Song Slave’s Revenge
: I still remember that I was originally a song slave in Yongan Hou Mansion when
I was in love with Thrushcross. He
lived a happy life of serving the Marquis, being molested by the Marquis, and sulking with the Marquis.
While I was waiting to be carried as a concubine to eat and die, the present emperor forced the Marquis who promised to recover the north to give me status.
I rolled up my bedding and hurried into the palace.
Since the Marquis is a sinner, then this disaster country demon imperial concubine,
I should decide.
My name is Ling, Shanqin. He
was a song slave kept by the Hou Mansion. The Hou Mansion always said that he was not elegant enough to let me call myself a musician.
A musician is a musician. It’s all about this anyway.
Little Ling, why are you in such a daze. Give me a cup of tea.
Hou Ye had hurt his voice on the battlefield when he was young. His voice was clear but a little hoarse. There were always people who complimented him that it was the sound of jade. Personally,
I think it’s more like the vibrato brought out by plucking the strings.
Hey, little slacker. Back to God, now really more and more can not command you. “
Hou Ye gently knocked on my forehead, suddenly enlarged face let me suddenly back to God, can not help but be startled by him.”.
I exclaimed and leapt back and tripped over the low stool.
“Marquis, you’re making fun of the slave family again.”
He finally laughed out loud and got up to help me sit where I was.
“Silly girl.” The Marquis in
front of me looked down at me with a deep smile in his eyes.
I always feel that the man in front of me is not like a battle-hardened warrior.
He was dressed in a green shirt, his head was not crowned, and he was covered with military armor, so I put him in the room. Pen, ink, paper and inkstone spread a table, with half a cup of the literati’s favorite Fangshan dew bud at hand. I can’t do it
now. What can I do in the future. Don’t you want to ride on my head, eh?
He pretended to be stern and cold, staring at my slightly rising coda, revealing his heart to molest me.
“Then the Marquis will have to carry the slave’s house as a concubine first.” With a red face,
I choked back not to be outdone.
The Marquis smiled at my lips, and his sharp eyes rose slightly.
It’s a beautiful face, and I’m a little crazy about it.
No wonder Wang Ye’s helmet is wearing a mask, otherwise this is not a victory. Smile
at the enemy, people can laugh to shake off the horse. The
soul has been taken away, so why fight a war.
“Really no pursuit, Ling.”
When you recover the northern land, you will take off your armor and return to the fields. How about marrying you?
Hou Ye gave me a sidelong glance and pretended to be frivolous. The tip of the ear is slightly red.
I can not help but be moved, drowned in this pair of eyes, but a moment to wake up.
“Don’t make fun of the slave family, sir. You are a general with outstanding military exploits. You should be promoted to a higher rank and married to a beautiful woman.”. The slave family is just an orphan girl, and it’s a great honor to be served by Wang Yeh.
He sobered up and murmured,
“Yes, I am a general with great military power and military exploits.”
His eyes looked into the distance, as if he could see through the layers of walls to the desert.
I don’t know what I remembered, but I lowered my head and took a sip of cold tea with a wry smile. I subconsciously wanted to add a cup of hot to Hou Ye, and he stopped my hand with a faint interest. Smiling gently at me, the person who was out of tune just now was gone. He smiled as if he had exhausted all his strength and whispered
, “Ling, let me play a tune for you.”
I got up and picked up my piano. The courtyard was filled with the sound
of the harp, and the Marquis was leaning on the porch to drink and listen to me singing. Perhaps the sound of
my harp reached the Guanghan Palace, and the old housekeeper quietly lit the lamp. Under the
lamp, Hou Ye’s eyes were flushed, and he did not know whether he was drunk or his face was covered with candlelight. He hummed a tune beyond the Great Wall to the sound of my piano. The tone is extremely gentle, like the spring breeze waking up the earth, or like the mother coaxing the child to sleep under the moonlight.
“Ling’er.”
He whispered my name:
“Fill it up for me.”
When the sound fell, Hou Ye slowly looked up at me and described my face with his eyes. He was so drunk that he couldn’t see clearly, so he put his hand on my face and tried to figure it out.
I filled the Marquis with wine, but he pulled me and refused to let go. Finally, he took a deep look at me and helped me tidy up my sleeves.
Ling, the weather has changed. It’s late at night. Go back to sleep.
I looked back at him step by step with the harp on my back, and the Marquis watched me with a smile under the porch. I don’t know when I put on the white fur coat given by the late emperor, and I suddenly found that he was much thinner. It seems that there is only one piece of pride left in the whole body.
Hou Ye sometimes looks like a man of letters who is full of words, and sometimes he looks like a bohemian playboy. Now this is like the frustrated protagonist in the storyteller’s mouth, he is like everything but not like the invincible general, the Yongan Hou of Dalin.
“The water is running out! Come on, people, the water is running out!”
I woke up with a start and found myself tied to the carriage.
I rolled desperately to the car door, but I saw a sea of fire in Hou Fu.
From a distance, I saw the Marquis standing in the sea of fire, dressed in military armor, and the snow-white fox fur coat was covering me.
I couldn’t make a sound and could only roar hoarsely. The old housekeeper came from the front of the car and covered my mouth, and his eyes were red with the fire.
It was the bowl of sweet soup that the Marquis asked the old housekeeper to bring before going to bed.
I bit his hand and struggled to get off.
“Miss!” The old housekeeper’s hand had been bitten through by me, and the blood mixed with my tears fell on the fox fur.
“My lady!”
“My lady!”
He whined and repeated my name over and over again.
“Uncle Wang!”
Blood and tears covered my face, and I wailed the name of the old man.
Wang Bo’s tears slowly slid down his face deep in the gully.
“The Marquis wants me to send you away. He wants you to live well!”
“I beg you, young lady, don’t go back, don’t go back!” In the 12th year of
Lin’an, Huo Huai’an, the Marquis of Yong’an, set himself on fire to avoid punishment.
Shuaiyin is hanging in the air, and the military power belongs to the imperial family.
Hou mansion up and down more than a hundred people all sent to buy, read north barbarians frequent invasion of my big forest territory, the old department of meritorious service to the north of the Great Wall. With the harp on my back,
I was sent to the palace of Prince Qi overnight. When he
entered the mansion, the king of Qi was hurrying out in his robe.
It turned out that the ugly time was coming, and the hungry wolves in the court began to discuss how to share the bones of the Marquis. When the king of
Qi saw me carrying the harp, he was slightly stupefied. Moments later, he leaned over me slightly and put a string of beads on his wrist into my hand.
“Red maple trees and red willows. Send Miss Ling to the side courtyard first.”
I knelt down and wanted to kowtow to Wang Ye. He bent down to help me up. I insisted on kowtowing, so he stiffened and accepted the kneeling.
“Your Highness, the king of Qi, is merciful. I wish Your Highness all the best. Everything will be as expected.”
His face looked startled, and I lowered my eyes from him.
“Your Highness, it’s almost dawn, isn’t it?” As soon as
I looked through the walls of the palace, I saw the emperor who did not know who he was, the people who were displaced, and the soldiers who were cold in the desert.
“Yes, it’s almost dawn.” The firelight
of Yongan Hou Mansion reflected the night sky and lit up the whole twilight. The sound of
my harp spread to the sea of fire, to the former Dynasty, and to every household of the people. The
fire was burning more and more, and it reached the cloud curtain. The strings are broken, but the sky is getting brighter and brighter. The king of
Qi returned to the mansion with the dew of early autumn, changed his court clothes and hurried out again.
Tamarix brought me a bowl of porridge and put it on the small table by the window.
“Ah Ling, have some.”
Wang Yeh ordered the kitchen to do it, saying that he would wait for it. What Master Huo has read must be more to your taste.
I scooped up a spoonful of hot porridge and put it in my mouth until the rice melted and the strong meat flavor hit my taste buds.
I forced myself to finish a small bowl of porridge spoonful after spoonful, and smiled soothingly at the red willow.
She came close to me and let me lean on her shoulder.
Without waiting for her to speak, I pushed her away. He ran out of the house and vomited in the dark.
Somehow, it tasted too much like Huo Huai’an’s cooking in front of a campfire.
I sat on my knees in a daze.
When I followed Hou Ye to war, the aroma of porridge in the camp was overflowing in the evening, and all the soldiers in the camp and I were staring at the small pot of porridge with drooling eyes.
He laughed and scolded,
“It’s all rolling. Everything is there. Cook it yourself.”. Don’t stare at my bowl!
The men looked at even the pot away of the Marquis, all laughing and booing, each other arranged a few HuoHuai’an romantic fun, while fighting to cook porridge.
The pot of porridge was placed in front of me, and he looked at me
with a smile. “Ling is too thin.”
“Ah Ling, what’s the matter with you?”
Hongliu hurried to me with a wet handkerchief.
I covered my red eyes and winked at the red willow apologetically. She handed me the veil and helped me sit under the corridor. What’s wrong with
you. Why can’t you eat a single bite?
I don’t know what’s wrong with me, and I can only try to prevaricate.
“I’m fine. I just ate a little too fast.”
I sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at my face, which was white and shining like jade in the morning light. The bridge of
the nose is high, the eye sockets are deep, the eyelashes are long and dense, but the lips have become a little pale after three or four days of eating. I sighed in my heart, looking like
a Loulan demon imperial concubine. Worthy of the flow of half foreign blood, thin down so conspicuous.
I picked up the indigo on the table and carefully painted the eyebrows and eyes. The girl in the bronze mirror was charming and beautiful, smiling and charming.
The red willow was stunned, and the hand that helped me comb my hair stopped.
“Is it beautiful?” I opened my mouth and asked
, “It looks good, but it doesn’t look like you.”
“How do you compare with the imperial concubines?”
Tamarix thought for a moment, did not think of a reason to look at my whole body.
“I don’t know what she looks like, but an imperial concubine wouldn’t dress so shabbily as you do.”
She looked at me, dressed in plain clothes and wearing a plain bun, and then she seemed to suddenly come to her senses.
“Sorry..”
I smiled carelessly and tore the dry corners of my mouth. Blood flowed down the lips into the mouth, and the smell of blood filled the mouth.
Looking at myself in the mirror, I personally took the jade hairpin that Wang Ye used to redeem me.
As if there was something missing, I looked at the face in the mirror from side to side. I
got up and went back to the pillow to open the bundle. My bundle was packed by Wang Ye for me. Besides clothes and silver, there was also a box of Rouge to coax me.
He’s always like this. When he annoys me, he steals a box of Rouge for me.
I put the Rouge on my lips, and the person in the mirror was no longer the little beauty.
“Ah Ling, you look like a demon in a picture book.” Tamarix gawked at me.
I picked Tamarix’s chin and watched with interest as she blushed and dodged.
A man walked toward the main courtyard with the broken string lute in his arms. In
the main courtyard, the fat swallow and the thin warbler stood in the courtyard, and I walked to the end of the line with the harp in my arms.
The steward took the register and looked at me with a difficult face and looked at the king of Qi.
“What is Miss Ling doing?” The king of
Qi asked, pretending to be stupid.
I looked coldly at the girls in the courtyard and knelt on the ground without saying a word.
“Miss, why do you bother?” The steward hurriedly tried to help me up, but he couldn’t help me and looked at the king of Qi in embarrassment. The king of
Qi walked up to me and tried to persuade me to leave softly, but I was stunned by the way I looked up.
“You..” The king of Qi looked at my face at a loss for words, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
“Your Highness needs me, doesn’t he?”
“Today the emperor loves exotic beauties, and the girls in the courtyard, no matter how well they dress, are not as good as me, who has the blood of Loulan!”
“That’s not true. Get up first.” The king of
Qi knew that I had seen through it, frowned and reached out to pull me angrily.
“The emperor thinks more and more highly of the imperial concubine’s mother’s family. You’re not going to be able to hold on, are you?”
“Enough!” The king of Qi suddenly interrupted me and left the courtyard full of girls and stewards looking at each other.
I got up with the piano in my arms, and it seemed that the effect was achieved.
“Manager, please find me a lute.”
In the past few days, I have been staying in the side courtyard, concentrating on practicing my pipa and singing one ditty after another in Loulan tune. When the king of
Qi came to me, I was holding the lute and tuning the strings.
“How are you, Miss Ling?”
Pushing open the gate of the courtyard, the sun was shining all over the ground. I looked up and watched the king of Qi limping.
“Your Highness, what is the matter?” I looked up and down at his whole body, and I haven’t seen him for a few days.
“It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. Yesterday morning Chang Shao-fu said something wrong, which made that person furious and almost got dragged down and beheaded. Those of us who helped to speak, even my brother, the emperor, were punished.” The king of
Qi recalled the pain of the court yesterday.
Shaofu Xu was 58 years old. In his early years, he assisted the late emperor. When he was old, he also assisted the young emperor. It’s a good piece of heart and soul for the country. If you kill him, it will really hurt the hearts of the old ministers.
Speaking of this, the king of Qi sighed again.
I laughed and tacitly hooked the king of Qi with charming eyes.
“Your Highness doesn’t need me. Don’t you and I know that?” The king of
Qi was not used to my change and took two steps away from me to avoid my eyes.
I got up carelessly and pulled up the fox fur that slid down my shoulder. Her black hair hung down beside her ears, and she was not obedient and fluttered with the wind.
“It’s time, right?”
I looked at the king of Qi without any emotion. He dodged my eyes and pondered for a moment.
“I dreamed of Huai’an last night..”
Hear this my expression has a trace of solidification, pursed lips unconsciously trying to figure out the jade hairpin.
“What did you dream about?”
I’m actually a little nervous. In my
dream, Huai’an was holding a sword around my neck, blaming me for not protecting you. He called me a traitor and said he would kill me. The king of
Qi smiled helplessly, this dream is too real, Huo Huai’an this can absolutely do this thing.
I also pulled the corners of my mouth stiffly and put the jade hairpin back into the bun. Miss
Ling, why bother? Huo Huai’an left her enough silver for you to spend your whole life in style, and even more than enough to support a few shepherds. Why bother? The king of
Qi was a little confused.
“The life of the slave family belongs to the Marquis.” I looked firmly at the king of Qi, and when I thought of the Marquis, there was always a faint mist in my eyes.
“From the day the Marquis redeemed me with a jade hairpin.”
“The slave family is willing to follow the Marquis.” The king of
Qi shook his head and bowed to me a moment later.
“Lin thanked the girls for you!”
He looked at me in a trance against the light, and the breeze blew the hair on my temples and curled the morning light that slipped away. The
fallen leaves were blown all over the sky by the wind, and I smiled from the bottom of my heart.
I was sent to the palace in the name of Wang Fu Le Shi. The king of Qi annoyed his majesty and sent a few beauties to make amends, which was not noticeable.
The emperor did not see, for the sake of the king of Qi directly sealed the talent, live in the Zhongxiu Palace.
Zhong Xiu Palace is the emperor’s imperial concubine, named Su Xiangnan, who is very smart, beautiful and gentle. His temper was also very good, and he kindly pulled me to sit on the beauty couch.
“What’s your sister’s name? From now on you and I will be sisters!”
I pretended to be frightened and answered. His
name was Qin Ling, and he was a musician in the palace of Prince Qi. How dare you be worthy of the sisters of the Empress because of your humble status?
Shu Fei was stupefied for a moment. When you
enter the palace, you are your own sister. You must not humiliate yourself. The king of Qi. How is it?
Her voice dropped and she gave me a cautious look.
“If you go back to the Empress, everything will be fine.” The king of
Qi is right. If you mention him, Concubine Shu will protect me.
“Xiao Si asks his mother and concubine to pay their respects, and Empress Qin to pay their respects.” A child’s voice in the
distance interrupted our conversation, and a staggering child knelt down in front of the beauty’s bed and saluted. I hurriedly picked up the four princes, and Shu Fei looked at us with a smile and felt flattered.
Sister, I’ll call you Little Ling in the future. Hsiao yuan, next time, remember to call Ling Niangniang!
“Let’s go. Little Ling will stay for dinner, too.”
Looking at the smiling beauty and the lovely and courteous four princes, I began to really like them a little.
I was drawing my eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror when the maid came in hurriedly with a secret letter in her arms.
She was the one who was placed in the palace and was responsible for my correspondence with Wang Ye. The walls of the palace were so dense that they completely isolated the storm in the court. After holding
the secret letter in his arms and handing it to me, he stood behind me and dressed me.
“All the ministers have written to me to accept the favor as soon as possible and make sure that there is no more chaos.” The king of
Qi has made a pusher, and what I want to do is to seduce the emperor’s heart now.
I put the secret letter on the candle and lit it, and the faint light of the fire shone on my face.
Xiao Guifei is out of favor, and my chance has come.
Hug sleeve is particularly good at dressing, and my sharp facial features have completely become exotic charm under the modification of Rouge. Looking at myself in the bronze mirror, I smiled with satisfaction.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, I walked towards the Imperial Garden with the lute in my arms.
It was late autumn, and the Imperial Garden was depressed. A few remnant lotuses stand in a lake, and the autumn wind rolls up the withered red leaves on the ground. Under the moonlight, there was a strange color. I sat in the pavilion holding the lute. The palace people in the distance chatted and lit the lamp, reflecting my charming face.
The crisp sound of the lute spread from my hands, and I began to hum the soft tune of Loulan.
This babbling tune spread all over the garden, and naturally reached the ears of the emperor who came out of the Imperial Study to breathe.
I bribed the big eunuch beside the emperor with silver. I must see the emperor tonight. Whether I can keep him or not depends on my good fortune.
“This song is very well sung, and you deserve it!” I pretended to be frightened, pretended to be flustered and ran out quickly with the lute in my arms, deliberately fell in front of the emperor, and then knelt down softly.
He looked at me shivering in front of him with great interest, slowly reached out and raised my chin, forcing me to look at him. Holding the most charming eyes,
I looked at the emperor affectionately, and the man in front of me overlapped with my memory.
At that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne and personally went to Beidaying to reward the army. The conditions outside
the pass were difficult, so a banquet was set up in the general’s tent. When I was young, I sat behind the screen
with a veil and played the lute. The clank sound of the lute was like a war song. The wind and sand outside the pass swept through the hearts of the monarch and his subjects inside the tent. You
play it very well. What’s your name? Be rewarded!
The young emperor drank the bad wine brewed at the border and opened his mouth with a smile in the voice of a Drake who had changed his voice.
I knelt on the ground in fear, kowtowing and secretly approaching the Marquis.
Huo Huai’an touched my head and protected me behind him.
I leaned out half of my body and peeped at the flushed young emperor.
“General Huo is a highly skilled musician in Loulan. Can you give me what you love?” I was so frightened that I drew back behind the Marquis and quietly grabbed his sleeve.
“Your Majesty, this young slave is not skilled.” Huo Huai’an smiled at the little emperor and shook his head with love in his eyes.
The adjutant drank too much wine and became bold, and even began to tease the little emperor.
“Your Majesty, the one who plays the lute is the handmaid of the commander in chief, the future pillow man!”
The little emperor realized something was wrong and coughed lightly and rewarded me with a handful of gold leaves.
Hou Ye let me leave the account, and when I left, I took a careful look at the little emperor with the harp in my arms.
He gave me a light smile and tried to say something. I winked at him and ran away quickly.
Suddenly, the emperor looked at my face in amazement.
“Why didn’t I know there were such beauties in the harem?”
His hands were so strong that they pinched my cheeks red. My eyes were red and I cried:
“I should die if I startled the emperor. I beg Your Majesty’s forgiveness.”
A drop of tear fell from the corner of the eye to the emperor’s hand.
With a pitiful face, the disguise is exactly the same.
“What’s your name?” The picture in my memory flashed through my mind, and I was stunned.
“The maidservant’s name is Chin Ling.”
The big eunuch whispered, “This is your majesty’s new talent.” The emperor came to his senses.
Qin Ling? Good name. Then he picked
me up and deliberately made me panic
. The big eunuch looked at me in the emperor’s arms and shook his head with a sigh.
Maybe he also knew that the weather was going to change in the palace.
The emperor held me in his arms and walked all the way to the bedroom, and the water was already burning in his arms.
Sitting in the tub, I was in a daze playing with the jade hairpin I had picked.
Holding his sleeve, he tapped me on the shoulder and said,
“Little Lord, the emperor is waiting for you.”. Wash it quickly, don’t let the emperor wait too long.
I put on the prepared gauze clothes, dismissed the palace people, picked up the lute and went to the inner room.
The emperor sat on the bed and watched the beauty walk towards him step by step. I chose the gauze dress specially to let out a little spring scenery with my walking.
I took the sweet wine in my hand and gave it to the emperor.
He is not satisfied with the mouth, come to chase my lips. However,
I laughed again, and the emperor pretended to be annoyed, so I knelt on the ground.
“The maidservant knows that she is wrong, so punish the slave to sing a song for Your Majesty. Just sing a song of a charming girl.”
Then I held the piano while playing and singing, and my eyes hooked the emperor’s heart.
Laughter, music and screams filled the room, and I was numb when I really lay under the emperor. Every step before
this has gone through my countless deduction, tears quietly fell down.
The emperor seemed to feel the abnormality of my mood, a little unhappy, but also patiently coaxed.
“If you follow me, I will love you in the future!” The faces of the emperor and the Marquis in front of him overlapped. The
drunken Marquis pressed me under his body and looked at me with tears on my face and said the same words gently, but he pulled back from the precipice after feeling my trembling body. Outside the
window paper, the candle reflected the shadow of the night vigil. I swallowed my tears into my stomach and took the initiative to kiss the emperor.
The emperor was very kind to me, and even let me call his name when I was confused. Please pay your respects
that day. The queen admonished me and taught me nothing more than to do my duty and give birth to the heir as soon as possible. After that, she sent the concubines away. Concu
bine Shu was ill. On my way back to the palace alone, I bumped into Concubine Chen and Concubine Jing. Concu
bine Chen took one look at Concubine Jing, who immediately sneered
, “The scenery is bleak Imperial Garden, and my sister is really in high spirits!”
Finally, I pretended to be innocent and looked at them timidly. Concu
bine Chen sneered,
“The empress is too weak to teach her servants. Today I’m going to teach the empress what the rules are for the talented people of Qin. Someone will drag me down and beat me!”
I deliberately cried loudly, and Chen Guifei looked at me and left with satisfaction. The
palace executioner had long been bribed by me with money, and he called me and cooperated seamlessly.
This trouble spread to the ears of the emperor. He came to see me with heartache and was furious with the doctor.
It was the maidservant’s fault, and the imperial concubine taught her a lesson. A maidservant should not ask for Your Majesty’s love or punishment. Then he cried twice and
buried himself in the emperor’s arms with his eyes closed. To be honest, the first few strokes were really painful.
Sure enough, at noon, the emperor decreed that I should be given the title of concubine and the title of spirit. From the clothes to the ornaments, all of them were appreciated, and they came to have dinner with me personally.
Shu Fei looked at me crawling on the bed and scrubbed me with heartache.
“Little Ling, you can’t go against them next time!” I smiled at Shu Fei and nodded
carelessly. The four princes stood outside the hall and called me in a low voice.
At a young age, he already had a distinction between men and women, and said to the palace people in a milky voice that he would give the snacks to the empress Ling.
“How are things going, King of Qi?” Shu Fei knew that I had frequent contacts with the king of Qi, and finally she couldn’t help asking.
Your Highness is all right. Let me say hello to the empress for him. Is food and clothing safe?
Shu Fei heard this unexpectedly slowly shed tears, like sad and like tears of joy.
She slowly lay on my side and leaned on my back.
“The king of Qi and I have known each other since we were young, and we have promised to marry each other for the rest of our lives.” Su Hsiang-nan murmured. The king of
Qi was the eldest son of a concubine, and he was already afraid of his own line. It was absolutely impossible to see the alliance between the Su family and the king of Qi. The queen’s mother clan secretly calculated my father, and my grandfather retired and returned home in order to protect my father’s official career. The king of Qi is weak, and my father deserves to send me to the crown princess as a side concubine. On the eve of
my father’s banishment, the king of Qi left a letter with me. It was said that after the flood had been dealt with, he would come back to ask the late emperor for a marriage.
Su Xiangnan calmly told me the tragedy of the separation of his lover, and the tears of sadness and calmness seemed to have dried up.
I turned over to hold the pain of the wound and hugged her.
At first I hated it too, but it was only after I had Xiaoyuan that I began to have hope. He doesn’t look like his father at all. Although Xiao yuan is young, the governor is polite. Su Xiangnan fell asleep as he spoke.
I looked at her, and so did the young emperor.
We snuggled together and gradually fell asleep. For
three months in a row, the emperor doted on me alone, which made Chen Guifei even more disagreeable to me.
Chen Guifei’s big prince is a chance to speak out to ridicule Xiaoyuan, Xiaoyuan good do not care about this matter is still a free run to the side hall.
“Empress Ling, my mother has asked me to give her a purse!”
Xiao yuan will be four years old after the spring, and the well-dressed little fat man fell heavily in the doorway. Tears were replaced by a big smile at the moment they saw me.
I took him by the hand and got up. I told him to hold his sleeve and take the snack. I took Mrs. Tang and stuffed it into the child’s arms.
Xiao yuan smiled sheepishly and nibbled at the snacks on the plate.
He looked at me curiously as I plucked the strings. My lute was really not good. In order to avoid the emperor’s suspicion, I had to practice it day and night.
He hugged his sleeve and gave me a letter. My face changed and I sent Xiao yuan back to the palace. After
Xiao yuan left, I opened the letter, and there was a lot of things in it.
“How are you, Miss Ling? Words are like faces.”
「…」
First, he politely asked me about my recent situation and expressed your concern for me. The next few lines are the key points
: “The storm is gradually subsiding, and the Chen family has committed the crime of bringing disaster to your country.”. Do you have any children?
Watching the flame roll devour the letter, I pulled out the jade hairpin on my head and put the red cheeks roasted by the fire on the cold jade.
“Hug your sleeves and prepare the medicine for me.”
“Little Ling, is Little yuan here?”
Shufei’s anxious voice pulled me back, and I looked out to find that it was getting dark, and the afterglow of the sunset enveloped the whole yard.
“yuan’er?”? Did the four princes leave already after noon?
I am also a little worried, the child has been away from me for two hours, there is no reason not to go back to the main temple.
Shu Fei was so anxious that she was about to cry. I quickly comforted her and took the palace people to look for her. We searched all around the Zhongxiu Palace, but there was still no trace of it.
I had a premonition and shouted,
“The Empress is called the Imperial Physician!” Then I ran toward the Imperial Garden. The closer I got to the pool of remnant lotus, the more flustered my heart became.
Seeing a little man lying by the lake, his heart suddenly stopped beating. When I looked closer, I saw the little man gasping weakly. Then I breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, shouting loudly to slow down the doctor.
Back in the palace, Xiao yuan’er had a high fever, and the doctors knelt down trembling. When
the emperor came, he flew into a rage, and all the palace people around him were charged with unfavorable custody and pulled down to the prison to wait for their fate. After burning for three days and being critically ill several times,
Xiao yuan finally woke up slowly.
Sun Taiyi breathed a sigh and collapsed on the ground. I asked him to bring me a bowl of ginger soup, and Sun Taiyi thanked me gratefully.
“How are the four princes?” Shu Fei asked anxiously.
Sun Taiyi put down the soup bowl.
When you wake up, it’s all right, and your body slowly recuperates. The four princes are young, and they won’t leave behind the root of their illness. As soon as
the voice fell, Shu Fei burst into tears. Three or four days of fear and self-reproach finally broke out at this moment.
“Mother Concubine..” Ling Niangniang. I let Sun Taiyi go first to dispense medicine, and Shu Fei, whose face was covered with tears, gathered beside Xiao yuan’er’s pillow
. Brother Huang, his name is Child.. Go to the Imperial Garden and help him pick up a kite. Then he gave the child a push and came back late, which worried the mother and the empress.
Xiao yuan is only seven years old. He is only seven years old! Shu Fei and
I looked at each other and then turned away.
Chen Guifei came for Xiao yuaner’s life. The second prince in
the harem died early, and the third prince lost a leg when he was young. There is only one long princess
in the middle palace, and the crown prince must be born on the body of the big prince and the small far son.
The emperor is afraid of consorts forces, it is impossible to set up a big prince for the reserve, is really a good abacus.
I have a seamless plan.
God help me, I’m pregnant.
Shufei touched my stomach worriedly, and we both looked at the thin bed and turned our eyes to be firm.
“It’s all ready.”
She hugged her sleeve and stuffed the paper bag wrapped with saffron powder into my hand.
“Please be careful, little Lord.” At the end of the
speech, she gently touched my stomach, showing a look of regret.
I publicized my pregnancy, and Chen Guifei really couldn’t bear it.
The emperor was overjoyed at my pregnancy and held a banquet in the court.
I was a little surprised, but I was secretly pleased that the more people witnessed it, the better. At the
banquet, the delicacies were brought to the table like running water. I held back my nausea and laughed and fed the emperor grapes.
The emperor pulled me into his arms in front of the important officials.
Looking at the admiring eyes of the king of Qi and the disappointed looks of the old ministers, I secretly raised the corners of my mouth.
The concubines were drinking wine, while the maid next to me handed me a bowl of red bean soup.
Looking at this bowl of red bean soup, the fetus in my abdomen kicked me fiercely.
My tears actually dropped down, this is the first fetal movement.
Hou Ye’s former subordinates talked to the king of Qi, and they looked at me. I knew at
a glance that he recognized me. The young man was brought up by the Marquis, and even the posture of drinking was like Huo Huai’an.
The eldest prince, who had been raised by the imperial concubine Chen, was sitting in front of me, being fed by the ladies of the court. Seeing the steaming red bean soup in front of me, he asked the waiter
beside him curiously, “What is that woman drinking?”.
The waiter looked at his little master in embarrassment. The soup was given by the emperor.
“Big prince, it’s red bean soup.”
“I want to drink too!”
That’s against the rules, big prince. That is the grace of God given to our master. As soon as
the big prince heard that he was not happy, he immediately began to splash
, “I don’t care, I don’t care, that bitch can drink.”. Young master, I want to drink too!
Take the bait.
The big prince wanted to run to me, and the emperor wanted to open his mouth to scold me, but I blocked him with a charming look. The
waiter didn’t stop him, but let him run straight in front of me and push me.
My stomach hit the ground hard, which was totally unexpected.
I didn’t expect that the big prince would come to me, and I wanted to wait for him to make trouble and beg your majesty to open his mouth and share his food with me.
The big prince drank the red bean soup on my table before he could stop him. Chen Guifei had already bled from seven orifices and lay on the ground before she could stop him.
My lower abdomen was painful and blood flowed all over my legs. The king of
Qi looked at me in shock, and before I fainted, all I could see was the jade hairpin that had fallen in front of me in confusion.
I woke up three days later, and the child was gone and the prince was gone.
I looked at Shufei trembling, and Shufei’s face turned white because of fear.
We didn’t want the life of the big prince, and we won’t die if we eat together.
Sun Taiyi comforted us, saying that the medicine was given by Chen Guifei and had been found out. The death of the big prince had nothing to do with me. Let me cultivate myself well.
But what about my child? Even if it was through someone else’s hands, I still killed my child myself, didn’t I. Shu Fei and
I copied Buddhist sutras all day, hoping to get a little comfort.
Half a month later, the busy emperor came to see me.
He comforted me that there would be children in the future, that Chen Guifei had been executed, and that the Chen family had been exiled in the name of deliberate murder of the emperor’s heir.
I smiled at him faintly, snuggled in his arms, but cut him to pieces in my heart.
Four years later, I was given the title of Concubine Ling in Yongan Palace.
Yong’an Palace is really ironic. I looked at the word Yong’an on the plaque and pulled out the jade hairpin on my head.
I’ve been flustered for no reason recently, and I don’t know why I always feel a little sad.
Xiao yuan’er had grown into a young man, trying to discuss the government with a Drake’s voice. The king of Qi also praised Xiao yuan’er as an emperor many times in his secret letter.
Shu Fei nearly two years of poor health, always from time to time a high fever, has grown into the head of the hospital Sun Taiyi also helpless.
“Little Ling.” Su Hsiang-nan called me, and I hurried up to her.
“Sister, what’s wrong?”
“I dreamed of Ah Heng.” Su Xiangnan’s eyes already have light fine lines, into this red wall for more than ten years has already worn down all her air.
I don’t know who Ah Heng is, but the smile at the corners of Su Nanxiang’s mouth shows her girlish shyness. It must be the name of the King of Qi.
“He came to see me and said he would sneak out of the Imperial College in the evening and bring me a bunch of ice-sugar gourds from the street corner.”
Then he laughed crazily.
Small far son put light step to come in, unexpectedly was Su Xiangnan recognized as a Heng Meng hugged up.
I shook my head at yuan’er, who was stunned to push Su Xiangnan away.
“Sister Ah-heng has come to put you to bed. Go to sleep!”
Half a month later, the imperial concubine died of illness and was given the posthumous title of imperial concubine Shuyi.
Xiao yuan’er was made crown prince and temporarily lived alone in the Zhenshu Palace. The empress died
a year ago, and the emperor’s health became worse and worse.
I was promoted to be an imperial concubine, temporarily in charge of the six palaces. Holding the secret letter in my arms with a heavy
face, I knew
in my heart, “It’s time for dawn.” Looking at the words on the paper, I smiled with relief.
“You’ve worked so hard for so many years.”
Hug your sleeves and smile back at me.
“Miss Ling has worked so hard for so many years.”
“Greetings, Empress Ling!” yuan’er, who was
already in the year of the weak crown, returned from the court, and the emperor’s health was not as good as before, so he called yuan’er to the court early to discuss politics.
Looking at the handsome young man in front of me, I secretly made a decision in my heart.
“yuaner, are you ready?” I asked yuan’er solemnly.
yuaner looked at me firmly, and there was already an answer in his eyes.
“Leave it to me.”
By the time yuaner reacted to my words, he had already been coaxed out of the capital by the king of Qi and me.
“Miss Ling, are you ready?” The gray-haired king of Qi looked at me.
“How I miss it!” I stroked my old lute for a long time and played the battle song when I first saw the emperor. The king of
Qi stood up and made a deep salute to me, who was playing the lute. I looked at the lute in his hand and stopped.
“Miss Ling, I owe you an apology.”
“At that time Huai’an thought that after the northern part of the country was recovered and pacified, it would hang up its seal and return to its hometown, so that you could worship Qin Shaoqing as your adoptive father and then ask the emperor for a favor to marry.”
I smiled with relief.
“I don’t care anymore.”
“I’m not just trying to avenge the Marquis.” The king of
Qi looked at me in a trance.
“Let’s get light soon.”
I continued to play the piano and murmured the ditty beyond the Great Wall that Huo Huai’an loved many years ago.
Lying on his sickbed, the emperor looked at me in disbelief with a knife in front of him.
“Princess Ling, what are you going to do?” I looked at him coldly and did not answer.
“What have I ever done to you in my life?” The emperor wriggled in fear, and there was a smell of urine.
I slowly approached him with a knife, trying to find traces of the young man who had smiled at me in the general’s tent on his face.
“Your Majesty, do you still remember the song slave in the general’s tent in the first year of your reign?”
I looked at the emperor with a smile, threw the knife on the pillow, turned around and picked up my piano and began to play the war song.
He woke up suddenly and tears fell on his pillow.
“It’s you..”
“It’s you..”
“How could I not have imagined that there would be two pairs of identical eyes in the world?” A lot of pictures flashed through
his eyes in a moment, including attachment, fear, high-spirited youth and inability to do what he wanted in middle age. He shouted
fiercely, “Come on!”! Help! ‘
I smiled and enjoyed the emperor’s ugliness, and my hand played from the war song to the song of a charming girl. At the end of the
song, I removed a string, walked slowly to the emperor, and slowly reached out to smooth the messy hair on his face.
“The Marquis is waiting for you down there. Go and apologize to him.”
I sat in the Yongan Palace, playing with the jade hairpin. Miss
Ling? Won’t you go?
Huo Xiu has changed into an ordinary lady’s clothes, and is looking at me in a red dress.
“I’ll leave later. Miss Bao will help me bring the piano to Wang Yeh.”
To this day, I know that the name of Baoxiu is Bao Xiuxiu, the daughter of the palace steward.
Bao Xiuxiu answered with a puzzled face and left the Chang’an Palace with the harp in her arms. yuan’er,
dressed in filial piety, looked at me in silence outside the hall.
“yuaner, will you hate me?” I asked him with a smile as I had done many years ago, and the boy’s eyes were red.
“Why can’t you wait for me, Empress Ling?”
“I will soon be able to lead you to a better life.”
“Chin Ling! Chin Ling!”
The boy gaffed and called my name, and I looked at him with a smile.
“My name on the list is Ling, and I am good at playing the instrument. I am the song slave of the Marquis of Yongan, and I am the pillow man of the Marquis.”
“Your Highness.” I have never called yuan’er like this.
“I’m sorry I lied to you. I’ll listen to your uncle in the future. For the sake of your mother, he’ll protect you.”
“I don’t care!”
“I don’t care!”
yuaner broke down and shouted, and was forcibly taken away by the palace people. The light
outside the window caresses my cheek.
I lit the candles at the table, and the flames spread all over the palace.
The hot flame kissed me lightly. In a trance, the figure of the Marquis appeared in the center of the flame. He held out his hand to me and said,
“Little Ling, don’t be afraid.”
“If you follow me, I’ll love you!”
I took Huo Huai’an’s hand, and we kissed and sank in the heat. The
flames rose to the clouds and lit up the twilight.
