Chapter 2 The concubine seeks death

That's what it means to be merciful.

The few palace people who had bound Bai Shijun before let go of their hands, and Bai Shijun bowed down and saluted a few people on both sides, and then walked quickly to Bai Ling, squatted down and hugged her in his arms.

Bai Ling leaned on his father's chest, and before he could speak, he heard Bai Shijun whisper in his ear, "Don't be afraid, Bai Ling, I sent someone to deliver the letter to your brother last night, and he will be back in another hour or two at most." Now you go back to the house by yourself, pack your clothes, and listen to your brother's arrangement when the time comes. ”

Bai Ling whispered, "Where is Dad going?" ”

Bai Shijun didn't dare to say much, but gently coaxed, "In the palace, go and see the concubine." ”

Bai Ling raised his eyes and looked at a few palace people, approached Bai Shijun a few more points, and lowered his voice a few points, "Is it the mother who has been in a bad mood since giving birth to a child that my father said last time?" ”

Bai Shijun's face changed slightly, "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

His voice was lowered, but it was also a little harder. Bai Shijun shook Bai Ling's hand hard, "Don't wait for your brother at home, don't run around, you know?" ”

Bai Ling looked at Bai Shijun's eyes and nodded sensibly.

Bai Shijun only felt a sour nose and quickly stood up.

The road ahead is dangerous, and this separation may be the last time the father and daughter will see each other. Even if you are reluctant to give up in your heart, you must leave at this time.

Looking at Bai Shijun's breezy and cold back, Bai Ling frowned thoughtfully, revealing a thoughtful expression that did not belong to her age.

She had heard of the name of this Qu Guifei.

Concubine Qu Guifei was no longer a young concubine in the palace, but those girls who had just entered the palace at the age of sixteen or seventeen had no way to weaken her at all. On the one hand, this is because she is indeed like a heavenly person, and the increase in age not only does not make her old, but makes her a little more gentle and tenacious that she did not have when she was young.

What's more, Qu Guifei's dancing posture has never been unparalleled in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Bai Ling remembered that in the year when Qu Guifei was twenty-four years old and did not conceive a dragon heir, the military affairs in the north were frequently reported, and it happened that at that time, regardless of the north and south, the harvest of crops was surprisingly good, so the emperor set up a big banquet outside the Taihe Palace, and the people of the city could come to the banquet regardless of their background.

That night, the emperor played the piano and the concubine danced her sleeves to show that the king and the people were having fun.

Bai Ling also had a brief relationship with this Qu Guifei that night, but that glimpse had already imprinted the immortality of Qu Guifei's appearance on Bai Ling's heart.

It was from that night onwards that this lady won a great reward in the capital. For a time, countless subjects fell for it, not to mention how many literati and writers left excellent articles for her.

Now, Concubine Qu Guifei has passed her twenty-seventh birthday, and she just gave birth to a dragon son half a year ago, and her holy favor can be imagined.

If there is a problem with her diagnosis and treatment...... I'm afraid that Bai Shijun will be more than lucky.

On the other end, a group of people quickly carried the sedan chair and came to the south of the Forbidden City.

From time to time, Bai Shijun lifted the sedan curtain to explore his position.

Seeing that not far in front of him was the first gate of the Forbidden City, the Gate of Chengtian, the sedan chair stopped, the palace people got off the sedan chair and walked, and Bai Shijun followed.

Walking here, Bai Shijun somehow remembered that every year after the frost fell, the officials and other yamen would interrogate the heavy prisoners of the criminal department here.

How many miserable rains have been listened to by these three strict and towering palace walls?

Will you be among them after today?

These thoughts made him shiver involuntarily, and he only felt that his body had become stiff and did not obey the call. He knew that he was scaring himself, so he had to force himself not to think about it anymore, and then adjusted his breathing, looking intently at the slowly opening vermilion palace gate in front of him.

The palace is now full of slaughter.

Outside the palace gate of Chengqian Palace, there were eunuchs and palace maids kneeling with red and swollen corners of their mouths, all of whom were curled up on the ground with their heads bowed at the moment, and no one dared to make a sound, but they could still hear very light sobs.

Their lives are long gone, but no one can take care of them at this time.

Because, just this morning, Concubine Qu in the Chengqian Palace was looking for death again.

This is the fourth time she has sought death since she gave birth to the dragon heir, and this time, it almost made her die.
