It stands to reason that the emperor's harem is not allowed to be entered, but for the sake of their daughter, they are determined to give it a try, even if they have all their wealth, as long as they can see her! After the dispersal of the court, the minister hurriedly said goodbye to everyone, and was eager to rush home, when a colleague who had a good relationship with him stopped him, and with a hint of hesitation, sadness, and grief in his eyes, he pulled the minister into a corner where no one wanted, as if he did not want others to hear their conversation.

He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but the words came to his mouth but he couldn't say it, the minister saw this, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Hong Liang, just say something, I still have urgent matters" Hong Liang heard this, saw the eager expression on his face, thought that he knew something, his face showed sadness, and his tone was also full of desolation, "Brother Shaoting, the festival mourning is smooth, you must not be excited, ensure that your body is important."

When the minister (that is, Shaoting, who will be called Shaoting next) heard these words of his friend Hong Liang, he was very puzzled: What was he talking about? Why did he not understand it? Why are they all a little strange today? Suddenly, Hong Liang's words lingered in his mind again: Mourning changes, mourning changes, mourning changes......

Shaoting's heart became even more chaotic, he seemed to know the answer to the matter, but he didn't dare or wanted to believe it. He asked Hong Liang in a trembling tone, "Old friend, do you know something? Is it about Ying'er?" Of course, Ying'er in his words is his daughter who was sent to the harem.

Hong Liang heard him ask, and sighed secretly in his heart, it turns out that they don't know about Ying'er, so now do I want to tell him? He knows what Ying'er is to his friend, it can be described as the pearl in his palm, the treasure in his heart, he has doted on her since she was a child, and Ying'er has not disappointed them, not only is she beautiful, but she is also familiar with the scriptures and books, proficient in etiquette, and she is really a model of everyone's beauty.

They were even happier to see Ying'er like this, and they were waiting for the day when they could find a good husband for Ying'er, but now that such a thing has happened, if they really tell him, I'm afraid he will really make something unexpected. But if he didn't say it, and felt sorry for his friend, Hong Liang fell into deep thought.

Shaoting on the side saw that Hong Liang was reluctant to explain to him, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, and the emotions on his face were even more diverse, including worry, anxiety, and fear......

"Old friend, what do you know, tell me quickly!" Hearing his shout, Hong Liang also made a decision: Anyway, they will know about this matter sooner or later, and they can't hide it. "That's it," he let out a long sigh and began to say to Shaoting.

"This matter has been spread all over the court today, that is, your old friend, your daughter Ying'er has fallen!" Boom, Hong Liang's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue to Shaoting, his face was full of disbelief, "What!" "Old friend, tell me, what the hell is going on, isn't Ying'er in the harem?" Why did she fall?"

Hong Liang saw the current appearance of his old friend, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: What a sin!" "It is said that Ying'er fell in the harem, and since Ying'er entered the harem, she has been brutally unkind by Di Xin, washing her face with tears every day, and her spirit is becoming weaker and weaker, and finally she can't stand such humiliation and commits suicide-".

"What!" Shaoting let out a roar of rage, he couldn't accept such a cruel truth. His hands tightly grasped Hong Liang's arm, and he said hoarsely to his old friend, "Is this true?" Hong Liang saw his appearance and knew that it was difficult for him to accept this fact, but this is the case! Seeing the trace of expectation in Shaoting's eyes, Hong Liang's heart hesitated a little, but in a blink of an eye, he eliminated this hesitation, and said in a firm tone, "That's right."

Hearing Hong Liang's affirmative words, Shaoting's whole person was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning. After a long time, he let go of Hong Liang's arm, didn't say a word, and left hobbly. Hong Liang knew that he was in a very bad mood, so he didn't bother anymore, and quietly watched him walk away, for some reason, Hong Liang looked at Shaoting's back, and suddenly felt that he was much older, like an old man in the twilight.

When Shaoting returned home, he found that there were bursts of wailing and crying from the house, hearing this sound, Shaoting's heart was even more sad, and a nameless anger rose in his heart, and he decided that he must severely punish these noisy people.

When he entered the main hall, he was just about to reprimand these people, but he saw an object on the ground in the main hall, and his wife and family members were all crying around him. Seeing this scene, Shaoting seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly rushed forward. Sure enough, in the middle of the crowd, there was a young girl lying on the ground. Seeing this figure on the ground, Shaoting stretched out his trembling hands, tremblingly removed the veil covering the figure, revealing her face.

Although her face is haggard, pale, and without any blood, it does not affect her beauty at all, and whoever sees it can't help but think: she is so beautiful after her fall, how beautiful she was when she was alive!

When everyone saw the figure that suddenly rushed up, they just wanted to scold him when they found out that this person was their master, so they swallowed the words in their mouths again and stopped talking. When Shaoting's wife saw him returning, she threw herself into his arms and began to cry loudly. During this period, she also said intermittently to Shaoting, "Husband, Ying'er, Ying'er, she is dead." In this atmosphere of grief, Shaoting also began to cry silently.

Seeing the appearance of the two, the others quietly left, leaving this space to the two. At this time, both of them regretted very much in their hearts, they should not have let their daughter enter the harem in the first place, they felt that their daughter's death also had a lot to do with them.

Looking at their daughter's emaciated, haggard face, they could imagine how much humiliation their daughter had endured, and their hearts ached!

After the grief, the two sat quietly beside their daughter and said nothing. On the second day, Shaoting came to the court early, originally there was a funeral at home, so he could not go to the court, but I don't know why he still insisted on doing this.

Everyone in the court knew something about Shaoting, and when they met, they said "festival mourning and change", and only some ministers who were good friends with him would comfort him. On top of the court, Di Xin said to Shaoting with a sad face, "For Shaoying's death, the widow's heart is very painful, but the matter has come to this point, Aiqing should mourn and change."
