Elegant and soft yarn, falling to the ground elegantly.
With a quiet and smiling clean face, plain makeup, and an emerald jade hairpin stuck in her temples. Concubine Shu stepped into Qianning Palace gracefully, followed by Eunuch Lu, the eunuch in charge of the emperor's side.
Eunuch Lu was holding a plate with a roll of bright yellow silk on it.
Yi Qingya smiled faintly and said: "The concubines next to me now regard Qianning Palace as a scourge. I didn't expect that my sister would come here today, which surprised me."
Concubine Shu smiled sweetly in return. She slowly stepped forward and suddenly raised her eyes. Her eyes were as sharp as a sword, sharp and cold.
"Don't you know, sister?" The voice seemed to come from hell, gloomy and terrifying. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Eunuch Lu beside her.
Eunuch Lu immediately understood. He picked up the bright yellow silk roll on the plate and slowly unfolded it.
"Even after committing a crime, you can listen to your orders elegantly!" Eunuch Lu's top-notch voice echoed in Qianning Palace.
"Yi Qingya accepts the decree!" Yi Qingya knelt down calmly and listened to the imperial decree issued by the emperor.
"After committing the crime, I also poisoned the palace maid, framed the concubines, and murdered the prince. I have failed in my wife's morality and cannot bear the important responsibility of motherly care for the world. Now I will abolish the title of queen, take back the phoenix seal, and move into Hengwu Yuan for Qingxiu and self-reflection from now on. I will not be allowed to There is a mistake. Take the order!" Eunuch Lu shouted.
Yi Qingya's face remained as usual. She received the imperial edict and said coldly: "The sinful girl accepts the edict." She stood up slowly, and Eunuch Lu stood beside him and said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Yi Qingya, please hand over the Phoenix Seal. The Emperor has ordered that today From now on, Concubine Shu will take charge of the harem and control the Phoenix Seal."
Empress Shu Fei looked at Yi Qingya with a cold smile, but she could not see any expression of pain on Yi Qingya's face. Her expression was very peaceful and peaceful, as if she was relieved.
As soon as she was surprised, Yi Qingya had already handed the phoenix seal into the hands of Concubine Shu. "This phoenix seal originally belonged to you. If I give it to you today, it can be regarded as returning it to its original owner."
Empress Shu Fei was shocked. She stared at Yi Qingya, but found that she spit out a mouthful of black blood.
"Sister Qingya!" She threw away the phoenix seal in her hand in panic and hugged Yi Qingya, whose body was constantly falling.
Yi Qingya struggled to open her eyes and smiled softly. "Liu Li, you are finally willing to call me sister Qingya. Haha, I haven't heard this title in twenty-three years."
"Sister Qingya, why are you doing this? The Emperor has no intention of killing you, so why should you-" She painfully looked at Yi Qingya who was spitting out black blood, and in her eyes, there was a complex mixture of love and hate. light.
"You go out first." Yi Qingya looked at Eunuch Lu beside her and waved.
"Father-in-law, please go out." There was an air of sadness in Concubine Shu's eyes.
Eunuch Lu nodded. "Our family will go out first." He retreated quietly.
Yi Qingya immediately held Concubine Shu's hand and said: "Liu Li, I know what you are thinking. However, I have been climbing up all my life and finally climbed to the top, but now I have to live in the cold palace all my life. Can I be willing to end up like this? I can’t. With this way of living, I would rather die while enjoying the scenery. Liuli, do you know what I ate? It’s filial piety soup, it’s filial piety soup, hehe, hehe——” She sneered.
"Could it be him? How could he, how could he treat you like this, sister? How could he know that my sister was for him back then, but, but -" Concubine Shu was so excited that she couldn't control herself.
"Stop talking, Liuli, the matter has come to this, there is no point in talking more. I can at least be worthy of him, and I have kept my promise. Liuli, you were right at the beginning. This palace is a place where people can eat people. Not only does it
I have eaten away the friendship between you and me as sisters, and also eaten away my conscience. Liuli, after twenty-three years, I can finally truly say I'm sorry to you. Liuli, if it weren't for the position of queen, your child Quan
Son, he will not be killed by me. Now I will give this life back to you, Liuli, and I will go to the underworld to take care of Quan'er and be his mother, okay?" Yi Qingya's mind began to fade.
"Okay, everything is okay. Sister Qingya, please stop talking. I'm going to ask the imperial doctor to come. Please wait for me for a while." Empress Shufei wanted to leave, but Yi Qingya held her hand tightly.
"Don't go, Liuli, I know I'm dying. Just stay with me here and stay with me for a while. Liuli, I'm so cold. Liuli, do you know, I dreamed about my poor infant daughter last night?
, she cried, saying that I don’t want her. Liuli, you know, in fact, I really want her, really, really want her, and I don’t want to kill her. I don’t want to—” Yi Qingya threw herself at her.
In the arms of Concubine Shu, she began to cry.
"Sister, I know, I know, you are doing it all for him. Sister, one day, he will regret it, he will regret everything he has done to you, sister -" she
Crying and hugging Yi Qingya who is getting heavier and heavier.
"No - Liuli, please don't say that. I don't regret it, really. If I have another chance, Liuli, I won't regret it either. Promise me, promise me, Liuli, in the future he -
- If he is - you, you have to - protect him, protect him." Yi Qingya held on to her last strength and stared at Concubine Shu.
"I promise you, sister, that's all I promise you." Empress Shufei was already crying.
"Thank you, Liuli, in the next life, I hope that you and I will be born into an ordinary family and be a good couple -" Yi Qingya suddenly lowered her hands and died.
"Sister Qingya, sister Qingya -" Concubine Shu hugged Yi Qingya's body that was getting colder. She cried painfully, as if she had vented all the pain she had suffered in the past twenty-three years.
Outside the door, Eunuch Lu heard the miserable cry of Concubine Shu. He rushed in in panic, only to see Concubine Shu hugging Yi Qingya's body and crying sadly.
He stepped forward and helped Concubine Shu up. "Your Majesty, please forgive me and take care of yourself. Your Majesty is still waiting for your reply."
Concubine Shu glanced at him coldly. "You go and repay the emperor. I will guard here. If the emperor blames you, I will bear all the responsibility."
Eunuch Lu did not dare to look at Concubine Shu's sharp and cold eyes, so he retreated quietly.
Concubine Shu looked at the gorgeous and wealthy Qianning Palace, and looked at Yi Qingya who used to be unparalleled in her glory. Now everything has become a thing of the past. After her death, even a eunuch ignored her.
So, why did she bother to climb to a high position in the first place, and what about her, she is still here, what is she doing? She thought that watching Yi Qingya fall hard from a high place, she would feel the pleasure of revenge, but now, she is
After leaving, she was in pain, as if she was tasting a cup of bitter tea in life.
Fame, fortune, wealth and splendor are all gone in the blink of an eye.
Does she still want to follow in her footsteps and live in this cannibal Qianning Palace? No - she shook her head desperately.
She walked slowly to the entrance hall of Qianning Palace, stared at the three powerful characters, laughed sarcastically, and then slowly walked into the drizzle, her figure gradually blurred and blurred in the rain -
"Go back to the emperor, it's not good!" Eunuch Lu stepped into the imperial study in panic.
"Why are you so alarmed?" The emperor was writing.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has committed suicide by taking poison!" Eunuch Lu reported back.
The pen in his hand fell on the desk with a bang, and the splash of ink destroyed the large characters he had just written.
"I understand, you can go down." After a while, the emperor came back to his senses and frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty, and Concubine Shu—" Eunuch Lu looked at the Emperor's face carefully.
"What's wrong with her? I gave her a chance, but what else does she want? Everyone has left." The emperor sounded slightly dissatisfied.
"Back to the Emperor, Concubine Shu went to Luo'antang. She got her hair cut off and became a nun. This is the black hair she cut off. She asked our family to bring it back, saying that she would accompany the Empress and accumulate good virtues for her so that she can be reborn in a good family. "Eunuch Lu placed the green silk wrapped in white silk beside the emperor's desk.
The emperor frowned and put down his imperial pen.
"That's fine, just leave. Eunuch Lu, since the queen has passed away, I will give her a grand burial according to the queen's standards." The emperor ordered indifferently.
"Yes, Your Majesty, let's go get ready right now." Eunuch Lu knew that the Emperor needed to be quiet at this moment, so he immediately withdrew.
The emperor turned around and looked at the misty rain outside the window with his hands behind his hands. His memories seemed to stop at twenty-five years ago.
The pair of delicate and delicate women walked through the alley after the rain, and the innocent smiles on their faces poured into his eyes like a clear spring.
At that time, on a rainy night, red sleeves were fragrant, and beauties stood side by side, smiling.
Nowadays, I am dead and walking, so sad.
It is really like what the Buddhist scriptures say, life is like a dream or an illusion, the morning is like morning dew and the evening is like clouds!
The emperor sighed softly.
In Cining Palace, after the Queen Mother heard the news, she sighed slightly and entered the Buddhist hall.
Dong dong dong——dong dong dong——
The sound of wooden fish beat all night long.
It cleared up after the rain and the sun bloomed. In the Yuhe Pavilion, Yi Fangfei heard the news that the Queen had passed away and Concubine Shu had lost her hair early in the morning. She was shocked. She thought about going to worship the Queen, but news came from the secret guard that the Queen The empress left a will, so that she did not have to send it off, but she only hoped that she would keep her promise.
In the blink of an eye, Yi Fangfei understood Yi Qingya's intentions. She really couldn't go to sacrifice at this moment.
As for the Fourth Prince and the Ninth Prince, Yi Fangfei sent people to inquire about the news, but received a rejection. It was said that the Fourth Prince's palace was recently closed and fasted for seven days, and no one refused to visit.
After hearing this, Yifangfei said nothing.
Although she was full of questions, she couldn't go to Luo'antang to find Concubine Shu and ask her why she wanted to become a nun. She really couldn't figure it out. In the current situation, with the empress gone, she was the only one who had the chance to be crowned empress. Why is it that when she is close to the top, she has to cut off her hair and become a nun, always accompanying Qingdeng?
Wu Fengying looked at her frowning, and he gently smoothed them. "Fei'er, Wu doesn't like your frowning. You should be happy."
Yi Fangfei hugged Wu Fengying lightly, and she smiled lightly. "If Wu doesn't like it, Fei'er just won't frown in the future. But Wu has to agree to Fei'er, and Wu is not allowed to frown."
Wu Fengying's ice-purple pupils opened slightly, and a touch of warm light floated in the corners of his eyes.
"good."
"By the way, Wu, would you please accompany me to Yunyin Temple to ask for a fortune tomorrow?" Yi Fangfei asked, tilting her head.
"good."
"Then I'm going to ride a horse, not a sedan chair."
"good."
"Then I want to eat the side dishes made by Wu, and Wu wants to cook for Fei'er."
