If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft
Chapter 223 Liu Zhu stole food from the imperial kitchen
Since the day Huanbi was taken to the Yangxin Palace by the emperor, she played the piano for the emperor in her spare time, and was promoted to Xi Yingying. In this regard, the concubines in the harem often practiced piano and dance in their rooms. They all heard that it was because Chun Yingying took Xi Yingying to play the piano and dance for the emperor that Xi Yingying had this opportunity.
"Mammy, how long has Concubine Wan stayed in the Old Summer Palace?" When Lingrong heard this, she didn't think that it was really Huanbi's piano playing that moved the emperor and made him miss her so much.
"Lady Wan has been under house arrest for four months. She should be able to come back by the end of the year." The nanny counted the days on her fingers before replying.
"It's been four months already, she might be coming back soon." Ling Rong said with a wry smile. She knew it wouldn't be so easy to overthrow Zhen Huan. In her previous life, Zhen Huan was banished to Lingyun Peak for training, yet she was still able to come back, let alone now.
"My lady, don't worry. After all, she hasn't come back yet, and we don't even know if she will be able to come back." Nanny Li said lightly, but Ling Rong could sense something was wrong in her words.
"Madam, what do you know?" Lingrong stared at Madam Li intently.
Nanny Li whispered in Ling Rong's ear, "I heard that Concubine Hua sent someone to deduct Concubine Wan's food and feed her cold meals. I'm afraid she won't survive for a few more days."
Ling Rong was a little surprised after hearing this. This was a typical case of Concubine Hua taking advantage of your weakness to kill you. However, she felt that Zhen Huan would not die so easily, especially since the Emperor still remembered her because of Huanbi. "Just wait and see. She will not die so easily."
Nanny Li didn't take it seriously. She felt that Concubine Wan had narrowly escaped death in this incident, because even if she didn't die, Concubine Hua would not let her come back.
"Mammy, please accompany me to take a walk in Yime Garden." Yime Garden is a Feng Shui treasure land. It was the beginning of Zhen Huan's favor in her previous life, and it also helped Zhen Huan regain favor many times.
"My lady, the roads are slippery in the snow and you are pregnant, so it may not be appropriate to go to Yimei Garden. If you want to see the plum blossoms, have someone pick some branches and put them in the house." Nanny Li's face wrinkled. Ling Rong is almost five months old now. If she has any mishap, all the servants in Yongshou Palace will be in trouble.
"It's okay. I haven't exercised all day, and I'm afraid my body will get rusty. Please walk with me slowly, and enjoy the snow and plum blossoms." After saying this, Ling Rong walked out without giving Nanny Li time to refuse.
Nanny Li and Juqing walked on Lingrong's left and right, less than half a step away from her, for fear that she would slip and they would not be able to react in time. Lingrong knew they were worried and did not refuse.
The plum blossoms in Yimei Garden are in full bloom, with the red ones being the most eye-catching, and the white ones no longer visible due to the falling snow. "How beautiful the flowers in Yimei Garden are, how miserable Zhen Huan is in Yuanmingyuan now.
"Eunuch, our young lady is sick. Please give her some more rice. We will use the silver to buy it." Liu Zhu took her only remaining silver hairpin and went to the imperial kitchen to ask the eunuch to give them some rice.
The weather was cold, and charcoal was supplied everywhere, but how could Concubine Hua want Zhen Huan to die, so why would she let people supply charcoal for her? Zhen Huan was already hungry, and now she was starving, so she fell ill. Liu Zhu thought that they were trapped in the garden, and they couldn't buy medicine for the young lady, so they had to get some food for the young lady, otherwise the young lady would starve to death if she didn't die of the disease.
The young lady said that someone wanted her dead, so the imperial kitchen would definitely not give her rice, so this was the only way she could save the young lady. Liu Zhu had made up her mind, and endured hunger and cold until midnight behind the rockery outside the imperial kitchen. She heard that the eunuchs had some free time when they changed shifts, so she quietly slipped in. She didn't dare to touch anything that was visible, and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the rice bag. She randomly found a cloth bag to put the rice in, but she didn't dare to put more than two bowls of rice, and then wrapped a small bag of salt with her handkerchief. She looked for something inconspicuous in the imperial kitchen and secretly took a little. In a blink of an eye, the bag was full. When she saw that it was almost done, she quickly slipped out, and took the fire starter when she passed by the stove.
