Chapter 91: Mei Xiang's Death

I thought that this incident would be in the past, but sometimes I don't think it will be the way things turned out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This morning, I saw Chen Xi call the housekeeper to a separate place, only to see that his face was not very good-looking, I always felt like something had happened, hesitated again and again, and finally I followed and hid not far away and listened quietly to the conversation between the two of them.

"Have you confirmed?" Chenxi asked.

"Yes, Fourth Master, it is a friend in the palace who has always been good with villains to ask someone to bring a message to the Four Kings' Mansion in the morning, and there will be no fake." The butler bowed his head and replied.

As soon as I heard that it was in the palace, the worry in my heart was mentioned in my voice, could it be that something happened in the palace, looking at Chenxi's face, it was obviously not a good thing.

"yes, I see." Chenxi's voice was low and a little hoarse, and he continued: "She is the queen's favorite maid before her death, you go and take care of it, and ask them to arrange her afterlife." ”

"Yes, Fourth Master."

At that time, my head was pounded, as if someone had been knocked hard, and it was not until the butler left that I realized what was going on from the conversation between the two of them.

Mei Xiang is dead..........................

That's right, the "she" in Chenxi's mouth is Mei Xiang, but what I can't figure out is how Mei Xiang died for no reason, and it's been a long time since the last time, so I thought it would be okay, so how could I 。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

I came out from the side and walked straight to Chenxi's side, and Chenxi turned around sharply, obviously not expecting me to appear here.

"Is it true?" I asked.

Chen Xi was startled and quickly said calmly: "What is really fake?" Bingxi, what are you talking about, why can't I understand? ”

He deliberately played sloppy and didn't want me to know about it.

But no matter how much he tried to hide it, I could hear it clearly.

I looked at him and said, "I've heard everything you and the butler just said, so, Chenxi, don't try to hide it from me, you know my personality." ”

That's right, Chen Xi he knows, in the Northern Desert, no one knows me better than him, once I want to know something, no matter how much I hide it, it won't help, because I will keep chasing after me.

Chen Xi looked at me with some surprise, maybe he didn't expect me to eavesdrop on the side, he was silent for a long time, he couldn't resist me, so he said slowly: "Okay, Bingxi, since you already know about this, then I won't hide it from you." ”

I looked at him, didn't speak, and listened quietly.

"That's right, what you heard just now is indeed true, it's about Mei Xiang, I heard people in the palace say that her body was found by the river this morning, she died last night, the specific reason is not clear for the time being, and it remains to be traced."

Sure enough, it was Mei Xiang, why did she die like this, such a good girl, she is still so young, her life has just begun, and she hasn't had time to take a good look at the world, how can she leave like this.

I can't figure out whether it was her own or someone else's fault. Finally, I thought about what happened last time, could it be that it was the incident that killed her?

"Chenxi, I want to go to the palace." I looked at Chen and said word by word.

This time, I didn't hide from him and secretly went out of the palace to the palace, nor did I do things well on my own, because I now deeply realized that the palace is not as simple as I imagined, every step has to be frightening, and if you make a slight mistake, you can lose your life at any time.

"No, I won't let you go." Chenxi's attitude was very strong this time, and he objected to me going to the palace.

I understand what he's worried about, Mei Xiang's death gave him a warning, he doesn't want anything to happen to me, but despite his opposition, I still want to go, I just want to go and see her one last time, if it weren't for my rash beginning, I didn't discuss it with Chen Xi, maybe things wouldn't be like this, or maybe Mei Xiang wouldn't leave.

"Whether you agree with it or not, I'm going." I looked at him with a clear attitude.

This time was the first time I didn't listen to him, and the first time I confronted him.

The imperial grandmother said that people can do wrong things, but they should have the courage to face things when they do wrong, and avoiding them is not solving things, but only making things worse.

After a while, he saw that he could not convince me, so he had to agree to me, but only if he would go with me.

I didn't refuse his request because I knew that what he decided couldn't be easily changed.

Chen Xi accompanied me to the palace, and it happened that Chen Xi had a case to report to the emperor, nominally so, but in fact, only me and he knew that this trip was not like this.

Along the way, we were silent and didn't say a word, because we had something on our minds, so we had mixed feelings and didn't want to speak. Along the way, I thought a lot, thought a lot, and my mood became much calmer, no matter whether this matter was done by Concubine Rong or not, I would not impulsively go to her to theorize, people can't be resurrected after death, even if I can't change anything, people are dead, and it's useless to argue about some so-called indifference, it will only bring unnecessary trouble to the living.

The reason why this is so is not because I am timid, but because there are some things that I can't solve, an emperor, supreme, but sometimes he also has his own last resort and suffering, and I, a woman, what can I do? My biggest hope now is to keep the people around me from being hurt and do my best to make my heart feel better.

It is precisely because I still have so many that I can't let go and am reluctant, so I have to care about the people around me and cherish every minute and every second.

After a while, the carriage stopped, and Chenxi and I glanced at each other and got out of the carriage.

"Don't you really need me with you? Ice tides? Before leaving, Chen Xi asked uneasily

I shook my head and replied, "No, Fourth Master, you go and get busy with you." ”

I insisted again and again, and Chenxi had to reluctantly agree.

Qianping and I were taken to a remote place by two minions arranged by Chen Xi in advance.

"Fourth princess, this house is where Mei Xiang lived before her death, since I learned the news of her death, the palace maids who lived with her before didn't dare to live here for fear of being haunted in the middle of the night, so they moved elsewhere, so there was no one left, there was Mei Xiang's body inside, the fourth master had ordered the small one to take care of it in advance, and the small one was guarding outside the door, and he could order him at any time if he had something." Said one of the leading minions.

It's no wonder that on the way here, there are very few other people to see, and it seems quiet.

I nodded, and Qianping and I went into the house.

It turned out that Chenxi had already taken care of everything on the way here, and sure enough, he was thoughtful.

Qianping and I entered the house, only to see Mei Xiang change into clean clothes, lying quietly, motionless.

I approached slowly and looked at her, she was calm, she didn't have any struggle before she died.

At this time, Qianping's eyes were sharp, and she stepped forward to take out a letter from under Mei Xiang's pillow.

"Princess, look, this seems to have been written by Mei Xiang." Qianping handed me the letter.

I hurriedly took the letter and opened it, the font was fresh and handsome, I didn't expect a little slave to be able to write such a beautiful handwriting.

Mei Xiang wrote in the letter:

Fourth princess, Mei Xiang doesn't know if this letter can be seen by you, if you see this letter, Mei Xiang must be dead at this moment. Mei Xiang has nothing else to ask for, I just hope to say sorry to the four princesses, please forgive Mei Xiang for saying the unwillingness to say in front of the emperor and Concubine Rong, the slave understands that doing so will hurt the four princesses, but Mei Xiang has no choice.

Mei Xiang is grateful to God that she can meet people like the four princesses and the concubine Jin who treat slaves and maids really well.

If it wasn't for the favor of Concubine Jin, how could there be a slave now, the slave is a person who admits death, who is good to the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid are good to whom, although I don't understand any big truth, but I have read some books since I was a child, so I understand the meaning of the four words of Zhi'en Tubao. As soon as Concubine Jin left, she took away the people who were good to slaves and maids in this world, and later the slaves and maids were assigned to Rongyue Palace from Jinyun Palace.

At this point, Mei Xiang deeply understood that the world was hot and cold, and the sisters who had a good relationship in the past no longer interacted, and when the four princesses were in distress in Mei Xiang, the slaves and maids knew that they could not repay themselves. But how could Concubine Rong give up, if she caused any trouble to the fourth princess and the fourth master because of me, it was not what the slave and maid were willing to see. Only the slave maid stayed in Rongyue Palace, and Concubine Rong would not target the four princesses on this matter.

The slave maid knew about this incident, although Concubine Rong didn't say anything, but she must be somewhat dissatisfied with the four princesses' practices, this matter was caused by the slave maid, and only death could eliminate the anger in Concubine Rong's heart. In this way, the slave can also go to accompany the mother.

Plum fragrance

After reading this letter, I realized that Mei Xiang committed suicide and was not committed by others.

I sighed softly, a slave still has such a temperament, for others, not to be reluctant, rather die than live alone.

How many such women are there in the palace, or do they still exist?

Yes, I don't know the answer, my heart is always full of contradictions, both hope and dishope, I don't like to see dead people in front of me, obviously a good person, maybe, today, maybe, tomorrow, they may leave me. I don't want anything like that to happen and I don't want to.

Leaving from Mei Xiang's residence, my heart is heavy, I am a good person, I just left, how can my mood be calm?

On the way, people who didn't want to see it happened to meet them like this.

"Bingxi has seen Concubine Rong!"

"Slave maid to the mother, please say!"

Qianping and I each saluted and said goodbye.

"The fourth princess has been coming to the palace recently?" Concubine Rong said casually, a seemingly casual sentence, but there was indeed something in the words.

I replied with a smile: "Yes, I lost something in Jinyun Hall when I came to the palace last time, and it happened that the fourth master came to the palace to have something, so I came with him to see if I might find it." "I had an idea and casually made up a reason.

"Oh? The fourth prince also came to the palace? Concubine Rong asked.

I said, "Yes, the fourth master said that he had something to find his father." ”

"I see." Concubine Rong muttered to herself in a low voice, and suddenly she looked at me and continued: "I don't know if Bingxi has ever heard of it, a few days ago, a slave named Mei Xiang fell in love with the river and died, a good person, why can't you think about it?" ”

Concubine Rong said like a nobody.

I scolded secretly in my heart, if it weren't for you, why would Mei Xiang commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, after all, it was not forced by you, why did you act here and pretend.

"Yes, how could a person who is valued by Niangniang in the palace commit suicide by throwing himself into the river in a good manner, you can only blame her for being blessed." I said, this is specially said to Concubine Rong.

If everything is fine, how could Mei Xiang think of suicide, besides, this good year, when she thinks of this, her heart is not happy.

Obviously, her face was not very good-looking, and when she was about to speak, Chenxi appeared.

"Chen Xi has seen Concubine Rong."

"Come on, please!"

Concubine Rong waved her hand and motioned for him to get up.

Then Chen Xi came to his side, looked at Concubine Rong and said, "Bingxi has been staying in the palace, and she hasn't taught her some details to pay attention to in the palace, so she didn't trouble you, right?" ”

"The fourth prince laughed, how could Bingxi Zhishu Dali cause trouble to this palace, it's too late for this palace to like it!" Concubine Rong said.

Chenxi glanced at me and just smiled lightly.

Knowledgeable? In his eyes, I guess I can't be knowledgeable, maybe I can be called a troublemaker. No, this time it caused him trouble again, but this time the trouble was not small, when I thought of Mei Xiang's death, I felt very uncomfortable, I didn't expect that human life could end so easily. Why do people have to fight back and forth, and what can they get in the end after fighting for most of their lives, is it just to satisfy the pleasure in their hearts?

If I had known that it was such an ending, I wouldn't have interfered in this matter if I said anything, but it would have helped me a disservice, maybe Mei Xiang is still alive, no matter how well she lives, at least she is still alive, isn't it.

"Concubine Rong, if there is nothing wrong, Chen Xi will take Bingxi back." Chenxi said.

I stood silent, perhaps he saw that I was in a bad mood and wanted to take me away.

"Go, the palace will not keep you, and you will often come to the palace to walk around when you have time." At the end, Concubine Rong said to Chenxi and me.
