Empress Dowager Li heard that her confidant, the old eunuch, was telling her that burning charcoal in the pavilion in winter might cause terrible consequences of poisoning.
The rosy plump lips opened slightly, as if a little surprised.
Naturally, she would not be surprised to see the death of a useless concubine in the palace. She was even relieved and felt a little relieved.
An idea emerged from the Queen Mother's mind.
Who did it?
Is it really because of the smoke poison from burning charcoal for heating?
He pondered for a moment.
Queen Mother Li wiped away all the distracting thoughts in her heart. No matter how the rogue named Zheng died, he felt refreshed.
Soon alert again.
The Queen Mother hurriedly chanted in her heart the God of Infinite Blessings and Longevity.
"Sin, sin, sin."
Think about it.
Queen Mother Li asked worriedly: "Is there such a thing in the palace?"
The old eunuch hurriedly said respectfully: "To return to the Queen Mother, in the past years... some of the female officials and eunuchs in the palace also died of poisoning..."
Queen Mother Li was startled and hurriedly urged: "Then you have to be more vigilant!"
now.
The Queen Mother was reminded by the death of Zheng Shuyi's biological father, and she quickly ordered the female officials and eunuchs in the palace to immediately check the charcoal basins in the Nuan Pavilion to prevent such a tragedy from happening again.
So on New Year's Eve.
The Forbidden City suddenly became noisy, and a campaign to prevent smoking and poisoning was launched.
Time has passed in the blink of an eye.
As the bell of the Supervisor of Ceremonies rang, it announced the arrival of the tenth year of Wanli.
The bell falls.
In Yanxi Palace.
Zheng Shuyi, who had experienced the pain of losing her father, still kept crying.
The noise caused no peace to the neighbors.
Empress Dowager Li finally turned against her, her delicate face tightened, and she said coldly: "Go...tell her to stop crying. Why are you crying in mourning during the Chinese New Year!"
The old eunuch hurriedly responded and hurriedly left Cining Palace with a few skilled eunuchs and walked towards the courtyard where Zheng Shuyi lived.
After a while.
Yanxi Palace.
Zhu Yijun was drinking wine and eating small dishes with his concubine Zheng Jing'er, enjoying the most important happy time of the year.
But the bad news suddenly came: Concubine Ai's father died of smoke poisoning last night.
It was freezing cold when I found it early this morning...
Unprepared, Zheng Jing'er collapsed to the ground and started crying heart-wrenchingly. Her usual charm and affection were completely gone.
Looking at my beloved concubine who kept crying.
Zhu Yijun was filled with unhappiness, so he had to patiently comfort her, but his usually bright-eyed, white-toothed, romantic concubine was now reduced to tears.
And the crying sound is too scary.
soon.
Along with the confidant eunuchs around the Queen Mother, several powerful and brave eunuchs hurried over and stood outside the door with their heads bowed and whispered.
"The Empress Dowager ordered her to stop crying and making trouble."
Zhu Yijun was a little helpless.
Advise again and again.
But Zheng Shuyi didn't listen and kept crying. Her pretty face, which was as beautiful as a flower, was full of tears and her hair was disheveled.
finally……
No matter how much he likes her, no matter how obsessed he is, looking at her as a shrew, Zhu Yijun can't help but feel a little disgust in his heart.
"snort!"
A cold snort.
The emperor finally turned his back. He put his arms behind his back and lowered his head. He walked away from the Yanxi Palace with a displeased look on his face. After leaving the door, he went straight to the palace of the Queen and the Queen.
I saw the emperor leaving.
The old eunuch's face darkened, and he snorted coldly: "Here comes... Palm!"
Several powerful and brave eunuchs rushed in fiercely and rudely, and lifted up the pitiful Zheng Jing'er.
He slapped her with a big mouth, and Zheng Shuyi, who was loved by the emperor, immediately stopped crying for the first time in her life.
Zheng Jing'er tasted the malice inside this palace.
This night.
Including the Empress of Ming Dynasty, many concubines were delighted and applauded, which made the atmosphere even more festive.
early morning.
New Year's Day.
It's freezing cold outside.
It was quiet inside the Shen Mansion.
New Year's Eve.
The husband is not at home.
Under the red brocade wrap, Zhang Jingxiu didn't sleep well. He tossed and turned on the hot bed in the Nuang Pavilion all night, and fell asleep only at dawn.
In the darkness.
The cloud-like hair was scattered on the side of the pillow where the mandarin duck was playing in the water, and the smooth and fair skin fell on the outside of the brocade quilt. With the heat brought by the fire bed, the bright and pretty face was a little bright red.
I don’t know when.
As the door opened gently.
Shen Lie walked in with a chill all over his body, turned around and closed the door gently, took off his bearskin hat and blouse, revealing a bright red face.
He rubbed his face.
He opened the window slightly and finally got warm, and Shen Lie couldn't wait to get into bed.
A slight chill woke Zhang Jingxiu up.
The beautiful lady, who was full of surprise, was about to speak when she was hugged by Shen Lie's long arms. The beautiful lady, who had been frightened for several days, hugged her back enthusiastically.
When the outburst of longing turns into a fiery lingering love.
There is spring in every room.
Shen Lie, who seemed to be particularly excited, lifted the brocade quilt and embraced the beautiful woman in his arms.
A cry.
The saliva soaked the silk and satin, and the hot bright red turned into a soul-stirring crimson, while Shen Lie's big hands eagerly explored the secrets.
"Husband..."
Zhang Jingxiu closed her bright eyes slightly, panted, and responded confusedly: "Where have you been..."
But her vague murmur gradually turned into a slightly painful crooning.
It took a long time to calm down.
Its daybreak.
In the tenth year of Wanli, it is the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
However, Shen Lie seemed very tired and just hugged his beloved wife and fell asleep. It was not until three o'clock in the morning that there was a rapid knock on the door outside the new house.
There's a knock on the door.
Shen Lie opened his eyes alertly and said angrily, "Who is it?"
Let no one sleep!
Li Rusong's familiar teasing voice came from outside the door: "It's Li... You are so good, man... You don't even know what day it is today?"
Shen Lie was helpless.
He had no choice but to get up while cursing.
"Wait!"
beside.
Zhang Jingxiu, who was hugging him tightly, also had a red face. He used his long pink arms to support his delicate and graceful body and sat up. Together with her husband, she was busy looking for her bellyband.
A lot of hustle and bustle.
Only then did Shen Lie remember that today was the first day of the Lunar New Year and he should wear new clothes. Several maids had already prepared new clothes.
Just set it aside.
So the couple was busy again, and then they slowly put on their clothes, put on their makeup, and Shen Lie opened the door.
It was already bright outside, and Li Rusong, who was standing outside, sniffed on purpose, earning an angry look from Shen Lie.
"what you do?"
Even if you have a good relationship, you can’t behave like this!
Even if he is a good family man and does not avoid his wife, how can a grown man in this world run into someone else's house so early in the morning?
Another day I will go to your house early in the morning.
Are you happy?
But Li Rusong ignored him and took a step forward to hold Shen Lie's arm tightly. Then his burning eyes looked from head to feet, and then from feet to head.
Shen Lie threw away his hand and said angrily: "What are you going to do, Qiu Ba?"
