Xia Rongxin and Liang Huanqing stood together outside the Qinzheng Palace. When she heard Liang Huanqing say those words, she guessed that she had really changed her opinion of Liang Huanqing. Why did she think that Liang Huanqing was stupid and unscheming in the first place? Originally, the city was a man of profound knowledge.

Being so wise and foolish, how could I have thought that Liang Huanqing would be a person without any scheming?

Only after Xia Rongxin entered the palace did she know how powerful the Lu family was - Lu Gaohong, the leader of the powerful officials in the court, when he was elected prime minister as a young man, he single-handedly supported the entire Lu family, assisted two generations of kings, and then himself

Lu Fushuang, her only relative, entered the East Palace as the Crown Princess.

After the death of the late emperor, Lu Fushuang was officially consecrated as the empress. She was the mother of the world and the master of the harem. She was favored by the emperor's special chamber. Among the three thousand beauties in the harem, which one was not stylish and proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting? But as long as

In front of Lu Fushuang, every one of them turned pale like frosted eggplants. She was the only one in the eyes of the emperor from beginning to end.

Lu Fushuang was loved by many people, but she didn't only have this ambition. Her brother was like a fish in water in the previous dynasty and rose to the top step by step. Lu Gaohong was not the only one who worked hard. No one can make mistakes without being a sage.

Not so smoothly.

In the early years, Lu Gaohong was suspected of buying and selling official positions, and deliberately leaked the questions during the imperial examination. As long as those merchant families were willing to spend a lot of money, they could leave their business status, and their descendants could become officials in the court, and they could wear brocade and silk clothes.

Experience the feeling of being rich but actually feeling inferior to others.

However, Lu Gaohong’s behavior was actually unfair. It caused those poor students who had studied hard for ten years and had the ability and ambition to lose opportunities. Once the matter was reported and disclosed, Lu Gaohong was a corrupt official suspected of corruption and bribery.

There was an uproar in the civil and military affairs of the court, and those merchants who bought offices were severely punished, fined, imprisoned, or removed from office and exiled. However, the mastermind Lu Gaohong was only publicly taught a few words by the emperor and left the matter behind.

Others only said that the emperor cherished his talents. After all, he was chosen as prime minister at a young age. This was an unprecedented and unprecedented thing. The emperor did not want to punish Lu Gaohong.

But Xia Rongxin knew that the emperor had always adhered to the principle that the emperor's crimes should be punished by the common people. There was no reason for such a big thing, but Lu Gaohong was not severely punished. This was because of Lu Fushuang's intervention.

As soon as Lu Gaohong's accident happened, Lu Fushuang went to Qi Bingyu with a pale face. Everyone knew that Qi Bingyu loved Lu Fushuang very much. When a minister wrote a letter to impeach Lu Gaohong, Qi Bingyu was also very surprised, with a look of doubt on his face.

Looking at Lu Gaohong, in his eyes, it was impossible for Lu Gaohong to do such a thing.

But when all the evidence was piled up in front of him, Qi Bingyu just looked at Lu Gaohong with a disappointed face, and then went to court. He wanted to talk to Lu Gaohong privately and wanted to know what misunderstanding there was.

But before those conclusive evidences, Lu Gaohong couldn't quibble, and Qi Bingyu didn't know how to deal with him. After returning to the palace, Lu Fushuang went to his Qinzheng Palace. As for why Lu Fushuang was able to know what happened in the court so quickly

Regarding the matter, we need to sort out the close communication between these two people.

After Lu Fushuang learned about this, she tried her best to plead for her brother. Qi Bingyu loved her to the core, but Lu Fushuang had only used her tricks for a little while, and Qi Bingyu surrendered and ordered the punishment of those people who wanted to buy jobs.

The merchants were subsequently dismissed from their posts and sent into exile, and so on, all of which were intended to scare the monkeys. However, Lu Gaohong, the mastermind of selling his official posts, was not punished at all.

This can't help but make people feel unfair, but regarding this matter, it was Qi Bingyu who withstood all the pressure and saved Lu Gaohong.

But just because of this, after Lu Fushuang knew that she and her brother would not be punished for anything they did, she became even more arrogant and instigated Lu Gaohong to accept salaries privately, let her tribesmen come to Beijing as officials, buy fields, and purchase property.

Mansion, and placing his own spies throughout the imperial court. As long as this is done, he can greatly avoid the problem of someone impeaching him.

Lu Gaohong naturally knew this. Knowing that his sister Lu Fushuang was in the harem, the emperor would not seriously punish him anyway, so he became even more unscrupulous. If something happened accidentally, he and his sister Lu Fushuang had been dependent on each other since childhood.

They only understand the preciousness of family ties best. Even though Lu Fushuang is now married to the emperor and is the queen of the Celestial Dynasty, she has always tried her best to help her brother.

If any well-established beautiful girl came to the palace, Lu Gaohong would also take special care of her in the court. Lu Gaohong deceived her and combined with the queen in the harem, she became more powerful than before, but many people who entered the palace

The concubine also knew that if she offended the queen, her entire family would be ruined, so she always followed the queen and was willing to pave the way for her.

The concubines in the harem were afraid that their family would be retaliated by Lu Gaohong, so they did not dare to compete with the queen for favor. Suddenly, the names of the queen and a few Xia Rongxin were only in the book of the harem, and the rest of the concubines were all

He excused himself because he was not feeling well. He never left any impression on the emperor, so he would always be forgotten by the emperor and spend the rest of his life alone in the palace.

Xia Rongxin's mother's family is in Qinhuai, and her father has been indifferent to fame and wealth all his life. Even if Lu Gaohong wants to deal with him, he is too far away to deal with it. Besides, the emperor is not blind, so naturally he cannot be too blatant. Xia Rongxin takes advantage of it at this time.

Got the upper hand.

But after knowing the secret, Xia Rongxin became even more worried about what kind of princess she would marry Qi Jingqin in the future. In her heart, Qi Jingqin would definitely become the emperor, so the princess was really crucial.

When Xia Rongxin decided to marry Liang Huanqing, she just wanted her to be simple and kind, without any scheming, and preferably innocent. What Xia Rongxin and Qi Jingqin wanted was the power behind her, not what she did.

Xia Rongxin not only needs a woman with a superior family background who can speak in front of the emperor, but also a woman who can match Lu Gaohong in the court and help Qi Jingqin. However, Xia Rongxin values ​​​​the most in the palace, that woman.

Nature.

There are countless famous families in Beijing, and a few of them can be beaten with one slap. Half of them have family connections with the imperial court. Many of them are old officials who have retired from the previous dynasty. They have been granted the title of Imperial Master and given residences. From time to time, they enter

chatting with the emperor.

But Xia Rongxin doesn't want these people at all. Although they are in high positions, most of them are officials without real power. They are not helpful to Qi Jingqin's career at all. The daughter of their family is arrogant, mostly because of their environment.

Yes, Xia Rongxin had seen countless girls like this in the palace. They were stupid, clumsy, and arrogant. She didn't even know how they died in the end.

Xia Rongxin was dissatisfied with everyone except Liang Huanqing. She heard that she was innocent and of the right age. Although she often liked to be a little temperamental, didn't this show her true temperament? Furthermore, General Jianwei's Mansion had always been

It is incompatible with Prime Minister Lu's Mansion, which is exactly in line with Xia Rongxin's expectations.

I originally thought that Liang Huanqing was innocent and harmless, but now it seems that she has extremely deep thoughts. Even though I have been in the palace for several years, I have not clearly seen the deep meaning behind her smile.

Liang Huanqing slowly became expressionless, and then stood outside the door calmly, pretending to be a little worried, but only she knew her body best. After losing too much blood and suffering a miscarriage yesterday, she stood outside.

After such a long time, I couldn't support myself anymore. Fortunately, Yue Bai kept supporting me, so I could lean on Yue Bai more.

Yuebai supported Princess Jing and felt the weight on her hands getting heavier little by little. Although Princess Jing did not look at her, she could still tell that she was a little tired, and then she increased the strength in her hands.

Yuebai doesn't know what Liang Huanqing's ultimate goal is, but she is the one who knows Liang Huanqing best. From childhood to adulthood, no one can persuade her to do what Liang Huanqing wants to do. As long as she makes up her mind, she will definitely do it.

No matter what the outcome is, good or bad, as long as Liang Huanqing is determined to do something, he will definitely find a way to do it.

This is why Yue Bai didn't stop Liang Huanqing. Even if he stopped it, it would be useless. Liang Huanqing would still do whatever she had to do, so Yue Bai just needed to stay with her.

"Princess, can you hold on?" Maybe she is a little tired after standing for too long. Liang Huanqing is not made of iron. Even if there is always a thought in her heart, there will still be times when her body can't bear it. Liang Huanqing's forehead slowly seeps.

There was a trace of sweat, as if she was holding back something, which made Yuebai feel very distressed, so she hurriedly asked.

Liang Huanqing is now a little weak, feeling very sleepy, and desperately wants to rest. All the strength in her body is accumulated on Yue Bai, but she still stands with a dignified posture, as if she is holding on to her last breath.

Decent.

Yuebai's voice was not loud, but Concubine Mei and Aunt Yunxi who were standing nearby also heard her.

Concubine Mei turned her head and looked at Liang Huanqing. Seeing her pale face, she thought that she was also her elder. She and Yang Suying were so close back then, and it was a fate given by God that Liang Huanqing could be her daughter-in-law. Now,

Concubine Mei was not willing to take such an embarrassing step. Seeing Liang Huanqing like this, she couldn't bear it, so she reached out to help her and asked: "Huanqing, are you okay? Do you want me?"

Let the imperial doctor take a look at you?"

Refugees from outside the palace entered Shangjing. Most of the imperial doctors gathered in Qinzheng Hall have been transferred away. There are only a few imperial doctors left here. They have treated the emperor before and are most familiar with the emperor's condition. But now

Under such circumstances, there was still no way to wake up the emperor, and now everyone stood outside the door dejectedly.

Liang Huanqing first looked back at Yuebai who was supporting him behind him, smiled faintly at her, shook his head, and said softly: "It's okay, don't worry."

Then Liang Huanqing looked at the imperial doctors, then smiled apologetically to Concubine Mei and said: "Thank you, mother and concubine, for caring about me. I know my own body best. My father is more important now, not to mention... my son's."

It was Imperial Physician Shentu who saved my life, and now I am afraid that only Imperial Physician Shentu can treat my illness."

Now Liang Huanqing's tone and expression were completely different from those just now, which made people feel a little chilly. But Xia Rongxin understood what Liang Huanqing meant best. Liang Huanqing's appearance reminded everyone of the imperial doctor Shen Tuchen who brought Liang Huanqing back to life.

Liang Huanqing deliberately smiled at Shen Tuchen again, but now that he wanted Shen Tuchen to treat him, he must have said something that others could not listen to.

"Are you sure that Imperial Physician Shentu is sure to cure you?" Xia Rongxin was silent for a while, and then slowly said this sentence. She didn't know how sure Liang Huanqing was, so she involved Imperial Physician Shentu. Looking at her posture,

They just want Imperial Physician Shentu to cooperate with their plan, but according to Xia Rongxin's understanding, there is not much contact between the two of them. When I heard that Shen Tuchen saved Liang Huanqing with his life yesterday, I felt a little strange in my heart, but

Now Liang Huanqing looked confident again, as if he was sure that Shen Tuchen would participate in their plan.

Liang Huanqing just smiled, while Xia Rongxin frowned and looked at Yuebai behind her, but Yuebai quickly lowered his head and did not look directly at Concubine Mei.

"The illness that my son is suffering from now can only be cured by Imperial Physician Shentu, and the same goes for my mother and concubine. If there is any discomfort in the future, Imperial Physician Shentu will definitely be able to cure it with his superb medical skills." Liang Huanqing said meaningfully.

With such a sentence, even though her lips were bloodless, her eyes were full of energy, as if she was excited about something.

Xia Rongxin looked at Liang Huanqing as if she was possessed. She didn't know what Liang Huanqing had gone through or what Liang Huanqing wanted to do, but now, she had no way to refuse Liang Huanqing's invitation, let alone stop Liang Huanqing's actions.

It was now more than half of the day, and the early spring sun had slowly set. The imperial city, which was originally made of red bricks and glazed tiles, was illuminated by the afterglow and was resplendent. The moonlight helped Princess Jing walk to the railing outside the Qinzheng Hall, and she touched the

Looking at the green fence and the green bricks and tiles that filled the palace garden, her pale face was slightly red by the sunset, and her eyes reflected the fiery red sunset in the distance, and she slowly smiled.

There was some wind here. Liang Huanqing's thin body stood in the wind, and her large attire was blown up by the wind, almost blowing her down. Yuebai quickly supported her and called softly: "Princess, be careful!"

Yue Bai looked at Liang Huanqing like this, and couldn't help but feel distressed in her heart. She was such a spirited girl at the beginning, but now she has never been comfortable after joining the royal family. Whose fault is it?

Xia Rongxin looked at her back, and then said to Yun Xi: "Come forward and help her, she is about to fall..."

Seeing this, Xia Rongxin couldn't help but feel sorry for this girl. She had experienced so many things at the age of twenty, but she admired her even more because of this. After thinking about it, she shouldn't have regarded her too simply. Since she married

From the beginning of the palace, she had restrained herself and observed etiquette. It was completely different from the time before. She should have understood that Liang Huanqing was not a woman without any dignity.
