palace heart

Chapter 93 Behind the Miscarriage Case (3)
With Crown Prince Chengxian taking over, it is enough to die and rest in peace. Emperor Ying closed his eyes again, let go of his thoughts, and then began to really sleep and rest.

The arrival of the new empress is imminent, and the palace is so busy that there is a panic. The front court is busy arranging and training the team for receiving the bride, and the harem is busy arranging and decorating.

However, Li Qianlan didn't have to worry about the work of civil and military officials in the previous court's reception.But in the harem, since Concubine Wu Guifei was grounded, as the highest-ranking concubine in the harem next to Emperor Ying, she has toiled a lot, from wedding candles to phoenix crowns, from banquet dishes to bridal chamber matters, but she can rub against her The eunuchs in charge came to Jingyang Hall to ask her about the previous affairs.Sometimes she couldn't decide Yingdi's preferences, and she had to go to ask Yingdi for instructions, which really made her so busy that she nearly rolled her eyes and fainted.

After welcoming the new year, it is beneficial to the development of the country. Of course, sufficient preparations must be made to maintain the relationship between the two countries. However, the power of the previous dynasty cannot be ignored, and it must be reformed and stabilized.

That day, after Shen Mojun brought a message to Cao Keben, Cao Keben felt more at ease recently, and hardly went out to drink Huajiu.

However, in order to appease Su Kairui, Li Qianlan could only coax Emperor Ying with nice words, and coaxed Emperor Ying to Baihua Palace.Baihuadian is Su Chongyuan's bedroom. Su Chongyuan was naturally happy when he saw Emperor Ying coming over. He used all his ability to play, play and sing, and coaxed Emperor Ying so much that he didn't intend to go back to Jingyang Palace even after staying for several days. .

Li Qianlan was naturally happy in her heart, and she even sang with Emperor Ying's husband. She took the opportunity to invite Su Kairui into the imperial study, and gave Su Kairui a thorough analysis of the big benefits, the country's situation, and the division of military power.

"The emperor is the son of heaven, and he is the one who can stand on the stage. If the dowager Gao holds the military power, she will also be a daughter. All the officials in the court are men of seven feet. You can allow a woman to come out and interfere in political affairs. Can you tolerate the emperor's gift of three prostrations and nine kowtows to a woman?" Li Qianlan looked at Su Kairui, and her tone was as gentle as a spring breeze blowing on her face: "Master Su, do you think what I said is right!"

The relationship between Emperor Ying and Empress Dowager Gao has reached a subtle point, so how could Su Kairui not know, he knew the purpose of Li Qianlan looking for him, he broke out in a cold sweat nervously, and smiled even more unnaturally: "The three cardinal guides and five constant rules are determined by the old ancestors. How can the rules of etiquette be messed up at will, Concubine Shu is very right! It's very..."

Li Qianlan smiled slightly, and continued: "Lord Su must have heard about the harem in the previous court. Concubine Wu Guifei has been in the palace for many years, but she doesn't know the general situation. A few days ago, the emperor banned her from leaving the palace for a month. In fact, among the concubines, Bengong still likes Su Chongyuan very much. Not only is he dignified and beautiful, but he is also smart. These days, Bengong always talks about Su Chongyuan in front of the emperor, and the emperor likes it. No, he has already slept there Sanye. Master Su also knows how difficult the road to the harem is, if Su Chongyuan can give birth to a dragon son for the emperor, then she will have a backer, and her status will naturally be guaranteed. Tell me, is this the reason?"

"Yes yes yes..." Su Kairui nodded his head like a pest. If the Su family wants to live well, Su Chongyuan has to climb higher.

After sending Su Kairui away, Li Qianlan also visited Su Chongyuan and gave her some exquisite jewelry. Both Su Chongyuan and Su Kairui were smart people, so they naturally accepted Li Qianlan's overtures and expressed their willingness to abandon Concubine Wu. , and followed Li Qianlan.

Satisfied with keeping the Su family stable, Li Qianlan turned around and started dealing with Concubine Wu.

In order to better combat Concubine Wu's enthusiasm, Li Qianlan asked Chen Jinghua and Qiu Yun to go to the Yiyuan Palace from time to time, in order to send some Li Qianlan's gifts and greetings to Concubine Wu, in fact, it was actually the one who used to show off her anger to Concubine Wu.

The mountains and rivers take turns, today is yours, tomorrow is hers, but when it comes to Li Qianlan, who Wu Guifei looked down on the most, how can she not be angry? Thinking back then, thinking about it now, Wu Guifei’s heart hurts with anger, but unfortunately there is nowhere to go To vent, he had to vent his anger on the maids and eunuchs all day long, or smashed things around in the palace, and he could no longer pretend to be the gentle and elegant demeanor before.

Hearing this, Li Qianlan raised the corners of her mouth and said to herself: "Don't worry, Concubine Wu, we are just getting started, I will pull your skin little by little, and make your life worse than death!"

After a long hot summer day, the weather finally cooled down. After a thunderstorm, Li Qianlan took Chen Jinghua to Lenggong alone. She was going to visit Lan Baolin, she wanted to know the truth about Hui Jieyu's miscarriage.

"Mother! Zhao Zhaoyi, what are you going to do with it? When will you do it?" Seeing that Li Qianlan ignored Zhao Zhaoyi during this time, Chen Jinghua thought she was too busy and dizzy and had forgotten about Zhao Zhaoyi, so Chen Jinghua could see her from a distance. When Zhao Zhaoyi was in the Huilu Palace, he deliberately reminded Li Qianlan in a low voice beside his ear.

Zhao Zhaoyi is vigilant like a hunting dog now, she doesn't say a word, doesn't take a step, and doesn't eat anything outside the hall, which makes it impossible for Li Qianlan to find a good opportunity to make a move. If it is about to give birth, She still can't find a good way to deal with the fetus in Zhao Zhaoyi's womb, so Li Qianlan can only let Chen Jinghua out. In short, Li Qianlan must not keep that kind.

She thought for a while and said, "After welcoming the new baby first, we will talk about it later. Anyway, she won't give birth so quickly. If it's really not possible, you should be more careful!"

"Okay!" Chen Jinghua understood what Li Qianlan meant, and readily responded.

The decaying Lenggong appeared in Li Qianlan's eyes after turning a few turns and heading west. From afar, she saw that the surroundings of Lenggong were surrounded by dense trees, making Lenggong even more eerie and weird. It was the first time she came to this kind of place, so she couldn't help but feel a little scared. She temporarily put aside Zhao Zhaoyi's affairs, and strode towards the cold palace. As she walked, she suddenly remembered something, and suddenly turned her head to look Looking at Chen Jinghua, he asked, "Xiaoxiao, has there been any movement during this time?"

"No." Chen Jinghua scanned the surroundings habitually: "It was quiet as if nothing happened. That day, I shouldn't have tested her. It really scared the snake."

"Don't worry, just stare at her, unless she can keep calm like this." Li Qianlan looked at the closed door of the cold palace in front of her and said, "It's almost the middle of the month again, you can go to Xiuyiyuan and contact Liu Jingyi when the time comes It is said to overthrow the Emperor Ying and help the crown prince Zuo Chengxian to ascend the throne. If they are willing to join, the high-ranking officials and rich salary will never treat them badly, let's see what they say?"

"Yes." Chen Jinghua replied.

Li Qianlan added a sentence, jokingly said: "Be careful, don't be caught by Xiaoxiao for your details!"

Chen Jinghua smiled: "I want her to find out the details, and I just meet her for a while to find out which faction she is from!"

"You two are fighting each other, who has a higher probability of winning?"

"of course!"

"Smile? Ha..."

"Xiaoxiao can win, and now she is so secure, she must be afraid of me!"

The two joked with each other and chatted all the way. After a while, they came to the gate of the cold palace.

As a woman of the emperor, once she enters a place like the Leng Palace, her good life will come to an end. Of course, there have been concubines who can escape from the Leng Palace in all dynasties, but that kind of good luck is rare It's rare, it happens once in hundreds of years, so the emperor's concubines know how to be cautious in their words and deeds, so as not to bump into Long Yan and be thrown into the cold palace, living a life that does not know what year it is.

Back then, both Lan Baolin and Hui Jieyu were favored by the emperor. Many people had rumored that the two of them were jealous and were secretly competing with each other every day. But at that time, God seemed to be more tired of Hui Jieyu, because it didn't take long. Hui Jieyu was pregnant with a dragon fetus.At that time, Emperor Ying was only a three-year-old Crown Prince Chengxian. He liked his concubines very much and gave him a son and a half daughter, so he doted on Hui Jieyu even more, which really suppressed the scenery of Sapphire Forest a lot.

However, when Hui Jieyu was five months pregnant, she suddenly had a stomachache and miscarriage in her sleep. The imperial doctor found out the cause, and the culprit came from the sachet that Hui Jieyu hung around her waist every day. It is a medicine that causes miscarriage, and the sachet was given to Hui Jieyu by Lan Baolin.

Emperor Ying was furious and threw Lan Baolin into the cold palace in a fit of anger. From then on, Lan Baolin lived in the cold palace with no success, while Hui Jieyu lived silently in the back hall, no longer caring about the red wall dispute, and circling around in the cold palace. Before the emperor.

Li Qianlan had heard about this matter in the palace when she was young, if it wasn't for the half-sentence that the emperor blurted out that day, she would never have imagined that this matter would have something to do with Concubine Wu Gui.

The door of the Leng Palace has become mottled under the comfort of the wind and rain, and there is a pile of messy leaves under the door that no one has cleaned. Chen Jinghua knocked on the door for Li Qianlan, and a hunchbacked eunuch with white flowers came out not long after.

The eunuch was originally not tall, and now with a hunchback, his stature was even smaller, but he had a very fierce face, his eyes swept across like knives across the flesh, which was really painful. Fear.

Seeing this, Chen Jinghua didn't wait for the hunchbacked eunuch to speak. He hurriedly protected Li Qianlan behind him, looked at the hunchbacked old man with a straight face, and said in a stern tone: "This is the concubine Shu of Jingyang Palace. She came to visit and imprisoned here. Sapphire Lin, just lead the way!"

He had never seen Concubine Shu before, but he had heard of her reputation before. The hunchback heard that Concubine Shu, who was popular in the harem at this time, was coming, and her fierce face immediately softened. Knowing Mount Tai, I offended Concubine Shu, and I begged Concubine Shu to forgive my slave's short-sightedness!"

"Get up." As soon as the hall door opened, Li Qianlan smelled a strange smell wafting from the hall, she covered her nose with a juan handkerchief: "Take me to see Lan Baolin!"
