Xiao Xu hugged Gu Guanning tightly, and his eyes fell on Cui Junying, who was not breathing.

Since Cui Junying entered the palace, this is the first time Xiao Xu has looked at her.

This beautiful young life has now withered and withered.

Xiao Xu couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Concubine Cui died for you, which can be called loyalty." Then I ordered her father and brother to be called for her to see her one last time. ”

Gu Wanning choked and buried his head in Xiao Xu's chest.

Xiao Xu lowered his head and coaxed Gu Wanning softly.

The husband and wife are their own world.

This side of the world is so small that there is no room for a third person.

Min Fang kept bowing her head and crying, but Fu Yu watched this scene in a daze, tears kept sliding down her cheeks.

……

A moment later, Cui Shangshu led his three sons into the Jiaofang Palace.

Cui Shangshu, who attaches the most importance to etiquette, strode like a meteor at this time, and didn't care about saluting anyone. When he saw Cui Junying lying on the ground, he suddenly burst into tears, shouted sadly, "My son's life is over", and fell straight down.

Cui Dalang Cui Erlang was quick to catch Cui Shangshu and avoid the fate of Cui Shangshu falling to the ground and being injured.

Cui Saburo quickly stepped forward, knelt in front of Cui Junying's corpse, and cried bitterly.

Cui Dalang and Cui Erlang also wept.

The boy bleeds without tears, just because he hasn't reached the sad place!

This scene made the audience sad and the listeners shed tears. I don't know how many people wiped their tears.

Empress Dowager Min is the most soft-hearted, she has never seen such a scene in her life, and her eyes quickly turned red: "Xu Cang, hurry up and show Cui Shangshu." Cui Shangshu is the minister of the humerus of the imperial court, and there must be no trouble. ”

Xu Cang responded in a deep voice, walked to Cui Shangshu's side, and pinched Cui Shangshu's people hard. Seeing that Cui Shangshu had not woken up, he took out the gold needle bag he carried with him and took out the slender gold needle.

After a few stitches, Cui Shangshu woke up leisurely.

After waking up, there was another long cry of grief.

There was a cry in the hall.

Gu Wanning broke free from Xiao Xu's arms, stood up straight, straightened his appearance, and gave the order: "What happened in the palace today, no one is allowed to discuss it! Everyone goes back to their own dormitory, and they can't leave the dormitory for half a step without a call." ”

The crowd retreated in response.

……

Min Fang and Fu Yu were the youngest, and they were the last to leave the Jiaofang Palace.

Before leaving, Fu Yu subconsciously glanced back. From this angle, I couldn't see Cui Junying's face clearly, only her stiff figure could be seen......

Tears welled up in her eyes.

Min Fang kept trembling, muttering "how could this be" and "why there were assassins".

Fu Yu's mind was chaotic and stiff, and he didn't have any thoughts. After returning to the dormitory, he locked himself in the dormitory and sat in a daze all night.

She and Cui Junying are close in age and have known each other since childhood. After entering the palace, he has always been quite friendly.

Cui Junying's death also hit and stimulated her the most.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a voice in my ears.

"Miss," the maid who followed Fu Yu into the palace pulled Fu Yu's sleeve with a worried face: "Miss, don't scare the slave maid." ”

Fu Yu raised his head blankly, barely focusing in his eyes, and asked in a low voice after a while, "What time is it?"

The maid wiped her tears and replied in a low voice, "It's already dawn." ”

Before I knew it, it had been a night.

Fu Yu was like a wood carving, not smiling or moving, and sat for a long time before opening his mouth again: "Is there any movement in the Jiaofang Palace?"

The maid sniffed and replied, "The queen has an order that no one is allowed to listen to the movements in the Jiaofang Palace." The slave and maid only vaguely heard that the emperor was extra gracious and asked Cui Shangshu and his son to bring Concubine Cui's body back to Cui's house for burial. I think that Concubine Cui's body was buried last night. ”

A dead man, there is nothing to talk about.

The maid paused for a moment and then said, "The assassin who disguised himself as a dancing girl and infiltrated the palace did not know what his identity was, let alone who secretly instructed him. The queen mother had to thoroughly investigate the court. For some time to come, the young lady will have to be extra cautious so as not to cause trouble. ”

Fu Yu shuddered and woke up from the sad news of his friend's death.

Oh, yes!

What if Empress Gu took this opportunity to count this matter on her head? Doing so would naturally be beneficial to Empress Gu. Naturally get rid of her thorn in the eye......

Fu Yuhua's face was pale, her eyes were full of horror, and her voice trembled: "Let someone send a message back to the Fu family, tell my grandfather that I am in a difficult situation in the palace, and let my grandfather must think of a way to help me." ”

The maid said with a look of embarrassment: "It's better to be still than to be still." At this time, if the young lady asks her to go back to the house to deliver the letter, what if the queen finds out and mistakenly thinks that this matter is really related to the young lady?"

Fu Yu had no master, and he was already so panicked that he had no idea: "Then what should I do? What should I do? I will go to the Jiaofang Hall now to ask to see Niangniang and explain it to her." It has nothing to do with me from beginning to end!"

"Come with me!"

The maid looked at Fu Yu's appearance at this time, and her heart sank straight down.

The young lady was mentally unstable, and her speech was reversed, and she looked so frightened that she lost her mind.

……

Empress Dowager Min also stayed awake all night.

The next morning, Mrs. Min was haggard and her eyes were red, and she didn't wait for Gu Wanning to come to ask for peace, so she went to the Jiaofang Palace.

The main hall has been cleaned clean, and there is not a trace of blood. As if nothing had happened last night.

"Guan Ning, has Concubine Cui been buried?" asked Empress Dowager Min in a deep voice.

Gu Wanning's spirit was not as good as before, and he responded softly: "I was buried last night." Cui Shangshu ordered someone to send a letter into the palace early in the morning, saying that if Concubine Cui could block the assassin's blow for me, it would be worth it to die of poison. So I don't have to feel guilty. ”

When Empress Dowager Min heard this, she also felt a little sorry in her heart, and said with a long sigh: "The Cui family is really loyal! Such loyal ministers, the emperor must greatly praise them, and they must not treat the Cui family badly." ”

Gu Wanning responded: "What the queen mother said is." The emperor also said so, and today in the court, the Cui family will be rewarded. The emperor planned to let Cui Saburo also do the Zhongshu order and run errands with Fu Zhuo. ”

Fu Zhuo has been a companion of the Son of Heaven since he was a child, and now he drafts holy decrees for the Son of Heaven and handles various clerical affairs, which can be called his right-hand man. Cui Sanlang jumped in, which shows the importance that the Son of Heaven attaches to the Cui family.

Empress Dowager Min replied without thinking: "This is also the way it should be." This Concubine Cui saved your life. It is impossible to overstate how to reward the Cui family. ”

After a pause, he asked angrily, "Have you ever found out the origin of the assassin's identity?" Who is it that secretly instructed someone to enter the palace and assassinate you?"

has the ability to send assassins into the palace and kill Gu Wanning. To be able to do this, it is obviously not an ordinary idle person.
