An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

The atmosphere in Jingren Palace became quiet again. When the queen mentioned what moved her, she kept wiping her eyes with a handkerchief. Her eye circles were slightly red. Concubine Jing quickly stood up and said: "It is said that the queen empress is the best in the world. , working hard for the entire harem, everyone should also know how to be grateful. Don't send thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum to your doorstep when you need the Queen. When you don't need the Queen, just ask your servants to injure the Queen in the palace. "The chief eunuch."

An Lingrong's heart skipped a beat, this concubine was not a good thing either!

She said that the slave below refers to Zhou Ninghai who is beside Concubine Xiang, and the leader eunuch is naturally Jiang Fuhai who is beside the Queen. Concubine Jing pulled and stepped on her, and soon gained the support of several old concubines, such as Concubine Qi. The others, mostly old men who entered the palace at the same time, couldn't bear to undermine her sincerity towards the queen.

An Lingrong looked at the row where he was sitting. Zhen Huan lowered her head and scraped her long nails, indifferently; Shen Meizhuang lowered his head slightly, caressing his knees with both hands, looking down from his knees, after looking at his toes, his eyes returned to On your knees, looking straight.

The Empress forced out a wry smile, sighed softly and said: "This is my responsibility. Your Majesty has repeatedly told me to take good care of the Sixth Palace. I should do my best, but there are people who can understand this. Difficulties and sacrifices, you know how to be grateful, but some people don't know. If you have anything to say, I would rather you say it directly in front of me, instead of whispering behind my back. If Concubine Qi wants to visit Xiangbi. Just go as early as possible. I am getting old and will not leave the palace anymore if nothing happens. Anyway, the Sixth Palace Associate Minister also has Wan Bin, Hui Bin and Li Bin. If you have anything important, please go to the three of them first. Let’s discuss it and they will report it to me.”

Concubine Qi remained silent, and Concubine Jing also gathered her body, lowered her head and said nothing. When the queen saw that everyone was quiet, she yawned and said: "There is nothing important, let's call it a day." ! Let’s go! I’m tired too. If you don’t have anything to do today, I won’t be disturbed. Jianqiu, please send them out.”

Concubine Qi lazily stood up and reluctantly walked outside the palace gate of Jingren Palace. When she reached the palace gate, she turned around, looked at Lin Qing and Ximin who were following her, and said: " You two are always here, do you want to go and see Empress Xiangbi? As for me, the main reason why I want to see Xiangbi is to find out if her belly is really getting bigger. If it is true, I must congratulate her, because I am afraid that her menstruation is delayed. If it is due to other reasons, she will be checked out by the imperial doctor, so as not to make others laugh. "

Lin Qing looked sideways and said: "Concubine Qi, with Concubine Xiang's stable temperament, she is good at planning things, she will definitely not disclose the news that she is pregnant without a diagnosis. This baby, It must be true. Concubine Qi wants to visit her, so just do it openly and don’t care what other people say.”

An Lingrong couldn't help but stare at Lin Qing closely. This Lin Qing was also straight-tempered. He never minced words and said whatever he wanted. However, such a person would not be liked by Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiang, but Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiang would not like her. When the concubine was alive, she liked Lin Qing, and now Xiang concubine also likes Lin Qing. However, compared to Concubine Qi, Li concubine, Xi Changzai, and Xia Ruchun, Lin Qing is indeed much smarter than them. It seems that concubine Xiang likes Lin Qing. Smart people, and I also like smart people. Of course, loyalty is more important.

Lin Qing said that she was going back to Yanxi Palace to rest. Xi Changzai complained that she did not want to be with Concubine Qi. An Lingrong took a step forward and said to Concubine Qi: "Concubine Qi, they all have something important to do. You Don't embarrass them, I just want to see Concubine Xiang and find out what's going on in her belly, so why not just let me go with Concubine Qi."

Concubine Qi was overjoyed and quickly took An Lingrong's hand. The two of them entered Xiangbi's Xuanxiu Palace together. Wearing a thick golden quilt, An Lingrong came across a guzheng at the end of the bed. An Lingrong's fingertips gently swept over the guzheng. It was spotless. It seemed that Xiangbi cherished this guzheng very much. At a banquet in the palace, Xiangbi once received instructions from the emperor and played the guzheng in front of all the concubines. The sound was so sweet that it sounded like a song. Even a mortal would feel that Xiangbi's achievements in the guzheng were extraordinary.

An Lingrong secretly thought, this Chun'er's pipa sounded pleasant to the ears when played by hand, but no one expected that when she played it hard, it would become a murderous weapon. Who knew that this concubine's guzheng Is there such a superior skill?

"Empress Xiangbi, Concubine Qi and Empress Libi have come to visit you." Xiangbi's personal maid, after putting tea on her sleeves, leaned over and whispered in Xiangbi's ear, fearing to shock Xiangbi's belly. children.

Xiang Concubine opened her eyes weakly and said, "Oh, it's Concubine Qi and Concubine Li who are here. Yinxiu help me sit up quickly."

Concubine Qi stepped forward and pressed Xiang Pin's shoulders and said: "Xiang Pin, I just stopped by to see if your body and bones are okay! Have you asked the imperial doctor to check your pulse? It's best to make a diagnosis first. By the way, Li Pin He can also feel the pulse, would you like Li Bin to take a look at it for you?"

Yin Xiu supported Xiang Pin's upper body and sat up and said, Xiang Pin smiled bitterly and said: "I forgot, Li Pin can also detect the pulse, but I am afraid of the child in my belly. I don't know the gender, and I'm afraid that he will accept the birth, so I don't want to bother Li Bin. Concubine Qi, I know my body and bones are already being treated. You can rest assured that I am really pregnant. .....I couldn’t eat anything today, and I vomited it out as soon as I ate it. It made me feel nauseated. It was really uncomfortable.”

Concubine Qi said heartbrokenly: "Hey, no wonder your face looks so pale. It's pale, without a trace of blood. It turns out you haven't eaten for a whole day. How can you do that? If you don't eat, how can you have any strength? Look at you. I don't even have the strength to speak. I am really very weak. Let's do this. Yinxiu will prepare some light porridge. Remember that all meals must be light. Give it to Xiangbi. If she vomits, wait until she vomits. Eat again after you finish, and it will be better than eating nothing at all.”

Another palace maid named "Yu Guo" quickly brought the light porridge and fed it to Xiangbi. Unexpectedly, it just turned around in her mouth and was spat out again. Xiangbi coughed. Out of breath, when she came up with a breath, Concubine Qi chatted for a few more words, and An Lingrong asked Concubine Qi to leave Xuanxiu Palace.

An Lingrong knew that Xiangbi couldn't trust him. He could have helped her feel her pulse, which was just the right time to find out what was true. However, he didn't expect that Xiangbi would be so venomous about a fetus that had only been in her belly for more than a month and was not yet human. , will he accept life?

An Lingrong's face must not have looked good. From leaving the palace to the fork in the road, Concubine Qi had to go left, and she had to go right.
