Chapter 159

'Boom! '

The dusty door was slammed shut. In this abandoned utility room, there lay the dying Abi and the powerless Xueyi on the ground. The voices of those people just now were still in my ears:

"The princess has leprosy. In order to avoid infecting other people in the palace, the servants followed orders. If they offended, the princess waited here for the prince to return to the palace to give the order. Then the slaves dared to let the princess out."

Leprosy?
Xue Yi stretched out her hand to caress her cheeks, there were some uneven rashes, and some itching on her neck, but she knew medical skills, so how could she not be able to tell, this is not leprosy at all, but an allergic phenomenon, it must have been during the ritual ceremony last night, There was something wrong with the black water that the wizard gave her.

She faintly felt that the matter was not simple, so she first moved Abi to a pile of dry wood, she tore off the fabric and made a simple bandage on Abi's legs, time passed little by little, and in the evening, a maid brought her water and food.

"Wangfei, this servant has come to deliver food to Wangfei at the order of the Supreme Concubine."

The door opened a gap, the maid came in tremblingly with a veil on her face, Xue Yi recognized the person who came, it was a maid in charge of cleaning in the old dowager's palace, she had an impression of this maid, she If I remember correctly, this little maid seems to have a seriously ill father in her family.It seems that no one wants to get involved in this errand of food delivery, only the inferior maids are forced to come here.

"Prince, Concubine, put the food here, servants leave!" The maid was afraid of getting infected, she didn't dare to get close, she put the plate on the ground at the door, didn't salute, and was about to leave in a hurry, Xue Yi called her :"etc!"

The palace maid was startled, her eyes trembling with tears: "Prince and Concubine forgive me, servant girl, servant girl did not mean to offend."

"Don't be afraid, it's fine if you stand here, listen to me." Xue Yi sat on the ground weakly and said to the maid.

"Please tell me, Wangfei."

"Is your name Tweety?"

The palace maid nodded: "The princess rescued the slaves last time, but I didn't expect the princess to remember the names of the slaves."

"Do you want to leave the palace, do you want to cure your father's illness, so that your parents can live comfortably in the future?"

The palace maid was stunned, and stared at Xue Yi with trembling eyes: "I don't understand what the princess said."

Xue Yi said: "You only need to do one thing for me, in the future I will be able to promise what I just said, you should think about it carefully, you are going to stay in the palace, worrying about being bullied every day, maybe If you die wronged in one day, you still have to seize today’s opportunity to fight while you are still alive, for your parents and for your prosperous life in the future.”

"This" the maid hesitated.

Xue Yi continued: "Think about it, I am a princess, they can treat me like this, you are just a little low-class maid, if you bring me food and water today, if I really die of leprosy in the future If you are dead, can you get away? This kind of thing is the most taboo in the palace, and you will die sooner or later. If you don’t help me today, you will still not be able to live when I get well and walk out from here, so, Whether to do it or not, you should think about it carefully.”

The maid fell to her knees and said, "Princess, please forgive me. I will obey you."

Xue Yi breathed a sigh of relief, took off a jade bracelet in his hand and put it on the ground, picked up a brick at the side, and smashed it hard against the jade bracelet, the bracelet broke into fine pieces in an instant.

She tore off a piece of cloth and wrapped the piece of broken jade, "Take this, find a way to go to the harem to meet the queen, and give this to her personally."

The palace maid was startled, and said: "Princess, servant, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the servant to do so. The other palace has issued an order that no one is allowed to leave the palace."

Sure enough, as she expected, it seems that all of this was premeditated, and the news of her being imprisoned will definitely not be released in the other palace.

Xue Yi said: "Don't worry, I naturally have a way to let you go to another palace."

"The king and the princess have a solution?"

"There is a ditch behind the Qixia Hall. When you pass there, you can swim out of the other palace from the ditch to the imperial garden of Mingfang Hall, and you won't be noticed."

The palace maid hesitated for a while, and said: "But the servant may not be able to see the queen."

"If you can't see it with the normal method, then use an abnormal one, and you will be caught and sent to the queen. Then, you will understand?" Jing Xueyi woke up a little bit, and the maid was not stupid, "Servant, servant understands gone."

"When you see the queen, give this bracelet to her." Xue Yi handed the cloth-wrapped bracelet to the palace lady, who quickly reached out to take it, then wrapped it again with her own piece of juanzi, and then put it away. "Just, just give this bracelet to the queen?"

Xue Yi said: "Don't worry, as long as you hand it over to the queen, the queen will let you stay with her, and your life will not be in danger for the time being. When I leave here, I will let you out of the palace."

"Remember, be quick!"

The court lady nodded, trembling slightly, retreated from the abandoned miscellaneous room, and locked the door.

Xue Yi brushed away Abi's sweaty hair, and wiped off the blood stains on Abi's face, "Abi, you must hold on, I won't let you die, do you hear me?"

The clothes that were drenched last night had already been dried by the wind, she slowly narrowed her eyes, and there was a cold cruelty in her eyes.

Old concubine, Die Shuang, I never thought of harming you, I just want you to experience the taste of despair, the pain of seeing the power that you have obtained disintegrate in an instant.

Dharma, wizards, leprosy, and then locked up in this abandoned miscellaneous house.

I'm afraid that what awaits her next is a catastrophe.

This step by step is all for her death.

Dieshuang, I didn’t expect you to be so jealous of love. Since one of you is ruthless and the other is vicious, don’t blame me. I will only return the pain to you one by one. For Abi, even if you are a heinous The people who are here will not hesitate!

She looked up at the sky outside the window through the pane, and the sky gradually darkened.

If it is as expected, Die Shuang is afraid that Die Shuang will do something tonight, to hide the truth from the old concubine, and just say that it was an accident afterwards, and she will be able to live in a mess, and she will die sooner or later after suffering from this "leprosy". Someone will pursue it.

Now the only one who can save her in this palace is Shangguan Hongyu. The last time she left the palace, she accompanied Shangguan Hongyu to play for a day. Shangguan Hongyu had promised her that if he knew she was in trouble, he would not ignore it.

Let the maid go to see Ge Yingying, although Ge Yingying will come when she hears about her, but Ge Yingying can't save her by herself, the emperor needs to come forward to do it, so she asked the maid to go with the broken jade.

Just because
------------------------

At that time, the queen's bedroom.

"Which palace are you from, you dare to burn the ghost paper in front of the gate of this palace? Do you know that this is a crime of disrespect!" Ge Yingying held the teacup and looked down at the 'sloppy' who was kneeling on the ground below. The maid, I saw that the maid's clothes were still dripping with stinky water, and her hair was still stained with water weeds, she looked extremely embarrassed.

The palace maid Cui'er was trembling, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me, servant girl, this servant girl is a maid from another palace, in order to see the queen, there is no other way but to risk death and burn it at the gate of the palace. Paper, my mother forgives my sins, my mother forgives me!"

"You said you wanted to see Ben Gong?"

"Yes, it is the princess who ordered the servants to see the empress!"

Ge Yingying's eyes flashed, she put down the cup, the princess regent asked you to come see me? "

The court lady Cui Er nodded sharply, Ge Yingying looked at the court lady and said: "She didn't come by herself, and she didn't send any other maids close to her, why did you let such a low-class court lady take risks to see me?"

The palace maid flinched and took out the jade bracelet wrapped in cloth, "If you go back to your mother, it's not that the princess won't come, but she won't come. The princess has contracted leprosy and is locked up in the abandoned utility room! The maidservant will give the princess a gift today. During the meal, the concubine asked the servants to come to see the empress, and also asked the servants to give this to the empress."

Ge Yingying was stunned, and said: "What are you talking about, the princess has leprosy?"

"It was diagnosed by the imperial doctor this morning, and then the empress dowager ordered the concubine to be imprisoned in a miscellaneous room and not allowed to be released. The prince has left the palace again, and it will take several days to return to the palace."

Ge Yingying's eyes gradually narrowed, and she ordered someone to hand over the cloth bag, and when she spread it out, it turned out to be a pile of broken jade.

She frowned: "This broken bracelet is what the princess asked you to give to Ben Gong?"

"Exactly."

"Didn't you break it?"

The palace maid Cui Er hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, it was the servant who watched the princess smash it with bricks!"

Ge Yingying stared quietly at the broken jade in her hand with her eyes closed, and thought about it carefully: Why did she ask a court lady to bring her a piece of broken jade?
Broken jade. Broken.
Jade broken? !
"It's better to be broken than to be whole", Ge Yingying's mind suddenly popped out such a sentence.

Her face suddenly turned pale, she got up, and hurried into the inner room with a few steps, holding the broken jade in her hand.

It seems that the princess regent has already found out that she is suspicious, maybe she has already found out that she is not the real song family lady Ge Yingying.In my mind, I recalled that day when the princess regent came to inquire about Zong Bing Ge Wendao, and then there were several times. Now that I think about it, it was the other party who deliberately tested her!

She didn't expect that the second lady of the song family was much smarter than she thought, and she was so invisible that she let her guard down several times!
The other party asked the palace lady to bring the broken jade. It seems that the situation is not as simple as the palace lady said, it must be extremely dangerous. She, the queen who does not have the real power of the emperor, may not be able to solve the siege. Only by going to Wei can she be freed, so she didn't hesitate to warn her that if she didn't try her best to lead the emperor to save people, she would tell the truth about her as a fake queen, and everyone would die together. The palace will definitely investigate, and she will not escape being caught after all.

Holding the fragmented jade tightly, she calmed down and walked out again: "Get up, I already know." After speaking, she called a court lady: "Take her down to change clothes, and stay here for the time being. Anyone who asks will say that this palace wants her."

After hearing this, the court lady Cui Er immediately kowtowed to thank her.

Ge Yingying said to the maid: "Change clothes for me, I'm going to see the emperor right away."

------------------------

At night, a demonic moon hung in the sky, and the night after the rain was particularly dull, and the sound of frogs croaking made people feel restless.

Xue Yi's heart was tense, listening carefully to the movement outside the house, not daring to fall asleep.

Outside the house, among the mottled shadows of the trees, several figures flashed out with quick and light steps, all carrying a jar in their hands, and pouring the full water and oil into the miscellaneous room.Inside the house, Xue Yi heard the movement, and leaned against the windows with her weak body. Those windows had already been sealed with wooden strips. Through the weak moonlight, she saw something sprinkled on the panes.

A smell of oil slowly drifted into the nostrils.

She furrowed her eyebrows, her heart burning with worry.It looks like they want to burn her here!

When Xue Yi woke up, there was already a fire outside the house, and the pungent smell of smoke wafted in. She calmed herself down, and subconsciously looked at the big vat in the corner, presumably it was a vat for chaff, now abandoned here .

She forcibly tore off a large piece of cloth at the corner of the skirt, and soaked the cloth with the water sent by the palace maid Tweety. Half a glass of water just wet one piece, and she covered Abi's mouth and nose with the cloth.

Billowing thick smoke billowed in, the flames turned red, and the scarlet fire engulfed the miscellaneous room. She panted hard, and with great effort, she carried Abi into the abandoned broken vat, and turned over again. A few hard objects such as broken pots and scrap iron were placed on the top of the vat, and the smoke choked her nose. She leaned on the edge of the vat, stretched out her hand to caress Abi's cheek: "Abi, you have always protected me this time. .Let me protect you."

"Good, Abi, I'm sorry for making you suffer with me. Your fate is bad. You were cast in the wrong womb, and you fell into a master like me. You didn't let you live a good life. If possible, I really want to be with you Together, we sisters will go to the grassland and live an ordinary life.”

"But Abi, what I bear is not only the hatred of the child, the hatred of Mingxiang, but also the responsibility of being the princess of Beicang Kingdom. Don't you feel the most uncomfortable when they say that I am a evil star, a disaster that brings disaster to the country and the people?"

"Abi, I want them to know that I am not, I am the princess of a country, I want to recover Bei Cang's dignity from Dongling Kingdom, I want to satisfy his regret for my father, I want to let him die After resting my eyes, I hope my people can live a peaceful life. Perhaps among those people, there are your lost father and mother, and even more, your brothers and sisters and Mingxiang's brothers and sisters."

With a smile on her face, Xue Yi held Abi's unconscious face. The crystal tears kept rolling in her eyes but held back. She coughed non-stop, watching the fire gradually burn in from outside the house.

Abi, if I can get out of here alive, no matter what I do in the future, don’t be sad, you just need to remember to be happy
Abi, in case I die.
promise me live
The fire was raging, and the fiery seedlings danced in her eyes. She lay down on the top of the tank, watching the smoke billowing from the roof, watching the flames engulfing the dilapidated tables and chairs, she became unconscious every inch of her consciousness, and the suffocation took away the air in her chest , even breathing is so difficult, there is the sound of crackling fire jumping in my ears, and the enthusiastic bonfire on the grassland emerges in front of my eyes
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, pulling back her last trace of consciousness, and she saw a figure in the thick smoke.
------------------------

This night, the queen's bedroom.

Ge Yingying stood aside, looking at Shangguan Hongyu all the time, seeing that he was very frightened and furious from the moment he learned that the second lady of the Ge family had an accident. Leaving half a step away, with that worry and heartache, she couldn't be more sure this time, the two of them must have known each other before?

The room was surrounded by a room full of imperial doctors, and almost all the veterans of the imperial hospital were quickly invited over.

Lying in the next room is the servant girl, and there is also an imperial physician treating her.

"Your Majesty, it is not yet confirmed whether the Regent Princess is suffering from leprosy. It is better to ask the Emperor to cherish the body of the dragon and leave here." Some imperial physicians and eunuchs came up to persuade, but Shangguan Hongyu ignored it and dealt with it coldly. : "I asked you to come to treat people, not to be lobbyists!"
