Chapter 139

Hua Xiang had to go in with the palace maid.

Since Concubine Mei did not invite others, Hua Xiang could only go alone.

After passing through a few beaded curtains and heavy curtains, Hua Xiang finally met Concubine Mei.

In the quiet and elegant inner room, there are several delicate pear wood objects, and the golden beast furnace is quietly burning with Rui Nao incense. The breeze blows up the bead curtains, hitting each other and making a crisp and pleasant sound.

Concubine Mei is more than thirty years old, and she still maintains a bright and moving appearance, even if she has just given birth to a princess, she quickly recovers her complexion.

She was lying by a cradle by the window, patiently coaxing the little princess to sleep.

The little princess seemed to have fallen asleep, her white and tender face was cute, and her pink mouth was closed one by one. Most of the princess's face follows her mother's, and it is not difficult to imagine how beautiful she will be in the future.

The green-clothed palace maid retreated after leading the way. Except for the little princess who has fallen asleep, there are only Concubine Mei and Huaxiang in the inner room at this time.

"It's Miss Flower, right?" Concubine Mei seems to have put on a lot of foundation today, and her face is a little too pale, which makes her bun become more and more black.

"Yes, what is the matter with me?"

"It's nothing, I just want to see you, after all, I've never seen you before." Concubine Mei said with a smile.

Hua Xiang was silent for a moment, not knowing how to respond. In fact, she doesn't have that much ability to arouse the curiosity of so many people......

"You don't have to be inhibited." Concubine Mei said with relief, "It's just that I don't have anything fun here, don't feel bored." ”

"...... Are you looking for me to play? The fragrance of flowers is speechless.

Concubine Mei didn't answer, but said, "No, don't worry, just wait." ”

Hua Xiang picked a comfortable chair and sat down, looked around, and couldn't help but glance at Concubine Mei's side face.

Concubine Mei's face is very gorgeous, at this moment, she is frowning slightly, staring at the little princess's face, she has not taken her eyes off for a long time, and her eyes seem to hide unbearability and sadness.

It's weird.

After a while, the green-clothed palace maid walked in, blessed her body, and asked, "Niangniang, the eldest lady of Murong Mansion asks to see you." ”

Murong Yunyan? Why is she everywhere?

Concubine Mei said lightly, "Got it, you let her wait in the back garden." After that, she was about to get up, and before leaving, she glanced at Huaxiang with an indifferent expression, "You wait for me here." If you feel bored, just call a few palace maids to accompany you. ”

Before Hua Xiang could say anything, the palace maid brought Li'er to accompany her. I guess I felt that Huaxiang couldn't play with strangers, so I brought my acquaintance directly.

"Miss!" Li'er raised a smile and walked in happily, "Why is Concubine Mei looking for you?"

Hua Xiang was stunned for a moment and shook her head.

When Concubine Mei left just now, she felt a little strange. In the huge inner room, the owner was not there, but there were two outsiders. Isn't it a little weird? How could anyone invite a guest to come, only to run away halfway?

Li'er didn't ask any more questions, looked around, and was overjoyed, "The little princess is actually here!" With that, she walked over in a few steps, unable to hide the affection in her eyes, but she did not dare to observe it closely because of her identity.

"Isn't that cute?" Hua Xiang opened her eyes wide and looked at the little one in the swaddling clothes, "My mother said that I was so big when I was a child, and I actually grew so tall in a blink of an eye!" ”

Just as Hua Xiang said in amazement, Li'er was silent, and a blurred light flashed in her eyes.

"Li'er?" Hua Xiang gestured twice, and then called Li'er back to her senses.

"Ah, miss, I'm fine, I'm just distracted." Li'er said quietly.

"Do you miss your birth parents?" Hua Xiang also felt that it was not easy for Pian Er to be alone for more than ten years, and she couldn't help but feel a little pity.

"yes, really, I want to." Li'er shook her head, suppressed the turbulence in her heart, and didn't say anything more.

Li'er reached out and touched the princess's cheek, and then retracted it, "Miss, the slave maid should guard the door first." When Concubine Mei came, she would definitely be angry when she saw the slave and maid standing here with such a lowly status. ”

She stepped back as she spoke, and finally stepped back and closed the door.

Hua Xiang always felt that something was not right.

Why is it that after all this time, no one has returned? Where did Concubine Mei go? Why did you leave her here?

Moreover, the person who called Concubine Mei away just now was Murong Yunyan, which made her feel even more overwhelmed. God knows what purpose Murong Yunyan did this?

She was alone in the empty and quiet inner room, but she felt that, invisibly, a net was approaching, wrapping her in and tightening it tighter, suppressing her to the point where she could not breathe.

"Wow......" The baby in the cradle suddenly struggled for some reason, and suddenly stopped making a sound. Hana hurriedly walked to see her.

The princess's face crumbled tightly, and she turned purple, and she looked extremely uncomfortable at some point.

The princess closed her eyes, and now she was silent, no longer moving, and stopped breathing.

…… It turned out to be ...... He's dead!?

Hua Xiang was shocked, who would be vicious enough to attack the princess?

The ensuing thought frightened her even more, who would implicate her in this matter?

Murong Yunyan? Concubine Mei? Or is it a pity?

She was at a loss and wanted to run out, but found that the door of the inner room was heavily guarded, and the emperor was leading a group of people to come over. If you want to go out, you must bump into it head-on.

Several Praetorian Guards sprang up and grabbed Hana's hands with their backhands, while kicking her hard into the knees, forcing her to knees.

"Your Majesty, the suspect who murdered the little princess has been arrested! Waiting for your fate! ”

Concubine Mei fell on the emperor, her tears were not dry, and she cried: "Your Majesty, the concubine invited Miss Hua to the palace, but she actually killed the concubine's daughter, and the concubine was afraid that she would escape, so she imprisoned her here, and begged the emperor to be the master of the concubine!" Be sure to avenge the little princess! ”

The emperor was not angry and arrogant, but now he was even more angry, pointed at Huaxiang, and said sharply: "Huaxiang, is it the little princess you killed?" ”

Hua Xiang was kicked very hard, and the pain made her grin and speechless, so she could only shake her head again and again, "No...... No! ”

Murong Yunyan stood up, her beautiful eyes were shining, but her eyes were like snakes and scorpions, and she said coldly: "Huaxiang, it's time for you, do you still want to deny it?" Let me ask you, the little princess was fine just now, why did you lose your breath when you went? You're the only one there, not who else you are! ”

Hua Xiang lowered her head and grinded her teeth with hatred, "If I say no, it's not!" Why admit what you haven't done! I also want to ask you, why did you lure Concubine Mei out at a critical time? Are you creating an opportunity for the murderer to commit the murder? ”

Murong Yunyan froze for a moment, and hurriedly looked at Concubine Mei.

Concubine Mei immediately understood, and then said, "Your Majesty, it's all the fault of the concubines. The concubine knew that Miss Yunyan belonged to the Seventh Prince, so she went to the back garden with her to talk to her heart...... Unexpectedly, this kind of thing happened! The concubines shouldn't go out, the concubines are useless, and they don't protect their daughters! ”

A palace maid hugged the infant princess to the emperor, and when Concubine Mei saw her daughter's gray face, she cried even more heartbroken.

The emperor held Concubine Mei firmly and said with relief: "This matter has nothing to do with you, it has made you suffer." The pain of losing your daughter, you should have suffered more than others, how can I blame you. ”

After the emperor calmed Concubine Mei's emotions, he ordered her to retreat.

"Flora, what else do you have to say?! Murdering the royal family is a capital crime for the nine clans! ”
