When Emperor Yanping died, the crown prince and several close ministers who could speak in the past rushed to Lishan to see the so-called last face, and listened to the will by the way, but it was a step too late, and when it arrived, only the queen who was dressed in plain clothes announced the bad news of "His Majesty Xià died" with an expressionless face, and the wind and Taishui cried for a while.

The news reached the palace, when the night was heard of the funeral ceremony, the death knell in Beijing rang all night, and there was a dull sound, Xu Lian couldn't sleep by herself, worried that the child would also lose sleep, and went to see it in person, but the little fox slept very peacefully, and did not forget to spit bubbles in the dream, so Xu Lian couldn't help but poke his pink face.

Walking out of the child's room, a cold wind blew, Xu Lian subconsciously shivered, Chun Tao came up to put on a big coat, Xu Lian wrapped herself tightly and walked back slowly, and suddenly remembered the matter of the third prince.

"How is the illness of the third emperor brother, is the cough still bad?"

"Don't worry, the imperial doctor has come to take a look, I've been hungry for a day, and I've prescribed a few medicines and now I'm much better."

Xu Lian frowned, she couldn't listen to this kind of hungry child's method of stimulating their own resistance and then prescribing medicine, and instructed: "Keep an eye on it, the first emperor has just left, and nothing can go wrong at this time." ”

Chun Tao should go down, Xu Lian thought about it or was not at ease, felt that it was safer to go and see it, and walked to the little uncle's residence, Chun Tao hurriedly persuaded: "It's so late, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Niang Niang to go over, Your Royal Highness will be afraid that she will also take medicine and sleep, Niang Niang will go this time, they still have to take over, but disturb." ”

Xu Lian was very helpless, what was wrong, it was a baby who was less than ten years old, who framed the two of them for having a □□ because she was a sister-in-law who went to visit the sick uncle at night, she asked him to demonstrate how he did such a difficult thing, and the unhappy tone in his heart also brought out a little toughness: "What's this?" You let people go over in advance to say hello, and the palace secretly went over, so that they were not allowed to disturb the prince's rest. ”

Chun Tao couldn't stop it and had to do it, Xu Lian had already turned off the lights when she arrived, and the palace people on duty outside the door looked very vigilant, Xu Lian glanced through the window and planned to go back, and suddenly heard a noise from inside the house, whimpering, as if sobbing.

Xu Lian hesitated, took a sheep's horn wind lamp with her own hands, walked in, the little person was wrapped in the quilt, sideways to the inside, looking like she was asleep, Xu Lian called, the third prince turned around slowly, and the little face with tears on her face.

Xu Lian sighed, she knew that the death knell sounded like this, and the little fox slept well unconsciously because her heart was not disturbed, and she didn't believe that the third prince could sleep so peacefully.

Xu Lian put the lantern on the table, untied the big one, took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears for him, and the third prince sniffed and asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, is my father a big deal?"

How much Xu Lian hoped that this child would be more innocent, and she could coax him with words such as Elysium and going to a distant place, now she could only stare into his eyes and say the most cruel words in the gentlest tone: "My father has been lying on the couch for a long time, and he is indeed gone." ”

The third prince listened without blinking, and his eyes were full of tears, and he only insisted on not allowing it to fall.

"If you want to cry, cry, but promise the imperial sister-in-law not to cry too fiercely, after the funeral, it will be a crying spirit, which will cry too hard and hurt your body, and you won't be able to hold it at that time."

The third prince didn't answer, and asked again: "Will my mother come when I cry?"

Xu Lian couldn't bear to say anything more, she didn't answer, the third prince wanted to say something more, and she didn't finish her words when she was excited for a while, and she coughed violently for a while, Xu Lian followed his back for him: "You have been cold for a few days, why are you still so powerful, have you drunk all the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor?" ”

If you say that you can take medicine for a good cold for a week, can you get better without taking medicine for seven days?

The child naturally comforted her and said that she didn't have to worry about the soup, Xu Lian couldn't rest assured, and asked him a few words about eating and living, and the result was a clue.

"Who brought you all these nourishing menses?"

Children can't eat such supplemental things is one of them, many of them are sweet and greasy will hurt their throats, no wonder the cough can't get better, Xu Lian was a little angry, and her heart was caught by her, no matter who beat it first, she would talk about it, but the third prince was a little spitting, and it looked inconvenient to say.

Xu Lian was perfectly possessed by all kinds of heroes at this moment, so she almost patted her chest and assured him: "Don't be afraid, tell the truth, the imperial sister-in-law will call the shots for you." ”

The victim looked embarrassed and said, "Isn't it the imperial sister-in-law who sent someone to send here?" ”

Xu Lian: Is it okay when she didn't say anything about the OS just now?

Naturally, things are not so simple, after Xu Lian went back, she immediately asked Chun Tao what was going on, Chun Tao was also out of a blind state for the time being, and said that she would go down to investigate immediately, Xu Lian stopped her, at this time, it was not enough to make a fuss when the world was investigating people, so don't make a noise first, pay attention to it secretly, and wait until the national funeral is over.

In fact, she can guess who it is without checking, there are really not many candidates, and you can use the elimination method.

To say that the palace wants to hope that the third prince dies the queen the most, and now it should be called the queen mother, but her mother-in-law has always done things without dragging her feet, and if she doesn't make a move, it will definitely not be as simple as a child catching a cold and being old, specifying it to be a bizarre violent death or accidental death, but it is impossible for her to let this kind of thing happen in the East Palace, otherwise the basin will fall on the prince's head, so the queen is excluded.

The second is the crown prince, the reason is the same as the queen, plus a point, judging from his cherishing of brotherhood some time ago, if this will suddenly worry that this younger brother will snatch the throne with him and kill him, there is only one explanation, crazy or worn, so the prince ruled out.

The only thing left is to harm the three princes to find Xu Lian unhappy can be explained, Emperor Yanping just went, it can be said that the bones are not cold, at this time, if something happens to the third prince, it is appropriate to deduct a charge of unkindness to the prince, no matter how bad it is, it is always her sister-in-law who has not taken care of it, judging from the child's illness is not strict, there are more possibilities to favor the latter, the third prince has not been taken care of, she is careless as a sister-in-law, judging from the prince's importance to this royal brother, she must eat and hang, So the prince doesn't like her because of this, who is the ultimate beneficiary?

Isn't the direct benefit of the remaining three famous women? Mo's Zhang family's position is too low, there is no capital to compete with her, and the only one who has the capital, courage and position to oppose her is the Zhou family.

Choosing to find her at such a time is not happy, because she is determined that she can't make a big fuss, and she will really choose the time, Xu Lian hatefully asked people to deliver a message to Mama Han, and explained the meaning thoroughly, focusing on the fact that the third prince was not taken care of and delayed the reputation of the prince.

In fact, in fact, Mama Han is the one who takes care of other people's lives.

Chun Tao hesitated: "Although the food and clothing of the Third Highness has always been taken care of by Mama, now if something happens, it will not be investigated, but handed over to Mama, even if Mama wants to investigate thoroughly, if Niangniang does not speak, it is not right." ”

Xu Lian snorted: "There are some things that I don't want to make trouble about, but Mama is convenient, Zhou thought it was just a slap in my face, and I didn't want to think that the face of this East Palace grandmother was also slapped by her." ”

In the end, this matter was retribution, and it added to Zhou's obstruction in some small matters.

For example, the mourning should be vegetarian, but the dining room has a skill is to make the vegetarian taste of meat, that is to say a little thought, under the instruction of Mama Han, Zhou's daily meal has become vegan, no meat taste, and also boasted that the side concubine is pure filial piety, grief the first emperor, tea and rice do not think, meat does not touch, so that the famous Zhou family even suffers from the law, and then for example, the winter house is cold, one relies on the earth dragon and the other relies on charcoal, the earth dragon only has Xu Lian's main courtyard, Zhou's side courtyard basically only relies on charcoal, which is the best charcoal, Although there is no need for Xu Lian's silver silk carbon, it is only a little worse, and now it has been replaced by the kind that is inferior and burns a room of smoke, this Zhou wants to cry, but unfortunately Mama Han, who is in charge, does not care, Xu Lian is closed and gone, there is really no place to cry.

Xu Lian listened to the report of the people below and learned that the Zhou family was repaired by Mama Han, and said that she deserved it, so she devoted all her thoughts to dealing with the crying spirit after the funeral.

As usual, the body of Emperor Yanping was transported back to the palace, and he stayed in the Yunguang Hall for seven days on weekdays to show that he was dying, and the queen also returned, leading the internal and external women to cry in front of the spirit twice in the morning and evening for three consecutive days.

Xu Lian is naturally among them, she has never knelt for such a long time since she entered the palace, she is afraid in her heart, she can't kneel on her knees easily, think about the embarrassment of falling down and being discovered, she really went to find that the palace is still a little humane, and sent a futon to one of them, although it is useless to kneel for a long time, in addition, she was surprised to find that there are even people in the clan who come to cry with a big belly, thinking about the hardships of others, Xu Lian feels that she really has nothing to complain about.

Kneeling for a whole day, and a vat of saline, Xu Lian was originally worried that she couldn't cry, but the spring peach was ready early, and with a medicine, the tears flowed down like no money, but she cried a lot or her eyes hurt, Xu Lian paid attention to it with a pair of walnut eyes, and the crying concubine was full of unfamiliar faces, and the concubine and the concubine did not appear.

At night, when the steamed bun took a hot handkerchief and eggs to Xu Lian's eyes, Xu Lian asked, "Where were Concubine Shu and Concubine Rou moved?"

The steamed bun said that Concubine Rou didn't know, and there were many sayings about Concubine Shu, such as hanging herself in the palace, martyrdom of the emperor, or cutting her hair for the Nining Pagoda but remaining alive, of course, the most widely spread was secretly executed by the Queen Mother.

Xu Lian's acceptance of this statement is relatively high, and there is already an endless situation between the two of them, but she only pities the third prince, and after listening to these many rumors, she doesn't know how to be sad.

But soon, everyone found out that they were wrong, the Queen Mother did not secretly kill her former rival, she did not hide anything and sent someone to kill him on the day of the end of Emperor Yanping's death. The princess's journey through daily life
