but to become a nun, this story is faintly full of sadness and helplessness, and a woman who is tortured and wants to escape is vividly described, which makes her have a little sympathy. She also had children, and now her children may be by her father's side, or by her ex-husband's side, no matter what the previous generations have done to hurt each other, the children are always innocent, they haven't had time to have a good time in this world, which is unfair to them.
It's a pity that no one has ever thought of this layer at all, whether it is now or in her own world, before the child is sensible, they all think that the child is just their accessory, not an independent individual, thinking of this, Lin Yun'er also sighed.
"Lady, the Fan concubine is not very good now, you better not provoke it." After Jade finished speaking, she retired.
The temperament is not very good, this word has appeared in front of her three times, a woman who is disheartened with Hongchen, it makes sense to show disgust when she sees ordinary people, but, from another point of view, is this too deliberate? Lin Yun'er got up from the bed, lay down on her couch, and said in her heart, she will definitely meet the dispassionate Fan Guifei tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Lin Yun'er came to the front yard wearing the morning glow, and as she expected, Fan Guifei was incense for the Bodhisattva in the Buddha hall, and the air was full of good-smelling incense. Looking at her back, she looks like a woman in her early fifties, bent over her waist, afraid that she has not absorbed any nutrients, but the movements in her hands are very neat, as if she often does.
At this time, Fan Guifei seemed to feel that someone was snooping, so she suddenly turned around, and a pale face appeared in Lin Yun'er's gaze, which really startled her, only to see that the person's pair of willow eyebrows were slender to the temples, Gu Pan's eyes were not affected by the years at all, and they were still as bright as black pearls, and a melon seed face carried a small nose and a cherry mouth, looking at her face, she looked like a young woman over forty years old, not a woman of the same age as Lin Yun'er's grandmother.
Lin Yun'er froze in place when she looked back at her like this, and she didn't forget what she was going to say hello to her.
Fan Guifei glanced at her, but she didn't give her a cold face as Lin Yun'er imagined, but waved her hand, "Come here." ”
From her voice, Lin Wan'er could hear her old age, but she still involuntarily followed her instructions to her side.
She put down the things in her hand and looked Lin Yun'er up and down carefully, "You are the little girl of the Huang family?" ”
Lin Yun'er was a little at a loss, and hurriedly owed a debt, and said, "Back to the seniors, the little girl is Zishan, the eldest lady of the Huang family." ”
"Senpai?" She sneered and couldn't help but sigh, "Indeed, in the world, the poor nuns are of a higher rank than you. Poor Nifa Wisdom,"
Lin Yun'er owes herself, "Master Linghui." ”
She bowed her head slightly, and then asked, "How old is this year?" ”
"Fourteen." Lin Yun'er lowered her head slightly, but in front of her was the concubine of the previous dynasty and the concubine of the current dynasty, it was not wrong to be obedient.
"If it's really the Huang family, Huang Liang is a blessing." Linghui looked at her and smiled gently, which made Lin Yun'er a little confused, why did she see Fan Guifei and Jade Ziwei describe the same two people? At first, Huang Yu just asked her to say hello. is both a royal concubine and now a concubine, why has she practiced in the Huang family's Buddhist hall for so many years? The first emperor wouldn't not know that this was the Huang family's mountain, could it be that it was deliberate? The first emperor placed Fan Guifei in the sixth year of Xianguan, and his grandfather married his grandmother Princess Junyang in the same year, and the following year, the official worshiped Shangshu and shot the left servant, how could there be such a coincidence?
Thinking about it like this, Lin Yun'er's heart chuckled, and the shadow of a political struggle appeared in her mind, she didn't understand politics, but after so many years of interest in psychological portraits, she couldn't help but develop a temperament to think more, and she could faintly smell that this Linghui master was an important pawn in the original political struggle. Now, it can be regarded as an outcast. can be completely separated from a political struggle, thinking that her ability is not ordinary, thinking of this, Lin Yun'er's heart suddenly seems to have stopped beating, she doesn't like scheming and won't play, in case she is trapped, then what is the difference between her and her previous self?
Linghui sneered and laughed, "You girl, you don't need to care about my status as a layman, now I am just a monk who has fallen into the world." ”
"Yes, Master Linghui." Lin Yun'er still replied obediently.
"Okay, you can go back now, if you are fine, just come and see me often." Linghui said it gently, so he picked up the things he had just put down and walked to the inner hall, not giving Lin Yun'er a chance to refuse.
At this time, it seems that this Linghui master is not as rumored, for Lin Yun'er, he is more like a grandmother, kind and kind. Just, why?
On the second day, Linghui called Lin Yuner to her meditation room, and Lin Yuner obediently took off her sandals and knelt on the futon specially prepared for her by Linghui.
I have to say that Linghui's maintenance is very well done, she was originally a grandmother-like age, and it looks like she can't see her age clearly except for the slight wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, she asked with a kind smile. "Can you drink tea?"
Tea? It seems that people in this era like to drink tea, whether it is Shen Langjun or Huang Yu, they all like to make tea. Lin Yun'er smiled slightly, "The little girl is not thirsty. ”
"Hehe", Linghui chuckled a few times, "Indeed, no matter how expensive the tea is, the entrance is just a thirst-quenching thing." As she spoke, the movements in her hands did not stop, and she had always flowed smoothly, and she hurriedly brewed two glasses. A cup of hot water was placed on the small table in front of Lin Yun'er.
The tea faintly wafted out of the faint fragrance, in an instant, refreshing, this tea is different from yesterday's Shen Yu, this tea also faintly reveals a noble atmosphere, she couldn't help but be surprised, why did she smell these things in this tea?
"Coarse tea, drink." Linghui smiled.
Lin Yun'er picked up the cup in front of her and snorted it gently, there was a fragrance of jasmine, and a hint of pine needles, which was really good.
"The lady and the poor nun live next to each other, and we have to support each other in the future, if the lady doesn't understand anything, you can ask questions." Before Lin Yun'er put down the cup in her hand, she said, "Presumably, the lady also has questions in her heart, the poor nun was not from the Huang family before she left home, why is she in the Huang family's Buddhist hall." As she spoke, she looked at Lin Yun'er in order to observe Lin Yun'er's reaction.
