He Sheng had just led Yun Jing out of the Chonghua Hall, and the gate was closed heavily behind the two of them. Immediately, someone took layers of iron chains to block the Chonghua Hall. In an instant, the Chonghua Hall, which was as prosperous as the past, suddenly turned into a bottomless cage.

Yun Jing opened his eyes wide and watched several guards lock Chonghua Palace without any mercy, almost stunned at the moment. He instinctively broke away from He Sheng's hand and hurried forward, "You are not allowed to lock it, my mother is still inside, you can't do this..."

Yun Jing was very weak, and the guards were still unmoved. They looked at each other and did not dare to resist, so they could only stand there in a daze. Seeing this, Cheng Dehai immediately said impatiently, "Fourth Prince, stop making trouble, you can't do anything like this. The imperial concubine angered the emperor. The emperor will punish him severely, and no one can resist the order."

"Cheng Dehai!" Before he finished speaking, a bright female voice suddenly sounded not far away. Cheng Dehai looked over and hurriedly said, "I have seen Concubine De."

"Fourth brother, come here quickly." Nianci ran up first, opened his hands, and hurriedly wanted to pull Yunjing over.

Zhou Ruohua looked at Yun Jing slightly, and looked full of pity, but when he turned to Cheng Dehai, he looked angry again, "What are you doing?"

Cheng Dehai bowed down and replied respectfully, "Return to Concubine De, this is what the emperor means. From now on, Concubine will not be allowed to step out of the Chonghua Palace gate again."

Ruohua frowned deeply, and his expression was also unwilling. "I am so cruel? I don't believe it. I want to ask the emperor to be open and be kind to him and forgive the concubine."

After speaking, she had just taken half a step when she suddenly heard a burst of laughter coming from behind.

"If you don't have favor, don't waste your time." Zhong Yuxiu and Jiang Wanran walked slowly. Her charming and slender eyes turned slightly on Zhou Ruohua's face, and suddenly smiled, "I don't look at how Concubine De came from. If the Concubine hadn't fallen out of favor, how could you have the chance to raise the Fourth Prince? I'm afraid I have to stay in the Yihe Palace with Chongyuan."

Zhou Ruohua's position at this time was comparable to Zhong Yuxiu, but compared to Yuxiu's two children at this time, he was favored by the emperor, Ruohua naturally could not match it. However, when Zhong Yuxiu was inspired by words, he naturally couldn't help but speak, "Didn't Concubine Shu climb to her current position by resigning from favor to the imperial concubine? What else can I be proud of?"

Zhong Yuxiu smiled happily, frowned her delicate brows slightly, and said with a clever smile, "Yes, so now that the imperial concubine has lost power, I am naturally very happy. I was preparing for a meal, but when I heard something happened in Chonghua Palace, I hurried to see the imperial concubine. Unexpectedly, when I came here, I didn't even see him, Chonghua Palace was locked."

Yuxiu said as she was talking, her eyebrows and eyes full of unconcealed smiles.

Zhou Ruohua looked at her slightly, and saw her big peony green smoke gauze robe covered with thick and delicate makeup, and she couldn't help but feel a strong sense of disgust from the bottom of her heart.

Such a woman is really cruel.

Ruohua was too lazy to talk to Zhong Yuxiu again, and turned around and was about to leave. When he looked back, he saw that Jiang Wanran next to Zhong Yuxiu was also wearing gorgeous outfits, wearing heavy makeup, and dressed more luxuriously than her Concubine De.

Wanran saw Ruohua's gaze, but lowered her head slightly and said nothing. Ruohua was also lazy to look at her more, only holding Nianci and Yun Jing, and left sideways by their side.

Yuerong, who was standing beside her, was stunned. She grabbed a corner of Yuxiu's clothes and asked Nuonuo, "Mother, why do they lock Chonghua Palace?"

Yuxiu looked down at her, and smiled a little, "It was the imperial concubine who did something irregular and made the emperor angry." After that, she bent down, looked at Yuerong flatly, and solemnly instructed, "Yuerong, listen well, don't go to play with your fourth brother again in the future. His mother is now out of favor. If you play with him again, even your father will not like you."

Yuerong nodded in a daze, but still said a little puzzled, "But the father seems to like the fourth brother very much. He often asks the fourth brother to go to the palace..."

Before he finished speaking, Yuxiu immediately glanced at her, "Don't talk nonsense! Your fifth brother Yun Wei is the prince the emperor likes the most."

Seeing Yuxiu getting angry, Yuerong hurriedly didn't dare to speak anymore, and hid behind Lanxiang timidly.

From the day the Chonghua Palace was blocked, the emperor also changed his temperament. He often made decisions in handling political affairs and often kept himself in Mingde Palace for a whole day without anyone seeing him.

The draft, which should have been scheduled for the tenth year of Yongchang, was also put on hold, and the emperor was even unintentionally concerned about the harem. The green-headed card, day after day, was sent to Mingde Palace, but was returned intact. But even so, Jingshifang still did not dare to neglect, for fear that one day the emperor would change his mind and his captain would be difficult to protect.

When the chief manager who wrote the Jingshi file held the ink pen and wrote the word "no" on a whole page, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

In this way, the good days in the entire harem are over.

Such days lasted until the spring of the eleventh year of Yongchang.

As spring comes, the queen becomes more ill. Since giving birth to the princess, her body has become worse than before. In addition, the serious illness in Yongchang for six years has become thinner. In recent days, she often took Yun Ke and Yun Yan to her bed, holding the hands of the two children without saying a word, but she only burst into tears.

The emperor sat beside her and couldn't help but sigh heavily, "Queen, don't think too much, it's important to keep your health well."

When Li Shushen heard this, she burst into tears. She called Yuzhi to carry the two children, and said with a sad face, "In this life, with Yun Ke and Haoxue and Yun Yu, I have no regrets."

The emperor couldn't help but frown, held the queen's hand tightly, and said in a deep voice, "Don't say that, you are still young and there will be no trouble."

The queen sighed, her expression soothed a little, "I am thirty-three years old, so why are I still young? If I were ahead, it would be no pity. However, after I left, what I worry most was the emperor."

The emperor lowered his eyes lightly, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and said warmly, "Don't worry about me, you should worry about yourself first, and you will be cured first."

The queen smiled slightly, but there was a slight sympathy in her eyes, "I have been sick these days and I have always dreamed. What I dreamed of was when I was in the palace before. In fact, when I think about it carefully, the emperor has not spent much time with me, but when I think about it, I can't finish it for days or nights."

Shushen suddenly mentioned the old story of the royal palace, and the emperor's heart couldn't help but tremble.

Eleven years have passed, and those years have been stranded. Now when I think about it, I can only remember a little bit.

He held the queen's hand, and the guilt in his eyes also arose in the clarity in his eyes. "Shushen, I used to be sorry for you. You were wronged when you were in the palace."

The queen smiled faintly, with a hint of tears in her eyes, "What are you wrong or not? I am content to be with the emperor." She was silent for a moment, and suddenly opened her lips and said, "There is only one thing that they didn't dare to say before, because they were afraid that the emperor would be angry. Now I have become like this, so it's not too much to say anything."

The emperor sighed softly, "You said."

"I Concubine Chen in Chonghua Palace, I want to ask for a love for her."

When the emperor heard this, a gloomy anger suddenly flashed in his eyes, "What did you mention her?"

"The emperor punished the imperial concubine for an affair that day, and even the prince's face was rarely seen. But I know that the rumors are untrue, and the imperial concubine will not do anything to sorry to the emperor."

The emperor closed his eyes heavily, suddenly let out a long sigh, and sighed gently, "Shushen, when I was in the mansion, I was not kind to you in Chang'an. Why did you still plead for her at this time?"

The queen's smile was as faint as a trembling crabapple blooming in the wind. When the wind blew, there was no trace of it. "Because the imperial concubine truly loves the emperor." After that, she looked with tears in her eyes and smiled gently, "I am gone, and no one in this palace will truly love the emperor. I was born in the mansion with the imperial concubine. I saw her true feelings for the emperor. After so many years, except for me, only the imperial concubine treats the emperor sincerely."

The queen's words were deep, but this sentence was filled with tears in Chu Luo's ears, which made him heartbroken.

Although he had known for a long time that the women in this palace were all competing with the dragon and phoenix, they treated him just to seek glory for a lifetime, and that little sincerity was really not worth mentioning. But when the queen stripped the reality in front of him at this moment, he felt that his heart was thrilling and there was an indescribable pain.

He hadn't been to Chonghua Palace for a long time. Every time he passed by, he would ask Cheng Dehai to change the road. Even when he stopped in front of her door, he was unwilling to do so.

Whenever he often goes to Yuhua Palace to see Yun Jing. Every time he looks at Yun Jing's little face, he will think of Chen Chang'an.

I have truly loved and really hurt.

Suddenly, the queen's violent cough interrupted Chu Luo's thoughts. He immediately helped the queen up and watched her cough heavily in the spittoon, his heart trembled.

When I returned to Mingde Palace, it was already You hour.

The eunuch in the Jingshifang brought the green-headed sign into the hall, holding the green-headed sign, raising his hands high above his head. This action was just a gesture. The emperor had not turned over the sign for half a year. He was waiting to hear the emperor say "Go down", and then he did nothing, so he didn't care.

Chu Luo looked over one by one, but as expected, he did not see Chen Chang'an's name.

His fingers fell on Jiang Wanran's sign and flipped it gently.

Hearing the sound above his head, the eunuch was almost stunned. He looked at Cheng Dehai, who was standing beside the emperor in a daze, but was mercilessly glanced at him.

"What are you doing while standing there? Why don't you pass the sedan chair to Changning Palace!"

After saying that, Cheng Dehai reached out to support the emperor with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, let's go here."
