An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Chapter 216 Awakening

Zhen Huan refused to admit it no matter what, which made the Queen speechless.

But the emperor just sat there and said nothing, making himself look like an aggressive and poisonous queen.

Zhen Huan once saved the emperor's life. I'm afraid that now in the emperor's eyes, Zhen Huan is more worthy of his cherishment than before.

She had even gotten rid of Rouze's shadow, allowing the emperor to truly see Zhen Huan.

When the Queen was looking at Zhen Huan, the Emperor was also looking at Zhen Huan.

The two of them feel the same now. Zhen Huan is Zhen Huan, and Rou Ze is Rou Ze. They are two completely unrelated individuals.

Zhen Huan is indulgent and tenacious, smart and ruthless enough. Rou would never do such a thing as putting someone else's name under the heel of their shoe for a lifetime.

But this Zhen Huan...it is actually possible for her to do it.

After all, Anpin's first child was born because of her cruel prayers.

"Your Majesty..." The Queen sighed deeply. She stopped talking about the evidence and instead talked about Zhen Huan's admiration for the Emperor. "Noble Lady Xu has been favored by the Emperor since she entered the palace. She is indeed talented and has surpassed the new sisters in the palace.

Concubine An was favored by the emperor for two days because of her kindness and gentleness, but she was ultimately no match for Concubine Xu. "

The Queen sighed at this point, and her eyes fell on Zhen Huan, "But who could have thought that Concubine Xu lost her child, and in order to pray for the child, Concubine An also lost her child.

But the sisters in the harem also knew that Concubine Xu did this wrong thing because she was too sad.

Even Concubine An did not have any conflict with Concubine Xu over this matter."

Zhen Huan wanted to say something, but the Queen raised her hand to interrupt her, "Later, Concubine Tian and Concubine Hui both lost their children because of Concubine Xu.

To be honest, I know that jealousy is human nature, but if you are too cruel, you will lose the way of being a human being.

It is for this reason that the emperor punished you to go to Baohua Palace to reflect on yourself and pray for those children.

Later, you were hurt because of Concubine Hua, so you paid back for your past mistakes."

In her words, the Queen Mother was talking about Zhen Huan's jealousy.

Whether these things are really related to Zhen Huan or false, they have now been concluded. Even if Zhen Huan wants to refute them, she can't say it.

At this moment, her face was a little red, perhaps because of anger.

“Although Concubine An has a daughter now, she still cannot compare to you in terms of favor.

You say you, hey... why do you do this?"

The queen sighed as if she was disappointed in her husband and glanced at the emperor tentatively.

After all, she was afraid that the emperor would vent his anger on herself because of what she said in public.

Fortunately, the emperor's expression did not change. He stared into Zhen Huan's eyes, and no one knew what the two were communicating in silence.

"I have never done these things." Zhen Huan lowered her eyes and shook her head, still refusing to admit it. "Especially this so-called nightmare technique. I know that the emperor hates these things the most and will never do them."

"So, Concubine Xu is also unwilling to acknowledge these evidences?"

Seeing Zhen Huan nod, the Queen was helpless. It seemed that without a witness, there was no way to make Zhen Huan admit her mistake honestly.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, there is only one way."

Since Zhen Huan refused to admit it, the only option was to send the palace maids around her to the Ministry of Punishment.

There may indeed be wrongful convictions under severe punishment, but it can also pry open the mouth of a stubborn person and make her tell the truth.

"Your Majesty, under severe punishment, we will never get the truth.

Please think twice, Your Majesty, and don’t send someone to the Ministry of Punishment so easily.”

Zhen Huan didn't want anyone around her to be thrown into the Ministry of Punishment again. The punishments there were too severe and few people could endure it.

By then, they would most likely tell others about things they had not done and blame themselves for An Lingrong's illness.

Then all the words I said today would be in vain.

"Moreover, most of the palace maids are from the Eight Banners, so how can they be punished at will?"

At this moment, the emperor finally showed some reaction. He twisted the beads in his hand, his eyes passed over Zhen Huan and fell on Su Peisheng, "Su Peisheng, first go and interrogate all the palace servants in Yuediyunju.

If we can't find out, we'll send him to the Ministry of Punishment and torture him thoroughly."

"emperor!"

"The slave obeys."

Before Zhen Huan could open her mouth to comfort her again, Su Peisheng had already taken his people out.

The emperor did not wait in Yuedi Yunju. Perhaps it was because what the queen said did make him a little unhappy. The emperor just turned away without saying a word to the queen.

Because Su Peisheng stayed in Yuedi Yunju to investigate the case, only Xiao Xiazi followed the emperor.

He rarely had such an opportunity to serve the emperor alone, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should say a few words of comfort to the emperor.

Xiao Xiazi muttered to himself that it would be great if his master was here. When he looked up, he saw the emperor standing there, looking at something.

As soon as he saw the emperor standing in the sun, Xiao Xiazi immediately went over with an umbrella to help shield the emperor from the scorching sun.

"Do you know how Concubine An is doing now?"

"In reply to the emperor, Concubine An is still in a coma all day.

According to Imperial Physician He, Concubine An has no response to external stimuli and the medicine cannot be used.

If he continues to lie like this for a long time, even if he wakes up one day, the Imperial Hospital will be powerless to save him."

The emperor frowned, "It's only been a short time, how could it be so serious?"

“After finding this thing in Yuedi Yunju, I followed your instructions and reported the situation to the abbot.

He said it was this nightmare town... Well, it was too vicious. It trampled on Concubine An's birthday, which meant it regarded her as a villain and wanted to send her to the underworld.

Then they pressed her with that dirty thing, hoping that she would not be able to see the bright way to escape to heaven in the underworld, and would only be eaten by thousands of little ghosts.

They also said that this was a method used to deal with those evil people who killed people and robbed people. Ordinary people would never use such vicious methods. "

Xiao Xiazi shook his head. He had a good impression of Ling Rong to begin with, so he would naturally speak up for her when she was mentioned.

"Plus, Concubine An is already weak. Having her birth date suppressed for an hour is like being thrown into the gates of hell for a month. How can she withstand such cruel treatment?"

The emperor originally thought it was a trivial matter, but after hearing what Xiao Xiazi said, he became a little worried.

"Go to Shuimu Mingse and see Concubine An."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Xiazi agreed loudly. He called out to the others, "Move quickly and go to Shuimu Mingse."

Fortunately, Yuedi Yunju was not too far from Shuimu Mingse. The emperor and his entourage hurried over and heard Youning's crying.

Even though the emperor doesn't like Lingrong that much, he truly loves Youning.

As soon as he heard the child crying pitifully, he immediately quickened his pace and rushed to the main hall.

"What's wrong? Why is the princess crying like this?"

Xiao Xiazi followed in. He knew that the emperor should not scold him without reason, so he started questioning first.

Fanglin immediately knelt down holding the princess, and she was still patting Youning gently with her hands, "To answer the emperor's question, the princess has not been able to see the queen for many days. The mother and daughter have been separated for too long, and she cried so pitifully just now."

Fanglin was originally the emperor's person, so the emperor still believed what she said to some extent.

Besides, Lingrong had indeed been bedridden and unconscious for too long, and the emperor knew that the child missed her mother, so it was normal for her to cry.

"Get up." The emperor sighed. He took Youning from Fanglin's arms and gently coaxed the crying child.

Youning was still crying. She was still young and couldn't tell whether the one holding her was the Emperor or Fanglin.

There was only one mother whom she was most familiar with. She could hear the heartbeat that made her feel at ease and was sure that it was her mother.

Now that I haven’t heard it for a long time, I was naturally scared and cried pitifully.

While coaxing her, the emperor carried Youning to the inner hall to visit Lingrong.

It was not until she went to Lingrong's side that Youning gradually stopped crying. Perhaps it was because she heard the familiar voice and smelled the familiar smell that made her feel at ease.

The emperor thought that the child recognized him as her father, and he actually felt a little happy in his heart.

"Doctor He, is Concubine An feeling better now?"

He Anming looked at Youning in the emperor's arms, and was stunned for a moment before replying, "Your Majesty, Concubine An is still the same as before. Even acupuncture with golden needles cannot wake her up."

"Now that the thing that endangered Concubine An has been found, her condition will probably get much better."

The emperor sat beside the couch and reached out to touch Lingrong's face.

He suddenly remembered to give Lingrong a title. According to the words of the abbot, once the title was given, Concubine An would wake up.

But, what word should I choose for this title?

“The abbot said that your birth date was pressed under dirty water, and you cannot see the light of day, so you are trapped in the underworld and suffer.

Then I will grant you the title of Sheng, so that you can hold your head high and crown the three mountains, and overlook the rising sun.

Wake up soon, Youning and I are waiting for you."

The word "Sheng" is rarely used as a title for empresses or concubines. It is because anyone who sees this word thinks it is suitable for men.

Indeed, the titles of concubines in the palace, Qi, Hui, Hua, Xin, Tian and even Xu, are all compliments on the women's character or appearance.

Only the word "Sheng" has nothing in common with Lingrong.

But "Sheng" means "Ming", which means bright and blazing. The emperor always felt that Lingrong must like sunshine very much.

Lingrong was still lying on the couch, but Youning was tired from crying and fell asleep obediently.

The emperor placed the child next to Lingrong, gently touched the child's forehead, and then stood up and left.

That night, the news that the emperor had bestowed the title spread throughout the harem, and Lingrong also regained consciousness and became completely sober that night.

When Lingrong woke up, she saw Youning lying beside her. Youning looked around with his eyes wide open, and only when he saw Lingrong did he chuckle with joy.

Lingrong was very happy to see her child as soon as she opened her eyes. She moved Youning closer to her, bent down and kissed Youning on the forehead.

"Why is Youning sleeping next to mother? Are you afraid to sleep alone? That's why Zhaoshui brought you here."

Youning naturally couldn't answer, but Zhaoshui heard Lingrong's movement and walked in with water.

"The young lady finally woke up. She slept for so many days, and the princess was frightened."

Lingrong took the water and drank it in big gulps to moisten her dry throat.

"I slept for so many days," Ling Rong cleared her throat twice and felt that her throat was finally much better. "Did you find out why I fainted during this period?"

"I found it."

Zhaoshui explained the whole story in detail, and when she talked about how it was discovered in Yuedi Yunju, she was so angry that she couldn't help but curse Concubine Xu.

“I don’t know what the young lady owes her, and she has hurt people time and time again.

It can't be a revenge from the previous life, can it? "

Lingrong hummed, and inexplicably felt as if her heart was being poked by the water.

Zhaoshui didn't pay much attention to Lingrong's expression. She continued to talk about the title bestowed on Lingrong by the emperor. It seemed that it was because of this that Lingrong woke up tonight.

“By the way, young lady, Doctor He is still in Shuimu Mingse.

Should we ask him to come in and check the young lady's pulse to see if there are any other problems with her body?"

Ling Rong was a little surprised to hear that He Anming was still guarding Shuimu Mingse. After all, after the incident between Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu, the emperor did not allow the imperial physician to stay in the palaces of the concubines for too long.

He Anming actually stayed in the palace, which was bound to arouse the emperor's suspicion.

"The emperor has agreed to Dr. He staying in Shuimu Mingse, so you don't have to worry."

Zhaoshui comforted Lingrong and let down the bed curtains, "Then let this servant call Imperial Doctor He in."

Ling Rong then nodded. She patted You Ning and half leaned back waiting for He Anming to come in.

After all, they were in the inner room, and He Anming did not look at the couch even through the curtain.

It was not until Lingrong stretched out her hand that he put on the handkerchief and began to feel Lingrong's pulse.

After a long while, he put away the handkerchief and said, "My lady is a little weak now, but it is also because she has not eaten well for many days.

Now the young master has woken up, and after two more days of rest, he will be back to normal. "

Behind the curtain, Ling Rong's voice seemed to be much more hazy. She retracted her wrist and asked after a long while, "Doctor He, was the Empress like this at that time?"

He Anming thought for a while and said, "It's almost the same situation. Before the scarecrow was found, the queen was also in a coma all day.

I am a doctor and I don't believe in these supernatural things. But after encountering them twice, I have no choice but to believe them.

It seems that Your Majesty needs to be careful in the future."

This kind of trick is hard to avoid no matter how careful you are.

Ling Rong secretly sighed. In fact, she had heard a lot of words like "take precautions in advance".

But a thief can only steal for a thousand days, but she can't guard against thieves for a thousand days. She can guard against those spices and herbs, but how can she guard against these nightmare spells?

However... most of the magic in this world is fake. Now that he can harm himself and the queen to this extent, the person behind the scenes is really capable.

Lingrong just didn't believe that she couldn't find this person.
