The sky is just dark, the spring hall has passed the meal, the concubine is vegetarian, the meal does not bring a little bit of meat, the second prince just got out of school, Tsing Yi wide sleeves, walking into the hall with the wind, as soon as he saw the concubine eating, he handed the book to the waiter, took a few steps forward, and said goodbye.

Concubine Shu called him to her side, wiped her lips with a silk, and said, "Wang'er, have you eaten?" ”

Gu Wang sat down obediently: "Back to the mother, I have already used it before I came, it is jasper japonica rice soaked in duck soup, and Erchen used two bowls." ”

Concubine Shu asked someone to take the pastry and put it in front of Gu Wang: "Someone entered the spring jujube today, and I asked the small kitchen to make jujube mud cake, you have always liked it, try it." ”

The maid offered tea, and Gu Wang ate pastries with Biluochun's tea, and her eyes were full of satisfaction: "Thank you, concubine." ”

Concubine Shu saw that he was eating sweetly, she laughed unconsciously, waved her hand to let people withdraw the meal, and after drinking tea, Gu Wang knew her rules, and she had to worship the Buddha for an hour after eating, so she retired.

Concubine Shu took his hand and said, "Don't read too late." Hurt your eyes carefully. ”

Gu Wang smiled: "I know, mother." ”

The maids took off their makeup for the concubine, and she entered the small Buddha hall alone.

The lamp in the small Buddha hall is not very bright, illuminating the face of the Bodhisattva in the hall is half hidden in the shadows, she kneels on the futon, holds a rosary in one hand, knocks on the wooden fish in the other, and recites words in her mouth, reciting the prayer scriptures.

She didn't know who she was praying for.

In the night, the wind gradually rose, blowing into the small Buddha hall, blowing the lights swaying, the plain yarn was long, and the cat barked from nowhere outside the hall, and the sound was stacked together, which made her gradually uneasy.

The plain clothes were a little thin, and she was a little cold, she called twice, but no one answered, and the concubine stood up and went out to the outer room, and the maid who was supposed to be guarding did not know where to go, and no one responded after a few calls.

She came out of the small Buddha hall, and the wind moved and the clouds moved to obscure the moonlight, so that she did not see the shadows falling from the wall.

Concubine Shu didn't feel slightly angry, her heart was on fire, and she was about to have a seizure, but goosebumps exploded on the back of her neck, and her hairs stood on end, and she instinctively turned sideways.

A long sword pierced where she had stood, and the concubine staggered back.

The uninvited guest was dressed in black, he couldn't see his face, he was extremely tall, and the long sword in his hand was full of flowers, and Queen Shufei Cang retreated.

She called out to Broken Voice: "Who are you?" Dare to assassinate in the palace! ”

The uninvited guest did not answer, and the eyes that were cold and glowing in the shadows did not fluctuate, and he shaved off half of the concubine's hair with a sword.

Embarrassed and deflated, she stumbled into the small Buddha hall, where she bumped into the flame of the lamp and candle, and she ripped off the veil to hinder the Assassin's pace.

But this did not stop the Assassin, who was able to persecute the concubine like a cat and mouse, and the concubine had messy hair, and finally there was no way to avoid it.

The assassin flashed his sword and gouged off her eyes.

Concubine Shu's screams pierced the silence of the Taiyang Palace.

The lights in the hall in the spring came like day, and Emperor Sheng Yuan and Empress Cheng had already arrived, standing outside the hall, listening to the moans of the concubine inside.

His Majesty said, "Did the assassin catch it?" ”

Yan Hui replied on behalf of the palace guards: "Your Majesty, the assassin has not been caught yet, but they found this in the small Buddha hall. The inkstone returned to a red rope buckle, and the word "thanks" fell on the buckle very publicly.

It is self-evident who sent the assassins.

Cheng Hou looked at the peace buckle, and then looked at His Majesty.

His Majesty squeezed the peace clasp in his hand and said coldly: "Xuan Xie Xiang and Liu Shangshu have entered the palace." ”

The news of Concubine Shu's assassination had long been secretly transmitted back to the masters of each family by secret agents, and when His Majesty first arrived at Mingde Hall, Liu Shangshu rushed out of it crying: "Your Majesty! You must be the master of the old minister's daughter! ”

Xie Xiang stood by the door of Mingde Hall, his face unclear.

The chamberlain lit the lamp, His Majesty sat down, and threw the peace buckle in front of Xie Xiang: "Xie Xiang had better give me an explanation." ”

Liu Shangshu interjected: "I have to give the minister an explanation!" ”

Xie Xiang bent down to pick up the peace buckle, and recognized that it was a necessary thing for his secret guard, and his face instantly gloomy: "This matter, the minister will definitely give His Majesty an explanation." After speaking, he turned around and walked out directly.

His Majesty's face remained unchanged, but Liu Shangshu cried tears: "Xie Xiang is really a great official!" Your secret guard hurt my daughter, and you didn't give me an explanation. ”

Xie Xiang stood outside the Mingde Hall, his back was a little cold, he turned his head, half of his cheeks were dark, and his voice was cold: "I'll give you an explanation right away." ”

The direction he went to was the harem.

Liu Shangshu cried, and His Majesty comforted: "Liu Aiqing, Concubine Shu suffered this catastrophe, I am deeply saddened, so let's do it, this year's salt introduction, you are allowed to send a few more." ”

Liu Shangshu closed his voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Your Majesty! ”

His Majesty said: "Now, just wait for Prime Minister Xie to give us an explanation." ”
