After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

"Brother, what did the Queen Mother say just now?" Lu Chuyi's face looked a little worried.

Lu Ran smiled at him and whispered, "I didn't say anything. You don't have to worry about me."

Lu Chuyi knew her brother's temperament and didn't want others to worry about his affairs, so she kept everything in her heart.

"I haven't been able to enter the palace these days. How have you been? My grandmother has asked me several times at home, worried that you are not having a good time in the palace." Lu Ran said with concern.

Zheng Wanyan shook her head gently and said slowly, "Brother, don't worry about me. Everything is fine in the palace. The Queen Mother has always been very nice to us concubines. As long as I behave myself in the future, the Queen Mother will not make things difficult for me."

"Besides, I still have my brother and sister-in-law. My sister-in-law is the cousin of the Empress Dowager. Because of this relationship, no one in the palace will make things difficult for me. Brother, don't worry." Lu Chuyi has always been very open-minded. Although Sister Zhang is gone, she believes that Sister Zhang is not dead and must have gone to find her own happiness.

In this palace, apart from the Fourth Princess who would often accompany her, most of the time she could only sit there alone, sometimes for most of the day. This palace was really boring!

Lu Chuyi forced a smile, without revealing any flaws on her face.

"That's good. After all, it is the Lu family that has let you down. If we had made plans earlier, you wouldn't have become a widow at such a young age." Lu Ran regretted it very much. He felt very bad when he thought that his only sister would have to live out her life alone in this deep palace.

"Brother, don't say that. Everyone has his own destiny. This is my destiny, and I will accept it. There is nothing wrong with staying in the palace. As a concubine of the late emperor, living in Shou'an Palace, no one will deliberately disturb me, and my life is a rare leisurely one. I can grow flowers and vegetables, play shuttlecock with the fourth princess, and catch butterflies. The days will pass one by one, and such days are not necessarily bad. At least, I am very satisfied now." The expression on Lu Chuyi's face was very clear. Things had already happened, so don't blame the world. The most important thing is to live every day well.

Lu Ran looked at Lu Chuyi in front of him and felt that she had grown up and become sensible. She was no longer the little girl who used to cry behind him.

"Chu Yi, you have grown up!" Lu Ran's face was full of guilt and self-blame.

"You have to grow up eventually. How can you be ignorant and act foolish all your life?" Lu Chuyi smiled with relief. She should have grown up from the day she entered the palace, but at that time, she was too slow and couldn't understand some things.

"Fortunately, my brother can come to the palace often, and I can see her from afar. This is already very good. My sister-in-law can also come to the palace often to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. I am really happy to have my brother and sister-in-law accompany me." Lu Chuyi said with a smile.

"Brother, it's getting late. I should go back." After saying this, Lu Chuyi slowly turned around, and tears immediately formed in the corners of his eyes.

Lu Ran's face was very heavy, and his eyes were fixed on her back.

Weiyang Palace

Zheng Xiyan was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed and taking a rest, looking relaxed and contented. Shuang Ning carefully stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!" Shuang Ning looked a little hesitant, not knowing whether she should say it or not.

"Just say it." Zheng Xiyan had a calm expression on her face, without even moving her eyelids.

"Your Majesty...it's...it's related to Concubine Lu." Shuang Ning lowered her voice. She didn't see it with her own eyes, but the palace servants below saw it and were very sure.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Xiyan slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes became deep.

Shuang Ning came forward and whispered back: "The people below came to report that... they said Concubine Lu and Guard Lu..." Shuang Ning didn't dare to say it, and was still not sure.

Zheng Xiyan stared at her eyes fiercely and instantly guessed what this meant.

Lu Chuyi is only seventeen years old, and Lu Moyu is also young and handsome. If the two of them act on impulse...

"Are you sure?" Zheng Xiyan frowned, her face becoming increasingly gloomy.

"I dare not lie!" Shuang Ning said hurriedly.

Zheng Xiyan withdrew her gaze. As concubines of the previous emperor, if they were found to be having an affair with another man, the two of them would have only one way to go, and that was death.

But suddenly, Zheng Xiyan thought of something, "Lu Moyu is from the Fanyang Lu family?"

Biluo quickly replied: "Yes, but it's just a side branch."

"Side branch? That also comes from the Fanyang Lu family." Zheng Xiyan played with the jade ring on her wrist, a sharp look flashing in her eyes.
