Chapter 346: Speculation
Pale and haggard, but, there is no desperate eyes! Xia Qing looked at it carefully, no, it is said that the news that the original body got that the emperor died half a year later, it was because the death of the imperial concubine was heartbroken, and he didn't want to live to seek death before he died of disease, is this a change? Or is it a false rumor, no matter, as long as this person is okay now.
The coffin of the imperial concubine is in the hall, the peony, chrysanthemum, lotus and other flowers and trees that the imperial concubine liked before her death are all surrounded by plain colors, and the offering table is placed, the candles on the table are burning, the big paper basin on the ground is constantly burning paper money, the blue and white curtains are hanging, and there are white and black silk tied into flowers everywhere!
The monks on the side knocked on the wooden fish...... The chanting sounded leisurely!
Xuan Junlin personally put on the incense, kept a stick of incense, and then drove away, the forty-nine monks who were overly excessive were not affected by the emperor's departure, the chanting continued, and the women bowed down to send him away, and then resumed the kneeling posture to continue to kneel the incense, Xia Qing couldn't figure it out! However, there was no way, after the incense was finished, everyone listened to the instructions of the eunuchs, and this batch of women could go back to the house, and then, every seven days came in to offer incense, and they didn't have to enter the palace until after Qiqi! Come once every seven days, it's nothing! Everyone left the mourning hall with a sad face, Xia Qing was used to this kind of sad expression, and maintained it all the way. Everyone quietly prepared to leave.
At this time, there was an episode, and a county lord fainted! Fortunately, a lady on the side helped her, so that she did not fall and her nose and face were swollen. However, this lady did not have much strength left, and the two stumbled and touched a few more women before they stood on their feet, causing a commotion!
The women have not eaten meat since they entered the palace, and many of them have been vain in their feet, and their faces have turned yellow. But as for it, as for fainting, Xia Qing, who brought her own kitchen, said that she didn't understand, she didn't actually eat much meat, and it wasn't so terrible!
It was easy to get out of the gate of Xinghua Palace, and everyone went back to their quarters to pack their belongings and prepare to leave! In fact, after going to kneel incense in the morning, the subordinates of each courtyard began to pack up their things, basically waiting for the master to come back, take a casual rest, and then get on the carriage, set off to go home, and then leave the palace after lunch, but the wives who had been in the palace for 14 days all chose to leave. Xia Qing didn't want to stay for more than a minute, Zhen Niang came and said, "Master, did you bring the food to eat, and you left the palace to go back to the house to eat first?"
"It's definitely going home!" Xia Qing didn't have the idea of keeping a ghost here!
went out of the palace gate, found the carriage at home, put the cage on it, and Xia Qing also got into the carriage. I saw that there was a group of low-level wives who had entered the palace, and they had to be let go so that their carriage could turn to the road, Xia Qing was looking at it, and saw a team of private troops with bright armor over there, and the stone-shaped heart guards were shining, and the one at the head was his cheap father!
The women who were queuing up to enter the palace gate naturally saw it, and then looked at the many carriages parked in front of the private army, and on the coat of one carriage, there was an obvious Mu character, and they knew that this was the carriage of the most popular nobleman Xia County Lord recently! Of course, there were a lot of rumors following the Xia County Lord, and the most bizarre thing was that she was originally the daughter of Shi Dutong! The word illegitimate daughter was cut off and not spoken!
The belts of the private army and the tassels of the helmet are also white, which is to wear filial piety for the imperial concubine according to the system, just like the carriage clothes of the various provinces, which are also hung with white cloth and silk flowers all around!
This atmosphere is really sad, and Xia Qing's heart is also in chaos, and she doesn't know what to say.
A smile appeared on the face of Lord Totong:
"The girl is tired, let's go back to the house to rest!" The private army lined up, someone rode a horse in front to open the road, and someone in the back finished up, Xia Qing's carriage quickly returned to the summer house!
After getting out of the carriage, Xia Qing looked at the capital in front of him, this lord was in good spirits, what about the grief that he said?
"Father, are you alright?"
"Strange thing, what can I do?"
"Imperial Concubine ......"
"Adults don't care about children! Stories are stories after all, what do you think?"
Instructed Mama Mu to take good care of Xia Qing, this girl has a good face, it seems that the child is full of blood after all, and the incense of kneeling for the past few days has not hurt anything!
"Although the kitchen can't move the meat this month, but the vegetarian soup, Chinese medicine or something can be used, Mama looks at it, and replenishes the girl's qi and blood!"
"Yes, sir!" Mama Mu nodded in response!
There are still a lot of things outside, so they all arranged a few words and led the team away! Xia Qing returned to the backyard to rest, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong. But at dinner, Mu Yong'a didn't come back, Xia Qing hadn't seen Mu Dad for several days, and couldn't help but be a little concerned, and asked Mu Steward and said that there have been a lot of things in the palace recently, and the masters have entered the palace frequently, and Mu Dad has actually become a mystery! Okay, this is the right time to be busy, but why did my father come to pick him up? It is said that it should not be Shi Father, who is a high-ranking and powerful person, and his own Mu Da, who is still a vanity general from the second rank, should not be so busy!
A, B, C and D sat in the gatehouse in a serious manner, waiting for the time to be almost up, and then rushed over to report the results of their supervision in the next few days!
"Master, there are four groups of people and horses who feel that there is a problem in the four gates, among which a mother and daughter left in a carriage with not much luggage, and a mother and two daughters left the capital with a lot of luggage! There is a family, in short, Simen saw four families move out of Beijing. ”
Also, at this time, it should be moving into Beijing, not leaving Beijing, these four families are obviously very strange! When Xia Qing listened to their report, she felt that it was the mother and daughter who were very suspicious. Because, Xia Qing knew that if the concubine Niangniang came back from the dead, then she would definitely have a storage bag that she gave to the emperor! It was definitely impossible to go alone, and a palace lady would definitely have it! I didn't hear that the servants were executed in Xingqing Palace, so ...... Just suspicion.
"Master, I also saw that the master led the team out of Beijing!"
"When?"
"It's the twenty-first day......"
"Is the mother and daughter in front of the master or behind the king?"
"Ahead!"
I didn't come back today, twelve or three days, where is this going, the destination is a little far away, Xia Qing thought about it, and put her heart down, don't worry too much about these things! (To be continued.) )
