Xiang Xiang saw that the emperor's gaze softened, his hand was no longer struggling to make marks on the ground, but stretched out to Concubine Xian, but he couldn't say anything, a miserable low roar came out of his throat, and then his head fell heavily, and the red blood continued to spread on the ground, there was no doubt that the emperor was dead.

Xiangxiang struggled to pick up Concubine Xian, but the angry person said to her: "Change into clean clothes for me." ”

When Xiangxiang changed her clothes for her and saw the shocking scars on her body, she understood why Concubine Xian insisted on it, because she was afraid that Qi Hui would come back and see her, and she didn't want her son to know that she was hurt.

Lying flat on the bed again, Concubine Xian no longer had the strength to open her eyes again, originally for her, there was no difference between opening her eyes and not, but she would always open her eyes and pretend that she could see it, but at this moment, her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, she used all her strength in her hands, touched Xiangxiang's cheeks full of tears, and said angrily: "Silly child, you shouldn't run out." ”

Xiangxiang choked up and couldn't speak, holding her mother's hand tightly, Concubine Xian carefully touched her face, and said: "Xiangxiang, even this sin is over, my mother is really careless, my mother waited for twenty years to say this to him, and finally said it." ”

"Xiangxiang." Xiangxiang felt that the hand she was holding sank down, but slowly touched her fingers to the skin on her face as if she tried her best, "The biggest regret in my mother's life is that I can't see how beautiful my daughter-in-law is." ”

"Mother......

The person on the couch did not respond, his fingers left Xiangxiang's cheek, and he was completely supported by Xiangxiang without strength, and as soon as she let go, her thin hand fell on the bed. Xiangxiang's mind was blank, kneeling on the ground and staring blankly at her mother who was sleeping but would never wake up, and the strong bloody smell in the room did not stimulate her.

I don't know how long it took, she finally stood up, covered her mother with a quilt, said a few words before she went to bed as before, carefully put down the tent, and suddenly her arm was pulled, and the person behind her hurriedly said: "Xiangxiang, let's go immediately." ”

It was Shifeng who climbed over the wall and entered the cold palace, he observed for a long time, first saw the prince leave, and when he got close to the palace wall, he found that there seemed to be no movement inside, and saw that the guards in front of the door had no intention of breaking in, so he turned his heart over the wall and entered, and at first glance saw the emperor falling in blood, Shifeng felt that his eyes were black, but he saw that Xiangxiang was fine, and immediately decided to take her away.

Xiangxiang asked him with a sluggish expression: "Is it okay to take my mother with you?" ”

Shi Feng's heart was in turmoil, he stretched out his hand to probe between the mother's snorts, there was no life, he endured the severe pain, pulled Xiangxiang and said, "I can only take you alone." ”

"Okay, I'll go with you." Unexpectedly, Xiangxiang did not entangle, but walked one step faster than Shifeng, Shifeng immediately woke up from his grief, took Xiangxiang over the high wall, and walked forward in the dark one by one, about to approach the palace gate, and when he was about to leave the imperial city, a team of guards came from afar, and Shifeng had to take Xiangxiang to stick in the corner of the wall in the dark.

He thought about it, if the guards found his traces, he would leave the palace with a palace maid in the name of his father. Fortunately, no one came to interrogate, and Shi Feng suddenly wanted to ask at this moment: "Is the emperor dead?" ”

Xiang Xiang nodded indifferently.

Shi Feng asked, "You killed it?" ”

Xiangxiang shook his head: "It was killed by my mother."

Shi Feng swallowed his saliva, how could the person who was about to die be able to kill the burly emperor? The emperor fell in a pool of blood, and his heart seemed to have something inserted, how much strength did it take to insert it? But he didn't know that the little thing Qi Hui took from Jian Feng contained the most ferocious mechanism of the Mu family, and the power of the sharp cone was enough to pierce the man's body closely, and Concubine Xian had no strength, but when the emperor dragged her over, she found the emperor's body and hugged her.

She won't be like Xiangxiang, always forgetting how to open the mechanism, she has the blood of the Mu family in her body, this is their Mu family's thing.

Shifeng escaped from the palace with Xiangxiang, only to be on the front and back, and the palace was suddenly under martial law. He heard the death knell coming from the palace, but he couldn't care about it so much, and now he had to take Xiangxiang away from afar. But the news of the emperor's death will definitely spread to the family, and Shifeng is now taking Xiangxiang back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, in case he is discovered by his father or brothers, it will not be clear. What's more, the emperor died suddenly, what kind of changes will happen to the royal family next, he can't predict, he still has to stand with his father and protect the Pang family together.

But he already regretted leaving Xiangxiang and Concubine Xian to go to the Tai Hospital to find someone, and now he must send Xiangxiang to a foolproof safe place, Pang Mansion is not suitable, and it is not appropriate to disturb the Closed Moon Pavilion at this time, Shi Feng hesitated again and again, and took Xiang Xiang to sneak into Jian Mansion, he only knew Jian Feng's residence, and the people in Jian Mansion seemed to have received the news of the emperor's death, and people kept getting up and coming out, Shi Feng finally sent Xiang Xiang to Jian Feng, and said: "I must go back immediately, Xiang Xiang is handed over to you." ”

Jian Feng didn't say anything, and went straight to his cousin's residence with Xiangxiang. When Shen Yan heard that the emperor was dead, her heart was pounding, but Xiangxiang sat motionless and didn't say anything, Shen Yan saw that her clothes were ragged and stained with a little blood, so she found her clothes and gave them to her, and said softly: "I changed my clothes, someone came in after a while, and it was strange to see it." ”

Xiangxiang's body shook, took Mr. 's clothes, looked around, and Shen Yan said, "Just change it here, I'll guard the door." ”

Guarding the door, with her back to Xiangxiang, hearing the movement of her changing clothes, Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a faint sound of people walking outside the door, and it could be seen that the people from Jian's Mansion were also going to enter the palace. Is the emperor dead, the brutal king is finally dead, what kind of new situation will the imperial court and the country usher in? Qi Hui their ideals......

"Sir."

Xiangxiang suddenly spoke, Shen Yan hurriedly turned around to look, and saw that she was already dressed neatly, and her clothes fit quite well on her, Xiangxiang's face was pale, and she compared the plain white sleeves, she asked: "I'm here, can Qi Hui find me?" ”

Shen Yan's heart sank: "I must be able to, Jian Feng will arrange it, and when I find the Second Highness......"

"That's good." Xiangxiang nodded, sat down again, and muttered, "I'm afraid he won't find me." ”

Shen Yan stepped forward and touched Xiangxiang's cold hand, she asked with concern, "Are you cold?" I'll get you another garment. But hot tears fell on the back of her hand, Shen Yan looked helplessly at the heartbroken person, she suddenly thought, is it the virtuous concubine too?

But Xiangxiang suddenly pounced on her, and her whole body pressed down, Shen Yan panicked, and used all her strength to move Xiangxiang to the bed, she stayed by the bed, and it was the first time she saw someone fainting, and she was still crying.

Shen Yan felt at the moment that the pain she had endured in the past few years was really nothing. Xiangxiang, a girl, was inexplicably involved in right and wrong, and experienced life and death, but she didn't even have a place to stay, she was sent back and forth, and it was not her home anywhere.

When Qi Hui rushed desperately to the capital, he rushed to the city gate on a fast horse, it was already close to noon the next day, and all the gates of the capital were on guard, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at the moment, but unexpectedly, almost everyone was waiting for Qi Hui's arrival. When the soldiers defending the city saw him from afar, they lowered the drawbridge, opened the gate, and stepped forward and said, "The emperor has an order to welcome His Royal Highness II into the palace." ”

"Your Majesty?" Qi Hui's eyebrows trembled, he suddenly found that there was a white paper lantern hanging on the city gate, and he knew that this emperor was no longer the other emperor. He returned to the palace all the way unimpeded, the prince was waiting for him in front of the cold palace gate, the emperor's body had already been removed, he received news in the East Palace last night that the emperor had been killed, and immediately let everyone control the imperial city, and captured Concubine Li and the three princes.

"The mother walked peacefully." The prince said, "When I came, the first emperor fell in a pool of blood, with a sharp cone stuck in his back, and the mother lay there peacefully, not knowing who killed ......."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, can you let me stay alone with my mother for a while." Qi Hui knew that he couldn't help himself now, the prince made his existence public, he didn't have to live in the dark anymore, but his mother was gone. The tent fluttered slightly, as if Xiangxiang had put it down on weekdays, and he saw that the door of the cabinet was open, and he guessed that Xiangxiang might have been here before.

In addition to the dazzling blood stains on the ground, there were also torn clothes, Qi Hui remembered the water-colored satin, which was the dance clothes that Xiangxiang made for himself. There was also a whip wilting aside, as if it had lost its terrifying momentum like its former owner, what the hell was going on, why did the emperor come here with a whip? Was Xiangxiang discovered by him, did he violate Xiangxiang? My mother was lying on the bed so peacefully, and someone cleaned it up for her afterwards?

"I haven't let my mother be touched." The prince said, "Is it someone you know who took care of Niangniang?" ”

The prince's eyes were staring closely at the changes in Qi Hui's eyes, but he didn't see anything, and he couldn't see any clues related to Xiangxiang, the reason why he let people stay as they were and didn't move, even if they were misunderstood by Qi Hui, he also hoped that Qi Hui would say something after seeing all this, in an uncontrollable mood. But there was nothing, Qi Hui just walked towards his mother and stared at the remains quietly.

"Then you stay by yourself for a while, or bury the mother earlier, I have instructed the Ministry of Rites to arrange a funeral for the mother, and the mother will be buried in a beautiful manner." As he spoke, the prince walked out of the room, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, for there was still much to do for him.

Suddenly, his face was touched by something cold, and the prince looked up, and the white snowflakes were falling, the first snow of the winter.

There was movement in the door, the prince turned around, and saw Qi Hui picking up Concubine Xian steadily, he walked out expressionlessly, and the prince unconsciously stepped aside, only to hear Qi Hui say: "I want to send my mother and leave." ”
