Concubine Tong turned around and saw Xuan Ye coming in, followed by Wu Yashi with an inexplicable face, just one in and one out, it was impossible for them not to see the noble man who ran out, she was about to open her mouth to explain, Lan Qi had already run to the cradle, saw the silk scarf on the side, saw her son suffocating his face blue, and glared at the concubine in shock: "Niangniang, what are you doing?" ”

The concubine's heart was beating wildly, the jewel beads on the hairpin jingled, she shook her head and waved her hand and said, "No, it's not me!" ”

"What's wrong......

Xuan Ye was about to come up, but before he was close to the cradle, the mountain suddenly shook, and the three of them were panicked, seeing the flower shelf behind the cradle falling, Lan Qi didn't have time to pounce, and saw Tong Guifei blocking the cradle horizontally, the flower shelf fell to the ground next to the cradle, a huge pot of spider plants smashed on her back, and her slender body couldn't stand it and fell to the ground.

And the house was still shaking, the eunuch guards outside had rushed in, Xuan Ye came up with an arrow to pick up Yinzhen from the cradle, several guards rushed over to set up the concubine and the nobles, and the group quickly dodged to the open space outside, after the shock subsided slightly, Xuan Ye stuffed the child to Lan Qi, and immediately took people to the garden in front of him.

This side of the garden is empty, the queen mother is surrounded and stands in the middle of the clearing, the concubines, concubines, brothers, and princesses are scattered on one side, and a few tiles have fallen under the eaves, and the crackling sound makes people's hearts tremble.

After a while, I saw Xuan Ye with the guards coming from behind, and came straight to ask the imperial grandmother how she was, but the empress dowager said: "We are shaking like this here, I don't know where the disaster is outside, you have to go back to the palace quickly, we will go back here in a few days." ”

"Imperial Grandmother ......"

"Hurry up, the people affected by the disaster are still counting on you and counting on the imperial court." The Empress Dowager was calm, turned around and shouted Fuquan, "Send the emperor back to the palace, I'm afraid that it will shake in the next few days, and when I get to the palace on the way, you must protect the emperor thoroughly." ”

Fuquan received the order and came to discuss a few words with Xuan Ye, the emperor did not dare to hesitate any longer, and when he saw that there were reliable people here, he left Mr. Li to support him, and hurried away with his brother to return to Beijing.

As soon as the emperor left, all the concubines and concubines also dispersed, and first hugged the empress dowager to a safe place, the old man suddenly woke up and asked left and right: "Where is the fourth elder brother?" ”

Su Mala Mama actually waited until the emperor came, so she left the master to lead a few eunuchs to look for the back, the queen mother asked, she had already carried the baby over, and the mother of Taizu hugged it, and called a few concubines: "You all lead the children with me, don't disperse these days." He called the prince to his side and took it close to him.

In this way, Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong all led Princess Ah Ge to be with the Queen Mother, and Concubine Wen was helped by the palace maid to walk forward, and looked into the crowd again, but did not see Concubine Guifei and Wu Yashi.

The back here is not as good as the front yard, a house was poured, and the house where the fourth elder brother was located before was also crooked by a beam, after Su Mala Mama came, Lan Qi handed Yinzhen to her, let Huanchun follow, and she followed the palace maid to carry the concubine, she saw with her own eyes that the concubine was smashed in the vest by a flower pot in order to protect Yinzhen, and the shock in her heart had already offset the fear of seeing her by the cradle when she entered the room.

She and Xuan Ye also saw a woman running out in a panic, and when she came over from the other end, she saw Qinglian and a few outside, and when she broke in again, she saw that scene, the shock at that time was indeed indescribable, but now thinking about what she tried to deny, she believed it.

At the moment of danger, his own mother didn't have time to stand in front of the child.

In the flower hall in the open place, the concubine was placed on the couch, and the imperial doctor who followed Hu hurriedly came, and after the diagnosis and treatment, he said that although the concubine was not lightly injured, she did not break her ribs and spine, and she would be fine for a few days, but it was inevitably painful to move her muscles and bones, and it was inconvenient to move her body in recent days.

"Noble people, the emperor and Prince Yu have returned to the palace immediately, and the empress dowager and all the ladies and masters are afraid that they will have to leave in the next few days." The palace maid who came from the Empress Dowager's side came from the front, and she wanted to go back and talk back after seeing the situation here, and when she heard the imperial doctor say this, she asked, "Can't the concubine move?" ”

The concubine lay on the bed, still conscious, but her vest hurt her in a cold sweat, and when she heard the palace maid and the imperial doctor say this, she felt very uncomfortable, and snorted and said: "You serve the empress dowager to leave first, Yuquan Mountain will not collapse, and the palace will be here for a few more days before leaving." ”

Lan Qi didn't care about her, and only instructed the palace maid: "You go and reply first, saying that the injury of the concubine Niangniang needs to be repaired, and the empress dowager has any will, I will come to me later, and I will naturally have something to say." ”

The palace maid took the order and left in a hurry, but not long after leaving, there was a shaking again, Lan Qi and the others were still fine, and the injured concubine couldn't bear such a shock, so painful that she gasped and turned pale.

"...... Would you like to drink some drugs and get some sleep? Lan Qi was flustered and said this, "Probably falling asleep, it won't hurt so much." Gradually, his eyes were shining, and he choked up a little and said, "The concubine thanked Niangniang for saving her life for the fourth elder brother." ”

The concubine turned her head, a pale and bloodless face, and smiled coldly: "Xie Bengong? Didn't you and the emperor think that the palace was going to suffocate the fourth elder brother? ”

Lan Qi shook her head, but she had no confidence in saying "no" a few times in her mouth, at that moment, she really thought so.

"How is the fourth elder brother?" The concubine asked again, "Is he injured?" Have you relieved yourself? ”

The mother couldn't stand such words, Lan Qi couldn't help crying, shook her head and said, "The fourth elder brother is very good, relieved, he has been taken away by the Queen Mother." ”

In the arrogant eyebrows of the concubine, she showed a little joy softly, and fell down softly, probably because her consciousness was blurred in pain, and she only whispered softly: "It's okay." ”

Lan Qi stayed by her side, and then there would be vibrations from time to time, and people were panicked, and when it was getting late, the Empress Dowager sent someone to let the noble people pass.

Lan Qi was about to leave, and there was a sudden noise in the east side of the backyard, she frowned and waited for a while, and sure enough, a guard came to tell her, and said on her knees: "Deguiren, there is a wall down there, and a person who was crushed to death was dug out under the wall, and a little eunuch recognized it as a noble person in the palace." ”

"Nobleman Nala?" Lan Qi was shocked into a cold sweat, and helped the hand of the green pearl and purple jade beside her, the collapsed place was full of mess and dust, and the lantern approached the corpse on the ground, and Ziyu screamed, hiding behind Lan Qi in fright and trembling, "Master, it's the noble man ...... Nala."

Lan Qi didn't dare to look at it, she took a few steps back, her heart was pounding, but she shook her eyes and looked at the corpse, and then she had the courage to look at the corpse, the clothes on Nala's body were not the woman she and Xuan Ye saw?

Just now, was she in Yinzhen's house?

The fourth elder brother is around, on weekdays, the nurse and the mother are not leaving, today she kindly let them go to the front to watch the play, saying that she came to take care of the children, I heard that Xuan Ye was coming, so she went out, and the palace maid inside may have run away for a while, or she was driven away by the Nala clan There is no proof of death, but she turned around, and she almost caused a big disaster for herself.

Thinking of this, thinking of the blue face of her son at first sight just now, Lan Qi's legs fell soft, Ziyu and Luzhu supported her, and waited for her to come to her senses before coming to the Queen Mother.

And talking about Yinzhen almost being suffocated to death, talking about the nobleman of Nala being crushed to death, and being hit by the earthquake, one thrilling thing after another, the frightened Lan Qi finally couldn't help crying in Su Mala's arms.

The Empress Dowager scolded her with a cold face: "I left my son alone in a daze, blame me for being negligent when I came here, you are still young and careless." You, you, go back to the big Buddha hall and kneel for me for a few hours, and think about what you have done. ”

Lan Qi seemed to feel better after receiving a few words of scolding, and the concubines and concubines outside were all leading Princess Ah Ge, and the Empress Dowager was inconvenient to reprimand her too much, Lan Qi calmed down and asked: "I heard the palace maid say that you are going back to the palace, and there will be aftershocks after the guards speak, but I am afraid that the road will not be peaceful." ”

The Empress Dowager said heavily: "The road is restless, but I am here, you and the children are here, Xuan Ye is definitely not steady." He still has to bear the disaster relief everywhere, and there is no more you and me around him, how can it be good. Go back earlier, he is steady, we are just a little more difficult and the road. ”

"The concubine is not lightly injured, I'm afraid I can't move." Lan Qi said timidly, "The concubine herself said that she would raise it here for a few days before leaving." ”

"This time it's a loss to her." The Empress Dowager sighed, and after discussing with Su Mala, she decided to return to the imperial city with Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong and other concubines who had princesses under their knees with them, and the rest often promised to stay here and wait and wait for the concubine to recuperate.

Of course, Lan Qi also had to accompany her, although she was grateful to the concubine, she would not leave the child and the queen mother alone, and decided to leave early tomorrow morning, Lan Qi placed the queen mother to rest at night, and then looked back at the concubine, at that time she had woken up, and was being fed by Qinglian to drink a few mouthfuls of porridge.

Lan Qi stood aside to explain the decision of the Queen Mother, and the concubine just smiled disdainfully: "There are Qinglian around the palace, what do you want them to serve, just hide by yourself, you don't need it." Thinking of something again, he asked, "Qinglian said, Nala was crushed to death?" ”

"A wall on the east side has fallen, probably where the Nala nobles are hiding, and they will be ......" Lan Qi lowered her eyes, paused and then curtled her knees, "The concubine and the emperor saw a person running out of the fourth elder brother's house, and the concubine recognized the clothes on her body, it should be the Nala noble, who must be the one who blocked the fourth elder brother's mouth and nose." Niangniang, the concubine was frightened at that time, and she didn't ......"

"Alright." The concubine interrupted her impatiently, glanced at her and said, "Just go back and explain it to the emperor, don't splash a basin of dirty water on this palace." ”

Lan Qi didn't dare to say anything, and when she got up, she heard the concubine muttering very softly, "You deserve it!" She thought that she should be cursing Nala's family, and the child was suffocating to death, maybe it was a matter of the front and back feet, Yin Zhenfu had a big life, and relieved this breath.

From beginning to end this time, it was all the credit of the concubine, and she, her own mother, only pushed the child to the brink of danger without brains, and the queen mother scolded her for being confused, and she was not bad.

When she left the concubine and returned to the queen mother, she met Concubine Wen who was wandering outside without sleeping on the way, and she was very frizzy and didn't want to talk, but Concubine Wen greeted her and said, "The corpse of the noble man has been disposed of?" ”

"I'm still waiting for the two palaces to show me." Lan Qi responded, and didn't mention anything about running to suffocate Yinzhen, but Concubine Wen said quietly, "Everyone is watching the play in front, what is this woman doing in the back, I heard that the place where she was dug up is near the fourth elder brother's house?" ”

Lan Qi was stunned for a moment, and said perfunctorily, probably, Concubine Wen continued: "She stabbed you before, crazy, how could she be brought out?" Not to mention that there are many people who come out this time, it is negligent, who will come and who will not come will be decided early in the morning, except that Yi Concubine will not come suddenly. ”

"Niangniang's words, the concubine doesn't understand." Lan Qi frowned, saying this on her lips, but her heart cooled down a little, as if she realized something.

Concubine Wen said thoughtfully: "Concubine Yi has been very active recently, you should pay attention to your heart." She smiled again, "Don't blame me for being troublesome, although I don't care about Ah Ling, but he has been giving me eyeliner in the palace, and you know that since my sister's time, there have been in this palace." ”

Lan Qi's heart was shocked, Concubine Wen was still not yin or yang, such words made her unconsciously feel cold on her back, but Concubine Wen was fine, patted her and said: "I heard that the beams in the fourth elder brother's house are also crooked, it is really frightening, there will be a blessing if you don't die, you can relax." ”

After saying this, Concubine Wen walked away, obviously deliberately waiting for herself in the middle of the road, just now the green pearl and purple jade who were far away came over, and asked what was the matter, Lan Qi just sighed: "It's nothing, Concubine Wen is also afraid, and she can't sleep at night." ”

This night, Lan Qi and Su Mala Mama guarded the Queen Mother, the Crown Prince and the Fourth Elder Brother, and the Hui Concubine and Rong Concubine outside also stayed awake all night guarding the Queen Mother and a few Elder Brothers.

Everyone persuaded the Empress Dowager not to set off, but the old man insisted on returning to the palace, and the group set off against the torrential rain.

It's just that after tossing like this, the body of the Queen Mother will definitely not be able to bear it, but the earthquake was extremely bad, hindering Xuan Ye from being busy with disaster relief, and the Queen Mother's illness was not reported out of the harem, but the old man's illness was not light, and Xuan Ye had no choice but to send Yinzhen to the Elder Brother at the request of Lan Qi.

Ten days later, the earthquake finally eased, the affected areas in the suburbs of Gyeonggi were relieved one after another, and all the concubines who stayed in Yuquan Mountain also returned to the palace, and before the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, Concubine Tong also returned to the palace after healing.

For the sake of the community, there will be no Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace this autumn, Xuan Ye decided to lead the princes and ministers to pay tribute at the Temple of Heaven, issue relief relief, and order that the disaster site was shaken by the family, all of which were repaired by the officials.

A catastrophe under the reign of the Emperor of Gyeonggi has been tossed several times, and when it gradually subsides, it has entered the late autumn, and the phoenix body of the Empress Dowager has finally recovered, Xuan Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and entered the palace to ask for peace on this day, and saw Lan Qi kneeling in front of the imperial grandmother and weeping, he had never heard anything from Mr. Li, and he couldn't help but worry, but he heard his grandmother say: "You, a virtuous and noble person, want to send your own son to Chengqian Palace to raise." ”
