"Your Majesty, it is said that people will turn into stars in the sky after death, and they will also take care of the human world. Maybe the fifth elder brother is still accompanying you in the sky."

Xiangling's return to the palace this time was entrusted by Concubine Yun, hoping to use her experience to take care of the newly born sixth elder brother.After Xiangling settles down, the first thing to do is to comfort Rufei who lost her orphan.

The fifth elder brother passed away, and the Yongshou Palace, which was full of guests in the past, is also deserted. The concubines who lost the prince are like trees that have lost their roots.That's why Xiang Ling felt relieved to walk around the Yongshou Palace during the day, now that Concubine Yun is in her prime, she naturally doesn't care about such small things.

Ever since she broke up with Wanxiu, Ruyue's mood has become more difficult to calm down, and she is locked in the Yongshou Palace every day without leaving home.Now that the old friend is back, Ruyue feels the same warmth for Xiangling's sending charcoal in the snow, and can't help but hold Xiangling's hands tightly. "Fifth elder brother has been taken care of by you for many years, although he can't grow up safely..."

"If the stars are the embodiment of honor in the world, the empress should feel relieved. Now the fifth elder brother can control his own destiny. You see, the fifth elder brother is shining in the sky." There are no stars in the day, Xiang Ling is still looking at it seriously Outside the window, it seemed as if I could see the laughter of the fifth elder brother at that time. "Fifth elder brother is very well-behaved and likes to play games with others. Even when I am busy, he is still by my side, and keeps asking me how should I take the last few moves in yesterday's chess game? He said, can I work harder? Win against Nanny Xiangling?"

When Ruyue heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears again. "I didn't know that Mian Yu loved playing chess so much. I never played a game of chess with Mian Yu properly..."

"If the empress is willing, Xiang Ling is willing to accompany the empress in the game on behalf of the fifth elder brother."

Black and white are clearly distinguished on the chessboard, and Xiang Ling thinks long and hard every time he makes a piece, all of which are the style of the fifth elder brother in the past. Ruyue listened to Xiang Ling's story about getting along with Mian Yu, and felt happy and sad at the same time. Her Mian Yu is so cute and smart, it's sad that she will never see such a Mian Yu again.

Xiangling's voice is like a lingering soft silk, climbing up to the heartstrings of a concubine. "...Fifth Prince liked to do these things in the past, and he was not afraid of others laughing at him."

"Yeah, this is the same as me, he is so stupid." Bai Zi settled down, Ruyue had already won the chess game, she couldn't help chuckling. "My Mianyu chess skills are pretty good."

"The chess game is over, Xiang Ling should also say goodbye." As night fell, Xiang Ling couldn't stay for a long time, so she bid farewell to Concubine Ru.

Seeing that Xiang Ling was about to leave, Ruyue lost her composure and grabbed the other party's sleeve, and after a while said calmly, "Xiang Ling, can you come back tomorrow?"

"Fifth elder brother is also taken care of by me. My mother and I are both mothers. Why don't you understand your mother's mood?" It turned out that Xiang Ling was holding back tears just now. Looking closely at this moment, his eyes were already moist. "Parents all over the world, who doesn't want their children to live a life without worries, diseases and worries? Who doesn't miss their loved ones who are no longer with them, even if they are close at hand, they are still worried?"

Ruyue only knows that Xiangling is enthusiastic, so she can't help but feel guilty for what she did the day before yesterday.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Xiangling will still come to accompany you tomorrow."

After a few days, Xiangling has become a regular visitor of Yongshou Palace, everyone knows the pain of losing a child like a concubine, but Xiangling is the only one who has a common topic and can be comforted.

Seeing Xiangling coming every day, Ruyue felt uneasy, and finally took the initiative to mention the matter. "You left the palace a few days ago, but you came back to live in the mansion?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Xiang Ling's expression suddenly darkened. "Since I left the palace that day, my heart has been ashamed, and I don't know what is the meaning of going back to Buyamuqi Mansion. So I got out of the sedan chair and wandered in the capital alone, and finally walked to a bridge. I stood on the top of the bridge. Looking down at the bottom of the deep current, I wanted to jump down... Fortunately, I met Doctor Yang at this time, and he advised me to save my life, and don't forget that Muduer still called me Erniang."

"So...Xiang Ling, you don't know what's going on with Mu Du'er recently?"

Xiang Ling looked at Ru Fei and asked suspiciously, "What happened to Mu Duer?"

"After you came out of the palace, Bacha came to ask me for an order. He said that Mu Duer and Xue Dongsheng from the respect room were in love and wanted to be married couples. He also said that you readily agreed to this matter." Ruyue said as she looked at it. Looking at Xiang Ling's expression, I saw that Xiang Ling went from being surprised to annoyed.

"Xiang Ling begged my mother to take back her will." As a mother, she is strong, and in order to protect the only remaining relative, Xiang Ling also became tough. "Life in the palace is already hard, not to mention marrying an eunuch and being trapped in the Forbidden City for the rest of your life. Bacha just wants to use Muduer to get news from the palace, so why would he consider Muduer's future happiness!"

"It was my oversight." Ruyue took advantage of the situation and said angrily, "Fortunately, my letter has not been sent yet. I will confront Bacha again in the palace. You can rest assured, Xiangling."

"Thank you for your grace." Xiang Ling lowered her head seemingly gratefully, but in the dark where Ruyue couldn't see, she showed a sneer with disdain.

"Your Majesty, it has been rumored in the harem recently that the Empress Rufei has invited an order to go to Rehe to marry her auntie, is your empress worried?" Ever since Concubine Chun returned to the palace angrily, Youxiang saw her face gloomy and gloomy every day. The son even complained to Concubine Shugui that he was sick, and hid in the bedroom.

"Is she in good spirits now?" Last time she finally lowered her figure and asked Ruyue to ask for peace, but she actually dismissed herself and thought she was spreading rumors behind the scenes, as Ruyue always does!It's not worth a little bit of kindness at all! "Last time, I was too impulsive to fall into the trap. After careful consideration, I decided that it was impossible for her to ask for orders from Rehe. She wanted to marry Muduer. Who is Muduer──the queen's right-hand man and her husband?" The celebrity in front of me, don’t say that the object of this marriage is not on the stage at all, but if the concubine Rufei intervenes in the marriage of Chuxiu palace maids, will the empress think that she is out of good intentions? It is even more impossible to just watch Mu Duer marry an eunuch, and the intention of walking around the front of Yongshou Palace these days could not be more obvious."

"Then why are there still such rumors in the harem?"

"It's all because of Mu Du'er's poor popularity, and everyone is eager to see her laugh." Slightly snorted, Wan Xiu said a sarcastic remark.

Seeing the concubine concubine mentioning the two people she least wanted to see in one breath, Youxiang was filled with resentment when she mentioned concubine Ru, and her aunt seemed to have nothing to do with her, but she secretly cared about it.Youxiang took the courage to ask again: "It would be fine if everything my mother said is just a rumor, but even if it is so, my aunt must be worried..."

"I've always wanted to ask me to go to see Muduer, Youxiang, what do you mean!" Looking away like a blade, Wanxiu slapped the table and said angrily: "Now this palace is trapped in the cage of Shoukang Palace. There is nothing to do except embroidery or embroidery every day." Powerless—who do you think I have the ability to help!"

Yuxiang flinched in panic. "Your Majesty, calm down."

"If I become the Concubine Gui today, how can Concubine Shugui win me? Even Concubine Yonggui who has a son, I can still defeat her after she dies──" Wanxiu suddenly thought What, the body leaned back slightly, and unexpectedly became a relaxed posture. "Youxiang, I have something to ask you. Last time, the rumors about Concubine Yonggui's relationship with the general, you said later, came from a servant named Chi Jiaguirong in Xinzheku?"

"Yes."

"The last time you called Xin Zheku to clean up Concubine Yonggui's room?"

After thinking about it, Yuxiang said, "There is indeed such a thing."

Wanxiu smiled after hearing this for a long time, but the current situation is really weird, which makes Youxiang's head go numb for a while.

"I have something to tell you now." Wanxiu got up and walked out of the door, pointing to the roof tiles on the palace, "You find a way to break all those roof tiles."

"Your Majesty?" Youxiang looked at Concubine Chun in puzzlement.

"Don't ask, you won't understand even if you tell me." Wan Xiu waved her hand and returned to the room in a good mood. "Hurry up and break the roof tiles. I don't care if you take a pole or climb a ladder. You can't break it anyway. Just stay in Shoukang Palace and accompany me for the rest of your life."
