In the autumn of the twenty-eighth year of Kangxi, Empress Tong Jia died, and the whole country mourned.

The twelve-year-old fourth elder brother Yinzhen knelt on the futon in front of the coffin, and the whole person was shaking, crying several times and fainting.

Aunt Yuehua knelt beside Yinzhen, her wrinkled hands gently patted his back, and said hoarsely: "Fourth elder brother, mourn." ”

Yin Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Aunt Yuehua. His eyes were bloodshot and his eyes were red and swollen. He opened his mouth for a long time and didn't speak, only nodded slightly.

He clenched his fists and tried to restrain himself, but the tears still flowed.

At this moment, a slightly dilapidated corner of Queen Daxing's Chengqian Palace, and the same palace maids and grandmothers are also busy.

"Sister Qinghuan was overly sad, and she went with Queen Daxing, which is really sad and lamentable. Although this loyalty can be revealed, it is not good for her to stay here now. ”

The little palace maid standing on the steps wiped the tears from her eyes, and her eyes were full of sorrow and grief.

Immediately, she pointed to an old Cheng eunuch and said, "Father-in-law Cheng, I will trouble you to send Qinghuan's sister's body out of the palace." ”

When Cheng Gonggong heard this, he responded expressionlessly, and turned back to his apprentice and glanced at him.

The man immediately understood, and Zhang Luo picked up the little palace maid wrapped in the straw mat and went outside.

At this moment, the Chengqian Palace was already in a mess, and all the people were busy with the funeral of the queen, so naturally no one noticed that the little palace maid who was wrapped in a straw mat was carried out from the back corner door.

…

Zhang Tingyu followed behind Ama Zhang Ying with his hands in his hands, and slowly walked on the palace road.

The gloomy sky, covered by dark clouds, really makes people feel a little breathless. As the companion and best friend of Yinzhen, the fourth son of the emperor, he can also deeply understand Yinzhen's sadness at this moment.

Last year, his mother also passed away.

"Hurry up, don't let anyone see it."

Suddenly, a small voice came from the corner of the palace road. Zhang Tingyu was full of worries, but when he heard this voice, he glanced to the side.

A few palace maids and grandmothers were carrying something outside. The small steps were fast, and they disappeared from view in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Tingyu felt strange, and the steps under his feet paused.

"Huh?"

Zhang Ying, who was walking in front, seemed to notice his son's strange appearance, and couldn't help but glance back.

"Amma." Zhang Tingyu arched his hand and said, "My son just saw a few palace people carrying something over. Like, to leave the palace. ”

"Hmm." Zhang Ying responded lightly, obviously not caring about this, and turned around to leave.

"Amma." Zhang Tingyu spoke up again, frowned and said, "My son always feels something different and wants to go over and take a look." Queen Daxing has just passed away, and there can be no chaos in the palace. ”

Zhang Ying's eyebrows flashed, feeling that his son had a good temperament, and there was nothing to refute this, so he could only nod and say, "Go and come back quickly." ”

Zhang Tingyu answered in a low voice, turned around and quickly went in the direction just now.

Suddenly, Zhang Tingyu had already caught up with that group.

"Who are you? What are you carrying? Zhang Tingyu got straight to the point, and also took out the nameplate that could show his identity.

He is the second son of Zhang Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and now he is also famous, so he can naturally be regarded as a famous son.

Cheng's father-in-law, who was the leader, glanced at the nameplate, and was so frightened that his legs went weak and immediately knelt down.

Damn, how did you get bumped into by a nobleman?

"The slave has seen Zhang Gongzi." Cheng Gonggong trembled and replied: "What she is carrying is just a little palace maid who has just passed by Chengqian Palace." ”

"There are a lot of things in the palace at this time, and Aunt Yuehua heard that a little palace maid has passed away from grief, so she specially ordered the servants to take her out of the palace for burial."

Aunt Yuehua is the one who grew up serving Queen Daxing. At the same time, he is also the person who grew up with the fourth elder brother Yinzhen. She is in Chengqian Palace, and everyone knows about it.

Zhang Tingyu glanced at Cheng's father-in-law.

Cheng's triangular eyes were flashing at the moment, looking a little nervous. According to Zhang Tingyu's many years of experience in watching people, he felt that this was a lack of heart.

As he spoke, the man in the straw mat somehow suddenly pulled his hand out.

The palace maids who carried the corpses were startled, and they all curled up their legs and shrank back.

Zhang Tingyu's eyes also shrank, and he immediately found that the fingers that were hanging out actually moved.

People are alive!

"I look at this man as if he's not dead!" Zhang Tingyu gritted his teeth and said, kicked away Cheng's father-in-law, stepped forward, and pulled the straw mat.

Gu Qinghuan only felt a headache, and he was turned upside down by others, like motion sickness, and his whole body was dizzy.

It was easy to stop, and she only felt a pain in her back, as if she had been thrown to the ground. Immediately, she moved and poked her hand out.

The floor was cold, and it seemed to be a little wet.

She seems to be lying on the ground? Still... Hear someone talking?

My consciousness was foggy, and suddenly my eyes lit up. Gu Qinghuan, who was accustomed to the dark, suddenly saw the bright light, squinted his eyes slightly, and saw a person.

The silhouette is a little blurry, and the hairline is a little high. Although his face was handsome, he seemed to have a straight face.

Who is this? Gu Qinghuan didn't recognize this person.

She was taking an online class, and when she dozed off, she was called by the teacher to answer questions. She was so frightened that she convulsed, as if she had fainted.

"This girl is still alive, and she was thrown out as a corpse by you?"

Zhang Tingyu obviously noticed that the little palace maid in front of him had just winked at him. Immediately, the whole person was indignant, and pointed at Cheng's father-in-law and said, "Still talking about Aunt Yuehua?" ”

Cheng's father-in-law was already as earth-colored as he was at this time.

When he was in Chengqian Palace, he personally probed his nose, confirmed that the person was dead, and received five taels of silver from the palace maid, so he carried the person out and threw it away!

That's five taels of silver!

It's enough for him to eat and drink a few meals.

Who ever wanted to take a risk, and it really made a fuss!

"Minions... Minions..."

Cheng's father-in-law's voice trembled and he wanted to explain, but he took Zhang Tingyu's kick firmly, right in the center.

"Ahh Before he could react, he saw Zhang Tingyu carrying the people in the grass seat, and walked angrily in the direction they came.

"Suffered!"

Gonggong Cheng couldn't care about the pain in his heart, so he hurriedly stood up, beckoned the palace maids who were already dumbfounded and thought they were cheating, and chased after them.

In front of the gate of the Chengqian Palace, the officials of the women had already knelt together.

When Zhang Ying arrived, the mourning had already shook the sky. He's been walking very slowly all the way, why hasn't his son caught up yet?
