The snow was white, and the biting cold wind blew in through the cracks in the gate, and An Qin wrapped herself in a ball and lay on the bed, her belly empty, and she felt hungry and cold.

The pain on her forehead made her consciousness a little dizzy, and the whole person seemed to be thrown into boiling water, and her body was hot, but the cold wind was cold, and it could be described as ice and fire blowing on her.

An Qin closed his eyes, and it didn't take long for him to hear a familiar call in the midst of the chaos.

She was stunned at first, then opened her eyes, and the splendid quilt and pink curtain that greeted her nose were sore, which was her boudoir before the door fell.

The air seemed to be filled with the smell of sandalwood, and there was a little song in her ears to put her mother to sleep, she turned her head, and saw the woman smile softly and asked, "What's wrong with Qinqin?" Can't sleep? ”

Seeing that Eniang was wearing her favorite purple begonia dress, with her head in a flying bun, her eyebrows were gentle, just like in her memory, she couldn't help but bury her head in her arms and sobbed: "Auntie, I miss you so much." ”

"It's rare to see you so coquettish, although I'm happy, but you always look calm on weekdays...... Is it your father who asked you to study medicine, is it too tired? The woman gently touched her head and sighed: "If you are too tired, you won't study, Qinqin ......"

Before she finished speaking, An Qin shook her head: "You have to learn." ”

To learn.

Gardenia, pine, agarwood, cow pith, etc. are used as balms, which have the effect of moisturizing and nourishing the skin; Boiling soup with honeysuckle, bamboo leaves, sugar cane, mulberry leaves, etc., can detoxify heat.

These are the first two prescriptions she learned when she was forced by her father.

After the family was ruined, she lingered in the Qinglou, regretting that she didn't sneak one or two things at home, and she couldn't find sustenance in her thoughts. But after surviving with her own medical skills, she thought that her father had taught her his own medical skills, and she had integrated them, which was already the best gift.

It's just that with the passage of time, their appearance began to blur, and the midnight dream never captured their figures, and now they can see it by chance, and An Qin is very satisfied.

"I'll make it." An Qin sighed lowly, E-Niang didn't know why, and only gently stroked her cheek: "Qinqin, don't do anything that makes you unhappy, E-Niang only wishes that Qinqin's life will be safe and smooth, and she will be happy." ”

"If I do something that makes A-Niang angry, will A-Niang blame me?"

The woman only sighed, and the next words An Qin couldn't hear it, she sat up straight nervously, trying to see the shape of the woman's mouth, but saw that the woman's figure began to fade, and then, the whole room began to disappear.

When she woke up again, there was still a dilapidated dormitory in front of her, and An Qin was stunned for two seconds, feeling lost.

There was a mist in front of him, An Qin raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and suddenly remembered the book he loved to read when he was a child. The heroine in it always meets the hero in a critical moment, or when she is most vulnerable, and gets his help.

She also hid in the attic of the Qinglou, holding her legs and trembling, fantasizing that someone would fall from the sky and save her from danger.

An Qin looked at the empty surroundings and suddenly smiled. She didn't know where to get the strength again, she directly lifted the futon, endured the pain on her body and put on her clothes, afraid that her fever would worsen, she turned out the clothes of the Xu Guan woman in the cabinet and covered herself.

Then he went out and walked to his house, rummaged through the cabinets and found the pills he had configured, and after taking the medicine to cure the wind and cold, he took out the balm and applied it to the bronze mirror.

She is not the heroine of the script, she can only save herself.

It's just that when he suddenly saw his face covered with blood in the mirror, Anqin was also startled. The imprint on her forehead had not yet scabbed, and blood flowed into her eyes, reflecting under the bronze mirror, making her look like a female ghost seeking her life.

In order not to leave a scar, Anqin endured the pain and applied it to herself, the burning sensation between the touches made her squint, her hair was embedded in the wound, and when she pulled it out, it was covered with flesh and skin, which made her tremble.

But she can't wash her face yet, An Qin thought about Xu Guan's woman, and pushed open the door with a complicated mood, with her strength, she couldn't drag her to a mass grave dedicated to putting corpses, but she was always going to give her a place to go.

She should have been scared.

When she saw the scene of the separation of the corpse of the Xu Guan woman before, she was also afraid, but it was very strange that An Qin looked at the Xu Guan woman who was frozen into snow now, and there was no fear in her heart except sadness.

An Qin met Xu Guan's woman three years ago.

The miscellaneous servants in the mansion of the third prince fled to death before entering the palace, but she entered the palace as a criminal slave, and the word on her forehead was always incompatible with the other people in the cold palace.

The other maidservants committed something in the palace, saying that they were sent to the cold palace because of their sinful bodies, but they always felt that Gao Anqin was a good one, and often bullied Anqin, and often insulted and ridiculed her as the Oiran of the Qinglou.

"The innocence is gone, why don't you go and curry favor with the father-in-law over there? Let her send you less work? Haha-"

It's ridiculous to say that they are both women, but they still like to mock her from the perspective of men, saying that she insults the lintel and scolds her for disgrace to women.

It was as if they were out of the mud and not stained, and Anqin was the mud underneath.

Xu Guan's woman appeared at this time, she was not from the cold palace, but she took on the work that others didn't want, so she came to the cold palace to clean the fallen leaves.

"If you have time to talk and laugh here, it's better to do your own work, they are all criminal slaves in the cold palace, where are you one level higher than others?"

She held a broom in her hand and frowned at the group of people, who immediately laughed and dispersed after seeing someone relieve Anqin.

It's just a matter of breaking the siege.

An Qin looked at her departing figure, lowered her eyes and thought, it's just her.

Coming back to her senses, An Qin looked at the ending of the Xu Guan woman, and stretched out her hand to soothe her forcibly opened eyes.

She had mixed feelings in her heart, but she only whispered: "Rest in peace." ”

——

Recently, there was turmoil in the frontier, Lin Rong sent the left general Tan Yi and the right general Su Chengye to pacify it first, but he never thought that Tan Yi, who has always been brave and good at fighting, would be defeated in this action! Lin Yi was angry, and even lowered Tan Yi to the third level, so the court has been lifeless recently, and everyone dare not come out. The officials who are better with Tan Yi are afraid of being implicated, and the officials who are good friends with Su Chengye are afraid that Su Chengye will be defeated, which will make matters worse, and they dare not speak.

Half a month later, Lin Rong rarely smiled when he saw the good news presented by Su Chengye. Then, when he finished commenting on the recital, he finally thought of what he was about to forget, and reached out and clicked on the table: "How is that handmaiden?" ”

Delu was suffocated in his heart, what kind of maid is what? How could His Majesty ask about her? He hadn't even been there! But he still forced himself to serve tea calmly on the side, and lowered his eyebrows: "The slave will go and take a look later." ”

Lin Rong raised his eyebrows, and suddenly reached out and overturned the teacup, and the tea burned directly on Delu's hand, Delu's hand trembled, but he didn't dare to say a word.

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to." Lin Rong sneered, stretched out his hand and threw a book of folds on his face, and in an instant, a red mark with a fold appeared on Delu's face, and he quickly knelt down, and his hands that had just been burned couldn't stop trembling: "Your Majesty is angry!" ”

"Take the penalty yourself." Lin Rong stood up and was about to go out when he suddenly said: "General Su has made a contribution to pacifying the rebellion in the frontier, you go to the Internal Affairs Office and send something to Concubine Yu for me." ”

"When you're done, don't come back."

Delu's heart was cold, Concubine Shu Guifei has always been at odds with Concubine Yu, Su Chengye was meritorious in the previous dynasty, and the emperor is bound to favor Concubine Yu more in the future, so this time period will transfer him over...... He lamented in his heart, it was really unpleasant.

Delu's sigh on this side did not stop, and in the Qingfang Hall on the other side, a woman wore a bun with her head hanging down, wearing an apricot yellow and bright pattern placket, looking pretty, and she looked weak because of the sadness between her eyebrows, adding a touch of style.

She rolled up the letter and placed it on the candle flame beside her, and as the candle flame licked it, the letter full of thoughts immediately turned to ashes.

The personal maid was puzzled and asked, "Why did the mother burn the letter that the general gave you?" Isn't the general's victory in the war a happy event? ”

"Hey." Concubine Yu sighed softly: "My brother is full of pride, and the palace is only afraid that he will not know how to measure, and in this way, the emperor will inevitably take care of the palace a little more in these days, and he will break the relationship between the palace and the palace." ”

Concubine Yu has always been not fighting or grabbing, she just wants to spend a peaceful life in the harem, but her personal maid feels that she is a little too indifferent, and now when she hears it, she feels that she has no ambition, and she wants to inspire a few words, when she hears someone outside report: "Niangniang, Father-in-law Delu has arrived." ”

"Come in with him." How dare she slack off the people around the emperor, tidied up her collar a little, and then got up and walked out.

Delu took the holy decree, laughed as soon as she appeared, nodded at her and said, "General Su will be triumphant soon, and the slave is here to congratulate Niangniang first." ”

Concubine Yu's right eyelid jumped, her intuition was wrong, although Delu was by the emperor's side, he was also Concubine Shugui's person. Therefore, when he faced him before, even if the holy decree was added, his reaction was not salty or light, where would he be so enthusiastic as today?

"Father-in-law Delu has a heart." Concubine Yu squatted down and said respectfully: "Concubine Su accepts the order." ”

"Give Concubine Yu a string of Su's southern pearls, a pair of Phnom Penh jade Ruyi, a hollow magpie incense burner, five glass brocades, and a plate of gold ingots.

Concubine Yu finished writing grace in a regular manner, and the eunuch who gave the gift behind her moved the things in one by one, and finally her hands were empty, and Concubine Yu didn't see that Delu wanted to go back.

She glanced at the maidservant, and the maid understood, stepped forward and stuffed the silver belt in her hand to him with a smile and said: "It's the slave and maid who are negligent, and I ask my father-in-law to forgive my sins, but my father-in-law is tired of running away today?" It's better to go back to rest early, so that the mother can rest assured. ”

"This minion will never dare to accept it."

Hearing this, Concubine Yu was amazed in her heart, this Delu was following the emperor's side, and he didn't take a lot of discounts in the open and in the dark, but now he is just giving a benefit according to the custom, how can he react so much?

Something is wrong, Concubine Yu thought so in her heart, and the next second she heard him say:

"Your Majesty let the slave follow the mother, and from then on the mother is the master of the slave, where is the reason to receive the master's reward?"

Concubine Yu: "......"

Concubine Yu was smart, and she quickly understood the emperor's purpose, but she was just using Delu to provoke the contradiction between Concubine Shu and her, and by the way, she could solve the hidden danger of Delu. She said why the entire harem knew that Delu was the person of Concubine Shugui, why was the emperor still willing to keep him by his side, it turned out that he was waiting for her here.

She closed her eyes in despair, and a rumble rumbled in her mind, as if she saw the Qingfang Palace, which could no longer be quiet.
