After rebirth, I made the princes cry

The shrill lightning split the black clouds, and after a few breaths, there was an explosion.

Yingshu was not surprised at all that this rain would come. Although she had no awareness of this rain in her previous life, tonight she was specifically waiting for this rain. She guarded the window and listened to the rolling thunder. The sound of rain, the wind pouring into the window, and the smell of moisture can make your heart suffocate.

She thought that Wang Qing'e's past life had a deep memory of the rain because she couldn't sleep all night. When she entered the palace, she should have regarded the concubine as her own. But today, in her past life, the dust has settled and it was Zhang who was promoted to One of the nine concubines, Mrs. Xie must have seemed unconcerned, and Wang Qing'e must have been filled with grief and anger. She couldn't sleep, and when the rain fell, her mood must have become even more impetuous.

This rain had no impact on Jiankang. No one in the government and the public in Dayu knew that it came from Northern Zhao to Jiangdong. Ji County around the old capital Luoyang was affected by many heavy rains. Floods were so fierce that the emperor of Northern Zhao Even if you don’t have a kind and compassionate heart, you should worry about the survivors of Western Henan who are affected by floods. Not only will the survivors who were enslaved by Northern Zhao be deprived of food and clothing, but so much farmland in Ji County will be destroyed and no harvest will be harvested. The disaster will also be affected. The monarchs, ministers and nobles of Northern Zhao.

News of the disaster in Northern Zhao reached Jiankang, but it became Zhang's "luck". Wang Qing'e, who lost at the starting line first, how could she forget the rain she was "waiting for" when she stayed up all night?

But the strong wind and rain did not affect Yingshu's sleep.

She always went to bed late, but when it was midnight, she felt quite sleepy.

After a night of wind and thunder, I didn't fall asleep. I opened the window the next day, and my eyes were still full of jade-like pearls. The heavy rain left no traces among the flowers and leaves. The flowers and leaves became more and more refreshed just like after taking a bath and "changing clothes". Yingshu was still with Xiao Peng had breakfast together. They no longer had to go to the Internal Training Department to attend lectures. After a leisurely day, Xiao Peng asked if he should greet Mrs. It's very deserted. If we are asked to go there, it will be when she is interested in chatting. Normally, there is no need to take the initiative to disturb her. You go to the study first, and I will come after a while."

Yingshu felt that Wang Qing'e would definitely come to see her today.

As expected, Wang Qing'e walked into the pavilion as soon as the palace officials removed the dining table. The difference from yesterday was that today she did not have to wait outside Zhaoyang Palace for Ying Shu to decide whether to see her or not. Her treatment had been improved. , probably because of this, it is not so difficult for Wang Qing'e to laugh today.

"I believed what Fourth Sister said yesterday." Yingshu said that she had to make Wang Qing'e happier.

Wang Qing'e's eyes sparkled with joy, and she did not hide her relief: "Fifth sister and I are different. Madam Xie really wants to take advantage of fifth sister. In addition to our King Langyi, she is even more powerful." Concerned about the surname Jiangdong Lu, in that life I was naturally not as important as Mrs. Zhang in the eyes of Mrs. Even if I don't enter the palace and marry Pei Men, if Fifth Sister doesn't forgive me and my aunt doesn't intercede for me, I won't be able to get my mother-in-law's approval. Fifth Sister believes that I have truly repented and is willing to help and take care of me. Only then can my life go smoothly."

"It's easy to talk about." Yingshu smiled slightly: "Mrs. He asked Fourth Sister to find a way to win my trust. Does Fourth Sister know what Mrs. He stands for?"

"Mrs. He must be trying to intensify the conflict between the Zhang family and Fifth Sister. To deal with the Xianyang Palace, no matter who Mrs. Chong has not been promoted to the concubine position. She is not a reborn person and cannot predict what will happen in the future. Therefore, she will definitely be more anxious and impetuous. I think she will still be stupid and fall into the trap. She will attack Xu and cause Xu's miscarriage. , Fifth Sister can also use the trick, as long as Mrs. Xie is not implicated by Zhang, and then she exposes Mrs. He's conspiracy, she can kill two birds with one stone."

Wang Qing'e held her hand, put her mouth close to Ying Shu's ear, and murmured for a while.

Yingshu did not send Wang Qing'e back to Hanguang Hall that day. After Wang Qing'e left, she called Yingdan and asked, "Has there been any result about what I asked you to inquire about a few days ago?"

"The current palace attendant of Wang Shaojun in Hanguang Palace is Xing Ping. She is Mrs. He's confidant. In addition, Wang Shaojun has not been close to other nobles. Except for Mrs. He, she has gone to Ningxi Pavilion of Concubine Shu. Come back."

"I usually see that Concubine Shu seems to be extremely respectful to Her Majesty the Queen."

"Concubine Shu is indeed very respectful to the queen. Concubine Shu was originally the concubine of Qiandi. She gave birth to a female son-in-law before, but unfortunately he died in infancy. When His Majesty became emperor, Concubine Shu had no heirs. Only with the care of the queen could she be promoted to the ninth rank. As the first concubine, the Queen ordered the medical officers to provide good diagnosis and treatment. Concubine Shu was able to recover from the sequelae she suffered during her first childbirth. Princess Gaoping and His Highness the Sixth Prince were born one after another. Therefore, Concubine Shu is very grateful for the Queen's kindness."

"Is there any concubine Shu in Concubine Qiao's Yuyin Pavilion?"

"Everyone has expected this." Yingdan said.

In fact, she is not a person who is good at spying on intelligence, but she has served in the Zhaoyang Palace for a long time. Madam Xie has kept her eyes and ears in the inner court over the years. As for the inside information of other palaces, she was told to serve Yingshu. Even though she had told her, Yingdan could understand. This was an indication that Mrs. Xie had not concealed anything from Yingshu at all.

Concubine Qiao thinks she is shrewd, but she has already had the eyes and ears of "other families" in her Yuyin Pavilion. Although these agents cannot become Concubine Qiao's confidants, they may not be able to cause trouble.

Even in the Zhaoyang Palace, there were ears and eyes installed by the Xianyang Palace, but Mrs. Xie allowed the ears and eyes to exist and was just on guard in secret.

Yingdan would sometimes feel emotional, even all the concubines knew clearly in their hearts that the prince was the crown prince in His Majesty's mind. This decision was difficult to change, but Zhaoyang Palace, Hanguang Palace, and Changfeng Palace were still competing for the throne. Ambition is not actually fighting for the king's favor. What is fighting is to use family power to force the king to compromise. Therefore, the battlefield in the inner court is as cruel as the real battlefield.

In fact, even the king of a country must compete with his concubine.

How much bloodshed will happen in this seemingly gorgeous inner court?

Yingdan lowered his eyes and could see Yingshu's slender wrists from the corner of his eye. The woman who had just reached hairpin size was still weak in bones. I really didn't know if she could withstand the open spears and hidden arrows from all directions. Her advantage was not only her natural intelligence, but also her strength. It is indeed your majesty's love. Now it is the elders' love for the younger ones. In the future, there may be a change, but no matter whether it changes or not, in the king's mind, except for Jiangshan Sheji, how can the children of other families compare to him? What about your own flesh and blood?

Yingdan felt pity.

She also thought that such pity might be inappropriate, because her status was too humble and her strength was even weaker, so she did not seem to be qualified to pity the nobles. But for some reason, Yingdan could always think of her sister when she saw Yingshu, before entering the palace. The younger sister, who could not stop crying in her arms, said: My sister has gone to the palace, what should I do if my brother bullies me? No one will protect me anymore.

Her sister will also get haircut in the future, and may marry the son of a neighboring family. Of course, she will not be involved in the intrigues and intrigues, but whether she has enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, her husband will not treat her well. Okay... Even if my sister can marry a good son-in-law and have enough food and clothing, if His Majesty fails to control the situation and civil strife breaks out and foreign enemies invade, how can the people expect to live and work in peace and contentment?

Yingdan was stunned.

Yingshu also fell into deep thought for a while. When she came back to her senses, she saw another person standing next to her.

"What are you worried about?"

After hearing the question, Yingdan just came back to her senses. There were some things she shouldn't have said at first, but she didn't know why she said them: "My dear, don't blame me. Just now, I suddenly thought of my little sister at home, and I thought too much. "

Yingshu was silent.

In this life, she and Yingdan met too late. Yingshu knew about Yingdan's family background. It was only when she deliberately inquired about Yingdan's little sister that she learned that Yingdan's parents despised their daughter and only wanted to For the sake of her son, not long after Yingdan entered the palace, her little sister fell into the water and died young because of her parents' carelessness. Yingdan's family had long forgotten that there was a daughter in the palace, and they didn't even care about Yingdan's. Life or death, when Yingshu heard that there were such parents in the world, she was very angry.

One person's words helped her extinguish her anger.

What the man said was not gentle at all, he just revealed a cruel truth.

Daughters born into wealthy families may encounter eccentric parents, but because the daughter of a wealthy family has the role of marriage, she has still been pampered since childhood. But those really poor people only raise children so that they can add a strong labor force to the family in the future. When they are old, they will be supported by their children and grandchildren. Because they cannot expect the support of their daughters, they regard their daughters as outsiders, and their daughters must be married off. , the person who should support after marriage is the parents-in-law.

This is unfair, against the kindness of parents, and even against human nature. But for the people who have been worried about their livelihood, the first problem they face is how to survive.

Later, Yingshu heard some more cruel things with her own ears. The survivors on the other side of the Huai River were forced to exchange their children for food because of hunger and cold. After all, her grief and anger would no longer be directed at the survivors. Only then could she understand the common people. The helplessness.

Yingshu didn't hesitate for long.

"I can help you find out how your family is doing."

"But this servant is not from Gyeonggi..."

"Nothing, just tell me your address and I will ask my father and mother to find out for you."

The younger sister's death is a sad thing for Yingdan, but she will know about it sooner or later, because when the concern in Yingdan's heart grows thicker, she will take the initiative to ask for help.

Yingshu decided to go to Ningqi Pavilion and asked Yingdan to follow her. Yingdan didn't think Yingshu should go, but she was a little surprised: "My husband and Concubine Shu have no intersection, so they take the initiative to communicate with each other at this time." , wouldn’t it allow Concubine Shu to set up defenses instead?”

"If I had even ignored the fact that Fourth Sister was close to Concubine Shu, I would have put Concubine Shu on guard. At this time, it is only reasonable to explore her true and falsehoods. Let's not talk about it, even my aunt can't understand how deep she is towards Concubine Shu. Sure, the storm is coming, if I can’t know myself and the enemy, how can I be sure to defeat the enemy and win?”

"This slave is too talkative."

"Yingdan, my aunt asked you to take care of my daily life. From now on, we will share the blessings and misfortunes. No matter what worries you have, you can always speak up. I know you are steady and meticulous. Sometimes I ignore people and things, but I still count on you." I always remind you that you don’t know much about my temperament. If you have a chance, I will let you meet the maid in my house. She also has the word "dan" in her name. You may be able to get along. She will tell you about those years. I've been embarrassed."

Fate is a very wonderful thing. For example, Yingdan and Danying had no chance to meet each other, but in the previous life, Yingdan accompanied Yingshu wine to sacrifice to Danying. At that time, Danying sighed: "My name and yours are both taboo." There is a Dan character, and I am lucky enough to serve the same master. If we can get to know each other, maybe we will hit it off.

Now is the chance to really get to know each other.
