An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

Qi Bin's father E Min impeached Zhen Huan's father Zhen Yuandao, but he refused to impeach him sooner rather than later. Why did he choose to impeach him at this time?

An Lingrong was puzzled. There was always a vague feeling of uneasiness lingering in his heart. His heart was hanging in his throat and beating rapidly.

Among the newcomers who entered the palace this time, Qi Concubine was of high status, but the emperor didn't seem to take her seriously. No!

But what was wrong, An Lingrong wondered. According to past practice, the emperor would use some unusual means to check and balance.

such as:

The emperor would deliberately favor Zhen Huan in front of Concubine Hua and push Zhen Huan to the forefront.

But this time, the emperor favored himself in front of Qi’s concubine. Could it be that he was doing it for Qi Guiji to see?

Fortunately, her father An Bihuai had long since ceased to be an official in the court, so Qi Concubine had no choice to target her.

So, he targeted Zhen Huan, his friend? It just so happens that Zhen Huan's father, Zhen Yuandao, is close to E Min on weekdays.

It was easy for E Min to find out Zhen Yuandao's tone in private.

The emperor deliberately provoked a fight between Qi's concubine and Zhen Huan. The emperor was afraid that Nian Gengyao's family would dominate, so he would kill them quickly.

Then the emperor's next target is the E family and the Zhen family?

Will they use the same method to deal with both families again?

An Lingrong took a deep breath. Instead of returning to Yining Palace, she took Qin Sanyue to Tangli Palace.

The Tangli Palace was filled with laughter and joy. It was not yet dinner time, so Chun'er stayed with Princess Baoer in Tangli Palace for three out of five days.

An Lingrong held Princess Bao'er in her arms and played with her for a while before returning the child to Chun'er with a solemn look on her face.

"Sister An, could it be that something happened with the Emperor? Why are you looking so serious?" Zhen Huan realized the seriousness of the matter. In the palace, she always maintained an extremely keen heart.

An Lingrong said quietly: "Sister Wan, there is something I want to tell you in advance. You must be mentally prepared."

Zhen Huan's face turned pale instantly. She patted her undulating chest and said, "Sister, tell me, I'm ready. I've experienced what I've been through for so long, and I won't be afraid anymore."

An Lingrong nodded and said, "I just came out of the Yangxin Hall. Today Qi's father, E Min, met with the emperor and submitted a memorial, saying that he wanted to impeach my sister's father."

Zhen Huan's eyes widened and she asked: "Qi Bin's father, E Min? Why did he impeach my father? My father is an upright official and never does anything that violates the laws of the Qing Dynasty. Could it be that he caught him? What's the reason? Sister, please tell me!"

An Lingrong comforted: "Sister, don't worry. E Min said that it was my sister's father who said bad things about the emperor in private, saying that the emperor's treatment of the Nian family was too cruel. Although Nian Gengyao rebelled, he still heard what the emperor wanted to do. He decided to rebel only after executing Concubine Hua. Over the years, Nian Gengyao had contributed a lot to quelling the foreign rebellion and supporting the emperor, but the emperor killed his entire family and punished the nine tribes without blinking an eye. "

Zhen Huan responded softly: "So that's it. There are many ministers who make such remarks. I once heard my father talk about the Nian family's affairs. He did say so. So what? Even if the emperor is angry, he will It's just a serious crime of disrespect. Is there anyone in this dynasty who dares to criticize the emperor for being stupid and incompetent? It's a pity that my father is not a Yanguan! Go to the emperor to redress my father’s grievances and ask for mercy.”

An Lingrong frowned slightly and said: "I think it's better for my sister not to plead for mercy on this matter. Since it's a big or small matter, according to the emperor's temperament, if my sister doesn't plead for mercy, and if E Min doesn't make a fuss about this matter, it will be fine." Big things have been reduced to trivial matters. I think that E Min probably wanted to save Qi Concubine. The emperor was cold to Qi Concubine. Last time outside the gate of the Yangxin Hall, the emperor originally announced that she would sleep with him, but in the end, Because she had something important to do, she waited for a long time in vain and took her anger out on Eunuch Su. Eunuch Su became angry and whispered something about concubine Qi in a low voice. The emperor heard this and asked Eunuch Su to withdraw concubine Qi. The green head card was withdrawn for a month. This incident probably aroused Qi Bin's anger, so she instigated her father to do something secretly. "

Zhen Huan sighed helplessly and said: "This is because I failed to please the emperor. I showed my face to the emperor. I will wait a few more days to see. But I also have to find an opportunity as soon as possible to inform my father about this as soon as possible so that he can have some time." Just be careful, don’t get close to E Min again, don’t reveal any information to him again.”

An Lingrong agreed: "That's the only way it can be. We are divided into two groups. On the one hand, my sister will inform your father about this matter. On the other hand, E Min speaks freely. I must give him some color." In this palace, it’s not up to him to do whatever he wants.”

Zhen Huan looked sideways and said: "Sister, don't act rashly, it's best to protect yourself first."

An Lingrong grinned and said, "I know, sister, don't worry."

An Lingrong asked Qin Yueyue to go to Cuihe Mountain to keep an eye on Chuxiu Palace, while he returned to Yining Palace with peace of mind and hummed a new Kunqu opera.

Spread out an unfinished "Hundred Flowers Picture" on the round table, and embroider it densely with your head buried in needlework.

The needlework was still intact, but her mind was not on the Hundred Flowers Picture. She was counting the time minute by minute.

At this time, Qin Sanyue roughly went down to Cuihe Mountain, and then found a secret place in the palace to hide.

Where is it hidden?

Is it on the bright red tiles of the main hall, or in a secluded corner of a certain palace?

She saw the opportunity to attack E Min. Xia Jiu would definitely be able to catch the rumor, but An Lingrong was sure that not only would Xia Jiu not stop Qin Sanyue, he might even secretly help her.

Deep love, no matter the reason!

At this time, Qin Sanyue's eyes were filled with cold stars, a small sharp dagger was spinning in his right hand, and he was lurking on the roof, waiting for E Min to come out of Chuxiu Palace.

In the palace at night, the passages look particularly eerie, quiet and depressing.

Suddenly, a crooked figure walked out of Chuxiu Palace. It was such a coincidence that he was the only one in the world.

In order to give E Min some reassurance, the emperor probably stayed in Chuxiu Palace for the night, and Su Peisheng was nowhere to be seen.

E Min yawned, with a very satisfied look on his face, and walked forward slowly and slowly, probably because he drank wine during the meal and looked drunk.

Qin Sanyue picked up his fingers and aimed lightly at E Min. A very soft voice came to his ears: "If you dare to murder an important official in the court, it will be a death penalty."

It was Xia Gao's voice, and it was still a bit harsh.

Qin Sanyue used the sound transmission technique and said: "Master Xia, please open the net, my little master only needs one ear."

Xia Gao's mosquito-like voice came, but it was extremely clear: "No, this E Min is missing an ear and his hearing will be damaged. This is not conducive to his work. Are you considering cutting off a few of his hairs?"

Qin Sanyue said angrily: "Master Xia, this servant is not here to bargain with you. Since Master Xia is reluctant to part with one of his ears, I at least have to take an earlobe back so that we can communicate better. A few hairs are broken, and he won't If it doesn’t hurt, how can you change it after being taught?”

Xia Gao didn't respond. Silence was acquiescence!

Qin Sanyue took action decisively, and the dagger in his hand made a slight piercing sound in the air. E Min had no time to react, and the lower half of his earlobe was cut off. He covered his ears, and blood overflowed from his fingers. Frightened, he woke up instantly.

All I heard was E Min yelling angrily: "Who is it?! Come out! Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"

Not far away, a young eunuch hurriedly ran over and gave E Min a simple bandage. Qin Sanyue snorted coldly and returned to Yining Palace after a few ups and downs.

An Lingrong said: "Cut off half of his earlobe. It will grow back after a while. It will teach him a lesson. But does he know that it is his mouth that is causing the trouble? Next time, shoot his mouth and let him Talk too much!”

Qin Sanyue said: "My lord, the dagger comes with a note, which states that if Mr. E dares to gossip behind his back again, it won't be his ears that get hurt next time. When the slave saw him, he was so frightened that he trembled all over. He collapsed on the ground, unable to crawl."
