The villain who never surrenders [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 121 Feeding
Su Xuxu was unconscious?
Rong Ling subconsciously asked, "How is she?"
"Don't worry, the empress is full of imperial physicians. I heard that there is no serious problem." Qinghe sighed, "You are so bold and sneaked into the hunting ground. Fortunately, the majesty's people just arrived before the empress fainted. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Rong Ling breathed a sigh of relief before feeling tired again.
The wound on her hand had been bandaged at some point. Fortunately, the assassin's hidden weapon was only drugged and not poisonous. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be as relaxed as I am now.
Qing He yawned: "Since you're awake, I'll go to sleep first, just wake me up if you have anything to do."
Rong Ling was also very sleepy, so he yawned, turned over and fell asleep facing the outside.
In a daze, Rong Ling felt as if someone was holding his arm, and lifted his sleeve to check the bandaged wound.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the person beside the bed dressed in white, with black hair tied in a crown, and her eyes still had some inexplicable meaning.
"Master Rong?" Rong Ling was a little surprised, and could not help but mock in his tone, "What wind brought you here?"
Rong Qingshan used to confront her tit for tat, but now she didn't say a word, but took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve: "This is the antidote..."
Rong Ling's eyes were alert, and after confirming that Rong Qingshan had no traps this time, he grabbed the medicine bottle beside his pillow.
She uncorked the bottle and poured it into her palm, only a round pill.
Just this one?
Rong Ling looked at Rong Qingshan with disdain again.
Although this person looks like a crown jade and looks like a human being, he is completely mean and mean.
As if reading her heart, Rong Qingshan's lips curled up: "As long as you take this antidote, your poison will be undone, and you will never commit another crime from now on, it's me..."
She paused: "For yesterday's apology."
It was fine if she didn't say it, but after she said that, Rong Ling remembered, if she hadn't insisted on finding Concubine Rong by herself, why would she have come here.
Rong Ling swallowed the antidote in one gulp, and was about to scold Rong Qingshan heartily, when the curtain of the tent was lifted suddenly, and a cold voice came: "It seems that this palace came at an inappropriate time, disturbing Lord Rong Shout out to the people in this palace."
Rong Ling followed the sound and saw that it was Su Xuxu.
Even if she couldn't see clearly against the light, Rong Ling could feel how weak Su Xuxu was after being injured, as if she was holding her breath to come forward.
When Su Xuxu woke up, the only person she wanted to see was Rong Ling, but what she didn't expect to see was the scene in front of her.
The woman's black hair was spread out, she was lying on the bed, talking with others on her back.
A man and a woman, palace servants and courtiers, in this kind of tent, it is naturally impossible to have any official discussions.
Su Xuxu held back the surging blood in his chest, and looked at Rong Qingshan with cold eyes: "If I remember correctly, Lord Rong shouldn't come to this kind of place?"
Rong Qingshan was not in a hurry. Kneeling and sitting on the carpet in front of the bed, she straightened her clothes, stood up and said in a circle: "I am sorry, the imperial concubine, but I accidentally lost my way between the tents and accidentally broke into it." , just asking Miss A Ling for directions."
"That's really careless." Su Xuxu smiled, "Lord Rong, be careful, there are traps everywhere in this hunting ground, don't accidentally fall for it."
She was clearly sarcastic, but Rong Qingshan acted as if she didn't hear it, and even said respectfully: "Thank you for reminding me, ma'am."
Su Xuxu snorted coldly, not wanting to confront her anymore, but walked directly in Rong Ling's direction.
Of course Rong Qingshan couldn't stay any longer, and left in a sensible manner.
Rong Ling saw that her gait was still a bit vain, apparently unable to do what she wanted, and unintentionally planned to get up to help her, but she didn't expect that Su Xuxu had already walked to the bed in the blink of an eye, and then leaned over and grabbed Rong Ling's wrist, and asked: "What is the relationship between you and Rong Qingshan?"
Her tone was tough, and Rong Ling frowned impatiently in an instant: "What does it have to do with you?"
Really getting more courageous, Su Xuxu snorted softly, but because her fingertips touched the warmth of Rong Ling's skin, the heart that had been hanging since waking up finally became at ease.
Her tone softened: "Rong Qingshan is not a kind person, stay away from him in the future."
Rong Ling agrees with this point, and she also intends not to have any contact with her in the future, but the focus at the moment doesn't seem to be this, Rong Ling looked at Su Xuxu who was clenching her wrist tightly and refused to let go: "Mother, it hurts Me." Su Xuxu paused, realizing that she was a little too strong due to the uncontrollable anger just now, and immediately loosened her fingers a little.
In this way, her movements are like gently rubbing Rong Ling's wrists, smoothing away the red marks that she accidentally left on her fair skin.
This subtle touch came along the skin, causing Rong Ling to feel a little uncomfortable, and she frowned slightly: "Your Majesty was injured just now, so she should rest well."
All in all, leave her alone.
Su Xuxu didn't know if she really misunderstood it, her eyes became a little warmer, and she played with Rong Ling's slender fingers happily: "Are you caring about me?"
Rong Ling couldn't help rolling his eyes.
Su Xuxu acted as if she didn't see it, and explained to herself: "What I suffered is just a skin injury, it's not a serious problem."
While talking, Qing He walked in with something in his hand, and hurriedly saluted after seeing the person at the bedside: "See the imperial concubine."
"Hmm..." Su Xuxu landed on the food plate in her hand, "What is this?"
"Returning to the mother, this is green vegetable porridge. Seeing that A Ling slept all night, the servant girl thought about making her some light food to fill her stomach."
"You are determined, remember to receive the reward when you return to the palace." Su Xuxu said, "Bring it here..."
Qing He took a few steps forward, Su Xuxu got up and picked up the vegetable porridge on the food plate, and scooped up a spoonful: "Open your mouth..."
This time not only Qing He, but even Rong Ling stared wide-eyed, unwilling to follow suit: "I only hurt my left hand..."
Su Xuxu didn't speak, the porcelain spoon was already brought to her lips, Rong Ling subconsciously opened her lips, and could not help but hiss lightly: "Hot!"
She frowned, sticking out the tip of her tongue to lick her burned lips.
Su Xuxu, who had never served anyone before, coughed unnaturally, blew on the porridge in the porcelain spoon again, and handed it to Rong Ling's lips again.
Rong Ling carefully touched the porridge in the spoon with his lips, making sure that the temperature was just right before swallowing it.
The way she ate was very cute, like a newborn lamb, Su Xuxu's eyes softened unconsciously.
Qing He had quietly left at some point, Rong Ling's empty stomach was filled with this bowl of porridge, and his eyelids started to fight again.
"Go to sleep..." Su Xuxu said, "I'm here..."
It was because of her that she couldn't sleep, Rong Ling muttered in her heart, but remembering that they had shared the same bed in Feishu Palace before, she simply closed her eyes and pretended that Su Xuxu didn't exist at all.
Before he knew it, Rong Ling really fell asleep.
Most of her face was covered by the quilt, and her long eyelashes covered her eyes like a small fan.
Really able to sleep no matter what the circumstances, Su Xuxu couldn't help chuckling, and brushed away the mosquitoes in the air with her hand.
The pasture is not as clean as the palace, and the place where the servants live is not as fragrant as the master's tent, so there are a lot of mosquitoes. Su Xuxu brushed them away, and in a blink of an eye, these annoying insects flew over again.
She waved the bugs away tirelessly, and now was the most relaxed time since entering the palace.
Until Linglong opened the door curtain and entered, she was stunned when she saw this scene: "Your Majesty..."
"What's the matter?" Su Xuxu lowered her voice, and the faint smile on her face turned into indifference in an instant.
"Your Majesty sent someone to tell you that the mastermind behind your assassination has been found, and let your empress go and confirm."
"who is it?"
Linglong said cautiously: "It is said that it is... Concubine Duan."
Rong Ling fell into a drowsy sleep, but was awakened by the sound, and asked after a moment of daze, "Concubine Duan?"
"Yes..." For some reason, although everyone is a slave, Linglong subconsciously respects her when she meets her.
"You rest first..." Su Xuxu got up, "I'll go and have a look."
Her tone was not to be questioned, and Rong Ling didn't bother to care anymore, so she rolled over and continued to sleep without a sound.
In the main tent, Concubine Duan, who was kneeling in front of the center, lost her previous dignified and generous, almost crying with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, this must be framed, and my concubine will never do such a rebellious thing."
"Enough!" Emperor Wen of Zhou patted the tea table beside him, "Concubine Duan, thanks to the fact that I thought you were a sensible person in the past to be able to take on the responsibility of being in charge of the harem, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless."
"The assassins have already admitted that the reward money did come from your palace, and there are all the witnesses and evidence, so why do you have to argue?"
"Your Majesty..." Concubine Duan walked forward on her knees, and the red hairpin between the temples swayed, "This concubine is willing to swear with her life, this is definitely not what this concubine did."
When Su Xuxu walked into the tent, what he saw was this scene. Apart from Concubine Duan, there was also the man in black who had stabbed him in the forest before kneeling on the ground.
It's just that one of them committed suicide when he was besieged by Zhou Wendi's men, leaving only this one alive.
She smiled slightly: "See Your Majesty..."
Emperor Wen of Zhou glanced at her: "The imperial concubine is not in good health, so I'd better sit down first."
"Yes..." Su Xuxu sat down in a side seat, and looked at Concubine Duan who was completely different from the past.
At the same time, Concubine Duan also looked at her. The moment their eyes met, the corners of Su Xuxu's lips curled up, and the sarcasm in her eyes was hard to ignore.
Concubine Duan's eyes widened, she came to her senses in an instant, pointed at Su Xuxu and said, "Your Majesty, it's her, she deliberately framed the concubine, and wanted to make the concubine fall out of favor in front of you..."
Su Xuxu stood up again, and said in a warm voice: "Your Highness is clearly aware, if this is really what the concubine did, why did you hurt your close maid?"
"Oh! What is a court lady?" Concubine Duan was so angry that she couldn't choose what to say, "You bitch, in order to keep the emperor's heart, you will do anything..."
"Enough!" Emperor Zhou Wen lowered his voice, looking at Concubine Duan with disappointment.
"Your Majesty, I still have something to say." Su Xuxu said.
"But it doesn't matter..."
"Earlier, Concubine Duan instructed her subordinates to do the incident of the concubine's maid's letter falling into the lake. If the Holy Majesty doesn't believe it, you can summon the palace servants beside her to inquire."
As soon as Su Xuxu finished speaking, Concubine Duan's face turned ashen, and she sat down on the ground powerlessly.
Obviously, even without summoning the palace servants, the answer is obvious.
As if he did not expect that the person next to his pillow would have such a real face for many years, Emperor Wen of Zhou sighed: "Concubine Duan, you really disappointed me."
"No..." Concubine Duan hurriedly shook her head, "Your Majesty, listen to my concubine's explanation. I just wanted to use that maid to teach Concubine Su a lesson, but what happened yesterday was definitely not my concubine's doing..."
"That's all..." Emperor Wen of Zhou was unwilling to listen any longer, "In view of the relationship between you and me for many years, I just take back your phoenix seal temporarily, and I will reflect on the rest after you return to the cold palace. "
Leng Gong?
Concubine Duan never thought that she would have today, she immediately raised her head in shock: "Your Majesty, you really believe in other people's slander, and I have served you for so many years, even if there is no credit, there is hard work..."
However, no one was listening to what she had to say, and Emperor Wen of Zhou waved his hand to the guards with some annoyance: "Take her away, remember to take good care of Concubine Duan, and don't let her do anything else."
Concubine Duan was suddenly gagged with a handkerchief, and could no longer howl.
The sobbing sound gradually drifted away as the guards took her away.
Su Xuxu, who had witnessed all this from the beginning to the end, did not change his face, as if he was out of it.
After a long time, she finally said: "Your Majesty clearly observes..."
Emperor Wen of Zhou rubbed his forehead tiredly, and leaned on the back of the chair: "It is because I trust her too much that today's incident happened. I have wronged you."
"With His Majesty here, the concubine doesn't feel wronged." Su Xuxu smiled, but his eyes were cold when he looked at Emperor Zhou Wen.
An autumn hunt, the concubine Duan was still in charge of the sixth palace when she went there, but her title had already been stripped when she returned to the palace, and she became an abandoned concubine who was thrown into the cold palace.
The weather is getting cooler, especially in the cold palace where no one cares about it.
The tree fell and the macaques scattered, and the maids and eunuchs who used to be with Concubine Duan turned around and went to join their new master, leaving her alone in the cold palace, crazy and crazy all day long, and she was not welcomed by the palace people.
Too lazy to care about what the concubine Duan was muttering and complaining about in the room, the palace servants just swept the fallen leaves in the yard, but suddenly a shadow fell in front of them.
She raised her head and saw Su Xuxu. She was wearing a moon white dress today, with a gentle smile on her face: "I'm here to see how Sister Concubine Duan is doing recently."
The palace people probably didn't expect that Concubine Duan was in such a state of desperation that someone would come to visit her, so she immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, please come in quickly, this servant is going to make tea."
"I'm sorry..." Su Xuxu said, and walked into the room.
The rooms in the cold palace are also decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, but due to years of disrepair, they are covered with cobwebs, dilapidated and leaking everywhere. When Su Xuxu walked in, she saw Concubine Duan sitting on the bed with her arms around her knees, muttering absently.
"Meet Concubine Duan..." Su Xuxu's tone was the same as before, and she had no intention of going to salute.
Concubine Duan seemed to come back to her senses, and looked at her as if she wanted to tear people apart: "You bitch! What are you doing here?"
Su Xuxu didn't care about her insults: "Of course I'm here to see how my sister is doing recently."
"Oh, I just fell into the tricks of you bastard because of my carelessness. When my brother who is far away from the frontier comes back, someone will avenge me."
Su Xuxu clicked her tongue softly: "It seems that my sister still doesn't understand why I am in such a situation today. Do you think I really have that great ability to frame you?"
"On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you intentionally hurt my palace servants. This trick of my palace is nothing more than borrowing flowers to offer Buddha."
Concubine Duan couldn't believe it: "It's nonsense! Who else would do such a thing except you?"
"Concubine Duan only needs to think about it and she will understand." Su Xuxu frowned, "It's just that you don't want to, and you dare not think about it."
Without waiting for Concubine Duan to speak, she continued: "The murderer's assassin was very skilled, but he didn't take my life. The hidden weapon was smeared with a stupor rather than a deadly poison. The Holy Majesty's guards appeared so In time, just in time to catch a living."
"It turns out that the mastermind behind the thief's confession is you, my sister. The money for physical evidence comes from your palace. You can plant assassins in the royal hunting grounds and steal money from your palace as physical evidence. My sister really thinks that this Does the palace have such a great ability?"
After she finished speaking, Concubine Duan's face lost all color: "You mean... Your Majesty is..."
"No!" She shook her head violently, and looked at Su Xuxu with tears in her eyes, "You don't want to provoke the relationship between Ben Gong and His Majesty. Your Majesty and Ben Gong have been in love for so many years, how could he treat me like this?"
"If you want to blame it, blame your good brother for holding great power, making the Holy Majesty feel jealous." Su Xuxu was in the middle of the room, playing with her nails, "And this palace is just a pawn in the grand scheme of the Holy Majesty. , why should my sister embarrass the wrong person?"
After saying these words, even if Concubine Duan wanted to pretend to be confused, she fully understood.
Her elder brother held the military power in his hand and supported himself in the frontier, so he might have already developed a heart of treason.
That's why the Holy Majesty took the opportunity to put himself in the cold palace, so as to give his brother an excuse to get angry, and then he will catch the turtle in the urn again.
It's really unpredictable, Concubine Duan never thought that her unreasonable disaster today was thanks to the person next to her pillow.
Unknowingly, Concubine Duan's face was covered with tears: "No...impossible, Jing Ming wouldn't treat me like this..."
Jingming is the name of the emperor, if it is not for those who are close to it, there is no way to know it.
That's all Su Xuxu said, watching her in pain with cold eyes, she just felt very tired.
She didn't come here out of good intentions, but Concubine Duan deliberately wanted to kill Mingshu, and even Rong Ling almost had an accident. She came here to tell Concubine Duan the truth on purpose, so that she would live in pain for the rest of her life , this is her punishment.
More importantly, Su Xuxu was not completely sure whether his judgment was correct.
Seeing Concubine Duan so crazy right now, it proves that his guess that the assassination was instigated by the emperor is close to ten.
Su Xuxu's eyes became more serious, and she smiled ironically.
It is really the most ruthless emperor's family. Emperor Wen of Zhou looked at gentle gentlemen on weekdays. How many people are easy to sit on the throne?But it's all just a show.
There was no need for Su Xuxu to stay here anymore. When she turned to leave, the palace servant just entered the room with the brewed tea, and asked in surprise, "Isn't the noble concubine staying a little longer?"
"No need..." Su Xuxu left a sentence before leaving, "Take care of Concubine Duan."
Since Qiushou came back, Rong Ling's life is much easier than usual. After all, she was injured in order to save the imperial concubine, so it is fair to be lazy.
In the entire Feishuyuan, Rong Ling's favorite place to stay is the small kitchen in the backyard.
Everyone was busy coming and going, no one cared about her at all, and it was warm in front of the stove, Rong Ling secretly buried two sweet potatoes in the fire as snacks, and no one said anything.
After coming and going, Mrs. Zhang in the kitchen became acquainted with her, and the two often chatted about something.
Rong Ling doesn't like to talk, but she is a good listener. Chef Zhang is very relieved to tell her all the gossip she has heard in the palace these years, and she is not worried that Rong Ling will spread it to the outside world.
As for Rong Ling, he listened absent-mindedly, while blowing on the ashes from the sweet potatoes in his hand to peel off the skin.
She took a bite of the sweet and soft baked sweet potato, and asked Chef Zhang, "Why do you cook so many dishes today?"
It has doubled in full weekdays.
"Did you forget what day it is today?" Chef Zhang winked at her, "The last time His Majesty was called away by Concubine Rong's people on the wedding night, shouldn't there be any trouble this time?"
Rong Ling's hand holding the sweet potato paused, feeling that it was boring.
Emperor Wen of Zhou took care of everything and worked diligently for the people. He only spent half of the time in the concubine's palace every month. In the past, the concubine Rong was charming, the concubine Li was charming, and the concubine Duan was considerate, so he seldom came to Feishu palace.
However, counting today, it happened to be two full months since Su Xuxu entered the palace. According to the tradition in the palace, he should stay overnight in Feishu Palace tonight.
Coupled with the fact that Concubine Duan was sent to the cold palace, it would probably be a lot more when he stayed in Feishu Palace in the future.
"Why don't you speak suddenly, girl?" Chef Zhang asked her, "Could it be that you were scalded by sweet potatoes?"
Rong Ling looked a little reluctant: "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly lost my appetite."
"It's okay if you can't eat it. After eating these things, the Holy Majesty and the Empress will definitely not touch a few chopsticks. We are lucky."
It's perfectly normal in the palace for the master to reward his servants with food that he can't finish eating.
Rong Ling frowned: "Forget it, I don't want to eat."
Chef Zhang was about to say something else, but suddenly there was an announcement from the eunuch outside: "The Holy Majesty is here——"
She immediately got busy with her work and asked the others in the kitchen, "Is the steamed fish ready?"
The people in the back kitchen were usually accompanied by oil fumes, so they could not kneel down in front of the emperor, but Rong Ling couldn't. She put down the sweet potato in her hand, wiped her hands casually on the side of her clothes, and went out.
"Participate in the Holy Majesty..." A crowd of people kneeled in front of Feishu Hall.
"Get up..." Emperor Zhou Wen waved his hand, and everyone dared to stand up. Qing He hurriedly went to tell the people in the kitchen to serve food, and a few maidservants followed Su Xuxu and Emperor Zhou Wen into the house.
Naturally, Rong Ling was also among them. Seeing Su Xuxu smiling gently, she asked the emperor to sit down at the dining table.
The hot dish was served immediately, and Su Xuxu picked up a piece of white and tender fish into Zhou Wendi's bowl: "Your Majesty, try this fish, and the kitchen staff said that it is a perch freshly caught in the river. They were sent to the palace before dawn, and the fish were still fresh when they arrived."
"My concubine has a heart." Emperor Zhou Wen naturally did not refuse, picked up chopsticks to taste, "It really tastes good."
The two talked to each other, like an ordinary couple with deep affection, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Su Xuxu seemed to think of something suddenly: "By the way, my concubine brewed some rice wine by herself a few days ago, would your majesty give it a try?"
Her attitude has become much closer than the alienation of the previous days.
Emperor Wen of Zhou was naturally willing to be served by beauties: "Alright, I would like to taste the concubine's craftsmanship."
Su Xuxu immediately dispatched his servants: "Linglong, don't you hurry up and bring me the rice wine I brewed?"
"Yes..." Linglong hurried out.
It was only then that Rong Ling realized that he didn't know when Su Xuxu still brewed wine.
She ignored the slight discomfort in her heart, just buried her head and looked at her toes, and listened to Su Xuxu talking with Emperor Wen of Zhou about trivial matters in the palace with a smile.
The room was filled with the smell of wine and vegetables, Su Xuxu coaxed Emperor Zhou Wen to drink one cup after another until he started to get drunk.
"Your Majesty?" Su Xuxu stretched out his hand and carefully waved it in front of Emperor Zhou Wen.
As soon as Emperor Wen of Zhou grasped her hand, he couldn't help but have some ambiguity in his tone: "What's the meaning of Aifei?"
"Your Majesty, you are drunk." Su Xuxu smiled stiffly, and calmly withdrew her hand, "Linglong, help Your Majesty go back to the bedroom to rest."
"Yes……"
Seeing that Su Xuxu seemed to have forgotten his identity, Rong Ling didn't intend to ask her to serve her at all, so he simply froze in place, and when the crowd surrounded Emperor Zhou Wen to the bedroom, he sneaked back to his own backyard.
Before leaving, she heard Su Xuxu's voice: "Your Majesty? Your Majesty? It seems that she is quite drunk, Linglong, go and bring me some sober soup."
When Rong Ling turned around the corridor, the voice was completely inaudible.
She held on to the railing, clutched her chest, and for some reason, retched.
It's a pity that Rong Ling vomited so much that his nose was sore, his eyes were almost filled with tears, but he still didn't spit out anything.
She couldn't figure out where her emotions came from, so she took a deep breath and went back to the side room alone.
The author has something to say: Rong Ling: Ugh——
This chapter has [-] words, which is equivalent to two chapters. It is a double update...
Rong Ling subconsciously asked, "How is she?"
"Don't worry, the empress is full of imperial physicians. I heard that there is no serious problem." Qinghe sighed, "You are so bold and sneaked into the hunting ground. Fortunately, the majesty's people just arrived before the empress fainted. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Rong Ling breathed a sigh of relief before feeling tired again.
The wound on her hand had been bandaged at some point. Fortunately, the assassin's hidden weapon was only drugged and not poisonous. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be as relaxed as I am now.
Qing He yawned: "Since you're awake, I'll go to sleep first, just wake me up if you have anything to do."
Rong Ling was also very sleepy, so he yawned, turned over and fell asleep facing the outside.
In a daze, Rong Ling felt as if someone was holding his arm, and lifted his sleeve to check the bandaged wound.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the person beside the bed dressed in white, with black hair tied in a crown, and her eyes still had some inexplicable meaning.
"Master Rong?" Rong Ling was a little surprised, and could not help but mock in his tone, "What wind brought you here?"
Rong Qingshan used to confront her tit for tat, but now she didn't say a word, but took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve: "This is the antidote..."
Rong Ling's eyes were alert, and after confirming that Rong Qingshan had no traps this time, he grabbed the medicine bottle beside his pillow.
She uncorked the bottle and poured it into her palm, only a round pill.
Just this one?
Rong Ling looked at Rong Qingshan with disdain again.
Although this person looks like a crown jade and looks like a human being, he is completely mean and mean.
As if reading her heart, Rong Qingshan's lips curled up: "As long as you take this antidote, your poison will be undone, and you will never commit another crime from now on, it's me..."
She paused: "For yesterday's apology."
It was fine if she didn't say it, but after she said that, Rong Ling remembered, if she hadn't insisted on finding Concubine Rong by herself, why would she have come here.
Rong Ling swallowed the antidote in one gulp, and was about to scold Rong Qingshan heartily, when the curtain of the tent was lifted suddenly, and a cold voice came: "It seems that this palace came at an inappropriate time, disturbing Lord Rong Shout out to the people in this palace."
Rong Ling followed the sound and saw that it was Su Xuxu.
Even if she couldn't see clearly against the light, Rong Ling could feel how weak Su Xuxu was after being injured, as if she was holding her breath to come forward.
When Su Xuxu woke up, the only person she wanted to see was Rong Ling, but what she didn't expect to see was the scene in front of her.
The woman's black hair was spread out, she was lying on the bed, talking with others on her back.
A man and a woman, palace servants and courtiers, in this kind of tent, it is naturally impossible to have any official discussions.
Su Xuxu held back the surging blood in his chest, and looked at Rong Qingshan with cold eyes: "If I remember correctly, Lord Rong shouldn't come to this kind of place?"
Rong Qingshan was not in a hurry. Kneeling and sitting on the carpet in front of the bed, she straightened her clothes, stood up and said in a circle: "I am sorry, the imperial concubine, but I accidentally lost my way between the tents and accidentally broke into it." , just asking Miss A Ling for directions."
"That's really careless." Su Xuxu smiled, "Lord Rong, be careful, there are traps everywhere in this hunting ground, don't accidentally fall for it."
She was clearly sarcastic, but Rong Qingshan acted as if she didn't hear it, and even said respectfully: "Thank you for reminding me, ma'am."
Su Xuxu snorted coldly, not wanting to confront her anymore, but walked directly in Rong Ling's direction.
Of course Rong Qingshan couldn't stay any longer, and left in a sensible manner.
Rong Ling saw that her gait was still a bit vain, apparently unable to do what she wanted, and unintentionally planned to get up to help her, but she didn't expect that Su Xuxu had already walked to the bed in the blink of an eye, and then leaned over and grabbed Rong Ling's wrist, and asked: "What is the relationship between you and Rong Qingshan?"
Her tone was tough, and Rong Ling frowned impatiently in an instant: "What does it have to do with you?"
Really getting more courageous, Su Xuxu snorted softly, but because her fingertips touched the warmth of Rong Ling's skin, the heart that had been hanging since waking up finally became at ease.
Her tone softened: "Rong Qingshan is not a kind person, stay away from him in the future."
Rong Ling agrees with this point, and she also intends not to have any contact with her in the future, but the focus at the moment doesn't seem to be this, Rong Ling looked at Su Xuxu who was clenching her wrist tightly and refused to let go: "Mother, it hurts Me." Su Xuxu paused, realizing that she was a little too strong due to the uncontrollable anger just now, and immediately loosened her fingers a little.
In this way, her movements are like gently rubbing Rong Ling's wrists, smoothing away the red marks that she accidentally left on her fair skin.
This subtle touch came along the skin, causing Rong Ling to feel a little uncomfortable, and she frowned slightly: "Your Majesty was injured just now, so she should rest well."
All in all, leave her alone.
Su Xuxu didn't know if she really misunderstood it, her eyes became a little warmer, and she played with Rong Ling's slender fingers happily: "Are you caring about me?"
Rong Ling couldn't help rolling his eyes.
Su Xuxu acted as if she didn't see it, and explained to herself: "What I suffered is just a skin injury, it's not a serious problem."
While talking, Qing He walked in with something in his hand, and hurriedly saluted after seeing the person at the bedside: "See the imperial concubine."
"Hmm..." Su Xuxu landed on the food plate in her hand, "What is this?"
"Returning to the mother, this is green vegetable porridge. Seeing that A Ling slept all night, the servant girl thought about making her some light food to fill her stomach."
"You are determined, remember to receive the reward when you return to the palace." Su Xuxu said, "Bring it here..."
Qing He took a few steps forward, Su Xuxu got up and picked up the vegetable porridge on the food plate, and scooped up a spoonful: "Open your mouth..."
This time not only Qing He, but even Rong Ling stared wide-eyed, unwilling to follow suit: "I only hurt my left hand..."
Su Xuxu didn't speak, the porcelain spoon was already brought to her lips, Rong Ling subconsciously opened her lips, and could not help but hiss lightly: "Hot!"
She frowned, sticking out the tip of her tongue to lick her burned lips.
Su Xuxu, who had never served anyone before, coughed unnaturally, blew on the porridge in the porcelain spoon again, and handed it to Rong Ling's lips again.
Rong Ling carefully touched the porridge in the spoon with his lips, making sure that the temperature was just right before swallowing it.
The way she ate was very cute, like a newborn lamb, Su Xuxu's eyes softened unconsciously.
Qing He had quietly left at some point, Rong Ling's empty stomach was filled with this bowl of porridge, and his eyelids started to fight again.
"Go to sleep..." Su Xuxu said, "I'm here..."
It was because of her that she couldn't sleep, Rong Ling muttered in her heart, but remembering that they had shared the same bed in Feishu Palace before, she simply closed her eyes and pretended that Su Xuxu didn't exist at all.
Before he knew it, Rong Ling really fell asleep.
Most of her face was covered by the quilt, and her long eyelashes covered her eyes like a small fan.
Really able to sleep no matter what the circumstances, Su Xuxu couldn't help chuckling, and brushed away the mosquitoes in the air with her hand.
The pasture is not as clean as the palace, and the place where the servants live is not as fragrant as the master's tent, so there are a lot of mosquitoes. Su Xuxu brushed them away, and in a blink of an eye, these annoying insects flew over again.
She waved the bugs away tirelessly, and now was the most relaxed time since entering the palace.
Until Linglong opened the door curtain and entered, she was stunned when she saw this scene: "Your Majesty..."
"What's the matter?" Su Xuxu lowered her voice, and the faint smile on her face turned into indifference in an instant.
"Your Majesty sent someone to tell you that the mastermind behind your assassination has been found, and let your empress go and confirm."
"who is it?"
Linglong said cautiously: "It is said that it is... Concubine Duan."
Rong Ling fell into a drowsy sleep, but was awakened by the sound, and asked after a moment of daze, "Concubine Duan?"
"Yes..." For some reason, although everyone is a slave, Linglong subconsciously respects her when she meets her.
"You rest first..." Su Xuxu got up, "I'll go and have a look."
Her tone was not to be questioned, and Rong Ling didn't bother to care anymore, so she rolled over and continued to sleep without a sound.
In the main tent, Concubine Duan, who was kneeling in front of the center, lost her previous dignified and generous, almost crying with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, this must be framed, and my concubine will never do such a rebellious thing."
"Enough!" Emperor Wen of Zhou patted the tea table beside him, "Concubine Duan, thanks to the fact that I thought you were a sensible person in the past to be able to take on the responsibility of being in charge of the harem, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless."
"The assassins have already admitted that the reward money did come from your palace, and there are all the witnesses and evidence, so why do you have to argue?"
"Your Majesty..." Concubine Duan walked forward on her knees, and the red hairpin between the temples swayed, "This concubine is willing to swear with her life, this is definitely not what this concubine did."
When Su Xuxu walked into the tent, what he saw was this scene. Apart from Concubine Duan, there was also the man in black who had stabbed him in the forest before kneeling on the ground.
It's just that one of them committed suicide when he was besieged by Zhou Wendi's men, leaving only this one alive.
She smiled slightly: "See Your Majesty..."
Emperor Wen of Zhou glanced at her: "The imperial concubine is not in good health, so I'd better sit down first."
"Yes..." Su Xuxu sat down in a side seat, and looked at Concubine Duan who was completely different from the past.
At the same time, Concubine Duan also looked at her. The moment their eyes met, the corners of Su Xuxu's lips curled up, and the sarcasm in her eyes was hard to ignore.
Concubine Duan's eyes widened, she came to her senses in an instant, pointed at Su Xuxu and said, "Your Majesty, it's her, she deliberately framed the concubine, and wanted to make the concubine fall out of favor in front of you..."
Su Xuxu stood up again, and said in a warm voice: "Your Highness is clearly aware, if this is really what the concubine did, why did you hurt your close maid?"
"Oh! What is a court lady?" Concubine Duan was so angry that she couldn't choose what to say, "You bitch, in order to keep the emperor's heart, you will do anything..."
"Enough!" Emperor Zhou Wen lowered his voice, looking at Concubine Duan with disappointment.
"Your Majesty, I still have something to say." Su Xuxu said.
"But it doesn't matter..."
"Earlier, Concubine Duan instructed her subordinates to do the incident of the concubine's maid's letter falling into the lake. If the Holy Majesty doesn't believe it, you can summon the palace servants beside her to inquire."
As soon as Su Xuxu finished speaking, Concubine Duan's face turned ashen, and she sat down on the ground powerlessly.
Obviously, even without summoning the palace servants, the answer is obvious.
As if he did not expect that the person next to his pillow would have such a real face for many years, Emperor Wen of Zhou sighed: "Concubine Duan, you really disappointed me."
"No..." Concubine Duan hurriedly shook her head, "Your Majesty, listen to my concubine's explanation. I just wanted to use that maid to teach Concubine Su a lesson, but what happened yesterday was definitely not my concubine's doing..."
"That's all..." Emperor Wen of Zhou was unwilling to listen any longer, "In view of the relationship between you and me for many years, I just take back your phoenix seal temporarily, and I will reflect on the rest after you return to the cold palace. "
Leng Gong?
Concubine Duan never thought that she would have today, she immediately raised her head in shock: "Your Majesty, you really believe in other people's slander, and I have served you for so many years, even if there is no credit, there is hard work..."
However, no one was listening to what she had to say, and Emperor Wen of Zhou waved his hand to the guards with some annoyance: "Take her away, remember to take good care of Concubine Duan, and don't let her do anything else."
Concubine Duan was suddenly gagged with a handkerchief, and could no longer howl.
The sobbing sound gradually drifted away as the guards took her away.
Su Xuxu, who had witnessed all this from the beginning to the end, did not change his face, as if he was out of it.
After a long time, she finally said: "Your Majesty clearly observes..."
Emperor Wen of Zhou rubbed his forehead tiredly, and leaned on the back of the chair: "It is because I trust her too much that today's incident happened. I have wronged you."
"With His Majesty here, the concubine doesn't feel wronged." Su Xuxu smiled, but his eyes were cold when he looked at Emperor Zhou Wen.
An autumn hunt, the concubine Duan was still in charge of the sixth palace when she went there, but her title had already been stripped when she returned to the palace, and she became an abandoned concubine who was thrown into the cold palace.
The weather is getting cooler, especially in the cold palace where no one cares about it.
The tree fell and the macaques scattered, and the maids and eunuchs who used to be with Concubine Duan turned around and went to join their new master, leaving her alone in the cold palace, crazy and crazy all day long, and she was not welcomed by the palace people.
Too lazy to care about what the concubine Duan was muttering and complaining about in the room, the palace servants just swept the fallen leaves in the yard, but suddenly a shadow fell in front of them.
She raised her head and saw Su Xuxu. She was wearing a moon white dress today, with a gentle smile on her face: "I'm here to see how Sister Concubine Duan is doing recently."
The palace people probably didn't expect that Concubine Duan was in such a state of desperation that someone would come to visit her, so she immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, please come in quickly, this servant is going to make tea."
"I'm sorry..." Su Xuxu said, and walked into the room.
The rooms in the cold palace are also decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, but due to years of disrepair, they are covered with cobwebs, dilapidated and leaking everywhere. When Su Xuxu walked in, she saw Concubine Duan sitting on the bed with her arms around her knees, muttering absently.
"Meet Concubine Duan..." Su Xuxu's tone was the same as before, and she had no intention of going to salute.
Concubine Duan seemed to come back to her senses, and looked at her as if she wanted to tear people apart: "You bitch! What are you doing here?"
Su Xuxu didn't care about her insults: "Of course I'm here to see how my sister is doing recently."
"Oh, I just fell into the tricks of you bastard because of my carelessness. When my brother who is far away from the frontier comes back, someone will avenge me."
Su Xuxu clicked her tongue softly: "It seems that my sister still doesn't understand why I am in such a situation today. Do you think I really have that great ability to frame you?"
"On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you intentionally hurt my palace servants. This trick of my palace is nothing more than borrowing flowers to offer Buddha."
Concubine Duan couldn't believe it: "It's nonsense! Who else would do such a thing except you?"
"Concubine Duan only needs to think about it and she will understand." Su Xuxu frowned, "It's just that you don't want to, and you dare not think about it."
Without waiting for Concubine Duan to speak, she continued: "The murderer's assassin was very skilled, but he didn't take my life. The hidden weapon was smeared with a stupor rather than a deadly poison. The Holy Majesty's guards appeared so In time, just in time to catch a living."
"It turns out that the mastermind behind the thief's confession is you, my sister. The money for physical evidence comes from your palace. You can plant assassins in the royal hunting grounds and steal money from your palace as physical evidence. My sister really thinks that this Does the palace have such a great ability?"
After she finished speaking, Concubine Duan's face lost all color: "You mean... Your Majesty is..."
"No!" She shook her head violently, and looked at Su Xuxu with tears in her eyes, "You don't want to provoke the relationship between Ben Gong and His Majesty. Your Majesty and Ben Gong have been in love for so many years, how could he treat me like this?"
"If you want to blame it, blame your good brother for holding great power, making the Holy Majesty feel jealous." Su Xuxu was in the middle of the room, playing with her nails, "And this palace is just a pawn in the grand scheme of the Holy Majesty. , why should my sister embarrass the wrong person?"
After saying these words, even if Concubine Duan wanted to pretend to be confused, she fully understood.
Her elder brother held the military power in his hand and supported himself in the frontier, so he might have already developed a heart of treason.
That's why the Holy Majesty took the opportunity to put himself in the cold palace, so as to give his brother an excuse to get angry, and then he will catch the turtle in the urn again.
It's really unpredictable, Concubine Duan never thought that her unreasonable disaster today was thanks to the person next to her pillow.
Unknowingly, Concubine Duan's face was covered with tears: "No...impossible, Jing Ming wouldn't treat me like this..."
Jingming is the name of the emperor, if it is not for those who are close to it, there is no way to know it.
That's all Su Xuxu said, watching her in pain with cold eyes, she just felt very tired.
She didn't come here out of good intentions, but Concubine Duan deliberately wanted to kill Mingshu, and even Rong Ling almost had an accident. She came here to tell Concubine Duan the truth on purpose, so that she would live in pain for the rest of her life , this is her punishment.
More importantly, Su Xuxu was not completely sure whether his judgment was correct.
Seeing Concubine Duan so crazy right now, it proves that his guess that the assassination was instigated by the emperor is close to ten.
Su Xuxu's eyes became more serious, and she smiled ironically.
It is really the most ruthless emperor's family. Emperor Wen of Zhou looked at gentle gentlemen on weekdays. How many people are easy to sit on the throne?But it's all just a show.
There was no need for Su Xuxu to stay here anymore. When she turned to leave, the palace servant just entered the room with the brewed tea, and asked in surprise, "Isn't the noble concubine staying a little longer?"
"No need..." Su Xuxu left a sentence before leaving, "Take care of Concubine Duan."
Since Qiushou came back, Rong Ling's life is much easier than usual. After all, she was injured in order to save the imperial concubine, so it is fair to be lazy.
In the entire Feishuyuan, Rong Ling's favorite place to stay is the small kitchen in the backyard.
Everyone was busy coming and going, no one cared about her at all, and it was warm in front of the stove, Rong Ling secretly buried two sweet potatoes in the fire as snacks, and no one said anything.
After coming and going, Mrs. Zhang in the kitchen became acquainted with her, and the two often chatted about something.
Rong Ling doesn't like to talk, but she is a good listener. Chef Zhang is very relieved to tell her all the gossip she has heard in the palace these years, and she is not worried that Rong Ling will spread it to the outside world.
As for Rong Ling, he listened absent-mindedly, while blowing on the ashes from the sweet potatoes in his hand to peel off the skin.
She took a bite of the sweet and soft baked sweet potato, and asked Chef Zhang, "Why do you cook so many dishes today?"
It has doubled in full weekdays.
"Did you forget what day it is today?" Chef Zhang winked at her, "The last time His Majesty was called away by Concubine Rong's people on the wedding night, shouldn't there be any trouble this time?"
Rong Ling's hand holding the sweet potato paused, feeling that it was boring.
Emperor Wen of Zhou took care of everything and worked diligently for the people. He only spent half of the time in the concubine's palace every month. In the past, the concubine Rong was charming, the concubine Li was charming, and the concubine Duan was considerate, so he seldom came to Feishu palace.
However, counting today, it happened to be two full months since Su Xuxu entered the palace. According to the tradition in the palace, he should stay overnight in Feishu Palace tonight.
Coupled with the fact that Concubine Duan was sent to the cold palace, it would probably be a lot more when he stayed in Feishu Palace in the future.
"Why don't you speak suddenly, girl?" Chef Zhang asked her, "Could it be that you were scalded by sweet potatoes?"
Rong Ling looked a little reluctant: "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly lost my appetite."
"It's okay if you can't eat it. After eating these things, the Holy Majesty and the Empress will definitely not touch a few chopsticks. We are lucky."
It's perfectly normal in the palace for the master to reward his servants with food that he can't finish eating.
Rong Ling frowned: "Forget it, I don't want to eat."
Chef Zhang was about to say something else, but suddenly there was an announcement from the eunuch outside: "The Holy Majesty is here——"
She immediately got busy with her work and asked the others in the kitchen, "Is the steamed fish ready?"
The people in the back kitchen were usually accompanied by oil fumes, so they could not kneel down in front of the emperor, but Rong Ling couldn't. She put down the sweet potato in her hand, wiped her hands casually on the side of her clothes, and went out.
"Participate in the Holy Majesty..." A crowd of people kneeled in front of Feishu Hall.
"Get up..." Emperor Zhou Wen waved his hand, and everyone dared to stand up. Qing He hurriedly went to tell the people in the kitchen to serve food, and a few maidservants followed Su Xuxu and Emperor Zhou Wen into the house.
Naturally, Rong Ling was also among them. Seeing Su Xuxu smiling gently, she asked the emperor to sit down at the dining table.
The hot dish was served immediately, and Su Xuxu picked up a piece of white and tender fish into Zhou Wendi's bowl: "Your Majesty, try this fish, and the kitchen staff said that it is a perch freshly caught in the river. They were sent to the palace before dawn, and the fish were still fresh when they arrived."
"My concubine has a heart." Emperor Zhou Wen naturally did not refuse, picked up chopsticks to taste, "It really tastes good."
The two talked to each other, like an ordinary couple with deep affection, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Su Xuxu seemed to think of something suddenly: "By the way, my concubine brewed some rice wine by herself a few days ago, would your majesty give it a try?"
Her attitude has become much closer than the alienation of the previous days.
Emperor Wen of Zhou was naturally willing to be served by beauties: "Alright, I would like to taste the concubine's craftsmanship."
Su Xuxu immediately dispatched his servants: "Linglong, don't you hurry up and bring me the rice wine I brewed?"
"Yes..." Linglong hurried out.
It was only then that Rong Ling realized that he didn't know when Su Xuxu still brewed wine.
She ignored the slight discomfort in her heart, just buried her head and looked at her toes, and listened to Su Xuxu talking with Emperor Wen of Zhou about trivial matters in the palace with a smile.
The room was filled with the smell of wine and vegetables, Su Xuxu coaxed Emperor Zhou Wen to drink one cup after another until he started to get drunk.
"Your Majesty?" Su Xuxu stretched out his hand and carefully waved it in front of Emperor Zhou Wen.
As soon as Emperor Wen of Zhou grasped her hand, he couldn't help but have some ambiguity in his tone: "What's the meaning of Aifei?"
"Your Majesty, you are drunk." Su Xuxu smiled stiffly, and calmly withdrew her hand, "Linglong, help Your Majesty go back to the bedroom to rest."
"Yes……"
Seeing that Su Xuxu seemed to have forgotten his identity, Rong Ling didn't intend to ask her to serve her at all, so he simply froze in place, and when the crowd surrounded Emperor Zhou Wen to the bedroom, he sneaked back to his own backyard.
Before leaving, she heard Su Xuxu's voice: "Your Majesty? Your Majesty? It seems that she is quite drunk, Linglong, go and bring me some sober soup."
When Rong Ling turned around the corridor, the voice was completely inaudible.
She held on to the railing, clutched her chest, and for some reason, retched.
It's a pity that Rong Ling vomited so much that his nose was sore, his eyes were almost filled with tears, but he still didn't spit out anything.
She couldn't figure out where her emotions came from, so she took a deep breath and went back to the side room alone.
The author has something to say: Rong Ling: Ugh——
