The Deposed Imperial Concubine (4)

The eunuch who delivered the order from outside arrived, and this time it was Eunuch Xi'er, the adopted son of Sanfu, the eunuch beside Emperor Yongming. As in the plot, Emperor Yongming did not appear in person, but only scolded the imperial concubine Zhou for not taking care of the royal heir. During the Zhou Dynasty, Liang Mubei died in infancy, saying that her virtue was lacking, so she was demoted from the original imperial concubine to Lin Guifei. However, because the eldest prince died in childhood, she still retained the title of the first of the four concubines. share.

When Shi Qing and Hua Yi heard this decree, they were both extremely angry. Lily had known that such a thing would happen, so she looked very calm. After she finished taking care of Liang Mubei's funeral, Mrs. Zhen was beaten to death in front of her relatives. On that day, many people from Xianfu Palace went to watch and saw what happened to the slave who betrayed her master. They all felt chills in their backs. When her body was dragged away, it was already soaked in blood. The eunuchs in the palace bravely washed it with water several times, but the smell of blood still lingered for a long time.

In the plot, Liang Mubei died, and Zhou Baihe fell seriously ill. After recovering from the illness, it took several days to go out to pay respects to the Empress Dowager Lu, and set out to take revenge on those people in the palace who could not tolerate her son alive.

But this time Lily did not suffer as long as Zhou Baihe. Because the prince was still young, according to the regulations of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he could not have a big funeral if he was under ten years old. Therefore, everything was kept simple during the funeral. She still showed up at the Queen Mother's palace on time the next day. middle.

Such a big event happened yesterday. First, the imperial concubine's only son died in infancy, and then she was demoted by Emperor Yongming. Everyone thought that her vitality was seriously damaged this time, and she couldn't hide in Xianfu Palace for several days. No one would have thought that Concubine Zhou would appear on time in the Queen Mother's Fengming Palace again.

When Lily came to Fengming Hall, she was not the first to arrive. When she arrived at Fengming Hall where Queen Mother Lu was. He happened to bump into Concubine Xian on the small chariot. Even though Lily had just been demoted yesterday, she was still the highest-ranking person in the harem of Emperor Yongming. As a noble and virtuous concubine, the virtuous concubine still had to get off the carriage to pay her respects.

"Sister, I want to express my condolences." Concubine Xian is sixteen this year. She happened to be two years younger than Lily. She entered the harem of Emperor Yongming, who was still the crown prince at the age of fourteen. She was as bright as a rose, at the age when her buds were in full bloom. It could be seen that Concubine Xian probably didn't sleep well last night. Her eyes were a little red, and even the powder on her fair face couldn't hide the haggardness beneath her pretty face. But because she was born well, this haggardness not only didn't make her look any darker, but actually made her look a little more delicate. A pitiful look. She wore a goose-yellow top, a light green floor-length skirt, a snow-green cloak over her shoulders, and a pony top. Wearing a forehead ornament on her forehead makes her even more beautiful and graceful.

Concubine Xian originally thought that Lily would definitely hide in Xianfu Palace today. After all, Emperor Yongming had only been on the throne for just a year, and he had the only legitimate son of the imperial concubine Zhou. No matter who looked at it, Liang Mubei should be the The person whom Emperor Yongming will establish as the crown prince in the future should be someone the Zhou family and Zhou Baihe rely on. Unexpectedly, Liang Mubei died in an accident yesterday. Although many people in the harem were secretly happy about this incident, they all knew in their hearts that Lily Zhou's heart and liver had been gouged out, and they would probably be in pain for a while.

If the matter had nothing to do with her, maybe Concubine Xian would still watch the excitement. She was still young, and although she had intrigues, she was not yet old enough to be ruthless and ruthless, so she still had a smile on her face. She couldn't do it yet. What an outrageous thing. But she didn't have a good impression of Zhou Lily at first. But yesterday, when Liang Mubei died, someone discovered her handkerchief not far away, and she was involved in the whirlpool.

Concubine Xian also knew the character of the Zhou family. She will retaliate for her anger, and she looks extremely gorgeous on the surface. She is gentle and dignified, but in fact she is also cruel and intolerant. This time she was involved in the death of her son. According to Zhou Lily's character, I am afraid that after losing her beloved son, she will definitely hate herself to the core. She knew at that time When the news came, she was shocked and angry, but when her veil was lost, Concubine Xian didn't notice at all. When she returned to the palace yesterday, she had ordered a thorough investigation, and finally found out the truth about the veil. The veil might not be hers. Both An Ru and An Xue, who were in charge of her veil, said that the veil had been washed out a few days ago. In order to prevent someone from using it for attack, they destroyed it. Who would have expected that it would appear now? An exact replica of the veil.

After many searches, Concubine Xian only found out that the person who ruined the handkerchief she washed was a palace servant named Gui'er from the Huanyi Bureau. On that day, Concubine Xian had this handkerchief tucked into the clothes she sent to the Bureau of Huanyi. He was clumsy and didn't pay attention to the silk handkerchief. The silk handkerchief was so delicate that it broke when rubbed and was no longer usable when it was returned. When the palace attendant named Gui'er was checked again, the report said that because Gui'er knew that she had made a mistake, she hanged herself that night.

There were quite a lot of eunuchs and maids in the palace. Sometimes palace eunuchs who made mistakes would be beaten and punished in the Huanyi Bureau. It was not uncommon for a palace eunuch to die. The body of Gui'er was dragged away when something happened. Got out.

By the time Concubine Xian thought of investigating this matter, Guier's body would probably have been dragged away by wild dogs.

When she got here, Concubine Xian didn't know that she had fallen into someone else's trap. She had said it so cleverly, her veil was destroyed as soon as she said it, and she was dealt with so badly that no trace of scum was left. It was such a coincidence that Liang Mubei was next to her. The unexpected appearance of 'her' handkerchief, if Concubine Xian had compared herself to Lily Lin, I'm afraid she wouldn't believe that there were so many coincidences.

But she couldn't blame her palace servants for doing something wrong. Even if she had known about it that day, she probably wouldn't have thought about it that much. She might have asked someone to get rid of the veil. But now there is no proof. If he said that his veil had been destroyed long ago, who would believe it? The most important thing is that she found out yesterday that the emperor would pass by the imperial garden. When she came out from the Queen Mother's place to greet the emperor, she thought that she had not seen the emperor for several days. There were many people in Emperor Yongming's harem. Although he was stingy and would not give in easily. He is willing to grant titles to women, but there are many beauties in the palace. Although the concubine Xian is good-looking, she cannot see the emperor a few times in a month. She has been in Lianghe's palace for two years. Although she is only sixteen, she can In Liang He's eyes, he was already considered an 'old man'. If he wanted to be favored by the emperor, he had to find another way.

She walked around the imperial garden twice, but the emperor didn't see her, but she didn't know what was wrong. She had a severe abdominal pain. After looking for a place to deal with it, she was worried that something was wrong with her and that she would be ill. She was serving the emperor, so she ordered the eldest maid An Ru beside her to go to the Imperial Medical Office to get some medicine. When she returned to the Jianjia Palace where she was, it was already more than an hour later.

Normally, that would be fine, but at this critical moment, 'her' veil fell not far away from Liang Mubei's death, and she had been out for a long time without returning to her palace. Now she was really confused. It fell into my crotch, and I couldn’t even explain what was happening all over my body.

Concubine Xian didn't sleep all night last night. She knew that she had fallen into a trap. She went back and smashed a lot of things, but she still couldn't calm down. She originally wanted to come here early this morning to explain and plead with the Queen Mother. Zhou Baihe has a dignified position and vicious methods. She offended such a person and got into such a big incident. Concubine Xian used to have a bad temper and was on guard against the rest of the harem. Now she has done this. Behind the scenes, Concubine Reed and those little bitches were probably waiting to see her laugh. Who would help her? She thought about it and realized that she needed someone to rely on in the palace, so she had someone pack her up early in the morning and rushed to Fengming Palace. Unexpectedly, she met Lily just as she arrived at the gate of Fengming Palace.

Thinking of this, Concubine Xian felt helpless. She did not attack Liang Mubei. She had no heirs, so there was no need to attack Liang Mubei now. But now she didn't know if Lily could listen to her words. Concubine Xian finished asking An, then stood aside and stared at Lily from the corner of his eye.

Because Liang Mubei had just died, Lily was not dressed as flamboyantly as the previous owner. Where Concubine Xian was standing, she could see Lily's feet stepping on the small chariot. After she finished speaking, she heard Lily asking someone to stop the chariot. Her voice was still as gentle and calm as usual, and there was no hint of happiness or anger. But the more this happened, the more nervous Concubine Xian became. She saw Bu The chariot stopped, and a well-maintained jade hand was holding on the edge of the chariot. The nails were still stained with the juice of the impatiens flower that had not completely faded away, and the color was extremely delicious. The nails were about an inch long, and the women in the palace were the most beautiful. Most people who love beauty keep their nails long, even Xianfei herself has them, and wears them with tortoiseshell armor to make her look even more gorgeous.

But when Concubine Xian saw that hand, she felt inexplicably scared, as if her neck was being pinched tightly, and even her breathing was not smooth.

"Thank you for your kindness, sister." Lily looked at Concubine Xian's pale face for a moment, stretched out her hand to press her temples: "My sister came early, she has already arrived at Fengming Hall."

Hearing this, Concubine Xian didn't know whether it was because she had something on her mind, so she was overthinking it, or because there was indeed something in Lily's words. She subconsciously raised her head to look at Lily, only to see a smile on her lips and a smile on her face. Bo Fen's eyes were very bright. Just one glance from her made Concubine Xian lower her head instinctively. For some reason, when she saw those eyes, she felt a little panicked for no reason.

"What happened yesterday..." Concubine Xian couldn't hold her breath, and she opened her mouth to mention what happened yesterday. She originally came to the Queen Mother's Palace for this matter today, but now she met Lily, knowing that she was very likely to She didn't believe it, but Concubine Xian still couldn't stand the injustice. Just when she was about to open her mouth to explain, Lily stretched out her hand to hold her back. I don't know if it was because of the cold weather. Concubine Xian was frozen to death as soon as she was held by Lily's hand. She shivered for two or three times and wanted to pull out, but she didn't know whether it was because her strength was too weak or Lily's grip was too strong, so she couldn't pull out at all. (To be continued ~^~)
