Views:

Although the voice of the watch in the palace was soft, it was enough to be heard clearly on this silent night.

Tingzhu hurriedly walked into the gate of Xihe Palace, because she walked too fast, and she also broke out in a fine sweat in the autumn night. Seeing her expression, the other palace maids and eunuchs did not dare to step forward to stop her, but they were slightly uneasy, not knowing what happened.

Seeing that the lights in the inner room were on, Tingzhu didn't hesitate at the moment, so he lifted his foot and entered the house. When he entered the door, he saw that Zhuang Luoyan had just lay down, and Yunxi was about to put down the tent when Tingzhu's expression was wrong, so he stopped. In the middle of the action, he hung up the tent again, "What happened?"

"Master, the concubine Wang of Jingyu Pavilion is gone." Tingzhu panted, "There is a lot of trouble in Jingyu Pavilion right now."

"Concubine Wang of Jingyu Pavilion?" Zhuang Luoyan sat up and asked suspiciously, "Isn't Concubine Wang recovered? I saw her outside a few days ago, how can you say she is gone?"

"The servants don't know either, but I just heard from the servants of Jingyu Pavilion that Wang Concubine has been a little uneasy for the past two days, but now it's gone."

Zhuang Luoyan frowned slightly, uneasy? It went so silently again, is there really no other reason

Wang Concubine had been ill for a long time, and she was not blessed, and her mother's family was not visible. I was afraid that even if the death was a little strange, Emperor Chengxuan would not specially send someone to investigate.

"What will the emperor and the queen have to come down?" Zhuang Luoyan took a deep breath. She had no friendship with Concubine Wang, and when she heard that she died inexplicably, her palms still felt a little cool.

"Eunuch Gao of Qianzheng Palace has already passed the emperor's decree, saying that everything is in charge of the Queen's concubine, but it has been a few years since Wang Concubine entered the palace, so he will take care of his funeral affairs with the courtesy of a concubine." Tingzhu has been in the harem for many years. , How can you not guess that Wang Concubine died strangely, but the emperor didn't ask, Wang Concubine can only be so unclear.

"The gift of noble concubines," Zhuang Luoyan pulled the quilt over him and looked at the candlestick. The unloved concubines in the harem ended up so bleak, not many people even died in their hearts, but on the side of the road As if the flowers were withered, they said, "Since the emperor has already made a ruling, we will mourn according to the rules."

"Yes." Yun Xi was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhu Fu's blessing, and then put down the tent that was originally hung up again, covering the candles that were too bright in the room.

Zhuang Luoyan lay on the brocade bed, not drowsy.

"Master, do you want to put out all the candles in the house?" Yun Xi asked in a low voice outside the tent.

"Leave a cup by the door," Zhuang Luoyan closed his eyes and didn't speak again.

"Yes," Yun Xi and Tingzhu looked at each other, and after turning off the other lamps, they quietly retreated.

When she got up early in the morning, Zhuang Luoyan changed into a light-colored Luo skirt, and her headdress was changed to a too-showy emerald gemstone. Although it was not so plain, she didn't want others to think that she was still dressed beautifully and too frivolous when Wang Concubine was gone.

Sitting on the chariot to the Queen's Jingyang Palace, I saw that the concubines who had already arrived at the scene looked as usual, but their spirits were still not as good as before, and they were not dressed very gorgeously. Obviously, Jin Liangyi's lessons from the past are all in mind.

Not long after, the concubines and concubines came almost in twos and threes. When mentioning Concubine Wang, they all said that Fanghua died young, it was a pity, and they completely forgot that they didn't have much friendship with Concubine Wang before.

"Concubine Jiang Xian is here!"

Thinking of Jiang Xianconcubine and Wang Concubine living together, the expressions of the concubines present changed slightly.

"The concubine has seen the queen's concubine." Jiang Xianconcubine looked tired and looked like she had not slept all night.

"Concubine Jiang Xian doesn't have to be so polite. Concubine Wang lives in the same place with you. I think you didn't sleep well at night to take care of Concubine Wang, so please give me a seat." The queen looked as usual, and asked the eunuch to move to Xiu pier for Jiang Xian. Concubine sit down.

"Jiang Xianconcubine and Wang Concubine sisters are deeply in love, and I would like to express my condolences." Yangui Concubine comforted her mouth.

"Concubine Wang and all of us are sisters, and Concubine Yangui also wants to mourn." Jiang Xianbi said lightly, and turned to Yangui Concubine, but there was not much emotion in her eyes.

Yangui Concubine's complexion changed, and she stopped talking after looking at Jiang Xianconcubine.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little stiff, and everyone did not expect Jiang Xianconcubine, who has always been taciturn, to say such a thing, and some people were so happy that Yangui Concubine lost face and showed a mocking smile.

Zhuang Luoyan looked up and everyone was silent.

"Your Majesty's kindness is great, and he buried Wang Concubine with the ceremony of your concubine. If you want to come to Wang Concubine, you can feel at ease in the spirit of the sky." Concubine Shu Gui spoke softly. When she said this, no one dared to refute it. Do you still say that the emperor is not good enough

Zhuang Luoyan was not interested in this kind of talk. After leaving Jingyang Palace, he didn't want to sit on a chariot, and only walked with a few palace maids and eunuchs in the imperial garden to relax.

This is the life of a woman in the harem. She died at a young age. She was buried with a title that was not too small, and she also praised the emperor for his mighty grace. Zhuang Luoyan squinted and thought, why do the heroines of the novel still think about love and dislike

When passing through the imperial garden, when I heard high-fives from the front, I knew that the emperor was coming here with the imperial guard of honor. Zhuang Luoyan opened his eyes, got off the chariot, and stood aside with his head bowed. Fortunately, the autumn sun It doesn't feel hot in the sun.

Sitting in the imperial carriage, Feng Jin didn't even bother to see who was standing around him. He suddenly turned his head and saw a familiar figure standing on the side of the road with his head bowed. When he raised his hand, the imperial driver stopped.

"Zhao Chongyi?" Feng Jin lowered his head and asked Zhuang Luoyan to stand up straight: "Get out from the queen?"

Recently, due to the busy government affairs, Feng Jin rarely flips the sign of the harem, but he has not seen Zhuang Luoyan for several days. Now, seeing her standing in the sun in plain clothes, it is somewhat pleasing to the eye.

"Go back to the emperor, the concubine just came out from the queen's concubine," Zhuang Luoyan pretended to take a careful peek at the emperor, and then quickly lowered her head.

"Well," Feng Jin nodded, and suddenly said, "Since that's the case, you don't have to go back to Xihe Palace at this time, go to the Imperial Study Room to serve Mo."

Although it was said that the harem was not allowed to engage in government affairs, the women in the harem could teach the imperial study to serve Mo, but because Emperor Chengxuan seldom called harem women to serve Mo, it seemed a bit special.

In this huge harem, only Concubine Shu Gui and Xu Zhaorong have this honor and status, and now there is another Zhao Chongyi.

Not far away, a few low-ranking concubines looked at this scene with envy, and lowered their heads and whispered a few words from time to time.

"She does invite pets." Su Xiuyi sneered.

Concubine Shu Gui glanced at her indifferently, and let Bu Nian continue to move forward, but her eyes became a little colder.
