"The minion obeys!" Lingxi lazily helped her, then turned around and went out to fetch water, all the way with a dull face, I don't understand what is good about my master in addition to a good-looking skin, and it is worthy of the emperor's love for her!

Yikun Palace was originally the residence of the Empress Dowager when she was the imperial concubine of the previous dynasty, so its luxury can be directly comparable to the Kunning Palace where the queens of previous dynasties lived, and it can even be said to be more than equal, representing the highest glory of the favorite concubine, and it is also the luxurious dream that harem women flock to.

In addition to the dormitory, there are two warm pavilions in the east and west, separated by the main hall, the ground is paved with three feet square into the drill, the light can be seen, the center is equipped with the green luan red sandalwood throne, the top hangs the gilt plaque of "Rong Deda", the two sides are respectively placed a pair of more than two feet high fairy crane Tengyun Ganoderma lucidum panhua candlestick, the river sun flower candle used in the big inner is burned on it, the candle heart is poured into the precious incense, so it burns up the fragrance and hits people, but also makes the gorgeous furnishings full of brilliance, everywhere you can see the luxurious atmosphere of wealth and peace of heaven, shaking people can not open their eyes.

Rong Lu was wearing a navy blue plain silk forging robe, sitting quietly on the nanmu chair waiting for Ming Shen, because of the national mourning and filial piety, so the outside was covered with white cloth and vegetarian, and he did not shave his stubble, and he was worried about Ming Shen's safety for several days, and he kept adjusting the cause of his father's death, and now his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked a little anxious.

Qiu Gui brought refreshments and fruits, Rong Lu took the tentacle warm Hetian white jade tea cup, looked at the amber tea soup, aged high-grade Pu'er, it can be seen that the emperor really cherishes his sister, otherwise how would this Yikun Palace supply the luxury without flawlessness?

While he was thinking about it, he saw a figure swaying at the curtain of thousands of pearls the size of a dragon's eye, accompanied by the sound of jingling bells colliding with the clothes and ornaments, Ming Shen had already taken a seat, and due to the rules of the palace, the meeting between the brothers and sisters had to be separated by the curtains!

"Weichen to Niangniang, Niangniang auspicious!" Rong Lu got up and saluted, although this move was a little raw, but the brother and sister are on the cusp of the storm at the moment, and they should be avoided, and the province will be the one who is talking!

"The young general doesn't need to be polite, get up and take a seat!" Ming Shen sat upright, wearing a cloud-white soft silk wide-sleeved long coat, lined with a green lotus pleated skirt, with a half-pulled bun and half draped, and only a few plain silver hairpins.

Rong Lu listened to her voice and was sickly, and as soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but get up and care: "I don't know how Niangniang's condition is?" If there is any discomfort, you should order the imperial doctor to recuperate, but don't support yourself! ”

"The palace is already in the way, the young general doesn't need to worry!" Ming Shen coughed lightly twice and continued: "Actually, this palace summoned the general into the palace today to ask about the cause of my father's death and the results of your investigation in the past few days!" ”

Rong Lu said gloomily: "My father died by hanging, after the mother and my father met that night, early the next morning, the jailer found that my father was hanging himself, and the spearhead at that time was all pointed at Niangniang, so Weichen felt that his father's death was strange, but after a few days of investigation, there was no doubt to be found, so I speculated that my father was just a hero for a while, and maybe he couldn't say!" ”

"The prison of the Zongren Mansion is the most heavily guarded, how could there be a rope for my father to hang himself?" Ming Shen raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

"Father is using ...... He hanged himself from the prison with his trouser belt. Rong Lu showed grief on his face and fell into deep self-blame: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have pointed a sword at him that night, my father probably saw that the country was changing hands and the family was hopeless, so he was disheartened and made a suicide move!" ”

Ming Shen vetoed on the spot: "This is simply impossible, our father Rong Ma has been leading thousands of troops to conquer the north and the south all his life, what a pride he is, he looks down on those monarchs who hanged themselves after losing the country, how could he hang himself with a trouser belt now, and die so badly?" ”

When Rong Lu heard this, he immediately woke up from his grief: "What does Niangniang mean that my father did not commit suicide, but?" ”

"He kills, he definitely kills!" Ming Shen stood up with the armrest of the throne, and his eyes flashed with hatred: "The means of such a move must come from the hands of the eunuchs, and the mastermind behind the scenes who can command this villain must come from among the few people who followed the emperor to break into the palace." ”

Rong Lu tightened his eyebrows and asked, "How dare Niangniang be so sure?" ”

Ming Shen sighed and explained: "That night, the palace talked a lot with my father, and in the end he not only promised the palace to bow down, but also made up his mind to take Aunt Xian to return to the mountains and forests together, and never interfere in the government again, brother, you said, he thought so, is it possible to hang himself again?" ”

Hearing this, Rong Lu was shocked: "Why did he take Aunt Xian, they are brothers and sisters, isn't this incest!" ”

Ming Shen replied with a smile: "Actually, Aunt Xian is not our father's sister, but a daughter of the Shen family, when my father saw that she looked similar to Shen Rou, the eldest lady of the Shen family, so he was commensurate with brother and sister, and sent her to Emperor Xuande as eyes and ears!" ”

Rong Lu said suddenly: "No wonder my father is bent on supporting his aunt's son as the emperor, it turns out that he has this old love, and he always couldn't understand why Aunt Xian and Princess Gulun * only targeted Niangniang's mother and daughter, but now that I think about it, I probably think that Aunt Mei Xiang is as beautiful as her, and I am jealous!" ”

Ming Shen didn't want to continue this topic, but said: "The grievances of the previous generation, let's be the younger generation, it's better not to evaluate, the most important thing at the moment is to find out the murderer of my father as soon as possible, otherwise the palace will not even sleep peacefully, as long as I think of this person in secret, I will put a cold arrow in the back of the palace at any time, and the palace shudder!" ”

Rong Lu thought for a while and chuckled: "That night, I knew that Niangniang went to the Zongren Mansion in addition to Weichen, there were also the emperor and Bai Pengfei, but the emperor was not stable on the throne, and he should not make a fuss at that sensitive juncture, and Bai Pengfei is not like it, the Bai family has always been above board, and he should not use such a means to do this, and that Bai Pengfei seems to have a good relationship with Niangniang, after the day before yesterday, he also chased Weichen to greet Niangniang's condition has improved!" ”

"Ahem!" After Ming Shen was slightly embarrassed, the clouds between his eyebrows were dense: "This palace doesn't suspect much about the people of the Bai family, but there is a person, it's really suspicious!" ”

"Who is it?"

Ming Shen was silent for a moment, and his lips and teeth overflowed with two words: "Concubine Hui!" ”

"It's only her, who has lived in the harem for many years, so she naturally has a lot of eyes and ears, and she can also command those eunuchs!"

When Rong Lu said this, he looked at Ming Shen with great concern, and continued: "Niangniang is alone in the deep palace, you should be more careful, beware of this person, don't clash with her head-on, so as not to fall into her way!" ”

Ming Shen raised his forehead and sneered, and only said: "Brother don't worry, sister knows the measure!" ”

Although the funeral of the first emperor was held in a grand and huge manner, the top priority of the new monarch succeeding to the throne, establishing the queen, and sealing the concubines is also urgent, so this very grand funeral can only be buried at the end of the hurried event!

The harem is a place with red and white, those old ladies and bureaucratic wives, Ming Shen is very hot in front of them, and it is very likely that they are the queen's candidates, so they went to Yikun Palace to give gifts, but Ming Shen refused all the guests who gave gifts in the name of raising a fetus, and gave a closed meal to all the people who came to tie the knot.

Later, some people were disgraced, so they secretly held a grudge, and spread rumors such as killing the monarch and forcing her father to slander her reputation, mixed with gossip that she had no one in her eyes, and she was spoiled and spoiled, which caused a sensation inside and outside the government and the opposition for a while, and it was even more popular in the inner courtyard of the palace.

As the emperor's biological mother, Concubine Hui is naturally a well-deserved queen mother, living in Cining Palace, titled 'He Shu', and the history books record her as the Empress Dowager Hui Hui, but in private the palace people call her 'Empress Dowager Hui'!

Originally, people thought that the emperor would be angry with the Empress Dowager Hui, and beat the emperor's favorite concubine Xian Guifei and henchman Xiang Concubine into the cold palace, or forced her to die of martyrdom, but unexpectedly, Xian Guifei was named Gui Taifei, and Xiang Concubine was named Xiang Tai Concubine, and did not let them move out of the palace to Li Palace to recuperate, but let Xian Guifei still live in Xianfu Palace, and Xiang Concubine was given to live in Shoukang Palace!

The queen's candidate did not fall on Ming Shen's head as speculated by the outside world, but was taken by his wife Gu Su, but she was not allowed to live in the Kunning Palace belonging to the queen, but was given the title of Jingren Palace, and was named 'Xiaoxian', which was recorded in the history books as Queen Xiaoxian Lan, known as 'Queen Lan'.

The side concubine Bai was canonized as a concubine from the first grade, and was given the title of "phoenix", which can be seen in the grace and dignity.

And was given by Wenxuan to live in Changchun Palace, which was an auspicious place that meant eternal prosperity, but Bai Fengxi thought that Changchun Palace was far away from the palace where the emperor lived and had a slight whisper, so Wenxuan gave a plaque and changed Changchun to Guan Ju, which meant that in the "Book of Songs" in the "Guan Guan Ju Ju, in the river island, fair lady, gentleman is good", which made Bai Fengxi happy to give up and not complain.

Mrs. Murong was named the concubine of the third grade and gave her residence in the Jardine Palace! Mrs. Xilin was named a concubine and gave her a place in the Hehuan Palace! The two of them are relatively fair, and they do not favor one over the other, which shows the weight of Xi Linkun and Murong Fan in Wen Xuan's heart at present, and the same!

And Ming Shen entered the luxurious Yikun Palace, and among the six palaces, she was the only one who had the word "Kun" related to the queen, but she only got a second-grade concubine, and she didn't even have a title.

Among the concubines canonized this time, the strangest thing is not Ming Shen, but Nangong Xue, although she was married into the Duan Prince's Mansion as a lowly concubine, and the service time is still short, and there are no heirs to follow, she actually became a noble concubine from the second rank in one fell swoop, not only above the concubine Lin and Xue Concubine who have served for many years, but also only one level lower than the pregnant dragon descendant, the prominent Ming Shen of the mother's family, it can be said that she is a step to the sky, and the upstart is on top, becoming the most popular woman in the harem.
