Chapter 57: Resentment
It was delivered last night, but someone specifically reminded me that it could only be read the next morning.
After reading the handwritten letter, Concubine Su stood up and was about to pull out the Lingfeng sword hanging in the hall and use the sword to chop people.
To avenge my child who was never born safely and never saw the prosperity of the world!
She knew that she was in good health at the time, so how could she have a miscarriage for no reason?
It’s all that bitch Zheng Xuan’s fault!
As expected, if I had watched it last night, I would have been unable to sleep all night.
Concubine Su Gui's heart was bleeding.
"My queen, you haven't burnt incense yet today!" Cui Xin consoled her, "Please burn some incense first to calm your mind."
Concubine Su closed her eyes. She was on the verge of losing control. It seemed like she would lose control in the next moment.
"Bring the incense here."
The voice was so soft that the waiters in the hall dared not utter a single sound.
For fear of angering Concubine Su.
Normally, this master treats them gently and politely. Who doesn't know what a hard heart is hidden under this soft face?
Cui Xin agreed and ordered the palace maid to light the camphor.
Camphor is the best medicinal material that Concubine Su brought from home. After being approved by His Majesty, it was made into incense. When Concubine Su was young, she used it less often. Now it has been sealed in the dust for a long time and has not been used.
Concubine Su burned three incense sticks in front of the Buddha statue as usual.
The time she burns incense is not fixed.
Today, there was a reason for this. I went to observe Shuoxue and interrogate her. Shuoxue couldn't hold it and finally revealed something.
In order to make Shuoxue feel afraid, someone found some fine rice paper, soaked it in water, and then covered her face with it.
Layer upon layer.
That feeling of fear and suffocation has always lingered in Shuoxue's heart.
No matter how hard the mouth is, it can be pried open.
Who knew that this would become a reality when I came back.
After the incense was lit and the dragon's brain was smelled, Concubine Su's heart calmed down a lot:
"Didn't Yuling send two lotus flowers today? Find a white porcelain vase and put them in front of the Buddha."
Elegant and quiet, just like usual.
According to past rules, Concubine Su still kowtowed three times.
This habit was developed by Concubine Su after she had been on the battlefield. Concubine Su was once obsessed with martial arts, people's livelihood, and the battlefield.
Thanks to the relationship with Yun's uncle, he was fortunate enough to go to the battlefield twice, and nothing happened to him. He even made two military achievements.
However, after the Su family learned about this, they punished Concubine Su by making her kneel in the ancestral hall and strictly forbade her to join the army.
From then on, Concubine Su's desire to serve the court with her martial arts was put to rest.
After entering the battlefield and realizing the uncertainty of life and death, Concubine Su Gui's state of mind began to change.
It seemed that I understood why my grandmother served Guanyin.
Everything is just for the prosperity of the Su family and peace of mind.
After entering the palace, Concubine Su maintained this habit.
When his own child was gone, he simply thought it was because he had committed too many murders on the battlefield. His mind was pure and calm, and he did not dare to have even the slightest murderous or delusionary thought.
But I never thought that what happened more than ten years ago would actually take a turn for the better.
"Cui Xin, send a letter to the spy planted in Yongning Palace, and tell her to check the places mentioned on the note one by one, and find all the letters and medicines. No evidence should be left out!" Concubine Su Gui still found it difficult to suppress the hatred in her heart.
But she was calm enough.
No one can handle a woman who is smart, calm, aloof and strong enough.
Concubine Su was willing to pay any price, including all the people she had placed in Yongning Palace over the years.
Only one.
She wanted to make Zheng Xuan pay the price!
Concubine Su knew that she could not tell Emperor Yuan and Empress Yuan about this matter. Firstly, it happened too long ago. Even if the evidence was found out, all the contributions of Zheng Heluo to the court would be wiped out because of the Zheng family.
It is not enough to overthrow Concubine Zheng.
Secondly, she also wanted to seek justice for the fact that Zheng Xuan poisoned her, not to mention that Yun Zhuan was also implicated.
Thinking of this, she glanced at the lotus.
It is fresh and exudes a fragrance, just like that innocent little girl.
Yun Ju'an was dragged into this matter, and she felt extremely guilty.
"Yun Zhuan'an likes to write hairpin-shaped small regular script. Send her the lacquered gold seal and two purple inkstones." Concubine Su said softly, "Just say thank you for her kindness. I appreciate it. Please don't worry."
Cui Xin took the order and went down.
Concubine Su took down her sword and wiped it over and over again with a clean silk cloth.
As long as Zheng Heju remains in power, Concubine Zheng will never be able to step down from this position.
The hall was filled with the scent of berberine and was completely silent.
Cui Xin handed over the thank-you gift prepared by her own queen. Yun Ju'an thought about it for a while and felt that he should go.
Although this was an interconnected chain of events that she had expected.
But there are too many possibilities for everything to develop.
You can't let known things get out of your control.
Yun Zhuan'an asked Lu'e to accept the things. What she liked to write most was not the small calligraphy with flowers on the hairpin, but the superficial obedience, which needed to be reflected in all aspects of life.
How could a good girl like her like such an unruly cursive script?
Yun Zhuan sneered. She didn't have such big ambitions.
But after all, the handwriting reflects the person.
"Sister Cui Xin, I'm very worried about Empress Su. Can you take me there?" Yun Zhuan's face was filled with pure and calm worry and sorrow.
Seems to be worried about Concubine Su.
Cui Xin looked at Princess Yuling and saw that she had no bad intentions. She was a little hesitant:
"But the queen did not ask me to invite the princess over..."
Yun Ju'an's clear and beautiful voice stretched out: "Oh, what's that? I will definitely not let Empress Su blame my sister when the time comes. Empress Su loves me the most!"
Cui Xin lowered her head, thought for a while, and finally agreed: "Princess, please follow me..."
Don’t you like it?
Offering incense every day, the goddess has one more person in her heart.
If she was told that her master did not appreciate Princess Yuling, she would not believe it.
If this can make the master act more cautiously and calmly, it will be a token of my gratitude as a servant.
Concubine Su had been wiping her sword in the same posture for several hours.
All that flashed through my mind were the little thoughts I had when I was pregnant.
How much she was looking forward to that life, but it was so easily destroyed by that bastard's hands!
Just add one more medicine to her pregnancy-preserving medicine every day.
Over time, the pregnancy-preserving medicine will become an abortion-inducing medicine.
Because the child is weak and cannot be supplemented, and coupled with some other stimulation, he will definitely have a miscarriage!
Even the imperial physician could not figure it out, after all, a slight error in dosage could lead to a huge mistake.
Concubine Su's eyes were filled with tears, which rolled down onto the sword.
It licked the rain, licked the blood, and licked the mud.
This was the first time I tasted my master's tears.
When Yun Zhuan was brought in, he saw this scene: the imperial concubine was sitting alone on the couch, holding a precious sword in her arms and a silk cloth, crying.
Outside, the sound of the wind whistling through the long night seemed to be inaudible.
How to understand the pain of losing a daughter?
The soul of the Su family's female warrior is burning
