Chapter 35. Ylang Ylang

Since Zhen Huan danced, the emperor treated her as warmly as at the beginning, that is, Shen Meizhuang and Xia Dongchun became pregnant one after another, and it did not reduce his love for Zhen Huan at all.

And in the past few days, An Lingrong took advantage of the scorching heat to accidentally suffer from heat stroke, and because he had to take care of Xia, Dongchun and became pregnant, he and the emperor had not seen him for six or seven days.

"Little master, the nobles of Dongguan have become more and more favored recently, and the emperor even allowed her to enter and leave freely in the Qinzheng Palace." Dill took off the hairpin ring for An Lingrong and whispered, "Concubine Hua has also made a comeback, I have been so unhappy these days, I heard that she embarrassed the queen in public yesterday, and she almost couldn't get off the stage." After a pause, she said again, "Xiao Xiazi said that the emperor seems to be intent on restoring Concubine Hua's power to assist in the six palaces. ”

An Lingrong was in a good mood today, and it was rare to think of making fragrances, and when he heard the words, he stopped moving, looked up at the blue sky outside the window, and whispered softly: "Sooner or later." But, sooner or later, she also hopes that the sooner the better. Hearing the panic on the side of Yicui Palace, he asked again, "Is Xia Chang still very happy recently?" ”

"Yes, I eat six meals a day, I vomit every meal, I can't wait for everyone to know that she has severe morning sickness, but the emperor doesn't care, and I haven't come to see her for a long time." Dill chuckled and replied, "According to the little master's orders, the slave and the cardamom have avoided that one for the past few days, but they dare not touch her moldy head." ”

Xia Dongchun has become more and more rampant in the past few days, maybe pregnancy has given her confidence, or maybe she will be restless after pregnancy, facing An Lingrong and dill cardamom, her temper has gradually become bigger, she gets angry and smashes things at every turn, her appetite is not good, and her grace is declining, she is spinning like a headless fly, not knowing the exit and direction.

"Well, I'll go see her." An Lingrong put the mixed incense into the box and put it away, and got up with clean hands.

is such a big trouble, it's time to put your hands away, lest you wait until the queen makes a move and then plant it on her, but it's really full of mouth and can't say clearly.

An Lingrong walked to Yicui Hall with Dill by the hand, and was running into Xia, Dongchun smashing dishes and bowls complaining about why the emperor didn't come to see her, and couldn't help but interrupt: "Zhizhi is cautious, the emperor has been entangled in government affairs for several days, and it is the time to be busy, you really shouldn't talk like this." Frostflower, clean up for your little master, don't let outsiders see it. An Lingrong calmly walked to Xia Dongchun's side, helped her sit down, as if she didn't know anything about the past few days, and still said as affectionately as usual, "You are pregnant with a child now, the emperor is naturally worried about you, look, this hall is full of rewards can't be piled up, and he loses his temper every day, becoming more and more childish." ”

Xia Dongchun faced An Lingrong with a look of arrogance: "After my father knew that I was pregnant, he specially asked someone to send a lot of things in, and the queen mother was even more interested in rewarding a lot, and even Concubine Hua also asked people to send flowers to congratulate me." She raised her chin and motioned for An Lingrong to look at the potted plant on the table, "Father-in-law Zhou specially sent it yesterday, saying that this flower can warm a woman's body, and it is an excellent thing." ”

An Lingrong looked in the direction she was pointing, and couldn't help but shrink her pupils.

The emerald green branches and leaves, the tender yellow flowers hang down, and the slender and slightly curled petals stretch out like flowers.

This is ylang-ylang.

How could Concubine Hua send this flower to Xia, Dongchun?

But soon, Xia Dongchun himself gave the answer: "My father can value my birth, and said that the incense used during pregnancy must be cautious, so he specially went to the Treasure Pavilion to buy the incense in the goose pear tent for me to use." Sister Rong thought that she had never heard of this incense, this was the recipe made by Emperor Zhou E back then, which had been lost for a long time, and the Treasure Pavilion had found a master from nowhere before and made this incense, which was sold at a sky-high price outside. She looked at An Lingrong proudly and smiled very proudly, "Sister Rong, you come from a small family, you have never seen this spice in your life, right?" ”

An Lingrong sneered in her heart, and secretly sighed that Xia Dongchun was calculated and didn't know, but she still flattered her according to her meaning: "Yes, I haven't even heard of such a precious incense." In the end, Zhizhi is from Jiangmen, your family is extraordinary, and you are loved by your father and brother, and you have found all kinds of treasures for you everywhere to send. As he spoke, he praised again and again.

Xia Dongchun was praised a lot more relaxed, and with a wave of his hand, he gave a lot of good things to An Lingrong, and also took out a small half box of goose pear tent incense and gave it to her: "My Xia family is not short of these things, if you like it, I will give it to you." I don't like to use this incense lately, so I'll take half of it back with you, and if you feel good, I'll ask my father to buy some more and send it in. ”

An Lingrong thanked her with a smile and got up to leave.

"What is the little lord doing so well to her? How can the daughter of the little county be compared with the little master? "Maple Ye is not angry," the things next to it are just that, the fragrance is very precious, and the little master gave her so much, and the slave and maid looked distressed. ”

Xia Dongchun was in a good mood at this time: "In my most difficult time, it was Sister Rong who pulled me, no matter what her reason was, I have to thank her for her support." But I also want her to know that no matter what, she can't get past me, how can my identity make her condescending to call 'sister'? Hmph, now that I'm pregnant again, wait for a few days for my father to ask the emperor to make me a nobleman, and at that time, I will be on top and she will be below, and I will carry her in the future. She squinted her eyes and touched her belly with a smile, "If this child can get a prince, I can be on an equal footing with Concubine Qi, hmph, Concubine Hua is nothing if she doesn't have a son and a half daughter." ”

Xia Dongchun looked up and saw the pot of flowers on the table, and his mood suddenly became bad again: "Send this pot of flowers to Rong Changzai, I feel upset." She still remembered the kneeling that Concubine Hua punished her on the long street.

Frostflower hurriedly went out with the flowers.

Here, An Lingrong returned to Fanying Palace, and Dill whispered: "Xia Changzai is too arrogant, doesn't she know that the wall has ears?" It's so open-mouthed. has wronged the little master, and she has to be thoughtful for her, is it her turn to reward this incense? The small main is how much there are. ”

Xia, Dong and Chun, this person's typical victory is rampant.

When he was down, he was affectionate to An Lingrong, all kinds of flattery, and once he was pregnant, he couldn't wait to step on An Lingrong immediately, thinking that everything would be safe with a belly, and he couldn't see the situation in front of him clearly.

An Lingrong had no intention of helping Xia Dongchun take care of these things, she was thinking about Concubine Hua's setup this time.

Even though the emperor still went to the Qingliang Palace that night, even though Concubine Hua still made a comeback, but at the first birthday banquet, the news of Xia Dongchun's pregnancy pressed her Lou Dongfu, and she already held a grudge.

An Lingrong said when he handed over the incense in the goose pear tent to the shopkeeper to sell it that this incense could not be alone with ylang-ylang, but after General Xia learned that Xia Dongchun was pregnant, he searched all over the capital to buy this incense for her and send it to the palace to show that their Xia family attached great importance to it, which gave Concubine Hua the opportunity to do it - the incense in the goose pear tent is not common, but ylang-ylang flowers are very common.

"My little master said that this flower is delicate and cute, and it is very suitable for the little master Rong, so he asked the slave to send it over." Frost Flower is Xia Dongchun's other mouth, talking and doing things are all the same, and the Xia family specially selected Xia Dongchun to enter the palace.

An Lingrong's eyes flashed, and a plan quickly took shape in his mind, but he didn't show half a point, and only said with a smile: "I liked it when I saw this flower just now, and I was thinking about going to the flower room to find a pot, and it just so happened that you sent it over, and thanked your little master for me." After a pause, she reminded as if inadvertently, "Frost Flower, Zhizhi's pregnancy failed to prevent Concubine Hua from returning to favor, I think it is because Concubine Hua has a very heavy weight in the emperor's heart, and now this is the situation, you have to always admonish Zhizhi, don't act excessively and be caught." ”

It was her last kind reminder.

The frost flowers are different from the maple leaves, and she is grateful for An Lingrong, so when Dill came to talk to her that day, she agreed without saying a word. She knew that with An Lingrong, her little master would have a way out, but now that the little master is pregnant, everything depends on her own temperament, Shuanghua really can't move her, and Maple Leaf is such a personality, she sometimes feels tired.

Seeing An Lingrong say this, how could Shuanghua not be: "The little master Rong is good to my little master, the slave and maid keep it in mind, and the slave and maid will definitely tell the little master when they go back." ”

An Lingrong nodded and waved her hand to let her go down.

Dill looked at the ylang-ylang on the table and was embarrassed: "Little master, this ......"

"You go and talk to Xiao Xiazi and find a reason so that the emperor can think of coming to me tonight, don't say that I want the emperor to come over." An Lingrong raised his hand and gently stroked the petals of the ylang-ylang, without any expression on his face, "In the evening, you light the incense in the goose pear tent and mix it with the incense I made today, don't let people see the strangeness." ”

Dill opened her mouth, a little unsure of An Lingrong's meaning: "Little master, the warm incense you made today already has the effect of the previous condensation, if you add the incense in the goose pear tent and ylang-ylang, wouldn't it double the effect?" There will be damage to the little master's body! ”

"Concubine Hua set up a love incense bureau, in order to let Xia, Dong and Spring compete for favor, and after attracting the emperor's intentions, she took advantage of the situation to kill the child, and then the ylang-ylang withered, and then disposed of the incense, so that she could not be found by anyone." An Lingrong said Concubine Hua's plan, "Cao Guiren is very finely calculated, but I just want to pierce this layer of window paper, so that the matter can be traced back to the source, and they don't want to get out unharmed." ”

Her eyes flashed with a sharp light, her memories rolled as she spoke, the scenes of her miscarriage in her previous life flashed in her mind, the sharp pain seemed to be still in her body, the blood that kept flowing out stained the bed red, and the beating life was extinguished little by little, so desperate and helpless.

An Lingrong didn't know until she died, whether it was Concubine Xi who calculated her that time, or if it was really an accident, but Concubine Hua shouldn't have used this method to design summer, winter and spring!

In the peach blossom dock, the queen is picking lotus seeds.

"Xia Changzai gave the ylang-ylang flowers to Rong Changzai, and gave her half a box of goose pear tents?" The queen was a little surprised, the ylang-ylang flowers were fine, the fragrance was so precious, and Xia Dongchun could even give half to An Lingrong, "I don't know when these two people got together, and the relationship is so good." ”

"Yes, the slave was surprised. Xia Changzai, who was so calculating, was so generous to Rong Changzai. Jian Qiu took the lotus pod in the queen's hand, "Niangniang, this lotus seed is difficult to peel, and it hurts carefully." ”

The queen raised her hand and brushed away Jian Qiu's hand: "The palace knows that the emperor likes to eat lotus seeds, so I peel some of them myself, and wait a while to stew the lily lotus seed soup for the emperor to drink." ”

"Niangniang's sincerity to the emperor is really hard to find." Jian Qiu picked up another lotus pod and peeled it slowly.

"What about sincerity, and there are no heirs." The queen sighed, then stopped what she was doing, and sighed, "It's a pity that I couldn't use this incense to kill Xia Changzai's child, it's hard to find this incense that General Xia ran all over the city to find." Concubine Hua's abacus this time fell through again. As he spoke, he let out a long sigh as if he was very sorry.

Jian Qiu also murmured in a low voice: "Yes, I don't know where General Xia heard the absurdity, saying that if a pregnant woman often smells this incense during pregnancy, she will definitely be able to get a boy, so she spends a lot of money to buy incense and send it to the palace." Xia was really reluctant, and immediately gave Rong Changzai a small half box. ”

The queen sneered: "No matter who you listen to, they want a prince to stabilize Xia Chang's position, what is his mind, can't anyone really see it?" is just a coated left collar, and he dares to think about what he shouldn't get. The queen's eyes were full of coldness.

Seeing this, Jian Qiu silently lowered his head.

This love incense game is a game within a game, it seems that Concubine Hua set it up, but in fact, the hand is still in the hands of the queen, she only needs to gently click a chess piece, send the news to the Xia family, and then knock on the side to inform Cao Guiren of the effect of the incense and ylang-ylang flowers in the goose pear tent when they are used together, and Concubine Hua will shoot it, and it will not touch the queen at all.

The queen sat on the couch, slowly peeling the lotus seeds, her eyes were full of love for the emperor, the love was so strong that it almost buried the vicious and cruel in the depths of her eyes.
