"If my sister had harmed you, you wouldn't be alive today!" Rong Xiang walked out of the darkness. Years of military experience gave him an iron-blooded aura unique to soldiers. He stared at the man who kept shouting indifferently.
Yilan, "What does it mean to repay kindness with hatred? Today I finally saw it with my own eyes. Having a sister like you is a lifelong shame!"
Yilan chuckled and tears fell from her eyes. Even though she had isolated herself from Rong Xiang and the others in her heart, she still couldn't help but feel a throbbing pain in her heart when she heard these words. She said in her mouth: "As you do,
It’s ridiculous to say that I still have to thank her.”
"Ruo'er has never thought of harming you." Rong Lu sighed deeply, "Everywhere in the palace and harem is not full of plots and fights. The women who live there must not only be beautiful and scheming, but also be patient and endure.
What ordinary people cannot do, even if the other party causes you to lose your children, lose all favors, and become nothing, you must continue to endure it until the day you can avenge it. Yilan, with your character, you think you can endure it.
Is that the point?"
Yilan's eyelids twitched, but she said: "If Niu Hulu Ling can do it, I can do it too."
"Impossible!" Ronglu shook his head and said these words without hesitation, "Look at you now, you are already angry after being slightly wronged. Yilan, your life has been so smooth, Ama
E Niang dotes on you and relies on you in everything, so
It makes you focus on yourself in everything. If you are not satisfied, you will feel that others owe you, and you will hold a grudge in your heart. Later, when you married Li Yaoguang, he also doted on you and respected you. In the past ten years, he never paid you any money even if you had nothing to do.
A concubine. What happened next,
Although Li Yaoguang was wrong, you were even more wrong in beating your mother-in-law. You can't even tolerate one concubine, so how can you tolerate the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards with countless concubines? Yilan, your jealousy is too strong. Yes,
If Ruo'er didn't have b back then,
i You married Yaoguang, but you were allowed to enter the Yongwang Palace. Today you may be in a high position and become the empress of the first palace; but the greater possibility is that you have died in the endless infighting. Jealousy will
You are led into an abyss."
The further back, the colder Rong Lu's words became. By the time he reached the back, there was already a chill, which sounded particularly chilly in this dark and hot cell.
Yilan stared at Ronglu with a pale face, her lips trembling as she tried to find words to refute Ronglu, but in the end no sound came out.
She had to admit that Ronglu was right, she was jealous, she was jealous of any woman who was not favored by her husband, so she made a big fuss in the Li family and would rather be abandoned than allow Li Yaoguang to take a concubine.
If it were Yinzhen...
Yilan suddenly shuddered, and the coldness surged up from the soles of her feet, condensing the blood into ice bit by bit. Not to mention how Yinzhen would deal with it, the queen would never let her go. That woman was too terrifying.
People can fight her.
Suddenly, Yilan remembered what Ling Ruo had said to herself many years ago - you are my sister's only biological sister. How could my sister let you suffer this injustice? Either you will not marry, or you will marry as your official wife, with three rules and six etiquette.
The media is getting married.
At that time, she only felt that her sister was hypocritical and duplicitous. On the surface, she said she was thinking about her, but in fact, she didn't want her to join the government and dilute Yinzhen's favor.
But when she thought about it now, she suddenly understood that her sister understood her own character, was arrogant and self-indulgent, and was not suitable for being a concubine, so she tried every means to choose Li Yaoguang as her husband.
After being married for ten years, Li Yaoguang treated her very well, was gentle and considerate, and put her first in everything. If she hadn't beaten Li's mother that day, and Li's mother wanted to die, he would never have written the divorce letter.
For the first time in her life, Yilan regretted what she had done, but it was too late. Amma and the others would not forgive her, Yaoguang...
Thinking of this man, the tip of Yilan's nose felt sore. If she could turn back time, she would definitely not be so willful. She would probably never see him again in this life. She only pitied her child. Even if she had the chance to give birth, I'm afraid she wouldn't be so willful.
A chance to meet his father.
"It's time to eat!" There is no distinction between day and night in the cell, which is always shrouded in darkness. The jailer will bring two meals a day, a large bowl of brown rice and a bowl of soup with only a few pickle leaves visible.
Able to be full.
Ronglu took the rice and soup prepared by the jailer from the fence and said: "Ama'er mother, it's time to eat."
Ling Zhu was furious when he saw Yilan huddled in the opposite corner, and said bitterly: "If you don't eat, I'm already full of anger."
"Master." Mrs. Fucha pushed him gently and said, "No matter how angry you are, you can't go against yourself. Besides, if you eat, how dare Ronglu and the others eat it."
After she persuaded him for a long time, Ling Zhufang barely suppressed his anger, took the rice handed by Ronglu and started eating. There would be a few broken porcelain bowls and chopsticks placed in each cell for people to share the rice.
After giving everyone a bowl, Ronglu hesitated for a moment, then picked up his own bowl and put it in front of Yilan, saying in a low voice: "This is the only thing we can eat here. At least it can fill our stomachs."
His move was naturally noticed by Ling Zhu, who snorted coldly and said: "It doesn't matter what she does, it's just right for this kind of person to let her starve to death!"
Yilan raised her head from her knees. It was only at this moment that Ronglu realized that there were wet tears on her face and her expression was desolate. After all, she was the sister he had watched since she was a child. Seeing her like this, Ronglu
Feeling uncomfortable, he patted her shoulder and said: "Amma is just saying angry words, don't take it seriously, just eat it quickly."
Since being imprisoned, Yilan has not eaten anything, and she was already hungry. However, she did not go to get it immediately, but looked at Ronglu with complicated eyes. For a long time, a weak voice came from the bloodless face.
From his lips, "Don't you blame me for harming Concubine Xi?"
"Are you happy?" Ronglu put chopsticks of different lengths into Yilan's hands, looked at Yilan who was silent and said, "Tell me, are you really happy after killing Concubine Xi?"
Yilan once thought that she would be very happy after dragging Ling Ruo down from the lofty throne of Concubine Xi, but it turned out that she was not. During those two months in Suzhou, although she had no worries about food and clothing, she was not happy.
She often felt lonely. At that time, her favorite thing to do was to recall the days when her family was together when she was a child. She always felt that those days were too painful.
, but later I discovered that those days were the happiest in my life. There was no sorrow, no sorrow, only the care of my family in every possible way. I still remember that every winter, my sister would take a few charcoals left from burning and put them in a
Then, she wrapped her in a cover made of old clothes and put it in her bed in advance, so that when she slept, the bed would be warm and not cold at all.
When it was hot in the summer, she was afraid of the heat and couldn't sleep, so her sister used a fan to cool her down until she fell asleep. Later, when she married into the Li family, Li Yaoguang knew that she was afraid of the heat and they couldn't afford ice at home, so she brought some ice.
Water from the well is placed in every corner to make the house a little shaded and cool.
Every day, no matter how busy he was with things in the Hanlin Academy, he would come back on time and sit by the bed with a cattail leaf fan to drive away the heat for her so that she could sleep peacefully. And for the things that he had not finished the day before, he would
I often had to get up before dawn the next day to rush to the Hanlin Academy, and often didn't even bother to eat breakfast.
In the past ten years, she had long been accustomed to all this. It was not until she left the Li family and the capital that she realized how terrible it was to be alone and to be alone. She could only rely on memories to fill the emptiness and loneliness in her heart. If it weren't for the unexpected arrival of a child in her belly,
, she no longer had any thoughts.
Looking back suddenly, it turned out that she was not ruthless towards Li Yaoguang, but she was not so passionate about it, so even she didn't notice it.
