Chapter Ninety-Two: The Battle for the Throne

On the day of the Morning Flower Festival, someone fell into the water and died, and for a time it became a private conversation after dinner in Kyoto.

The Lou family carefully asked their children about the specific matters of that night, and finally determined that there was no frame-up, just a simple overboard incident, maybe Lou Xinyue was unprepared and accidentally fell into the river, just because of a moment of entanglement and delayed the time to save people, this person died.

The matter was revealed like this, and the Lou family was not dissatisfied, firstly, because the emperor and Concubine De had already given compensation, and secondly, the emperor had also punished the second prince, and thirty lashes were already considered a severe punishment, and the ninth prince Xiao Yujin was not well now.

After stopping the coffin for seven days, it was about to be mourned, Qingzhi was dressed in sackcloth, and followed Lou Xinyue's coffin out of the city, watching her buried in the soil, tears couldn't help but flow out, and she was sad for Lou Xinyue in her heart.

"Miss, the slave will definitely help you tell that person your thoughts, so that Miss will not have regrets." Qingzhi burned all the paper money in the bamboo basket, got up and walked back with determination.

After half a month, Kyoto gradually returned to its former state, people had a new after-dinner conversation, the girl who fell into the water during the morning flower festival has become a thing of the past, and a story is not interesting after chewing repeatedly in the mouth for a long time.

Xiao Yuhuai was beaten thirty times, and it took half a month to barely get better, but the Nine Emperor Princes never got better, and the news gradually spread in the palace that the Nine Emperor Princes would not survive for a few days.

"Who cursed my emperor!" Concubine De heard the palace maid's reply, and directly threw the tea cup in her hand.

Xiao Yuhuai came in from the outside, looking at the tense atmosphere inside, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

"What are you doing here?" Concubine De didn't have a good face at Xiao Yuhuai, "You get out of the palace!" ”

Xiao Yuhuai knew that the concubine was blaming herself for not protecting her younger brother, but he also had a hard time, and the death of Miss Lou Si was also blamed on himself, as well as Xiao Jiu......

Until now, Xiao Yuhuai didn't understand why Xiao Jiu pushed him, and he reflexively pulled him into the river at that time.

Xiao Jiu wants to harm himself? Xiao Yuhuai immediately denied this idea, he and Xiao Jiu are brothers, and the relationship is also very good, although sometimes Xiao Jiu has some things that are difficult for people to understand, but it is definitely not to the point of framing himself.

Looking at Concubine De's appearance, Xiao Yuhuai knew that she had not lost her breath, and finally had to go back, and went to see Xiao Jiu again, her small body was lying on the bed, her face was as pale as paper, and she muttered a few words from time to time, and Xiao Yuhuai couldn't hear what she said.

Originally, I was still angry in my heart, but when I saw him like this, I was not angry, "Stinky boy, get better quickly!" ”

All kinds of medicines have been used, but Xiao Yujin just hasn't seen any improvement, she has a fever again and again, and she has always been confused, and she hasn't even been awake once.

The imperial doctors were helpless, and in the end, the emperor issued a list, as long as Xiao Yujin could be cured, there would be a heavy reward, and there were also many folk doctors who tried it but had no effect.

After a long time, even Concubine De herself was desperate, and at this time, there were such rumors among the people, saying that the dead Miss Lou Si was unwilling, and her soul was entangled with the young Nine Emperors.

For a while, rumors arose, and Concubine De begged the queen to find the master of Xiangguo Temple to do a ritual, but in the end, of course, it had no effect at all.

"Amitabha, the deceased's wish has not been fulfilled, so it disturbed the soul of the Nine Emperor Princes." This is how the respected master explained.

"Does the master have a solution?" Concubine De watched her youngest son's illness getting worse day by day, and she was really sad.

The master recited Amitabha, "If the wish of the deceased is fulfilled, the soul of the Nine Emperor Princes will naturally be stable." ”

"What does the master mean ......," Concubine De frowned.

The deceased...... Pointing to the dead Lou Xinyue, Concubine De secretly cursed this woman in her heart, this person died and finally harmed her Xiao Jiu.

With the master's instructions, the Lou family ushered in the incomparably noble Concubine De Niangniang and the second prince Xiao Yuhuai.

"Do you know what Miss Lou Si has unfulfilled wishes?" Concubine De didn't care about her identity for Xiao Yujin, like the emperor begged for permission to leave the palace in person.

Miss Lou and Lou Xinyue are not very familiar with each other, not to mention that Lou Xinyue died suddenly, how did everyone know what her unfulfilled wish was.

"Why don't you ask Miss Four's maid!" Lin Yinru, who was standing behind, suddenly spoke.

Concubine De suddenly fell her gaze on Lin Yinru, who was dressed in white, and then retracted her gaze, "What about Miss Lou's maid?" ”

"All the maids and servants who have served the fourth lady have all been called!"

Concubine De glanced at Mrs. Lou who was sitting below, she was extremely unhappy, and couldn't help but sarcastically, "Mrs. Lou is really good at governing the family, and she doesn't even know her own sisters' wishes, and she has to interrogate her subordinates." ”

Mrs. Lou's face was pale, her expression was a little ugly, no lady in the main room loved concubines, and she had never treated those children badly, Concubine De was now saying this in front of everyone.

Concubine De didn't speak for Lou Xinyue, she was just in a bad mood, everyone in the Lou family was blacklisted by her, if it weren't for Xiao Jiu, she wouldn't come!

There is an old lady in the building, and Concubine De is always too difficult to say.

Soon, all the maids and servants who had been waiting for the new moon had gathered outside, and the palace maids and eunuchs around Concubine De had been ordered to interrogate them carefully, but there was still no useful news at all.

"Rubbish!" Concubine De is really angry now, and finally has a little hope, but now she is cut off on such a trivial matter.

"Mother's anger!"

"The big girl next to Miss Fourth is not here!"

Concubine De's eyes narrowed slightly, and her long nails grabbed the corner of the table at her hand, leaving a scratch, "Come and talk back!" ”

Lin Yinru, who was dressed in white, stood up, came to Concubine De and knelt down, "The courtier Lin Yinru has seen Concubine De Niangniang and the second prince!" ”

"Why isn't Miss Lou Si's eldest maid here?" These words were not only for Lin Yinru, but also for everyone present.

"Back to Niangniang, the eldest girl Qingzhi next to the fourth miss should have left the house and went outside the city to sweep the grave of the fourth miss." Lin Yinru's answer was so hot that everyone present showed a look of surprise.

Mrs. Lou took a sip of tea and couldn't help but glance at her granddaughter.

Everyone had different thoughts, Lin Yinru's eyebrows and eyes were lowered, so that people couldn't see her expression clearly, but Concubine De left a good impression on this well-behaved girl, and talked to her while someone was looking for Qingzhi.

"Your surname is Lin? Is it a relative of the Lou family? ”

This sentence made Lin Yinru a little embarrassed and uncomfortable, although she lived in the Lou family temporarily, her own family background was not bad, but Concubine De's words were ......

"It's the child of the little daughter of the old body!" The old lady helped back the question.

"I see!" Concubine De didn't ask much, but she just paid attention to it.
