Jiang Rao has been suspicious of one thing recently.
She knew her dreams were but fragments.
So... what are the details that she didn't dream about
Even if things really unfolded according to the dream, would Rong Ting still be as kind and gentle as he is now
It's a pity that no matter how much she thought about it, this question was ultimately unsolvable.
Jiang Rao's heart was so heavy that he couldn't breathe, and his expression became serious.
Sometimes it is too difficult to tell right from wrong.
The person who treated her very badly in the dream treats her very well now.
And she used to be terrified, but now she actually started to stand by him, only wanting to find his favor.
She picked up the cup on the table again, took two sips of tea, and suppressed all the thoughts in her heart.
Those dark guards in Tsing Yi... She doesn't know how to check or ask.
Don't ask, don't ask.
She saved her life and reputation because of the people he arranged around her, and these were enough to overcome the slightest suspicion and confusion in her heart.
There are some things that he doesn't want her to know. Since she has decided that he will not hurt her and scare her, but will only care for her and love her, then she doesn't need to know.
Just reassure him.
The tea has been left for a long time, and it has turned from scalding to lukewarm.
Jiang Rao drank a few sips of warm herbal tea, and her fluctuating mood gradually settled down.
She was not very entangled in nature, and her heart was so stuffy these days that it almost turned into moldy wet wood in the rainy season. At this moment, she finally became enlightened and felt much more at ease.
She slowly put down the teacup, put aside what was on her mind, remembered what Concubine Yun Gui said just now, and said softly: "There are some people outside who say this, but not many, they are nothing more than gossips that are easy to listen to and believe. Those people are mostly mediocre and like to tell stories. As long as my aunt is happy, don't pay attention to the gossip outside."
When the seventeenth prince and Xu Guozhang have an accident, more and more people will be able to see the truth.
Even if the world can't see clearly, now that the empress is gone, at least there will be no injustice in the history books.
The voice moistened by the tea was exceptionally soft. Concubine Yun Gui smiled lightly, glanced at Jiang Rao, and stopped talking.
She didn't seem to care about Jiang Rao and never reminded her.
Once Emperor Zhaowu died, he could be the heir apparent in the future, possibly her husband.
As for the succession of the throne, it has been uncertain since ancient times, she did not dare to say anything in advance, she could only take one step at a time, if the person who succeeds in the end is really Rong Ting, she can't say whether she is willing or not.
If Rong Ting is the successor, she will benefit immensely.
It's just that she was tired of living in the palace, and she didn't want Jiang Rao to do the same.
She was extremely unwilling for Jiang Rao to live the life she lived.
Emperor Zhaowu and Empress Jiahe can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. Didn't he show any affection for the empress in the end
Even if she is the one who benefits, the empress's hypocrisy will not be seen, but it is not uncommon for her childhood sweetheart to be with her all the time and her old age to hate her.
She wanted to remind Jiang Rao, but she didn't want to scare her with unwarranted guesses. When Jiang Rao made such a call, she just smiled and said nothing.
The little girl saw things clearly by herself, and she didn't need to point fingers and make arrangements for her.
Concubine Yun held her cheeks and looked at Jiang Rao for a while, then said with a smile, "Don't worry about what's going on outside, I'm just joking."
She summoned a maid serving in Jinxiu Palace, and said: "Recently, the new angelica tea in the palace, bring some here."
When the maid left, she held her face and smiled, and looked back in Jiang Rao's direction, "This angelica tea is very suitable for nourishing your body. You take it home, remember to drink it often."
Jiang Rao was relieved to hear that Concubine Yun didn't mention the booklet anymore, and nodded in agreement.
…
Coming out of Shuxiang Palace, when Jiang Rao left the palace, he passed Jinxiu Palace.
She didn't look inside, but when the sedan chair passed by, the maid inside took a look outside, and told Empress Jiahe what Jiang Rao had passed by.
Empress Jiahe sat by the window, her temples were disheveled, and her face was haggard. After hearing the news from the palace maid, she turned her head slightly and sneered repeatedly, "It's just a little bit of power for a while, so I came to see my joke."
She suddenly closed her eyes, unable to curse anymore.
Thinking of the seventeenth prince being imprisoned now, she clenched her fingers tightly with a look of resentment.
Now not only Jiang Rao can see her jokes, how many people are not watching her jokes inside and outside the palace
One wrong step, one wrong step.
So what if her methods are inferior? She has been here for so many years. Without these methods, how could she sit on the queen's seat
Everyone in this palace is like this, who can be cleaner than the other, she is the most suitable queen to be in charge of Fengyin.
Emperor Zhaowu handed over the Phoenix Seal to Qin Yun's charming son, obviously to let the world laugh at him for being greedy for beauty and being absurd.
She hates it so much!
Jiahe Empress suddenly coughed heavily, without interruption, almost coughing up all the internal organs.
The servant girl who used to be by her side to take care of every detail, but now she has not stepped forward. Ren Jia and the queen coughed so badly that they did not move at all.
If a concubine is in the harem, if she loses the emperor's favor and something happens to her natal family, she will have no reliance on her in the palace.
Empress Jiahe cursed something snobby in her heart.
She knew in her heart how difficult it would be for someone who had nothing to rely on to survive in the palace where Mu Qiang bullied the weak.
It is not only difficult, it is true to say that people can be bullied.
She knew this in her heart, so she dared to use insidious means to deal with Rong Ting, who was just a child back then.
Who made his biological mother die early, and there was no family power behind his biological mother. Emperor Zhaowu only took care of him for a while when he was just born, and soon set his sights on Chaotang and other children. That child , Just like ants on the ground, they won't attract much attention and care if they are trampled to death.
But she didn't expect that one day she would fall into this situation.
Obviously she is a noble daughter from a noble family, she was born not to be wronged...
Empress Jiahe coughed for a long time before stopping, her pale lips trembling uncontrollably, tears overflowing from her eyes, "Find someone to bring a message to Yuan'er, so that no matter how much it hurts him, don't admit that he committed a crime." wrong."
She was used to ordering domineeringly in front of maids and eunuchs, and in this situation, she still had an orderly tone that could not be refuted.
But when she saw that the court lady was just listening and didn't move out, her heart became confused, her voice softened, and she begged: "Tongxiu, you have been with Bengong for so many years, and Bengong has never I have treated you badly, so you can help me, if Yuan'er is safe and sound, sooner or later I will be ashamed, and your benefits will be indispensable."
The court lady named Tongxiu silently walked out of the inner room and out of Jinxiu Palace.
But she didn't follow Jiahe Queen's words and really tried to spread her words. Instead, she found other maids in the palace and chatted with them for a few words.
After returning to Jinxiu Palace, Empress Jiahe asked her if she had brought the news, and she perfunctorily said that it had already been brought.
Those who can survive in the palace have more or less good eyesight.
She still stayed in Jinxiu Palace to serve, and could not be assigned to other palaces.
It's unlucky enough, if you work for the queen again, you will be implicated in the crime... just because of the sweetness that the queen gave verbally, it is really unnecessary.
Inside and outside the imperial city, where is it not a place where Mu Qiang bullies the weak
In the past, no one extended a helping hand to the young Rong Ting, but now no one extended a helping hand to the queen.
…
On the way Jiang Rao returned home, there was a drizzle on the street.
The rain is like needles, the stitches are soft and dense, falling on the bluestone slabs on the ground, it melts in instantly, weaving the color of the bluestone roads in the whole street from indigo gray to blue.
A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org
Listening to the sound of rain, Jiang Rao lifted the curtain of the car and took a look outside.
The city is full of misty rain, and the shops on the other side of the street look hazy and graceful, but the leaves of the poplar and willow trees on the street are as green as wax after being washed.
Jiang Rao originally liked to look at the misty and rainy scenery, the sky was blue and the grass was green. Once he saw it, he would be in a good mood. After getting acquainted with Rong Ting, she gradually lost this mood.
People who have injured their legs are most afraid of rainy weather.
Even after Rong Ting recovered, he always behaved like an ordinary person, and never complained of leg injury and leg pain.
But a while ago, didn't he have been sick for so long
Although Jiang Rao didn't have many references, even if she was as weak as her, if she got sick, she would be fine in at least three or four days if she took medicine... Thinking about it this way, his body... must have left the root of the disease, so he got sick Just been sick for so long.
Jiang Rao thought about it, and then looked at the rain outside, no matter how blue the sky was and how green the leaves were, she was still depressed, so she asked the coachman to change the route and went to the hospital.
She stayed in the medical hall for two minutes, and her body was soaked in the smell of medicine.
It was evening when Rong Ting returned to the mansion. His cloak was soaked in the rain, and there were faint water marks on the shoulders and corners of the clothes. He noticed the smell of medicine on Jiang Rao's body, so he took off the cloak for a while, "I went to Concubine Yun Gui today. ?”
The voice is low and gentle, and the tone seems to be asking casually.
Jiang Rao nodded, stretched out her hand, tiptoed slightly, and took off the cloak for him.
As she was so close to him, the smell of medicine on her body became more obvious.
Naturally, he wouldn't hate the smell of her body, but in Shuxiang Palace, there shouldn't be this herbal smell.
Rong Ting's eyes dimmed a little, Jiang Rao took his cloak away, and said in a tone of reproach, "You're not fully recovered from your illness, it's raining outside, why don't you hold an umbrella?"
Rong Ting said lightly, "I came back too quickly."
After dinner, Jiang Rao went out for a trip, and when he came back, he had an extra medicine bowl in his hand.
She handed the medicine bowl to Rong Ting, holding her breath and didn't want to ask about the bitter taste of the medicine, "I saw it was raining outside, so I went to the medical clinic and brought back some tonics."
Rong Ting took the medicine and looked down at the medicine bowl.
Originally, I wanted to ask the dark guard where she went besides going to Shuxiang Palace...
After all, the smell of medicine on her body definitely did not come from Shuxiang Palace.
It turned out that he went to the hospital to get medicine for him.
People who have eaten a lot of bitterness can feel satisfied with a little sweetness.
He has nothing to be afraid of, except that he will never have these sweets again in the future.
After the Shangsi Festival, she had something on her mind, and he had always known this.
At first, I thought she was depressed because she was attacked and frightened.
It can be seen that she was eager to ask about the results of the interrogation of the Seventeenth Prince, and her bright eyebrows and eyes had nothing to do with fear.
If he hadn't known her nature, he would have even misunderstood that she had set the hook first, causing the Seventeenth Prince to act recklessly.
She has been feigning her thoughts for a few days, and it will be fine if she goes to Shuxiang Palace. She really likes her aunt very much, and she can be made happy just by going to see her. Will you be happy with this medicine?"
The comparison in his tone is only known to him. Jiang Rao is not a roundworm in his stomach. I don't know what he is thinking in his heart. Looking at his downcast brows and eyes, he thinks he doesn't want to drink this medicine. He ordered the table, and urged: "Isn't your knee uncomfortable when it's rainy? If you hesitate any longer, the medicine will be cold and even harder to drink. I'm naturally happy when you recover."
Rong Ting waited until he heard the last sentence before moving. He raised the bowl and drank the medicine in the medicine bowl in one gulp.
His arms dropped, and he put the empty medicine bowl on the table. A few longans rolled over on the table. When he raised his eyes slightly, he saw Jiang Rao lying on the table, playing with the longan in his hand. Rolling to his side one by one, she laughed as soon as she met his gaze, "You use longan to suppress the taste of medicine."
Rong Ting held those longan in his hand, pressed the thin skin of the longan with his fingertips, and rubbed it twice.
He just watched the little girl laughing in front of him, and the feeling of annoyance in his heart receded just now.
She... She should be considered happy by him.
His complexion became much prettier, and the feeling of caring about Concubine Yun Gui in his heart also weakened, his thin lips curled up slightly, and he held the unpeeled longan between his fingers to play with.
Although it was clenched in the hand, it did not peel off.
Years of being with the medicine made him used to the bitter taste of the medicine, and his dislike of sweet taste has not changed.
Jiang Rao saw that he just held the longan in his hand and played with it, neither peeled nor ate it, no matter how well he usually concealed it, she could tell his general taste.
Although I don't know what I prefer, but at least I don't like sweet things.
"Today I brought delicious tea back from Shuxiang Palace, do you want to drink it?"
He was always so good to feed that she always wanted to feed him more.
Besides, she tasted the angelica tea, and it tasted really good.
"What tea?"
"Danggui tea, I heard it came from Lingnan as a tribute. I tasted some, and it's really good. If you add some honey to it, it tastes very sweet. If you want to drink it, I will ask the servant girl to remove all the goji berries and red dates in it." Already, boil some in clear spring water."
After Jiang Rao finished speaking, she paid attention to whether Rong Ting would agree.
She had asked him before if he liked sweet things.
At that time, he nodded without thinking much, but after thinking about it, she always felt that he was taking care of her taste.
If he agreed to remove the red dates and goji berries in the angelica tea this time, she would almost know that he really doesn't like sweet things.
But Rong Ting didn't speak for a long time, but frowned slightly, looking at Jiang Rao strangely.
His eyes were like cold stars, Jiang Rao was stunned by him.
He... doesn't he know what's going on in her heart
He's so smart that he can't help but see...
But how could it be so easy to see what she was thinking
Jiang Rao got up, found tea, made a pot with hot water, poured a cup and put it in front of Rong Ting, "This tea is said to be for nourishing the body. Since it is good for the body, why don't you try it? If you like it , I can bring some to your government office..."
Rong Ting coughed and interrupted her, "You really don't know... what kind of tea is this?"
"Isn't it angelica tea?" Jiang Rao looked confused.
"Danggui, red dates, motherwort." Rong Ting pinched the teacup with his fingers, shook it a few times, raised his fingers again, and picked up the lid of the purple sand pot on the table.
He looked at Qingqinghonghong floating in the water, and smiled slightly.
The low laughter made Jiang Rao troubled and uneasy.
He put down the teacup, stood up, walked to the door, closed the door, and returned to the inner room.
Jiang Rao was still sitting at the table, huddled next to the purple clay pot, watching the dried red dates bouncing up and down in the tea, with a puzzled face.
She thought about Angelica Red Date Motherwort several times, but she still couldn't figure out what's so funny about the names of these herbs.
Rong Ting looked at her ignorant and ignorant appearance and wanted to tease her. She is not stupid, but she is too lazy. After being married for so long, she has no consciousness of being a wife. She has not done any homework, and dare not tease her even if she wants to He was too ruthless, afraid of getting angry, he bent slightly, and approached Jiang Rao's ear, "The angelica tea that the imperial concubine gave you is both tea and medicine."
Angelica is a common name in medicinal materials. Since it has the effect of recuperating, Jiang Rao is not surprised to say that these things can be used as medicine.
It can be made into medicine, so there's nothing funny about it
Jiang Rao tilted her head, just in time to see Rong Ting bent over more deeply, her thin lips were close to her ear, her voice was extremely low, so deep and ambiguous, "Angelica, red dates, motherwort, these combined, for a woman's Physical recuperation is the most beneficial, and folks say that it is... beneficial to conception."
He had seen too many secret affairs in the harem, and before he married her back, he was always worried that someone would use those methods on her, so he paid extra attention to those medicines and ingredients that were beneficial or harmful to a woman's body.
She is concerned about everything about the people and things that she cares about, and she is dumbfounded when it comes to her own affairs.
Although he was dissatisfied that she had so many people in her heart and took his place in her heart a lot, but he was also faintly happy because he saw her temperament.
The only person who can protect her best is him.
Jiang Rao's breathing was stagnant, and the tips of her ears turned red instantly.
Good for conception…
Fortunately, when she was leaving, she was still thankful that her aunt didn't stuff indecent pamphlets into her hands.
What's stuffed in here is not as good as a booklet!
She still knows to keep the pamphlet, and she thinks this tea is a serious health-preserving tea. After coming back, she cooked it and tasted it, and she still thought it tasted good...
No wonder her aunt had such a deep smile on her face when she left Shuxiang Palace.
"I... I..." Jiang Rao murmured twice, not knowing how to explain it. It took a long time to come back to her senses, and the red tips of her ears hadn't faded away, "I really don't know, it's the first time I know today."
Her heart was in a mess, and even her words were also in a mess.
"I think… "
At this moment, Jiang Rao was eager to let Ting talk to her about something else, so she hurriedly asked, "What do you think?"
When she turned around, she gave Rong Ting a chance to hug her by the waist.
"child."
He hugged her...to the couch, half leaning on the upright of the Babu bed, and asked Jiang Rao to face him, with gloomy and longing eyes, "I want to have a child."
Jiang Rao blushed, and her heart trembled because of the way he looked at her.
She was afraid of crushing his injured leg, and she didn't know where to put her leg, so she subconsciously refused, "On a rainy day, your leg..."
"No problem."
He watched her desperately trying to move her knees aside, trying not to press him, but knelt on the bed in a hurry, suddenly laughed, rubbed her head, and didn't let go of her hands after rubbing, and pressed down She lowered her head and placed a light kiss on her forehead.
He wrapped his other hand around her waist, and kissed down a little bit. Nothing can make him feel more at ease than holding her in his arms. Until then, when he kissed her and hugged her, he always used his energy Throwing his life away, he pinched the back of Jiang Rao's head with his fingers, and plundered like crazy.
Jiang Rao's hairpin fell to the side with a snap, her sideburns were loose, and the tip of her tongue was numb. When she slightly loosened the grip on the back of her head, she heard him calling her heart.
A little hoarse voice, especially deep and sexy.
Her legs went limp, her waist was imprisoned in his hands, she couldn't escape, she felt that she couldn't hide, and gradually stopped struggling.
There was the sound of clothes being taken off, and the sound of his breathing getting heavier and heavier.
There is also rain outside and wind outside.
The rain hasn't stopped, just listening to the crackling rain, one can imagine how dark it is outside and how damp the walls are.
She hadn't tasted the discomfort of her knees in a rainy day, but even if she hadn't, the thought of his physical discomfort in this kind of weather made her feel uncomfortable.
Only two white coats were missing from her body. Underwear is all there. The tie at the neckline has been loosely //bited// open.
Jiang Rao's eyelids drooped, and she suddenly raised her hand to hold Rong Ting's face.
"Me." After she said a word, she paused for a while, and her earlobes and backs were so red that it took only one word.
She swallowed, and said all the rest in one breath, "I'll do it, don't move."
Rong Ting's body tensed up, his deep and dark eyes fixed on Jiang Rao, and his Adam's apple moved slightly.
Subconsciously, he didn't take her words seriously, but stared at the little girl's movements with gloomy eyes.
Jiang Rao's face was still flushed, her lips were moist and soft, she lowered her eyelids, bit her lower lip and her teeth were slightly loose, she didn't know where to find courage and strength, she pressed her hands on his shoulders, and pushed him from half leaning Pushing the bed upright, he pushed it into a position of completely leaning on the bed.
She glanced away and didn't dare to look at him, and because she was inexperienced, she was afraid that her posture would be wrong, and she had to glance at him a few times if she wanted to follow exactly what was drawn in the booklet.
Xing's eyes were glistening, like a lake blown by the wind, the eyes flickered, and her white and soft cheeks became red and hot, so hot that she felt like she was going to smoke from the top of her head.
Rong Ting's breathing became much heavier.
He watched her move and realized that she was not talking nonsense at all.
His forehead was tense, and blue veins appeared faintly. After a while, his voice was hoarse, and he asked, "You will?"
Jiang Rao bit her lip for a while, and finally nodded as if she had made up her mind.
Her fingers trembled inexplicably, and she couldn't unbutton the half-loosed little coat for a long time, her expression gradually became a little more difficult, she shook her hands and quit, and lowered her head to untie his.
When she lowered her head, the untied blue silk hung down layer by layer like a waterfall, covering her hands on Rong Ting's shoulders. Her movements were full of clumsiness and rustiness, and her voice trembled slightly but implied firmness. He argued: "I will."
