The 60th dragon scale (IX)

Even if she lost her mother at birth, the newborn princess is still happier than most people in the world. Still a meat ball, she doesn't know what sadness is. She can eat enough milk every day. If someone holds her, she can spit milk bubbles happily.

But the little princess can't do without her mother's upbringing. The officials want to find a childless concubine in the harem and write the little princess down to her name. Originally, there was no doubt that the best candidate was concubine Lu, but Linglong didn't want her to be so happy - yes, everyone knows that if the newborn Prince and Princess lose their mother concubine, it is concubine Lu who has the best chance to feed them. Everyone knows this truth. Can concubine Lu not understand it?

In the past, she refused to do so because she didn't want to raise children born to others and officials. At that time, she still had pet and hope. She felt that she might be pregnant with dragon seed one day. But after Linglong entered the palace, the officials no longer came to the back palace. They just sat and said a few words and left soon. In the long run, how will she have children? And the exquisite words of that day, although Lu Guifei looked unconvinced, she also listened to most of them.

With her background, the government won't let her have children.

But she didn't, and neither did the little queen!

So she had a strange sense of balance... And another idea. Since you can't have children yourself, it's the same with taking other people's children. The best candidate is Mei bin. Now she is the only one pregnant in the harem. Concubine Lu secretly saw it with an experienced mother and said that Mei bin must be a prince. She was very happy and decided to kill Mei bin without thinking about it.

In the past, Mei bin didn't fight, grab or stand out, and concubine Lu didn't pay attention to her, but now that everyone has no pet, Mei bin can still be pregnant, which makes people jealous.

She's not stupid. It's very stupid for someone in Mei Bin's palace to choose to do it during childbirth. It's easy to find out. Princess Lu asked her people to put something in the tocolysis medicine Mei Bin took every day. It's a good tonic and will keep the fetus very strong and healthy - at the same time, the price is the weakness of the mother, which will naturally lead to dystocia during childbirth, It's not a word to protect the big and the small at that time?

She wants Mei bin to die!

As long as she thought about how Mei bin pretended to be low and small to please herself in the past ten years, but how she laughed at herself behind her back, Lu Guifei felt that it was cheap for her just to kill her!

Her eyes, which were placed in the Mei pin palace, often reported to her. After the pregnancy, Mei bin was very arrogant and arrogant. She laughed at many people, and the most serious one was proud as Lucifer.

What Princess Lu did not expect was that the plum concubine died and was directly buried in the imperial concubine's mausoleum. What did the little queen say? The Ping'an pulse asked by the plum concubine during her pregnancy was very good. How could she have a sudden dystocia? It is suspected that the cause of death is different. Unexpectedly, she asked Ding LAN, who has become a waiter of the Ministry of justice, to have a post-mortem!

After hearing the news, concubine Lu was furious and confronted Linglong in front of the officials: "Mei bin is dead, but the queen wants outsiders to perform an autopsy. This is to make her die in peace! The queen is so cruel! You're going to let her die without a whole body! "

Ding LAN could not see that the little queen was hated, so she threw a fist at concubine Lu: "don't worry, concubine Lu. I'm not only good at dissecting the body, but also good at gathering capacity. At that time, Bao Zhun will sew the empress Mei tightly, which is more beautiful than she was alive."

In modern times, she was only responsible for stitching, but in ancient times, she could only carry out table body inspection, because most people were full of resistance to anatomy, so Ding LAN specially found a buried teacher Fu Xueyi. Now she feels that as long as she learns to play suona, even if she is demoted and returns to civilians, she will be a funeral dragon alone.

Lu Guifei was disgusted by her words. She just felt that Ding LAN didn't look like a woman at all. I'm afraid she wasn't a monster with a woman's skin“ bold! Mei bin is the concubine of the official family. How can you move her body! This is disrespectful! This is against the rules! "

"The rules of death can be changed, not to mention the dead. There were no female officials in the past. Now there are not only women, but also many people. What's the matter with concubine Lu." Linglong said calmly, "when did you have such a good relationship with Mei bin? Look at your anxious appearance. I don't know. I thought Mei bin was your own sister. "

Concubine Lu stifled for a moment and said forcefully: "although there were many disagreements between the palace and the plum concubine, people died like lights out. When a concubine died, the queen would open her belly. If the rest of us died in the future, would the queen do the same?"

All the concubines on the side changed their faces.

Ding Lan thought that the imperial concubine was quite rhythmic, and immediately fanned the emotions of other empresses.

"If other people, every month, please be safe, and their pulse is good, but they die suddenly, I will not give up. Who wants to die without knowing? It's very dangerous. Mei bin was born a princess. If she is a prince... Imperial concubine, do you want to write it down in your name? "

Linglong's tone is peaceful, but the more peaceful it is, the more ironic it is. Ding LAN clapped for the empress at the bottom of her heart. Although she is still a minor girl in modern times, in ancient times, people's heart can have hundreds of 80 orifices more than Ding LAN!

Lu Guifei wanted to say more, but the officials were impatient: "if you don't want to know, go back to your palace. Don't fool around here."

Hearing the speech, concubine Lu's face changed greatly. She didn't dare to make the officials angry. She had to step back in a hurry, clench her hands into fists, stare at Ding Lan's every move.

It is said that Lord Ding is now a celebrity of the third division of justice, because no matter how big a case she has, she can solve it. I don't know how many people have been cleared, how many people's grievances have been washed, and how many villains have been punished. She is famous all over the world. She is also the master in the script. Some people have arranged her plays, and storytellers love to talk about her, Everyone said that Lord Ding was sent by an immortal to assist the officials and had a high reputation among the people.

If you have a grievance, find Lord Ding. Even if you die, she will give you justice.

A woman who can make the dead talk... Can she really bring Mei bin back from the dead?!

Concubine Lu was very flustered.

Mei bin was a imperial concubine before she died. Naturally, she could not be seen naked. Linglong ordered the imperial palace of introspection and father-in-law Mao to go in for supervision, while others sat behind the screen and waited.

Ding LAN is not at all tied up because the person in front of her was once a imperial concubine. She has two young girls around her, one responsible for recording and the other responsible for delivering tools. They are all her disciples. Since she came to ancient times, there is absolutely no reason to waste. Ding LAN hopes to inherit it and let more people learn. These two girls are the students she personally selected. They can bear hardships and are honest. She used to have the title of a nominal professor in her alma mater and brought several groups of novice forensic doctors, so it's easy to teach students.

Girls... Vomit and get used to it.

But Shanggong people are different! They are also female officials in the palace, but they can't compare with Ding LAN who is really in power. After checking the body of Mei bin, Ding LAN opened a Y-shaped mouth on the chest of the body with an extremely strange and sharp knife. All of them were pale, as delicate as father Mao, and had already vomited with a spittoon.

He said... Before the autopsy, what did Lord Ding want him to prepare some spittoons for them to spit

The vomit inside was so bad that it was smelled outside. The officials frowned slightly, and the exquisite complexion remained unchanged. Concubine Lu's face was more ugly than father Mao inside.

It's impossible to be found. It's just some medicine. After so long, people have long died. Does Ding LAN have great ability to see what a person ate before he died?

After about an hour, Ding LAN came out from inside.

She took off her mask and gloves and reported: "the official family, the empress, after the autopsy, the minister can confirm that the concubine's dystocia is man-made!"

Everyone was surprised!

Ding Lan was neither humble nor arrogant: "after dissecting the body of the deceased, I found that the heart and lungs of the deceased were swollen to more than twice that of ordinary people, which also led to the inability of the deceased to breathe hard during production, resulting in the suffocation of the fetus in the abdomen. The culprit should be the strange flower blindly called tianxingcao. I have read this kind of flower in the files of the Ministry of punishment. It is very rare and often used to protect the fetus. However, the pulse of the deceased was stable before his death, and the fetus in his abdomen was also very healthy. There is no need for Tianxing grass at all. When the fetus is healthy, taking tianyucao will only make the fetus grow bigger and become a threat to production. The most noteworthy thing is that if you take too much tianyucao, it will be the culprit of heart and lung swelling. "

The official's eyebrows and eyes are heavy, which is the appearance of thunder and anger.

Concubine Lu's heart is cold!

"I ask the official empress Xu Chen to find out the case and give justice to the dead!"

"Accurate."

A word that came out of the official's mouth is a thousand kilograms for concubine Lu. She really doesn't understand how Ding LAN did it! The fishy grass was very rare that day. She tried it. Even the medical women of Shangyi Bureau and the Royal doctors of Royal Hospital couldn't recognize it! How did Ding LAN know!

The case is handed over to Ding LAN, and Mei bin can be buried in the imperial concubine's mausoleum. Unfortunately, the newly born little princess is fat, but she is congenitally deficient because of the damage of her mother. Looking at her health, she is actually deficient and has constant minor diseases.

Ding LAN is very efficient. Concubine Lu is not a genius criminal. She was soon found out. Not only that, Ding LAN Shunteng touched melons, but also found evidence that she had framed other concubines in the past and caused several pregnant concubines to miscarry!

Seeing Ding Lan's hair cold, she deeply felt that the women in the harem were too terrible. Even if it was a little thing, they could bear a grudge for a long time. You robbed her a hairpin three years ago, and she could press you to death ten years later.

It's better for the criminal department or the dead.

One by one, she was placed in front of her. She couldn't plead guilty, but she didn't think she was wrong. She held her head high like a proud Swan: "I don't have children. Why can they have children! I don't regret it! I don't think I'm wrong! "

The officials didn't get angry when they saw her so stubborn, but her eyes were especially cold, so cold that even Ding LAN felt creepy.

She has seen the official family many times. Except when she went to the court, she always saw the official family in private. She only felt that this was a good tempered and reasonable emperor. Now she saw him not angry but powerful. Even she, a highly educated person from the modern society of equality, had goose bumps. She really felt what the son of heaven was angry.

"You are right. Is that my fault?"

Lu Guifei had tears in her eyes: "the officials look at me and love me, but they also love other women! Why should I give it to them? Why can't the government be mine alone? If I can't get it, why -- "

She pointed to Linglong, "why does she want everything when she enters the palace?! Why can't the officials treat me like she did? If the official family had me in mind and could give me a child, how could I do these things? With so much blood on my hands... Am I getting better every day? "

My god?

Ding LAN, what is this rogue logic? There are many concubines in the palace who are childless and spoiled. Don't people still keep their own pace? How could concubine Lu make such a high sounding statement about harming people? It's not the official who forced her to enter the palace. It's understandable that she wants love, but you hurt people because you want the official's love. It's the official's fault that the official doesn't give it. This logic is more logical than that in modern society. She doesn't look up to me, just admires vanity, because I don't have money and don't make sense!

The officials were so angry that they were speechless by the words of Princess Lu.

It's meaningless for you to reason with an unreasonable person.

He waved, motioned to drag Princess Lu down, stripped her of her beautiful clothes, took off her eight tail Phoenix hairpin, and demoted to the cold palace as a common man. After a long night, she will continue to complain in the cold palace.

"The officials are ruthless... The officials are ruthless!"

When Lu Guifei was dragged away, she cried and laughed, mumbling and repeating these four words.

The official's face was expressionless, and there was a faint tired color between his eyebrows. Linglong made everyone retire. Ding LAN retired with success, but it's hard to avoid the official's bad mood and anger. It's better to slip away.

The soft fingers cover the temples on both sides and press them gently. The officials close their eyes, hold a small hand and send it to their lips to kiss. " Am I really a heartless man? "

Linglongqi said, "are the officials self doubting? The official family is ruthless to others, just have affection for me. "

Then she hugged him from behind, put her little head on his shoulder and bit his ear: "is it difficult for the officials to be kind to everyone? That's not true. I want other women in the harem to be furnishings. You can only like me. "

He was overbearing, rude and unreasonable, but the official's heart was appropriate. He held Linglong in his arms and sighed gently: "naturally, I only like you and won't like others anymore."

Linglong smiled with satisfaction.

The official's bad mood lasted until his own birthday.

He was born on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, but since he married Linglong, the officials not only didn't expect his birthday, but some hated it. Now he doesn't think about it for years. The new year means that he is one step closer to his 40th birthday.

So the courtiers are honest and don't dare to breathe these days for fear of being taken out by the officials with low pressure. After all, who doesn't want to have a good year?

Today, on the official's birthday, there was nothing in the palace. On the one hand, he felt happy, as if he deceived himself so that he would not grow old. On the other hand, he was disappointed. He felt that he remembered the exquisite days clearly, but she was not full of his birthday. So he dealt with government affairs in the imperial study that day until dark. He didn't want to go to Jinfeng Palace at night. He took father Mao to Jinfeng palace to report that the officials were too tired tonight, so he took a rest in Qianlong palace.

Father Mao answered and went quickly.

The officials thought that the old man had been with him for decades. Should he know how to sell miserably and coax the queen over? He will stay in the imperial study for a while. When he returns to the Qianlong palace, the little queen must have been waiting for him. Hei hei.

As a result, after half a column of incense, father-in-law Mao came back with his eyebrows and eyes drooping. He trembled and reported that his mother had fallen asleep

The officials were silent.

Father Mao is hairy all over.

A moment later, the officials threw away their brush: "then I'll sleep in the imperial study tonight."

Father Mao: "... It's impossible! Where is the Royal study comfortable for sleeping in the palace? The officials haven't had dinner yet. Let's go back to the Qianlong Palace first! "

Under the persuasion of father-in-law Mao, the officials got up and were bored. The Qianlong palace was no different from the past. He had not come back to live for a long time. He had basically taken root in the Jinfeng palace. He looked wan. He didn't notice that only he went in, but father-in-law Mao didn't keep up.

As a result, he spread his arms and waited for father Mao to change clothes. After waiting for a long time, no one was there. The officials opened their eyes and wanted to get angry, but suddenly there was a melodious flute sound in their ears!

No one opened the bead curtain in the inner hall. It was dark inside, but suddenly light came on. In the center of the aperture, there was a girl wearing a golden dance dress with her back to him.

The golden dance clothes had very little cloth, and the exposed skin was full of fragrant snow and jade. With the crisp bell sound, the girl turned her head and bited a pricked flower in her mouth. Her eyes were flowing, charming and full of amorous feelings.

The officials stood where they were, and the whole person was stupid.

She was a great beauty. There was no second one in the world. She was gorgeous with heavy makeup and light makeup on weekdays, but she was never like tonight. She was enchanting and smart in dance clothes, like a spirit sucking goblin, and her eyes and eyebrows were full of hook feelings.

With the music, she gradually danced and approached, and the flowers biting in her mouth were also sent to the arms of the officials. She only listened to her singing songs like the sounds of nature. The officials were completely obsessed and forgot what they did later. Only the sentence she sang, "may you grow old together and never lose my tenderness", lingered around her ears for a long time.

He felt that he had fallen in love with his birthday ever since.

I wish every day was my birthday.

When the clouds and rain stopped, the official's mind gradually became clear. What else don't you understand now? She united with everyone to coax him, let him lose to the extreme, then give him a sweet taste, slap him with a sweet date or something, which has always been a common means of the officials. Now she has been used on herself. He is not angry at all and feels very sweet.

But

"The word is not well written." Officials said“ What beauty is so mean, the childe is amorous, obscene, who wrote it? I will punish him. "

Linglong climbed on him and kept laughing: "that's no good. Ding LAN taught me. I won't agree if you want to cure her."

The official muttered, "I don't know who is your man."

"That is, Ding LAN is a woman." Linglong sighed, "I wish I had met before I got married!"

Officials:

But she was obviously joking, because she soon rubbed him again: "officer, are you still hungry?"

Remembering the sentence she asked before, whether to use her first or eat first, the handsome face of the official turned red again! He refused to let Linglong see it, so he became angry: "what to eat! Sleep! "

Then he hugged her tightly and forbade her to look up at herself again. However, a heart still seemed to be in boiling water, which was excited and warm because of the explosion of love.

He will never forget tonight in his life.

At this moment, if Linglong mentioned to him that he wanted the throne, the officials felt that they would agree. He admitted that he was completely fascinated by her and lost his mind and judgment. Even if his reason was still there, he could not resist the surging tide of emotion.

He even felt that the country that no one had ever crossed was so insignificant compared with her.

What does she want?

Now, like a young man in love, he urgently wants to show in front of his beloved and find what she likes. Even if he cuts through thorns and hardships, he will hold it in front of her and please her.

But Linglong wants nothing but sleep at this moment.

As for the precious Dance Dress sewn by the fashion Bureau under the guidance of Ding LAN, it has been sacrificed bravely and can no longer be used for the second time.

The courtiers noticed that the low pressure on the officials had passed, and they could finally speak freely, impeach each other, and even yell and fight in the Jinluan hall. In the past, the officials would stop it, but this time, the officials actually looked at it with a smile, and they didn't even punish them for losing their instrument!

What's the matter with the officials?

Only Ding LAN knew that the officials were unable to find the north because of the pillow wind.

She used to think that the women who brought disaster to the country and the people in the history books were nonsense. If a country was going to perish and a monarch was not wise, what was the reason to blame women? But after meeting Linglong, Ding Lan thought that maybe... If Linglong were to be replaced, it wouldn't be impossible?

Her lethality is really stronger than thousands of troops. Not to mention the official family, even if she, a woman who has dissected more dead than alive, sometimes her heart beats.

Who doesn't like the beautiful and charming little girl!

The official family celebrated their birthday and ushered in the new year. On the 29th of the lunar new year, the palace hosted a banquet for all the officials. On New Year's Eve, the officials were reunited with the whole family, and the official family slipped out of the palace with Linglong in disguise. No one knew about it except the close palace people.

Ding Lan was single and had no relatives. Linglong sent someone to deliver the news to her. Lvqiao also ran out of home. The four people had no distinction between monarchs and ministers tonight and strolled together in the prosperous capital.
