"Niangniang, there is news from Tuoba Mansion, saying that the old gentleman ...... He went west. ”

Ruo'er was also shocked when she received the news early in the morning, but thinking that Su Yang had asked her before, she didn't dare to delay, so she choked up and knelt on the ground to report.

Su Yang couldn't help but be taken aback when she heard the news, the old gentleman had told her about it in a dream, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly, and she wasn't even ready yet.

"Ruo'er, did Lord Tuoba tell me how the old gentleman left?"

"The lord only said that the old gentleman was gone, and did not say any reason. ”

Ruo'er's eyes were swollen like a peach pit, and her voice was also dyed with crying, Su Yang thought that Tuoba Hu didn't say the cause of death, I was afraid that there was something strange in it, so he asked Ruo'er to wait for a change of clothes and went straight to the imperial study.

Outside the Imperial Study.

"Niangniang, the emperor is in the morning court at this time, if you have anything to do, you should come back later. ”

The little eunuch looked at Su Yang with a look of urgency, although he didn't dare to offend her, but there was no way, and he respectfully explained the reason to her.

"The palace is waiting for the emperor here. ”

Thinking of the old gentleman's dying entrustment, Su Yang was very anxious, and seeing that time passed little by little, she hurriedly paced in place.

"Niangniang, don't worry, why don't you go and send a message to the outside of the palace first, what do you think?"

Ruo'er saw that Su Yang was so nervous, so he opened his mouth and proposed.

"Then you go quickly! Tell Lord Tuoba that you must guard the old man's body. ”

"Yes!"

Ruo'er got the order and trotted back to the Moon Shadow Palace.

After about half an hour, Murong Jue finally came back from the next court, and when he saw Su Yang standing outside the imperial study, he couldn't help frowning slightly and stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Your Majesty, the concubines came this time to ask the emperor to let the concubines out of the palace. ”

Su Yang was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and he couldn't care about any decency for a while, so he knelt down and pleaded directly in front of Murong Jue.

"Out of the palace? The first time it was for a family banquet, the last time it was for a state banquet, and what is it for this time?"

Murong thought that she was going to leave the palace once every three days, and couldn't help but feel puzzled, and couldn't help but start to wonder if she had something good to do outside the palace.

"When the concubine brought back the wind and the tiger last time, she foresaw a master outside the world, and he entrusted the concubine to handle the affairs of his death before, and today he drove the crane to the west, and the concubine must keep his promise. ”

"You are true to your word. ”

Murong Jue looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, his eyes gradually narrowed, and his emotions were hidden in his eyes, which was unpredictable.

"The Emperor's ......"

Su Yang glanced up at the man, but Murong Jue deliberately twisted his head to the side, not looking at her pitiful eyes, and waved his hand: "Go, go and go back quickly." ”

"Yes, thank you to the emperor, concubine!"

Su Yang said, hurriedly stood up, and happened to meet Ruo'er who came back from the Moon Shadow Palace, the two went back to change into civilian clothes, and hurriedly walked out of the palace gate and went straight to Tuoba Hu's house.

At the door of Tuoba Hu's house, the family had already blocked the door and did not let anyone in, and when they saw Su Yang and Ruo'er coming, they suddenly showed a fierce and vicious expression, and said: "The head of the family has ordered, no one else is allowed to enter!"

"This is Imperial Concubine Ye, please let this eldest brother go!"

Ruo'er said, took off the waist card from his waist and put it in front of the man's eyes, and the man saw that the person who came was Concubine Ye, so he called the two of them in.

Looking at this battle, Su Yang also sensed that something was wrong, I was afraid that the old gentleman's death was really strange, so he asked Ruo'er to speed up his pace and follow the family to the outside of the old gentleman's permanent residence.

At this time, Tuoba Hu's family, as well as Feng Yi and others were waiting outside the house, and when they saw Su Yang coming, Feng Yi was in a hurry, and he didn't care about any courtesy, so he stepped forward and grabbed her arm and said, "Imperial Princess, go in and take a look, what's going on with my master!"

Su Yang looked at him with bloodshot eyes, and thought that he must be exhausted by the old man's death, so he comforted: "Don't worry, I'll go in." ”

"Imperial Princess, there is something strange in this house, no one can enter, and we also saw a white crane flying away outside this morning, and there was an abnormality in this door, so we thought that something was wrong. ”

Tuoba Hu pulled Su Yang to the side and informed her of the incident.

Su Yang suddenly realized, it turned out that this was the reason why Tuoba Hu did not specify the cause of the old man's death in the letter.

But why the old gentleman drove the crane to the west, why he couldn't even enter his room, this was the most strange thing for her, but since the old gentleman entrusted her with his posthumous affairs before he died, she must do it for the old gentleman.

So, she walked over to the door and pushed it gently, and it opened, without the slightest hint of what they had said about not being able to open it.

"This, what's going on......"

"Master said that the imperial concubine is destined, which is probably what the master said about destined. ”

Tuoba Hu looked at the scene in front of him, and was inevitably a little surprised, but Feng Yi looked surprised.

Everyone planned to follow Su Yang in, but they were stopped by Su Yang.

She entered the house alone, but smelled a faint fragrance, she followed the smell to look for it, but found an incense burner, the spices in it were still burning, it can be seen that before the old gentleman left, he knew that his limit was coming, and expected Su Yang to come back, and prepared incense in advance, so as not to smoke everyone with the stale smell of the corpse.

She walked next to the old gentleman's corpse, only to find that his lips were purple, which was a sign of poisoning, and she couldn't help but be shocked, but what surprised her even more was the suicide note in the old gentleman's hand.

"Girl, when you see this letter, I have passed away, I know the cause of my death, it is someone who is red-eyed, deliberate, you don't need to make a noise, as for going to the Tianshan Mountain, if it is inconvenient for you, call Feng Yi to go, remember, be sure to go to the Tianshan!"

Su Yang read the words on it gently, but she still didn't understand some things, why the old gentleman was so obsessed with letting her go to Tianshan, you know, as a palace concubine, she couldn't leave Beijing easily.

But thinking that the old gentleman had already said that it was okay to ask Feng Yi to do it for her, then she didn't bother with it, and called Tuoba Hu and others to come in and clean up the old gentleman's remains together, but she gave her extra instructions not to let Feng Yi in.

Tuoba Hu was the first to enter, he came to the old gentleman's corpse, and when he saw his purple lips, he understood Su Yang's intentions.

"Mother, this ......"

"Don't let Feng Yi know, if he knows, he will definitely make a mess, so it will be against the old man's wishes. ”

Although Su Yang also wanted to know who the old man died and who killed him, he still wanted to follow the old man's last wish.

"Wechen knows that today's events, Wechen must be tight-lipped. ”
