Chapter 185
"Concubine Xian, you're dead!"
At sunset, mourning music came out of the harem, and Concubine Xian Shu died suddenly, which everyone did not expect.
Qian Yuyang stood outside the hall, stunned as he watched the maid go in and out, the whole person seemed to have lost her soul, motionless, Concubine Xian died of poisoning, but obviously, when he left, the concubine was already awake, and the imperial doctor clearly said that the concubine's poisoning was very light, and she was not worried about her life, but why did the concubine still die.
He regretted it very much, and regretted saying to his mother at the last moment: I hope you don't disappoint me. How could he talk like that.
Concubine Xian Shufei walked very fast, and when the palace people found out, she was already out of breath, and when the poison was poisoned, people were very painful, just like a thousand words, and the pain was unbearable.
Qian Yuyang walked out of the palace in a trance, and when he went down the stairs, he didn't step on the stairs steadily, and when he stepped on the air, the whole person fell into a coma.
When Flower Shadow heard the news, she was waiting for Satsuki to bring a secret letter from Fusang Ruoxi.
After she entered the prison, she heard that the Queen Mother was sick, and even asked Xiaoyue to ask Fusang Ruoxi to see the Queen Mother's illness, and now she is waiting for Fusang Ruoxi's reply.
The Queen Mother's illness came suddenly, although the Queen Mother's health has not been good, but after several months of recuperation, her body has become tough, at least she will not be sick so suddenly. Hua Ying Mei was a little worried, and she didn't know if the Cining Palace was safe now.
Hua Ying Mei didn't expect Concubine Xian Shu to die, and was a little surprised.
"Why, things are more than you expected." A deep voice came from the dimly lit hallway, and the Flower Shadow looked up at the man who was slowly coming out of the shadows.
The other party then unlocked the cell, and Shi Shiran walked in.
Xiao Xiao and Qiu Cicada looked at each other, pretending to be invisible, silently occupying the side, bowing their heads, looking at the ground that was relatively clean compared to the other cells.
"I thought that no matter who was behind this incident, Concubine Xian Shufei's love early on or later was just a chess piece against me, and the other party could be sure that Concubine Xian would participate, then it must be someone that Concubine Xian was familiar with or couldn't refuse. Such a person would not want Concubine Xian's life, at least not so eagerly. ”
Ouyang Lingyue smiled noncommittally, "You're right, but she's dead." ”
Flower Shadow Charm raised his eyes to look at him, and now he was wearing a dark robe, and the golden collar lined his facial features with extremely deep features, "You know? ”
Ouyang Lingyue hooked her lips and said, "I want to verify it further, are you interested?" ”
Flower Shadow Charm glanced at him and said, "Let's go to Cining Palace first." ”
Xiao Yue squeaked twice, got in through the cell window, fluttered in the air for a while, her little eyes glanced at Ouyang Lingyue, and slowly fell into the hands of the Flower Shadow Charm, raised her head and chest to him with her ass, and squinted at the Flower Shadow Charm.
Flower Shadow Charm touched Xiao Yue's head with a smile, reached out and took out the note it tied under its wings, and spread out the note, Flower Shadow Ghost's face suddenly gloomy.
"How?" Ouyang Lingyue frowned.
The Flower Shadow Charm raised her head, her dark gaze was like a dark mist in the darkness, "The Queen Mother... The oil runs out and the lamp withers. Fusang Ruoxi said in the letter that even if it was him, he could only let the Queen Mother live for two more months, nothing more.
He didn't say much in the letter, but vaguely mentioned that the cause of the Queen Mother's illness was a little strange, but told him that he would try his best to find the answer.
Ouyang Lingyue threw a flick in her heart, and stretched out her hand to wrap the flower shadow ghost in her arms.
Now, even the last of her loved ones are leaving her. The Flower Shadow Charm leaned into Ouyang Lingyue's arms, trying her best to suppress the sourness in her nose.
For her, life is like a fleeting ephemeral.
A bullet, a sharp knife, or even a wire can easily kill a person. She once stuck a pen into a person's temple, and watched the other person slowly die in great pain; He also picked out the other party's vertebrae with his bare hands, listening to his miserable screams.
She had despised the lives of all people, including herself.
But at this moment, she found that she could not face it calmly. The suffocating pain in her chest surrounded her like a tidal wave, surging against every outlet that could be poured out.
She discovered that when life comes to the final death, it is the bonds of affection that make the dead nostalgic; It is also the emotional involvement that makes the living heartbroken.
"Mei'er, cry when you're sad." Ouyang Lingyue's voice was gentle and mellow, and it seemed to be able to soothe all the pain, and the flower shadow almost couldn't control the tears in her pupils.
"Crying? Crying means accepting fate, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will never accept fate. Hua Yingmei clenched her fists and forced back the tears in her eyes, Fusang Ruoxi can't heal the Queen Mother, then she will go to find someone who can heal, if no one can heal, she will let the black hand behind the scenes accompany the burial.
It doesn't matter if the other party is a person, an organization, or a country!
The strength of the flower shadow charm made Ouyang Lingyue feel distressed, she didn't have to be so strong, she could occasionally lean on him weakly, but she wouldn't, this girl who was different from any woman in this world made him pity and love deeply.
"Mei'er, who are you suspicious of?" Ouyang Lingyue looked down at her forbearant eyes and asked.
Flower Shadow Charm didn't actually have any clue, but Concubine Xian's death made her focus on Qian Aolin's body, but if it was Qian Aolin, it was impossible for them not to receive any news.
Flower Shadow Charm shook her head, "Although everything points to Qian Aolin, I don't think it's him. ”
Ouyang Lingyue sighed: "Everything will soon be clear. ”
The night was quiet, everything was drowned in life, the moonlight and stars were reflected in the cold lake, with a silvery white cold light, the jailer in the cell fell asleep, and the soldiers guarding outside the cell stomped their feet, trying to dispel the cold on their bodies with their body movements.
"Go back and rest, we'll keep you here."
The soldier looked up at the moon, it had just passed the first watch, wasn't it the third watch?
Later, the soldier saw that the two of them did not move, snorted, clamped the spear in the armpit, held his hands together and put them to his mouth, sighed, and then rubbed his hands, "Don't be stunned, the head said that it is winter, the weather is too cold, I am afraid that we will not be able to stand it, so change it to an hour (an hour in ancient times was two hours)." ”
"Why haven't we heard?" The two soldiers asked suspiciously.
The later soldier was a little impatient when asked, and shouted: "If you still want to continue to suffer from the cold, our brothers can go back and sleep beautifully, anyway, someone will come to replace you two on the third watch." ”
"Don't, don't, aren't we just asking?" The soldiers guarding outside the cell hurriedly stopped them and said with a smile: "Brothers, don't be angry, let's drink together when we come back for a shift change." ”
The later soldier was happy, "Okay, this is unfortunate and really froze to death, you guys go quickly, we can rest in the cold for another hour." ”
After the previous soldiers left, the next few soldiers smiled, saw that there was no one around, opened the door of the prison, and the flower shadow swaggered out of the prison.
"Princess, you must come back on the third watch."
Flower Shadow nodded, just in case the human skin mask was left to Xiaoxiao and Autumn Cicada, even if someone went to the prison, the two of them would be able to handle it for a while.
In Cining Palace, Mama Qin leaned on the side of the bed tiredly, not daring to leave the Queen Mother. The Flower Shadow Charm came in from the window, and the cold air brought by it swept away the fatigue on Mama Qin's face, and her eyes sharpened, "Who! ”
Flower Shadow Phantom walked out of the dark corner, "Mama Qin, it's me. ”
"Princess, you...."
"Heaven can't hold me." Flower Shadow said lightly, her tone couldn't hide her arrogance, "How is the imperial grandmother's illness?" ”
A touch of sorrow flashed in Mama Qin's eyes, and she said in a heavy voice: "The imperial doctor said, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive for long." ”
"Princess, the slave knows that I shouldn't have asked, but Princess, what is going on today. The emperor has decreed that you will be beheaded outside the noon gate in ten days. After hearing this, the Queen Mother was overly sad, and spit out a mouthful of blood and is still awake until now. ”
"It's hard to say anything today, let's wait until I wake up the imperial grandmother." Flower Shadow Charm sighed, and when Mama Qin heard her words, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she hurriedly asked, "Can the princess save the Queen Mother?" ”
Flower Shadow Charm hooked her lips, "Have you ever heard of the Yang Pill?" ”
Mama Qin shook her head, and said with a shadow of flowers: "The Yang Pill is the world's number one divine doctor who refines it, as long as the other party still has a breath, this Yang Pill can bring people over." ”
Hua Yingmei walked to the side of the Queen Mother's bed and took out the pill from her arms, Mama Qin looked at her, knowing that the princess would not harm the Queen Mother, so she staggered her position and gave up her position.
Hua Yingmei turned her back to Mama Qin, cold, the corners of her mouth withdrew a strange arc, opened the Queen Mother's mouth, and stuffed the pill into the Queen Mother's mouth.
At this moment, a sudden gust of cold wind blew, and Mama Qin only felt that a white shadow flashed in front of her, and the person had already come to the bedside and grabbed the wrist of the flower shadow ghost.
"What are you going to do?" The person who came asked in a deep voice, and Mama Qin suddenly raised her head when she heard the sound, and the face of the person who appeared in her eyes made her stunned and stunned.
Unexpectedly, there were two identical flower shadows.
"What for?" The Flower Shadow Charm, who was holding the elixir, sneered, and his idle left hand turned into a hand knife, and suddenly attacked the person behind him.
A cruel smile rose at the corner of Flower Shadow Charm's mouth, and the hand that grabbed her wrist did not let go, but walked in her direction, and the opponent's attack was suddenly interrupted, and Flower Shadow Charm snatched the pill in her hand the moment the other party lost balance.
The other party saw that he was about to be robbed and turned around.
Looking at each other, the later Flower Shadow Charm raised her eyebrows, obviously not expecting that the person with her back to herself would have a face similar to her, no wonder Mama Qin would let her approach the Queen Mother.
The two flower shadows are like looking in a mirror.
Mama Qin was suddenly a little dumbfounded, and she didn't know which one was real and which one was fake, so she could only get up from the ground, protect the queen mother's bedside, and look at the two of them vigilantly.
