Chapter 624: Follow-up (2)
The sixth prince was shocked that something was wrong, and turned his head to ask the imperial doctors: "What's wrong with the queen mother?" Yesterday I could open my mouth to speak, why can't I speak today? ”
One of the imperial doctors reported tremblingly: "The queen mother seems to have been stimulated by something yesterday, causing her voice to suddenly lose her voice. Such symptoms are quite rare. Maybe it will be spontaneous after a while. ”
The sixth prince blamed himself in annoyance, and soon his eyes turned red: "Queen Mother, I'm sorry." It's all my fault. The queen mother must get better as soon as possible. ”
He moved his hand in his palm, and then, flipping his hand, took his hand.
The sixth prince looked at the pale mother on the bed.
Queen Pei had tears in her eyes, and she was more happy.
Xiaoliu, it's my mother who is sorry for you. If you're willing to forgive your mother, it's fine.
The mother and son looked at each other silently for a moment. Empress Pei suddenly frowned and moved her mouth. What about Jinrong, why haven't you seen Jinrong today?
The sixth prince avoided the important and light: "Imperial Doctor Cheng had fetal gas yesterday and needs to rest on the couch for a few days." Therefore, she was not able to come to the queen mother today. ”
Queen Pei was puzzled, but she couldn't ask, so she had to put this matter aside for the time being.
The sixth prince opened his mouth and ordered, and soon, a palace maid brought a bowl of rice porridge. The porridge boiled for a long time, and it melted in the mouth. It is most suitable for the sick to eat.
The sixth prince personally fed Queen Pei, and Queen Pei couldn't bear to disobey her son's filial piety, so she opened her mouth and ate it slowly. After eating half a bowl, Queen Pei couldn't eat it.
Empress Pei glanced at the six princes apologetically.
The sixth prince smiled, picked up the handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her mouth for Queen Pei: "Don't force it if you can't eat it." The queen mother rested well, and the sons had time to visit the queen mother again. ”
Empress Pei nodded.
……
Yong'an Hou Mansion.
Mrs. Yong'anhou, who didn't know that the Pei family was already in a catastrophe, was busy preparing for the wedding banquet half a month later.
Although Pei Jue is a concubine, she is still a princess. No matter how reluctant Mrs. Yong'an Hou is, she has to handle the wedding banquet with her heart. From the list of guests to the menu of the day's wedding banquet, there are countless trivialities. asked Mrs. Yong'an Hou one by one, so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground,
Thinking of her husband who had not seen anyone for two days, Mrs. Yong'an Hou was not happy, and scolded hatefully: "If you have the ability, you have been staying in the barracks, and don't come back until the day Pei Jue gets married." ”
It is also common for Yong'an Hou to live in the military camp, and he did not return home for two days, and Mrs. Yong'an Hou was not suspicious.
Pei Ying committed suicide in the second prince's mansion, and the news of her death was sealed and never came out.
The peace together was as usual, and even Mrs. Yong'an Hou had the idea of "it's not bad to go on like this".
Unfortunately, this is destined to be just a luxury.
In the afternoon, Xiaoxi's father-in-law came to the Yong'an Hou Mansion.
Xiaoxi's father-in-law was originally a person from Emperor Xuanhe's side, but later came to the side of the six princes and became the prince's close attendant. can be called the hot celebrity in the palace.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou thought that Xiaoxi's father-in-law was ordered to send a reward, and immediately called Pei Jue over.
The day of marriage is approaching, and Pei Jue's face is also full of joy. There was a smile on his handsome face, and he threw his hand at Xiaoxi's father-in-law: "I don't know what Xiaoxi's father-in-law came here for today?" ”
Xiaoxi's father-in-law sighed before he spoke.
Pei Jue's heart sank, and the shadows suddenly passed through his heart.
I heard Xiaoxi's father-in-law say: "Our family came on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, and what we sent was not good news but bad news." Princess Shouning has died of a violent illness, please mourn Pei Ergongzi! ”
What the?
How could Princess Shouning die suddenly?
Pei Jue's whole body was shocked, and he looked at Xiaoxi's father-in-law in disbelief.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou also buzzed in her mind, and blurted out: "Xiaoxi father-in-law, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." There are still more than ten days to go, and it will be the happy day of the wedding. How could Princess Shouning suddenly fall ill and die? ”
Xiaoxi's father-in-law sighed: "No wonder Mrs. and the second son are so shocked. When our family heard about this in the palace, they were even more surprised than the lady and the second son. ”
"However, our family will never dare to lie about such a big thing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered our family to personally come to Pei's house to deliver the letter. ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou's face turned pale, and her body shook.
Pei Jue's heart was shocked, and he still didn't forget to reach out and help Mrs. Yong'an Hou. Mrs. Yong'an Hou finally didn't make a fool of herself on the spot, and slowly sat down on the chair with Pei Jue's support.
Wrong!
Something must have happened in the palace!
Otherwise, how could the good Princess Shouning die?
Wait, Yong'an Hou hasn't returned home for two days, shouldn't something happen too!
Mrs. Yong'an Hou's heart was surging, her temples jumped suddenly, and she opened her mouth to ask: "Xiaoxi father-in-law, I take the liberty to ask." Hou Ye hasn't returned home for two days, but he is in the palace? ”
Xiaoxi's father-in-law replied without changing his face: "Our family doesn't know about this." ”
Without waiting for Mrs. Yong'an Hou to ask again, Xiaoxi's father-in-law bowed and turned to leave.
……
Mrs. Yong'an Hou sat stunned for a long time.
Pei Jue stood aside in a daze.
I can't tell who is more depressed and complicated.
"Pei Jue," Mrs. Yong'an Hou suddenly opened her mouth: "Go and let someone prepare the car, I will go and wait for Azhang to return home, and ask for a clear understanding." ”
Pei Jue came back to his senses and whispered.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou got into the carriage, and Pei Jue also got on the horse. Mrs. Yong'an Hou, who was in a state of turmoil, had no intention of asking Pei Jue. The pair of mothers and concubines each went to Pei Zhang's house with complicated feelings, and they waited for an afternoon.
waited until it was dark, and Pei Zhang was nowhere to be seen.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou couldn't hold it back, so she called the housekeeper and asked, "Did Ah Zhang go back to the house last night?" ”
The housekeeper sighed: "Don't dare to hide it from Madame, the eldest prince has not come back for three days in a row." ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou: "......"
Pei Zhang was on duty in the palace and would return home every other day. This time, I didn't come back for three days in a row. There must be something wrong in the palace, something must be wrong!
Mrs. Yong'an's eyelids kept jumping, and her face was very ugly.
Pei Jue didn't speak for a long time, and then said in a hoarse voice: "Mother, it seems that the eldest brother will not come back tonight." We'll wait tomorrow. ”
Pei Zhang was in the palace, and it was useless for Mrs. Yong'an Hou to be anxious, so she had to grit her teeth and nod.
When he came, he was frightened and hurried, and when he returned, he was depressed and cold.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou was in a very bad mood, and after returning home, she said to Pei Jue: "Princess Shouning is dead, and this family business has to be stopped." ”
Pei Jue nodded silently, and Princess Shouning's face flashed in his mind.
He and Princess Shouning have only met once.
He still remembered the appearance of the proud and beautiful girl with her head slightly raised and her eyes squinted. He also remembers her pain, vulnerability, and helplessness when she became ill.
He had already made up his mind that he would treat her well after he got married, and heal her wounds with tenderness.
Unexpectedly, he and her did not have the fate of being husband and wife. When the wedding was approaching, she died so suddenly......
He was a little gloomy, and he was a little heartbroken.
