The palace maids and eunuchs on the side all flocked to the matching hall, and Taohong also rushed over, and it didn't take long for her to run out of it with a pale face in fright, and she knelt in front of Yi Concubine and cried: "Niangniang, Guo Guiren is really gone, Guo Guiren is gone." ”

"You talk nonsense!" Yi Concubine pounced on her shoulders and shook violently, crying heartbreakingly, "She was fine last night, I fed her, you talk nonsense, you talk nonsense." ”

The peach was rubbed into a bad shape, the master and servant both cried sadly, and Yi Concubine didn't care about Lan Qi here, crying and getting up and stumbling towards her sister's house, the palace maids and eunuchs in front of the door were crying on the ground, and the cries and cries one after another made people upset.

"Master, what should we do?" Yu Kui came to Lan Qi's side and whispered, "It's better to go, I'm going to Cining Palace anyway." ”

"Sister ......"

Without waiting for Lan Qi to speak, Yi Concubine's mournful cry came from inside, Lan Qi walked forward as if enchanted, and when she was about to reach the door, Yu Kui couldn't help but persuade her: "The dead have nothing to see, the master is careful of bad luck." ”

"I'll just take a few looks, and I'll go to the Queen Mother to reply." Lan Qi insisted on going in, but she didn't go inside when she entered the door, but looked at the bed from afar, Yi Concubine hugged her sister who was out of breath and cried, vaguely hearing what she said, "Sister, I'm sorry for you, how can I live without you......"

Lan Qi's heart sank, but she was not sad at all, because she knew early on that Xuan Ye was going to kill her, so she didn't feel sudden? Or do you think that it is more painful for such a crazy person to live than to die? The only emotion that can't be said to come up, the only thing that makes her feel sad may be her cold and hard heart for watching her life pass away at the moment but being indifferent.

"Taohong, I'll go to Cining Palace to reply, there are rules for red and white things in the palace, someone will arrange it, you take care of Yi Concubine Niangniang, Rong Concubine Niangniang and they will also come." Lan Qi calmly ordered, and when she was about to leave with Yukui, she suddenly heard the palace maid exclaim, and when she turned around, she saw Yi Concubine slumped on the bed, as if she had fainted from crying.

"Bring your mothers out." At this time, Lan Qi couldn't leave, watching the palace maid and eunuch carry Yi Concubine out from the dead man with all hands and feet, and then ask the imperial doctor or notify the Sixth Palace, and many people left for a while, Lan Qi was not good to leave the fainting Yi Concubine alone, but fortunately, she was carried back to the house and was pinched by Taohong, and Yi Concubine woke up in one breath.

The person who woke up was full of strength, probably crying too sadly and excitedly, her eyes were suddenly bloodshot and looked very scary, she was still sobbing all the time, and she couldn't calm down, and Lan Qi listened to it the most, or "sister".

The palace maid got cold water and soaked a handkerchief on Yi Concubine's forehead, she twitched all over her body under the cold, but she seemed to come back to her senses, looked at the person in front of her blankly, and as soon as she saw Lan Qi, she grabbed her hand when she got up, and cried and begged: "Concubine De, please save my sister, Concubine Hui wants to kill her." ”

"Guo Guiren is dead, you are sober." Lan Qi looked at her unusually calmly, and little by little broke free of her hand.

Yi Concubine stayed for a while, her body softened, and then she didn't cry or make trouble, but she was stunned, and at this moment, the people in charge outside had arrived, Rong Concubine and Hui Concubine also arrived one after another, Lan Qi came out and said very bluntly: "Sister Hui Concubine should not go in at this time, Yi Concubine She said to everyone she saw that you killed Guo Guiren." ”

Concubine Hui's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief, "Me?" ”

Concubine Rong persuaded her: "You have been in charge of this matter, and she has some thoughts, so naturally you didn't kill the person, just wait for the doctor to examine the autopsy and tell her clearly." ”

The two waited outside, and when Lan Qi said that she was going to Cining Palace, Hui Concubine said: "Sister, wait a little longer, wait for the imperial doctor to talk back, everyone is a witness to each other, otherwise Yi Concubine will go around talking nonsense, who will return my innocence?" ”

Concubine Rong glanced at her, Lan Qi was reluctant to leave, but she didn't understand why Concubine Hui said this, how she lied without any color on her face, did she think that the emperor would not say it to a third person, or did she know it in her heart, but she pretended to be okay in front of herself?

The three of them sat dryly, and the concubines in it would cry from time to time, and it didn't take long for the people from the Internal Affairs Office to bring the post-mortem doctor, and the concubines said to go in and tell in front of the concubines, and everyone poured into the inner hall again, and Taohong hurriedly put down the tent on the bed to cover up the embarrassment of the concubines.

"Sister Yi, the Imperial Doctor is here, none of us have heard the results of the autopsy, you keep saying that I killed someone, and you can listen to what the Imperial Doctor says?" Concubine Hui was full of seriousness, but she was not in a hurry, she sat aside calmly, pointed to the imperial doctor on the ground and asked, "How did Guo Guiren die?" ”

The imperial doctor bowed his head and said: "Guo Guiren died of heart failure, the minister has examined it, there is no sign of poisoning, there are no other external injuries, and it is not suffocation, it is inferred that it should be natural heart failure, Guo Guiren has been in a mood for a long time, I am afraid that he has already broken his heart and lungs." ”

After these words, the people in the tent did not move, and Concubine Hui motioned to Taohong to take a look, and Taohong looked at it and said, "I'm in a daze, it's okay." ”

Concubine Rong sighed: "Guo Guiren's life is not good, you go down, everything will come according to the rules, but after all, she gave birth to Princess Kejing for the emperor, I will go back to the queen mother to see if I can mourn and honor." He even pointed at Lan Qi, "Cining Palace bothered my sister to reply, to put it tactfully, don't scare the Empress Dowager." ”

Lan Qi couldn't wait to leave, got up and left, and heard Concubine Rong behind her admonishing: "Sister Yi, don't think nonsense, although this matter is your sister Hui's decision, how dare she harm people's lives, it's your sister Hu Si......"

Lan Qi walked out, and gradually the voice was inaudible, and Yukui helped her and sighed: "This is all the trouble, the slave and maid are dizzy." ”

"I'll rest when I go back for a while, I'll scare you." Lan Qi was very indifferent, after the two left, they rushed straight to Cining Palace, but saw Xiangyue wandering in front of the door, and saw them happily greeted her, "Master, are you okay?" ”

"Did you reply?" Lan Qi asked.

Xiangyue nodded again and again, "I've been back to Mama, Mama said I know, let the slave wait here for you to come back, the Empress Dowager is chanting in the Big Buddha Hall, and Mama will let you go directly." ”

Turning to the Big Buddha Hall, Mama was sitting outside waiting, and when she saw her coming, she sat down together, and asked softly, "Is Niangniang scared?" How can it be so coincidental, you went to Guo Guiren and it was gone. ”

"It was I who just passed over and didn't say a few words, when the people in the palace found out that she was gone." Lan Qi recalled the scene just now, and said to Mama, "It's just because the emperor told me that there would be this day in the morning, so I'm not afraid, but I can't say it in my heart, and I'm still a little uncomfortable." Right now, Sister Rong and Concubine Hui are cooking, let me tell the Queen Mother. ”

Mama smiled: "You are so calm, the master must be very happy, but there is no one who should not live, no need to make a fuss." ”

"Mama, but who shouldn't be alive?" Lan Qi was a little confused at this time, but fortunately, she could completely relax beside her grandmother, and she could say something she wanted to say, while the Empress Dowager had not come out yet, she hurriedly said, "Guo Guiren gave birth to a princess for the emperor, do you say that when the emperor sees the princess in the future, will he remember this woman?" Mama, there are some things that I think I understand, but when I look back and think about it, I don't seem to understand, it's okay, and when there is something like this, when I contradict myself, I will be uncomfortable. ”

"The slave doesn't know how to explain you, maybe after years of life accumulation, you will have an epiphany about these things that once bothered you, or maybe you are still a blur when you are old." Mama said kindly and gently, "But who hasn't figured something out? From the slave's point of view, no matter how smart you are, the important thing is to understand how you should live, as for the life and death of others, can you control it? So if you can't figure it out for such a thing, then it's good to be confused, and if you can't figure it out, does it really have an impact on your life? ”

Lan Qi tilted her head to listen, as if she understood what Mama meant, but her heart was still hazy, and it didn't seem to be for these few words, but she said: "It's really strange and pitiful for Yi Concubine to cry like that, I also have a sister." ”

At this moment, in Yikun Palace, the people who should be dispersed have dispersed, Rong Concubine has left for Ningshou Palace, and she was going to go with Hui Concubine, but Hui Concubine said that Guo Guiren has not yet been buried, she always has to stay and watch, this matter has always been in her care, and she must start and finish. Concubine Rong was not reluctant, but I don't know if she would have thought that she had only left Yikun Palace not long ago, and the two people who were on the same page just now could already sit and talk well.

At this moment, in the dormitory, Yi Concubine has regained her calm, drank the ginseng soup in a big gulp to replenish her vitality, covered her chest and said: "It's a shame that she yelled at every turn before, I cried all morning, and my sternum was about to crack, and it hurt very much." ”

Concubine Hui sat aside and said, "But I look at Concubine De's strange calmness, and I don't know if you cry like this, what will she say to her when she turns around." ”

Yi Concubine breathed slowly, frowned and said: "It's really calm, so calm that I almost can't act, this woman is really strange, doesn't she say that she is the most compassionate and kind?" Why did you see me so sad and not moved at all, Sister Hui, is your method really useful? ”

"It doesn't matter if he is easy to use or not, you cry and cry, and people are dead, she is the only one who sees you so sad, and I heard you say that you hate me for killing your sister, let's talk less in recent days, hoping that she will let go of the mustard in her heart." Concubine Hui rubbed the corners of her forehead and sighed, "Just like Concubine Rong and I couldn't defeat Concubine Tong at the beginning, maybe Wu Ya's clan can't be shaken either, in this case, we shouldn't have a bad relationship with her, we have to watch and do it." ”

Yi Concubine sneered: "I hope she can pity me in her heart, say a few good words on it, and hope that at least a year or two later, they can forget about my sister." ”
