Chapter 398: Aftermath
The little palace maid nodded yes.
Su Zixu's eyes darkened, and he muttered, "How can this be?" ”
As soon as the words fell, she sat down on the soft collapse, and her mood could not be calm for a long time.
The emperor actually gave Concubine Shen to death, she always thought that Concubine Shen's crime would not lead to death, and at most she would be grounded for life.
The palace maid said again: "Niangniang, the slave maid heard that Concubine Shen was poisoned by herself, and at noon today, when the personal palace maid beside Concubine Shen entered the house, she found that she went." ”
Su Zixu slowly raised his eyes, frowned and said, "You just said that Concubine Shen died by suicide?" ”
The little palace maid nodded: "When the emperor went to Yaoyun Palace yesterday, he announced a lifetime ban on Concubine Shen. After a pause, she continued, "The palace people said that she couldn't stand the stimulation and committed suicide. ”
Self-killing?
Su Zixu was stunned.
She lowered her eyebrows and carefully recalled what Concubine Shen said to her yesterday, her eyes flashed slightly, and she suddenly said, "I see." ”
No wonder she felt that what Concubine Shen said to her yesterday was very strange, but she couldn't grasp a clue, it turned out that she had the idea of suicide at that time, but she didn't know.
Su Zixu couldn't help but sigh a few times.
The things in the past are like yesterday, they have not changed, but now, they are leaving one after another, this harem is really a place to eat people.
No matter what Concubine Shen said, she is a lady who knows etiquette, how can she be so stupid! With her cleverness, she will definitely know that the emperor will not embarrass her, as long as she bows her head and admits a few mistakes, when Hua Shuyi's matter passes, the grounding can be avoided.
Concubine Shen still followed her old path after all.
Now that you have entered the palace, you should understand that the emperor's heart is like a fantasy that cannot be touched. For the sake of love, willing to die, such courage and perseverance, if used elsewhere, is a thousand times better than such an ending, which is really tragic.
"Mother, another one." Liuli said abruptly.
Su Zixu groaned for a while, stood up, and walked to the outer room.
"Hongu is going to see her."
"Niangniang, you ......" Liuli chased after her, stopped talking, thought about it, and pursed her lips tightly.
Hua Shuyi's mother was involved in it, and she went to Yaoyun Palace yesterday to see Concubine Shen, and now that Concubine Shen is gone, others will suspect Niangniang.
Thinking of this, Liuli couldn't help but worry in her heart.
Looking at Su Zixu's back, she hurriedly chased after her.
She really didn't know how to dissuade her mother.
……
On the other side, the scene is chaotic.
Wan'er sat slumped on the ground, her voice hoarse, and muttered to herself, "Miss, why can't you think about it." ”
She looked down and sobbed, so grief-stricken that she could no longer shed a single tear.
It was only a moment's work, and there was already a lot of people in the room.
Wan'er gently wiped away her tears, staggered to the bedside, and looked at Concubine Shen with a peaceful face, her eyes red again.
Her afterglow skimmed over the two letters on Concubine Shen's bedside, one of which had the word guan'er on it.
Guan'er has been by Concubine Shen's side since she was a child and knows a lot of words.
She picked up the letter in confusion, and when she saw the contents clearly, she raised her head and wailed: "Miss." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a burning pain in her throat, and the few tears that were left fell down the way.
She took Concubine Shen's hand and murmured firmly: "Niangniang, if there is an afterlife, the slave and maid will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay your kindness." Don't be afraid, the slave will be with you soon. ”
After that, in the stunned reaction of everyone, Guan'er struggled to hit the head of the bed, rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground, and the dazzling blood on his forehead immediately flowed out.
She was lying in a pool of blood, her eyes widened, and a little palace maid trembled and stepped forward, probed her nose, trembled her lips and said, "Death... He's dead. ”
The house was in chaos again.
When Emperor Yan heard the news, Guan'er's body had already been disposed of by the palace people, leaving only the smell of blood all over the house.
A palace man stepped forward and whispered a few words beside Furen, and then stepped aside.
Furen stepped forward and replied softly: "Your Majesty, Guan'er, who is serving Concubine Shen, followed Concubine Shen Niangniang to go with her, and the people are still in the side hall." ”
Although Guan'er is a palace maid, she was brought into the palace by Concubine Shen to serve her, and there is a difference from other palace people, without Emperor Yan's order, the palace people dare not bury her at will.
Emperor Yan snorted, walked to the bed, and looked at Concubine Shen for a long time.
Furen's eyes were sharp, and he saw the heart at the head of the bed at a glance, and stepped forward to take it and handed it to Emperor Yan.
After Emperor Yan finished reading it, his eyes darkened, and his voice was extremely deep, "It's good to deal with the aftermath, don't treat her badly, the palace maid will be buried next to her." ”
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the main room, raising his eyes to look at the sky, his eyes moving slightly.
Fukuhito nodded and jotted down his words one by one.
Furen followed, separated from him by some distance, bowing his head and sighing.
On this side, Su Zixu rushed over non-stop.
Walking into the courtyard, she saw Emperor Yan and couldn't help but be stunned.
Emperor Yan walked over to her, stretched out his hand to hug her, rested his head on her shoulder, and was silent.
Su Zixu was stunned again.
Ruri lowered her head and stepped aside in a playful manner.
After a long time, she slowly raised her hand, put it down again, paused for a while, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”
Emperor Yan's warm and powerful arms wrapped around her tightly, and Su Zixu felt that he was a little helpless, hesitated for a while, and still didn't raise his hand.
Xing'er, who had just accompanied Queen Liu to Yaoyun Palace, saw the two people in the courtyard from a distance, and reminded loudly: "Niangniang, the emperor." ”
Queen Liu raised her eyes, and then her steps froze.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps behind him.
Xing'er looked back, it was Qi Guifei.
But after a while, the concubines of the harem came.
Seeing Queen Liu standing there, they all stopped, and when they saw the situation in the courtyard, their faces changed.
Su Zixu heard the sound and hugged him without hesitation.
Seeing this, Liuli hurriedly gave Su Zixu a look.
Su Zixu gently withdrew from Emperor Yan's arms, squinted his eyes and looked back, and said, "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here." ”
Emperor Yan glanced at the group of concubines and said lightly, "Go back." ”
After he said that, in the surprised looks of those concubines, he said in a deep voice: "Let's all go back." Then he left Yaoyun Palace.
There was a loud squeak, and the palace people pulled the door of Concubine Shen's bedroom.
Su Zixu nodded slightly to Queen Liu, and took Liuli out of the palace.
After being stunned for a long time, the people in the courtyard gradually dispersed, and a gust of wind blew into the courtyard, leaving a bleak hall.
……
Out of Yaoyun Palace, Liuli looked behind her frequently and whispered, "Niangniang, the queen also came out." ”
Su Zixu responded indifferently: "Hmm." ”
Her steps grew heavy, and her thoughts began to drift off into the distance.
Three years ago, when she died, it should have been this scene, right? People go to tea and cool, and their lives are just so short, I hope Concubine Shen is all right.
