Chapter 339: The Death of Concubine Ru

As soon as Fang Shangshu's words came out, all the ministers whispered one after another, Chu Lixue couldn't help but secretly say in her heart, this Fang Shangshu is really an old fox, saying that he likes to go out of the palace late at night, doesn't that mean that he doesn't keep women's morals? It's disgusting. But where could Chu Lixue be defeated with a few sarcastic words?

Immediately, Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled: "Don't you know that Fang Shangshu doesn't know that the restaurants and teahouses in this Cloud City are all opened by this palace, and that Xin Yaxuan, this palace is also half the boss, Xin Yaxuan receives the news very quickly, and the matter of Ling Gongzi is naturally very easy to know." ”

Hearing this, Fang Shangshu was almost angry, this queen is really sharp-toothed, how many of the daughters of such courtiers can be her opponents, and even the previous queen mother, can't she only live a hard life in the cold palace now?

Nangong Yihan drove the expedition in person, and naturally Han Jiang and Li Feng accompanied him, Chu Lixue returned to the days when she was bored guarding the huge queen.

On this day, Chu Lixue was drinking peach blossoms in the courtyard with Ning Xiang and the other three, but it was a pity to have wine and no food. Ning Xiang and Wanyue went to the imperial dining room to get the ingredients, and on the way back to the palace, they heard a group of little palace maids whispering.

After hearing the chatting content of those little palace maids, Ning Xiang and Wanyue looked at each other, and immediately trotted all the way back to Fengluan Palace. Seeing the two of them panting, Rean Xue couldn't help but quip, "What's wrong?" Could it be that the two of you went to the imperial dining room and were frightened by the flattery of those little eunuchs? ”

"Of course not." The waning moon whitened the remnant snow and said. Immediately, she walked quickly to Chu Lixue's side, whispered a few words in her ear, and heard Wanyue say this, Chu Lixue's face was shocked, she really didn't expect that there would be such a thing in the harem, if it was spread, it would definitely be a scandal of the royal family.

"Wanyue, are you sure you and Ning Xiang heard it clearly?" Chu Lixue frowned.

"Yes, Niangniang, if Niangniang has some suspicions, the slave maid will take advantage of the night to investigate again, and wait until there is full evidence before acting." Wanyue said in a deep voice.

It was night, and the waning moon set off from Fengluan Palace in a night robe and jumped a few times in a row, passing through the roofs of various palaces, and finally arrived at a more secluded place in the palace.

Cold Palace, in fact, there is no specific cold palace in any dynasty. The cold palace can be said to be circled at any time, for example, if a concubine does something wrong, then the place where she lives will be taken care of, and at the same time, it will become a cold palace.

It's just that after Nangong Anyi died, all the concubines left behind in his harem moved to Jing'an Garden in the west of the palace, and next door to this Jing'an Garden was Yong'an Palace, where Emperor Taizu's favorite concubine Rufei was imprisoned.

Yong'an Palace originally meant eternal peace, but since Concubine Ru was locked up here and hanged herself, it has become a place for everyone to avoid taboos. And what Wanyue is going to stare at tonight is this long-vacant Yong'an Palace.

Although this Yong'an Palace is a cold palace, but it has been lit with an ever-bright lamp, it is said that the concubine died in vain, and the Taoist priest said that the lantern should be lit in the palace in order to let the soul of the concubine rest in peace. It's also strange to say, since the Changming lantern was lit, Yong'an Palace has really been much more peaceful, even so, no one dares to get close to this place anymore, and over time this place has become a recognized cold palace.

In the middle of the night, the waning moon stared at the Yong'an Palace without movement, and a gust of wind blew, blowing away a trace of sleepiness of the waning moon. Wanyue blinked vigorously on the roof, and at this time, a figure hurriedly approached the Yong'an Palace.

Sure enough, it doesn't seem to be groundless, but she can't be happy too early, what if this is a trap set by someone else for their mother? You have to be cautious.

Wanyue flew into the courtyard, hooked the pillars under the eaves of the house with both feet, and looked in through the tattered window lattice, which seemed to be waiting very anxiously, at this moment, only heard a creak, the bed board was lifted, and a man came out of it, this man Wanyue is all too familiar, as soon as the man appeared, the figure of Fang Cai quickly pounced.

"I thought you wouldn't be able to come." The woman said softly.

"How can it be, this king is now Taoguang Yangxuan, Yihan's kid is still too tender, it's just that you are pitiful that he is locked up here and suffers."

"It's nothing, for the sake of our plan, it's nothing for me to suffer this little, it's just that although Nangong Yihan is not in the palace, that slut is still there." The woman gritted her teeth.

"Wanrou, don't worry, just let them be proud first, doesn't Nangong Yihan want to dominate the world? Then let him do it, and when he rules the world, this king will take his place, so why not? ”

"Well, it's still your foresight, don't worry, I'm trying not to conflict with that slut in the palace now, so that the day we should meet inside and outside."

Gentle? It turned out that this woman who came here late at night in a cloak was the former Queen Mother Bai Wanrou, she should have thought that the third watch had a private meeting with King Jing here in the middle of the night, and I am afraid that there is only this former Queen Mother.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the sound of conversation coming from inside again, "Wanrou, is there anything important that you are in such a hurry to come to me so late?" Whatever it is, let's ...... first."

"Lord, don't be, I'm pregnant." Bai Wanrou said shyly.

Hearing this, the waning moon almost fell, what? This White Queen Mother is actually pregnant? Then, the child in her womb must be the king's. Fortunately, she is highly trained.

"What? Are you pregnant? But sure? King Jing said with joy on his face.

"Well, I've given you two children, what else is there not to know? Besides, I haven't sent a monthly letter for two months, don't I just have a child? Bai Wan said softly.

"Great, this child is really timely, it seems that our hard work is not in vain, when our child is born, I will make him the prince, after all, this country is still mine." After finishing speaking, King Jing laughed unscrupulously.

"Lord Wang, just be quiet, although this is a cold palace, you still have to be careful that the wall has ears."

"You can rest assured, this Yong'an Palace, but no one will come in a place where the living are not allowed to enter, so you can rest assured."

"Speaking of which, I really have to thank that Concubine Ru, if she hadn't died, I wouldn't have become the queen mother." Bai Wanrou said with some regret.

Speaking of which, the original concubine was really liked by the emperor, and the concubine also took care of her soon after entering the palace, but it was a pity that the concubine hanged herself while pregnant with a child, which made the emperor very angry, but after checking for a long time, there was no clue, and then the Yong'an Palace tasted the cry of the woman and the cry of the baby.

Everyone in the palace is rumoring that it was the unjust death of the concubine, and she came to ask for her life with her child. For a while, the people in the palace were panicked, and in the end, there was still a Taoist priest who was here to get peace after the fact.

"What are you talking about, like a concubine...... She can only blame her for her bad life. Okay, you go back and have a good rest, I'm going to go back first, you're pregnant, take care of yourself. After speaking, King Jing went into the secret passage of the bed and left.

Bai Wanrou arranged the cloak and left the Yong'an Palace alone with the lantern. Back in the Meditation Garden, the lights in each house had been extinguished, and it seemed that she had quietly left, and no one had noticed that as long as she returned to her own house, she would be unaware.

Wanyue followed all the way and saw that Bai Wanrou had returned to her room, and then returned to Fengluan Palace. Unexpectedly, Chu Lixue hadn't rested yet, and had been waiting in her room.

It just so happened that Wanyue was on duty again tonight, and Wanyue quietly stepped forward to push open the door, and saw that Chu Lixue was still reading, and then turned around and entered the house and closed the door again.

"Mother, it's so late, why don't you rest."

"You haven't come back yet, how can I sleep soundly. Although it's already summer, I've been busy for so long, let's have a cup of tea first. Chu Lixue lifted the teapot on the table and poured a full cup for Wanyue, and handed it to Wanyue.

Chu Lixue is usually very good to Wanyue and the others, and even often eats at the same table with them, because of this, Wanyue does not feel any discomfort.

Wanyue listened to it outside Yong'an Palace for so long, but she was also a little thirsty, but the cup of hot tea that Chu Lixue handed her was very timely. Wanyue told Chu Lixue everything she heard and saw outside the Yong'an Palace.

After listening to Wanyue's narration, Chu Lixue bowed slightly, it seems that this Bai Wanrou and King Jing are still not giving up, since they have already started to act, then she will not sit still and wait for death.

Thinking of this, Chu Lixue thought about it, and from the conversation between the two, it could be heard that Bai Wanrou still had some sympathy for Concubine Naru, but King Jing was a little perfunctory. Could it be that he had something to do with the death of the concubine?

Thinking of the Yong'an Palace where Concubine Ru lives there is also a secret passage, will Concubine Ru be killed because she knows the secret of the secret passage? Or, what about King Jing sneaking into the palace through a secret passage and being discovered by Concubine Ru, and King Jing killed Concubine Ru?

If the concubine is pregnant, she naturally doesn't want the child in her womb to pass away without being born at a glance, and it is said that pregnant women are very sacred, and if the pregnant woman dies, she will definitely turn into a ghost.

"Mother, do you think there's anything wrong?" Wanyue asked softly.

"Well, yes, you go and check to see if anyone knows how Concubine Ru died back then, maybe Concubine Ru's death can give us some help." Chu Lixue said lightly.

"Okay, Niangniang, please rest assured, the slave will definitely find out about this matter and return it to Niangniang." Wanyue said respectfully.

The next day, early in the morning, the waning moon went around the palace to investigate the events of the year.
