Huangqi is far away from Kyoto, and then it is the funeral of the Queen Mother.

The whole country mourns.

The palace is a miserable white, and the death of the Queen Mother has always been obscure. It is only said that he has been ill for a long time and has not been treated, and once he is mourned, there is no other excuse.

When the Empress Dowager Yun'an entered the coffin, Ning Ge wore a plain white palace dress from the Changge Palace to Cining Palace, and met the queen Huang Jiu who came in from the fork in the road, Huang Jiu sat on the rickety step with his forehead, the top of his head hung with a curling white yarn, his hair was tied back in a bun, and a white jade peony hairpin was inserted obliquely on his temples, hanging a heavy white beaded tassel below the chin, lining the corners of the bent lips more and more cold.

Ning Ge paused to make way for Huang Jiu's sedan chair, but Huang Jiu's afterglow just settled on Ning Ge, no longer generous when they met before, but it was a kind of resentment that was difficult to let go.

like a knife stabbed at a man. It's just that the feeling is fleeting, and the fast Ning Song has disappeared before he has time to raise his head.

"Stop." Huang Jiu suddenly said coldly.

Changxiao glanced at Ning Ge who was standing on the side, and hurriedly ordered the sedan chair man who was carrying the sedan chair to put down the sedan chair, and slowly walked to Ning Ge with Huang Jiu in his arms.

Ning Ge bowed down and saluted: "The queen mother is blessed." ”

Huang Jiu suddenly laughed: "Speaking of ten thousand blessings, where is there such a good blessing as my sister who is blessed by misfortune." ”

Ning Ge frowned: "The concubine is stupid, I don't know what the mother is talking about." ”

Huang Jiu raised his eyelids, looked at the tight pure gold armor on his fingers, and said in a low voice, "My sister is satisfied with the gift from Huang Sanfu?" ”

The gift on the Huang Sanfu is not talking about Gu Lun, who has gone crazy? But Gu Lun is already crazy, is she still unwilling to let her go?

From her going to Xiliang to Gu Lun's entry into the Huang Sanfu, it was all in their calculations. In the final analysis, Princess Gulun has become the scapegoat for the death of the Phoenix and the bearer of the hatred of the Phoenix family.

It's just that people have been replaced, and after being tortured, will they still be used as bargaining chips?

A burst of anger surged in Ning Ge's heart, and he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Huang Jiu. She had to rely on the pain of pinching her palm to avoid going berserk, and if she could, she really wanted to slap Huang Jiu who was smiling openly in front of her.

It's just that Huang Jiu's face is a little haggard that is difficult to hide, but he has already lost weight in a few days, and the exhaustion behind the exquisite makeup can't be hidden, and even the corners of his eyes that are used to smiling warmly have a few wrinkles, not to mention the bright red bloodshot in his eyes.

Huang Jiu held the surface posture and wanted to watch Ning Ge feel painful, and wanted to see Gu Lun live rather than die.

But she didn't want to get what she wanted.

Ning Ge's mood suddenly calmed down, and he calmly curved the corners of his mouth and smiled at Huang Jiu: "Thanks to Niangniang's blessing, everything has been settled." Although Yuqing went, she finally stayed at the end of the world with her beloved, right? ”

Huang Jiu's complexion changed, and he was no longer calm and calm before, and said coldly: "Ning Ge, don't think that you have won." This account will definitely be recovered. ”

Huang Jiu could no longer hide his true heart, and his previous generous appearance instantly collapsed. Ning Ge watched it happily, and simply said: "Niangniang is the world, this harem and the emperor should be yours, naturally you are the winner." Isn't it? ”

Huang Jiu took a step forward and said word by word: "Ning Ge, you wait and see, I will tell you not to live, you can't die." ”

Ning Ge raised her eyebrows: "If that's the case, I can still take care of your unborn nephew in place of Niangniang when I go to Huangquan, thank you for Niangniang's grace." ”

She looked at the constant change of expression on Huang Jiu's face, and a refreshing sense of satisfaction suddenly rose in her heart, she also wanted to mention the death of the Queen Mother, but she had no evidence in her hand.

The only medicine jar that had been exchanged for Princess Gulun.

The fox will always have to show its tail one day. Ningge firmly believes.

"You ......" Huang Jiu choked, Feng was about to have a storm in his eyes, the armor clicked and broke in the palm of his hand, and the long smile next to him was also a chuckle in his heart, and he hurriedly said: "Niangniang, it's almost time, we should go." ”

Huang Jiu took a deep breath and glanced at Ning Ge coldly, "Sister should remember one sentence, so that Huiji will be hurt." ”

Ning Ge bent his knees: "Thank you Niangniang for your teachings, the concubine should be kept in mind." ”

Sending Huang Jiu away, Ning Ge stood in place for a long time without moving, and called the moon and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, we should also go, the emperor is still waiting for us." ”

Ning Ge nodded and walked away.

The two of them walked for a long time and did not arrive at Cining Palace, but they heard a sudden cry in the palace, and the voice was miserable, like a ghost crying in the middle of the night.

This is also a common thing, Fengling is popular in mourning, and now that the queen mother is dead, the daughters-in-law of the harem naturally have to fulfill the obligation of crying and mourning. It's just that Ning Ge listened to such a half-true cry, but it was very harsh, and she frowned and refused to stretch.

There is no doubt that the queen mother died unjustly, and she called the moon and said: "Niangniang, there is something that the slave and maid don't understand. ”

Ning Ge paused and asked, "Do you want to ask the cause of the Queen Mother's death?" ”

Summoning the moon was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"The queen mother took poison and wronged the queen's mother, but she may not have made a heavy hand, and she would not put herself to death at all. It's just that why is the Queen Mother gone like this? ”

Ning Ge narrowed her eyes. After a long time, he said: "You are not allowed to say such things in the future." ”

It was because Huang Jiu was suspected at first, and it was later found out that Huang Jiu was innocent after the Queen Mother drugged herself. So that the death of the Queen Mother was suppressed alive, and the most uncomfortable thing at this time should be Feng Yufei.

Thinking of this, Ning Ge quickened his pace and entered Cining Palace, and saw Feng Yufei and Huang Jiu standing side by side in front of the coffin prepared for the Empress Dowager Yun'an from a distance, and the whole courtyard behind him was full of mourning and crying women.

Ning Ge walked to the middle of the crowd closest to Feng Yufei and knelt down, just as he met Qi He, who was kneeling in the lead.

Qi He's eyes were red, and his whole face was bloated, and he was drumming high as if he had blown in. Seeing Ning Ge coming, he didn't move, just glanced at Ning Ge with those unsparked eyes.

"You're here."

Ning Ge nodded, and looked at Feng Yufei and Huang Jiu on the stage with his back straight.

Qi He suddenly sneered and shook his body: "I don't have a queen mother anymore." After a pause, Qi He licked his lips that were a little dry, and a smile like Chunyang bloomed: "Brother Huang finally has one less burden. There is no need to show mercy to the Huang family because the queen mother is a member of the Huang family. You say, is it my turn next? ”

Ning Ge frowned, grabbed Qi He's cold finger and said, "No." ”

Qihe looked at Ning Ge in confusion and asked, "No?" ”

"What about Yuqing? And then the queen mother, and then not to me to whom? However, it is good to die like this. At least she will finally stop making things difficult for her second brother and will not be used. You say, don't you? ”

Qihe's words seemed to be saying to others, and it seemed to be saying to himself. Ning Ge could only boil the word "yes" stubbornly.

Qi He couldn't cry, the cry was mixed in the mourning army and was instantly drowned, Ning Ge stretched out her hand to stop her, but her hand was in the air and she finally grabbed it and took it back.

It wasn't her mother who died, how could she know how Qi He felt in her heart at this time?

Her relatives are only the Empress Dowager Yun'an and Feng Yufei, and now Feng Yufei seems to have seen through the death of the Empress Dowager for a long time, and the Empress Dowager Yun'an has become an ancient, what else can Qi He expect?

Ning Ge forced herself to look away from Qi He, and looked at the three women in pure white palace clothes standing with their hands on the side of the stage, with such a posture, it was obvious that the identity of the three women was higher than the concubine kneeling below, and it seemed to be lower than the queen mother who had been in the coffin.

Among the three, the first one stood in the middle, with a calm face, no makeup and no eyebrows, and extremely deep facial features, and the shadow cast by the slender eyelashes on the face could still be seen from a distance.

The woman on the left has beautiful eyes and delicate makeup, but there is no sense of sadness. I couldn't help wiping the corners of my eyes with a water-red ropa in my hand, which made people misunderstand that the person was in tears.

Far away, you can vaguely see the delicate embroidery on the Naropa, clinging to a purple vine, and the branches are manmanly wrapped around the entire edge of the Ropa.

Ning Ge didn't know why he fixed his eyes on the woman on the left alone, and he was suspicious of rebirth, but suddenly saw the woman standing in the middle looking at the coffin raised her head, looked sideways in the direction of Ning Ge, and happened to crash into Ning Ge's inquiring eyes. Ning Ge hurriedly wanted to dodge, but unexpectedly, the woman suddenly burst into a smile, nodded slightly at Ning Ge, and quickly restrained the expression on her face and lowered her head.

It's really strange, Ning Ge and the woman standing in the middle seem to be old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time but still haven't seen each other.

The woman standing on the right is a little older, and she looks like a kind face. Even with a deliberately cold face, she looked like she was smiling.

Ning Ge had never seen them, so she looked at the woman standing in the middle a few more times in confusion.

Zhao Yue was kneeling beside Ning Ge, and seeing Ning Ge's gaze, she hurriedly grabbed Ning Ge's hand and whispered: "Those are the three concubines in the palace, these three concubines are three of the four concubines who were called virtuous and virtuous when the first emperor was alive, the middle is the good concubine, the left is the concubine, and the side is the concubine De. And the queen mother was a virtuous concubine back then, if it wasn't for the emperor's accession to the throne, it should be a virtuous concubine. The concubines have lived in the deep palace for a long time since the first emperor went and have not shown up for many years, and it is normal for the mothers not to see them. ”

Ning Ge raised her eyebrows, and muttered in her mouth: "Concubine Liang? ”

Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes." But Niangniang is still more careful, Concubine Naliang is not easy to mess with. ”

Ning Ge leaned down and whispered, "Oh? More difficult to deal with than the Queen Mother? ”
