Ye Zheng couldn't ask a result, because the whole day, no matter how busy the eunuchs and maids in the palace, the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty, including the concubines in the harem were, Zhu Feng didn't even show his face.
until the next morning.
The cloudy rain also fell to the next morning, and the heavy dark clouds could not be dispelled, like a stone pressing on people's hearts.
Eunuch Yu and the others stood at the door, looking inside cautiously.
Because Zhu Feng never showed up, and even the door couldn't be opened, they didn't know whether he would still be able to leave the imperial study room as scheduled, and really set off for Beijing today as he said.
Everyone stood at the door, looking a little dazed.
Around, the lanterns swayed with the wind, and the light wavered.
At this time, there was only a sound of "squeak", and the door finally opened. Immediately, everyone raised their heads, only to see that the room was pitch black, and a tall figure slowly came out of the darkness.
It's Zhu Feng.
His face was expressionless, and there was no warmth in his deep eyes, and he gave everyone a cold look.
And as soon as they saw him, everyone immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng said lightly, "What are you all doing here?"
"Your servant, please wait here for the emperor."
"I'm going back to Beijing today, what should I do, what should I do."
"yes."
Eunuch Yu hurriedly waved to everyone, and everyone dispersed immediately. When Zhu Feng walked under the eaves, someone immediately stepped forward with an umbrella.
He said lightly: "Let's go."
Soon, in the rain, rows of figures carrying lanterns quickly shuttled through the imperial city, came out of each palace, and gathered at the gate of the palace.
The concubines in each palace naturally arrived very early.
Everyone heard that the emperor stayed in the imperial study all day yesterday and did not show up. Everyone was worried, and some people looked at Concubine Ning with a little bit of a good mood.
After all, the emperor used to stay at Jianfu Palace, but now that he suddenly stopped going to her place, everyone thought it was a joke again.
Someone deliberately asked her: "Ningfei, how are you resting these two days?"
Under the firelight, a faint smile appeared on Feng Qianyan's face, ignoring the provocations of others.
Because, she already knew what happened.
Xu Miaoyin, who was standing aside, had a panoramic view of this scene and didn't say anything.
After a while, the emperor arrived.
Everyone knelt down and bowed down. Because Feng Qianyan was canonized as Concubine Ning, she naturally stood in front this time. She looked up cautiously. Bing's eyes fell.
There was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
Zhu Feng glanced at everyone.
Naturally, I also saw her.
Then he said, "Let's go."
After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and asked everyone to get on the carriage. At this moment, Empress Xu Miaoyin was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, there is still one person missing."
"..."
When she said this, everyone froze for a moment.
In fact, of course everyone knows that there is one person missing.
The princess is not here.
But, everyone knows it, and no one is willing to mention it. After all, the emperor hates noble concubines so much now. Whoever presupposes her on the emperor is making himself unhappy
Sure enough, Zhu Feng's footsteps faltered.
He didn't turn his head, but he could see in the firelight that one of his temples bulged slightly, as if he was clenching his teeth forcefully.
Shen Sheng said: "Huh?"
Although everyone around showed cautious expressions, Xu Miaoyin, the queen behind her, still said softly, "Your concubine, you haven't arrived yet."
Everyone was so quiet that they couldn't even hear their breathing.
However, the eyebrow lawsuit was fierce.
After a long time, Zhu Feng sneered: "A concubine? Is such a sinful woman worthy to be my concubine?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Miaoyin was startled, even Eunuch Yu and Ye Zheng who were serving beside him widened their eyes in shock, Xu Miaoyin subconsciously said: "The emperor means—"
Zhu Feng said coldly: "She doesn't deserve to be treated like a concubine anymore."
After speaking, he stepped into the carriage.
Xu Miaoyin was startled, and suddenly understood something, and then looked back, in the long line behind the carriage, there were some low-level servants accompanying the carriage, they could not ride in the carriage, they could only follow Go behind the carriage.
"this-"
She hesitated for a moment, but Zhu Feng had already gotten into the carriage, and the curtain was thrown down heavily.
At this time, Concubine Hui and Concubine Ning looked at each other, and Wu Wan's face showed a look of joy that she could hardly contain herself, and she murmured: "This, this is great, that bitch finally—should be Let her suffer a little."
Gao Yurong on the side was also overjoyed, but also a little puzzled: "Why so suddenly?"
Everyone has such doubts in their hearts.
After being thrown into the cold palace, the emperor asked Ye Zheng to deliver things to the cold palace. In fact, this matter cannot be hidden from others, so everyone knew that although the emperor was angry with the imperial concubine, he still retained a sliver of friendship.
But this time—
It's completely unfeeling.
Did something happen yesterday, or the day before yesterday
Only Feng Qianyan, Concubine Ning who was standing in the crowd, had a gleam in her eyes, and the smile on the corner of her mouth disappeared so quickly that almost no one noticed.
If it wasn't for Li Bushang protecting King Wei, he would have stood beside him.
He can't see it either.
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, but remained silent.
In this somewhat weird atmosphere of silence, in the eyes of everyone, there was either joy or ridicule, and they got into their carriages one after another with expressions of watching the show.
As for Wei Wang Zhu Chengxuan, his brows were already frowned at this time. He walked up to the queen and said softly: "Mother, is this true? Father, he really treats the noble concubine like this?"
"Don't talk too much."
Xu Miaoyin only confessed: "Take care of your sister and don't let her have any accidents."
"I know, I have been looking at peace of mind."
"Um."
On the other side, Concubine Hui was about to get into the carriage, but she kept looking "reluctantly" at the back of the line, those low-level court ladies and little eunuchs who were drenched in the rain.
Gao Yurong said: "Ma'am? What's wrong?"
Wu Wan smiled and said, "I really want to go over and see what that bitch looks like now."
Gao Yurong also smiled and said: "I also want to go and have a look, but it's raining so heavily and we're about to leave soon, so your empress should not make any trouble."
"..."
"After all, there are still opportunities in the future."
"You're right," Wu Wan laughed: "The days to come are still long, I have plenty of time to 'visit' her."
After speaking, he got into the carriage.
Soon, Yu Jia left the old imperial palace in Jinling and headed north in the pattering rain.
