Everyone has arrived, except the imperial concubine.
They were worried about Concubine Liang's body, and the weather was getting cold again. The Queen Mother and the Emperor were holding her tightly, and they didn't dare to let her touch the ground too much. They even went to get a wool felt and put it on Concubine Liang's body.
Nan Xuanjin pulled Concubine De and said something for a long time, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea. De Concubine will not respond to him again, even if it is impossible to wink at him again.
Nan Xuanjin was no longer as persistent as yesterday. He put Concubine De's hand away, silently walked to the brazier, knelt down, picked up the paper money on the side, and put it into the fire one by one.
"Mother's heart is really cruel, leaving her son alone." Nan Xuanjin's voice was hoarse, but he kept saying: "Nevertheless, even though my mother and son are separated by yin and yang, my mother and son must take good care of them. If you don't have enough money, remember to tell Erchen in your dream that Erchen is burning some for you." Nan Xuanjin said warmly.
It is not yet the auspicious time to close the coffin, so everyone just stood by and waited for the coffin to be closed, and then went forward to offer incense one by one.
The queen was standing far away from the coffin. Although she was the queen who had to take care of the mourning hall, after all, Nan Xuanjin really didn't have a good look on her, and she didn't bother to stand there.
She stood in the back and looked at everyone's expressions, but unexpectedly found that the imperial concubine hadn't come to Yongde Palace until now. She felt laughter in her heart. The noble concubine, who was a good sister, did not appear in the concubine of the German concubine now. .
She smiled sarcastically, feeling that the imperial concubine just didn't dare to come over because of her guilty conscience. After all, the concubine Liang's child was lost, and it was not her own hands. In this harem, it was the noble concubine who would do it. But she had to say that the imperial concubine's trick to kill with a knife made her admire.
Even her best sister is not spared. In terms of scheming, the queen herself is a little resigned.
The auspicious time is about to arrive, the lid of the coffin has been closed, and now we are waiting for the auspicious time to nail the coffin.
It didn't take long for the auspicious time to arrive. The imperial concubine hadn't appeared in Yongde Palace, and everyone didn't say anything.
Since Concubine De was only the concubine of the harem, even the grand funeral could only be presided over by the Minister of Rites. As soon as the auspicious time arrived, the Minister of Rites standing on one side sang loudly: "The auspicious time is here! Seal the coffin!"
The coffin had already been closed, and there were four burly men beside the coffin holding peach wood nails and nailing them to Concubine De's coffin.
Suddenly, a mutation arose. The imperial concubine did not know when to appear in Yongde Palace, and shouted loudly: "Stop!"
Everyone looked at the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine rushed into the Yongde Palace, and was tearing at the white gauze hanging from the eaves. Seeing the imperial concubine's move, it was clearly disturbing the mourning hall.
The crowd immediately froze in place. This action of the imperial concubine made it clear that she did not want Concubine De to rest in peace, and the four burly men were also called by the imperial concubine and stopped their work.
Nan Xuanjin didn't say anything, didn't even try to stop him, just stared coldly at the imperial concubine's every move, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
The queen was even more stunned. Isn't this noble concubine crazy? Disrupting the sanctuary? She is a noble concubine, and her good sister has passed away. She doesn't guard her spirit well, but instead she runs to disturb the mourning hall
As the queen, she can't ignore it. Before the emperor spoke, she stood up and shouted: "Prince! What are you doing? Why don't you stop?"
"I don't know what you are doing! How could An Ge die! Why did An Ge speak to me alive yesterday? Why are you so anxious to bury An Ge? You are the one who killed An Ge. Song!" The imperial concubine's mind was a little sluggish, and she was about to rush over to grab the queen's neck with red eyes.
The people around didn't stop the imperial concubine.
She rushed straight over, tightly pinching the queen's neck with both hands, her slender nails cut through the queen's neck, and scarlet blood flowed out.
The queen was a little breathless, she did not expect that the imperial concubine would suddenly come to such a hand.
Everyone was frightened by this sudden move, especially the concubine De's mother family who never thought that the always gentle and virtuous concubine would actually strangle the queen in public.
The first person to react was the emperor. Seeing that the queen was about to be strangled to death by the imperial concubine, he hurried over to pull the imperial concubine away. The queen was able to breathe, but because of the big inhalation, it made her cough.
"Cough... Wang Peilan! What are you doing! Are you trying to kill Ben Gong together!" The queen looked at the imperial concubine resentfully and said while coughing.
"You vicious woman! You drugged An Ge! An Ge is still alive, let me go! Go and open the coffin! An Ge is still alive!" The concubine's eyes were bloodshot, making people watch Can't help but feel a little scared.
"An Ge is dead! Why are you crazy here? Or do you want to give An Ge peace?" The queen slowed down and covered her neck with a silk handkerchief.
"Your Majesty... please open the coffin! An Ge really isn't dead!" The imperial concubine ignored the Empress and knelt down directly at the Emperor, pleading.
Although the emperor did not know why the imperial concubine did this, it is indeed not a trivial matter to come to the mourning hall. The noble concubine is also a person below one person and more than ten thousand people in the harem. language.
In addition to what the imperial concubine said before, he became suspicious of the queen. After all, the person who proposed the burial of Ange was the queen. If Ange could really be saved, but because she left the hall ahead of schedule, Concubine De lost her life. I am afraid that everyone present here is a murderer.
"Open the hall." The emperor said dully, obviously listening to the concubine's words.
The German concubine's mother's side listened to the concubine's words, and looked at the queen's eyes suddenly turned bad. Although they have always been on the opposite side of the queen, but now that Concubine De is dead, their family's pillar in the harem has fallen. If the queen did it, she would definitely not let the family behind Concubine De be spared.
So they won't stop the museum from opening, but they really have a little bit of inquiring minds. It doesn't matter if a daughter dies, what matters is how their family can continue to maintain their current status for a long time.
"Your Majesty! The museum cannot be opened!" The Queen shouted, "If the auspicious time is missed now, it will be bad!"
The queen was originally suspected of being important, and now she is not allowed to open the museum, but she has really confirmed the crime. Everyone is not a fool, and they all feel that there is something tricky in it.
The emperor ignored what the queen said, and asked the four burly men to lift the lid of the coffin. He wanted the imperial doctor to take a good look at An Ge to see if he could save him, or if he found something else on An Ge. .
Who knew that once the coffin was opened, everyone saw an incredible scene.
