136: Empress Dowager Qin died

Three days later, the Empress Dowager Qin sent someone to the regent palace to deliver a letter, which was sent to Lou Yueqing, Lou Yueqing read the content of the letter, her face was flat, and the Empress Dowager Qin said that she would accompany the emperor to spend the New Year's Festival.

Lou Yueqing did not refuse, and asked the emperor to send the emperor to Huan Palace.

The New Year is still a month away.

Years ago, Rong Zhi was very busy, this year's winter is colder than last year, it is said that there are snow disasters in many places in Beili, and there are also several snowstorms in the north of Chu near Beili, and many people are frozen to death.

Chu Jing also snowed every day, and when it was about to be her birthday, she moved to the plum garden in the west of the city to live, which was given to her by Rong Zhi on her birthday last year, because she liked plum blossoms very much, and the plum blossoms in the plum garden were blooming, so she was okay in the city, so she took Ling'er to live in the plum garden, and Rong Zhi also deliberately accompanied her on her birthday in the past few days, Lou Yueqing was very happy.

In the past, she was rarely happy on this day, this day was her birthday, and it was also Jing Fei's death day, she couldn't be happy, but this year, she was very happy.

After her birthday, the New Year is approaching, she and Rong Zhi returned to the Regent's Mansion, this year she spent with Rong Zhi in the Regent's Mansion, however, on the first day of the new year, she went to Lou's house, lived in Ningguo's Mansion for several days, and accompanied Mrs. Ningguo to relieve boredom and talk every day, and the days passed quickly.

Less than half a month after the year, news came from the palace that the Empress Dowager Qin wanted to pray for the emperor and the Chu State, and planned to go to Putuo Nunnery to live and fast and pray for blessings.

When Lou Yueqing heard the news, she didn't say anything and let the Empress Dowager Qin go.

During this period of time, she has been letting people monitor the movements in the palace, monitoring the Empress Dowager Qin's every move, the Empress Dowager Qin has been accompanying the emperor every day for more than a month, taking care of the emperor in everything, and often sending people to invite the Qin family into the palace.

Sure enough, two days later, a shocking news came from Putuo'an, the Queen Mother died, and Chu Jing was in an uproar again.

In the past two days, the Empress Dowager Qin has been chanting and praying in front of the Buddha, very sincere, there is nothing unusual, but just last night, she went to bed as usual, and the vigil was her maid Zhao'er, which was very common and there was nothing wrong, however, in the middle of the night, the meditation room where she lived burst into flames, and when the people outside the house noticed it, the room had been lit with raging flames, and the fire spread extremely quickly, and it was too late to save.

When the fire was extinguished, there were two corpses in the ruins, one was the Empress Dowager Qin, and the other was Zhao'er, both of whose bodies were almost intact, and the clothes on their bodies were also vaguely recognizable.

It happened so suddenly that everyone who heard the news was caught off guard, and no one thought that Empress Dowager Qin would die so suddenly.

Empress Dowager Qin's death was expected by Lou Yueqing, but this matter was unexpected by her.

The Empress Dowager Qin is still the justifiable Empress Dowager of the Chu State, and her noble status is needless to say, so when the news of her death came back, Rong Zhi and Lou Yueqing both went to Putuo Nunnery, and there were also civil and military officials.

As soon as Lou Yueqing arrived, she immediately went to check on the body of the Empress Dowager Qin, and when she saw the body of the Empress Dowager Qin, she immediately frowned and looked fixedly, her eyes were slightly dark.

Empress Dowager Qin and Zhao'er's faces have different degrees of scratches and burns, which are a little scary, and these scars happen to make people unable to see the appearance of the two of them, and they can only be identified by their clothes and tokens on their bodies.

Since it was a fire to death, it was not surprising that it was either smoked to death or burned to death, and it would hurt the appearance, not to mention that now the two corpses not only have injuries on their faces, but also have burn marks on their bodies, and one has been burned to the point that it is almost disfigured, so you can imagine how big the fire is. But how did she feel that something was wrong......

But I can't tell what's wrong......

Now that spring has just begun, the weather is still cold, sometimes there will be a few snowfalls, and the spring rain is continuous, in this case, even if the Empress Dowager Qin set the fire herself, the fire can really be so big that everyone can let the fire spread without anyone noticing?

It's unusual.

Mo Li saw that she had quietly looked at the corpse of the Empress Dowager Qin for a long time without any movement or words, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with the master?"

She wants the Empress Dowager Qin to die, and the Empress Dowager Qin is already dead, she has a heart, so she shouldn't be so sad anymore.

Lou Yueqing was thoughtful and shook her head: "It's not inappropriate......

Everything is normal, she wanted the Empress Dowager Qin to commit suicide, the Empress Dowager Qin committed suicide as she wished, and did not let anyone suspect Rong Zhi and her, did not bring any gossip that should not exist, all this, as she expected, she knew that the Empress Dowager Qin would compromise, but ......

Mo Li raised her eyebrows, and was about to ask something, Lou Yueqing suddenly shook her head, and suddenly said: "I guess I'm thinking too much, since everyone is dead, it doesn't matter how things are......" After a pause, she said lightly: "Let's go!"

Mo Li's head was gone, followed behind Lou Yueqing, and walked out of the hall.

Seeing her come out, Rong Zhi walked up to her and asked calmly, "How is it?"

Lou Yueqing smiled faintly: "No problem!"

Hearing this, Rong Zhi's eyes condensed slightly, pursed his lips and nodded, turned his head to look at the Ministry of Rites Shangshu behind him, and said lightly: "What to do!"

"Yes!" Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites immediately took a few prestigious ministers of the clan and the palace maid into the palace, and prepared to take the body of the Empress Dowager Qin back to the palace.

Lou Yueqing went to the meditation room where the Empress Dowager Qin lived before, and now the meditation room has become a pile of ruins, and the surrounding houses have also been affected.

Lou Yueqing looked at the pile of ruins in front of her, frowned, lifted her skirt and walked over.

Now it is the beginning of spring, it has been raining in recent days, and occasionally it snows, it is very cold, it stands to reason that even if the Empress Dowager Qin intends to set fire**, the fire should not spread so quickly, so fast that it is unreasonable.

As she walked, she suddenly stopped, standing in the midst of the ruins, her brow furrowed.

Lou Yueqing spoke: "Don't leave!"

"Master?"

Lou Yueqing asked, "Did you smell a peculiar smell?"
