Xiao Zhi and Lord Qin

After Master Qin and Xiao Zhi left, Concubine Hui stayed in the emperor's bedroom by herself for one night.

On the second day, she took people to Concubine Zhen's place.

When the maid pushed the door, Concubine Zhen was combing her hair in front of the bronze mirror. She knew that the palace had changed hands, but she never thought that Concubine Hui was still in the palace. She shivered for a while, isn't God really unwilling to give her a way out?

"Concubine Zhen, are you going to drink it honestly? Or do you have to pretend to be crazy and be forcibly fed?" Concubine Hui thought of countless ways to torture people in her mind this night, but in the end she felt too tired. Things just let them all end quickly.

She used the method that concubine Zhen used to deal with the emperor, and let concubine Zhen end it on her own.

Concubine Zhen sat blankly for a long while, and finally she didn't know how to speak: "Bring it here, I'll drink it myself."

After speaking, she began to dress herself in front of the bronze mirror.

Concubine Hui has been sitting, watching her quietly, without urging her.

Until Concubine Zhen dug out a set of exquisitely crafted dance clothes from the bottom of the box and changed them on. It was the clothes that her mother sewed for her before she entered the palace.

After she changed her clothes, she picked up the poisoned wine with both hands and put it down again. She really didn't want to die yet.

Concubine Zhen looked at Concubine Hui's crystal clear teardrops with her beautiful big eyes, and she even asked a stupid question: "Do I really have to die?"

Concubine Hui looked at her coldly and said nothing.

Concubine Zhen finally felt despair at this time, tremblingly raised her wine glass again, watching it with tears falling more and more, with no additional fear and fear in her heart.

"I think it's better to find someone to help you?" Concubine Hui sneered unmoved when she saw her appearance.

Concubine Zhen finally gave up and drank the wine in one gulp.

It didn't take long for her to convulse, and then the blood she spit out stained her snow-white clothes red, until she remained motionless at last.

Concubine Hui stared at her corpse silently for a long time before standing up: "Scrape her face and bury her with that poor child."

After Concubine Hui searched the house for a long time, she found Xiao Yu who was shivering behind the door: "There's still her, let her guard at Concubine Zhen's bones."

The eunuch who listened to the order seemed not very clever: "Your Majesty, how long is that?"

Concubine Hui glanced at him: "Should guard until death."

……

Master Qin left the capital with the little one, originally planning to go back to his hometown in Qizhou first.

But Xiao Zhi said that he wanted to go back to his hometown in Lingzhou to take a look.

The third prince has announced Xiaozhi's abdication edict to the world, and Lord Qin also sent someone to send a letter to General Ji.

The third prince originally planned to make the little one a prince and stay in the capital, but Mr. Qin knew that it was surveillance and house arrest in disguise, so he directly refused for the little one. The third prince immediately said that the little one had better not show up again The capital city, the farther away the better.

However, the new emperor, the Third Prince, is very much praised and loved by the people.

Along the way, Master Qin and Xiao Zhi both heard how the common people praised the new emperor's tax cuts and punished corrupt officials.The ones who everyone said the most are the Ministers of the Ministry of Officials and Ministers of the Ministry of Industry.

It is said that when the imperial envoy escorted the Minister of the Household Department to seize the stolen money, the Minister of the Household Department took them to a huge other courtyard.As a result, when entering a bedroom, Hubu Shangshu suddenly found an opportunity to escape into a secret passage and seal the intersection.The imperial envoy found five strong men and didn't push them away, so he had to order to dig. As a result, the laborers went down with a hoe and found that all the gold bricks were neatly stacked in the wall.

And there were three stone doors sealed inside the secret passage, and it took ten days for everyone to dig through it.

At first, everyone thought that Shangshu Hubu must have run far away and hid.Unexpectedly, at the end of the secret passage, they saw the corpse of Shangshu Hubu lying there, and the nail shells of the ten fingers of the corpse were all peeled off on the dirt wall at the end.

It should be because the flood in the south also affected the nearby river, and somehow the rising water level blocked the opening of the river, and Shangshu Hubu was trapped in it and starved to death.

But Shangshu Hubu must have struggled. It is said that the mouth of the corpse is full of dirt.

The story version of Shangshu Gongbu is simpler and clearer.

On the day Zhou Huaizhang led the rebels into the capital, he was stabbed to death by the rebels as soon as he ran out of the palace.

In fact, I don't know if Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry recognizes him or not. The knives that stabbed him were all sent by him himself...
