The imperial pond ripples in a circle, the moonlight is hazy and covered, and the moon on the surface of the pond is sometimes hidden, sometimes emerging, gradually setting in the west, and tends to be calm.

Feiyan found Yi Concubine's jade bracelet, and searched for a long time along the road, but there was no trace of Yi Concubine, until she arrived at Yonghe Palace, asked the little eunuch guarding the door, and learned that Yi Concubine had not returned to the palace, and immediately became anxious.

Yonghe Palace dispatched all the eunuchs and palace maids to search for a night along the path of the imperial garden, but there was still no news.

At dawn, Bai Chang of the West Side Hall heard that Concubine Yi did not return all night, so he anxiously summoned Feiyan and asked, "Sister, how did she disappear?" ”

Feiyan couldn't sleep all night, and said worriedly: "Last night, the slave shouldn't have left Niangniang to go back to the palace alone, the road is far away after dark, and there is a path that few people pass by, will something happen to Concubine Yi Niangniang?" ”

Bai Chang hesitated for a long time, and said: "You can't find it all night, my sister must be in prison, now I can only go to Yikun Palace and ask the queen to come forward." ”

After all, Bai Chang thought that the sedan chair was slow, so he took Feiyan and went straight to Yikun Palace.

At that time, Yikun Palace was the time for the concubines to ask for peace, and all the palaces gathered together, but there was only one concubine missing.

Ying Yun glanced at Yi Concubine's vacant seat and said, "Yi Concubine is becoming more and more unruly, neither come to ask for peace, nor do you have any news." ”

Concubine Ling and Concubine Shun looked at each other and replied: "Concubine Yi has been copying scriptures in the Buddhist hall for several days in a row, maybe she is tired and sleepy, and she missed the hour." ”

While he was talking, Wushun opened the curtain and came in, and reported: "Queen Niangniang, Bai Chang is begging to see Niangniang." ”

"What is she here for?" Ying Yun was suspicious in her heart and said, "Let her come in." "Micro book

Bai Changzai walked in with Feiyan, saluted to Yingyun, and said hurriedly: "Queen Niangniang, after Concubine Yi came out of the Buddhist hall last night, she has not seen anyone until now, and the concubine feels that Concubine Yi Niangniang must be trapped somewhere in the palace, so I sincerely ask the Queen Niangniang to thoroughly inspect the harem." ”

Ying Yun said suspiciously: "You mean Concubine Yi is gone?" ”

"Feiyan," Bai Chang called her to him, and said, "You are the last time you have seen Concubine Yi, you should tell the queen what is going on." ”

"Yes." Feiyan told the situation of that night again, and all the concubines present were suspicious.

The concubines discussed in private, is it possible for a good person to disappear out of thin air?

Concubine Xin said disapplausively: "Concubine Yi is the lord of the first palace, who dares to mistreat her?" Now that it's gone, she must have the intention to hide, or ...... What did you do ...... unruly?"

Concubine Chun said lightly: "No matter what Concubine Yi says, she is also the master of the first palace, how can she be allowed to disappear out of thin air?" ”

The concubines seconded the search one after another, and Yingyun issued an edict and ordered people to search for the whereabouts of Yi Concubine in the East and West Palaces.

From early morning to evening, almost all the large and small rooms in the palace were searched, but where was there a trace of Yi Concubine, as the sky became darker, everyone faintly felt that Yi Concubine's disappearance was afraid that there was something else.

Two days later, the little eunuch who was in charge of pulling weeds by the imperial pond happened to find a person floating on the pond, and hurriedly rowed a small boat over, and when he fished the person up, it turned out to be Yi Concubine, who had long lost her breath, and her body was swelled, and she was suddenly frightened as if she had lost her soul.

When the news of Yi Concubine's drowning of the imperial pool came, Ying Yun was talking about it at the Queen Mother, and both of them were taken aback, and they first asked Yi Concubine to be carried back to Yonghe Palace.
