《Empresses in the Palace》E68
Episode 68
The emperor issued an edict to promote the concubines in the palace: Concubine Duan of Jin was the imperial concubine, and Concubine Jing was the concubine Jing. They were responsible for the affairs of the six palaces in the same way as Concubine Xi.An concubine is the concubine Li, Xin Gui is the concubine Xin, Gui Ning is the concubine Ning, and Concubine Ying Changzai is the concubine Ying.At the same time, deceased concubines such as Concubine Hua, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Qi were granted posthumous titles.During the canonization ceremony, the queen felt very uncomfortable when she saw that the people being conferred in front of her were all members of Zhen Huan's party, but Lingrong, her only one, was exempted from the etiquette because she was pregnant.
Zhen Huan took out the spices that Xiao Yunzi had stolen from Lingrong Palace and found that Lingrong was trying to win favor and seduced the emperor with the warm fragrance.Zhen Huan borrowed someone else's hand to put the warm fragrance into the lily stamens and sent it to Lingrong Palace. Lingrong and the emperor fell in love unconsciously, which led to Lingrong's miscarriage.The queen lamented that she could not overthrow Zhen Huan with Ling Rong's pregnancy, but instead made her position more stable.Lingrong was comforted by the emperor, and his father received a bounty to support him in his old age, but he had become an abandoned son.The imperial concubine revealed in front of the queen that the mausoleum seduced the emperor with the warm fragrance. After the emperor learned about it, he ordered people to search the palace.
Zhen Huan also revealed through Wei Lin the fact that after she was injured by a cat's claw, Ling Rong used musk-containing Shuhen glue on herself, which caused her miscarriage; the imperial concubine also pointed out that when Meizhuang was frightened and died in childbirth, it was Ling Rong who instructed the palace maid to report the news.As a result; musk and other incriminating evidence were found in the Yanxi Palace, and the emperor ordered people to invite Lingrong to confront him. Lingrong revealed that the emperor only regarded himself as a bird-like plaything and had never truly loved him.
The emperor was greatly frustrated and his face was completely disgraced. He ordered that the mausoleum be banned from the Yanxi Palace. He would retain his title and not allow anyone to serve him. Anyone close to the palace maids would be killed with a cane, and he would have to see them live and die with his own eyes.Lingrong heard that the emperor had decreed that his father should be executed, so he met with Zhen Huan in private and revealed his life experience and the old grudges he had had with Zhen Huan and others for many years.Lingrong frantically devoured bitter almonds and died. Before she died, she warned Zhen Huan to kill the queen. Zhen Huan was puzzled.
