Chapter 139: The Dark Shadow of the Mourning Hall

Mama Gong, Liu Nong and others hurriedly stopped Xue Yi: "If the princess wants anything, just tell it, and the minions will take it." ”

Xue Yi's fingers were on her lips and she said mysteriously: "Shh....... don't be noisy, the prince likes to be quiet, I'll go make his favorite hibiscus cake for the prince." ”

The fifth prince saw Xue Yi look a little insane because of excessive sadness, and his heart was also miserable, he saw that the palace grandmother and Liu Nong pushed the trance Xue Yi to the bed again, his body shook, jumped on the roof, tears in his eyes, and regretted it.

"If you knew today, why bother?" Xiao Yan's voice was extremely cold.

"How was it today? If I don't do this, won't I be able to shrink into my shell and be a turtle for the rest of my life? The fifth prince turned his back to Xiao Yu and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Are you really not afraid that Xue Yi will seek death again? If it weren't for her extreme fatigue this afternoon, I'm afraid she would have died in the coffin! Are you really afraid of self-defeating? Xiao Yu sat down beside the fifth prince and handed him the wine gourd in his hand.

The fifth prince didn't look at Xiao Yu, he took the gourd with his hand and poured it up violently, pouring his own tears straight into his own eyes, how could he not be afraid? ! Now thinking of the scene when Xue Yi's head touched the coffin, his heart still couldn't help beating wildly, at that moment, he wanted to kill himself, just now he almost showed his feet, if Xue Yi knew that he was Xiao Yichen at this time, then Xue Yi would definitely hate him to death.

Fortunately, he stabilized his position at the last moment, and fortunately Xue Yi was safe and sound, otherwise he would not let himself go even if he had a great revenge and a long-cherished wish!

There was another burst of hard pouring, Xiao Yu really couldn't stand it anymore, and snatched the wine gourd: "I don't want you to pour yourself to death, since it's so uncomfortable, why don't you confess everything to her?" The prince generously told you what happened in the past and your hardships, I think with the kindness and wisdom of the princess, I will forgive you! Is it so hard to say what is in your heart?! “

The fifth prince grabbed Xiao Yu's shoulders with emotion, and his eyes were full of redness and said word by word: "Xiao Xiao, I warn you, Xiao Yichen is dead, and I, from the moment Xiao Yichen died, is Xiao Luochen, the fifth prince, I only hope that she can get pregnant, and she will save her own life for that child at that time." “

Xiao Yu disagreed: "One month is enough time for her to abuse herself, but in the past three days, she has already been like a tree, I'm afraid that Lan Xue can't wait for the time you wait!" “

The fifth prince suddenly stood up irritably, stood on the roof with his hands in his hands, and let the north wind blow his head.

Suddenly, he saw the lanterns jumping in the courtyard, and a group of people came out of the house, with eight little maids in front, carrying white air death lanterns, and Xiaohu followed closely behind.

"Princess, can you really do it? The mourning hall is taken care of by Xiao Yu, and the five princes have already arranged everything, so if the princess doesn't go, don't go......." Mama Gong walked out of the house with Xue Yi in her arms, and the snow blown by the cold wind in her face couldn't help but shudder, and Mama Gong had a sad face, and her concern was overflowing.

Xue Yi nodded slightly, sniffled and said, "Today, the prince is buried, it stands to reason that I should be guarding in the mourning hall, how can I not go?" Mama don't persuade me anymore. ”

Liu Nong stuffed the hand stove into Xue Yi's arms, and persuaded with tears: "The prince is ruthless, he has left the princess behind, and the princess has to take care of her body, Liu Nong is a cheap girl, and her life is worthless, but Miss Xue Wu is still waiting for the princess to take care of her in our house." ”

In the end, Liu Nong is smart and understands Xue Yi's love and righteousness, although he doesn't cherish his body, he will protect himself for the sake of his family, sure enough, Xue Yi nodded and said: "Liu Nong, I know your intentions, I won't do stupid things again, don't worry, from now on, I will guard our palace and you will guard the Lan family!" “

Liu Nong woke up the dreamer with a word, Xiao Yichen's sudden death made Xue Yi confused, and now hearing Xue Wu's name reminded her of the three conditions she gave to the five princes that day, the five princes agreed to everything, except for not agreeing to let go of her father Lan Guang, Xue Yi knew very well in her heart that the five princes and Xiao Yichen brothers regarded their father Lan Guang as their mother-killing enemies, and the two brothers who ascended the throne and became emperors would not easily let go of Lan Guang and let go of the Lan family, and now she is the only one who can protect the Lan family!

Xue Yi held the hand stove in her arms, Liu Nong put on a silver and white mink fur for her, waited for her to get into the soft sedan chair, and the group went straight to the mourning hall.

The fifth prince and Xiao Yi followed Xue Yi from the ridge of the roof, the two saw Xue Yi enter the mourning hall, knelt in front of the coffin and saluted with incense, the housekeeper had already prepared to get off the soft chair, Xue Yi sat down and asked some details of the funeral, and nodded reassuringly when she saw that there was no mistake: "Housekeeper, everyone has been busy for the past two days, and they must be tired, leaving only the maids and servants on duty at night, and the others will go down to rest, and remember to come on time to change shifts tomorrow morning." “

The housekeeper knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xue Yi and said, "The princess is sympathetic to the slaves, and the old slave kowtowed to the princess on behalf of everyone." “

Xue Yi waved his hand to signal that he could go down, and the housekeeper went down to make arrangements. Xue Yi looked up and saw Mama Gong staring at the coffin in a daze with tears streaming down her face, Xue Yi knew that Mama Gong was like her own son to Xiao Yichen, at this time she could fully understand her sadness and grief, but Mama was getting older after all, and she didn't sleep for two days and two nights, but she was afraid that her body would not be able to stay up, thinking of this, Xue Yi called Xiaohu: "Xiaohu, there is nothing to do here, and there is no need to wait, you and Mama Gong go back to rest, and you can change Liu Nong Duruo tomorrow morning." “

Mama Gong shook her head again and again and cried and said, "I'm not leaving!" The princess should not persuade me again, I have been dependent on Chen'er for fifteen years, and now he is leaving, I can't go with him, I can't bear it in my heart, why don't you even let me keep this vigil? “

Xue Yi no longer insisted.

Xue Yi knelt in front of the coffin and knelt for a stick of incense, Liu Nong Du Ruo and other persuasions again and again, Xue Yi stood up, because of kneeling for too long, her feet and legs were numb, and she stood unsteadily and sat on the ground for a while, the five princes and Xiao Yu on the ridge of the house saw the situation in the house very clearly, the five princes stepped forward and stretched out their hands and almost screamed, fortunately Xiao Yu grabbed his wrist in time, Xiao Yu slowly shook his head, and his eyes signaled that the five princes should not move.

The five princes sat on the roof in annoyance and began to pour wine desperately.

Xue Yi in the mourning hall didn't know that someone on the roof was secretly protecting her and watching her every move, and the five princes and Xiao Yu on the roof didn't notice it, and there was a pair of vicious eyes on the treetops not far away, staring at everything that happened at the right time.

After the drum sounded on the third watch, Xue Yi in the mourning hall reclined on the soft chair and fell asleep, Liu Nong Du Ruo and others also sat on the futon and took a nap, only the air death wind lamp stubbornly swayed in the night sky, the candle flame in the mourning hall jumped, flickering and dimming, more and more creepy, Xiao Yichen was already drunk at this time, Xiao Yi saw that it was late and had nothing else to do, and left the roof with Xiao Yichen on his back.

As soon as Xiao Yu and Xiao Yichen left with their front feet, a black shadow fell from the treetops on the ridge, and two fine lights flashed in their big eyes to look at the direction in which Xiao Yu and Xiao Yichen disappeared.

The stone fell to the ground, making a crisp snapping sound in the silent night sky, and no one came out after a while, the black shadow floated down in the courtyard, the door of the mourning hall was always open, and people in the courtyard could see the coffin stopped in the center and Xue Yi sitting aside, the black shadow did not hesitate, swept into the mourning hall, went straight to the coffin, flew on the coffin lid probe and looked in.

After Xue Yi touched the coffin with her head, the coffin lid was not tightly sealed, and someone laboriously pushed the coffin lid away, reaching out to uncover the bright yellow Jinpa covering the corpse, who knew that the coffin lid was pushed to make a slight noise, and it woke up Xue Yi in her sleep, and she broke off: "Who is it?" “

The man in black obviously didn't expect Xue Yi to wake up so soon, she was startled at first, seeing Xue Yi staring at her in a daze, she snorted coldly from her nostrils, jumped down, pulled out the sword at her waist and pointed it at Xue Yi's neck and throat, Xue Yi had completely woken up at this time, she looked at the man in black calmly and asked, "But I don't know who Your Excellency is?" What's the matter with the middle of the night? “

The man in black's cyan veil covered his face, only revealing a pair of big black eyes, staring at Xue Yi playfully, she was very curious that this powerless woman did not have a trace of fear in the face of the bright sword, the man in black was still silent, just pointed at Xue Yi's throat with the tip of the sword, as long as her hand moved forward an inch, Xue Yi would die on the spot.

Xue Yi saw that the person who came did not speak, smiled, not only did not retreat, but took a step forward towards the sword: "If Your Excellency has an enmity with the prince and is here to take revenge, then the prince will lie inside, if your Excellency wants to take my life, then I am here, what are you hesitating about?!" ”

Xue Yi did not retreat but advanced, which surprised the man in black, instinctively took two steps back, and asked in surprise: "Are you really not afraid of death?!" ”

It was a woman's voice! And that voice is so familiar!

Xue Yi obviously didn't expect that the person who came was a woman, although the woman deliberately hoarsely voiced, Xue Yi still felt that she had heard this voice somewhere, a little dumb but very gentle, Xue Yi searched hard in her mind, who is it?

No matter who it is, since it is a woman, it must have something to do with Xiao Yichen, Xue Yi took another step forward: "It turns out that you are also a woman, you must be an old acquaintance with our prince?" At this point in the night, there must be unspeakable hardships. ”

"Stop!" The woman's voice was cold, and she took another step back and shouted angrily: "You take another step forward and blame me for being ruthless!" ”

The tip of the sword never left an inch away from Xue Yi's neck, it can be seen that although the woman did not immediately ask for Xue Yi's life, she did not intend to let her go, the woman was silent for a moment and then suddenly asked, "Who is lying in the coffin?" ”

Xue Yi was also shocked when she heard this, her eyes couldn't help falling on the coffin, and she blurted out: "Naturally, it's the prince." ”

The woman stepped forward, and the sword pressed against Xue Yi's neck, Xue Yi only felt a chill in her throat, and the woman smiled coldly: "Hmph, are you a three-year-old child when you are an aunt?!" The one lying in the coffin was not Xiao Yichen at all! Say, where is the one who has no conscience?! ”
