Xiao Qian sat on the couch, deep and motionless, and the flickering red candle stretched his figure and cast it on the ground, forming a slender figure.

Lady Lan Xiang quietly moved her palm, and her slender fingers rested on the head of the slender figure, as if she was caressing the shadow.

Her small movements all fell into Xiao Gan's eyes, Xiao Qian pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and did not care about her.

"You get up and talk, it's cold on the ground."

He reached out and lifted Mrs. Lanxiang up, "Why are you so alarmed?" ”

Mrs. Lanxiang lowered her head and lowered her eyes, crying, "King, the concubine has been looking through the history of Tong in the palace in the past few days, and she has called the court order to ask and found that Sun Zhaoyi ...... Sun Zhaoyi's monthly letter has not arrived for three months. ”

Xiao Gan's hand clenched suddenly, and Mrs. Lanxiang was in pain, so she immediately bit her lips to prevent herself from crying out in pain.

"Who else knows about this?"

Mrs. Lanxiang lowered her eyes, "Only the concubine knows." ”

The female official who recorded the history of Tong and the court order did not communicate with each other, and the two only knew Sun Zhaoyi's monthly affairs and whether Xiao Qian stayed at Sun Zhaoyi's place. Unless the two records are compared together like Mrs. Lanxiang, it is impossible to see that it is boring.

Xiao Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and his hand also loosened, "Lonely hurt you, right?" ”

Mrs. Lanxiang hurriedly knelt down again, "King, the concubine is guilty......"

Xiao Qian held her and didn't let her kneel, "What are you guilty of?" Let people present the history of Tong and Yin Note and take a look at it. ”

Mrs. Lan Xiang answered, withdrew, and went to arrange it herself.

Fortunately, on the way back to the palace, she asked the maid to transfer Tong Shi and Yin Zhu, which is easy to deal with at this time.

Mrs. Lan Xiang hurriedly took Tong Shi and Yin Zhu from the hands of her personal maid, and sighed silently.

She has no son under her knees, and she has long since extinguished her desire to compete for favor.

If it weren't for the Eighth Princess, why would she bother to wade into this troubled water.

Mrs. Lan Xiang held the tray in one hand and gently stroked the Tong history book with the other, and stood in front of the palace gate for a long time.

That's it, if she doesn't say it, the eighth princess's character will get into trouble sooner or later.

It's not that she doesn't miss the old love, but Sun Zhaoyi died by herself.

If you have to find a reason, then it should be to avenge Ah Yu and Ah Mei.

Mrs. Lan Xiang chanted "Amitabha" in her mouth and pushed open the closed door of the temple.

……

Sun Zhaoyi is sick.

The palace gate of Penglai Palace was closed, except for the two personal maids, the palace people in the first palace were all moved out of the palace, and they didn't know where to go.

I heard that Sun Zhaoyi was infected with the epidemic.

This is amazing, if it spreads, the palace will be infected.

Doctor Su is a good hand at treating the plague, and under his leadership, the palace doctor is methodically carrying out the prevention and control of the plague.

Everyone in Wanfu Palace has to drink a bowl of thick bitter medicine every day, and they are also sprinkled with medicinal powder inside and out.

Especially here in the west side hall, it is like a great enemy. A few little girls who usually play with Xiao Yuan are all detained in the palace and not allowed to go out.

Empress Dowager Xu also specially took leave with Hanzhangge, because the New Year was two months away, and Empress Dowager Xu simply asked Xiao Yuan to go to study after the New Year.

Xiao Yuan is also happy. Now Hanzhang Pavilion is left with the fifth and seventh sons and their companions, and Chu Qi is waiting to marry at home, and no one accompanies her. She went to Hanzhang Pavilion, the fifth prince always likes to sneer at her, she is very uncomfortable, it is better to read books by herself in the West Side Palace. If there is anything you don't understand, ask Mr. again.

After more than half a month, Sun Zhaoyi's illness not only did not improve, but became more and more serious. At the end of this year, the palace was gloomy, and there was no New Year's atmosphere.

Sun Zhaoyi was ill, Mrs. Lanxiang couldn't be busy alone, and Mrs. Allure thought that the power to hold the middle palace could be divided into half on her shoulders, but unexpectedly, Xiao Qian pointed out this burden to He Zhaorong.

Mrs. Allure was naturally angry, but fortunately, she heard that Zheng Zhaoyuan was unconvinced, and she found He Zhaorong to trouble several times, and was reprimanded by Xiao Qian in public, and finally had a place to vent this anger in her heart.

On the second day of the lunar month, Sun Zhaoyi gradually couldn't support it, and actually gave up and returned to the west.

Because he was infected with the epidemic, he couldn't even keep his body, so he was pulled out and burned with fire. Inside and outside Penglai Palace, as long as it was Sun Zhaoyi's things, they were all burned clean.

However, it has only been more than a month, and Penglai Palace has become a dead palace.

"This Sun Zhaoyi is really a cheap life."

Mrs. Allure came to knock her teeth with Peony Peony, "After following the king for a long time, I gave birth to two more sons, and I was about to hold my grandson, but I was sick and died." Tsk, so this person's life is really predestined. With how she has the means, if she wants to struggle to climb up, God wants her to die, and she still has to die. ”

Mrs. Allure remembered what the Ninth Princess said, and was still indignant, "You can inquire clearly, does Sun Zhaoyi have a body?" ”

Peony stopped the embroidery work in his hand and said with a smile: "Madam, look, you have committed this kind of crime again." Isn't it all spreading, it was the second lady of the eldest prince who was pregnant, and Sun Zhaoyi asked for the second lady. Moreover, the ninth princess was under house arrest because of this matter, so don't ask again. Beware of upsetting the king. ”

Mrs. Allure hurriedly patted her face, "Yes, yes, how did I forget that little hoof." It's really a little slut who doesn't have a good heart, he looks at it silently on weekdays, and his temper is very good, who would have thought that he would have a bad stomach. Isn't there a saying outside our palace that a dog that bites doesn't bark? These nine princesses are just a biting dog! ”

remembered Xiao Yuan's good benefits again, "Looking at Ah Hao, I looked away at the beginning, and I thought she was uneasy and kind, but I didn't expect that she was really a pure-hearted person." ”

Mrs. Allure remembered that it was a play, and when she mentioned Xiao Yuan, she turned over and pushed the peony, "Did you do the big thing that you stared at last time?" If you want to make it in a hurry, it will be given to Ah Ru and Ah Hao and her sisters in the next year. Don't delay. ”

Peony said yes and went out.

It just so happened that the palace was going to issue palace rules and rewards under the year, and the Huaqing Palace was busy.

Even busier than Huaqing Palace is He Zhaorong.

She is young, and although she has also learned to feed at home, the He family's one-third of an acre of land cannot be compared with the palace.

Fortunately, Sun Zhaoyi had set the rules before, and He Zhaorong only had to do it.

When encountering days like the palace case, He Zhaorong will inevitably be a little flustered.

She can also be calm, and when she encounters something she doesn't understand, she only takes the booklet and asks Mrs. Lanxiang.

Mrs. Lanxiang liked her gentleness and modesty, and praised her several times in front of Empress Dowager Xu.

Empress Dowager Xu held Xiao Jianbao, the ninth prince, in her arms, teasing him, and nodding her head incessantly, "Okay, I know you like her, but don't praise her without a mouth, praise her so that her tail is upturned to the sky, and it won't be good for you to work when you turn back." ”

Mrs. Lanxiang shook her mouth and smiled, "If it's not the concubine who wants to hold her, it's really He Zhaorong who is annoying." ”

He Zhaorong's face flushed with shame, "Madame's praise is false." ”

Empress Dowager Xu handed the ninth prince to the nurse, wiped her hands, and said, "Don't be modest." You can afford the compliment. ”

He Zhaorong bowed down again, and his every move was not only in line with the etiquette, but also amiable to look at.

Empress Dowager Xu became more and more satisfied, "Sit down, I'm calling you here today to ask about Sun Zhaoyi's posthumous affairs." ”
