wedding dress

Chapter 264

The Empress Dowager Shengci sent Baozhu to send her out, Xiaodong was a little uneasy, the figures of Concubine Ming and the Fifth Princess were always dangling in front of her eyes.

"The empress dowager has ordered that the princess go out of the palace directly, and don't go to the Ciqing Palace."

Even if Empress Dowager Shengci didn't order, Xiaodong didn't plan to go to Ciqing Palace.

There are a lot of people there...

When I got to the gate of the palace, I saw a group of people from a distance, in a state of chaos.

Both Baozhu and Xiaodong were frightened today, it would not be an exaggeration to say they were frightened birds.Baozhu hurriedly stopped and asked people to go over first to find out what happened.

Baozhu and Caigu are both old people around the Empress Dowager Shengci, and they are very respectable. When someone is sent there, a middle-aged eunuch rushes back and forth to answer the question.

It turned out that there was no disturbance as they thought, but that several people in the Ciqing Palace passed out today, and one of them was an elderly man who was brought here just now to be picked up by his family members because he was afraid that the situation was not good.Another family who came to pick up the old lady saw that someone was being carried here, and thought it was their own, but after a lot of disturbance, they each figured it out.

Only then did Baozhu let go of her worries, and sent Xiaodong straight to the car, seeing that Qin Lie came to pick her up in person, she turned around with confidence.

Speaking of which, the princess is also blessed.For fear of wronging his son and daughter, King An stopped marrying after Concubine Yao left.Although the man the princess married only donated an official position, he was a reliable person at first glance.This woman, the most important thing is benefits.It's useless to look good.

No one understands better than Baozhu and the others who have been in the palace for many years.

As far as face is concerned, who has a royal reputation?Queen, concubine, prince and princess...

Even the queen mother is lonely and cold.I didn't sleep well at night, and when I woke up, I couldn't fall asleep again.

Baozhu thinks of Concubine Ming...and thinks of Empress Dowager Shengde who is currently placed in Ciqing Palace.

Back then, when the Empress Dowager Shengde suffered from a serious illness before she lost power, some people secretly spread rumors that the Empress Dowager Shengde was actually not a disease, but a miscarriage deficiency.She also said that she brought handsome men outside the palace pretending to be eunuchs into the palace for a private meeting, and so on. She said it with nose and eyes, as if everyone had seen it with her own eyes.

This is certainly not true.

Baozhu knows Empress Dowager Shengde better than anyone else, that woman has been domineering all her life, and many people hate her, but she has nothing to say about her character.

Those rumormongers are too outrageous, I don't want to think about how many pairs of eyes in the palace are watching.The Empress Dowager Shengde was used to being extravagant, going in and out, eating and sleeping, there were a total of forty palace people waiting in two shifts, even if she wanted to steal someone, she had to be able to steal it, where did she put it?

If he knew how to steal it, to be honest, even Baozhu would want to steal one.

It's okay during the day, but the long loneliness and desertedness at night is really hard to bear.There are also fake couples in the palace, palace servants and eunuchs fake phoenixes, and even some kind of friendship between court ladies...

Although it's not like what can be done between husband and wife outside, but it's also affectionate and loving, knowing the cold and the hot——

Just now, when the official Qin was picking up the princess, his eyes only glanced at him from head to toe, and he was even more meticulous when he was helping to get on the car. He deliberately lowered the shaft of the car for fear of touching his feet. Come back I'm afraid I'll have to set the car up again.Afraid of touching his head, that hand was actually protecting the door frame.

This is not some superficial effort.

Baozhu felt emotionally——

She didn't dare to stay outside for too long, it was a troubled time in the palace right now.Don't say that she is someone close to the queen mother, even the imperial concubine's whereabouts are unknown, what dignity does she have?
Baozhu went back to answer the message to the Empress Dowager Shengci, and when she came out, Caigu was ordering the palace servants to clean the rooms in the side hall of the back hall.

This is not a day for cleaning, I'm afraid Caigu is not at ease, and through cleaning, let people check if there is anything wrong.

Changing the orb will do the same.

Caigu turned her head and saw her, nodded her head, and signaled her not to leave.After giving orders, Caigu came over.The two stood in front of the corridor and talked in a low voice.

"The princess sent it away?"

"Yeah. It's so messy at the gate of the palace. Some people in Ciqing Palace can't stand it. I'm afraid there will be a big event in the palace, and there will be funerals in the capital too."

"When returning to the country for a funeral, you can't catch up with some people." Caigu lowered her voice: "Gao Jing and the others walked eastward all the way, and left the Shun'an Gate."

After leaving the Shun'an Gate, it is no longer the boundary of the harem, and it is not easy for their people to inquire about news.

But this also shows that the imperial concubine's crime is serious and involves the court.

"Could it be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment?" As soon as Bao Zhu said the words, he knew he was wrong.

The affairs of the harem are dealt with according to the law of the harem. No matter how you say it, the noble concubine is still the emperor's concubine. Even if she really committed a serious crime of treason, for the sake of the royal family's dignity, she will settle it quietly and report her illness and death to the outside world.

"Most likely, the emperor will personally intervene."

Both were silent.

It's like this in the palace, with ups and downs unpredictable, sometimes rich and noble, sometimes down and out.

"Oh, this year is not going to be peaceful again."

No idea who else was involved.

The imperial concubine is in the deep palace, and she must not do anything by herself.Someone must have passed on the news... Once this kind of thing is investigated, they will bite each other, and no one knows if someone will break into the door at night and drag themselves out.

The two fell silent again.

On the carriage, Xiaodong whispered to Qin Lie what happened in Changchun Palace just now.

"When the imperial concubine was about to leave, she asked Mrs. Ming, do you remember her?"

"I remember, I don't have a deep impression."

Madam Ming used to be like a shadow in Prince An's Mansion, silent, Qin Lie lived in the Palace at that time, and had never seen her a few times in total.

"She disappeared during King Jing's Rebellion..."

Xiaodong hadn't thought about it before, why did Mrs. Shan Shanming disappear?The courtyard where she lived was fine, and the maids were all safe and sound, but no one could tell clearly, and they were all flustered at the time, thinking that Mrs. Ming was in the house, but when they searched for her later, they couldn't find her.

Did someone kill her in the chaos?kidnapped?

Or, did she go by herself?

After Mrs. Ming disappeared, King An kept silent about the matter and did not investigate.Xiaodong used to think that because this matter involved the women's family name festival, he was afraid of hurting the reputation of the palace, so Wang An didn't investigate further.

Qin Lie's attention was not on Mrs. Ming.He held Xiaodong's hand tightly: "Concubine Ming actually broke into the Changchun Palace... What if she jumps over the wall in a hurry and hurts you and the Queen Mother? No, you can't enter the palace again in the next few days. Report a sickness."

Thinking about it, Xiaodong also felt a little scared.

She had already met a senior female official once in Ciqing Palace, and she was in a hurry at that time, maybe she was looking for Concubine Ming—or there might be other harem concubines involved in this matter.This kind of thing has always been involved in a lot, and it is undoubtedly a safe way to report illness and stay at home.

Xiaodong was always puzzled in his heart. After talking about Concubine Ming with Wang An at night, he finally couldn't help asking: "Father, is Mrs. Ming alive or dead? Do you know her whereabouts?"

Feeling very bad.Today my grand pass was stolen and all the points in it were wiped out.Fortunately, the editor helped to retrieve the password in time, so the author's background and comment area did not have any impact.

The loss of money is not very important, the key is that you suddenly lose your sense of security, just like being stripped of your clothes.

I never thought about account hacking, so I didn't bind my phone or anything.Everyone must learn from my lesson, don’t be lazy and save trouble, Ma Daha, now I regret and feel depressed~~
