Because the New Year is approaching, it is not advisable to discuss Murong Shilan until after the New Year. It is probably unlucky. www. Su Xi was recruited as soon as he was personally tried. It was Murong Shilan's instructor, so the queen and Concubine Jing made a quick decision to interrogate Murong Shilan overnight and deposed her into the cold palace.

I temporarily live in the cucumber hall in Meizhuang. Although it is a little narrow, the two of them have a harmonious relationship. It seems that when they were still young, she often whispered to me on the bed with her head and head. The moonlight poured down from the window like water, like pear blossoms blooming on the ground like snow. Meizhuang's hair is extremely long, black and thick, and under the white moonlight, it looks like a good ink-colored satin, flowing out of the gauze tent.

Mei Zhuang counted the days by counting his fingers, "Today is twenty-five, at most it's twenty-nine, and he will definitely die." She chuckled with a "crack" and said, "It's not in vain that I hurt myself."

I carefully looked at her wounds and complained: "You are really, why bother to burn yourself? Fortunately, it's cold now, and if it's summer, it will definitely become suppurative."

Mei Zhuang disagreed and said, "At most, it's just a scar, and it's not a loss for her life." She said, "If the emperor didn't let his eyes see how terrible my burn wound was, he would never know how terrible it was to burn fire. Only when he saw my wound would the emperor think about how terrible it would be if it was burned on you, and he hated Murong Shilan to the core."

Maybe hatred will really make a person meticulous, and I admire such courage and thoughts of Meizhuang.

I think it was because of the injury, her face was a little pale, and the bright candlelight was like a floating red light. Her skin color was even more transparent when shining. She looked at a faint fragrance of daffodil under the south window and murmured: "When Murong Shilan dies tomorrow, I don't know who I will fight with."

I smiled slightly, and the words were filled with a desolate feeling: "It's not easy to fight in this palace, everyone is an enemy. It's simple to fight, it's just obscurity. Newcomers will come in continuously. Are you still afraid that your life will be lonely in the future?" I said: "You'd better worry about your injuries. After the scar boils fall off, I'll get scar relief glue for you. It's best to remove scars."

Two days later, I went to pay my respects to the queen. Everyone was there. Ling Rong seemed to have forgotten what happened in the snow that day. She asked Meizhuang and me and Meizhuang for a while and said, "If it is inconvenient for Sister Mei, it would be nice to come to me."

I smiled and said, "There is nothing inconvenient. I just stay for a while. After a while, the Tangli Palace will be repaired and you can move there."

She said with concern to Meizhuang: "Sister Chen is not allowed to eat fish, shrimp, seafood, or drink alcohol, which is not good for the wound."

As he was speaking, the queen spoke: "Murong did not want to regret it, and was vicious. He actually ordered his slave Su Xi to set fire to Tangli Palace. This was so unforgivable. This palace decided to severely punish him to serve as a warning and even give him the Murong family to death, otherwise there would be no rules and regulations in the harem."

Everyone here has been resentful of Murong Shilan for a long time, especially on the day when I lost my son, she ordered the concubines in the harem to sit in the scorching sun and expose them to accompany her, which made the public angry. At that time, he dared not speak out, but now the queen's move is very satisfying, and everyone said that the queen has "a good deed in governance."

The queen pondered: "After all, Murong has served the emperor for a long time, so I will leave her a whole body." She called Jianqiu: "Go and tell Eunuch Li to prepare wine, dagger and white silk, and let her choose one by herself, which can be regarded as Gu Nian serving the emperor together."

Concubine Xin smiled happily and happily: "The queen is kind. If she changes her concubine, she will definitely give her a break to relieve her."

I smiled and said, "Sister Xin is better to be the censor of the case. If you encounter a case, you will be done with just one knife and two cuts. It is the most labor-saving thing."

Concubine Xin smiled and patted me gently, saying, "My sister Wan's mouth is really the most tricky one."

Everyone laughed for a moment, but Concubine Xiang looked depressed. It was not until the queen asked twice before she replied: "I have always been tired recently, and I have taken a few medicines but it has not worked. It is really rude to the Queen."

The queen said, "You have to take care of the princess. You are busy in the New Year and you will inevitably be more tired." So she told her to take good care of her and everyone left.

When I got off the nap, I asked Jinxi, "Eunuch Li said when will Murong be killed?"

She helped me up and rinse my mouth and said, "The death penalty for the cold palace is usually performed at dusk."

I thought about it and smiled and said, "Dress up well for me, I want to give us the noble concubine Hua."

So I carefully combed an elegant Xianyou bun, and the four butterflies with red, blue and green gems inlaid with golden steps, shining brightly, as if the stars shining among the dark clouds. The smoke and purple clouds made of flowers and satin weave colorful flowers and butterflies’ brocade clothes, and the water diamonds and black hair piping, woven into the green peacock feathers with flat gold needles. After finishing the dressing, Jinxi smiled: "Empress is rarely so gorgeous."

New and old hatreds, my smile is charming and cold: "Is it the last time? Of course I have to give it a good gift."

The road to Jinleng Palace was already familiar. Murong Shilan curled up alone in a corner of the cold palace, dressed neatly and had a very sloppy face.

Seeing that I only brought Xiao Lianzi in, she said, "You are very brave. Even if you dare to come in alone in the cold palace, you will be there."

I smiled calmly: "I came to this place more than you. At that time, Yu Shi, I watched her die here."

The corners of her mouth gently raised, "Do you want to watch me die?" She had her eyes that were squinting and looked at people more charming and sharp: "You don't look like you are here to see you off, but you look like a village woman who has never seen the world is rushing to hold a wedding."

I didn't think it was offended and said with a smile: "How can it not be considered a great joy to be able to see you go to the Western Paradise with your own eyes? What's more, the living village women are better than the dead."

She sneered, "What's so proud of you? It's just a design to frame me!" She became furious, "I've never instructed Su Xi to set fire!" She gasped: "Although he is a person in my palace, he is not my confidant, how could I instruct him like this!" In a rage, she was about to pounce on me and pinch my neck. I didn't avoid it. As soon as she was about to approach me, Xiao Lianzi twisted her hands and pressed her against the wall.

The wall powder that had been moldy for a long time fell down and half of Murong Shilan's face turned white, and she was choked by the wall powder and coughed continuously. She still struggled and shouted: "You are wronged by me-"

I waved the silk thread and smiled gently, "You are wrong - it was the emperor who wronged you, not me. I am just framed you." Jing and I smiled, "But you are not wronged. You are the one who drowned, right? You also made the cassava flour in the food of Emperor Wen Yi. Instruct Yu Gengyi to poison my medicine, push Meizhuang into the water, and pull Jiang Muyang. Jiang Muyi was wronged Meizhuang for fake pregnancy and compete for favor. Every item is all you? You are really nothing if you use a fire burning Tangli Palace to be wronged."

She raised her head and snorted coldly: "I knew that Cao's slut must be instructed by you, because she had that courage!"

I laughed and shook my head, and the hanging Yingluo Ling sounded, and said for a moment: "You really don't know. You have used Emperor Wen Yi to compete for favor several times, and even joked about her life. Concubine Xiang is her biological mother, so how can you not hate her? Do you think she hated you only today? It's not a day when the ice is three feet long. You should have known that she has a strange intention."

Her expression changed again and again, and she turned to contemptuously: "With my popularity back then, the old lady of the Queen, the Queen, wants me to give me some point. Cao is just a dog under my command. How could I take her seriously!"

I brushed the soft wind hair on my sleeves. In the cold and humid cold palace, every word I said would gush out with warm white air. I said gently: "If it were a dog, it would be fine. Dogs are the most loyal. People are different from dogs. People are much more cunning than dogs."

She raised her eyebrows and breathed heavily: "Bitch! You are as cunning as your brother and sister-in-law. If your brother hadn't set up a trick to make the prince relax his guard against him, how could he easily get that list? Murong and the King of Runan would not have been defeated! You join forces inside and outside the palace to kill me!"

"If it weren't for the domineering King Runan, and the Murong clan was accomplices of the tiger, why would this happen? Don't forget that your husband is the emperor, how can others sleep soundly by the emperor's pillow? It's so naive to think that the emperor can tolerate them!" My voice was clear and cold, like snow covering her face, which made her still beautiful face lose its color.

She fell on a pile of hay in despair and said with great strength: "They are meritorious ministers, fighting for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and have made great achievements..."

I coldly interrupted her: "No matter how great the military achievements are, they are still the king's subject, how can they be superior to the king? Isn't it a rebellion?"

She was speechless for a long time, and I was silent. At this moment, Chief Li brought people in and greeted me. He arranged the black wood containing daggers, poisoned wine and white silk in front of Murong Shilan, and said respectfully to her: "According to the Queen's order, please choose your own choice."

Murong Shilan came to her senses, glanced at him, and said coldly: "The Queen's decree? Where is the Emperor's decree? Take it!"

Li Chang still lowered his eyes and said, "The emperor means that the full power is left to the queen, please."

She held her breath for a moment and said heavily: "Without the emperor's imperial edict, I, Murong Shilan, would never die." She smiled sadly, as if she had infinite hatred, "He has already ordered my father and brother to kill me, are you afraid of giving me another imperial edict?"

Li Chang just said respectfully: "The Emperor has said that he doesn't want to hear anything about the little master again."

She smiled, as if asking herself: "Does the emperor hate me so much?" She said that, and tidied up her clothes and hair. The white brocade sachet on her skirt was particularly eye-catching. The fragrance was the familiar and rich smell of "Huanyixiang". I frowned in disgust and took two steps subconsciously. She sat down cross-legged and said: "Go and invite the emperor's will."

Li Chang was in a dilemma, and I saw the opportunity and said to him: "Eunuch Li, please wait. Let me say goodbye to my little master Murong."

Li Chang hurriedly said, "Empress is self-righteous, and the servant is waiting outside."

When I saw Li Chang go out, I smiled and said to Murong Shilan: "I'm sorry, I'm used to calling you "Empress", and suddenly became "little master". I'm really not used to changing my words."

She looked at me sideways and said indifferently: "Whatever, I'm going to die anyway."

I handed the hand stove in my arms to Xiao Lianzi's hand and said, "My hand stove is cold, please go out and add a few more pieces of charcoal."

Little Lianzi refused to leave for a long time and said with a look of alertness: "She..."

I said, "You go. If there is any movement, Eunuch Li and the others are outside."

Little Lianzi went out as he said, and I stood in front of her and said, "Do you know why the emperor hates you?"

She shook her head, gently stroked the sachet with gestures, and said softly: "The Emperor used to be very fond of me. No matter how big the mistake I made, no matter how angry he was, he would still be reluctant to ignore me for too long."

I said lightly, "Then why the emperor loves you, have you ever thought about it?" I sneered, "It's just because you are beautiful? There is never a shortage of beautiful women in this palace."

She sneered: "You mean the emperor is more pampering because I am a woman from the Murong family? Concubine Duan is also the daughter of the general." Her body was a little uneasy and moved again and again.

I looked at her calmly, "You actually know in your heart, why bother to deceive yourself?"

Murong Shilan held his right hand tightly with his left hand and shouted loudly: "You are talking nonsense! How come the emperor is not sincere to me?"

My smile became stronger and stronger, and I slowly said, "Maybe there is. Even if there is, you and your family have been domineering for many years, I am afraid that this idea will be consumed, and there will be no more left."

She chuckled softly, her smile was simple and sincere, like a light Xiaoyun, her expression gradually calmed down, and she said slowly: "Is that? I was only seventeen that year. I just entered the palace and only knew that I had a noble status. As soon as I entered the palace, I was named Huapin. It was a summer morning, and I rode a horse in the forest of Taiping Palace. I was the only one in the palace who dared to ride a horse. Although Duan Fei was born into a general, she did not dare to cross it. As a result, the emperor appeared and he stopped my horse. I was very scared at the time, afraid that he would scold me, but he refused to accept it and wanted to race a horse with him. As a result, he agreed with a smile. I beat him in the horse racing, and he was not angry.

Riding with me. That night, the emperor favored me." Her thoughts were immersed in the sweet memories of the past. In the dim light of the cold palace, it was like a delicate rose blooming on the rotten wood. "I was only seventeen, and I became the most favored woman in the entire harem. He said that there were so many women in the palace, and I was afraid of him, so I didn't, so he only liked me." She sighed faintly: "But there are so many women in the palace, so many of them made me angry. He stayed at this concubine tonight and the noble concubine tonight. I often waited for it, and it was dawn and he had not come to me yet."

She suddenly looked at me, "Have you tried watching it feel dark until dawn?"

I was speechless, and my heart was filled with mixed feelings. Have you ever had it? It seemed that there was no. I knew he was the king in the morning, and his night did not belong to me alone. I would have insomnia, but I would never wait for him to reach the rising sun.

She chuckled softly. The weather was cold, and when she spoke, warm white air overflowed from the corner of her mouth, which made her face look unreal and bright and bitter. "You don't like the emperor so much. Soon, I got pregnant, and he was very happy. He joined me as a noble concubine. But gradually he was not so happy. Although he didn't say it, I could feel it. The child in the palace only grew up with one eldest son. I knew he was worried, so I told him that it's okay, I must have a prince for him. But not long after, I took the fetal pills brought by Concubine Duan, and my child was gone. Concubine Duan has always been honest, but she dared..." Her expression was so sad that she was almost a little crazy, and her voice was shrill, "The imperial physician told me that it was a male fetus that had been formed!"

My tears came down, and my heart was heartbroken. I pounced on her and pinned her wrist tightly, and said fiercely: "Your child is gone, do you want my child to be buried with me? He is only four months old in my belly, and you are going to kill him!"

Murong Shilan waved my hand desperately, but I became tighter and tighter. A few light purple marks were printed on her fair arm. She pushed me desperately, but when she couldn't push it away, she stopped struggling. She sneered twice and said in a big breath: "I don't want to kill your child! It's because your body is useless. If you kneel for half an hour, you will miscarriage. It's because you can't protect your child. Why blame me!" Her face turned red because of her struggle: "I hate the emperor who favors you only! I have never seen the emperor pamper a woman so much. With you, the emperor doesn't care about me anymore. I don't want to wait until dawn. Women who dare to compete with me for favor will die! I asked Yu Gengyi to poison you, but I didn't want to kill your child!"

I pushed her away, threw her wrist away, and my eyes fell on her sachet, tears rolling down, and my heart was full of resentment, "You don't? Even if you don't have the intention, but if it weren't for the 'Huanyixiang' in your palace, how could I be weak and kneel for half an hour and lose my child!"

She was surprised and frightened: "Huan Yixiang?"

I smiled, and the hot tears gradually became cold, and said, "You know why you didn't get pregnant for a long time after losing your child. Do you know that there is musk in the 'Huanyi Xiang' you used? You have used it for so long and will never have children again."

Her face was distorted with anger and fear, which made people feel terrifying: "You speak nonsense! That fragrance was given to me by the emperor, how could it be..."

I sneered repeatedly: "Why can't it be? If it weren't for the emperor's intention, how could the imperial doctor tell you that your body contains musk! Not to mention that you are infertile, do you think your miscarriage was Duan Fei's pregnancy medicine? Duan Fei was just a false reputation for the emperor. No matter how much red flowers you poured into her, you wouldn't be able to replenish your child."

She was stunned in the local area, holding the sachet tightly in her hand, as if she was about to crush it. After a long time, she laughed wildly and asked in a daze: "Why? Why?"

I felt a moment of unbearableness in my heart, but soon I became hardened and said word by word: "Because you are the daughter of the Murong family and the king of Runan. If you give birth to a child, they will take the youngest son and abandon the emperor..." I didn't continue, and she naturally knew the benefits of it.

Hua Fei's clothes were covered with tears. After a while, she did not cry anymore. Her cheeks dried up. She only laughed to the sky and her body trembled violently: "Emperor - the emperor, he has caused me so much pain!"

Before the laughter was over, there was only a "bang" sound, and warm blood suddenly splashed on my face. I quickly closed my eyes and took two steps back. When I opened my eyes, my head was hitting the wall, and I fell softly to the ground, holding only the sachet containing the "Huanyi Xiang" in my hand. Until I died, I never let go. The snow-white wall was bright red, with blood stains, like a tree of bright red and dazzling peach blossoms.

My face and clothes were covered with blood. My whole heart seemed to be empty, and I couldn't move when I stood there for a long time.

That quiet, as quiet as death.

I subconsciously wiped my face and clothes with silk, and suddenly I heard a "squeaking" sound. A fat gray mouse stared at her eyes and ran over Murong Shilan's body quickly.

I just felt scared and felt sour in my heart. My throat choked and turned around and went out quickly.

Seeing me running out in a hurry, Li Chang hurriedly stopped me and said, "Empress." Seeing that I was covered in blood, he looked even more anxious and confused.

I barely calmed down and said, "Murong Xiaozhu has hit him and killed him. You can go back and report to you."

He was shocked and quickly said as usual: "Yes, I'll clean up."

I nodded and walked out slowly.

The air is cold, the pain is cold at the end of the nose, and the hands and feet are cold. Murong Shilan is dead, this woman I hate.

I should be happy, right? But I don’t feel that way, I just feel sad and sad. She entered the palace at the age of 17 and rode a horse to her, probably wouldn’t have thought that she would have such an ending today. This woman who has lived in the palace for so many years was personally designed by the person next to her to lose her child and was infertile for life.

All her sorrow was just because she was the daughter of Xuan Ling's political enemy, and because of Xuan Ling's deliberate pampering, she lost her soberness and intelligence.

I raised my eyes and it was coming to dusk. The dark old trees were dry and vigorously, twisting into a desolate posture. The boundless snow stretched endlessly, and the sound of firecrackers sounded from afar, and a setting sun was like blood.
To be continued...
