Chapter 165. Double carving

Concubine Qi immediately knelt down towards the queen, her voice trembling: "Queen Mother, concubine ......"

"This palace has promised to keep it a secret for you, and I will definitely insist on it." The queen interrupted her words and guided her with a little demagogy, "Some things must always be guarded against, Wan Guiren was too favored at that time, and she was alone in the forest, but now, Ye Yu has just entered the palace, and Concubine Min is pregnant and steals the limelight, so it is not so prominent." ”

Concubine Qi was in a fog when she heard this, and her face was full of confusion.

"Think about the words of this palace, not for this palace, but for your third elder brother to never have trouble." The queen took Jian Qiu's hand and got up to leave, leaving Concubine Qi alone to meditate.

Jingren Palace was quiet, so quiet that she could hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground, Concubine Qi knelt and thought for a long time before leaving step by step with Cuiguo's support, along the way, her mind was still circling what the queen said to her.

The queen's meaning is to let her go all out and drug Ye to cut off her fertility, right? The last time she did it to Wan Guiren, it was so thrilling, the queen mother covered up the past for her, this time, it was just a promise, and the queen mother would be able to keep her safe and sound. What's more, there is also a Min Concubine - Ye promised not to give birth if she couldn't give birth, so there was still a child in Min Concubine's belly!

Concubine Qi couldn't help but be a little eager to try, the more she thought about it, the more it was like this, but in a blink of an eye, she frowned again.

What should I do?

She looked up at the white flowers that were about to bloom on the branches, and for a moment she was in trouble.

"Say hello to Concubine Qi, Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an." A little palace maid came over with a well-behaved face, and after Concubine Qi called to get up, she leaned in and reminded softly, "Niangniang, oleander is going to thank you, you better stand farther away, the pollen and juice of this flower are toxic, if Niangniang eats it by mistake, it will not be good." ”

When Concubine Qi heard this, she hurriedly took two steps back: "Really? ”

The little palace maid pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, the slave's hometown is rich in oleanders, so the slave knows it." This oleander blooms in June, defeated in October, although it has the effect of removing stasis and relieving pain, but the cold is poisonous, the fetus is sad, in the slave's hometown, the pregnant women will stay away from the oleander, and they dare not approach at all. ”

Concubine Qi's heart suddenly brightened, staring at the oleander non-stop.

Seeing that Concubine Qi had already listened to all the words, the little palace maid lowered her head and leaned over to leave.

"My sister taught me, and I told Concubine Qi Niangniang word for word."

"Well done, this is the mother's reward for you."

"Thank you, sister, if there is such a good thing in the future, my sister will come to me again."

The cold plum blossoms of the wax moon, and the red plum falls into the snowy eyes.

On a quiet afternoon, a heart-rending scream in Yikun Palace pierced the silent harem, and Concubine Min had a miscarriage.

The sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly, An Lingrong slowly opened his eyes, looked up at the Guanyin Bodhisattva with compassion and good intentions, and his face was relieved: "There are no traces left, right?" ”

Dill behind him shook his head gently: "No." ”

"Okay." An Ling Rongfu closed his eyes again and continued to chant the prayer beads.

Everyone thought that she was in a slump, and even the queen thought that she would be depressed from now on, but no one knew that the day after Ankang sealed the coffin, An Lingrong had already made a silent move.

She used all the connections in her hands, but in two days, she found out what happened on the day of the Double Ninth Festival.

Then, she asked the slave of the flower room to inadvertently reveal the harm of oleander to Concubine Qi, and after Concubine Qi moved her mind, she arranged for the little eunuch in the imperial dining room to hold the exact same food box, and accidentally collided with Cuiguo halfway, and adjusted the food box, no matter who Concubine Qi originally wanted to start, the plate of chestnut cake would eventually go to Concubine Min's hands.

And the queen, she has wanted to accept the third elder brother as her adopted son for a long time, and now that Concubine Qi is digging her own grave, she is naturally happy to see it, not only will she not save her, but she will even push her into the fire pit again, as for Concubine Min, the queen will not care about it.

An Lingrong guessed correctly, Concubine Min was purely an abandoned child played by the queen in the palm of her hand, and she could be thrown away after using it once, not to mention that she was pregnant silently, and she got rid of her with Concubine Qi's hand, and she got rid of two eyesores in one go, and it was too late for the queen to be happy.

It's just that I'm afraid I'm a little confused in addition to being happy.

"This palace has already asked Xiao Tangzi in the imperial dining room, and he said that on the way to deliver pastries to Concubine Min, he only met the cuiguo beside you, and you did make a plate of chestnut cakes that day, and you originally planned to send it to Ye Xu, yes or no?" The queen looked coldly at Concubine Qi who was kneeling on the ground, and saw that she was holding her neck and leaving people without saying a word, she couldn't help but curse a fool in her heart, suppressing the joy in her heart, she let out a long sigh, "The imperial doctor told the palace that Concubine Min's child was not saved, and she couldn't even have any more children in the future." You've done it neatly, but why did the knife go off the rails? ”

Concubine Qi faintly heard that something was wrong, and raised her head to look at the queen, but she saw a faint smile in her eyes, and suddenly the alarm bell rang in her heart: "Queen Mother, the concubine didn't expect that things would be sent to Yikun Palace......"

The queen retracted her gaze and stopped looking at her, lowered her head and took a sip of tea slowly: "If Ye agrees, this palace can still bother to protect you, but Concubine Min, she is the blood relative of Princess Rongxian, how many dares and lives do you have, and you dare to attack her?" What's more, she is still pregnant with a dragon heir! ”

"Queen Mother, Concubine Min's miscarriage is not about the concubines!" Concubine Qi really panicked at this time, knelt and climbed two steps to grab the corner of the queen's clothes, and cried, "The concubine didn't want to harm Concubine Min, let alone her child......"

"Don't you dare?" The queen put down the teacup and smiled sarcastically, "Concubine Min is pregnant, haven't you been afraid for a long time?" This accident may be in your arms, or maybe you are pretending to deal with Ye Promise, but you actually want to get rid of Concubine Min's child? Concubine Qi, you are really ruthless. ”

Concubine Qi was so frightened that she shook her head again and again: "No, no, the concubine doesn't dare, the concubine ...... The concubines have all listened to you! ”

"Listened to Hongu?" The queen's eyes widened in confusion, "How did this palace ever teach you to harm others?" ”

Concubine Qi was completely stunned.

"The idea is you who take it, and the people are your fault, this palace is willing to pull you because this palace is merciful, if you can't, you are also to blame." Of course, the queen can protect Concubine Qi, but it is just that the servants in the imperial dining room have done something wrong, and it can be ended by pulling it out and taking the guilt, but this time, the queen doesn't want to protect Concubine Qi, rather than leaving her life to bury a disaster for herself in the future, it is better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots now.

Seeing the killing intent in the queen's eyes, Concubine Qi's feet collapsed on the ground, and she looked at the queen in disbelief: "Niangniang......"

"From the beginning of your intention to murder Wan Guiren, this palace has protected you and taken you, but you are really useless for a lady like you. Your father Li Zhifu has been exiled by the first emperor for taking bribes, and since then, you have no ability to protect your son, if it weren't for the blessing of this palace, do you think your third elder brother can grow up safe and sound? The queen's words were heartfelt, and Concubine Qi was killed, "This palace always asks you to do things, but you are so stupid and stupid, when this palace knows that you are a pastry that Cuiguo sent to, this palace knows that this time, it will be difficult for this palace to protect you." ”

Concubine Qi was in tears of despair, but she couldn't refute a word.

"What you did, let people know at once that you did it, even if that plate of chestnut cake was not accidentally sent to Ye Cheng's palace, do you think the emperor will be so confused that you can't find out if you are so blatantly harmful?" The queen leaned on the pillow and said lazily, "If this palace protects you again, it will affect yourself and the third elder brother." She looked at Concubine Qi and said word by word, "The third elder brother is a lady like you, so he will not be valued by the emperor." You tell this palace yourself, with what you do, can you help the third elder brother inherit the throne? ”

Concubine Qi cried and laughed, crying that she couldn't know people clearly, and there was no way to live after that, laughing at her that she finally planned a road to heaven for the third elder brother, and the queen would definitely protect the third elder brother to become a great treasure. She muttered to herself, repeating constantly: "The concubine is a useless mother...... Concubines are useless......"

"With a mother like you, the third elder brother will never be able to be the prince." The queen saw that the time was almost up, so she said, "Now this palace will give you two options, first, this palace will report you to the emperor, intending to murder Wan Gui and Ye Xu, and murder Min Concubine and the dragon fetus, then the emperor will also be angry with the third elder brother, and when the time comes, one of your mothers and sons will die, and the other will no longer have the possibility of ascending the throne." Second, if you take care of this matter yourself, this palace will fulfill the third elder brother for you and let him inherit the great cause. How to do it, you choose. ”

Concubine Qi had no choice at all.

And there is no other choice, except for her, there is also Concubine Min.

In Yikun Palace, Concubine Min sat at the head of the bed and drank the medicine one after another, her face was as pale as paper, after hearing the news that Concubine Qi had hanged herself, she was so shocked that she dropped the medicine bowl, and the thick black medicine juice spilled all over the bed, but she didn't realize it, she only gritted her teeth and held back the trembling, and kept repeating: "She refuses to let go after all...... She still won't let go ......"

Even if she has lost her child, even if she is now barely living.

The jade nobleman shouted in her ear, and it took a long time before Concubine Min came back to her senses with a desolate face, she looked at the empty Yikun Palace, and felt desolate in her heart: "Shi Shao, you remember, my death has nothing to do with the concubine Niangniang, if you want to avenge me in the future, you must remember that it was the queen who killed me." ”

Yu Guiren was distressed: "Ah Hong, you will be fine, don't say such unlucky words." ”

"I don't have long to live." Concubine Min took a miserable smile and looked at the jade nobleman, tears fell drop by drop, "I'm sorry, I can't accompany you anymore, this palace is far more terrible than we imagined, you have to live well, don't think about avenging your sister or anything, you have to please the emperor, be favored, have children, and live well in the palace." Also, Song Zhi said that your sister had a relationship with the concubine Niangniang during her lifetime, and you didn't have anything to do with your health, for the sake of this friendship, as long as you keep to yourself, the concubine Niangniang will not tolerate you......"

Listening to Concubine Min's words, Yu Guiren panicked for a while: "Ah Hong, okay, what are you talking about?" ”

Concubine Min shook her head and lay down with her clothes: "Just remember my words, don't ask this." ”

The night is dull, the snow is difficult to walk, there is no light in the Yikun Palace, and the dormitory is dim, however, when the eyes are out of sight, the ears will become particularly sensitive.

At the moment when An Lingrong stepped into the dormitory, Concubine Min heard the movement, she sat up with her arms struggling, looking at a few steps away, An Lingrong stood there wearing a black cloak, she was in a trance for a moment, and slowly and difficult knelt on the bed and saluted: "Say hello to the concubine." She tugged at the corners of her mouth, trying to smile, but she couldn't.

An Lingrong slowly approached, lowered his eyes and looked at the top of Concubine Min's black head, and waited for a long time before speaking in a deep voice, his voice hoarse: "Concubine Min, is there anything wrong with me treating you?" ”

Concubine Min's body shook suddenly, and guilt and self-blame surged like a monstrous wave, drowning her. How could it be bad? Concubine Rong treated her very well, compared to her sister, she treated her more like a child, so good that she almost gave up the fight for the back position, thinking that if she could be protected by Concubine Rong all the time, it might be good.

But there is no regret medicine in the world!

Concubine Min's forehead was pressed against the bed board, and her voice was choked: "The concubine deserves death......

An Lingrong couldn't shed a single tear, she raised her head and closed her eyes, and said abruptly: "Four years ago, on such a snowy night, I came to Yikun Palace to see off Concubine Hua, who was very prosperous back then, and now, I am here to see you off." She whispered, "I've always liked you, because you're so similar to someone I once knew, and looking at you always reminds me of the good old days......"

An Lingrong's voice became lower and lower, and in the end, it was almost inaudible, but Concubine Min still heard it, and she said, "...... But you shouldn't do anything to my well-being. ”

Min Concubine closed her eyes in despair.

"The concubine understood." Concubine Min slowly raised her head and looked at An Lingrong with a dead face, "The jade nobleman didn't know about this matter from beginning to end, and asked Niangniang to let her live." ”

An Lingrong stared straight into Concubine Min's eyes and asked, "Is she really completely unaware?" After a pause, he seemed to remember something, and said, "If she can settle down in the future, this palace will spare her life." ”

"Thank you, mother." Concubine Min kowtowed to An Lingrong again, then looked at An Lingrong again, and said, "Niangniang, whether you believe it or not, it was not the concubine who pushed Princess Ankang off the Chongyang Tower that day, but the concubine, the queen only asked people to pass the word to the concubine, and let the concubine take the princess up the tall building, and the others ......"

"Hongu knows." An Lingrong looked at Concubine Min's eyes solemnly, "It was pushed by the concubine, it was instructed by the queen, and the palace knows all this." After learning that Xiuxia was whipped to death by the queen who broke her hand tendons and tendons, she knew that all this was arranged by the queen, and after a closer inspection, she found the concubine.

Concubine Min's heart skipped a beat, only to realize that she had underestimated An Lingrong before, and the control of the harem by this forever smiling concubine was far beyond her imagination.

It's not that she doesn't fight, she just doesn't want to fight.

"The concubine Niangniang rewarded Yikun Palace Min Concubine, a gold ingot." Dill spoke coldly, pulling Min Concubine's thoughts back, and a golden gold fell in front of Min Concubine.

"Concubine, Shane." Concubine Min stared blankly at An Lingrong's back as she left, and it took a long time before she laughed stupidly.

laughed at himself for being stupid, and even laughed at the queen's stupidity, actually awakening such a fierce beast.

And what she didn't know was that at this moment, on Lingyun Peak outside the palace, another fierce beast also opened its sleeping eyes fiercely, she looked into the distance with deep eyes, and spit out two words in a cold voice: "Return to the palace." ”
