The deposed imperial concubine (4)
The eunuch who passed the decree outside arrived, and this time it was the personal eunuch Sanfu's father-in-law Xi'er who came back to Emperor Yongming's side, and in general, Emperor Yongming did not appear in person, but just reprimanded the imperial concubine Zhou for not taking care of the royal heirs, so that Liang Mubei died, saying that she was virtuous and virtuous, so she was demoted to her name, from the original imperial concubine to Lin Guifei, just to see the first death of the eldest prince, so she still retained the title of the head of the four concubines.
When the poet and the painter heard this will, they were so angry that they couldn't do it, but Lily knew that there was such a thing, so her expression was very calm. She finished Liang Mubei's funeral, Zhen was beaten to death in front of her relatives, and many people in Xianfu Palace went to watch that day to see the fate of the slave who betrayed the master, and all of them had a chill in their backs. When her body was dragged away, it was already soaked in blood, and the eunuchs in the palace had the courage to wash it with water several times, but the smell of blood still lingered for a long time.
In the plot, Liang Mubei died, Zhou Baihe fell seriously ill, and after he recovered from his illness, he went out to ask Empress Dowager Lu for peace, and began to take revenge on these people in the palace who could not tolerate her son alive.
But this time Baihe did not suffer as much as Zhou Baihe for a long time, because the prince was still young, according to the laws of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he could not do it when he was less than ten years old, so the funeral was simple, and she still appeared in the palace of the Queen Mother on time on the second day.
Yesterday there was such a big event, the imperial concubine first died of her only son, and then was demoted by Emperor Yongming, everyone thought that she was seriously injured this time, and when she didn't hide in the Xianfu Palace for a few days and couldn't get out, no one would have thought that Zhou Guifei would appear on time again in the Queen Mother's Fengming Palace.
When Lily came to Fengming Palace, she was not the first to arrive. When she arrived at the Fengming Hall where the Empress Dowager Lu was, she happened to collide with the virtuous concubine on the chariot. Even if Lily was just demoted yesterday, she is still the highest ranking in the harem of Emperor Yongming.
"My sister is going to mourn." Concubine Xian is sixteen this year, and she happens to be two years younger than Lily, she is fourteen into the harem of Emperor Yongming, who was still the prince at the time. It can be seen that Concubine Xian estimated that she didn't sleep well all night last night, and her eyes were a little red. The white face was powdered, and it couldn't hide the haggard under the delicate face. But because she was born well, this haggard not only did not make her color a little dull, but made her show a little pitiful. She wears a goose-yellow top with a pale green floor-length skirt. Shoulders draped in snow and green. Combing the falling horsetail. She wears a forehead ornament on her forehead, which shows off her beauty and grace.
Concubine Xian originally thought that Lily would definitely hide in Xianfu Palace today, after all, Emperor Yongming had only been on the throne for a year. Knee only the only concubine of the imperial concubine Zhou, no matter who thinks, Liang Mubei should be the person who will be the crown prince of Emperor Yongming in the future, it should be the Zhou family and Zhou Baihe rely on, who expected that Liang Mubei died in an accident yesterday, although many people in the harem said that they were happy, but they all knew in their hearts that Zhou Baihe was stripped of his heart and liver, and he was afraid that it would hurt for a while.
If it has nothing to do with herself, maybe Concubine Xian will still watch a lively scene, she is still young, although there are intrigues, but she is not yet the age of being ruthless and old, so she still has a smile on her face, she can't do many hurtful things, but she originally didn't have a good impression of Zhou Baihe, but as soon as Liang Mubei died yesterday, someone found her handkerchief not far away, which made her also involved in this whirlpool.
Zhou's family, Concubine Xian is also clear in her heart, she will repay her eyes, on the surface she looks peerless, gentle and dignified, but in fact she is also ruthless and can not tolerate the master, she was involved in the death of her son this time, according to Zhou Lily's character, I am afraid that under the loss of her beloved son, she must hate herself to the bone, when she knew the news, she was also shocked and angry, but when her veil was lost, Concubine Xian did not notice it at all, when she returned to the palace yesterday, she had ordered someone to investigate thoroughly, and finally found out the results, An Ru and An Xue, who were in charge of her handkerchief, both said that the handkerchief had been washed a few days ago, and in order to prevent someone from using it as a handkerchief, it was destroyed, and who would have expected that an identical handkerchief would appear now.
After checking and checking, Concubine Xian only found out that the person who washed the handkerchief was a palace man named Gui'er from the Huanyi Bureau, and the clothes that Concubine Xian sent to the Huanyi Bureau were clipped with this handkerchief, and the palace people were clumsy and did not pay attention to the handkerchief, and the silk handkerchief was delicate, and it was broken when rubbed, and it could no longer be used when it was sent back. And when he checked the palace man named Gui'er again, he reported that because Gui'er knew that he had made a mistake, he hanged himself that night.
There are a lot of eunuchs in the palace, and sometimes there are palace people who make mistakes in the Huanyi Bureau who are beaten and blamed, and it is not uncommon for a palace eunuch to die, and Gui'er's body was dragged out when something happened.
By the time Concubine Xian remembered to investigate this matter, Gui'er's body was probably dragged away by wild dogs.
When she got here, Concubine Xian didn't know that she had fallen into someone's trap, so coincidentally, her own handkerchief was ruined if she said it was destroyed, and it was treated so that there was no scum left, and Liang Mubei's side coincidentally appeared next to her 'own' handkerchief, if Concubine Xian thought about herself and thought of herself as Lin Baihe, I am afraid she would not believe that there would be so many coincidences in this.
But she can't blame her palace people for doing something wrong, even if she knew about it that day, I'm afraid she wouldn't think about it so much, maybe she would have let people dispose of the veil, but now there is no evidence, if she said that her veil had been destroyed a long time ago, who would believe it? The most important thing is that she heard yesterday that the emperor will pass through the imperial garden, when she came out of the queen mother's place, she thought that she had not seen the emperor for several days, and there were many people in the harem of Emperor Yongming, although he was stingy and easily refused to give a woman a throne, but there were many beautiful women in the palace, although the color of the virtuous concubine was good, but it was not her turn to see the emperor a few times in a month, she entered Liang He's palace for two years, although she was only sixteen, but in Liang He's eyes, she was already an 'old man', if you want to get the emperor's favor, you have to find another way.
She went to the imperial garden and walked around twice, the emperor didn't see it, but somehow it happened, the abdominal pain was like a twist, when she found a place to solve it, she was afraid that she was unwell, and she was too poor to wait for the emperor, so she ordered the palace maid An Ru to go to the imperial medical department to get some medicine, and when she returned to the Pujia Hall where she was, it was already more than an hour later.
If it was normal times, it would be natural, but at this critical moment, 'her' handkerchief fell not far from Liang Mubei's murder, and he had been out for a long time and did not return to his palace, and now it was really yellow mud falling in the crotch of his pants, and his mouth was full of words and he couldn't tell clearly.
Concubine Xian didn't fall asleep all night last night, knowing that she had fallen into someone's trap, and she went back and smashed a lot of things before she could dissipate her anger, so she wanted to rush to explain and plead with the Queen Mother early this morning. Zhou Baihe is respectful and vicious, provoked such a person, and got involved in such a big event, Concubine Xian used to have a bad temper, and the relationship with the rest of the people in the harem was on their own defenses, and now that she has such a thing, Concubine De and those little sluts are probably waiting to see her jokes, and who will help her? She thought about it, she needed a support in the palace, so she asked people to pack up for herself early in the morning and rushed to the Fengming Palace, but she didn't expect that she had just arrived at the gate of the Fengming Palace, and she met Lily.
Thinking of these, Concubine Xian was also helpless in her heart, she really didn't attack Liang Mubei, she herself had no heirs, so she didn't need to attack Liang Mubei now, but now I don't know if Lily can listen to her, Concubine Xian said hello, she stood aside, staring at Lily out of the corner of her eye.
Because Liang Mubei has just disappeared, Lily is not dressed as flamboyant as the original owner in the past, and the position where Concubine Xian is standing is just seeing Lily's feet stepping on the chariot. After she finished speaking, she listened to Lily let people stop the chariot, the voice was still as gentle and calm as usual, and she couldn't hear the look of joy and anger, but the more so, the more nervous Concubine Xian's heart was, she saw that Bucha stopped, a well-maintained jade hand was on the edge of the chariot, the nails still had the impatiens juice that had not completely faded, the color was delicious and abnormal, the nails were an inch long, the women in the palace were the most beautiful, most of them kept long nails, and even the concubine herself also left, and then put on the tortoiseshell armor, so that it was even more gorgeous.
But when Concubine Xian saw that hand at this moment, she felt a little scared inexplicably, as if her neck was tightly choked, and she couldn't even breathe well.
"Thank you sister for your kindness." Lily looked at Concubine Xian's somewhat pale face for a moment, and reached out to press her sideburns: "My sister came early, and she has already arrived at Fengming Hall at this time." ”
Hearing this, Concubine Xian didn't know if she had something in her heart, so she thought about it more, or did Lily really have something to say, she subconsciously looked up at Lily, but saw a smile on the corner of her mouth, a face with a little powder, the eyes were very bright, just by her glance, Concubine Xian instinctively lowered her head, somehow, seeing her eyes, her heart was a little panicked for no reason.
"Yesterday's ......" Concubine Xian couldn't hold her breath, and mentioned yesterday's incident with one mouth, she originally came to the Queen Mother's Palace today for this matter, and now she met Lily, knowing that she was very likely not to believe it, but Concubine Xian still couldn't stand the wrong, just opened her mouth to explain, but Lily reached out and pulled her, I don't know if it was because of the cold weather, as soon as Concubine Xian was pulled by Lily's hand, she was frozen and shivered two or three times in succession, and she wanted to pull it out, but she didn't know if her strength was too small, or Lily held it too heavy, She couldn't pull it out at all. (To be continued......)
