, "This is the soothing incense sent as tribute from southern Xinjiang. I heard it has miraculous effects. In the past, only the empress and concubine had it in this palace. I'm curious, who sent this?"
"You mean Empress De Fei?" Su Zhiyu lowered his voice, "Although I don't know what happened here before, Concubine De Concubine seems to be a thorn in everyone's side. What's going on?"
Lu Xiang's expression changed, and he also lowered his voice, "Don't mention this matter in this palace. The matter of Concubine De cannot be discussed."
"I am sensible. I have been aware of her affairs for a long time, but I never said anything. Because it is you Xiangxiang, I asked. You might as well tell me everything you know. This will prevent me from being caught without knowing it in the future.
It’s time to make a fuss.”
Lu Xiang nodded, "Forget it, I'll tell you. But I just listened to what my aunt said, and I don't know if it's true. This matter seems to be that Concubine De has something personal with someone, and she was
People found out. At that time, she was the favorite in the harem. The emperor was very angry when he heard about this and wanted to kill her. However, the queen begged desperately for mercy, so she was spared her life. But she was relegated to the cold palace from then on.
"
"I see." This is exactly what Su Zhiyu thought. The last time she alluded to Shui Qinglou, the reason why Emperor Wen lost his temper was indeed because of the affair with Concubine De.
"Not only that. I heard that Concubine De was already pregnant at that time. But the emperor suspected that the origin of the child was unknown, and strangled him to death in front of Concubine De on the day she gave birth to the child."
In the past, Su Zhiyu would only feel terrible. But now that she has a child, it is not only creepy, but also painful. Her hand unconsciously touched her belly. She could not imagine that someone would dare to do this to her child. If
This is someone, and even if they both die together, she will make that person pay with his life.
She looked up and saw the same expression on Lu Xiang's face. The two of them looked at each other and understood each other. Su Zhiyu smiled and said, "Let's not mention this old thing. By the way, have these things been checked?"
Although she hasn't watched many fighting scenes, she still has this common sense. She knows how many enemies she has provoked.
"They are all clothing materials and jewelry. I have put away all the ones sent by others. But the things sent by Eunuch Ling, the princess, and the third highness have been picked out separately and will be dealt with by the empress. In addition, there are also gifts from the prince's house.
.”
"What kind of gift is this?" Su Zhiyu was a little surprised. He frowned, and the events of that day resurfaced. Could the prince want to demonstrate to her again?
"It's just a painting." Lu Xiang took it over. Su Zhiyu unfolded the scroll in confusion, but it was an ordinary painting.
The woman in the painting is obviously Su Zhiyu herself. She is standing in the wind and snow, with the city shining brightly behind her. She is standing on the top of the city. Thousands of troops and horses are fighting at her feet, and corpses are scattered all over the field and blood is flowing in rivers.
She, Pei Donglang, and the prince stood on top of the bones and looked at each other from a distance. The firelight reflected on her face, and a tear fell in the corner of her eye.
Su Zhiyu closed the scroll and sighed softly. Lu Xiang asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Su Zhiyu shook her head. In the past, she only regarded the prince as an enemy, but today it seems that the person who understands her best is the prince. It's a pity.
She met Pei Donglang first, so they were destined to be enemies.
