The next day was the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, it was still a good sunny day, the streets and alleys of Lin'an City, closed doors, deserted, a light snow fell in the middle of the night last night, and in the morning, the road was covered with snow, except for the occasional line of soldiers walking by, leaving a long list of footprints, the rest of the place was as smooth as new, looking like a tiled white carpet.

Suddenly, someone heard the death knell, a long sound, and after a few moments, there was a long sound. There is no need to declare the world, and the people know who died?

The new lord has attacked the city, and the old lord has of course only a dead end.

In the past, when the emperor was mourned, he had to hang up white silk in every household, everyone wore plain clothes, and burned incense and kowtowed at home to express his condolences to the emperor. But this time, no one dared to take the lead in plain clothes, hanging white silk, and had prepared new clothes for the New Year, but they didn't dare to wear them, they all stood in their respective yards, tiptoed out, and the neighbors made eye contact, and finally looked at it, everyone was neither white nor red, they were all wearing ordinary clothes, and they were in a daze with a blank look at the sky.

The emperor's Zigong is placed in the long body hall, the mourning hall is arranged solemnly and solemnly, the lintel is hung with white fan, carrying a white lantern, there are not many people in the mourning shed, all are the concubines of the harem and some eunuchs and palace maids, none of the civil and military officials came, at this time, no one dares to come to the troubled waters, and if you don't get it, you have to follow the emperor of Daxing.

Gao Shenghai knelt on the far left of the crowd, crying a handful of tears and snot, not crying the emperor, but crying himself, when the queen died, he became an accomplice of Bai Guifei, if the king of Chu wanted to settle accounts after the autumn, he had to take him under the knife, and now he didn't move, probably because there were too many things, and he didn't take care of it, and when the emperor of Daxing mourned, it would be his turn.

He didn't think about escaping, the people who were on the blacklist of the King of Chu, where could they escape, and if they acted rashly, they could only die faster.

All kinds of offerings on the table are piled up into a spire, the smoke of incense and candles is swirling in the air, and the smoke is a little muddy, and behind the white flags, the sound of Taoist monks chanting scriptures comes out in a steady stream.

The concubines cried so much that they were all pear blossoms with rain, true affection, according to the rules of Dongyue, they were the concubines of the previous dynasty, and those who had not left a brand with a low rank could be released, and those who had left a brand and a high rank were either martyred or died in the palace, which is not a good ending, especially those who gave birth to children, knowing that the prince could not allow them, I am afraid that after the funeral of Emperor Daxing, the next wave should be their turn, which palace change is not poured out with blood.

The person in charge here is Liu Fu, the head of Fengming Palace, and he arranges all the big and small matters, and the prince and the king of Chu have never shown up.

Concubine Rui is recuperating from her injuries, firstly, she is cold to the emperor, and secondly, her seniority is there, she does not gossiping, naturally no one dares to gossip. It hurt her left shoulder, and eating and drinking tea was not a hindrance, but she was used to being respected, and a little flesh injury also made her suffer greatly.

In the morning, Mama Rong changed the medicine for her, and she was very surprised when she said that the king of Chu rested in the matching hall last night, "The prince really rested here?" ”

"Of course it's true," Mama Rong looked at her surprised expression, a little funny, "Is it possible that the slave maid will not be able to trick you?" ”

Concubine Rui was stunned, "Then why didn't he come to see the mourning family?" ”

"The situation has just calmed down, the prince is busy, and when he is free, he will naturally come to see you."

Concubine Rui sighed and slowly leaned on the soft couch, "He will live in the palace of the mourning family, but the mourning family did not expect it." ”

"The prince has been worried about the concubine, he didn't say it, he still remembered it in his heart, he also came to see you yesterday, but he was standing outside, and he left when he heard that your injury didn't matter." Mama Rong enlightened her, "What kind of character is our prince, the mother should know, the heart is heavy, the feelings are not easily exposed, the slave maid said something unpleasant, we really did something wrong at the beginning, no matter who the princess of Chu is, only she can make the prince happy, now that she is gone, the prince is so sad, the concubine has seen the prince, his appearance, the slave and the maid look really uncomfortable." ”

Concubine Rui didn't speak, half loudly, and sighed heavily, "Don't mention the past, let's look back, if he is willing to give the mourning family a chance, the mourning family is willing to rebuild with him." The emperor is gone, and the only one who can rely on him is the prince...... The mourning family used to help the emperor, and the prince must have a gap in the mourning family, but he was afraid that he would be caught in the middle and be in a dilemma, and the mourning family always felt that the prince was too scheming to see through, and the mourning family followed him, and the mourning family was always a little worried, in fact, he beat down the world, why bother to make a dowry for others......"

"Concubine," Mama Rong hurriedly interrupted her and lowered her voice, "Now that the prince is the prince, be careful that the wall has ears, it really makes people listen, and it will cause trouble for our prince." ”

As he was talking, the little eunuch outside ran in with a smoke: "Concubine Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" ”

Concubine Rui and Mama Rong glanced at each other, both were shocked, Mama Rong hurriedly tidied up the clothes for Concubine Rui, took a small blanket and put it on her lap, and whispered: "Concubine don't panic, with the prince here, the prince will not dare to do anything to you." ”

Concubine Rui snorted, pressed her right hand on her left hand, gently stroked the armor inlaid with red treasures, and said slowly: "Please come in, His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Soon, the prince came in and stepped forward with a smile, "Is the concubine's injury better?" Yesterday, the third brother was reckless, and I accompanied the concubine on his behalf. As he spoke, he bowed deeply, looking quite polite.

Concubine Rui raised her hand and said with a smile: "A little flesh wound is not enough to worry about, and the mourning family can understand it, how can the mourning family receive such a big gift from His Royal Highness, let the mourning family know, but blame the mourning family for taking the big one." ”

"How do you say this, the concubine is an elder, and the elder should be courteous to the younger generation," the prince sat down and said with a smile, "What's more, this siege also caused the concubine to be injured, which is really unfilial piety to the sons." ”

The first emperor and queen are gone, and he calls his son as a person, which can be regarded as the prince's attitude towards Concubine Rui, and in the future, he will definitely honor her like the King of Chu, and he will not give less than Mo Ronghan.

Concubine Rui suddenly understood at this moment, she always thought that the eldest prince Murong Han thought of the kindness she had raised him, so she looked down on her and let her live a nourishing life in her old age, it turned out that he was the same as the prince, because of Murong Mian's relationship, because he wanted Murong Mian to guard the country for them, so he was good to her.

This cognition made her heart mixed, although she gave birth to Murong Mian, but she never raised him, nor did she do anything for him, in the end, what she thought was a good son, in fact, was a white-eyed wolf, and she thought that her own son across the heart was the support of her glory and wealth in her later years, but unfortunately she didn't understand it until now.
