famous eldest daughter

Chapter 753 Candidates

"The Queen's coffin was attacked by two thugs. Her clothes were disheveled and her body was invaded."

When Xiao Yu and Gu Yuqing heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. After a moment, Xiao Yu took a breath and said, "You are really right."

After saying that, he turned to the secret guard and said, "But find out who did it?"

"They are the two Miao fanatics who were locked up in the secret room by Your Majesty." The inner guard replied in a deep voice, "Last night, Your Majesty interrogated them. After the interrogation, they knocked out the escorting Imperial Guards on the way back to the secret room. , trying to escape."

"Later, they were rounded up by the Imperial Guards. They dodged and rushed to the main hall of the Queen's mourning hall. The man named Miao Er, when he saw the Queen's phoenix body, he had evil thoughts and acted in public..."

Because of Gu Yuqing's presence, he couldn't finish the rest of what he said. But he didn't say it, and everyone knew it in their hearts. They skipped this paragraph and added: "One of them was a rebel named Bai Wei who used to be with the Queen. The thief took advantage of the chaos and escaped. The Imperial Army was still searching for him, but when his subordinates came over, they had not found him yet."

When he finished speaking, he saw a complicated look on Xiao Yu and Gu Yuqing's face that he couldn't understand.

Xiao Yu waved his hand to signal the hidden guards to retreat, then turned to Gu Yuqing and said, "Father is too hasty to do this... No matter how you say it, he is the rebellious party of Miao Jiang who has been lurking for many years. He finally broke free from the imperial army and has a chance to escape. , you escaped well, why did you do that!"

There was a look on his face that didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and with an expression on his face, he wrote: Father, can't you just have some snacks?
Gu Yuqing shook his head, "For this kind of thing, the emperor only wants the result. Where the result is, who cares about the process!"

After six days of peace in the 27-day spiritual period, the emperor could no longer hold back the resentment and anger in his heart.

No matter how Miao Da Miao Er was designed, or how unreasonable the whole process was, as long as the queen was defiled, it was enough.

In this way, the emperor can bury the queen in another tomb in a grand manner.

The queen who had been defiled, even if she was defiled in this way, could no longer be buried in the sacred and inviolable royal mausoleum.

Not to mention not being able to enjoy the vigil and worship by the descendants after death. The 27-day spiritual period is over.

The emperor hated the empress so much that he arranged such an event. Otherwise, if he simply didn't want the empress to be buried in the imperial tomb, he could have ordered someone to burn the mourning hall to the ground. Without the body, the empress Yes, it's just a tomb.

But even this tomb cannot be tolerated by the emperor.

He was afraid that he would never have any contact with the queen again, life or death. Otherwise, how could he, who was so concerned about the royal family's face, make such an arrangement that completely disregarded his face, injuring the enemy a thousand times and damaging himself eight times? Hundred.

With a slight sigh in his heart, Gu Yuqing put the matter aside and said: "Ke'er, I don't know how to arrange Bai Wei."

Xiao Yu patted Gu Yuqing's shoulder, "Don't worry, Wei Qi is helping him! I will pick him up in the afternoon."

Gu Yuqing nodded.

There was no news from the palace yet, so they still had to enter the palace as usual. They helped Gu Yuqing get into the car. Seeing that her door curtain was closed, Xiao Yu turned around and rode the horse brought by the servant of the Chinan Hou Mansion.

The carriage rocked and the group of people passed through the uninhabited Gulou Street and headed straight towards the palace.

When Gu Yuqing got out of the car, he glanced at the majestic palace courtyard that was still white yesterday and was full of filial piety. He saw red bricks and green tiles, resplendent in gold and green, and the yellow glazed tiles were shining with the spirit of life under the winter morning sun. Vibrant, radiant, like new life.

All white curtains have been completely removed from the entire palace.

Even the guards at the gate took off their filial piety, as if to deliberately highlight something. Everyone was dressed in gold and red, holding spears in their hands, standing still, majestic and sacred.

Gu Yuqing remembered that this dress seemed to be worn by them only during the lively festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and the New Year's Eve.

Seeing this, the corner of his mouth trembled slightly, how much the emperor must hate the queen to do this!

The chamberlain who had been guarding the door for a long time saw them walking side by side in full filial piety. He hurried over with a look of urgency on his face and saluted Qian'er, "Your Highness, Miss Gu, please come back. Your Majesty has ordered that the spiritual period is over. There is no need for you." Pay close attention to your filial piety and guard your soul."

Gu Yuqing and Xiao Yu looked at each other. Xiao Yu pretended to be confused and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

The little chamberlain didn't get the order from above, so naturally he didn't dare to say more, and he just mumbled a few words casually.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu was just pretending and didn't make things difficult for him. After a few words, he and Gu Yuqing turned around and turned back. The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and watched Gu Yuqing get into the car. The next person to come.

At this point, the illustrious British government and the noble and sacred queen have come to a complete end.

If something like this happened, the queen might not even be able to get a title.

Another tomb, this tomb, where to find another.

The construction of the mausoleum takes time, and it also consumes material, human and financial resources. Now the emperor obviously doesn’t want to see anything related to the queen again, and wishes he could take the queen’s coffin out of the palace immediately. So what does the queen’s new tomb look like? One can imagine.

It's probably nothing more than a cave.

In the carriage, Gu Yuqing held the small cloisonné enamel hand stove in her hand, and her mind was filled with thoughts.

Originally, during the period of national mourning, the emperor should mourn for his first wife. Now that this has happened, this filial piety no longer exists. With the empress' coffin and coffin being buried, there will be another uproar whether in the court or the harem. A new bloody storm.

Xiao Yu does not want to ascend the throne, and Concubine Hui has no intention of taking the throne. So who will the vacant post fall to?
Gu Yuqing's mind was spinning with the young ladies of marriageable age from various high-ranking families in Beijing. Gu Yuqing's brows were slightly furrowed. As her thoughts rolled around, her heart tightened, and a name jumped up, Luo Yao.

The legitimate daughter of the eldest concubine of Pingxi Palace, her best friend in the past and present life, Luo Yao.

As Luo Yao's name came to mind, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but sit up straight. With her fingers trembling slightly, the small hand stove in her arms slipped out and fell with a thud.

Fortunately, the lid of the hand stove was tight and the charcoal fire did not fall out.

Jixiang Ruyi was startled, and looked at Gu Yuqing, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Leaning over to pick up the hand stove, wiping the dust off it with a silk handkerchief, Jixiang held the hand stove in front of Gu Yuqing with a worried look on his face.

Gu Yuqing pursed her lips into a smile, took the stove and shook her head lightly, "It's nothing."

Although he said this, his heart was like a turbulent sea and could not calm down.

In her previous life, Luo Yao married into a merchant family. Although she was extremely mismatched and could be described as cheap, she lived a comfortable and happy life, and the person she married loved her like a treasure.

In this life, for some reason, Luoyao, who was supposed to return to Beijing from Luo Bing in Hangzhou during the Mid-Autumn Festival, has yet to return.

At the moment she is not engaged yet, and she is just the right age...

　Thank you Poppy for the lovely reward!
