married daughter

Chapter 365 Chapter 455~456
When Ruan Yunting was dressed properly, a gorgeous carriage with red tassel canopy had already been prepared outside, and Jun Lanzhou was wearing a black brocade and plain cotton cloak, and she was standing beside the carriage holding Yanying, and she was kissing Yanying's mane affectionately. , talking to it in a low voice, Yan Ying seemed to be able to understand human words, stomping his front hooves and snorting as if responding.

Seeing this scene, Ruan Yunting quickened her pace funny: "Lan Zhou, what are you doing?"

Jun Lanzhou turned around when he heard the words, and the black hair that was tied high behind his head flung out a graceful arc, and his handsome face showed a captivating sunny smile: "I haven't ridden it for a long time, communicate with it, so that I don't have to ride it later." I fell."

The white snow, the beautiful boy in black, the black horse with shiny fur, and the antique scenery of the carved gallery behind them, all these are like a three-dimensional wonderful painting.Ruan Yunting narrowed her eyes and smiled, quickened her pace and trotted to Jun Lanzhou, with the snow-white fox fur spread out behind her.

Jun Lanzhou hastily let go of the rein and came up to her, grabbed her arms and said, "Why are you so anxious, are you afraid that I won't wait for you? Fall carefully."

"Lan Zhou." Ruan Yunting coquettishly put her arms around Jun Lanzhou's waist, her cheeks pressed against the cold cloth: "I want to ride a horse with you."

Jun Lanzhou lowered her head, looked at Ruan Yunting, who was like a kitten, and stroked her head lovingly, "How can I do that? It's freezing cold, don't play around with the cold, it's not fun to be sick."

Ruan Yunting looked up at him, blinking pitifully: "But I want to ride a horse with you, Lan Zhou." The last name was soft to the bone.

Jun Lanzhou's heart has been softened for a long time. Seeing that she is so persistent, no one will let her wish come true. Without saying a word, she holds her waist with both hands, and puts her on the horse's back to sit sideways. Yan Ying seems unhappy and neighs Stamp back and forth.Jun Lanzhou fed it a piece of pine nut candy, and when Yan Ying settled down after chewing, he also got on the horse.

Chanjuan stood beside the carriage and said, "Princess, what about the servants if you ride a horse?"

"Go back, I'll give you a vacation, you don't have to wait on me anymore." Ruan Yunting said with a smile, Jun Lanzhou had already pulled the cloak around Ruan Yunting, trapped her between her arms, and clamped her in the belly of the horse.Yan Ying flew out like a black lightning bolt, Ruan Yunting exclaimed in shock, and hugged Jun Lanzhou's thin waist.

Angela followed Joshua and several congregants of the church and stood outside the west gate. From a distance, one person galloped towards the other. Boat.

Angela waved her hands joyfully: "Brother Lanzhou, I knew you would come to see me off." But just after she finished speaking, she could clearly see Ruan Yun who was protected like a treasure in front of Jun Lanzhou. Ting.

Angela's face elongated, and she put down her hands angrily.Seeing this, Joshua and Ya Ge looked at each other and laughed.

Arriving at the front, Jun Lanzhou pulled the reins and was about to dismount Ruan Yunting, but Ruan Yunting slid off the horse first, and greeted Joshua and Ya Ge: "Hi, both of you."

Joshua and Ya Ge hurriedly stroked their chests and returned the salute: "Hello, Your Royal Highness."

Angela rolled her eyes angrily, and said bluntly, "What are you doing here!"

"Knowing that you are going back to China, I came here specially to see you off." Ruan Yunting ignored Angela's hostility at all, smiling and maintaining a ladylike demeanor.

The more she smiled naturally, the more unhappy Angela looked at it. She simply bypassed Ruan Yunting and ran to Jun Lanzhou to hold his arm: "Brother Lanzhou, Angela is leaving, you Will you miss me?" There was water mist in the big glazed eyes.

In Jun Lanzhou's eyes, she was always a lonely and strong little sister. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Of course you will. After you return to China, you have to take good care of yourself. Even if you don't have a chance to meet in the future, I will remember that there are people in the distance." You are such a sister."

Hearing his sad words, Angela held back tears and said in a nasal voice: "Brother Lanzhou, do you really want to take me in? I really don't want to leave."

At the time of parting, in the wilderness, Angela's lonely eyes softened the heart, and her life experience made people feel distressed.But Jun Lanzhou can tell the difference between seriousness and seriousness, knowing that Angela has deep hostility towards Ruan Yunting, there is no reason to keep her.

"Sorry Angela, I've made it very clear to you."

Angela was really completely desperate at this time.Looking at the person next to him who was wearing snow-white fox fur and carved jade, he pursed his lips jealously.

Joshua urged: "Angela, we have to leave."

Angela knew that she had to leave, and it was useless to cry at this time, no matter what, even if she left, she would never make Ruan Yunting feel better.

"Understood." Joshua answered meekly, and just after taking a step away from Jun Lanzhou, she suddenly turned around and stood on tiptoe to kiss Jun Lanzhou's lips.

Jun Lanzhou was unprepared, and realized that her purpose was to dodge, even if she turned away, she still kissed her to the corner of her mouth.

"Angela!" Joshua reprimanded, although kissing is nothing in Dayi Country, but now in Daliang Country, Bert and Ruan Yunting are lovers, she, a traditional Liang Country woman, will definitely be angry.

Joshua took Angela by the arm and pushed her into the carriage.

Angela smiled triumphantly, raised the car curtain and looked at Ruan Yunting provocatively, then waved to Jun Lanzhou: "Brother Lanzhou, Angela will miss you forever!"

Jun Lanzhou's face was stiff, and his face was already red.

Seeing the carriage going away, Ruan Yunting eagerly explained: "Ting'er, me."

Ruan Yunting frowned and said nothing.

Jun Lanzhou rubbed the corner of her mouth with her cuff: "I didn't expect her to be like this, Ting'er, I have nothing with her at all, don't get me wrong."

Seeing that Jun Lanzhou was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and his forehead was sweating in such a cold day, Ruan Yunting finally couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

Seeing her bright smile, not a little bit angry, Jun Lanzhou instantly understood that she was teasing him.

"Okay! Did you do it on purpose?"

"Yeah, whoever let you be kissed by her, of course I have to get some back. I can't do anything about her, you and I can't let it go. You are also a victim, so let's forgive you for the time being. Don't make an example."

Jun Lanzhou couldn't help but smile: "Overbearing. I don't know who else can bear it except me."

Jun Lanzhou was an unintentional joke, but when Ruan Yunting heard it, she suddenly thought that Jun Lanzhou was an authentic ancient man, and he might agree with polygamy like all other men.

For some reason, the enthusiasm that was still joking was suddenly extinguished, and the smile on his face was gradually replaced by sadness.

Seeing her like this, Jun Lanzhou was really anxious, and took her cool hand: "What's the matter? I just said a joke, and I can't count it. I didn't mean you are bad, are you angry?"

Ruan Yunting shook her head, sighed and said, "No, I wouldn't be angry because of such a trivial matter. Let's go back, it's getting cold."

Hearing this, Jun Lanzhou obediently carried Ruan Yunting onto the horse, and the two rode back to Yangxin Xiaozhu together.Along the way, Jun Lanzhou looked down at Ruan Yunting's expression from time to time. Seeing that she was not as cheerful as when she came, her brows were furrowed in annoyance. If she had known she would think too much, it would be better if she didn't make that joke.

Concubine Xu's visit to relatives this time was not public, because the sixth prince had just passed away, and the Xu family had also lost many times, so it was just that Detai brought the palace people back to the Xu family in person.

The old lady has not recovered yet, and when she heard that Xu Ningmeng came back home in good health, her first reaction was to worry. After seeing Xu Ningmeng, she asked carefully, and learned that she came back to visit her specially for the emperor's kindness, so she was relieved. Take a breath.

Xu Ningmeng had something in her heart. Although meeting her mother, grandmother and family was something she had been looking forward to day and night, now her heart is tied to Han Jianing. She is eager for revenge, and she really can't think of any other way, so she can only gamble this time up.

Both the old lady and the eldest lady could see that Xu Ningmeng was restless, and it was only because she was too sad to lose her son just now.After all, as a concubine, it is not easy to be able to give birth to a dragon son, let alone raise it until the age of 15.Seeing that the sixth prince was expected to become a crown prince, but he suddenly disappeared like that, no mother would be able to bear the blow.

in this way.The whole morning passed, and when it was the end of the day, Xu Ningmeng just lay down and was about to take a nap when she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer in the yard, especially the unswept snow being stepped on.

Xu Ningmeng hadn't had a good rest these days, and she couldn't fall asleep when she heard this disturbing voice, so she sat up irritably and scolded: "Whoever is outside, the noisy I can't sleep peacefully!"

"Your Majesty!" Thrush lifted the curtain and entered the room, and hurriedly said, "Eunuch De is here!"

When Xu Ningmeng heard this, she was taken aback by her delicately made-up face, and then couldn't hide her joy: "Really?" She went down to the ground gracefully, and was put on shoes and clothes by the thrush.

With someone coming at this meeting, it must be that Jianing's business has been done!

Just after putting on the gown, the door curtain was lifted again, and Detai brought four young eunuchs into the house, saluted and said: "Greetings to the imperial concubine."

"No." Xu Ningmeng and Shi Shiran sat down in the central seat.

Detai lowered his head and said: "Imperial Concubine, this slave is following the emperor's will, please follow this slave back to the palace immediately."

Xu Ningmeng took a leisurely sip of the short-term teacup that she had been busy with, and said lazily, "What's the matter? I'm in such a hurry, I've only been out for half a day."

Detai smiled and said: "I don't know what's going on, my lady, please."

Xu Ning dreamed about it, frowned pretending to be worried, stood up, followed Detai to leave the mediocre residence, and ordered Huamei to report to the old lady and the wife respectively on the way, saying that there was something urgent in the palace, so she went back first.

Sitting on the gorgeous carriage, Xu Ningmeng couldn't hide her smile. This trick of hers would definitely bring down that bitch Xu Xiangwan!Ever since she entered the palace, although there were many dangers, she has been on the rise all the way. When did she suffer such a big loss?After Xu Xiangwan entered the palace, he first relied on his youth and beauty to invite favors, the emperor was fascinated by her, and Xu Xiangwan completely disrupted the situation where she and Concubine Lu were fighting against each other.

Xu Ningmeng couldn't help laughing at the thought of avenging her son and humiliating her.So that the carriage stopped slowly, and when Detai helped her get out of the carriage, the smile on her face could hardly be hidden, and she put on a worried mask after contemplating for a while, changed to the carriage, and followed Detai to the Palace of Forbidden City. to go.

Xu Xiangwan came to the gate of Yanshou Palace, got out of the carriage with a graceful figure, and pretended not to know, and asked, "Didn't the emperor come back from the Palace? Why did Concubine Wan come here? Could it be... What happened to the Ninth Princess? "

Detai smiled, and answered the wrong question: "The imperial concubine, please go in, the emperor and the concubine Wan are waiting for you."

Seeing the magnificent decoration of the Yanshou Palace, Xu Xiangwan felt sour in his heart. He raised his skirt and put it on the steps, took off his cloak and handed it to the palace servants in the corridor, and walked through the main hall to the right. In the sleeping hall, the emperor was wearing black Dressed in a dragon robe, he was sitting on a black paulownia armchair in the center.Han Jianing was lying unconscious on the Babu bed beside him, and Xu Xiangwan was directing a group of imperial physicians to make diagnosis and treatment.

Xu Ningmeng had enough tears to flow down at this moment, and wailed: "Jianing!" She rushed over, vividly expressing a mother's anxiety for her child, and when she arrived at the bedside, she saw Han Jianing's face turned blue and unconscious, Xu Ningmeng's heart was really rubbed, she didn't need to act, her face was already as pale as paper, and she angrily grabbed Xu Xiangwan: "Concubine Wan, it's kind of you to tell me, my Jianing was fine when she came, why did she just come here?" In the morning, people have become like this!"

Xu Xiangwan had tears in his aggrieved eyes, and looked at the emperor for help: "Your Majesty."

The emperor stretched out his right hand to Xu Xiangwan with pity, and then looked at Xu Ningmeng with a smile that was not a smile: "My concubine, why are you so anxious. Let's listen to what the imperial physician has to say."

Xu Ningmeng wiped away her tears, not daring to disobey the emperor's words, but there seemed to be no intersection in his words, Xu Ningmeng's heart sank, it seems that Han Jianing was right yesterday, the emperor didn't care about them at all.In the deep palace, there are too many people who flatter and flatter the emperor. If you don't work hard, you will never get their turn.

When Xu Ningmeng was puzzled, the imperial physician came forward, knelt down and kowtowed and said, "Return to the emperor, the princess has six welt marks on her body, after the examination by the servants, the princess has been poisoned."

"Poisoned?!" Xu Ningmeng shook her head in disbelief: "How could it be, how could the princess be poisoned?!" The blood was immediately drained from her connection. Looking at Xu Xiangwan, he cursed viciously: "You must be the one who wanted to kill my Jianing, so you poisoned her diet!"

"Your Majesty knows that there are absolutely no concubines." Xu Xiangwan's face was pale, and his appearance was as pitiful as the helpless Youlan in the empty valley: "Thanks to the imperial concubine for trusting the princess to be taken care of by the concubine, it's too late for the concubine to be happy, why? Will it be framed? Really, something was wrong when the ninth princess arrived at the Longevity Palace this morning, first she was dying and didn't like to talk, and then she passed out, and the concubine hurriedly invited the imperial doctor to give a diagnosis and treatment, which alarmed the emperor."

The imperial doctor also said: "Your Majesty, just as I have just reported, the poison on the princess' body is not caused by food or drink, but caused by trauma."

When Xu Ningmeng heard what the imperial physician said, she knew that when she didn't come just now, the imperial physician didn't know what else to report to the emperor. Now she is the only one who doesn't know the situation here.

"How can there be whip marks on Jianing!? She is a princess, who dares to beat her!" Xu Ningmeng sobbed and cried: "She is only 12 years old, and she is still a child. Who is it? It's whipping and poisoning, if you have enmity with me, just come to me, why bother to embarrass a child!"

Xu Ningmeng burst into tears, fell down and sat on the edge of Babu's bed, took Han Jianing's weak little hand and cried loudly, as if she wanted to vent the grief of losing the sixth prince.

Unexpectedly, the emperor, who had been silent for a long time, looked at Xu Ningmeng's back, and suddenly snorted coldly: "Yes. Who the hell is capable of hitting a 12-year-old girl, whipping a whip, and poisoning her! Detai! "

"The slave is here." Detai bowed forward.

"Go, bring the poisoned whip that was found from the imperial concubine's palace, and show it to the imperial concubine."

"Observe the order." Detai led the order and retreated.

Xu Ningmeng's body trembled, her eyes widened in disbelief, did she hear correctly, was it found from her palace?She clearly ordered Jinxiu to wrap the whip with a cloth strap, stuff it into a stone, and bring it to the Imperial Garden, where it dug open the frozen lake and sank it into the water.How could it be found in her palace?

"Your majesty, I don't understand what you mean." Xu Xiangwan turned around and knelt in front of the emperor.

"Don't understand?" The emperor's voice rose instantly, and he couldn't hold back his anger anymore. He stood up abruptly, pointed at Xu Ningmeng with one hand, and scolded: "In front of me, you still dare to pretend to be confused, you poisonous woman!"

"Your majesty, my concubine has been wronged, I don't understand what you mean." Xu Ningmeng was startled, and knelt down on the ground with her forehead pressed against the ground.

"Knowing that the Dongchuang incident happened, you still dare to quibble in front of me. Jinxiu in your palace can't bear the punishment and has already confessed!" The emperor's eyes were red with anger, and he said sadly: "I never imagined that you would be so vicious, even tiger poison Bushizi, how can you do anything to your own daughter? And how can you be so cruel as to poison the braids! Feelings, you begged me to allow you to entrust the princess to Concubine Wan to take care of you, that's the idea! In order to win favor , You actually sacrificed the princess as the price! You have such a vicious heart!"

Long Yan was furious, and the whole room knelt down on the ground.

Detai held the tray with both hands, and on the tray was the braid that Xu Ningmeng used to whip Princess Jianing.When the emperor saw it, he reached out and grabbed it and threw it in front of Xu Ningmeng.

"What else do you have to say!"

When Xu Ningmeng saw the whip, she thought of Han Jianing's pain-bearing face yesterday, and sweat broke out on her forehead, but at this juncture, she couldn't admit anything, if she did, it would be a serious crime.

"The concubine is not there, the concubine is wronged!"

"Injustice? It seems that you won't shed tears when you see the coffin! Bring me beauty!"

"Yes."

The guards outside took orders, and within a short while brought in the palace maid Jinxiu who was serving Xu Ningmeng.Jinxiu fell to her knees with a thud, and said cryingly: "...the slaves dare not lie a single word. Yesterday the imperial concubine dismissed the slaves and other maids, and ordered not to go in to disturb her. Princess Jianing screamed too loudly. Poor, this servant and a few little maids can hear clearly. As for the other things about the imperial concubine, this servant doesn't know anything about it."

The emperor stared at Xu Ningmeng coldly: "There are witnesses and evidence, what else do you have to say!"

Xu Ningmeng's heart was already half cold, she knew that she couldn't hide the fact that she beat Han Jianing and wanted to blame Xu Xiangwan, the most important thing now was to clear the charge of poisoning.Thinking of this, he kowtowed and said, "Even if the concubine really beat Jianing, the concubine never poisoned her!"

The emperor was furious, and kicked Xu Ningmeng to the ground: "You are an imperial concubine, you dare to deceive me when you speak contradictoryly? If Jinxiu hadn't come forward to testify, are you going to continue to deceive the emperor!"

Being labeled as a bully, Xu Ningmeng almost peed her pants in fright, kowtowed and said, "I dare not, even if I give my concubine 1 courage, I will not dare to bully you, Your Majesty!"

"Don't dare? You even beat the princess to blame the concubine, why don't you dare!" The emperor sat back heavily in the armchair, and said heartbroken: "In the past, you framed Concubine Wan in every possible way. For the sake of your love for many years, you didn't pursue it anymore. Unexpectedly, you didn't pursue you, but you got worse and worse. Now you are blinded by jealousy, and you don't even let your own daughter go. No matter whether Jianing can survive or not, you are not worthy to be here Be her mother!"

"emperor……"

"When I canonized you, I thought you were dignified and obedient, gentle and virtuous, worthy of the word 'benevolent and virtuous'. But now, you have turned the title I gave you into a big joke!" The emperor took several deep breaths, picked up the The teacup took a sip of tea, then dropped the teacup casually, regardless of whether it would break something, and said in a cold voice: "Declaration of my will, benevolent emperor and noble concubine, bullying the emperor, vicious and jealous, murdering the emperor Heir, the crime cannot be punished, but if you think about his love for serving me for many years, you will not implicate his clan, put Xu's family in limbo, and no one can visit him!"

"According to the order."

"Your Majesty! The concubine knows her mistake!" Xu Ningmeng never imagined that things would turn out like this. What went wrong?Why did the emperor mention that she framed Xu Xiangwan in the past?She obviously didn't poison her, so why did she find poison on the whip?Why did the whip that was supposed to sink into the lotus pond appear here now?

Before she had time to think about everything, she kowtowed and said, "Your majesty, my concubine has served you for so many years and gave birth to the sixth prince and princess. There is hard work without credit. The concubine family is loyal to the emperor. The concubine has absolutely no second thoughts towards the emperor, and has absolutely no intention of expiry, I beg the emperor to forgive the concubine for the sake of the years of love, the concubine cares too much for the emperor!"

The emperor looked at Xu Ningmeng with complicated eyes.

Seeing the emperor like this, Xu Xiangwan knew that he was still thinking about his old love. He looked back at Han Jianing who was on the bed, got up with sobs and went to the bedside: "Princess, wake up, wake up!"

The beauty was weeping, crying pitifully, the imperial doctor hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't be too sad, the princess's poison has already penetrated into the bone marrow, there is no medicine to cure it, but it's just a matter of getting through the day. "

When the emperor heard this, his anger surged again, he turned his back and waved his hands: "What are you still doing in a daze! Take this poisonous woman away!"

"Yes!" Detai couldn't hesitate any longer, and brought the little eunuch forward, standing up Xu Ningmeng from left to right.

Xu Ningmeng heard that Han Jianing's poison had no cure, and she was already crying to the point of exhaustion. She was dragged outside, still stretched her neck and looked in the direction of the bed, crying, "Jianing, my concubine is sorry for you, Jianing..."
