Chapter 336 of the List of Difficult Chapters (Part I)
Early the next morning, the two carriages of the Xue family left the house. The second wife, the third wife, and the fourth wife Xue were sent to the outside of the Vertical Gate. waited until the carriage was out of the alley and could not be seen, and then they went back.
Second Mrs. Xue curled her lips as she walked, and entered the palace to see the Queen Mother, this is something that no number of people want to ask for, it is natural for the sister-in-law and Rong Hua to go with the old lady, Jing Chu is different, there is no decree on her body, but she can still be looked down upon by the Queen Mother...... The more the second wife thinks about it, the more proud she becomes, and if she goes on like this, she still worries that Mingli has no good future?
Ren Jingchu was nervously holding the handkerchief in the carriage, her heart was flustered, and she raised her head to look at Rong Hua, only to see that Rong Hua was just sitting there, looking calm and not knowing what he was thinking. As if sensing that someone was looking at her, Rong Hua raised her head, and Ren Jingchu immediately looked away. As if nothing had happened, he looked at the window next to the carriage that was covered by green gauze and bamboo curtains.
Ren Jingchu let out a long breath. Even Tao Ronghua is not afraid, she has nothing to panic about, but she just entered the palace, she didn't hear her mother say it, the grandmother of the Xue family told her again last night, as long as she remembered all kinds of etiquette clearly.
Ren Jingchu thought for a while, cleared her throat and then asked Rong Hua, "How many times have you entered the palace?" ”
opened his mouth to ask coldly, Rong Hua said: "I don't remember, there have been three or four times." …”
Ren Jingchu said again: "What is it like in the palace?" How do you cry when you cry for mourning? Let's get on our knees and shed tears together? How long is that going to cry? ", Crying and mourning are also dominated by the inner women below Concubine Hua, they are just external women as foils, Mother Li has said very clearly last night, as for what the palace is like, how can she respond to such a question?
Unable to hear Rong Hua speak, Ren Jingchu said again: "The old lady is old, and her health is not good, she really has to kneel in the hall for a long time, so what can I do?" …”
Rong Hua looked sideways at Ren Jingchu, the first time he entered the palace, Ren Jingchu really had no confidence, otherwise with Ren Jingchu's temperament, he was "reluctant to talk to her" The old lady was unwell. The Queen Mother should be extra gracious and invite the old lady to rest beside her. "Second Mrs. Xue must have instructed Ren Jingchu to let Ren Jingchu follow the old lady.
Ren Jingchu glanced at Rong Hua's belly, Rong Hua was pregnant, could she kneel for a day? Thinking of this, her heart suddenly became happy again, don't look at Tao Ronghua pretending to be calm and really entering the palace when Tao Ronghua cried. She is different, since she is a foreign woman, her mother will inevitably come, with her mother present, she will follow behind, and her mother will always protect her everywhere.
The carriage arrived outside the palace gate. Rong Hua stretched out his hand to lift the curtain a little, and there were already many foreign women getting off here. The emperor really wants to hold a funeral for Concubine Hua.
Rong Hua glanced at Jinxiu Jinxiu and jumped out of the car first to help Rong Hua down, Rong Hua got out of the car and immediately stepped forward to see Mrs. Xue.
Mrs. Xue was also nervous, for fear that the old lady would feel uncomfortable after being so tired.
Old Madam Xue waved her hand, "It's okay, it's still important to enter the palace...
Everyone waited to hand the sign into the palace, and Ren Jingchu dragged left and right from time to time. There was almost silence in front of the palace gate, and the ladies who came up to salute Mrs. Xue also lowered their voices to greet Mrs. Xue and nodded kindly, and everyone said a few words of greeting, and did not dare to say anything else.
The forbidden palace is strict, and everyone is here to cry and mourn, who dares to make a rash move.
The funeral of the eighth prince has not been completely completed, and Concubine Hua died suddenly, just thinking about the relationship between these two things makes people feel a biting coldness.
Mrs. Xue handed the sign of the Xue family, and there were palace people to guide the sedan chair before getting on the sedan chair. Suddenly, hearing a commotion in front of the palace, several people turned their heads to look over, only to see the foreign women in front of the palace dodging to both sides. Let a few people come, and the one who walked in front was Concubine Hua's sister, Mrs. Zhao.
No wonder everyone avoided the plague, it turned out that the people of the Cai family had arrived, and the scenery before the Cai family fell so sad in a blink of an eye.
The sedan chair stopped outside the gate of the inner palace, and everyone changed their filial piety clothes, so that the inner servant took it to Xianfu Palace.
Xianfu Palace is already covered in silver. Outside the hall, the monks preside over the recitation of the transcendent scriptures.
The outer women are listed according to the etiquette system, "waiting for the inner women to enter the palace gate to salute."
Rong Hua stood beside the old lady, bowing his head slightly to listen to the attendant inside. The news revealed in the palace is much more accurate than what is heard outside, what should I do about Concubine Hua's funeral? The ladies in the palace are more eary and eye-catching than them, and you can guess as long as you look at the performance of the ladies and girls.
The footsteps came from far and near, and I only heard the waiter say: "Concubine Hui, Concubine Xian, Concubine Li, ...... Niang." ”
Rong Hua's heart tightened, and he raised his head slightly, and everyone in the foreign wife couldn't help but glance at each other.
Before Concubine Hua was demoted, she was the only one from the concubine to the imperial concubine, and now she is demoted to Concubine Hua. In terms of grade, it is not as good as Concubine Hui, Concubine Xian, and Concubine Li, but now even these ladies have come to salute in person, and Concubine Hua is obviously going to be buried as a royal concubine.
Rong Hua pondered, only to hear the waiter say again, "Concubine Jing has arrived." ”
Rong Hua quickly raised his head. Surrounded by palace people, a noble man wearing filial piety clothes slowly dragged into the gate of Xianfu Palace. Concubine Jing has changed after not seeing her for a few years. Although the fat powder is not applied, "it is still bright and shining, and it is difficult to hide the brilliance when standing in the middle of the crowd." There are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and it is impossible for Concubine Jing to defeat Concubine Hua with this gesture alone, and she is loved by thousands of people.
Rong Hua slowly lowered her head, she knew that Mrs. Tao's niece was not as generous as she looked. But she didn't expect this person to hurt her, it was such negligence that finally made her die tragically in the hands of the eldest wife, Yanhua mentioned the large silver ticket in the crested hairpin in front of her, and the eldest lady thought that she had stolen the silver ticket, and was afraid that the matter of stealing her husband's money to supplement her mother's family would be exposed, so she fanned the flames in front of Tao Zhengan and got rid of her as a thorn in her side.
The person who really took the silver ticket and blamed her must be Concubine Jing. It is difficult to move an inch without silver in the palace, how easy it is to see the emperor and talk, Concubine Jing knows that she is going to be sent to the palace, and she will definitely try her best to find a way to get it. As long as you think about the actions of your uncle and uncle's wife, you can know Concubine Jing's ability.
After the inner woman, the outer woman came forward one after another, after the ceremony, everyone slowly knelt on both sides of the mourning hall, Lord Xue and Rong Hua helped Mrs. Xue to the side, and was about to find a cushion to kneel, when an inner servant came and said: "Princess Heshuo, Duchess Anguo, Mrs. Wu Muhou, Grandma Xue, please come with me......,。。
The attendant stepped forward to speak, and everyone in the mourning hall looked at Old Madam Xue one after another.
Ren Jingchu was looking for Mrs. Ren in the crowd, and finally saw Mrs. Ren kneeling opposite, and was about to step forward to talk to her mother, but the waiter came with such a will, and couldn't help showing a disappointed expression.
Mrs. Xue and Rong Hua had already accompanied Mrs. Xue forward, and Ren Jingchu saw Mrs. Ren nodding to her, so she reluctantly followed Mrs. Xue out of the mourning hall after three steps and one turn.
As soon as the daughters of the Xue family came out of the mourning hall, the attendants signaled that the auspicious time had arrived, and the kneeling crowd suddenly burst into tears.
Mrs. Zhao took out a handkerchief and cried on the ground for a while, and the Cai family brought news, "The men in the family are bowing outside... As he spoke, his face became ugly. "Others just like this, but the emperor summoned Xuan Huan into the palace."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao's eyes were black and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, there were Cai family members around her, and everyone rubbed their chests and comforted them, which made Mrs. Zhao relieved.
How could the emperor spread Xuanhuan into the palace at this time? Isn't it going to be condemned again...... Mrs. Zhao was uneasy, and a waiter came to her and said, "Mrs. Zhao." The Queen Mother passed you over. …”
Mrs. Zhao raised her head to look at the waiter, who didn't have any special expression on his face, only said lightly: "Mrs. Zhao let's go, the queen mother is still waiting...
Mrs. Zhao's heart was still tightly clutched, and her whole body was numb and weak, and it took a long time to support her to get up.
The chamberlain glanced at Mrs. Zhao, turned around and walked out, and Mrs. Zhao had to grit her teeth and follow. She is no longer a foreign woman, how could the Queen Mother summon her? Mrs. Zhao suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, first Emperor Xuanhuan summoned her, and now she went to the Empress Dowager to reply...... All the talented people in the mourning hall were quietly peeking at her, as if she was about to come to a catastrophe.
Mrs. Zhao followed the chamberlain through several palace gates before entering a palace, which was not the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace.
The inner attendant stopped, Mrs. Zhao stepped into the hall by herself, Mrs. Zhao didn't know what to do next, the door of the palace behind her suddenly closed, Mrs. Zhao shook her whole person, and a voice suddenly came not far in front of her, "Mrs. Zhao, I came to ask you a few words on the order of the Queen Mother. , Mrs. Zhao saw a palace man in a blue palace dress standing there not far away.
The palace man didn't have the slightest smile on his face, "A pair of eyes stared at her without blinking." Mrs. Zhao's legs were weak and she suddenly fell to her knees, "Auntie...... Excuse me........."
"What did Concubine Hua say when she summoned you to the dormitory before she died? You have to tell the truth. Mrs. Zhao's eyes widened suddenly. Why did the news that Xuan Huan was summoned by the emperor reach her ears so quickly? Why was she brought in for questioning as soon as she found out? Mrs. Zhao suddenly understood. Let her know the news of the emperor's summons to Xuan Huan. is to ask her to tell the truth, otherwise she and Xuan Huan will not be able to walk out of the palace safe and sound today.
Mrs. Zhao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when she thought about this. The whole person suddenly collapsed on the ground. Concubine Hua chose such a path of no return for the sake of the Nine Emperor Princes, if she gave all of this, don't say that Concubine Hua died in vain, and the Nine Emperor Princes and the Cai family have no hope.
