Chapter 15: The Masked Man

"Lianrong is the maid of Yue Liuli, the cousin of the former imperial concubine Yue Qingli, the surname Yue is the national surname of Liang State, Concubine Li died after giving birth to the eldest prince, in order to maintain the marriage relationship between the two countries, the Empress Dowager Dou of Xue State proposed to marry again."

The man in white said lightly.

"That person, that's my mother?" Qin Zixin said the conjecture in his heart.

I saw the man in white nodding.

"At that time, the Empress Chen of the Xue Kingdom couldn't tolerate it, so she sent someone to secretly approach the maid Lian Rong next to Princess Yue Liuli, and promised Lian Rong to make her the emperor's concubine, and Lian Rong couldn't resist the temptation of power and drugged Princess Yue Liuli, and she followed Queen Chen's instructions Li Daitao stiffened into the palace and became a concubine."

Speaking of this, the man in white looked at Qin Zixin, who had a surprised expression.

"Princess Liuli, whose fate was hanging by a thread, was rescued by Qin Huai, the left prime minister of Xue Guo, who went out of the city to worship her ancestors at that time, and gave birth to your brother Yue Wuchen a year later. However, in the late autumn four years ago, the emperor was critically ill, and Queen Chen took Concubine Lianrong and all the princes to the White Horse Temple to pray for blessings, but she didn't want Queen Chen to push the eldest prince down on the top of the cliff in the White Horse Temple, and this scene happened to be seen by Concubine Shufei Lianrong. ”

When the man in white said this, a dark storm set off in his eyes.

"After returning to the palace, Concubine Shulian Rong wanted to denounce Empress Chen, but the emperor died at this time, Empress Chen's own Xue Lingxiao successfully ascended the throne, and Concubine Shufei Lianrong was also regarded as a woman who accompanied the burial of the emperor because she had no children under her knees, she escaped with regret and grief through self-disfigurement, hid in the cold palace, and then became like this."

The man in white looked at the crazy and stupid lotus Rong, and an inexplicable emotion churned in his chest.

"Brother Wuchen, he also fell from the top of the cliff of the White Horse Temple four years ago, but he climbed up by himself, but the eldest prince was."

Qin Zixin couldn't help but think of the figure he saw Brother Wuchen climbing up from the edge of the cliff that day, obviously his father had given up, but he stubbornly stayed there, as if something was pulling him.

"In the next few days, you may go out, and when the time comes, remember to be careful everywhere, and leave first." With that, the man in white disappeared into the depths of the palace.

"Could it be that he came here to avenge the eldest prince?"

Qin Zixin tore the note in his hand to shreds and threw it into the wild grass, I will go out in the near future, what does this mean? Am I not the daughter of a sinner?

"It's time to eat."

The door of the cold palace, which has not seen any figures for nearly a month, is open today. When the visitors saw Qin Zixin sitting on the stone steps refreshed, they couldn't help but exchange surprised glances with each other.

The maid put a bowl of food on the ground that she couldn't tell what it was, and then locked the door and left.

"Lotus Seed Paste?"

Qin Zixin looked at the lotus rong who shrunk her body behind the grass, it seemed that no one really knew about her existence, presumably the reason why she was able to survive was because of the blessing of the man in white.

"Hehe, eat."

After seeing the visitor leave, Lotus Seed came out from behind the grass, picked up the bowl on the ground and ate it with a big gulp.

"Lotus seed seed, don't eat it indiscriminately." Qin Zixin ran over, but the lotus paste ran while eating, and the bowl was at the bottom after a while.

"Hopefully, it will be fine." Today's sudden delivery of food can't help but make people feel a little strange.

"Heh, heh." Lian Rong suddenly fell to the ground and convulsed.

"Lotus Seed, Lotus Seed!"

Qin Zixin rushed over, only to see black and purple blood constantly coming out of Lotus Rong's mouth.

"How so! Lotus Seed Seed, Lotus Seed Root! Big brother in white, big brother in white, where are you? ”

Qin Zixin hugged Lian Rong's head and shouted, but Lian Rong's eyes had lost their brilliance.

"Gong, princess, I'm sorry, yes", Lianrong said intermittently, closing her eyes.

"Lotus Seed!"

Qin Zixin looked at the lotus rong who did not have a trace of life in her arms, and tears flowed down like broken threads, no one knew that lotus rong was alive in the palace, and the person who came was aimed at herself, but she innocently became a ghost for the dead.

Qin Zixin found a piece of wood and dug a shallow pit in the backyard of the cold palace and buried the lotus paste in it. The man in white didn't appear overnight, thinking that he was stumped by something, it seems that there are still people in this palace who are worried about my life, and it can only be Xue Lingjing or Su Xue'er.

"The Divine Decree has arrived! Qin Zixin, the daughter of the criminal minister, received the order. A group of eunuchs and palace maids came to the cold palace with a bright yellow holy decree.

Qin Zixin sat on the stone steps covered in dirt, she had been sitting here all night, and the dew had wet her skirt.

"You kneel for me!" The two eunuchs pushed Qin Zixin to the ground.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, I remember in the past Qin Huai repeatedly made miraculous feats, the daughter of the criminal minister Qin Huai Qin Zixin was reduced to a commoner, from now on into the silk embroidery bureau to work, Qin this."

The leading eunuch handed the holy decree to Qin Zixin.

"Thank you, Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live."

Qin Zixin stretched out his hand to take the holy decree, it seems that the words of the man in white have come true, as long as he has the opportunity to go out, he will have the opportunity to avenge his father.
