The foreign princess who was about to get the position of imperial concubine suddenly committed suicide, and the palace of Nanshu was panicked. From the first emperor and the concubine to the palace maid and eunuch, almost everyone has heard that several palace people have been severely punished and even lost their lives because they were found to be spreading rumors everywhere, and the rest of those who have said a few words behind their backs are so frightened that they don't dare to take a breath at this time.

Concubine Mei, who has not yet been promoted to "Concubine Mei", is also a bit like sitting on pins and needles. After all, she had a bad impression of that girl, because she had also joined the short-lived team, but she did some dark things, and except for a few close servants, no one knew how ugly she had spoken. What's more, she was the favorite concubine of the first emperor when he was alive, and she was favored to stay in the palace for many years. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, he shouldn't be able to use her as a knife, right?

On that day, it coincided with the second day of Princess Zanguo's return to the west, and in order to show her "calmness" and "innocence", Concubine Mei, who was uneasy, made an appointment with another concubine of the first emperor, Concubine Qing, to chat in her bedroom to relieve her boredom. Concubine Qing is only twenty or six years old this year, half a year younger than Concubine Mei, but in view of this person's gentleness, suppleness and control, she entered the eyes of the first emperor and Concubine Mei early, so she was also retained, and often served as a companion in front of Concubine Mei.

No, the two ladies were chatting endlessly, and the other was chatting with low eyebrows, and someone from the palace came outside the house to report, saying that Princess Mingning's first seven days had not passed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to be the master to put her body on a bamboo raft and send it all the way down the river to the east.

When Concubine Mei heard this, her eyes almost didn't fall out of her sockets.

In her opinion, since the princess of Dongzan has been posthumously named the imperial concubine of their Shu Kingdom, she should enter the imperial tomb on the second day of the first seven days according to the ancestral system, where can she be buried halfway here, and she still finds a bamboo raft and floats away with the bones of the unchilled corpse? !

A few years ago, she regarded herself as the queen's envoy, and Concubine Mei thought that as the future concubine who was closest to the lord of the six palaces once upon a time, it was necessary for her to raise objections to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had not yet ascended the throne.

So, she went-leaving behind Concubine Qing, who seemed to her to be completely useless, led a group of palace people, and went to the East Palace with confidence.

Then, she threw herself into the air, and then went to the imperial study, but unexpectedly there was no one to see.

She naturally didn't expect that this future emperor, who had never liked women and only asked about state affairs, was staying alone in the room where the girl's body was placed at this moment, staring at the sleeping face that was still peaceful with no expression.

Li Wujian was also a little puzzled, why he would come to Xiao Hanyu alone after hearing Scarlet Xue's request, and sit in front of her bed in a trance.

The princess's maid only told him half an hour ago, saying that her master was still thinking about their hometown before leaving, saying that one day even if she died, she would want to be buried in the hometown where she was born and raised.

At that time, Scarlet Xue didn't think too much, and only boldly interrupted her master's words, asking her not to say such unlucky words. It wasn't until the master really passed away suddenly, and when the grieving woman was sorting out his belongings, she found a letter that did not indicate who she had entrusted it to.

In the letter, she understood the master's wishes, and learned that the master had already moved the idea of suicide, and even thought about how to place her bones after her death.

"The slave knows that people are soft-spoken, but she still has the courage to beg His Royal Highness the Prince, for the sake of the princess who has suffered a lot of grievances during her lifetime, please grant her last wish!"

Scarlet pleaded bitterly, and then kowtowed three times to the people in the seat.

Li Wujian pondered for a moment, and finally agreed.

And tomorrow is the day when he places Xiao Hanyu's body on the Qianyun River.

I heard that the great river has a long history, and there are several forks in the way, and if she is lucky, she may be able to return to her homeland along the river.

That's it, although he and her are ruthless and unrighteous, but they are also unjust and innocent - a girl who has never even met a few times, if she really wants, he will fulfill her wish.

As for Dongzan's side, he has his own explanation.

Thinking like this, Li Wujian said his final goodbye to the girl's remains, got up and left her boudoir unhurriedly.

Twelve hours later, the protests of Concubine Mei and several ministers did not shake the man's determination. He even personally led people to the bank of the Qianyun River, picked up the body that had become cold, and walked to the river step by step.

He suddenly found that her body was so light, Rao had been dead for three days, and she had not emitted any peculiar smell, but retained the faint fragrance.

It was precisely this familiar smell that made him feel sad.

This is already the second woman he has personally sent off. He couldn't help but start thinking, was he born to be a lone star?

However, in any case, he has never believed such myths and ghosts.

Leaning down and placing the girl's bones on the huge bamboo raft, the men's ears couldn't stop hearing the suppressed sobs of the women.

He stared at the seemingly unchanged countenance, and after a moment, stood up and untied the rope with his hands. Without the restraint of external forces, the bamboo raft flowed along the water. It didn't take long for it to start moving away from view.

Scarlet Xue finally couldn't hold back the sadness in her heart, raised her head and cried and shouted "Princess-". When the rest of the palace maids who came from Zanguo heard this voice, they quickly couldn't suppress it and cried bitterly.

When the princess was alive, whether she was in her home country or when she went to a foreign country, she treated them very leniently. Therefore, their grief at the moment is completely from the bottom of their hearts, and there is no hint of sympathy.

Yes, such an approachable princess died like this.

Thinking of how unfair fate was, and thinking that they would have nothing to rely on in this foreign land in the future, a group of young girls couldn't help but cry even harder.

However, what they would never have dreamed of was that in the midst of this mournful cry, the girl who made them so sad opened her misty sleepy eyes.

Xiao Hanyu felt that she had finally slept comfortably, what was the matter? Crying woke her up.

couldn't help frowning dissatisfiedly, and as soon as the girl was about to move, she suddenly remembered a very important event.

Wait! Can't move! She can't move! We can't afford to fall short!

That's right, she remembered. Just a few dozen hours ago, I found a suitable time and secretly took the fake death pill. Beforehand, she even did enough drama to make everyone believe in her death and the cause of death!

At this moment, she is afraid that she has already got what she wanted, and was settled on a bamboo raft by the people of Nanshu, and she is following the river of Qianyun River, all the way to the east!

Therefore, she categorically could not act rashly, because the crying from the shore was still in her ears, and she must have only just left the shore.

It's okay...... Thank God! The medicine given by Lan Mozhi can be regarded as reliable, and she didn't ask her to be exposed in advance, let alone hurt her to fake it!

Pressing the ecstasy that erupted from her heart, she was already stiff and tense, and she didn't even breathe lightly.

No hurry, no hurry! As long as she is out of their sight, she is free!
