The day after the ceremony.
"Cousin, you are so kind to me..." Tang Miaoling couldn't kneel down because she broke her leg. After Ning Wanyin asked the emperor for permission, she was exempted from the sacrificial ceremonies for the next two days.
She managed to order the eunuch to carry her on a stretcher to Lingxue Pavilion.
"Your leg is still injured, so it's inconvenient for you to travel." Ning Wanyin looked at her with some surprise.
Tang Miaoling's eyes were filled with tears. "Cousin, you helped me get revenge, and I will always remember it. When my leg is healed, I will definitely repay you for your kindness!"
Her cousin is still the killer who kills anyone she catches!
But this time the person killed was the one who bullied her, so she immediately stopped being timid and even showed her loyalty by carrying him.
"You should take good care of your injuries." Ning Wanyin replied casually.
Tang Miaoling kept whispering to Ning Wanyin for a long time, mostly cursing Concubine Zhu for getting what she deserved, and then praising her cousin crazily, saying, "You're so awesome, you're so great, you're the brightest light in my life!"
Finally, he remembered one thing, "Cousin, my father sent me a letter two days ago. He asked me to get closer to you, but isn't that nonsense? You are my cousin who is closer to me than my father..."
Marquis of Changping?
Ning Wanyin's eyes flickered slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
The Tang family has spies in the capital. Although they are far away in the northwest, they must be aware of the situation in the harem.
Marquis Changping not only did not let Tang Miaoling try to win favor, he also asked her to make friends with him. After weighing the pros and cons, the entire Tang family temporarily decided to put her in the lead.
In fact, the emperor may have already tested Marquis Changping.
Marquis Changping wanted Tang Miaoling to be close to him, which meant he chose the emperor.
Ning Wanyin quickly calculated the changes in the situation in her mind.
The emperor should be very satisfied with the current situation.
He needs more military power.
As for the future power of the Tang family?
Ning Wanyin is not the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. After all, there is a layer of separation between them, so she can still check and balance the Tang family.
…
Biluoxuan.
Concubine Shi went crazy and smashed all the mirrors, glass screens and other objects in the bedroom that could reflect her image to pieces, then broke down and cried.
The palace maids and eunuchs knelt on the ground.
Her personal maid Liuying said hurriedly, "Master, you can't cry. The wound will affect..."
"It can't be cured anyway, so what if it gets worse?" Lady Shi said in a daze.
The imperial physician diagnosed that even if the wound on her face healed, the burn scars would not go away...
Her face is ruined!
"Ning Wanyin...it was she who harmed me! It was her!" There was a piercing hatred in Lady Shi's eyes.
She brought this kerosene from outside the palace.
He originally wanted to harm Ning Wanyin, but ended up disfiguring himself...
"Wei Yingya is also a fool! Even Ning Wanyin found out about this... She deserves to die..." Lady Shi also hated Wei Yingya.
Suspect she is not doing her job well.
"My face... No, I don't believe it... Send a message to my parents, and find the best doctor! Find the best medicine! There are so many folk remedies, there must be one that works!" Lady Shi couldn't accept the fact that she was disfigured. She looked crazy and grabbed the palace maid's hand and said:
"Hurry, write a letter to my parents..."
…
In the middle of early winter, the first snow of winter fell in the middle of the night.
In the morning, the entire palace was covered in silver.
Ning Wanyin moved into the warm room a few days ago.
It was snowing heavily outside the window, but she was only wearing a red maple-colored, gold-woven, double-breasted, wide-sleeved, waisted dress, which was neither too thick nor too thin and was just right for autumn.
"Master, Xiao Xiazi has set up the stove in front of the windowsill, and put the most crystal white snow from the plum blossoms and plum branches into the jar." Lian Rui smiled and said:
"The small kitchen has also prepared eight meat and vegetable snacks, four sweet and four salty, all of which are the favorites of the master and His Majesty."
"As for the snow in the courtyard, you instructed us to only clean one corridor so as not to spoil your Majesty's enjoyment of the snow."
Ning Wanyin was playing a chess game on the board and nodded, "Everyone has worked hard. There is a reward--"
Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest.
The first snow in Dayan is a very auspicious symbol.
Who the emperor shared the first snow with became a "favor" that the concubines in the harem competed for.
However, early this morning, news came from the imperial court that His Majesty would have lunch in Lingxue Pavilion at noon.
The concubines were not surprised.
At noon, the holy carriage arrived as promised.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be well and healthy!" Ning Wanyin bowed respectfully in front of the gate of Yonghe Palace.
Helian Qi took her hand and stood up, "It's snowing heavily outside, didn't I exempt you from going out to greet me?"
"But I want to see Your Majesty earlier..." Ning Wanyin's cheeks flushed slightly.
The emperor and his concubine entered Lingxue Pavilion together.
Sit down in front of the window.
Lian Rui served tea to the two masters and introduced, "This is the plum blossom tea that the master specially ordered to be boiled with snow water according to ancient books. Please taste it, Your Majesty."
Helian Qi usually has some leisure time and hobbies, so he also developed some interest.
It's snowing heavily outside the window, and the snow scene is amazing.
In the pavilion, we drink tea, play chess and chat.
The atmosphere is warm.
Suddenly, Wang Degui hurried in and reported, "Your Majesty! Lady Wen suddenly had a high fever. The imperial physician has gone and said that Lady Wen has caught a cold and is not feeling well."
Helian Qi's eyes turned slightly cold, "Let's go and take a look."
…
The hall on the left side of Jiangyun Palace is Ranfeng Pavilion.
Ning Wanyin accompanied the emperor.
The first thing Ning Wanyin felt when she entered the palace was a chill that penetrated her bones. At a glance, she saw four charcoal braziers in the room. Logically, the whole bedroom should be warm enough, so it shouldn't be so cold.
"Your Majesty, the dragon fetus is fine, but Lady Wen has caught a cold due to the cold. I have already prescribed some medicine for her. She needs to keep warm to prevent the cold and to avoid harming the fetus." The imperial physician took her pulse and reported.
Helian Qi glanced at the head nanny of Ranfeng Pavilion, "What's going on?"
"There have been four charcoal braziers in the Beauty's Palace since the beginning of winter. I didn't know about this." The nanny also looked a little confused.
Lady Wen lay sickly on the couch, looking weak and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I cannot get up and perform the ceremony..."
She glanced at Ning Wanyin, and a flash of coldness flashed in her eyes.
But on the surface, she looks weak and fragile.
"No thanks, just lie down and do your best." Helian Qi said.
A maidservant beside Lady Wen knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Dyeing Maple Pavilion is too cold! The master has caught a cold because of this. For the sake of the master and the young master, please move the master to a palace with a warm pavilion."
Ning Wanyin understood instantly.
No wonder it's cold in this room.
The charcoal brazier was actually enough to keep warm. Otherwise, wouldn't all the concubines below the rank of concubine have frozen to death?
In order to take care of the pregnant woman, the emperor specially ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send smokeless and odorless silver charcoal.
Some concubines of lower rank may not have enough charcoal...
But the charcoal here from Lady Wen is the best and definitely sufficient.
Can freeze...
Unless she moved the charcoal brazier out in the middle of the night?
Lady Wen rebuked him, "Don't talk nonsense in front of His Majesty! Only the main hall of the palace has a warm room. I am just a beauty, how can I live in the main hall?"
