Concubine Wei Xian committed suicide in the prison.

There are no real secrets in the palace. Although Empress Pei had a strict order to seal her mouth, the corpse of Concubine Wei Xian Zheng Jieyu was carried out of the prison and put into the coffin. The coffin was placed in the empty room next to the mourning hall, waiting to be buried together on the day of Emperor Xuanhe's burial. As long as the palace concubines are not blind or deaf, they all know about this matter.

Gu Shufei went to the house with a pale face.

Concubine Wei Xian in the coffin had a dead face, and her body was stiff and cold.

Gu Shufei's nose was sour, and tears flowed down.

In her mind, Concubine Wei Xian's unwilling and angry cries kept echoing.

I shouldn't have said anything! I don't deserve any thoughts or grievances! I should be grateful to Dade for dying gratefully......

Concubine Wei Xian was unwilling in the end, and fought desperately in despair to assassinate Empress Pei. In the end, he lost the lives of the five princes in vain. She herself was still dead.

"Rest in peace!" Concubine Gu Shu choked up and whispered: "Don't enter the palace as a concubine in the next life." ”

In the next life, I hope you marry a good husband, pity you, and treat you as a treasure.

Concubine Gu Shu cried while holding Concubine Wei Xian's coffin, and went to see Zheng Jieyu for the last time.

Zheng Jieyu also committed suicide. She failed to kill Queen Pei, so she stabbed her throat with that sharp silver hairpin. At this time, the corpse was already stiff, and the blood hole in the throat made the heartstrings tremble.

Concubine Gu Shu didn't cry anymore, and after a silent sigh, she ordered the guards guarding the coffin to close the coffin.

Then, Gu Shufei turned around and left.

Her back was gloomy and sad under the light of the candlelight.

……

Gu Shufei was sad in her heart, lying on the bed tossing and turning.

On the fourth watch, the two palace goddesses came to deliver a letter in a panic: "Concubine Qi, something is wrong." Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu hanged themselves in a room. ”

Gu Shufei buzzed in her head.

She quickly turned over and got off the bed, and the moment her feet landed on the ground, she suddenly became dizzy and almost fell.

The palace maid beside her hurriedly held her arm: "Lady Niangniang!" ”

Gu Shufei heard her blood gurgling, and she closed her eyes forcefully. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, and a pair of bloodshot eyes looked at the palace maid who came to deliver the letter: "What the hell is going on?" ”

The two palace maids sobbed and choked.

Wang Zhaorong is the biological mother of the Seventh Prince, and Zhao Jieyu is the biological mother of the Eighth Prince. These two palace concubines are the daughters of military generals, and they have been in the palace for twelve or thirteen years.

Emperor Xuanhe didn't pay attention to beauty, he used to favor the Zheng family alone, and all his thoughts have been on Queen Pei in the past few years. Therefore, although Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu gave birth to a prince, they are not eye-catching in the harem, and their sense of existence is thin.

Sadly, the most striking time in the lives of the two of them was the moment when Emperor Xuanhe ordered them to be buried.

Zheng Jieyu and Concubine Wei Xian were unwilling to die and joined forces to assassinate the queen, while several princes conspired to assassinate the prince. Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu did not have such guts.

Like the walking dead, the two knelt and kept watch every day, waiting for the day of their burial.

Concubine Wei Xian committed suicide in prison, and Zheng Jieyu's bodies were put into the coffin. Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu also lost the courage to live, the two of them got together, cried for half the night, each left a letter, and then hanged themselves with a three-foot white silk.

“…… When the slave found out, Zhaorong Niangniang was already angry and died. A palace maid wept.

Another palace maid also cried: "Jieyu Niangniang and Zhaorong Niangniang committed suicide together." He also left behind a masterpiece. The slaves and maids came to deliver letters to the concubines, and some people went to deliver letters to the queen. The last letter was also sent to the queen's mother. ”

The fact that there were people dying one after another in the palace was really not a good sign.

Gu Shufei's heart seemed to be pressed by a thousand catties of boulders, and it was so heavy that it was suffocating.

She was silent for a moment before she whispered, "I'll go see the queen mother." ”

……

Empress Pei was awakened one step earlier than Concubine Gu.

When Concubine Gu Shu came to ask for a meeting, Empress Pei had already recovered from the shock, and her expression was quite calm: "Let her in!" ”

In the past few days, Concubine Gu Shu was shocked by the bad news again and again, and her face was bleak at this time, and she was extremely pale under the candlelight. She bowed first and said softly: "Queen Mother, how should Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu's aftermath be handled?" ”

People are dead, there is nothing to say.

What matters now is what happens to the aftermath. Also, after dawn, how do you explain this to everyone?

Empress Pei calmed down and said slowly: "Prepare a coffin for the two of them!" ”

In the emperor's will, the four of them were martyred. Concubine Wei Xian Zheng Jieyu was resentful and assassinated the palace. The fate of the death is also self-inflicted. Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu, thinking of the emperor's favor to them, calmly went to death. This loyalty is touching. ”

"Put the coffins of the two of them in a separate room. Passing on the palace oracle, let the seven princes and eight princes go to kowtow to their biological mothers together, and keep the spirit for a day and a night, which can be regarded as the whole mother-son relationship in their lives. ”

When Queen Pei said this, it was also regarded as giving Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu the grief after their deaths. It is also showing everyone that he will treat the seven princes and the eight princes well.

Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu took the initiative to die, in order to protect their son. In this way, it is considered a well-deserved death.

Concubine Gu Shu complied, and when she looked up, her eyes swept over the table beside Empress Pei.

Two thin sheets of paper were placed on the table.

This is Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu's last letter.

Empress Pei looked at Concubine Gu Shu: "This is Wang Zhaorong Zhao Jieyu's fateful book, if you want to read it, you might as well come and take a look." ”

Concubine Gu Shu restrained her mind and responded respectfully: "Since this letter is written to the queen's mother, how can the concubine save more?" The day is almost dawn, and the concubine will go to arrange the funeral of Wang Zhaorong and Zhao Jieyu. ”

Concubine Gu Shu has been cautious for many years, but she is deeply trusted by Queen Pei, and she refuses to exceed the rules.

Empress Pei said lightly: "You don't want to see it." The two of them took the initiative to beg for death, but they were shocked by the matter of the eldest prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth prince. Therefore, he will take the initiative to die, so that the palace can relieve his suspicions, so as to protect the seven princes and eight princes. ”

"This piece of motherly heart, this palace will definitely fulfill them."

Gu Shufei's heart was filled with a chill.

The gentle and soft-hearted Empress Pei she was familiar with was gone. The queen mother in front of her, hearing the news of the death of the two palace concubines, did not even move her brows, and was almost cold.

From this day on, she has to be more cautious and careful.

Concubine Gu Shu respectfully retired again.

Empress Pei nodded slightly.

The awe and horror in Gu Shufei's eyes, she clearly saw it in her eyes, but there was no turmoil in her heart.

She can now slowly understand and experience Emperor Xuanhe's "arbitrariness", "moodiness" and "unpredictable power" during his lifetime. In his position, he wants to deter everyone, and he must be soft-hearted.
