Chapter 216

After hearing this, the emperor smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to learn to be considerate after being out here! The queen mother and queen have told me many times, but don't worry, daughter, father knows that you like that kid in your heart, And back then he took care of you in every possible way in the palace, I can see that he is sincere to you! As long as you live happily, I will be very happy. Besides, the third prince of Xuesang Kingdom has already returned, my child Don't worry!" "Father!" Mingxia blushed and threw herself into the emperor's arms, and after a while she raised her head and asked, "Father, brother Chen is ill, do you know?"

The emperor sighed and said, "I knew about it a long time ago, and I have sent the imperial doctor to see it. Why, isn't it alright?"

Mingxia choked with sobs and said, "Brother Chen is very sick this time. He was in a coma when I saw him! Father..." "Really?" The emperor frowned and said, "Hey, I am also I have a very bad headache, Concubine Yu is also sick, and the imperial hospital can't take care of both ends. I will order the imperial hospital to send more imperial doctors to diagnose Chen'er!"

Mingxia nodded and said: "That's right, Father. I have never visited Empress Yufei before, which is really rude. Now that she is ill, my daughter wants to visit her!"

Seeing Mingxia like this, the emperor smiled and said: "Okay, okay, you go! I still have some state affairs to deal with, so I won't accompany you!"

Mingxia hugged his arm and said with a smile: "Father, I'm not a child, I know the palace very well!" She said and left.

The emperor shook his head with a smile, this was revealed just after a few compliments!
Mingxia followed the eunuchs all the way to Yuyao Hall of Concubine Yu, and saw pavilions, pavilions, rockery and waterfalls, small and exquisite, and an artificial lake was built in front of the main hall, which was full of graceful green lotuses.It was late autumn at this time, and several eunuchs and young maids were cleaning up the broken lotus leaves on the water.

She couldn't help sneering, she was indeed the emperor's favorite concubine, even the empress didn't have such treatment!Thinking of the mother she had never met, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. If her mother was still there, she would not allow herself to be bullied by others. Although the emperor loved her, the queen always made things difficult for herself.I didn't suffer less when I was a child. "Princess, please!" The eunuch behind her reminded her again, and Mingxia walked towards Yuyao Palace.

Several young eunuchs rushed in to report.It didn't take long to see Concubine Yu walking out with the help of the maid in person.

Mingxia saw her fluttering in white clothes, leaning on the maid's shoulder timidly, panting slightly, she really looked a bit sick and beautiful!Seeing Mingxia, she had to stand up forcibly, and several maids hurriedly supported her.

Mingxia walked over with a smile, took her hand, and said: "A few days ago, the princess didn't have time to come and pay a visit to Concubine Yu, but today I heard that Concubine Yu's jade body violated the agreement, so I came to have a look, how are you?" Bar?"

Concubine Yu was flattered and said: "Thank you princess for your concern, I'm fine!" She coughed a few more times as she spoke.

Mingxia quickly helped her up and said, "It's windy outside, let's go in and talk about it!"

Concubine Yu had a glimpse of light in her eyes, and delicately supported Mingxia into the main hall.

The two sat down, Mingxia smiled and said: "Let them all go out, I'll just serve you! I don't have anyone to talk to in this palace, let's have a good conversation? I don't know why I feel very nervous when I see you How about kindness?"

Concubine Yu smiled and said, "That's right! I also feel that I am destined to be with the princess! You all go out!"

The eunuchs and maids all withdrew.Mingxia didn't speak, just stared at her non-stop.Xindao: Sister-in-law Wang said that Empress Yufei is her elder sister, and now it seems that there are still some similarities!
Concubine Yu saw that Mingxia was staring at her non-stop, lowered her head and coughed a few times, and said weakly, "Princess, why do you look at me like this? Is there something dirty on my face?" cheek.

Mingxia smiled and said: "No! It's just that I have never seen a woman as beautiful as Empress Yufei, so I was dumbfounded! Empress is so beautiful, no wonder my father treats you so well!" "The princess praised you so much!" !” Concubine Yu said humbly with a smile.He raised his head and saw that Mingxia said yes, her eyes were still staring at her, and she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. She had heard that Mingxia was getting close to that little bitch Lu Ziyi a long time ago.She never came to her own palace before, but this time she came here shamelessly and said so many good things to herself, what kind of conspiracy is there? "Ahem..." Concubine Yu lowered her head and coughed a few times, covered the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Princess, my body is really disappointing. I was going to treat the princess well. Look at this..." "Oh It's okay!" Mingxia heard the order to evict guests from Concubine Yu, but she was always the best at pretending to be deaf and dumb, so she smiled and took a cup and poured a cup of tea, handed it to Concubine Yu, and said, "Your Majesty, drink tea. !"

Concubine Yu originally thought that Mingxia would definitely leave after listening to her words, but who knew that she actually poured tea for herself, and now it is even more unspeakable to ask her to leave!She took the tea, took a sip, and put it aside.Seeing Mingxia standing, she hurriedly said, "Princess, please sit down!"

Mingxia sat on the side, and asked with a smile: "I heard from people in the palace that Concubine Yu's father is Zhong Hong? Since his daughter is the empress, why did he take his family to the Southern Dynasty? This Southern Dynasty is a remote place. , The people there are uneducated, and they are extremely barbaric! The imperial convicts of the Hua Dynasty are all seeking refuge there. Madam, what's going on here?"

Concubine Yu was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't expect Mingxia to ask herself this question, she smiled, and said with embarrassment: "I don't know exactly what the reason is. The young girl came to the palace to participate in the concubine selection that day. Then I left the palace in a hurry, and my father took people to the Southern Dynasty. I also asked the emperor to check for me, but nothing was found. The princess asked me this way, but does the princess know anything? If you You really know something, but you must tell me! You also know that it is impossible for us to leave the palace! I also miss my father and sister very much!"

Seeing what she said, Mingxia sneered in her heart and said: You are really a cunning fox, I'm afraid you wish the Zhong family would never appear in Huachao again, right?Still pretending to be here. "How can this princess know something that the emperor can't find out!" Mingxia said as if nothing had happened, she got up and looked around, and saw that the furnishings in her room were no different from those of other concubines, but there were more. Gold and silver decorations. "Princess, I feel very tired. If the princess has nothing else to do, I want to rest!" Concubine Yu pretended to cough a few times and laughed.

Mingxia nodded and said: "Okay! If that's the case, I'll come to chat with the empress tomorrow!" Then she walked out.

Concubine Yu leaned on the chair with her eyes closed, clasped her hands tightly, and said with a sneer, "Mingxia, do you think you can see anything from me? Even if you see something, Ye Ranchen will accompany me Die together! It's a pity that you will never know who your real mother is!"

"Hiss..." Concubine Yu was covered in cold sweat.This Gu poison is really powerful, she can't stand the pain every time, she hurriedly shouted: "Fandie..."

A little maid in a pink palace dress ran in. Seeing Concubine Yu's pale face, she hurried over to help her, and was about to call out. Concubine Yu shook her head and said, "Stop screaming, help me to lie on the bed. !"

Fendie nodded and helped Concubine Yu onto the bed.After covering the quilt, Concubine Yu let out a long sigh of relief, closed her eyes, and asked, "Is there any movement from the Queen's side?"

Fen Die shook her head and said: "No, the Queen has been in her bedroom, but the Prince has been there a few times!"

Concubine Yu closed her eyes and did not speak.She was very proud because she knew a big secret of the queen.

She still remembered that the weather was not very good that day, and none of the other concubines went, but she went alone.First, she is the newest concubine in the palace, so she should go to Yunqing Palace to walk around more. Second, she also wants to please the queen, because the queen is the biggest in this harem. If she pleases the queen, the future in the harem Life will be better too.It's just that I didn't expect to discover such a secret.

That day, when she went to pay her respects to the queen, there were no eunuchs standing guard outside the Yunqing Palace. She stepped into the room and called softly, "Queen, are you there?"

For a long while, there was no movement in the room, not even a maid in the palace.

She couldn't help frowning slightly, her face full of doubts, how could the empress not be in Yunqing Palace at this time, could it be that she has already gone to the emperor's place?But why is there no one in the house, as if someone deliberately pushed him away!

After walking around the room twice, but still didn't find anyone, she became even more puzzled, and murmured: "It's strange, did it really go to the emperor's side!"

She couldn't find the queen, so she had to go back first, and when she was about to turn around to leave, she saw that one corner of the exquisite four-cornered table had changed its direction, as if it had been snapped off.

Walking forward in three or two steps, she stretched her hand towards the corner of the table. Unexpectedly, with a slight force, the corner of the table turned its direction again, and the bookshelf that was originally blocking the back of the table slowly moved to the left. A small door was exposed.

She was shocked in her heart, she never expected that the Queen's Yunqing Hall would have such an institution, so she couldn't help but stepped forward to take a look.Although the door is not high, the inside is very spacious and bright. Doesn't it look like some kind of secret passage, could there be a hole in the other side of the door?

Full of curiosity, she stepped into the door, walked in along the only path, and soon walked out of a cave in a rockery.

This place seems to be a garden, but most of the flowers in the garden are withered and no one takes care of it, as if no one has been here for a long time.

She looked up at this strange place, with more doubts in her heart.Why did she not know that there is such a place in the palace even after she has been in the palace for so long?This is directly connected to the queen's bedroom, could it be related to the queen?

Following the path beside the rockery, she walked towards the end of the garden, and when she reached a gazebo, a woman's voice suddenly sounded, scaring her to hide behind a few mottled bamboos.

Following the sound, she looked up, and when she saw the scene on the watchtower, she was so frightened that she almost screamed out!

On the watchtower, two women sat facing each other. The queen in palace attire was holding a dagger in her hand, and the one opposite her...

That face was covered with scars, and it had already changed beyond recognition. His eyes were hollow and his lips were turned out. The wounds on his face were criss-crossed. How could anyone tell who it was!

Covering her mouth and standing behind Banzhu, her eyes were full of horror, and she watched this scene in disbelief. When she continued to look down, her stomach couldn't help but twitched, and she retched again and again.At that time, she had also done harm to people in Yuwang Mansion, but she felt shocking when she saw that she had harmed people to this extent!
The woman with disheveled hair was not sitting there at all, but was placed in a large vat, not an inch of skin could be seen from the neck down, and the exposed clothes were muddy, and those dark and yellowish It seemed to be blood from a long time ago, and there was a new wound on her face, and the blood was dripping down her cheeks, it looked horrible!

The queen was sitting opposite the vat, with a little blood on the dagger in her hand, she didn't seem to be scared at all when she looked at this terrifying woman, and she was talking to that woman.
