In the 'Imperial Garden', the air is fresh and pleasant, and the flowers are in full bloom.

In the garden, the concubine, Ouyang Zhaoyi, the flower beauty and those low-level women and maidens all gathered together, the queen mother was wearing a bright yellow coat, wearing a string of jade Buddha prayer beads on her chest, and the silver hair bundle was wearing the queen mother's phoenix crown, and she walked in front of the concubines solemnly, while Li Rong was supporting her.

The Queen Mother glanced at the concubines behind her, with a kind smile in the corner of her eyes, but it looked more serious, so that those concubines who had never been summoned by the Queen Mother lowered their heads in horror and followed at the end, and one of the most eye-catching and conspicuous was Dongyue, that is, the Pei Imperial Lady who could almost bear the grace a few days ago.

The Queen Mother looked at dozens of people left and right, and when she caught a glimpse of Dongyue in a light purple dress and a figure standing obediently on the side, she smiled and walked forward, but Dongyue didn't raise her head in surprise until she saw the pair of bright and yellow, embroidered double phoenix glass pendants on the green grass, and then knelt down in horror, and said: "The concubine sees the Queen Mother, and wishes the Queen Mother a thousand years old."

, Chitose"

"Okay, okay" Before Dongyue's words were finished, she was interrupted by the Queen Mother, and then she saw the Queen Mother hook down, helped Dongyue's body, and said with a smile: "Why is Imperial Girl Pei so frightened? The mourning family is not a man-eating monster."

As soon as these words came out, the other concubines were even more frightened, but Concubine Shu and Ouyang Zhaoyi laughed softly, and then saw Ouyang Hongyu step forward and said with a smile: "Imperial Lady Pei has not yet slept after being appointed by the emperor, according to the rules of the palace, there is no need to pay homage to the Queen Mother, so I have never seen the Queen Mother, so it is reasonable to be afraid."

In fact, most of the concubines in this harem have never even seen the face of the emperor, so how can they know the face of the queen mother? Concubine Shu snorted coldly at the corner of her mouth, and then stepped forward elegantly, glanced at Dongyue's low eyebrows, and said softly: "In this harem, the Queen Mother's favorite is Concubine De's sister, and Imperial Lady Pei is the person recommended by Concubine De to the emperor, so she must be very talented."

, It's better for the concubines to come up with an idea, how about comparing the intelligence of these palace concubines today? ”

"Oh?" The Queen Mother was a little curious, the seriousness between her eyebrows and eyes gradually faded, she turned her head to look at Ouyang Hongyu, and said, "What does Zichen think?" ”

Ouyang Hongyu smiled, her eyes flowed, she glanced at Concubine Shu, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Shu's idea is indeed good, but it's a pity that Concubine De's sister is not there, if you talk about talent, Sister Concubine De can be said to be the first in the capital", said, turned her eyes to look at Dongyue's pale face, and said with a light smile: "I think Dongyue hasn't seen Concubine De for a few days, right?" ”

Dongyue was stunned, her face turned pale, she lowered her head, and responded uneasily: "Back to Zhaoyi Niangniang's words, the concubine has not seen Concubine De for a long time."

Qinglan raised her eyebrows on the side, glanced at Dongyue, and then looked at her own young lady, suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, walked in front of the Queen Mother mischievously, blessed the Queen Mother, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother, since all the masters want to see Concubine De Niangniang, it is better to let the slave maid go to the 'Heart Palace' to invite the Niangniang."

Concubine Shu looked cold and delicate, a little disdainful of her beautiful eyes, and smiled lightly: "Ouyang Zhaoyi's girl is really smart, she can know what the Queen Mother thinks, it is better for Ouyang Zhaoyi to be a favor, give this girl a giant sword to the emperor, and be named the 'royal maid', now the imperial heir is thin, and it is good to add to the royal family", Concubine Shu deliberately stretched the last few words and smiled ambiguously

Get up.

Ouyang Hongyu's originally smiling face suddenly froze, and a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes, but she immediately pinched the silk handkerchief and chuckled, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Shuniang has won the award, Qinglan has been by Zichen's side since she was a child, and Zichen is not as virtuous as Concubine De Niangniang."

"That's because the palace knows what Dongyue thinks in her heart, and she recommends it, but it's just to follow her wishes" Ouyang Hongyu's words were not finished, but was interrupted by a delicate voice behind him, everyone was stunned, and they all looked back at the front of the garden, only to see a bright red sedan chair roof stopped in front of the cobblestone steps, the sedan in front of the sedan chair was blown by the wind, and Xiao Tong, who was dressed in blue clothes, stepped forward,

The sedan curtain was lifted with his bare hands, and a dark figure walked out of the sedan chair

Ouyang Hongyu's face suddenly turned pale, and Concubine Shu was quite surprised, her beautiful eyes were round, as if she didn't believe that the woman who had been rumored to be weak a few days ago was now standing in front of everyone with a straight face, and she was dressed in luxury and plain, and her eyes were still clear

Qingyi flicked her long skirt, looked at the Queen Mother with slightly powdered eyebrows, and then pursed her lips and smiled, held Xiao Tong's hand, and walked forward in broken steps.

A light breeze blows, under the little hair hanging from the ears, a pair of pearl earrings sway leisurely, on the brocade belt, a pink brocade bag is tied around the waist instead of a purse, when approaching the Queen Mother and Concubine Shu and Ouyang Zhaoyi, he blessed his body slightly, and said softly: "The concubine sees the Queen Mother, Sister Shufei", and then, without saying much about those kind words, he smiled and stepped forward to hold Tai

After the hand, he smiled softly and said, "Queen Mother, the concubine misses you so much"

The Queen Mother hurriedly held Qingyi's hand, and even said with a little excitement: "Oh, why did the emperor show mercy today and let my Xue'er come to see the mourning family?" As he spoke, he took Qingyi's hand and walked towards the 'Ziyun Pavilion', chanting as he walked: "Come, Xue'er, the mourning family will take you to the pavilion to sit, don't be tired"|

Qingyi chuckled, also clasped the queen mother's hand, and said in a low voice: "The concubine heard that the queen mother took the concubines to enjoy the scenery in the 'imperial garden' today, so she asked Xiao Tong to take the concubines out to take a look, and the concubines haven't seen the queen mother for a while."

The Queen Mother smiled happily, and when she arrived at the 'Ziyun Pavilion', she asked the palace maid to serve tea and water, and asked the 'Imperial Dining Room' to prepare snacks, and also personally selected some fruits, but she never let go of Qingyi's hand in the end, and kept letting him eat more snacks, meals and fruits, and eat whatever he wanted, and he couldn't treat his body and the imperial heir in his belly badly.

Qingyi just smiled and nodded, wrote them down one by one, and then picked up the strange fruits newly paid tribute by the vassal states and pushed them in front of the queen mother, and said with a smile: "Or the queen mother, you eat more, the concubines are very good in the 'Heart Palace', the emperor listens to the queen mother very much, and does not treat the concubines badly"

Qingyi's words made everyone stunned for a moment, and then only listened to the Queen Mother's laughter, clasped Qingyi's hand and said: "Xue'er is really good at amusing the mourning family, come and come, eat a precious fruit, the envoy of the 'Purple Jade Country' said that this is good for the child, hehe, by the way, you also eat"

Concubine Shu looked proud, looked at the red and delicate fruit, and said lukewarmly: "The things of the 'Purple Jade Country' are all strange things, it seems that they have to marry Princess Xiao Min to the emperor this time, and our harem can be lively again."

Since Concubine Xian was imprisoned, this harem has become deserted, it seems that this place is a lake of stagnant water, if there is no Jiaowu to make waves, it will still be boring

Qingyi heard the sound of the strings, she raised her eyelashes and glanced at Ouyang Hongyu's complexion, which had not been very good since she appeared, and said with a light smile: "What my sister said is that the concubine heard that Princess Xiao Min is beautiful and fragrant, and she is three points more than the lord of Allure, and the emperor is blessed." ”

Concubine Shu was stunned, she originally wanted to use this matter to hit Xiao Tong, who was now receiving holy favor, but she didn't want Xiao Tong to be so careless and unresponsive, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Ouyang Hongyu was also stunned, but then smiled in response, and said: "What Concubine De said is very true", and then put down a smile, glanced at Concubine Shu, and said softly: "But... If this matter is serious, our harem will really be red."

Concubine Shu's eyebrows twisted, and she looked at Ouyang Hongyu a little coldly, but she didn't want the two to collide with each other, and then stared at each other without giving in, until she heard a palace maid not far away hurriedly running and shouting: "It's amazing, Concubine Shuniang, it's terrible."

Everyone was slightly surprised, even Concubine Shu and Ouyang Hongyu, who were fighting in secret, were stunned, and looked at each other, and then saw a palace maid in a long blue dress rushing over, kneeling in front of Concubine Shu, and said tremblingly: "Niangniang, it's terrible, Concubine Xian Niangniang committed suicide in prison, and shouted to... The little palace maid glanced at Ouyang Hongyu timidly, and immediately cried: "Xian."

The concubine said that she wanted Ouyang Zhaoyi and the queen to pay for the blood debt, and said that the queen bought and killed Shangguan Shangshu"

The surroundings were suddenly full of gasps, and even the Queen Mother was stunned, and suddenly stood up in disbelief, and said angrily: "You damn slave, you dare to talk nonsense in front of the mourning family", as he spoke, he pointed to the palace maid who was kneeling on the ground and trembled: "Gonggong Li, drag this palace maid down to the mourning family and scold it fifty times to correct the hearing"

Qingyi's eyes moved, stood up coldly, and then held the queen mother's hand, and said softly: "The queen mother is angry, according to the concubine, this palace maid seems to have been frightened to delirium, it is better to ask her what is going on first", and then stretched out his hand to stroke the queen mother's rising and falling chest, and said softly: "Queen Mother, you sit down first, your body is important, don't be angry"

The queen mother was angry, after all, the emperor's wedding was imminent, and now such disgraceful things happened one after another, and now even the envoys of the 'Purple Jade Country' have come to propose marriage. If this matter is big, where is the majesty of the Celestial Empire?

Qingyi turned her eyes to look at Concubine Shu, signaling her to seize the opportunity to suppress the Ouyang family, while Concubine Shu hesitated when she received Qingyi's gaze, and then hurriedly walked to the Queen Mother's side and comforted: "Queen Mother, what my sister said is very true, it is better for the concubine to interrogate this little palace maid first", and then sneered at Ouyang Hongyu and twisted her eyebrows lightly, with an unknown look, she turned her head and knelt

The little palace maid on the ground with a frightened face reprimanded angrily: "Aren't you going to quickly explain what you just played? ”

The little palace maid was already frightened to the point that her face was bloodless, and when she heard Concubine Shu's words, she immediately cried and stammered: "Slave... Slaves... Hui Niangniang's words, slave maid, slave maid is the palace maid who delivers food to Concubine Xian, but when the slave maid sends food to Concubine Xian Niangniang today, she happened to see her holding a hairpin and wanted to commit suicide, and asked the slave maid to roll over and tell Ouyang Zhaoyi, saying that Zhaoyi Niangniang killed Shangguan

Shangshu, their father and daughter will not let go of the Ouyang clan if they are ghosts."

"Presumptuous" The Queen Mother suddenly shouted angrily, she got up and smashed the tea bowl on the side, panting angrily, tremblingly pointing at the crying little palace maid, and said, "You... You dare to insult the mourning family and the queen, you... You"

"Queen Mother" Everyone looked at the Queen Mother's suddenly collapsed body in shock, and the pavilion suddenly panicked, even the concubine who was still proud before and Ouyang Hongyu, who didn't know why, were frightened, and then rushed forward, supported the Queen Mother's crumbling body, and shouted: "Quickly pass the imperial doctor, quickly pass the imperial doctor"

The queen mother fell ill, and the harem was even more turbulent, and the concubines who originally thought that the virtuous concubine would be calm after being imprisoned, when they heard that the queen and Ouyang Zhaoyi had actually killed Shangguan Zhong, who had been stripped of their official positions, demoted to commoners, and exiled outside the imperial capital, was killed and hid the corpse of the 'Fengqi Palace', they set off a storm, and a wave was like a wave, and the news had spread throughout the entire capital in less than an hour

, whether it is the officialdom or the people, they all began to discuss, and for a while, rumors spread everywhere, and people were panicked

In the 'Kunning Palace', the imperial doctor was still in the palace to diagnose the pulse of the queen mother, the emperor came early, but he could only pace outside the hall irritably, Concubine Shu, Ouyang Zhaoyi, Hua Meiren, Pei Imperial Girl and many other concubines all stood aside with their heads bowed, only Qingyi, who was pregnant, was given to sit aside.

Qingyi held the tea bowl in her hand, and her drooping eyes looked at Yu Haoxuan's irritable steps, but she didn't say a word, only Concubine Shu stepped forward to comfort her, but she didn't want the emperor to ignore it, so she could only retreat to the side with a red face

Ouyang Hongyu stood aside, her eyes tightened, as if she couldn't figure out something, she raised her eyelashes from time to time to Qingyi, who had a calm face, and some doubts rose in her eyes, but at this time, she suddenly heard that Gonggong Li outside the hall rushed into the hall in shock, knelt in front of Yu Haoxuan, and said in horror: "Emperor... The Emperor and the Official... Shangguan Shangshu he... He died in the 'Fengqi Palace'

Finish. ”

Gonggong Li's words were like a bomb, shocking everyone in the hall, if it weren't for Qinglan's support, Ouyang Hongyu, who was stunned, would have been paralyzed to the ground at this moment, and Concubine Shu, who had been virtuous recently, opened her mouth wide and froze there in disbelief

Yu Haoxuan's footsteps stopped, his body froze slightly, and there was no sound in the hall for a while, and the silence made people's scalps tingle

Qingyi's hand also held the armrest on the chair, she lowered her eyelids, didn't dare to look at Yu Haoxuan, reached out and handed the tea bowl in her hand to the table, but she didn't want to be distracted for a while, she actually hit the tea bowl on the edge of the table, the hot water was crooked, smashed on the ground with a bang, the white porcelain rolled down everywhere, and the warm water and tea stained Qingyi's golden beaded shoes, which frightened her to stand up. ｜

The sudden sound shocked everyone again, and even a few timid palace concubines screamed, the hall was suddenly chaotic, Qingyi's heart was also shocked, the tea that he forgot was cold, and he would not burn himself, but when he came back to his senses, the whole person had been protected into the emperor's arms.

"The Emperor... The emperor" Qingyi looked at the bright yellow that kept herself, and she was a little helpless, and wanted to say something, but she only heard Yu Haoxuan say softly: "Don't be afraid"

Qingyi was stunned, looked up at Yu Haoxuan, only to see him looking at her with worry, his big hand caressed her back, and whispered: "Don't be afraid" and then held her hand and put it in his heart, "I'm here"
