Chapter 10. Wonderful sounds

"Who is this?" Concubine Duan saw An Lingrong and looked at Jixiang with some doubts.

Ji Xiang hurriedly replied: "Niangniang, this is the peace of Qixiang Palace. ”

Qixiang Palace, Li Concubine, Concubine Hua's people.

Concubine Duan's eyes were covered with indifference: "I don't know what Anchang is doing in Guibu Lindi?" ”

An Lingrong was not annoyed, and said slowly: "It's also a little cold in the Niangniang Palace, and I'm not in good health, so cold, it's hard to endure in winter." She handed the Tang Pozi who was holding in her arms into Concubine Duan's arms, and then said, "When the concubine first entered the palace, it was not the original intention to be taken under the command of Concubine Hua, and the grievances between Niangniang and Concubine Hua, the concubine also heard of it, but the concubine was foolish, and it was not Niangniang's fault." ”

There was a long-lost warmth from her fingertips, and Concubine Duan sighed for a long time: "Sit down, the Yanqing Hall of this palace has not been here for many years, and you have to forget how to treat this palace." auspicious, let's go make a cup of tea. ”

Ji Xiang saw that Concubine Duan's face eased, and a little smile appeared on her face, and she leaned down to pour tea.

"You entered the palace in the draft? This is the emperor's first draft after ascending the throne. Concubine Duan raised a shallow smile, "I don't know if the emperor is in good health recently?" ”

"Your Majesty, everything is fine." An Lingrong gossiped with her like a family chatter, "There are a lot of newcomers this time, and now Shen Guiren is the most favored, followed by Fucha nobles." ”

"It's good that the emperor has another beautiful woman." Concubine Duan's eyes flashed, and she smiled shallowly, "What about you?" ”

"The concubine has been fortunate enough to sleep a few times, but because of her weak body, her grace has gradually faded recently." An Lingrong said, "However, because of Concubine Hua's protection, no one dares to despise concubines." ”

Concubine Duan blinked and smiled suddenly: "Cao Qinmo is so smart, I didn't see that you were a fox cub in a lamb's skin." ”

An Lingrong showed a sly smile.

On the surface, it seems that An Lingrong surrendered to Concubine Hua and was restrained everywhere, but on the contrary, An Lingrong was also a fox and a tiger, using the name of Concubine Hua to protect himself. Naturally, over time, Cao Guiren will definitely be able to see this layer, so today An Lingrong went to visit her today, and it was an accident to save Wen Yi, but with this layer, Cao Guiren would not be able to poke her in front of Concubine Hua.

At least, An Lingrong can use this umbrella to stabilize for more than half a year.

As he spoke, Cardamom came.

"The slave and maid took a closer look, and no one saw the slave and maid come out." Cardamom whispered to An Lingrong for credit.

"Okay, go back and let Dill make you red bean cake to eat." An Lingrong smiled dotingly, turned to open the food box, and let Jixiang take it down to set the meal, "Niangniang, this maid of the concubine knows a little about medicine, it is better to let her show the pulse to the mother." ”

Duanfei glanced at the young cardamom suspiciously, but it was not easy to save face, so she asked Cardamom to take the pulse.

When it comes to practicing medicine, Cardamom is like a different person, without the appearance of a daily smile, calm and serious.

Such a change surprised Concubine Duan.

After a long time, Cardamom withdrew her hand and said: "Concubine Duan's mother took too much safflower in her early years to hurt her roots, and the cold in her body was stagnant, so she could only be slowly conditioned, and she couldn't be cured." ”

Concubine Duan was surprised that Cardamom was so good at a young age, and on the other hand, she was sad that her body was really bad.

"Concubine Duan's joint pain has been going on for days, and the slave can use needles to relieve it." Cardamom said again.

An Lingrong looked at Concubine Duan, and Concubine Duan also hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly.

The cardamom needle is fast and steady, and the auspicious meal comes in to call people, and the needle application is over.

After some movements, Concubine Duan only felt that her body was a lot more relaxed, she noted An Lingrong's goodness, and she had to persuade her to score three points: "You maid has superb medical skills, I'm afraid that the doctors in the hospital are half as difficult as her, you have to hide it carefully in the future, don't let people find out." Otherwise, you're in big trouble. ”

An Lingrong responded with a smile: "If the mother eats, the concubine will not bother." So he took the cardamom and departed.

Concubine Duan looked at her back and did not withdraw her gaze until she disappeared at the gate of the palace.

"Niangniang, but what's wrong with An Changzai?" Ji Xiang looked at Concubine Duan uneasily, "Will she go back and talk to Concubine Hua?" ”

"She won't." Concubine Duan shook her head, looked at the rare steaming meal in front of her, and took a bite, "Her eyes are clear and bright, not a ghost tricker, for me, I'm afraid it's just a whimsical kindness." ”

Concubine Duan knew what her current situation was, and it was rare to have someone willing to give her alms.

"But even if it's a charity, this palace has also recorded this kindness." Concubine Duan touched the soup woman who was placed on her knee, and then touched her knee, which was no longer in pain, and her face was pale.

Although Yanqing Hall is only separated from Qixiang Palace by a wall, the back door was not opened, and An Lingrong still went around a big circle before returning to Qixiang Palace.

Concubine Li seemed to have heard about Concubine Hua's reward, and summoned An Lingrong to speak at night, and rewarded a lot.

In the first month, the harem was peaceful, but within two days, something rare happened in the palace, breaking this tranquility.

On this day, Cao Guiren came to talk to An Lingrong, and was talking about it: "Sister knows, a few days ago, the emperor sealed a palace maid who leaned on the plum garden as an official woman, and yesterday she agreed to it, and she was very favored!" ”

An Lingrong's eyes blinked slightly: "This Yu promise is in the limelight, I don't think it's hard to know." I heard that she can also sing Kunqu Opera? ”

"Yes, I sang a song in front of my mother a while ago, and I sang it really well." Cao Guiren meant something, "It's you, sister, who was born with a good voice, why don't you learn two tunes, so you can please the emperor and the mother." These days, Niangniang is a lot colder to her sister. ”

An Lingrong covered his lips and coughed lightly twice: "It turned out that I was useless, and on the first day of junior high school, I felt that my body was better, so I ran to pay tribute to my mother, but unexpectedly, the cold wind blew, and the cough was committed again." She sighed lightly, "I've been like this since I was a child, where do I have time to learn what to sing Kunqu Opera." ”

still sings to please her heart, is she really a singer?

An Lingrong remembered her previous life, and the resentment that had been silent for a long time suddenly came to her heart, but the next moment she calmed down, and the secret path really couldn't be underestimated Cao Qinmo, and the slightest negligence almost caught her way.

Seeing that An Lingrong was not fooled, Cao Guiren did not insist on the end, and only smiled: "Speaking of the first salute, my sister has not thanked my sister yet." That day, the doctor came to see it, and said that if it was later, I was afraid that there would be a risk of suffocation, and my sister and I were still scared until now, and there was nothing good to thank you. ”

"But with a lot of effort, my sister doesn't have to take it to heart." An Lingrong accepted the salute and smiled.

Zhuluo is a trivial matter, Cao Guiren's real thank you An Lingrong has already received it, that words, Cao Guiren is just another temptation, since she already has the answer, she naturally knows what An Lingrong wants.

Conversations between smart people often don't need to be too clear.

Seeing off Cao Guiren, An Lingrong pondered what Yu had promised.

In her previous life, Yu Yinger impersonated the favor of Zhen Huan in Yimei Garden, and was arrogant in the palace for a while, and later was rejected by the emperor because she offended Zhen Huan, and finally died tragically in the cold palace.

However, it seems that Concubine Hua likes her a lot.

An Lingrong thought for a while.

Forget it, it's better not to worry too much, anyway, Yu promised that sooner or later he would be taken care of, and she couldn't interfere.

It was the Lantern Festival, and Concubine Hua took Yu to meet the Queen Mother, and the emperor happened to come in.

"This is the emperor's recent promise to Xinna, and if he can be appreciated by Concubine Hua, he can be regarded as capable." The Queen Mother leaned on the couch with a pale face, "I heard that the emperor calls you to sing songs every day, why don't you come to a song now, and let the mourning family listen to it." ”

"The Queen Mother ordered you, and she didn't pick a good one to sing." Concubine Hua glared at Yu Yu and said.

The emperor was a little sneering.

The Queen Mother is ordering him, she has been promoted to a palace maid for no reason, and she has been sealed for two levels in a row, which is too eye-catching.

"It's not the East Pavilion feast to open the Beihai bottle, and it's not the chicken millet to talk about friendship, inviting the old people, why the clouds and the sky...... If it is not graceful and prestigious, it will be difficult to pray for the royal color, and it has entered the thick virtue and high affection, and the high affection admires the gentry......"

Yu Yu immediately stood up and sang, and the Queen Mother didn't stop, so she sang the song "Eternal Reunion" to the end.

At the end of the song, the Queen Mother took a sip of tea casually: "Singing is okay." ”

Those present, except for Yu Promise, all heard the meaning of the Queen Mother's words.

Singing is okay, nothing else.

Concubine Hua couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and followed the Queen Mother's words and said: "In this case, the Queen Mother might as well give her the number one, which can be regarded as a reward for her." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the emperor: "The number has to be given by the emperor, so it looks solemn." ”

The emperor pondered for a moment: "In this case, why don't you call Yu Yu 'Miaoyin Lady', what does the emperor think?" ”

The Queen Mother nodded slightly, then looked at Yu and promised: "Since the emperor has given you a name, you must abide by the rules in the future, and don't let down the emperor's favor to you." ”

Yu promised to be so happy that his eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly thanked him.

Concubine Hua looked at her from the side, her eyes showing disdain.

Everyone thinks that the title of "Miaoyin Lady" is a symbol of the emperor's grace, but in fact, this is the title given by the queen mother to the emperor, and it has a double identity meaning.

Since ancient times, only courtesans will be titled for singing, but because this title is from the royal family, it can be regarded as a favor, Yu promised not to know, and most people in the harem did not know, but Concubine Hua knew it, and the queen also knew.

The next day, the emperor talked to the queen about this, and the queen pursed her lips and smiled: "It deserves it." ”

When the emperor heard this, he shook the string of jade beads with no interest, and the heat he promised to Yu slowly cooled down.

"Your Majesty, it's time to turn over the cards." The queen reminded that the eunuch in the worship room hurriedly stepped forward.

The emperor swept a row of green cards with a cold face, his eyes suddenly stopped in the corner, remembering the soft-spoken nursery rhyme that night, suddenly his heartstrings moved, and he raised his hand to flip it.

The queen looked at the flipped brand, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

An Lingrong was a little stunned to send away the eunuch who announced the decree, and was pulled by Dill to bathe and wash, until his body was immersed in warm water, and he did not react.

"What's wrong with the little master?" Dill noticed An Lingrong's strange appearance, was a little worried, and asked quietly, "Today, do you still need to use that fragrance?" Although An Lingrong hadn't told her about Xianglu, dill could guess some of it.

An Lingrong's eyes flickered, and he hummed softly, and then closed his eyes.

This day in her previous life was also the day she went to bed, and it was the most humiliating day after she entered the palace. She was sent to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and she was sent out of the Heart Cultivation Hall as it was......

However, it was already a matter of the previous life.

An Lingrong raised his hand and clenched his fist weakly, as if he was holding something tightly in his hand.

It's the familiar Minghuang again, but the emperor hasn't come yet, and An Lingrong is lying alone on the bed.

She looked at the curtains, her thoughts were full of thoughts, and she remembered that Cardamom said this morning that Yu promised to be given the name Miaoyin Lady, and somehow became interested.

Anyway, the emperor hasn't come yet.

An Ling Rongwu hummed softly: "The hills overlap and the gold is extinguished, and the temples and clouds want to be fragrant and snowy." Lazy to draw moth eyebrows, late to make up and groom.

Before and after the flowers, the flowers reflect each other. New embroidered robes, double golden partridges ......"

There is no Yu to agree to the lofty tone, but this voice is like a beautiful jade returning to the basics, and there is another transparent and clear, which is even more wonderful.

The emperor, who was standing not far away, moved slightly, and couldn't help but compare Yu An and the two in his heart, only to feel that An Lingrong's singing voice was better.

And, sure enough, it's very similar to Chunyuan.

"I didn't know that Rong'er sang so beautifully." The emperor stepped forward slowly, and said with a smile, "If I had known, what else I would have listened to Kunqu Opera, I would have summoned you every day, and the word Miaoyin should be given to you." ”

An Lingrong was startled, then reacted, and said coquettishly: "The emperor has already given Yu a promise, so the concubines don't want it!" ”

The emperor laughed twice and turned over to bed.

Su Peisheng came out of nowhere and put down the curtain.

An Lingrong looked at the emperor timidly: "What is the emperor doing looking at his concubines like this?" ”

I hadn't heard it for a long time, but when I heard it, the emperor realized that he seemed to miss her a little.

Call me some more.

This night, the emperor had no intention of restraining his actions at all, and he couldn't stop until the sky was getting brighter.

When I woke up, where did I remember what Yu promised to what Miaoyin Niang, no matter who came, it was not as good as An Chang's voice for half a minute.

"An Chang is docile, tolerant and gentle, and specially given the number, tolerance."
