Article 504



As soon as Shangguan Zhong's body was found, the concubines in the harem were even more frightened, after all, it was the first time that such a thing had happened in the harem since the emperor ascended the throne. originally thought that it would be over after the real culprit was found out at this time, but no one expected that at such a turbulent time, there was bad news in the prison, saying that Concubine Xian committed suicide due to excessive grief, and wrote in blood in prison before her death

cursed the queen and Ouyang Zhaoyi.

As soon as this incident came out, she immediately went to the autopsy, but she didn't expect that when she saw the corpse of Concubine Xian, she was glaring angrily, looking frightened but dead, but the most frightened thing was a sharp golden hairpin, which penetrated from her neck, and did not see much blood flowing out, but the person had been suffocated for a long time.

At dusk, Qingrong, the palace maid who had previously served Concubine Xian, was released, and Concubine Xian's body was also sent out of the prison, but when Qingrong saw her young lady's frightened remains, she rushed to the 'Kunning Palace' to cry to the sick Queen Mother, saying that Concubine Xian was killed by others, just because the golden hairpin that penetrated her throat was not owned by Concubine Xian, and then in order to show her loyalty, she actually bit her tongue in front of the Queen Mother's bed

Exhaust. When Gonggong Li hurriedly came to report that the jailer had found a fragment of a white jade hairpin commonly used by the virtuous concubine in the prison, Qinglan was also exhausted

It is said that when Concubine Xian died, her whole body was intact, but the fingers of her right hand were half missing, and the bones were curled, probably caused by the bloody handwriting on the wall. For a while, all kinds of rumors began to be chaotic in the harem, and after hearing about it, the Queen Mother became even more seriously ill and almost had no medicine

However, the blessings are not double, but the disasters are repeated, just when the entire harem is infected with a lot of haze, in the Buddhist hall of the 'Kunning Palace', the queen suddenly committed suicide by poisoning, and left a blood letter, admitting that the crime of persecuting Shangguan was done by herself, and explained the causes and consequences one by one, and strictly knew that this matter had nothing to do with Ouyang Zhaoyi, and asked the emperor to read it on top of the ten years of husband and wife kindness, and spared

Forgive the Ouyang family, even if the body does not enter the imperial tomb after death, it is willing.

Hearing that the queen committed suicide, the queen mother cried a lot, and fainted, and the group of doctors stayed in the 'Kunning Palace', but they were all helpless, and Ouyang Hongyu couldn't afford to be sick after knowing about the queen mother and the queen

In the 'Chongyang Palace', Ouyang Hongyu was lying on the bed with a pale face, looking at the emperor with tears in her eyes, almost wanting to cry, but she was forbearing, her expression was pitiful, and she felt pitiful.

Yu Haoxuan sat in front of the bed, his sword eyebrows locked, it can be seen that the many disasters that happened today have indeed added a lot of irritability to him, so Ouyang Hongyu is even more careful to guard this silence, just choked up in a low voice: "The emperor should go and see the queen mother, the concubine heard about the queen mother", speaking of the queen mother, Ouyang Hongyu couldn't help but cover her lips and cry

Yu Haoxuan's eyebrows tightened tighter, and his handsome face was covered with a layer of frost, but he held Ouyang Hongyu's slender jade hand and said comfortingly: "Zichen's body is important, the Queen Mother will put it aside in advance, and I will visit the Queen Mother after watching you sleep."

When Ouyang Hongyu heard this, her tears flowed even more fiercely, she held the emperor's hand with her hands, and sobbed: "Your Majesty... The emperor hasn't cared about Zichen for a long time, and Zichen thought that the emperor would no longer care about Zichen from now on", he said, and cried even more aggrieved and excited.

"How come" Yu Haoxuan said in a deep voice, and when Ouyang Hongyu was stunned, he reached out and stroked her cheek, wiped away her tears, and said in a low voice: "My Zichen is the woman in this harem who knows me best, how can I not care about Zichen?" ”

Ouyang Hongyu's transparent eyes looked at the emperor's handsome face, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes on the quilt, and then she got up and hugged Yu Haoxuan, and her delicate body trembled and whimpered: "Your Majesty... The emperor", it turned out that her sacrifice and her forbearance were known to him, and it turned out that her emperor would look back at her

Yu Haoxuan patted Ouyang Hongyu's back, and said with a soothing and gentle coaxing: "Zichen should go to sleep, otherwise I won't be able to see the Queen Mother."

Ouyang Hongyu greedily sniffed the ambergris on the emperor's body, but she still nodded with tears, lay down obediently, closed her eyes, and let the pain and joy in her heart mix, but when she felt the emperor's footsteps leaving, she still couldn't help but not open her eyes

After the emperor left, Hu Hai and Qinglan hurriedly entered the hall and knelt in front of Ouyang Hongyu, both of them were pale and bloodless, and their eyes were terrified, but they still looked at the master who closed their eyes and cried worriedly, and called out lightly: "Master!" ”

Ouyang Hongyu opened her eyes and looked coldly at the two kneeling on the ground, but her grief became more and more solemn, she slammed the bed fiercely, and said angrily: "Who gave you such courage? Who ordered you to kill the virtuous concubine? Ouyang Hongyu's tears couldn't stop falling, half choked, half angry: "Why did you force the queen to death?" You know it or not

Do you know why I have been reluctant to fight for so many years? But now you've smashed it all."

Tears fell from the corners of Qinglan's eyes, but she said without any regrets: "Miss, we are all for you, Shangguan Wan'er was originally wronged Miss, but now she has gone crazy, and the queen she... She was already half a madman, and the slaves and maids did not force her, she wrote down the poison of her own free will."

Hu Hai lowered his head, his lean face with a trace of imperceptible pain, but the moment he raised his head, he suddenly turned cold and stiff, and said stiffly: "The queen said a lot about the emperor and her before taking the poison, and she cried for a few hours, and then said that she wanted to fulfill her mother, so she wrote down a confession."

The queen didn't really take it willingly, but when she saw Concubine Xian in prison, the emperor didn't even visit, and she knew in her heart that they no longer had husband and wife affection, and in addition to grief, she actually drank poisoned wine under Qinglan's persuasion, and that confession was Qinglan's imitation

Talking a lot about the emperor and her, Ouyang Hongyu's tears stopped, she looked at Hu Hai hazy, closed her eyes, and asked sadly, "What did the queen say?" ”

Qinglan and Hu Hai were both stunned, and then bowed their heads at the same time, but said vaguely: "Back to Niangniang's words, the queen said that she married into the palace at the age of fifteen and became the crown princess, and on the day she got married, she already knew what her fate would be in the future, and she had been waiting, waiting for the day when she saw a group of wives and concubines around the emperor, but she still favored her, but she didn't expect it" Qinglan paused

, also a little sad said: "But I didn't expect that on the wedding night, the emperor would snub her and sit alone until dawn, and when she wanted to leave an heir for the emperor, she actually let Concubine De conceive an heir Now, her heart is dead, and she has no worries."

Ouyang Hongyu listened blankly, the tears on her face gradually dried, but her eyes became more and more desperate, the joy that she had just seen the emperor's gentleness towards her suddenly disappeared, and her eyes were lying on the bed silently. It turned out that even the queen already knew that there was no hope in this life, but she still blindly insisted that the moonlight was lonely, the night was solemn, and the entire palace was shrouded in a bleak cloud...

On the third watch, the 'Heart Palace' was brightly lit, and the entire 'Palace of Eternal Life' was in a mess and chaos, the palace maids and guards were anxiously going back and forth, the imperial doctor was eagerly whispering in the hall, and Xiao Tong, who had just rushed back outside the palace, was kneeling in front of Qingyi's window and crying...

On the dragon bed, the woman who had changed into a robe closed her eyes tightly, her miserable white lips were not bloody, and a green silk was scattered on the bright and yellow jade pillow, and the thin veil covering her face had been removed, and the original scars of different shades and hideous scars looked so pale and cold at this moment

Xiao Tong trembled lightly and held Qingyi's cold hand, she couldn't believe that she had only been out for an hour, and the young lady had become like this, she had no way to imagine that as soon as she stepped into the 'Heart Palace', she saw the scene of fighting and bloodstains everywhere, and when she had a trace of luck and hoped that her young lady was intact, she actually saw the maid in front of the palace bring one out of the hall

basins of blood, and those panicked doctors who almost collided together.

How so? Xiao Tong covered his lips to prevent himself from crying, but he couldn't help himself with grief...

For a long time, Xiao Tong, who had finally calmed down and had a weak heart, looked at the few imperial doctors who were still talking and shaking their heads at each other, the grievances and anger in her heart surged again, she suddenly got up, pulled over a imperial doctor, and shook her hand uncontrollably was a slap, and then roared angrily: "What are you for? My young lady hasn't woken up yet, but you're only

It's shrinking up and shirking here...", he waved his palm to another imperial doctor, but his wrist was grabbed by Gonggong Li, who came in a hurry.

"Let go..." Xiao Tong waved his hand violently like crazy, almost pushing Gonggong Li out of the hall, but fortunately he happened to be held up by Gonggong Qin, who was panting and rushing into the hall at this moment, when Gonggong Li saw Xiao Tong and wanted to hit the imperial doctor who had been frightened, he couldn't care much, so he could only rush forward again, grabbed Xiao Tong's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Aunt Xiao Tong,

It's not a good time, it's already very chaotic in the palace now..."

Xiao Tong's tears were still falling, she couldn't listen to Gonggong Li's words at all in a chaotic heart, and after being pulled aside by Gonggong Li, she suddenly squatted down and cried, no matter how Gonggong Li persuaded her, she couldn't stop. ,

Standing in front of the palace, Gonggong Qin was even more sad, he looked up at Qingyi who was lying unconscious on the bed, thinking of the emperor's angry look in the 'imperial study', he couldn't help but have a layer of fog in his eyes, he hooked up and walked into the main hall, half-knelt beside Qingyi and Gonggong Li, and said with relief: "Xiao Tong, girl, don't cry." I believe that Concubine De must be very sad, if you are like this

If you cry, who will take care of your mother when she wakes up..." Speaking of this, Gonggong Qin's voice was choked...

When the imperial doctor went to the 'imperial study' to report, the emperor was discussing marriage with the lord of Leng Guo, when he saw the emperor's stunned figure, he thought that the sky was about to fall, the emperor has always been clear about public and private, Tai'an knew that the emperor would not ignore the etiquette of the great country and leave the lord of Leng to see Concubine De, but the emperor's forbearance hand holding the chapter was already trembling, he wanted to go forward to comfort, but

found that he couldn't even say a word, so he could only hurry to the 'Yixin Palace' to visit Concubine De first, so that the emperor could be relieved...

Xiao Tong heard Father-in-law Qin's voice, she slowly raised her head, looked at him with teary eyes, and then grabbed Father-in-law Qin's hand violently, and cried: "Father-in-law Qin, where is the emperor?" Where is the emperor? I want to see the emperor, I want to tell the emperor that the young lady loves the emperor very much, and she will stand in front of the window every night and wait for the emperor to return. Father-in-law Qin..."

This time, even Gonggong Li couldn't help but redden, he pinched his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes, his sharp voice became low and hoarse, and said: "Aunt Xiao Tong, get up quickly, Manager Qin is right, if Niangniang wakes up and sees you like this, she will definitely be even more sad, and besides, the emperor will come over later, you quickly wipe your face..."

Gonggong Qin on the side also nodded, so Xiao Tong covered his lips with restraint, wiped his eyes with a silk handkerchief, and stood up, but before he could turn around and walk to the bed, the door of the dormitory was slammed open, and when everyone was stunned, they saw Yu Haoxuan rushing into the bedroom, but when he stepped into the bedroom, he stopped his steps, and his sharp but messy eyes were glancing

When he saw the lifeless woman on the bed, he suddenly became hollow, and the whole person froze in front of the hall... beat

Father-in-law Qin and Father-in-law Li were startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiao Tong, who couldn't stop kowtowing, and the two pulled her out of the dormitory, but Xiao Tong still couldn't stop crying, and the despair in her tears was sad and stinging. At this time, the imperial doctors who had been standing in the hall without saying a word also walked out of the dormitory, leaving the suffocating space to the two imperial concubines...

The door was squeaked shut, blocking the back of Emperor Xiao Suo, and Gonggong Qin helped Xiao Tong out of the corridor of the 'Palace of Eternal Life' with red eyes, but saw Ruyue with a panicked face in front of the 'Weiyang Palace' and was about to go to the 'Palace of Eternal Life'...

Ruyue looked at Xiao Tong's crying and almost collapsed look, her already pale face was even paler, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Tong's hand, and said lightly: "What's the matter, Xian'er, what's going on?" In fact, when she heard the sound of a fight in the 'Heart Palace', she and Qiao'er were much more frightened, and they didn't come out until the noise of the entire palace disappeared, so what happened

I don't know,

Xiao Tong, looking up at Ruyue's delicate face in a daze, her tears suddenly stopped, and in the surprise of everyone, she looked at her quietly, and then suddenly broke free from the support of Father-in-law Qin and Father-in-law Li, pursed her lips and ran away...

In the 'Hall of Eternal Life', the candlelight was dim, on the bed, Qingyi kissed her, her eyebrows were tightened, she shook her head lightly as if she was in pain, a cold tear slipped from the corner of her eyes, her pale lips trembled, she sipped tightly, and her forehead was covered with thin sweat.

In her sleep, the unknown sadness bound Qingyi's soul, making her want to cry unconsciously, until she felt a gentle hand caressing her face, this anxiety and restlessness slowly disappeared, but the corners of her lips were mixed with cold and bitter droplets dripping from there, so that her heart tightened unconsciously, and some unknown pain slowly spread in the bottom of her heart

Tear.
