After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 207 Cold Disaster
After finishing their hair-dosing, the two sat down in the hall, and some palace servants brought tea, fruit and snacks.

After the snow, it is always a little colder, Ruan Yuyi tightened her hands holding the sleeve stove, "Sister, what are you going to do next?",

Concubine Rong noticed her small movements, and ordered the waiters to close the window more tightly, and said, "It's very good now, but it's just like before, just living in a muddle."

People in the world are busy with life and death.

She lowered her eyes and laughed again, without any sadness on her face, as if she was truly relieved.

Ruan Yuyi looked out the window.The color of snow penetrated in, and the window paper was reflected white, making the window look like jade.She said slowly, "I will find a sunny day in the future, and my sister and I will go enjoy the flowers."

There are still many winter flowers in the imperial garden in full bloom, but unfortunately, the weather is not beautiful, and few people step out of the house, let alone enjoy the flowers.

Fortunately, Concubine Rong lifted her foot restraint just in time for the New Year, so she felt a little relieved.

Concubine Rong complied naturally.In fact, after staying in the palace for a long time, it seems that people are dead, and it is time to leave.
.
While chatting and chatting, a palace official from outside came to report, saying it was Yan Baolin.She was startled, but agreed.

After Yan Baolin saw the ceremony, the palace people made another round stool for him, and sat on the first place between the two of them, "The concubine said that elder sister Rong would be here with the empress, no, she never went to Chonghua Palace. This is where people will be caught.”

"You can guess." Rong Bin said.

She didn't know the influence of Li Meiren's words on Yan Baolin, she only thought that she was still the little girl who was good at acting like a baby, but in this deep palace, who was completely innocent.

Even someone who has thoughts like Li Meiren, but can't hide things, can't stand up.

Yan Baolin took the hot tea from the palace man, breathed lightly, and the white air rose to her cheeks.She lowered her eyes, unable to distinguish her expression, "Sister Rong still doesn't know that Li Meiren has contracted a mad disease."

"Poor see you."

Someone from Ruan Yuyi sent things to Chonghua Palace from time to time, why did Concubine Rong keep so little news.She has always known that Li Meiren is impulsive, and it is reasonable to end up like this.

She continued calmly, "If you make a mistake, you should be punished, not only Li Meiren, but also this palace. What is there to be pitiful about?"

Yan Baolin was taken aback, he didn't expect her to be compared to himself, and quickly explained, "The concubine didn't mean that."

After all, Concubine Rong is the daughter of a great family, even now, the arrogance and majesty in her bones are beyond the reach of ordinary people. "I didn't accuse Baolin of anything, it's just a fact." She said.

Yan Baolin intentionally persuaded Concubine Rong to stay away from Ruan Yuyi, pursed her lips, and said, "It was Li Meiren the first time, and I don't know who will be next. Aren't sister Rong afraid?"

Ever since Li Meiren clarified the interests behind this with her, she deeply believed it.His majesty now favors only one person and treats the sisters beside him as nothing, so how can he know if one day, his majesty will accuse their mother clan of crimes and pry their mother clan's power away.

Rong Pin heard what she meant, and her face darkened, "Don't talk nonsense, that Li Mei deserves what she deserves."

Seeing that she kept talking to Yan Baolin, Ruan Yuyi felt left out, dissatisfied that Yan Baolin kept dragging her to talk about something, because she picked a fruit and handed it to Concubine Rong.

The cold fruit touched the side of her hand, and she turned to look.

"Sister, eat the fruit."

The little lady's eyes were shining brightly, as if she was pretending to be snowdrops falling from the sky.She didn't hide her taste at all, but it made Rong Bin amused.

Ruan Yuyi's ears turned red from laughing.

She suppressed a smile in the eyes of the little lady, took the fruit, and thanked her earnestly.

Ruan Yuyi bent her lips in satisfaction, turned her head and said to Yan Baolin, "I see that Baolin has been thinking too much recently, which may cause headaches, so I won't keep you. Baolin should go back and rest sooner." .”

This Yan Baolin was suspicious of her, and always pulled her sister to talk, which made her feel depressed.Obviously can't say, isn't it extremely easy to drive someone away in her place?
After all, Yan Baolin was still young, and when he was talked about by both parties, his eyes watered.

With red eyes, she bowed her body to say something, but her eyes were fixed on Concubine Rong.

——She is saving her, why doesn't she understand?
.
The ex-concubine Rong said that the weather is different this year, which is true.Over the years, the days have become colder and colder, and sometimes it has been snowing for a day and a night, covering everything with a layer of white.

There was also more charcoal fire in the Chang'an Palace, and it was very cold in the first month, so the flower viewing mentioned earlier, of course, would not be possible.

Because Ruan Yuyi didn't go out all day, and was being recuperated by Imperial Physician Ning all the time, although she was weak, she never got sick.Yan Baolin, on the other hand, has not recovered for several days after contracting the wind and cold.

Holding the hot tea in her hand, she felt the warmth continuously spread to her palm, and lowered her eyes in thought.After a while, she raised her eyes and said, "Mu Xiang, send someone to deliver something to Yan Baolin."

The other palaces all sent things to them one after another, and their palaces also agreed with the meaning.

"Just the jade unicorn that I got a while ago," she wanted to deal with this only, but Yan Baolin's smile suddenly appeared in her mind, intertwined with Li Meiren's misery.She paused for a moment, then added, "Pack some candied fruit and send it along, presumably her mouth will be bitter after taking the medicine."

Mu Xiang responded, and immediately went to prepare things.

There are enough charcoal fire quilts in the palace, and it is still almost enough to push the days past.It's just that in northern Xinjiang, many crops have been damaged by the cold weather, and the people are complaining. In addition, this autumn is already poor, and there is not enough food left at home——

Therefore, the number of people who died of starvation and those who died of freezing is unknown.

Fearing that they would be blamed, the local officials concealed the report layer by layer. It was not until recently that the situation below was passed on to the new emperor.

Really complied with the phrase "The rich wine and meat stink, and the road has frozen bones".

Ruan Yuyi wrapped herself up layer by layer, and when she arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation with her sleeves in her hands, the soup she brought had already been completely cooled by the wind.But Jiang Huaiyang was furious about this matter, and was questioning relevant officials.

The local officials in northern Xinjiang who came to Beijing to report on their duties fell on the ground, held their breath, and wished they could hide in the ground.

She stood outside the door, seeing the battle, she was a little unsure whether she should go in or not.

It's just that the wind invaded the flesh and bit the bones, and it was really freezing. She hesitated for a while, and then walked in, closing the palace door behind her.She shrank her shoulders, and the hot breath she exhaled condensed into white mist in front of her eyes.

Jiang Huaiyang raised his eyelids to catch a glimpse of her, frowned a little, and reprimanded the official in a deep voice, "Get out."

The official was in the wrong, and when he heard the words, it was as if he had received an amnesty, so he stumbled out and went out without any trace of his usual pomp and prestige.

"What are you holding?" He reached out to her, gesturing for her to come over.

Seeing that he raised his eyebrows just now, she was a little taken aback, and she didn't know what to think, but she stretched out her hand and handed over the food box.

There was something extra in his hand, and he was still a little bit pressed, but he was taken aback for a moment, and then chuckled.

Seeing that he opened the food box and drank the cold soup from the bowl, Ruan Yuyi pursed her lips and said, "Your Majesty, warm it up before using it."

"No problem," he said.
