Outside Zhaohe Hall, the sound of sticks scolding Xiangbi and Liu Guiren could be heard one after another. It was the sound of a board being hit on the body. Every blow made Emperor Tianwu feel comfortable.
Last night was a shame. Although he was the emperor, although he had countless beauties in the harem, and although those two people had been favored in the past, he had never done such a thing as summoning three concubines to sleep with him in one night. Such debauchery was not the same as
What's the difference between animals? If word like this spreads outside, where will the emperor's face be put?
Thinking of this, I felt that the process of killing with canes outside was too slow, and I couldn't help but shout anxiously: "Fighter, faster! Fight faster! Block their mouths! I don't want to hear their screams!"
At this time, Concubine Yuan Shu sat obediently on Emperor Tianwu's lap. It seemed that she was constantly comforting Emperor Tianwu, but in fact she was also comforting herself. When the two were dragged out, they said
What? They said: They don’t know anything! I don’t know how they got here. They were obviously sleeping in their own palace courtyard, and they ended up here as soon as they opened their eyes?
Such words made Concubine Yuan Shu think of two things that Xuan Tianming once told her. One was that when Prince Sheng's Mansion was stolen, all the gold and silver treasures disappeared overnight.
Suddenly, it was as if they had disappeared out of thin air. All the eyes of the secret guards were white, and they didn't even look at a bird. There was one thing more terrifying than losing money, and that was the Xiaoxiao trick they arranged for Feng Zirui.
The person in question came to her son's bed inexplicably. Like Xiangbi and Liu Guiren, he had no idea about the process and just stood out so unexpectedly that he was caught off guard.
Her intuition told her that this series of incidents were all done by the same person or the same group of people. This was terrible. The other party could actually do things so seamlessly. If the other party had murderous intentions last night, it would be the same as killing herself.
Simple?
When she thought that she might die in her sleep, Concubine Yuan Shu shivered suddenly. Emperor Tianwu noticed it and quickly asked: "My dear concubine, what's the matter?" Looking at Concubine Yuan Shu's pale face, he felt that she must also be the same.
She felt ashamed of what happened last night, so he comforted her and said: "The matter is over, I will order the queen... Oh no, I will let you, my beloved concubine, organize the harem yourself, and you will deal with all the people who don't like it, so as to ensure that there will be no more troubles in the future."
There won't be any similar incidents, okay? My dear, don't be afraid, no matter what time comes, I will definitely protect you and never let you get hurt at all."
When Tianwu said this, his head was not very clear. He would have this feeling from time to time, feeling a little confused, having a headache, and feeling a little dizzy. If he was alone, he would feel particularly uncomfortable when he gets this feeling.
He felt uncomfortable and had nowhere to go. But once Concubine Yuan Shu was around, it would be much easier. As long as he hugged her, as long as he kept saying nice things, as long as he could make the beloved concubine happy and make her smile, he would do anything.
All the pain you endure will disappear.
Emperor Tianwu thought that he must be suffering from some disease, and Concubine Yuan Shu was the best medicine to cure his disease. He liked being with Concubine Yuan Shu, as if his heart had found its home, and that kind of love made him
He wished he could show his heart to the other party, and even more wished he could give up his country. How many times had he had the impulse to directly pass the throne to his son with Concubine Yuan Shu, but as soon as those words came to his lips,
It was as if there was another force pulling the words back, making it impossible for him to say them anyway.
His mind is actually very chaotic. Only Concubine Yuan Shu can calm down by his side. He enjoys this kind of tranquility and this feeling. Therefore, no matter what, no one can take his beloved concubine away from him. Everything makes him happy.
He would get rid of anything and anyone that made his beloved concubine unhappy, even if he emptied the harem.
At this time, Wu Ying, the newly promoted chief eunuch, came into the inner hall and reported: "Your Majesty, Xiang Concubine and Liu Guiren have died. This corpse..."
"Throw it away!" Emperor Tianwu waved his hand impatiently, "Throw it as far away as possible!"
"This slave accepts your order." After Wu Ying finished speaking, he glanced at Concubine Yuan Shu again, and then said: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. The beautiful concubine..."
"What's wrong with the beautiful concubines?" Tianwu was fed up with hearing this, "None of these women are living a good life and are doing some mischief all day long. If they don't want to live anymore, they can just die, and no one will stop them!"
Wu Ying's heart trembled and she felt that the current emperor was really completely different from before. His temperament changed at any time, and it changed too quickly. Although he had taken refuge with Concubine Yuan Shu, and although he hoped that the emperor would be as confused as possible, that day
When Emperor Wu's temperament became too obvious, he had to make more calculations in his mind. "Your Majesty!" Wu Ying said: "The beautiful concubine is dead. She was tied with stones and thrown into the lake in the Imperial Garden last night. She drowned.
Dead."
"What?" Concubine Yuan Shu suddenly screamed, jumped up from Emperor Tianwu, and asked Wu Ying directly: "Did the beautiful concubine be thrown into the lake? Or was it the lake in the imperial garden?"
Wu Ying nodded: "Hui Niang, that's right."
"This..." She suddenly thought of what she heard yesterday about something happening at the Imperial Garden. The beautiful concubines bullied Feng Zirui and disturbed the queen. The demon Feng Zhaolian who lived in Jingci Palace kicked her into the lake on the spot.
A Qi concubine drowned in the house, and that night, Xiang concubine, Liu Guiren, and now the beautiful concubine were lost one after another. She vaguely seemed to have a clue, but she couldn't figure it out at the moment.
Emperor Tianwu took her hand and asked: "My beloved concubine, what's wrong?"
Concubine Yuan Shu's face turned pale, as if she had been greatly frightened. Emperor Tianwu scolded Wu Ying: "My empress is timid, why did you say such bloody words in front of her? Get out quickly! Whoever you love will die."
Death, as long as my beloved concubine is well, you will have nothing to repay!"
Wu Ying bowed and walked out of the inner hall, but Concubine Yuan Shu was really frightened. She suddenly realized that these four people had done the same thing before they died, which was to bully Feng Zirui. Now the four people
They are all dead, so what does that mean? It means that someone is taking revenge for Feng Zirui, and in this world, who else is the most protective of Feng Zirui besides his sister Feng Yuheng? But Feng Yuheng...
...Could it be that...she is a demon? Otherwise, how could she be so capable?
Concubine Yuan Shu suddenly felt that the palace was full of evil, and she felt a little chilly. Even the hand held by Emperor Tianwu became cold and cold. No matter how much Emperor Tianwu rubbed it, it could not be warmed back. She and
Emperor Tianwu resigned and said he wanted to go back to Cunshan Palace to rest. Emperor Tianwu didn't want her to go, but when he saw that his beloved concubine looked really bad, what happened that night made him feel pity for Concubine Yuan Shu, so
He quickly said: "Then my beloved concubine will be driven back by my sword. Let's see who dares to bully my beloved concubine."
Concubine Yuan Shu thanked her hurriedly, sat on the banquet and returned to her palace. As soon as she entered the house, she drove out all the servants, leaving only Yuexiu alone. Yuexiu could see the fear in her master's heart and whispered
She comforted her: "Don't think too much, Madam. The matter has come to this, and we can only go on like this. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we have to face them head-on. We must not be knocked down by those things." After she finished speaking, she offered herself again.
Analysis: "My Lady, tell me, could the person who did this be the demon next to the Queen? I heard that he was originally the prince of Qianzhou, but he was harmed by the former king of Qianzhou into a man and a woman.
Such people are monsters, and only monsters can do monster things!"
Yuexiu's words also reminded Concubine Yuan Shu, yes, there is also Feng Zhaolian! Maybe she thought too much. Feng Yuheng was outside the palace. The palace was now so tightly guarded. How could she enter?
Yes. And Feng Zhaolian is in the palace. Since he can kick one into the lake, he can also kill the other three. Maybe Feng Zhaolian did this. After all, that person was Qian Zhou
The royal family may have some special methods, such as drugging or something else. Even if it doesn't work, isn't it still his face that is stunning in the world!
But thinking about what happened in Prince Sheng's Mansion before, she felt uneasy. In addition to Prince Sheng's Mansion, the eunuch Wu Ying also quietly mentioned to her yesterday that her house was suddenly vacated.
It looks like Prince Sheng's Mansion was stolen. In this case, the crisis is lurking around her, but she can't even catch her. This is terrible!
Yuexiu handed Concubine Yuan Shu a bowl of hot tea to calm her shock, but she heard Concubine Yuan Shu gnashing her teeth and saying: "Wait! When I take the position of Queen Mother one day, I will kill them all! Kill them all.
!" In an instant, a look of violence appeared on Concubine Yuan Shu's face, and even Yuexiu, her maid who had been with her for many years, couldn't help but shudder.
There was chaos in the palace, and in Prince Yu's Mansion outside the palace, Xuan Tianming also rushed back from the camp. Hearing that there was no morning court today, he rushed to Prince Chun's Mansion to meet Xuan Tianhua. But Bai Ze was attacked by Feng Yuheng
After stopping, she said to Bai Ze: "I have long wanted to give you leave to go to Ji'an County to see Furong. It's almost the New Year's Eve. The time is too tight. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it on New Year's Eve."
, you might as well leave immediately, arrive a day earlier if you can, and I will meet with Xuan Tianming on the other side."
Bai Ze was very moved after hearing this. Otherwise, people have to be comprehensive! The master he followed was cold-faced and never thought of such trivial things, but the mistress he found was a kind person! Not only did he want to
He was attentive and considerate, and extremely generous and gentle. He thought about Furong every day, so he took the initiative to give himself a holiday.
It's a pity that even if Feng Yuheng gives him this leave, he can't leave. He told Feng Yuheng: "In this situation, I can't leave. The capital is surrounded by dangers, and palace coup may break out anytime and anywhere.
I have to stay with His Highness. Thanks to the princess for her kindness, Bai Ze takes it heartily. As for Furong... I will go see her again after the situation in Beijing stabilizes."
Feng Yuheng had known that this would be the result, so she was not surprised. She just nodded silently and said nothing. In such troubled times, let alone lovers in long-distance places, even people who live in the capital cannot meet each other every day.
, Bai Ze is a loyal subordinate. It is his pride to choose to protect his master at this time.
Watching Bai Ze catch up with Xuan Tianming and go to Prince Chun's Mansion, Feng Yuheng turned around and went back, thinking of taking a break to catch up on her sleep. At this time, she saw a guard from Prince Yu's Mansion riding back from outside, leaving
She was calling her from afar: "Princess! Princess, please wait, my subordinates have something to report——"
