Chapter 68: The Old Love Disappears

Qi Zheng stared at the bracelet, a name that had not been mentioned for a long time came to mind, took the letter and the jade bracelet in the little eunuch's hand, tore open the envelope and pulled out the thin letter paper inside, stared intently at the unneat words on it, tears suddenly welled up, slid down his cheeks, and his hands trembled.

"What's wrong?" Emperor Yuan noticed Qi Zheng's strange expression and asked.

After reading the letter, Qi Zheng was confused with tears, his hand suddenly let go, and a clear sound came, the jade bracelet fell to the ground and shattered in half, the letter paper flew down, came back to his senses, pushed away the little eunuch and ran out of the door.

"Sister, where are you going?" Wen Yue said urgently.

Emperor Yuan stood up, picked up the broken jade on the ground, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, his brows were deeply locked, and he asked, "This jade bracelet seems to be a little familiar." ”

Wen Yue walked to Emperor Yuan's side, picked up another piece of broken jade, thought for a moment, and then wondered: "This jade bracelet is exactly the same as the one my sister gave to the concubine, could it be that something happened to Yunqing?" ”

When Emperor Yuan heard this, he was puzzled, and asked again: "Who is Yunqing?" ”

Wen Yue quietly looked at the jade bracelet in her hand, and said slowly: "Yunqing is a show girl who entered the palace with her concubine and sister, because she made a mistake, she was punished to go to the Huanshang Bureau, before the election, the concubine and her sister went to visit Yunqing, and found that her life was not good, so my sister left the bracelet on her hand to Yunqing and asked her to dot up and down." ”

Emperor Yuan looked at the little eunuch on the side: "Who did you say wrote this letter?" ”

The little eunuch replied: "Back to the emperor, it was left by a palace maid who committed suicide in the Huanshang Bureau, and the palace maid's name is Shen Yunqing. ”

Hearing what the little eunuch said, Wen Yue was shocked: "What, Yunqing committed suicide?" When was this. ”

The little eunuch said: "Back to the concubine, it was just now, and the slave didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly sent it." ”

"It turns out that my sister went to the Huanshang Bureau." Wen Yue looked out the door.

"You can go and have a look, I'm worried about Qizheng, she's too ......." Emperor Yuan said softly.

Wen Yue nodded, owed slightly, and led the palace maid Yan'er out of the Zhaoxuan Palace and hurriedly walked towards the Huanshang Bureau.

Qizheng kept running towards the Huanshang Bureau, crying in her heart, 'Yunqing, why are you so stupid, are you blaming us for forgetting you?' Do you want to feel guilty for the rest of your life? How can you, how can you'

The door of the Huanshang Bureau gradually appeared in front of him, Qizheng slowed down, as if he felt that every step was so difficult, and slowly paced to the door of the Huanshang Bureau, stretched out his hand to support the wall, and looked inside, a group of people gathered in the courtyard, talking to each other. Qi Zheng stepped over the door, the surrounding people saw Qi Zheng walk in, and hurriedly spread out the blessing body, Qi Zheng saw Shen Yunqing lying on the ground from the crack in the person, and staggered over, messy hair, purple face, a white silk is still wrapped around the neck, peaceful as if asleep, Qi Zheng knelt on the ground, there were no tears in her eyes, and shouted softly: "Qing'er, sister is here, you open your eyes and see, sister is here to take you out, take you out of this place, sister is no longer the mermaid meat is always there, sister is Rong Hua, My sister can save you out, why are you so stupid, why did you just leave. ”

"What are you all doing here, don't get her away, it's not bad to be here." One of them snapped.

"Aunt Sun." The palace maids shouted.

A slightly older palace man came over and said coldly: "What's the matter, one by one is stunned here." Pushing away the crowd, he saw the Qi Zheng beside Yun Qing, and exclaimed, "Concubine, why are you here." ”

"This concubine asks you what the hell is going on." Qi Zheng didn't look back and said lightly.

"Back to the concubine, the slave maid is also very sad when this happens, but there is no way, but the people in this Huanshang Bureau always suffer more than other palace maids, I don't know how much, this girl can't stand it, and she can't think about it for a while, so she ......." Aunt Sun said helplessly.

Qizheng stood up, slowly walked to the wooden table next to him and sat down, put his hand on the table, and asked with heavy eyes, "Who are you?" ”

"The concubine master, the slave and maid Sun Lian, is the head of the Huanshang Bureau." Sun Lian said respectfully.

Qi Zheng smiled bitterly and mocked: "A human life, your aunt in charge of the matter is sad and can't help it, if this concubine doesn't come today, my aunt probably won't be sad, she won't be helpless, everything is normal, this concubine is right?" ”

Sun Lian's expression was a little flustered, and she hurriedly said, "This ...... This, where the concubine master is talking about this, they are all people under the slave and maid, even if the concubine master does not come, the slave and maid are treated the same. ”

"Okay, then the concubine will believe to my aunt for the time being, and my aunt will tell me how she plans to deal with this matter, and my concubine also wants to hear it." Qi Zheng said expressionlessly.

"Let me go, you let me go." A voice struggled, and then a figure knelt in front of Qizheng suddenly, pulling the corner of Qizheng's skirt and begging with tears in her eyes: "Ask the concubine master to save the slave and maid out, if the slave and maid don't leave this ghost place, they will be tortured to death by Shen Yunqing." ”

Qizheng was suddenly startled, and said, "You...... What do you say, tortured to death, Yunqing was tortured to death by them? After speaking, he looked at Sun Lian coldly

Sun Lian was shocked, and said in a panic: "Come on, hurry, drag this crazy girl down, don't let her say crazy things in front of the concubine." ”

The two palace maids came forward to pull him away, but Qizheng hurriedly stopped: "Slow down, let her finish speaking." ”

"Concubine, she's just a crazy girl, I'm afraid I'll disturb the concubine, it's better to lock her up." Sun Lian explained.

"Aunt Sun, before this girl finishes speaking, you'd better not say a word, otherwise, the next seven-foot white silk will be prepared for you." Qi Zheng said coldly, his tone getting heavier.

Sun Lian panicked: "Yes, yes, the slave doesn't dare." ”

"Alright, you can say it." Qi Zheng looked at the palace maid kneeling on the ground.

He raised his head excitedly and said, "Concubine, Master." Suddenly, he looked dazed, and looked at Qizheng for a long time.

Qi Zheng looked at his face, thought for a while, and said in surprise: "Are you, Xirui?" ”

"Qizheng, no, concubine, save the slave and maid." Du Xirui begged.

Qi Zheng frowned: "Get up and speak." ”

Du Xirui stood up slowly, wiped away her tears, and said slowly: "It's Aunt Sun, Aunt Sun coveted Yunqing's jade bracelet, and she refused to give it to Yunqing many times, so Aunt Sun tortured her, so she couldn't stand the torture and committed suicide." ”

"The slave and the maid are wronged, how can the slave and the maid covet a jade bracelet?" Sun Lian hurriedly knelt down and argued.

"What you say is true? If you tell this concubine, aren't you afraid of Aunt Sun's revenge? Qi Zheng wondered.

Du Xirui glanced at Sun Lian: "Aunt Sun has accepted the benefits of Concubine Yun, so naturally she will not let the slave and maid live, the slave and maid can live until now because the slave and maid have a big life, but Yun Qing is dead, and it is difficult to guarantee that the next one will not be a slave and maid, so the slave and maid have the courage to explain the truth to the concubine master and beg the concubine master to save the slave and maid." After saying that, he knelt on the ground again and kept kowtowing.

Wen Yue slowly walked in the door and asked, "Sister, what's wrong." ”

Qizheng glanced at Wen Yue, turned her eyes back and stared at Sun Lian with a blank eye: "Aunt Sun, what she said is the truth?" ”

Sun Lian looked innocent and said: "Back to the concubine master, this girl is a bunch of nonsense, if the slave and maid covet the jade bracelet in Yunqing, the jade bracelet must be here in the slave and maid after her death, there is no such thing, if the concubine master does not believe it, you can search the slave maid's room." ”

"You are talking nonsense, you want to take away the jade bracelet on Yunqing's table, but you were discovered by Xiao Jizi, and you failed to succeed." Du Xirui retorted.

"Who are you talking about Yoshiko? Why did Concubine Yun want to buy Aunt Sun to harm you. Qi Zheng asked with a frown.

"Back to the concubine master, the slave is Xiao Jizi, the slave guarantees with his life, what Miss Xirui said is true." The little eunuch ran from behind Wen Yue and knelt in front of Qi Zheng.

Qi Zheng looked at him, it turned out to be the little eunuch who had just delivered the letter, and asked, "This concubine asks you, why did you risk your life to hand over the letter and jade bracelet to the palace, and why did you help Du Xirui identify Aunt Sun." ”

"Back to the concubine master, the slave likes Miss Yunqing, Miss Yunqing promised the slave, and when she goes out of the Huanshang Bureau, she will eat with the slave, but she didn't expect that she was tortured to death by Aunt Sun like this, and the slave will seek justice for Yunqing even if she gives up this cheap life."
