As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Although these wives and concubines of Prince Xi have improper status, their status is only a little higher than that of maids and maids, but after all, they are the women of Prince Xi.

In the shocked eyes of everyone, Xuanji said loudly: "If you have a place to go, please go back to the room to pack your things, in the evening, I will arrange a carriage and horse to send you off, and if you have nowhere to go, stay in the hall, and then go back to prepare after I register, and I will send you out of Beijing tomorrow at the latest." ”

Everything was arranged, Xuanji looked at the number of people recorded on the paper, and said strangely: "Why are there only thirty-seven people?" Didn't you say there were thirty-eight? ”

More than a dozen concubines who stayed in the hall looked at each other, and one of the older ones said: "The other one is the biological mother of the former Pingyang prince, the side concubine Niang Mingyan......

Xuanji and Yi Qingyun glanced at each other, wasn't this side concubine the one who sent someone to hunt down Yi Qingyun and later killed her son?

This famous side concubine is in a very bad situation now, sitting unkempt in a remote courtyard in the palace, crying and laughing, crazy, and unable to see the shrewd shadow of the crowd.

Xuanji walked to the gate of the courtyard and heard her muttering: "Son, hehe, son, you are my mother's only baby!" Don't worry, your father won't be able to give birth to a second son, hahaha! You are obedient, and you will be the prince in the future. If your father becomes the emperor, let him make you the prince, hehe! Hee-hee! Niang can be the mother of the world, who dares to laugh at Niang's humble background, you will kill them all! ”

The housekeeper who led the way had been in the palace for many years, and when she saw this scene, she explained softly: "Soon after the death of the prince of Pingyang, the prince found out that the side concubine Niangniang had drugged his diet, causing the other ladies in the palace to be unable to get pregnant. ”

No wonder Prince Xi has a bunch of wives and so few children. Yi Qingyun's mother is not in the palace, and in terms of age, Xuanji is a lot younger than him, and then he came to Pingyang Shizi.

Xuanji suddenly thought that there was a gap of six or seven years between Yi Qingyun and herself, why didn't this Prince Xi have any other children? It is said that the son of the side concubine had not yet been born at that time, so he should not have drugged Prince Xi.

Thinking of his uncle's mention of the deal with Prince Xi at that time, it must have been Prince Xi's support in order to win Wan Suhe's support, and he didn't dare to let other women in the palace get pregnant before the princess, if it wasn't for the princess's death in childbirth, and she was a demented daughter, I'm afraid it would not be the turn of this side concubine to give birth.

These men and women are full of power, interests, and selfish desires, and what do they get in the end?

"Does this one have any relatives?" Xuanji pointed to Mingyan, who was sitting on the ground and laughing, and asked the female steward beside her.

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment and said, "The side concubine herself has a cousin who went to Longjiang Courtyard two years ago to do business, and she never came back. I heard that she did something wrong and was killed by the prince, and I have never heard that she has other relatives. ”

Longjiang? Two years ago?

Yi Xie and the two immediately thought of the overboard incident that year. Now it sounds like Mingyan probably sent her cousin to kill the county lord Ning Yue, but I don't know how Ning Yue, who was still a half-vegetative person at the time, provoked her.

Mingyan heard the human voice, looked up and saw the three people standing not far in front of her, suddenly her eyes shot a fanatical and hateful look, she jumped up and pounced on Xuanji, Yi Qingyun was next to Xuanji, where would she get her hand, stretched out her arm and grabbed Mingyan's right wrist to make a skill, she stood unsteadily, stumbled to the side and fell.

Yi Qingyun took Xuanji back two steps and scolded: "If you are crazy like this, you don't forget to harm people, it's really hopeless!" ”

Mingyan fell to the ground, she didn't have the strength to get up, after she lost her position, the concubines and servants who had been angry with her in the past would not let her feel better, there was often no meal, Prince Xi was assassinated last night, and no one would remember to bring her food.

Mingyan looked up at Yi Qingyun, babbling and crying, and said vaguely: "Lord, don't have a child who has a cigarette, Mingyan doesn't dare to fight with the princess, don't have a son who has a cigarette...... Woo woo, Mingyan is willing to do anything for you......"

Seeing Yi Qingyun half-hugging Xuanji's shoulder, with a protective posture, he became angry again, and laughed evilly: "Hehe, what if you are the princess, you haven't given birth to an idiot daughter, haha, don't worry, Mingyan is pregnant again, I must give birth to a chubby little son for you, do you hear?" Pingyang is calling your father, hahaha! ”

Mingyan said one sentence to the west frantically, vaguely all the ladies in the palace, you hurt me and I hurt you, Yi Qingyun and Xuanji were terrified when they heard it, and left the small courtyard in a hurry.

This side concubine is said to have lived a very beautiful life, and there must have been a lot of people who have offended, but it is inconvenient to place her and other concubines in one place, Xuanji thought about it and told the housekeeper to find a clean nunnery near the capital and give more sesame oil money for Mingyan to stay.

The housekeeper glanced at Xuanji deeply, and said in her heart: No wonder people outside say that the county lord is a heavenly daughter, if it is not a heavenly daughter, where would he be so charitable.

After a busy day, by the evening, the people in the palace had already left, and there were some left, leaving some to help take care of Prince Xi's funeral. Xuanji and Yi Qingyun changed into plain clothes, worshipped, and prepared to leave the city as soon as dawn, neither brother nor sister wanted to stay in this cold-blooded and ruthless place of right and wrong for a moment.

At this time, a eunuch came to the palace, and a decree was sent to the prince of Ning Yun and the lord of Ning Yue to enter the palace to meet him. The two glanced at each other, entering the palace at this time, who knows what will happen?!

Yi Qingyun stepped forward and said: "Our brothers and sisters want to guard the soul of our father, in order to fulfill the last bit of filial piety, please return to the emperor, wait for seven days of filial piety, and then enter the palace to meet him." ”

This is actually more rude, but the eunuch is not easy to refute, and he can't find a guard to escort people into the palace, so he has to pull down his face and return the court.

The eunuch went out with his front foot, and the county lord Ning Xue came with his back foot.

It is said that Prince Xi was assassinated, and the most suspicious ones are Prince Mu and Prince Xiang, both of whom are now trying their best to keep a low profile, stay in the mansion honestly, and dare not act rashly.

For a whole day, Prince Xi's Mansion was allowed to go out and not enter, and the spies of various factions in the capital were lurking near the Prince's Mansion, and the news heard from the family servants who left the mansion that Ning Yun Shizi and Ning Yue County Lord faced the death of the prince, and they did not cry or make trouble, but calmly released the house slaves, dismissed Prince Xi's concubines, and looked like they were ready to leave the capital, teaching people to find out the details.
