Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Death of the High Beauty

February 12 is the birthday of the concubine, although His Majesty and the concubine know that it is fake, but it is celebrated on this day every year, and it is also the day when others give gifts.

Qi Zongwen woke up with Qin Yunyi in his arms and kissed her forehead, "You really don't want people to hold a banquet today?"

"Originally, I wanted to borrow your birthday to have a good time. ”

"The queen raises a baby, and I am too lazy to worry about it, and the rest of the people around me are not good to handle it for me. Qin Yunyi closed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty will have dinner with me today." ”

"It's not every day that I'm with you. Qi Zongwen smiled. "Little sticky elf. ”

"Your Majesty has lunch in Ronghua Palace, after taking a lunch break, Your Majesty can't go to the Qinzheng Palace, so let's rest for half a day today. We can go to Shanglin Yuan and go around, we haven't played polo since we entered the palace, don't you want to?" Qin Yunyi said, "You should also eat with me at night, don't go to other people's palaces, and don't ask others to go to Tianqing Palace." ”

"Okay, it's up to you. Qi Zongwen said with a smile, he rubbed Qin Yunyi's back, "I don't say it on weekdays, but I actually have a lot of taste in my heart." ”

Qin Yunyi snorted lightly, "Every day when His Majesty doesn't come, I think, other people have more days like this, and then I balance." ”

"I will accompany you more in the future. Qi Zongwen said, "You don't have to compare with them, you are different from them." ”

What's the difference, aren't they all one of the many women in the backyard of this deep palace. Qin Yunyi's heart flickered, and then he got closer to His Majesty, "You can't deceive the birthday star on your birthday, what Your Majesty says, at least this year will count." ”

"When did I talk to you count?" Qi Zongwen chuckled, and the two of them kept warm for a while, until the eunuch said outside that the time of the previous dynasty was coming, and they reluctantly parted.

His Majesty went to the court, and Qin Yunyi also got up, "Niangniang, Huang Jieyu took the nobles and beauties to Ronghua Palace to congratulate Niangniang on her birthday." ”

"Call in. Qin Yunyi said, "People are kind enough to congratulate me on my birthday, and it's too much to not even see me." ”

But he just called in and kowtowed, and then gave someone a return gift, and sent it back. "Your Majesty told the Inner Diet Division yesterday that all the concubines in the palace today will add three major dishes, and the palace maids and eunuchs will add a meat dish, which can be regarded as celebrating the birthday of the mother. ”

"They came here today, and they got an extra gift in return, which was really earned. ”

"They have a low position and few shares, and it is not easy to have the opportunity to earn a little. Qin Yunyi said, "I don't lack this thing." ”

"The birthday gift prepared by His Majesty for the mother, the original treasury could not be placed, and another room was opened. ”

"Don't always press the fabrics and spices that are not easy to store in the storeroom, take them out and prepare them for rewards, or you can make more clothes. Qin Yunyi said, "It's broken in the warehouse." ”

"Mama Li manages it very well, and she tidies up the warehouse every month, so she will not spoil things. Miao Ji said that she went to Ronghua Palace to be trained under Mama Li, so she naturally had to maintain more.

"Everyone in the Ronghua Palace should be rewarded today. Qin Yunyi said, "Be generous to outsiders, and be more generous to your own people." ”

"It's a great blessing to be able to serve the mother, and the slave must have done a lot of good things in her previous life. Miao Yi said.

Gao Meiren has been a little bad since the day before yesterday, the water and rice do not enter, Huan'er is anxious to ask for a doctor, but no one is willing to come, Yao Concubine Niangniang's imperial doctor is not stationed in Yulu Palace after Yao Concubine is stable, Yao Concubine Niangniang's palace maid refused to pass on for her, saying that she could not disturb Niangniang's recuperation.

Huan'er sat on the edge of Gao Meiren's bed and cried.

Gao Meiren smiled and comforted her instead, "Don't cry, it's my time." ”

"Beauty. ”

"Dress up for me. Gao Meiren said, according to what she said, put the jewelry and clothes that the queen gave her on her body, and she didn't look like a beautiful woman, "Dress up, you stay away from me." ”

"Take what you give you yourself, don't let others know. ”

"Beauty. Huan'er cried out.

"I'm not going to die now. Gao Meiren's eyes were shining, she looked at the roof, "There is another day is the birthday of the concubine, you say, if I die on that day, will Your Majesty remember me a little more." ”

When Gao Meiren died, Qi Zongwen was playing polo with Qin Yunyi in Shanglin Yuan, because the early spring was precipitous, and he still wore a lot of clothes, and he didn't play the whole game, he played around half the court, Qin Yunyi waved a horse stick, feeling that he was going to lose, so he played tricks, "Today is my birthday, Your Majesty won't let me." ”

"Who said that you are really good at the polo field, and who wants to make you turn your face. Qi Zongwen smiled and said, "Now you want to release the water again?"

"Special treatment at special times. Qin Yunyi took advantage of him to speak, drove his mount by himself, and went into the hole, "Score." ”

Qi Zongwen looked at her smug appearance and smiled. "Now the score is tied, and the winner depends on the next goal. ”

Han Xing hung his hands on the side and smiled at them to play, and the little eunuch came over and said that Gao Meiren was dead, and he couldn't help frowning, "It's really unlucky." ”

"Deal with what was done in the palace before, don't tell Your Majesty and Niangniang today, so as not to sweep away Your Majesty's Niangniang's happiness. ”

There is no difference between the death of a beauty in the palace and the death of an ant, Huan'er cried and sent the high beauty to Jing'an Palace, and the people she met said that it was not the time to die, and today is the birthday of the concubine, that is, some people want to say goodbye, and they are afraid of provoking the concubine, so they can only go coldly.

The person who collected the funeral looked at Gao Meiren's neat and tidy tidy, "What about bringing so many good things to the burial?"

"These are all gifts from the queen mother to my beauties. Huan'er said, "The beauty said that she would bring these things to the burial, and whoever dares to stretch out his hand should wait for the beauty to come back to him." ”

"Look at what you said, we are all rules people. The eunuch said, "This beauty will be out of the palace tomorrow for a day of rest, and she will be transported out of the palace tomorrow for burial. ”

But later, His Majesty and the concubine still knew, because the queen came to Ronghua Palace in person, "The concubine should not have come to disturb the concubine's interest on today's happy day, but Gao Meiren is also a poor person." ”

"What's wrong with Gao Meiren?" Qin Yunyi asked.

"Gao Meiren was gone at the beginning of Shen. The queen said regretfully. "The palace people don't dare to go back and forth to Your Majesty, and the palace can only be affected, after all, this is the first sister who died in His Majesty's harem. ”

"Everyone in the palace knows that today is the birthday of the concubine, I and the concubine congratulate the birthday, these things are not reported, you are a queen, you are not as sensible as the palace people. Qi Zongwen said suddenly.

"What's the matter with a beauty, what should I do after the previous rules?" Qi Zongwen continued to be angry, "Or are you a queen, you can't even follow the old routine when a beauty dies, and you have to come out of it to ask me what I mean?"

"Then what else do I want you to do as a queen?"

The queen was said to be embarrassed, so she could only kneel down and plead guilty.

"Your Majesty. Qin Yunyi pressed on Qi Zongwen's hand and told him not to be angry.

"Go down. Qi Zongwen said, and finally couldn't help but say, "You are the queen, be broad-minded, don't look at your careful thoughts, I don't understand, I don't say it, it's to leave you the face of the queen, but you also have to know, don't do such inappropriate things again." ”

"The concubine is trained. The queen left with a disgraced face, and when she went out, she looked back at Ronghua Palace, and there was jealousy in her eyes that could not be hidden.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. Qin Yunyi said softly.

"She just did it on purpose. Qi Zongwen aired. "Deliberately made you unhappy, and her good mood today was ruined by her. ”

"Miaoqing, you can go to the Jing'an Hall for me to put a pillar of incense on the high beauty. Qin Yunyi said, she looked at Qi Zongwen's angry appearance and said, "Don't be angry, today is not my real birthday anyway." ”

"Thinking about it this way, Your Majesty is really far-sighted. ”

"You. Qi Zongwen said helplessly, "Don't take anything to heart." ”

"I have Your Majesty in mind. Qin Yunyi said, "Who called Your Majesty so important, he took up such a large part of his heart, and he couldn't let go of the others." ”

Qi Zongwen hugged her and shook it, "You can coax me, you are very good." ”

The Zhen Investigation Division wanted to investigate the premature birth of Concubine Yao, naturally starting from the people in Yulu Palace, one by one, whether there was an abnormal situation recently, and before it was found on Gao Meiren's head, Gao Meiren died, which was really a little unprepared.

"Although Gao Meiren lives in Yulu Palace, it is rumored that she gets along with Yao Concubine very well, there is no dirt, and Gao Mei has no need to harm Yao Concubine. Lu Yingcheng thought that the focus was still on the people around Concubine Yao.

Wei Hu disagreed, "The people around Concubine Yao won't move for a while, and Gao Meiren, if you don't check it, when you get to the emperor's tomb, it won't be easy to check." ”

"Check, check, check. ”

This check, there is a strange place, the clothes and jewelry of this body are not worn by beauties, but it is said that the queen is rewarded, and the beauties wear it every day when they are there, so they are specially asked to be buried after death.

In the white mourning hall, Wei Hu touched the fabric on the high beauty in the coffin and fell into deep thought, "Hey, you really don't have anything taboo." Lu Yingcheng said, "What is there to touch the dead." ”

"Where is the maid of the High Beauty?" asked Weihu.

"She was still crying here, and if it wasn't for us to come in, I knocked her unconscious and threw her next door. Lu Yingcheng said.

"You. Wei Hu said, "Let's be serious, you have the ability to make it like we're doing bad things." ”

"Go wake her up. ”

"Didn't Your Majesty say that you want us to investigate secretly? This is going to wake up, what if it is leaked?" Lu Yingcheng asked.

"Don't you know that we're here to find out about the death of the High Beauty?"

"Do you still want to check this death? Isn't it just that I was kicked by Your Majesty, and I don't want to live anymore. ”

"Go wake up the maid and bring it here. "Don't make me say it a third time. ”
