The torn clothes on Mu Xiaoxia's body have been replaced, and the mud and blood stains on his face and hands have also been sorted out, but the scratches are still scratches after all, but they can no longer heal.

Qinglian and Yushu knelt beside Mu Xiaoxia's head, and were arranging Mu Xiaoxia's hair little by little with their hands.

Shu E stepped forward, Zhan Xi hurriedly stopped, and said in a low voice: "Xiaocai people unfortunately died, Shu Meiren should be careful." Shu E remembered Lanchuan's little follower Qixian, knowing that there were many taboos about the dead population in the Dao Palace, she nodded and walked to Mu Xiaoxia's side.

Mu Xiaoxia's face was not seriously damaged, but the hair on the back of his head was particularly messy. Looking closely at the hair in Qinglian and Yushu's hands, it was almost a canopy of dry and scattered hair that was tangled together, especially the clumps of blood on the roots of the hair, which was even more shocking.

Mu Xiaoxia's hands were placed squarely at his sides, and he looked very stiff. There were scratches on the backs of both hands, and they were dark red with lifelessness.

Shu E came from the sadness, remembering that a few months ago in Yujin Garden for the summer, the emperor took Mu Xiaoxia to visit him in the secluded fence. At that time, Mu Xiaoxia wore a water-blue gold-sprinkled cardigan sleeveless jacket, which was covered with a moon-white dark flower collared shirt and an apricot yellow pleated silk skirt.

About three inches wide light gold brocade embroidered waist on the yellow (corset) tied out of the soft bee waist, really with a golden peacock, fragrant embroidered bee waist. A yellow palace silk is tied around the waist, and a piece of emerald green and transparent jasper is embellished underneath the skirt.

Mu Xiaoxia walked briskly step by step, and the jade appeared and disappeared under the corner of the aqua blue gown. The corners of the skirt are full of wind, and the golden corset makes the girl in front of her beautiful.

Shu E only felt that at a glance, her whole person was bright and bright, just like her voice tone.

On that day, Mu Xiaoxia's hair was divided into one bridle and one bridle after another, each bridle was wrapped with goose-yellow thread to be an inch long, and then the hair was coiled diagonally on his right sideburn. The broken hair was also tied up with silk thread and hung down to the ears. There is only a small jasper hairpin inserted in the hair to decorate.

At that time, Mu Xiaoxia's broken hair was not all tied up, and it was still the outfit when she was a girl. But at that time, Mu Xiaoxia had already accepted the favor, and was given the title by the emperor and renamed the Xi Imperial Attendant.

Shu E even thought about it, could it be that Mu Xiaoxia was the same as Dong Qingning and Liao Jingzhi, who were only nominally summoned by the emperor, but in fact they were not favored?

But at that time, Mu Xiaoxia's face was full of joy, and the playful tone of joking with Shu E was also natural and innocent. , but there was no Dong Qingning's dissatisfaction with being called unfortunately.

At this time, Shu E couldn't remember which verse she changed at that time, and made fun of Mu Xiaoxia, but she still remembered that after Mu Xiaoxia heard it, she smiled at the emperor with a red face: "Your Majesty, you see, Shu E is so bad." ”

Such an innocent demeanor is unforgettable at first sight. It's just that the names Qinglian and Yushu were discussed, and some inconsequential things were said. If you talk about real friendship, it's just this faint side of friendship.

But to this day, thinking of Mu Xiaoxia, Shu E still can't help but think of the scene of that day.

The original Ruhua smile is now defeated, the original Ruyu's hands are now broken, and the original silky hair is now withered.

Shu E reached out to shake Mu Xiaoxia's hand, as if it was still the distance of a few rows of big trees in the back garden the afternoon before yesterday, so close that it was almost within reach. However, now this hand maintains a posture with five fingers open, and it is impossible to hold anything.

At the moment when she touched Mu Xiaoxia's cold and smooth palm, Shu E suddenly felt a thrill in her heart, and her outstretched hand couldn't help but tremble, and the whole person stayed there.

Zhan Xi hurriedly stepped forward to support Shu E and said, "Shu Meiren is fine, right?" ”

Shu E stared at the palm of her hand for a long time, then looked at Mu Xiaoxia's other palm, and suddenly shook her head and said, "I have nothing to do." ”

Ignoring Zhanxi's dissuasion, Shu E took a closer look at Mu Xiaoxia again.

Suddenly, a low voice said: "Back to Shu Meiren, the coffin is ready, just waiting for Xiaocai to be buried." Shu E suddenly raised her head and saw that it was Xu Songjie who spoke. Shu E's impression of the Xu family was so bad that she would not be spoiled by Concubine Rong's difficulties, and when she saw the Xu family coming in to reply, she also stood up and agreed.

When Qinglian and Yushu heard that they were going to prepare to pretend to be a talented person, they immediately let out a loud cry of sorrow. Seeing a few little eunuchs standing aside with their hands down and waiting to prepare for the funeral, Shu E didn't stop Qinglian and Yushu, but just persuaded Haosheng: "Take a look, there is anything wrong with Xiaocai, let's be physiological." ”

Qinglian stretched out her hand to stroke Xiaocairen's messy hair, and looked at the scars on her skin that could not be repaired, and couldn't help but feel sad again. Shu E immediately knew in her heart that there were too many inappropriatenesses in Mu Xiaoxia.

Zhan Xi also persuaded: "It's not too early, the two girls still let Xiaocai people be buried." There is a certain moment in everything, and being so reluctant has delayed Xiaocairen. ”

The affairs of the talented people here were properly taken care of, and they were placed in the mourning hall erected in the west side hall of the Taiqing Building. Shu E said to Zhanxi: "Please go back to the queen so that she doesn't have to worry about it." ”

There were concubines in the palace, and the other concubines were to go to the spirit to offer sacrifices. But at this moment, the other concubines are in the Chunxi Pavilion, and the emperor is also in the Yaoyang Pavilion, and the mourning hall is extremely deserted.

Shu E stood in front of the spirit, leading the Xu family, Qinglian Yushu and a few maids, and replied to the visitors.

For a while, Zhu Yan and a few other grandmothers left, Yushu and Qinglian walked to Shu E and knelt down in front of Shu E, and bowed to Shu E a few times. Shu E also said that they were too sad and hurriedly asked them to get up, but the two refused to get up, just sobbed and said: "Our girl's affairs, thank you Shu Meiren for presiding over here." My girl knows the soul and will be grateful to Shu Meiren. ”

Shu E sighed: "It's really because it's too coincidental, the Qin beauty is about to give birth, and Concubine Rong found that note again, maybe someone has seen your lady before she stumbled and fell." The emperor also knew about the note, and the queen saw that the emperor cared, so she naturally didn't dare to ignore it. Otherwise, it's not too late to wait for your lady to check it slowly. That's why I can do my best in front of your lady, which is also the meaning of the queen's concern for your lady. ”

Yushu stood up, looked at the Xu family and walked out, turned around and nodded to Qinglian, Qinglian bowed again, and said in a low voice: "The matter of the note, do Shu Meiren know what is going on with Lu Dao?" ”

Shu E saw that the two behaved differently, and listened to Qinglian's question, and the doubts in her heart deepened, pulled Qinglian up, and said, "Concubine Rong said that when she found the note, I was still with Qin Meiren. Didn't you find the note with Concubine Rong? ”
