Before Zitan finished speaking, the Qing Emperor left behind his maidservant and quickly headed towards his bedroom.

When she left, Changge and Hunchun were both in her residence, and now that there was an epidemic disease in Qinglan Palace on Zitan Road, Emperor Qing wanted to understand why Xu Changge came last night.

The palace has always been cautious about the epidemic, and punishing the palace servants will inevitably bring disaster to Chi Yu.

With Empress Dowager Xu in the palace, Changge will definitely be fine. As for Hunchun, he will also escape because of Changge.But these are all for Yu Changge. For Concubine Xi, Qinglan Palace must bear the brunt of hindering her.The palace people don't know that Qingchuan is dead, and Ji Sun's family intends to let her exchange identities with Qingchuan. In this way, it is a certainty that "Lady Lan died of the epidemic".Concubine Xi, as the mother of Princess Lan, also went to Qinglan Palace to walk around during her illness...

Secretly trying to figure out Ji Sun's thoughts, Qing Emperor stepped faster.

……

"Your Highness! Hey! Your Highness!" Seeing that Emperor Qing heard the news and headed towards Qinglan Palace, Zitan sighed for the foresight of the Jisun family, and led a group of servants to chase Qing Emperor.

……

When Emperor Qing arrived at Qinglan Palace, many familiar faces gathered outside Qinglan Palace.

Apart from the princes whom he had met at the banquet earlier, Emperor Qing also saw a person who should not have appeared outside the palace gate——Feng Changle.

"Brother Chuan!" Seeing that he finally saw the person he was waiting for, Feng Changle showed joy.

After chasing to Qingdi's side in three steps, Feng Changle asked for credit: "Brother Chuan! I knew that you are an auspicious person with a natural appearance, and you will not be infected with the epidemic!"

"What happened?" Emperor Qing didn't answer Feng Changle's words.

After quickly looking at the men and women standing in front of Qinglan Palace, Emperor Qing asked in a low voice, "Where is Miss Xu?"

"Miss Xu?" Feng Changle secretly gritted his teeth as he stared at the calm eyes on the Qing Emperor's veil.

Ever since she got the news that Concubine Xi committed suicide, she has been waiting here for Qingchuan.Unexpectedly, when this kid came, the first person to ask was that little fairy Xu Changge!

"Maybe he didn't come." Reluctant to make a confession in front of Emperor Qing, Feng Changle quietly hid Xu Changge's whereabouts, and took the initiative to lead Qing Emperor through the crowd to the plaque of Qinglan Palace.

"Your Highness hasn't been to Princess Lan's residence for some time." With a bit of guilt, Feng Changle didn't dare to look up at the plaque above his head, while Emperor Qing looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar plaque in front of him. The plaque took a breath.

The plaque of Qinglan Palace at this time is different from when Qingdi left - the large silk and satin flowers on the plaque make Qingdi unable to move.

The white satin flower is a sacrificial object in Qingdu.As for the ones in Qinglan Palace who can pay homage, except for "Prince Lan", she can't think of anyone else.

Ji Sun let her out of the palace to pay homage to Qing Lan in the name of Qing Chuan, Qing Emperor had no objection.But at this time, Qinglan Palace is really too quiet.

It was as quiet as a palace of death.

Could it be that the Jisun family did not leave anyone alive?

Looking up at the brocade-covered plaque on the palace gate, Qing Emperor felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Although he already knew that Concubine Xi was about to die, Emperor Qing still didn't want his mother and concubine to die in his palace.

"What is this for?"

Pretending to be unaware of the news of "Emperor Lan's" death, Emperor Qing questioned the servant girl standing in front of the palace gate, but the servant girls waiting at the side greeted Emperor Qing one after another.

"I have seen His Highness Chuan."

The maid's voice was not low.After the servants in the palace had finished seeing the ceremony, the princes who were waiting at the side also found the Qing Emperor in plain clothes.

Seeing Emperor Qing appearing at the gate of Qinglan Palace, the fifth prince walked towards Emperor Qing first.

"My brother's mourning..."

Slowly patted the Qing Emperor on the shoulder, the fifth prince did not make trouble.

However, he never thought that the person in front of him would come back so late.

After all, the person most involved in this epidemic is the elder sister of the person in front of her—not only contracted the epidemic, but also died in the deep palace.

The maidservant who was inquiring about the news said that his poor imperial sister was tortured to death and had a fever all night long.Afterwards, several imperial physicians visited her, but they were all punished by Ji Sun because they suspected that there was an epidemic in the palace.

Seeing that the fifth prince greeted the Qing Emperor, the sixth prince who was beside the fifth prince also greeted the Qing Emperor.

"Emperor Brother..."

The sixth prince followed the fifth prince, and his eyes were gloomy.There is an epidemic in Qinglan Palace, which is the news from Jisun's Yongning Palace.Why did the Ji Sun family spread such news, even his mother and concubine did not understand it.However, before leaving the house, the mother and concubine also sent news to him that since Ji Sun's family could use the fire of the epidemic to burn an unknown princess to death, it is not certain that it will burn him next time.

"This is?" Qingdi's eyes became dark, not knowing why his brother who had been speaking ill of him in the past suddenly changed his temper.

Thinking that Emperor Qing already knew the news of the death of his imperial sister and mother concubine, Qing He stepped forward again and said: "My condolences to the imperial brother."

"Sorrow?" Realizing that he seemed to be the only one, and didn't know what was going on in the palace, Emperor Qing decided to walk in the door.

Before Qingdi could step up, Zitan, who was following Qingdi, had already approached Qingdi, inviting him to the residence of Concubine Xi.

"What are you going to do at the mother's residence?" Emperor Qing looked at the red sandalwood in front of him, and all the princes retreated one after another.

Zitan, on the other hand, looked at Shang Qingdi and said something that everyone present was saying.

"His Highness mourns..."

"En." Guessing that Ji Sun's family was using the epidemic to hide the truth, Qing Emperor thought that the mourning in Zitan's mouth was the same as that of the previous group of people.

Responding to Zitan's invitation, and walking to Concubine Xi's residence, Qing Emperor heard ups and downs of sobbing along the way.

"What's the matter?" Qingdi asked Zitan in a low voice, intending to speed up his pace.

Seeing this, Zitan ordered the servant girl behind him to walk faster.

After the cries of the group of maidservants were left behind, Zitan said calmly: "Your Highness's matter involves a lot. Your Majesty's actions are all for His Highness, and I hope His Highness will not be overwhelmed."

"Yes." With no intention of refuting Zitan, Emperor Qing pulled up his clothes and started running towards Concubine Xi's residence.

She suddenly thought that Changge Xu was at Concubine Xi's residence, and Zitan invited her to take care of the mess.

Thinking about Chang Ge, who was at the residence of Concubine Xi at this time, or only nine years old, Qingdi walked faster.After passing through the hall door and running into the hall, Qing Di was stung by a piece of white silk in front of him.

Trying his best to suppress the doubts in his heart, Emperor Qing secretly warned himself that there should be no chaos at this time.

And on the way here, she had a bad guess, didn't she?

Thinking that Concubine Xi's mourning hall should be located in the main hall, Emperor Qing quickly walked through the hall to the mourning hall.

When he reached the gate of the mourning hall, Emperor Qing saw Xu Changge in plain clothes,

"Alan!" Seeing Emperor Qing outside the mourning hall, Xu Changge's frown slightly loosened.

Putting down the paper money in his hand, Xu Changge got up and chased after Qingdi.

Standing on tiptoe and looking at Zitan not far behind Emperor Qing, Xu Changge said in a low voice, "His Royal Highness Chuan..."

"Miss Xu." Already aware of the current situation, Qing Emperor and Xu Changge met the ceremony, and ordered Zitan to guard outside the hall.

Pulling Xu Changge into the mourning hall, Emperor Qing felt that the hall covered with white flowers was extremely cold.

Glancing at the servant girl who was kneeling in front of the hall and slowly burning paper money, Emperor Qing asked knowingly, "Who is this for..."

"This……"

Xu Changge looked at Qingdi in a dilemma.

When the mourning hall was first built, she was the one who accompanied Concubine Xi to pray for Qingchuan.

But that was two days ago.

……

Three days ago, I don't know who released the news that Princess Lan had contracted the disease.

It is nonsense that the princess is sick.However, a large number of border refugees have poured into Qingdu recently.But these refugees happened to bring the epidemic to Qingdu.As a result, everyone in the palace is in danger and has no time to care about this rumor.In the evening, the Jisun family sent medical officers to ask the maidservants in Qinglan Palace one by one.Strange to say, there were not many maidservants in Qinglan Palace, but after the medical officer's consultation, there were a few more female corpses at night.At dawn the next day, that is, two days ago, the news of Queen Lan's death came out.

Thinking about two days ago, there was a rumor in the palace that Princess Lan died of illness, Xu Changge's eyes softened when he looked at Emperor Qing.

She had seen the corpse of "Emperor Lan".The "Emperor Lan" who died of illness had exactly the same face as Emperor Qing.If she hadn't known that Qingchuan died in the deep palace, she would have believed that the person who died was Qinglan.

But Concubine Xi obviously knew the news earlier than her.

From hearing the news of Qinglan's death to inviting her to her residence, Concubine Xi only spent half a stick of incense to help Xu Changge avoid a questioning.

When Xu Changge first came, Concubine Xi just set up a mourning hall to cry, and when she couldn't cry anymore, Concubine Xi told her some trivial things.

Those trivial matters are all related to Emperor Qing.Some are Concubine Xi blaming herself for not being kind to Emperor Qing in the early years, and some are Concubine Xi thinking that Qing Emperor was more sensible than Qingchuan in the early years.

After listening to Concubine Xi's thoughts here and there, Xu Changge felt a little more distressed for the person in front of him.

Therefore, after waking up the next morning, Xu Changge became a little confused when he heard that Jisun's family and the person in front of him had given incense.

From the time when Qi Luo sneaked into Yongning Palace privately and saw Emperor Qing sleeping, to when he woke up and saw that he was wearing black clothes, Xu Changge knew that the man had been there.And that person not only came, but also left a letter with her saying "don't mess up".

How can it be messed up?

Thinking about Concubine Xi committing suicide in her bedroom this morning, Xu Changge gently pursed his lips.

She couldn't understand why Concubine Xi committed suicide, she was fine last night.

……

Seeing that Xu Changge couldn't speak, Emperor Qing understood.

Bending down to take the paper money from the maid, Qing Emperor knelt on the futon and took the place of the maid: "But for the concubine mother?"

"Alan..." Fearing that the person in front of him would be sad if he knew the truth, Xu Changge hesitated to speak.

"Yes." Hunchun saw that Xu Changge was hesitating because of the news of Concubine Xi's death, so he walked from the dark to the light, and said bluntly, "As senior sister has seen, there is no Concubine Xi in this world."

He was not surprised by the appearance of Hunchun.

After confirming the news of Concubine Xi's death from Hunchun, Emperor Qing heaved a sigh of relief, but couldn't help thinking about Concubine Xi's appearance when she passed away.

"How did you die?" He let go of the paper money in his hand and changed it to offering incense to Concubine Xi, Qingdi wanted to know what Ji Sunshi did.

"Suicide." Hunchun said concisely.

When Concubine Xi passed away, neither she nor Xu Changge were present.When they got the news from Qiluo and rushed to Concubine Xi's residence, Concubine Xi was already hanging on the beam.

"En." Slowly inserting three sticks of incense into the furnace, Qingdi remained silent for a while.

Death is an irresistible event.But according to common sense, Concubine Xi shouldn't have passed away so hastily.

People who have died once should cherish their lives more than ordinary people.
