An Lingrong was sick in a daze, she began to lose her past life and this life, countless pictures were intertwined and intertwined, dragging her slowly, slowly falling into the abyss.

She heard the emperor angrily reprimanding "The imperial doctor is useless, he can't cure the concubine, I want you all to be buried together", but in an instant, she heard him say "Everyone has a time when they are vicious, but your viciousness has exceeded others by a hundred times".

She heard Zhen Huan whispering again, "Rong'er, you have to get better quickly, I can't hold it alone", but she said "I won't hate you, and I don't want to forgive you, because it's too worthless."

True and false, false and real, suddenly shattered, scattered into a sky of starlight and disappeared into the darkness.

When he opened his eyes again, An Lingrong looked at the lucky bag hanging at the head of the bed in a trance, and shouted "dill" in a dumb voice.

It was in the dead of night, Dill stayed by the bed, and she didn't sleep deeply, An Lingrong shouted, and she woke up: "Niangniang, you finally woke up." She cried with joy, "Imperial Doctor Zhou has been guarding the palace for this time, and the slave maid is going to call him." ”

"I'll go later, Dill, I have something to tell you, come here." An Lingrong hurriedly stopped her, gasped for breath, and whispered when the dill listened to it, "Tell the beautiful scenery of Yonghe Palace, plantain is cold, bitter almond is poisonous, and the two complement each other, and you can kill people invisibly." ”

"Mother, you're not okay......"

"Dill, my illness can't get better, I have to ...... quickly" An Lingrong looked haggard, shook his head with difficulty and slowly, and a glint appeared in his eyes, "Before I die, I must kill the queen, otherwise ...... Otherwise, Hao'er, I'm afraid that my life will be in danger......" She reached out and held Dill's hand, "Dill, after I die, you must protect Hao'er and ...... Lingxi"

"Niangniang, don't talk nonsense, your illness will definitely get better." Dill choked up and said, "Imperial Doctor Wen has also come back from Zi Palace, just to treat you, he and Imperial Doctor Zhou have almost not closed their eyes this month, the emperor is in a hurry, Concubine Xi is also worried, Seventh Elder Brother will guard Niang......niang every inch whenever he is awake, he will guard Niangniang every step of the way."

An Lingrong burst into tears, and her lips turned pale: "Dill, fate is like this, it can't be changed." She raised her hand to wipe a handful of tears, looked solemn, and said coldly, "I'm afraid my sober days are numbered, you remember what I said." Go and tell Concubine Xi that if you want to bring down the queen, you must break off her relationship with Queen Chunyuan, and let the emperor know that it was the queen who killed Queen Chunyuan. Almond tea, the last bitter almond, is non-toxic when fried, but if it is raw, it is poisonous, and the queen used this to kill Queen Chunyuan and the child in her womb...... Others, she knows what to do. ”

"Yes, yes, the slave wrote it down." Dill nodded vigorously, tears streaming uncontrollably.

An Lingrong closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, it is another year, but the palace is so deserted that the emperor does not allow the palace to hold a big celebration, only let the mage of the Baohua Hall pray day and night, everyone in the palace knows what it is for, and everyone dare not say a word.

There are those who don't know the height of the sky, and they have to make trouble.

The noble man was crying and crying, his sideburns shrunk in the emperor's arms, and his long and narrow and charming eyebrows and eyes were full of endless sadness and grievances at this time: "The concubine suddenly had a miscarriage, all because the painting scroll of the picture of "Sending the Child to Guanyin" sent by Concubine Xi was stuffed with musk!" The concubine thought that the concubine was kind, so she hung in front of the bed every day, which also fulfilled the concubine's desire for a child, but she didn't expect that the concubine would be so vicious...... "She cried so much that she couldn't speak, and she fell on the emperor's shoulders and trembled.

Zhen Huan thought of this on the way here.

Since the first time she saw the nobleman, Zhen Huan didn't like her, and her intuition told her that this was a restless master, so since the nobleman was pregnant, Zhen Huan stayed away from her, and never thought that she would capsize in the small gutter.

"Your Majesty, just based on the words of the noble people, how can you assert that it was done by Concubine Xi?" Seeing that the emperor's expression was unpredictable, Concubine Jing said softly, "What's more, Concubine Xi has both children under her knees, and she holds the power of the six palaces as an assistant, so there is no room for conflict with the nobles, why do you want to harm her children?" It doesn't make sense. ”

"Concubine Jing's words can be said to be wrong, the noble people are favored and pregnant, if they give birth to the prince, I am afraid that the future is immeasurable, Xi Guifei Niangniang may not be able to take precautions in advance?" Kang Guiren opened his mouth with a smile, but the words he said were very sharp, "Concubine Jin of Yonghe Palace is pregnant, but Concubine Min is soft-spoken, and it is not enough to be afraid of losing a child, Concubine Xi is in a high position, so naturally she will not be taken seriously." ”

Zhen Huan pursed the corners of her mouth tightly, raised her eyes to look at the emperor, but saw that the emperor was also looking at her, and her heart was cold: "Your Majesty, why are you looking at your concubines like this?" ”

"Concubine Xi, have you ever done it?" The emperor asked in a cold voice, and the momentum exuding from his body made everyone shut up, "You just need to answer me, whether you have done it or not." ”

The snow outside the window fell from the branches, Zhen Huan's heart slowly sank, she blinked slightly, ignored the slightest stinging pain in her heart, leaned over and said: "Your Majesty, this painting was given to the noble person by the concubine a few years ago, if the musk was put by the concubine, the first person to bear the burden should be the concubine, not the noble person." She raised her head slowly, her eyes were dark, "The concubine is three months pregnant, half a month longer than the nobles, and I ask the emperor to make a clear decision." ”

The hall was silent, and the emperor's expression changed suddenly, and his eyebrows were dyed with joy: "Huanhuan, is this true?" ”

"The concubine has always believed that the period is not accurate, during this time, Rong'er is seriously ill and does not wake up, Imperial Doctor Wen and Imperial Doctor Zhou are lacking in skills, and there is only one guard by the concubine's side, so they dare not publicize this matter." Zhen Huan lowered her eyes, as if she inadvertently avoided the emperor's support, "There are many things to do in the new year, the imperial concubine can't stand it, and the concubines can't bear more, I never thought about it...... Please also ask the emperor to decree that the queen mother is grounded, and all things in this palace are still managed by the queen mother, and the concubines can raise the baby with peace of mind. ”

The emperor's palm fell into the air, and a trace of coldness crossed his face, but he also pressed it, and only said: "It's not good for me, I almost wronged you." You go back and rest first, and I'll see you after I'm done with this side of the business. ”

"Yes." Zhen Huan glanced coldly at the noble man who was shrunk at the head of the bed, and walked away without looking back.

The night was hazy, Zhen Huan walked on the way back to the palace in the snow, she glanced at the Weiyang Palace that was silent in the night, and a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, but soon, she cheered up: "Jinxi, accompany the palace to see the queen." ”

"Yes." Cui Jinxi lowered his eyes in response, raised his hand and waved away the rest of the servants, and took the lantern from Liuzhu's hand.

All the way to Jingren Palace, it was so quiet that only the sound of falling snow could be heard, and the queen seemed to expect Zhen Huan to come, so she asked Jianqiu to wait at the door early in the morning.

"Say hello to Concubine Xi, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Jian Qiu didn't have a smile on his face, and only gave Zhen Huan a salute as usual.

Zhen Huan lightly let her get up, motioned for Cui Jinxi to wait outside, and walked in alone.

In the hall, the queen was only wearing a homely dress in the color of a Hunan concubine, and she was sitting on the couch chanting, when she heard the footsteps, she didn't raise her head: "Concubine Xi, you are here." ”

"The concubine greets the queen." Zhen Huan leaned over and saluted.

"You're pregnant, so you can avoid these rites." The queen slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were gloomy, she looked up at Zhen Huan, and smiled coldly, "Concubine Xi is really lucky, such a predicament, she actually jumped out so lightly, and she didn't get any dirty water, and the palace still underestimated you." Her gaze fell gloomily on Zhen Huan's flat lower abdomen, "It's just that this palace also wants to remind Concubine Xi that the situation is changing rapidly, today's scenery, not tomorrow's scenery, you have to be careful and careful." ”

"Although Niangniang has been thinking about it behind closed doors, she is still deaf and clear, today's matter, if the concubine does not come to see the queen, I am afraid that she will not even be able to sleep well." Zhen Huan smiled lightly, "It's just that right now, the situation is not as good as others, Niangniang should protect herself, why do you want to act so eagerly?" You have just lost the third elder brother, if you make a mistake again, won't you cut yourself off? ”

The queen's hand twisting the Buddha beads paused slightly.

"The concubine just kindly reminded Niangniang, whether she listens or not, it's all up to Niangniang herself." Zhen Huan got up slowly, "The concubine is a little tired, so she will retire today." She leaned slightly, saluted, and then turned to leave.

"Wanguan."

Zhen Huan's footsteps stopped suddenly, she sank her face and looked back at the queen.

The queen was smiling and her expression was cold: "Wanwan." Concubine Xi, do you think this palace is calling you? She stared straight at Zhen Huan, her red lips closed one by one, as if she had a poisonous tongue spitting out a letter, "The person in the emperor's heart has never been you, you used to be Queen Chunyuan, and now you are Concubine Rong, you are nothing in his heart." The women in this palace are all losers, including you Xi Guifei, only her, only An Lingrong, she won, but unfortunately, she will also die......" The queen smiled abruptly, "Xi Guifei, the dead can't fight, you will be like me, living in the shadow of the closest people, forever and ever, and you can't escape this prison." ”

Zhen Huan looked at the queen quietly and was speechless for a long time.

The candles in the hall flickered, and the candlelight reflected their shadows, flickering and flickering.

"The queen is tired, let's rest early." Zhen Huan retracted her gaze and turned to leave.

The night was dull, like a giant beast devouring the sky, as if it was going to engulf the entire harem, Zhen Huan stepped on the night and returned to Yongshou Palace, Liu Zhu said that the emperor did not come, thinking that he stayed in Yanxi Palace to comfort the nobles.

In an instant, Zhen Huan felt full of sadness.

In her life, she has only loved two men and paid all her sincerity, but in the end, they all failed her.

One sees her as a stand-in, and the other takes advantage of her.

The dense letters on the table are full of evidence of King Guojun's intention to rebel over the years, Zhen Huan has read it carefully, she went from not believing it to having to believe it, from breaking down and despairing to accepting it calmly, only she knows the twists and turns in between.

On the second day of the second month of February, the palace held a sacrificial ceremony, and the queen finally lifted the grounding, but Zhen Huan's arms became more and more bad, Wei Lin's medical skills were not perfect, and he was helpless, so he had no choice but to ask Wen Shichu to go to Weiyang Palace to invite Wen Shichu over.

Wen Shichu was taken aback when he came: "Why is Niangniang's face so pale?" ”

"Rong'er's illness has not improved, if it is not a last resort, I don't want to alarm you." Zhen Huan pulled the corners of her mouth weakly, she really couldn't laugh, she could only sigh.

Wen Shichu didn't say much, and immediately stepped forward to check the pulse, and after a long time, he withdrew his hand, looked up at Zhen Huan, and said helplessly: "Niangniang, I believe Wei Lin has done his best." Judging from Niangniang's pulse, Wei Lin found that Niangniang's fetal image was much weaker than ordinary people, so he has been using astragalus and atractylodes to nourish Niangniang's body, but unfortunately, Niangniang was restless in the early stages of pregnancy, and the five internal depression knots, plus when Niangniang was pregnant, the deficiency of the twins that year had not been made up, and it was not a good time to get pregnant. ”

His tone was slightly deep, as if he didn't dare to alarm Zhen Huan: "This dragon fetus can only be kept for as long as it lasts." ”

Zhen Huan's heart was full of sorrow, as if something in her heart had collapsed and shattered, pierced into the flesh and blood, and her internal organs were in cold pain, she took a deep breath, and said calmly: "You tell me the truth, how long can I keep this child." ”

"Niangniang is already four months pregnant, and this child, even if Wei Lin and I try our best to protect him, he will not be able to protect him for five months." Wen Shichu pondered for a moment and said slowly.

"Five months?" Zhen Huan's eyes widened slightly in disbelief, and there was a faint fetal movement in her body, she reflexively protected her stomach, and tears fell one by one, "Then our mother-son relationship, isn't there less than a month left?" ”

The wind rustled the leaves, Zhen Huan only felt that the world was spinning, and her heart ached like a knife, but she had no one to tell, and the wind in early spring slightly carried the chill of the winter tail, blowing her heart barren. It's just that the sadness is only for a moment, and she has made up her mind, which may be a godsend.

"In this matter, don't tell anyone, as long as you and Wei Lin try our best to keep this child, how long can we keep it." Zhen Huan raised her eyes slightly, and a fierce edge flashed in her eyes, "Wei Lin has always made two copies of the prescription after I became pregnant, one is filed in the Tai Hospital, and the other is in my place, and the same is true for you." ”

"Also," Zhen Huan's voice was low, as if she had smacked cold ice, "You have to prepare a pair in advance and send away this child's decoction, maybe one day, this child can do me a great favor." ”
