Chapter 246: Abandoning the Concubine

At that moment, Shaohua didn't know where she got the strength from, she pushed the other party hard, and actually pushed the other party to the ground. Perhaps sensing the other party's entity, Shaohua immediately stood with a pair of eyes and glared at him, holding his stomach with both hands.

Shaohua didn't know that in the eyes of the other party, his appearance was also a non-human and non-ghost existence. Her hair had already slipped and been pulled apart, her hands were bloody and blurred, and her fierce eyes were facing each other, each of them was guarding against each other, but she felt trembling.

"Who are you!" Although his voice sounded hoarse and dry, Shaohua was glad that he was not poisoned and dumb.

Holding back the fear in her heart, she wanted to pretend to be fierce, but her voice trembled slightly, revealing her panic. Shaohua thought to herself that she had slipped down from Empress Dowager He's bedroom, maybe this was just a dark room of imprisonment or a secret passage, but judging from the fact that someone was trapped with her, this place was more like a dark room.

Although when she found those pair of Ying Ying eyes, she was almost so frightened that her heart felt like it was going to jump out, especially when the other party's thin and powerful hand grabbed her neck, at that moment she thought she had really seen a ghost.

"Long live the Lord is really interested, there is still a dragon species." A shrill female voice laughed ruefully, and Shaohua couldn't help but get goosebumps when she heard it. "It's a pity."

"What a pity?" Shaohua was a little confused, and didn't know what she said about "Long Live Lord" and "Dragon Species".

Shaohua habitually patted his belly, as if he was soothing the child in his belly. However, in an instant, a flash of inspiration appeared, and a ridiculous thought appeared in my heart, shouldn't the other party think that she was also a harem concubine? However, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that it is eight or nine years old, and it should be the concubine of the first emperor.

Generally, after the death of the emperor, except for a special request for burial, most of the palace concubines stayed in the harem. If you have children, you can stay until the children and adults follow them out of the palace, and if your mother is willing, you can also ask them to go back to their parents' house to support them, but this is the treatment that only a very small number of noble concubines have. And the others are either re-reduced to palace maids, or die of old age in the palace, accustomed to the luxurious life in the palace, and no one wants to go out to live a poor life.

According to Shaohua's knowledge, on the day of the first emperor's release, a total of twenty-seven of the thirty-six masters of the harem and more nobles died. The others survived because there were still underage princes and princesses under their knees. When Shaohua heard this, he still felt terrible, so many people died quietly, but Li Sinian said indifferently that the first emperor was not obsessed with beauty, and there were fewer concubines in the harem than any emperor in this dynasty.

If the person in front of her is really the concubine of the first emperor, then she should have followed the first emperor a long time ago, if not, it must be the mother of the prince and princess.

However, if this is the case, there is one less concubine in the palace, is it really just a laissez-faire.

"It's a pity he doesn't have a chance." After a smug chuckle, he didn't wait for Shaohua to come back to his senses, only to hear her come over and kick Shaohua arrogantly, "Don't hurry up and ask for peace in this palace!" Maybe Hongu can spare your life. ”

Shaohua instantly felt that her scalp was troublesome, and she didn't know what the situation was, she didn't fall into the secret passage just now, she should have survived and escaped, and she was actually asked to salute by a imprisoned concubine.

Her eyes finally adjusted to the darkness around her, and Shaohua vaguely saw a thin figure standing in front of her, only those bright eyes made her hairy.

A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, not to mention that she is not a man, so she can't figure out the situation, so she has to go with the flow.

"The concubine is a concubine and asks for peace to the mother." Shaohua's compliment made her feel very satisfied, probably because she hadn't heard anyone say hello for too long, and she happily agreed. asked Shaohua to get up and help her, Shaohua had no choice but to obey her words, but she didn't expect her to call Shaohua to take off her coat and give it to her.

Shaohua suddenly became angry, and a palace concubine who didn't know how long she had been imprisoned and who had no power or power actually yelled at her. But when I heard her smile coldly, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?" If you can't kill you, it's still easy to kill a child. When Shaohua heard this, she took off her coat without saying a word, glad that she wore more clothes on her body, but she would not have no clothes to wear.

Thinking that she was pregnant with a child, Shaohua just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, so she asked resignedly: "Do you know what kind of place this is and how to get out?" ”

"Get out? Hehe, do you think she pushed you down, and you can still get out? The concubine sneered, which made Shaohua stand up a cold hair.

"Is it guarded?" Shaohua was shocked.

However, thinking that Empress Dowager He didn't mean to kill her, if she found that she was gone, people would definitely come to look for her. Before Shaohua's heart could be put back in her stomach, the concubine's words made her so nervous that she was about to suffocate.

"People? Hahahaha, let me tell you, except for you, me, and the child in this belly, there is no one left. The concubine laughed maniacally, as if she never feared that anyone would find her, and her shrill and poignant laughter sounded more like crying. Shaohua couldn't help but clench her arms, layer after layer of goosebumps reminding her that she had to find a way to get out of this hellish place, and she couldn't stay with this crazy woman.

The concubine seemed to see through Shaohua's thoughts, grabbed Shaohua's wrist, enjoyed her panic, and said with a soft smile: "That slut of the He family probably wouldn't have thought that I was still alive." ”

"So, how did you survive?" Shaohua didn't know how long the concubine had been locked up by Empress Dowager He, but she felt that if she took it here for a day, she would go crazy.

The concubine laughed, "Do you want to know?" ”

Shaohua was frightened by her sudden face, and shook her head desperately, she just wanted to know how to escape.

The concubine smiled sarcastically at her fear, "Anyway, if you want to survive, you'll know sooner or later, otherwise, hehe!" ”

Obviously, he couldn't see her appearance, but Shaohua felt that her gaze had stripped her naked. For some reason, I remembered that Xin Maoshan had mentioned to her that there was a famine more than 30 years ago that there was a situation of cannibalism. And the look in the concubine's eyes just now made her feel a kind of fear, as if she would really eat her.

A palace concubine who doesn't know how long she has been locked up, living in a secret passage where no one will appear, Shaohua only feels that her scalp is numb, and she doesn't dare to imagine what she survived on.

Shaohua took a deep breath, but felt a little strange. If this is a secret passage and no one comes in, even if there is food, people should have suffocated here. But she still didn't feel the air oppressive, although there was no wind and no light, but it was obvious that she was free to breathe, and it was possible that there was a passage to the outside.

This thought rekindled Shaohua's hope, "Niangniang, don't you want to go out?" ”

"Didn't I tell you that there is no way out here, so you will die." The concubine seemed to know what Shaohua was thinking, and unceremoniously extinguished her hopes.

But this time, Shaohua retorted unrelentingly, "Niangniang, even if there is no way, there must be a passage to the top, otherwise people would have suffocated here a long time ago." Shaohua was sure that when she said this, the concubine must have glared at her, she mustered up her courage and looked in the direction of the concubine, and sure enough, she saw a pair of crystal eyes.

"You're pretty clever." It's rare that the concubine is in the mood to praise, but Shaohua is not in the mood to be happy.

After listening to her, he turned around and left, Shaohua was shocked and hurriedly followed. The concubine walked very fast, even in the dark, she could still be unimpeded, but Shaohua followed her with her stomach up, and she would hit the wall in a few steps. I don't know how long it took to go around and around, Shaohua was about to bump into the concubine, when he suddenly heard a "bang", and a faint fire appeared in front of him.

Shaohua was so frightened that she took a few steps back, and she slowly saw a figure in the blurred light, wearing the clothes she had just taken off, holding an oil lamp. She looked around the walls, and was surprised to find that there were oil lamps and torches here, and there were some mottled marks on the walls, but the light was too dim for her to study. It's just that from the dim light, I saw the concubine's emaciated and haggard face, which was not as terrible as she imagined, and her facial features were still delicate, but her eye sockets were so thin that they were deep in the pits.

She also looked at Shaohua, and it was obvious that compared to her thinness, Shaohua's pregnancy looked plump.

With lights and air, there must be a way out of here.

Shaohua's face shone brightly, "Niangniang, if there is air, there must be a way, we can leave here." ”

"Leave? Do you think that slut from the He family will let you leave, even if there is a way, you can't get out. The concubine's words gave Shaohua hope.

Thinking that the person in front of him and Empress Dowager He might be mortal enemies, Shaohua hesitated for a moment and decided to take a risk. She owed her concubine, and said to her in a hoarse voice: "Niangniang, I won't tell you, in fact, I am not a concubine in the harem, I am the wife of Marquis Xingyong." Just because the emperor asked my Hou Ye to investigate the affairs of Pingzhou, the Queen Mother was afraid that the Hou Ye would find out the conspiracy of the He family, so she took me as a hostage. But I accidentally fell, so ......" Shaohua didn't dare to guarantee that the person in front of her would believe her words, but at least she had to explain it clearly.

"You wait!" The concubine suddenly became excited, rushed over and grabbed Shaohua's hand, and said sharply: "You said the queen mother? He's slut became the queen mother? Hongyi ascended the throne? ”

Shaohua didn't expect that the concubine didn't even know that Hongyi had ascended the throne, so she could only nod when she asked her.

"Long live that, no, the first emperor...... He's dead? The concubine suddenly seemed to be greatly stimulated and stupid.

"It's been more than two years since the first emperor died." Shaohua was pinched by her and hurt. But when she thought about it, the concubine didn't know that the first emperor had died, which meant that she had to live in this secret passage for at least two years. Living in a dark and uninhabited place with no food for two years, just thinking about Shaohua made me feel devastated.

"What about my Eleven?" The concubine asked quickly.

The first emperor's son was not prosperous, and there were not many princes who could survive, Shaohua quickly thought of who Shiyi Lang was, and immediately understood who the concubine in front of him was. Eleven Lang's mother is not the sister of Liu Shangshu, who was beaten into the cold palace by the first emperor, and is considered to be the concubine Yifei Niangniang who poisoned the first emperor for Hongwen.

However, Concubine Yi should be in the cold palace, how could she be uninhabited, hiding in the secret passage under the queen mother's bedroom, and living alone for more than two years.
