The Legend of Imperial Concubine Rong - C347 An accident in the harem
Rong’er thought to himself: My sorrow is still so clear, even though I have felt it many times in this palace before, why is it so painful? Yin Reng asked me, is it possible that as an emperor, I have to take in one concubine after another, and let all of them die from grief? I don’t know, I really don’t know, just what is the meaning of our existence? Was I really wrong about Yin Reng becoming his concubine? “?”
In the middle of May, Rong’er received a letter from Rong Xian, and knew that Woorgun had led the troops onto the battlefield as well. Rong Xian was also paying more and more attention to the battle at home, so it was likely that after Rong Xian married Woorgun, the emperor would often send Woorgun out to lead the troops. Rong Xian would stay home alone to handle the various matters, but he was very satisfied with the result.
The older prince, other than Yin Reng, went on the expedition as well as Yin Ti, the inner court minister Songgotu led the vanguard camp and Yin Zhi led the first batch of battalions with red flags. The older prince, other than Yin Reng, all went on the expedition as follows: Yin Ti led the inner court minister Songgotu to lead the vanguard camp and Yin Zhi led the first batch of battalions with red flags.
Since the princes were all on the march, the imperial concubine was always worried about them. Everyone had nothing else to do, so they began to search around for news of the departure. Seeing that the day for the emperor to return to the capital was approaching, everyone was happy and waiting for the emperor’s triumphant return with the princes.
On this day, the Imperial Concubine Rong was sitting leisurely among the Yonghe Palace. Because the two palaces were so close, Rong’er and the Imperial Concubine De’s relationship became closer, but Su Ya, who originally did not accompany her, hurried over and reported: “Master, it’s bad, Master Ping has disappeared!”
“What?” Rong’er looked at Su Ya in shock, “Jia Ping is gone?”
“How come Jiuping is gone?” The Imperial Concubine De asked in surprise.
“For some reason, the Yikun Palace came to report that they had disappeared after leaving the Imperial Concubine Ping for a short while. They are currently searching the palace and have sent people to report to their master.” Su Ya said anxiously.
Rong’er frowned slightly and said, “Let’s go, we’ll look for her too. It was always her who walked out of the palace.”
“Sister, I also need someone to look for us. We will find them together. We will find them very soon.” Imperial Concubine De also quickly said.
Jia Ping had lost his mind for a year or two, but instead, it had become worse. She had to be watched by someone all day, and when the Emperor ordered for her to not leave the palace, she had sneaked out to find her. Rong’er had long since ordered the palace maid s of the Yikun Palace to stay close to her, so how could she be allowed to leave?!
After Rong’er left the Yonghe Palace, he didn’t know where to go to look for him. The palace maid had already sent him out, and said to Su Ya in a low voice, “Su Ya, go ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs’s eunuchs to look around the palace. I’ll wait here in the Yikun Palace.”
Su Ya accepted the order and Rong’er sighed lightly, then said to Xiao Qing: “Go to Yikun Palace, I wonder where Jia Ping will go.”
When Rong’er and the others entered the Yikun Palace, there was only one palace maid waiting inside the palace. Everyone else left the palace to find Jia Ping, and as Rong’er sat in the palace, the uneasiness in his heart slowly spread.
“Lord Rong! Lord Rong! ” A eunuch from the Yanxi Palace quickly walked in, “Master, we’ve found Master Ping, she … “She …”
“What happened to her?” Rong’er urged her father-in-law.
“Master Ping, she drowned, I’m afraid …” He was afraid … It will be hard to survive. ” The eunuch trembled as he reported.
“What?” Rong’er quickly got up, felt dizzy, and almost fell down on the chair, Xiao Qing quickly went forward to support Rong’er.
“Take me to see Imperial Concubine Ping. Quickly go call the royal doctors.” Rong’er said weakly.
At this moment, Jia Ping was quietly lying on the bed. Her face was pale, and Rong’er was kneeling down beside his bed, gently stroking the hair plastered to his forehead with her hands, tears trickling down her face.
“Jiaoping, you can rest easy, I know you are free now, you can go see Jiuping, you are suffering, the heavens are being too unfair to you, Jiuping…” I was the one who took bad care of you, I let down the Empress Renxiao. ” Rong’er silently chanted in his heart.
A voice called out from the palace gates, “The crown prince has arrived!”
Yin Reng slowly walked into the palace, looked at Mother Rong crying on the ground, and then at Jia Ping who was quietly lying on the bed.
Rong’er didn’t look back or say anything. She was blaming herself for not taking care of Jia Ping enough. Yin Reng slowly walked to Rong’er’s side, and gently stroked her, “Mother Rong … Don’t be too sad, be careful not to hurt yourself. ”
“Reng Er…” or perhaps at her age, her son was already a form of reliance. Yin Reng gently hugged Rong’er, and couldn’t help but feel tears in his eyes, “mother, it’s her happiness that Imperial Concubine Ping is gone, has she ever been happy in this palace before? Isn’t it more painful for her to live in this palace than to die? ”
“Reng Er… It was because mother was in the wrong and did not take good care of her … I… I am sorry about your mother … I failed to take care of her sister for her! ” Rong’er’s tears became more and more intense, she felt as if her heart had been hollowed out, rather than saying that Jia Ping was Xuan Ye’s concubine. But in Rong’er’s eyes, after Jia Ping had gotten sick all these years, she had always been taking care of him as his daughter.
“Mother Rong, you don’t have to blame yourself. Isn’t this her fate? Since she joined this palace, she is destined to experience all of this. She will understand my mother right. ” Yin Reng said sorrowfully. Wan-ying’s illness was getting worse, causing him to feel depressed.
Rong’er nodded slightly. Is it fate? Had everyone in this palace lost their lives long ago?
“Mother Rong, must you really be like this when you become an Overlord? Taking in one concubine after another, pampering and trusting them, and causing them to die from grief? Mother Rong, did emperors really have to do this? Because if I want to be an emperor, can’t I be the only one to spoil Wanying? ”
Rong’er’s tears fell uncontrollably, “Reng Er, this mother doesn’t know. This mother really doesn’t know. This mother doesn’t know anything!”
“No, Mother Rong, if Reng Er were to inherit the monarchy one day, then you must not do this, I must make Wan Ying my queen and love her for life, I want to do this, mother, I want to do this!” Yin Reng said with grief and stubbornness.
Rong’er already did not know what was right or wrong, she only knew that Jia Ping was dead, this kind girl who was like her own daughter was dead. When Jia Ping entered the palace, she was determined to take good care of him on behalf of the Empress Renxiao, but she did not, she did not! The pain in her heart was so clear that Jia Ping’s death was etched with deep pain.
