Chapter 171: Zhou Xuening self-immolated
Maybe in the hearts of these people, Zhou Xuening is just a princess who has fallen out of favor and plotted to kill the prince's heir, so she killed her personal maid Xiaoqi.
After all, they are just ordinary maids, but they don't know that they are often around.
Day 2.
"Have you heard, have you heard?"
"What did you hear?"
"The crown princess's house has been raided."
"Really? I heard that the crown princess's family is the richest man in Kyoto City! ”
"Really, really, when we went out to purchase yesterday, we saw it with our own eyes, it was the richest man in Zhou who was personally taken by General Zhenxi, the elder brother of Concubine Niangniang."
These maids cleaned the room for Zhou Xuening, and saw that Zhou Xuening hadn't woken up yet, so they started to discuss what happened outside the palace with you and me.
And this matter happens to be Zhou Xuening's family matter.
Zhou Xuening had actually woken up a long time ago, but she didn't want to open her eyes, after all, these maids who didn't know the truth looked at her like this.
She is not blind in her eyes, nor is she blind in her heart, she knows it, but now that she has no children, what else does she have to worry about, does she have to argue about anything, it is meaningless.
The only thing that made her sad was that she thought that if Du Pingxuan dealt with her, it would definitely be that the Du family would not be able to deal with the Zhou family, so she crashed the target into herself.
But now that I hear what these gossiping topics are talking about, the Zhou family has been copied!
Her last backer is gone!
Maybe I heard that there was no backer for a long time, and her backer has always come from Yan Ao'an's favor.
The man who washed her hair, painted thrushes, and planted lotus flowers for her is long gone.
Or maybe it never happened.
At this moment, Zhou Xuening was extremely tired in her heart, she didn't know what to do, how to face everything next.
It was she who harmed the Zhou family, it was she who harmed her own children, she deserved it!
She was really sad to think about it.
She kept forcing her eyes to pretend to be asleep, and it wasn't until the group of maids and maids were all gone that Zhou Xuening got up from the bed.
She leaned against the edge of the bed, not knowing what to do, so she thought about it.
For a sinner like her, maybe her death is the best relief!
She put on her clothes, dressed herself, and then hanged herself with a white silk.
She carried a stool and placed it on the table, hung it on a pillar on the edge of the room, and tied it in a knot.
When she had done all this, she seemed to think of something, and then she got out of her stool, found a match for the night lamp, and set the bed on fire.
Then she climbed onto the table, stepped on the stool and put Bai Aya around her neck, stared at her feet, the stool fell to the ground, and slowly she began to struggle twice, and then stopped struggling after a while.
"It's water, it's water, it's water, the princess's residence is water."
A eunuch found the smoke, and after a closer look, he found that it was actually the palace of the crown princess, and immediately hurriedly shouted loudly.
Yan Ao'an also heard it, and immediately rushed to Zhou Xuening's hall, which was already full of firefighters at this moment.
Yan Ao'an immediately pulled someone casually and asked, "What about the crown princess, have you been rescued!" ”
The man was stunned for a moment when asked, and then replied hesitantly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the slave did not see the Crown Princess. ”
"Buzz."
Yan Ao'an's mind immediately buzzed, and he desperately rushed to the fire, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhou Xuening hanging on the hanging beam in the middle!
Zhou Xuening was dressed extremely beautifully, but because she chose to hang herself, her appearance was a little ugly.
But the firelight was really too big, and the firelight flashed and shone on Zhou Xuening's face, as if Zhou Xuening was smiling.
Yan Ao'an stood by the door like this, stunned!
Du Pingxuan also heard the news, and rushed over to see if Zhou Xuening was really dead and wanted to make way for her.
But what she saw was such a scene, Zhou Xuening seemed to be looking at her, rolling her eyes, her long tongue was spit out and hanging strangely on her lips, and she seemed to smile weirdly under the swaying of the firelight.
Frightened, she retreated again and again.
The heart is also beating "thump"!
But she Du Pingxuan is not afraid of her Zhou Xuening, a coward who will kill herself if she loses!
But Du Pingxuan was still a little discouraged, after all, Zhou Xuening's life was a stumbling block that hindered her, but now that she is dead, she has to burn down with the palace of the crown princess.
Isn't that in her way!
Why did Zhou Xuening set fire to this palace, in order to disgust Du Pingxuan for the last time.
Du Pingxuan swallowed his saliva, and finally resisted the urge to vomit, and then came to Yan Ao'an's side strong and calm.
He hugged Yan Ao'an with his hand.
Yan Ao'an originally wanted to save Zhou Xuening, but when he saw Zhou Xuening hanging like that, he was also stunned, how much Zhou Xuening hated herself, so she didn't even want to leave the corpse.
"No need to save it."
Yan Ao'an also felt the sadness, and after opening his mouth to say this sentence, he then left with the support of Du Pingxuan.
A group of people carried the wooden barrel and froze in place, is this not saving the princess or not fighting the fire!
Everybody, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, no one came up with a reason.
No one dared to move, so they let it burn.
The raging fire burned for three days and three nights before it was extinguished, and no one dared to put out the fire, and at the same time, they did not dare to really let the fire burn to other places.
After the fire ended, everyone was stunned, Zhou Xuening's body had been burned to ashes, and a golden palace that had been surrounded by rocks and carved dragons and phoenixes became a ruin.
All that was left was the black charcoal, which had been extinguished by the fire.
Everyone was silent, but after making sure that there was no flame and Zhou Xuening's corpse, they all went to their own business.
Zhou Xuening also got her wish and completely stayed in the palace and position of the crown princess.
Zhou Xuening's death was not investigated by Emperor Yan Beishen, so Yan Ao'an reported that Zhou Xuening had murdered the unborn child, which eventually led to his miscarriage.
In the end, because of mental disorders, he hanged himself, and all the fires that were relatively dry in winter may have ignited the palace of the crown princess because the oil lamps overturned everything.
"The son of the emperor enlightened his father, and the crown princess committed suicide in fear of sin."
Yan Ao'an said all this calmly in the morning, as if he was like a bystander, without any trace of sadness on his face.
In fact, Yan Aoan was also sad, at the moment when his child was gone, but it was just that moment.
Everyone knows that this matter cannot be so simple, but no one will easily expose this lie, after all, there is no benefit and benefit for themselves.
"Zhou Xuening plotted to kill the prince's heir, and now he has committed suicide in fear of crime, so he has been demoted to a concubine, and his bones are not in the royal mausoleum."
According to the normal renewal, Zhou Xuening can enter the Huangling Tomb, and she also does not need to be demoted to a concubine, but the crime she put down did commit suicide and murder the emperor's heir.
