The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 709
The air condensed into a pool of stagnant water, and the coughing sound from Lin Lan's throat from time to time was like gravel thrown into the lake, causing layers of ripples.

The emperor hugged Lin Lan, the tears in his eyes turned warm yellow by the candlelight.

He just looked at Lin Lan like this for a long time before calling softly: "Lan'er, I never blamed you."

Hearing this sentence, Lin Lan burst into tears, and sobbed, "Thank you, my concubine, the emperor. With the emperor's words, even if I go, my concubine's heart will be at ease."

With some difficulty, she stretched out her hand and stroked the slightly haggard cheek of the emperor: "The emperor has haggarded a lot. The concubine understands that the elder sister's matter caused a commotion in the previous court and made the emperor anxious."

"Ignore other things, your body is the most important thing."

Lin Lan said softly: "The concubine does not want to see the emperor in trouble, nor does she want to see her sister being wronged and having nowhere to appeal. The concubine has a last wish and hopes that the emperor will fulfill it."

When the emperor heard her words 'last wish' fell into a deep voice, he felt sad and comforted him: "Don't talk nonsense, I won't allow you to have trouble."

"I know, I'm dying soon." Lin Lan's voice became weaker and weaker: "There is no taboo anymore. In the past, the concubine committed a felony, the emperor changed the identity of the concubine for the concubine, settled the criticism, and kept the concubine by the emperor's side. Concubine Petition today, I hope the emperor will switch the identity of the concubine and the sister after the death of the concubine. In this way, the emperor is worried, and the predicament of the sister can be solved immediately."

The emperor saw that she was still thinking about him like this, and he burst into tears: "Don't say that, you will be fine, and Wan'er will be fine. I am here, I am"

Lin Lan stroked the emperor's eyes, and said distressedly: "Looking at the bruises under the eyes of the emperor, I think it has been a long time since I slept well? The concubine's wish is to hope that the emperor and sister will be happy. If the emperor should not let this matter go, Don't you want the ministers and concubines to die in peace?"

The emperor was stunned, thinking about what Lin Lan said.

Indeed, this is a good way for Wanyu and herself to solve the current predicament.

But how could he have the heart to make such a decision when Lin Lan was still alive?

Lin Lan wiped away the tears from the corners of the emperor's eyes, and said with a smile: "The concubine understands what the emperor is afraid of. If the concubine's child can become a sister's child, I believe it will be very good for the concubine. Your majesty, the concubine is so tired , I don’t have the energy to talk anymore. You should be my concubine, will you be my concubine?”

"Lan'er." The emperor was silent for a moment, his eyes enveloping Lin Lan softly like mist: "I answer you, I answer you." He moved gently so that Lin Lan lay down on her body, and said softly: "You are tired Now, just take a rest, I will accompany you, okay?"

Lin Lan quietly nodded, quietly held the emperor's hand in her palm, and fell asleep peacefully.

On the morning of the second day, when the emperor came to court, he met Wannai who had been waiting outside the palace all morning.

The two of them had a sleepless night, and their four eyes were swollen like hearts.

The emperor patted her on the shoulder to appease her.

Wanyu said in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, how is Lin Lan?"

The emperor sighed: "It hurt all night before I fell asleep. The previous court was busy, and I had to rush to listen to the government. You stay with Concubine De and talk to her more."

Respectfully sending the emperor out of the palace, Wan Yu moved very lightly when returning to the bedroom, for fear of disturbing Lin Lan's peaceful sleep.

But when she came, Lin Lan stared at herself with a pair of tired eyes and a smile.

"Are you awake?" Wanyu stepped forward to hold Linlan's hand, then took up the soup that was warming on the stove, put it on her lips and blew gently, and helped Linlan get up when it was milder: "Drink the medicine quickly." gone."

Lin Lan took the bowl and put it aside, shook her head and said, "The medicine is too bitter. I don't want to suffer any more."

After a while, she said again: "Sister, I told the Emperor about that matter yesterday, and he agreed."

Wan Yu nodded: "So you may recover from your illness with peace of mind?"

"It's An Xin, I don't need to recuperate anymore." Lin Lan fixed her eyes on the snow outside the Ling window, and said with a smile: "Sister, I slept for an hour last night, and I dreamed of Yinzuo. He smiled at me, Yelling for me to hug him."

"I want to hug him again."

Lin Lan was extremely tired, her voice gradually weakened, her eyes became less sad and more hopeful.

"Sister, I have troubled you many times in my life, and I find it extremely annoying. It's hard for my sister, she has always tolerated me along the way."

Wanyu looked at her with a smile, shook her head and said, "I want to thank you for always being by my side. You have walked such a long distance with me."

Lin Lan also smiled: "I can't watch my child grow up, if my sister watches, I will watch too."

She took Wanyu's hand and exhorted softly: "Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Yi have gradually developed ambitions. In the past, Luo Fu, Ru Ge, and Yu Wan all became restless. The road ahead , is still dangerous. Sister, you can no longer be gentle and kind to them. I see that you are willing to let go of your compassion and protect yourself, and I am very relieved."

Gradually she bent down and lay peacefully on the couch, her panting became more and more heavy, hitting Wanyu's ears one after another.

"Sister, I'm tired and I want to sleep for a while." She said, closing her eyes, with a smile on her lips: "Just for a while, remember to call me. When I regain my energy, you stay with me , go to another snow scene, go to see it again.”

Before she finished speaking, her chapped and dry lips gradually closed.

"Lin Lan, take a good rest. From now on, you won't be tired anymore."

As soon as the words fell, Wan Lai's tears dripped on Lin Lan's slightly swollen wrist, which was still clutching her.

She slowly put Lin Lan's hand into the quilt, carefully tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and then lay on her side, beside Lin Lan.

She closed her eyes, endured the heart-piercing pain, her throat was bitter, and she burst into tears.

It was as if she had returned to the stable time when she lived with Lin Lan in the same palace when the emperor overhauled the Changchun Palace a few years ago.

The two often sleep together under the quilt, with their ears attached to each other, and they have endless thoughts about girls.

"Sister, you said that in the future, the emperor will grow old, and we will also grow old, and we will not be able to walk anymore, so we don't have to worry about how to avoid bedtime every day. At that time, you and I will already have a lot of children and grandchildren, and we have to be like today. As usual, two old women who are more than seventy years old are lying on the same couch, talking endlessly to each other. At that time, others are also getting old together, and this endless fight has also seen an end. Nothing to do , Wouldn’t it be nice for you and me to visit the garden to enjoy the flowers, and entertain our grandchildren?”

"It's good for you, you only think about good things. You don't sleep well, you always squeeze me, and you wish I could fall on the couch. When I'm old, my arms, legs and feet are brittle like sugar cane, and you'll squeeze me into the couch, and I won't be able to break it." Go? If that’s the case, I won’t obey.”

Thinking this way, Wanyu softly said to Lin Lan who was beside her, "I never thought that we would grow old so quickly."

A word fell, no one responded, and there was no sound.

Outside the Ling window, the snow fell more and more densely, drowning the mournful and mournful cries into a blanket of whiteness.

On the third day of November in the 33rd year of Kangxi, the concubine Wu Ya died in Yonghe Palace.

In addition, future chapters will mainly revolve around the nine sons seizing the throne during the Kangxi period. All the plots involved in the unrest in the harem are described according to historical facts, but the struggle for imperial power has become a game of chess for the heroine, which does not affect the historical facts.
