Light Red Northern Song

It's five o'clock in the night, Shangxuan Palace.

Chu Shanyi sat at the top, Qi Yongyao, who was urgently called into the palace, sat on the east side below, Jing Rou, who had already changed into clean clothes, sat beside him, and Qi Zhiwei and Qi Mingyi sat on the west side of the bottom.

Standing in the middle of the hall are Xie Yuan and the other guards on duty tonight.

"So, the man in black hasn't been found?"

"Reporting to the empress, the gate of the palace has been sealed, but so far no trace of him has been found." Xie Yuan replied.

"Where is the woman in green that Princess Jingrou mentioned?"

"Report to Empress Empress," Xie Yuan replied in a low voice, "I haven't seen you either."

"You bastard! There have been gangsters in Daqi Palace, what are you waiting for? What kind of guard are you worth?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" All the guards knelt down and shouted.

"Okay, you should step up your inspection." Qi Yongyao said.

The guards withdrew one after another, and Chu Shanyi said: "I just went to transition to Wutang today, and Concubine Xi was killed in the evening. Whether it is herself or others in the palace, most of them will think that this matter must be my palace. made."

"In my opinion, it doesn't matter whether you can find the man in black or not, it's meaningless now." Qi Yongyao said.

"As Uncle Wang said, even if we can find it, it is already a dead person. What can a dead person ask? The people behind this matter are really vicious. I have no way to explain it, and I can't argue with it." Qi Zhiwei said.

"It's hard to argue. It just so happened that I appeared there by accident tonight. It just so happened that Concubine Xi told the empress to let her child go in front of so many people. It just so happened that the empress was Who is it? It's my aunt..." Jing Rou said this in a low voice, shook her head and continued: "Now that she died in my arms for no reason, where else can I reason? Who can believe it? Now, what will the people of the world think now? Eldest prince, third, what trouble will the third sister cause if she finds out?"

"Hmph! If the queen mother wants to harm her, why wait until today?" Qi Mingyi said.

"Why do you think it is today?" Chu Shanyi asked back with a sneer, and then said: "It's really a coincidence! A handwritten letter was intercepted in the palace yesterday, and it is because of this handwritten letter that I went to look for Concubine Xi today. She I thought it was Ben Gong who wanted to murder her, and it was precisely because of this handwritten letter. There are many people in the world, once this matter is spread by someone with a heart, it will be very difficult for Ben Gong to clear up this innocent grievance."

"Handwriting?" Qi Zhiwei asked, "What kind of handwriting is it?"

"It came from outside the palace, judging from its content, it should not be the first letter with Concubine Xi. The letter is all about how to deal with the palace and how to protect the eldest prince's words."

"Then, who wrote it?" Qi Zhiwei asked again.

"It's because I didn't know who wrote it that I went to look for her, but she didn't give any answer." Chu Shanyi suddenly turned to Jing Ju and said, "The ceremony can't be held as scheduled, Yu'er should leave as soon as possible." Cangshan."

Jingrou was taken aback when she heard the words, and asked after a while: "What does the emperor's aunt mean? Why should I leave now?"

"The date of your ceremony is just a few days later. Concubine Xi died tonight. According to the etiquette system, the coffin in the palace cannot exceed seven days, so the ominous ceremony will definitely conflict with your ceremony. This place is dangerous everywhere. Your birthday You can't stay here in the future. If you go to Li Cangshan, the emperor's aunt should also feel at ease."

"The imperial aunt is worried that I will be implicated? Even if the ceremony is cancelled, there are still some days before my birthday. I can't just walk away like this and leave you here."

"The queen mother is thoughtful and reasonable. The real immortal has already said that you need to avoid disasters after your birthday, and now that something like this has happened, you really can't stay in Beijing anymore." Qi Mingyi said hastily.

"Imperial sister, I heard that you have been plotted against several times before, and what happened tonight is too sudden. You should go to Li Cangshan, so that your mother can rest assured." Qi Zhiwei also persuaded.

Jing Rou glanced to the left, Qi Yongyao was watching her.She glanced at the chief again, and said, "The imperial aunt is too careful."

"You are like my child, can you be careless? You have to know that you are different from them, but no witches and evildoers are interested in them." Chu Shanyi said, glanced at the two people on the west side glanced.

"Here," Jingrou wanted to continue arguing, but Qi Yongyao said at this moment: "It's too late, the two princesses should go to rest."

The two princesses on the east and west sides looked at each other and silently left the palace.

"Little Huangmei, you have been frightened tonight, why don't you go and accompany you?"

"Accompany?" Jingrou raised her head and thought for a while, what happened tonight was not only sudden but also very serious, she needed time to be quiet, so she replied: "Thank you Second Sister Huang, no need."

"Oh," Qi Mingyi looked at the other party carefully, took her hand and said, "Don't think about it."

"Well, the imperial sister is going back."

Qi Mingyi watched her go forward, feeling that a lot had happened recently.Whether it's in the court or in the palace, even I seem to be very busy.

"Your Highness! I'm back, why is the palace gate closed?" Lin Yuan came in from outside Jinyun Palace, and saw that the person in front of him was His Highness the Princess!Without thinking too much at the moment, I ran out and asked.

Jingrou felt extremely tired, and had no desire to answer at all, so she continued to walk inward.

"Master Dao, the palace gate is indeed closed, how did you get in?" Jian Chen asked in surprise.

"Can those few walls still trap me? You two came back so late, what happened?" Lin Yuan asked, pointing at a few people with his arms open.

"Taoist," Jian Chen gave her a wink, then turned around and said, "It's too late now, let His Highness rest first, and send Qiu Yi to serve in the inner hall."

Jingrou finally gave a little response, and she nodded slightly as a consent.

The master of Jinyun Palace never likes to have many people. Among the palace maids, Xia Le was the only one who could serve him closely for a long time. Jian Chen went out to call Li Yun who was transferred here with Xia Le. Palace old man.

"Your Highness, what happened?" Lin Yuan was a little flustered when she saw the other party enter the outer hall and sit down silently, because she had never seen such Jingrou before.

"Your Highness?"

"Tell you, you don't understand either." Jing Rou raised her head and said.

"Whether I understand or not, that's naturally my business."

"Linyuan," Jingrou stood up, walked to the door of the outer hall and said, "Go out, let me stay by myself for a while?"

"His Royal Highness, the hot water is here." The three palace servants outside the door stood in front of the door with washing utensils and other things in their hands.

"En." Jing Rou turned and walked towards the inner hall, Lin Yuan looked at her, then at the door, and ran out in a few steps.

After all the utensils were put down, two maidservants resigned one after another, leaving only a tall, thin and clean maidservant to wait for the grooming.Jingrou thought that she would recall the scene in the flower path tonight again, but she didn't.

Her heart was sometimes empty, sometimes very blocked, always in a state of ups and downs and not at ease.

Qiu Yi peeked at his master from the bronze mirror, only to see that the other party was frowning, unhappy, with a disturbed look on his face.She has been in Jinyun Palace for some time, it's not that she hasn't had contact with this master in front of her before, it's just that she hasn't been this close.

She heard about what happened tonight.Although I haven't seen it in person, it's scary enough to think about it.Now that the master has become like this, I don't know if the imperial physician Xuan should come to serve and check.

As soon as she thought of this, she blurted out and asked, "Your Highness, do you need to teach the imperial physician?"

"Huh?" Jingrou didn't seem to wake up, and asked in confusion: "What does the imperial physician do?"

"It might be good to prescribe some calming decoction."

Because of this sentence, Jing Rou raised her head and looked at the other party carefully.After a while, she replied with a faint smile: "No need, just go and rest for a while."

Qiu Yi didn't dare to say any more, and only focused on the work in hand.

On the bed, Jing Rou tossed and turned, as if she had never been so worried like this time.What are you worried about?In the past, even if I was misunderstood, I didn't think it was a big deal, even if I was misunderstood and killed someone...

The clean ones clean themselves, there is nothing to worry about, isn't it?

No!

The person who died in his arms tonight, the person who sprayed his blood all over his body, was Concubine Xi...she was different from others.If you said you didn't want to see Qi Mingxuan before, but now you really don't dare to say goodbye to her.There was already an inexplicable entanglement, and after tonight, the two of them didn't know what kind of chaos they would fall into.

On the corridor outside the sleeping hall, after listening to Jian Chen's narration, Lin Yuan said disapprovingly, "I don't think it's that simple."

"What does the Taoist priest mean by this?"

"She has never lost her soul like this, even when she was in Beiying." Lin Yuan stopped, glanced towards the bedroom, then glanced at Jian Chen standing in front of her, and waved her hand in the tone of that person and said : "Tell you, you don't understand either."

"Daozhang, how is Mu Ji's injury? If it's stable, you should go back to the palace." Jian Chen didn't ask any further questions, but instead asked.

"The poison in him is difficult to get rid of. Previously, the conditions did not allow it, so he had to use elixirs to protect him temporarily. After returning to Beijing this time, he needs to be soaked in medicinal soup every day, and judging from the current situation, it will take a long time for him to recover." Very early."

"Then what should we do? This happened when you were not here. Next time... no, no, there won't be a next time. But if the Taoist priest is here, it will be easier for me to wait."

"Hey? I said, Master Jane, what are you thinking? You are a guard and I am a guard? What makes it easier for you?"

"Don't get me wrong, Daoist. I'm worried that I'm not capable enough to protect His Highness. Tonight, the empress said that His Highness should go to Li Cang Mountain in advance. Daoist, if you go there on the road, it will be much safer for you to follow." Jane Chen smiled and explained that he reacted much faster than Mu Ji, and his words were more pleasing to the ear.These days, he spends a lot of time with each other, so how could he not know the master's ability?

"Hmph! That sounded good. Alright, when I leave the palace in the next two days, I will make arrangements for the medicinal soup and dosage that I have given. Let's see the situation in the next few days, and I will be ready to go back with His Highness when the time comes." Master."

"Yes, yes, this is the best way. By the way, Taoist priest, you must not leave Jinyun Palace tonight. The two suspicious assassins have not been found yet."

"Well, you have to cheer up when you wait."

"Yes, Daoist, I will lead someone to inspect it again."
