Chapter 306: Ice Returns to the Palace
"Is it the emperor's will?" A flash of disappointment flashed across Lan Guiren's pretty face, and then she said softly: "Tomorrow, I will definitely ask for the emperor's will to let my cousin enter the palace!"
Jingxiang looked at Lan Guiren, who looked persistent, and shook her head slightly. Her young master was actually just a simple-minded child, but was the cousin she relied on sincerely good to her? Or did she have other motives?
The next day, Lan Guiren went to Le'an early in the morning to seek the emperor's will and wanted her cousin Mu Dai to enter the palace. However, the emperor did not agree and scolded her. His face was full of displeasure and asked her to
Retired. [ ]
Looking at Lan Guiren who came out of the hall angrily, Wu Shulai deliberately stepped forward and said with a smile: "My lord, the emperor has many things to do. Recently, he is worried about the big things in the court. You really shouldn't upset the emperor with such trivial matters. All matters in the harem are purely pure.
The imperial concubine is the one who makes the decision, my young master, why don’t you go and ask for help from the pure imperial concubine?”
Hearing this, Lan Guiren's eyes lit up and he said to Jing Xiang beside him: "Let's go to Yihuan Pavilion to pay tribute to Concubine Chun!"
"My lord, didn't your Majesty exempt you from having to sleep for a month at dawn and dusk a few days ago? I'm afraid it won't be good for you to go at this time. It's too late to go at this hour!" Jing Xiang said respectfully.
"It's okay, Concubine Chun won't do anything to me, unless she still wants to be reprimanded by the emperor!" Lan Guiren didn't take it to heart and hurried to Yihuan Pavilion.
"Sister, why did Princess He Jing come into the palace yesterday? When I saw her, she seemed a little sad and seemed to have cried. When I asked her, she didn't answer!" In Yihuan Pavilion, Concubine Chun was looking at her.
Wei Ning'er asked with a slightly heavy face.
"It's because of my husband-in-law. The emperor has issued a decree to pardon my husband-in-law. I think the princess will feel at ease in the future!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.
Early this morning, the prince-in-law came to Zuixin Garden to pick up the princess. Seeing the heartfelt smiles on their faces, Wei Ning'er knew that the princess would not be upset again in the future, and she was relieved.
"My sister helped me plead for mercy, right?" Concubine Yu on the side said with a smile.
Wei Ning'er nodded lightly: "Even if I don't plead, the emperor will agree!"
Just as Concubine Chun was about to speak, the eunuch's voice came from outside: "Mr. Lan is here..."
"My dearest concubine, may you be blessed with peace of mind, and good luck to all my sisters!" said Lan Guiren with a gentle smile.
"My sister is not feeling well. The Emperor has decreed that my sister is exempted from having to sleep at dawn and dusk for January. Why do you come to Yihuan Pavilion at this time?" Concubine Chun came and looked at Guiren Lan and sneered.
"Your Majesty, I have something I want to ask for your permission!" Lan Guiren gritted his teeth and said softly. She didn't hear the dissatisfaction in Concubine Chun's words, but she had something to ask for, so she could only give in.
"What's the matter?" Concubine Chun frowned slightly, her words full of impatience.
"I haven't been feeling well these days. I would like to ask your Majesty to please allow me to come into the palace to meet my cousin!" Lan Guiren said in a low voice.
"Lan Guiren has been in the palace for so long, but has never studied the rules carefully with the mothers. Naturally, once you enter the palace, the gate is as deep as the sea. How can your mother-in-law see you whenever you want? When you become the head of the inner court, when you are pregnant,
, without my permission, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will bring your mother-in-law into the palace to take care of you!" Concubine Chun said this with a hint of sarcasm in her words.
Although this Lady Lan is innocent and lively, she is also willful and stubborn. Because she has been favored recently, she does not pay attention to the people in the harem. Although she has never had any bad relations with others and walks alone, she seems to be ignorant.
His appearance secretly aroused the resentment of many people.
"Your Majesty, I really miss my cousin, please allow her to come into the palace to meet my concubine!" Lan Guiren seemed not to have noticed Concubine Chun's intention at all, and begged with red eyes.
Everyone in the harem looked at Lan Guiren with different eyes.
Wei Ning'er looked at her, and for some reason, a trace of pity arose in her heart. Lan Guiren was just a child. Looking at her appearance, she must have begged the emperor, but the emperor refused, so she came to ask for Concubine Chun.
"Mr. Lan, there must be a limit to being arrogant. I heard that you begged the emperor several times to let your cousin enter the palace to accompany you. Now that the emperor does not agree, you have come to beg me. Please note that this is a bad rule.
I cannot agree to this matter!" Concubine Chun said with a stern face.
Lan Guiren's face turned pale and he was stunned for a moment before he said softly: "Yes!"
Just when everyone thought she wouldn't say anything more, Lan Guiren suddenly raised his head and said to Concubine Chun: "Madam, I bumped into you a few days ago. I know you don't like me, but I just want to see my cousin."
On the one hand, your Majesty, you are now in charge of the Sixth Palace, as long as you agree, who dares to say that you are breaking the rules!"
Concubine Chun suddenly felt powerless in her heart. She didn't want to say another word to her, so she gently waved her hand and said, "That's it for today!"
"Yes!" Everyone immediately stood up and responded.
"Your Majesty, that gentleman Lan is really stupid!" Qingyan whispered in Wei Ning'er's ear after leaving Yihuan Pavilion.
"Stupid? In fact, she is not stupid, she just didn't understand it!" Wei Ning'er shook her head gently.
The master and servants walked casually in the garden, and when they arrived at the rockery, Wei Ning'er was about to go there and rest for a while, but she saw Lan Guiren walking over quickly with his personal palace maid.
"May your concubine be blessed and safe!"
Wei Ning'er seemed to know what she was going to say, and sighed: "Inside the palace is not as good as outside. Lan Guiren, don't make the same mistake over and over again. I can't help you!"
Lan Guiren did not expect that she would refuse so simply, and looked at her in surprise, as if he had met Wei Ning'er for the first time.
Everyone in the palace said that your concubine seemed to have nothing to do with the world, but she was the most difficult to deal with and the most favored by the emperor. Everyone in the harem, except for the three pure concubines, were a little afraid of her and even avoided her.
.
"Your Majesty..." Lan Guiren was still a little unwilling to give up.
"Mr. Lan, my sympathy is always only for my own people, so you don't need to say anything more!" After saying this, Wei Ning'er stood up and ordered Qingyan and others to leave.
"Your Majesty, she is now favored by the Emperor. Why don't you help her and use her as your own?" Qingyan asked with some doubts.
"Take it for your own use? No need!" Wei Ning'er shook her head gently. Her only enemy was the Queen. With Lan Guiren's temperament, even if she took it for her own use, it would be a waste of effort and only add to her worries.
Watching Wei Ning'er walk away, Lan Guiren gritted his teeth and said, "It would be great if my cousin was in the palace, I can still have someone to rely on!"
"Little Master, you cannot say this!" Jingxiang was shocked.
Lan Guiren glanced at her and said, "Follow me to ask to see the Queen!"
"My lord, the Queen has been ordered by the Emperor to rest in peace, and no one is allowed to go to Yimengxuan!" Jing Xiang said as she chased after her.
Lan Guiren's matter seemed like a farce. Not only did she not get what she wanted, but the emperor gradually became quite cold towards her.
Even Wei Ning'er didn't know what the emperor was thinking. For a month, she never went to any other concubines except her Zuixin Garden.
"Mother, Eunuch Hu is here!" Qingyan saw her master sitting in front of the window, wondering what he was thinking. She didn't want to disturb her, but Hu Shijie had been waiting outside for a long time, so she had no choice but to come in and report.
"Please!" Wei Ning'er smiled.
"Yes!" Qingyan knew that Wei Ning'er had always treated Hu Shijie differently and had never treated him as a slave.
"Brother Wenhao, what do you want from me?" After sending the minions away, Wei Ning'er looked at Hu Shijie and asked.
"Ning'er, Lord Fu Heng sent someone to the palace to spread the news, saying that Bingruo has been found!" Hu Shijie reported in a low voice.
"We found Bingruo!" Wei Ning'er was shocked, endless joy surged into her heart, and she said in a trembling voice, "Where is Bingruo? Is she okay?"
"I don't know either. Mr. Fu Heng said that in a few days he will let his wife enter the palace to greet you and bring Bingruo into the palace!" Seeing how excited she was, Hu Shijie said quickly.
"Well, it's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" Wei Ning'er couldn't help but shed tears, but her face was full of smiles.
Once, she thought she would never see Bingruo again in her life. If she fell off the cliff, she would be shattered to pieces. But Bingruo came back alive, how could she not be happy?
On the second day, Wei Ning'er sent people out to deliver the order and chose Ruoyan to enter the palace. Naturally, Ruoyan also brought Bingruo back.
When they met again after seven years, Wei Ning'er suddenly realized that Bingruo had aged. They were actually about the same age, but at this time Bingruo had a weathered look on her face, her skin was sallow, and her hands were rough. She could tell at a glance.
She has suffered a lot over the years.
Looking at Wei Ning'er and Bing Ruo hugging each other and crying, Ruo Yan couldn't help but shed tears.
"Bingruo, I'm sorry for you. Not only could I not protect you, but I also made you almost die because of me. You have also suffered a lot these years. I'm sorry, Bingruo!" Wei Ning'er said over and over again.
"No, my queen, it is my blessing to be able to protect you. Seeing that you are safe and sound, I am satisfied!" Bingruo cried.
"Ning'er, Bingruo is back, you should be happy!" Ruoyan couldn't help but persuade them when he saw how sad both of them were.
"Yes, Bingruo, tell me, where have you been all these years?" Wei Ning'er asked, holding her hand.
"My slave was not dead at that time, but was seriously injured. I was rescued by hunters in the mountains. Later I wanted to go back to the palace, but I couldn't. Who would believe that I was from the palace? I don't know how many times I wandered outside the palace gate.
I almost died every time, so I had to give up and have been doing menial jobs for a living these years. It was not until Mr. Fu Heng sent someone to find me a few days ago that I had the opportunity to meet you again!" Bingruo replied very sadly.
.
"It's good that you come back, Bingruo, it's good that you come back. Tell me, do you want to stay in the palace or leave the palace?" At this point, although Wei Ning'er really wanted Bingruo to stay, she wanted to ask Bingruo about her wishes.
.
"If you stay, you will still be the maid in charge of my palace. If you don't want to, I will give you gold, silver and jewelry and buy you a house in the capital!" Wei Ning'er said immediately when she saw Bingruo's expression of embarrassment.
