Feng Lingyu didn't take this matter to heart at all. She just wanted to stabilize his mood temporarily and nodded lightly.
The next day came the bad news that Concubine Lian hanged herself in the cold palace and left a letter in which she took all the blame.
Feng Lingyu only felt that this matter was particularly begging for luck. How could this be possible? Concubine Lian was still begging him to help her the night before, and then she hanged herself in one night. This was not like his character.
"Why is the Queen in a daze here?"
Zhao Yurou rushed over as soon as she heard the news. I am afraid that no one in the palace would believe that this person would hang himself for no reason.
This is so unlike his usual arrogant and domineering character.
"Yesterday Concubine Lian begged me for mercy and asked me to help her, but she died today. Did she really die because I didn't give her hope?"
Feng Lingyu was very conflicted in her heart. She was not a holy mother, and Concubine Lian should have died long ago for what she did.
But if she died at this juncture, was she trying to hide something, or was she killed by someone?
The idea that suddenly appeared in her mind shocked her, and she exclaimed, "Someone must want to kill Concubine Lian. It is impossible for her to hang herself!"
"When I heard the news, I found it incredible, but who in this harem would dare to kill her?
The skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the concubines dare not show their faces at all. These days, there are no people hanging out in the back garden, and everyone is staying behind closed doors."
Zhao Yurou felt that this possibility was very low. Who would have the courage to kill a noble concubine, and who would have the strength.
The two people almost blurted out the same words at the same time.
"Shu Fei!"
Zhao Yurou and Feng Lingyu looked at each other, understanding each other tacitly.
"Concubine Shu just made Chen Xiaolian hang herself some time ago, and she found a way to kill Concubine Lian!
If I remember correctly, Concubine Lian seems to be the more powerful of the two!"
Zhao Yurou was also very puzzled. Aren't the two of them just trying to vent their anger? Why are they still killing each other now?
"Concubine Shu seems to not care about anything, but in fact it's him who makes the ideas behind her back.
Concubine Lian thought she could control Concubine Shu, but she was wrong, Concubine Shu was not as simple as he thought, she was just pretending to be obedient."
Feng Lingyu finally figured out what kind of relationship the two of them had. Usually the one who laughs last in such things is the king.
On the surface, Concubine Lian was highly regarded by the emperor, and the emperor let her handle all matters big and small, just to make other women jealous.
Concubine Shu and Concubine Lian entered the palace at almost the same time, and their status in the palace was almost the same. On weekdays, Concubine Lian showed off her power and power, so no one would be angry to see it.
"Can't you see that Concubine Shu is not only brave and dares to have an affair, but she also dares to do such a thing? Your Majesty doesn't want to investigate?"
Zhao Yurou didn't know where she got the melon seeds and put them on the table, eating them while chatting about her home life.
Feng Lingyu picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and shook her head, "The emperor doesn't seem to be interested in these things. I don't know what chips the emperor has in his hands. He doesn't seem to care whether this person is dead or alive.
.
I didn’t even go to take a look, and I heard that the appearance of death was so ugly that the eunuchs on duty were scared to death!”
Zhao Yurou was very scared after hearing this. She had quarreled with that woman before. Could that woman have turned into a ghost and come to catch her?
She stopped eating melon seeds and grabbed the Queen's wrist with one hand, "Empress, they say that people who hang themselves are ghosts who have died, and they cannot be reincarnated!
What should you do if you want to find me tonight?"
"It's not like you killed her, so why is he looking for you?"
Feng Lingyu looked at her and smiled helplessly. It was really funny how Zhao Yurou fell into the trap of Liushen.
"I had a fight with her yesterday. What if she thinks about it when she dies and turns into a ghost and floats to me..."
Zhao Yurou couldn't even imagine that she wanted to stay, but Feng Lingyu had no choice but to let her stay with Sunflower.
After Aaron Cole, Xiao Hong, and Xiao Lu knew about this incident, Xiao Hong and Xiao Lu were very impatient. After all, the person was dead, and they often bullied that person, so they must have been a little scared.
of.
But there was one thing that was particularly strange. Aaron Cole decided to come over and have a good talk with the Queen.
So she jumped over the wall, and Feng Lingyu and Zhao Yurou looked in the direction of the sound.
"Queen, I heard that the imperial concubine next door is dead?"
Aaron Cole came over, sat on a stone chair nearby and asked calmly, "How did you die? Xiaohong and Xiaolu were so scared that they don't dare to leave the house now!"
"I heard he committed suicide by hanging..."
"This is impossible. The imperial concubine does not seem to be someone who can commit suicide. And last night, I heard someone chatting next door. Someone must have killed the imperial concubine or forced her to commit suicide!"
Last night, Aaron Cole vaguely heard someone chatting in the room next door, and then it turned into a quarrel, and then there was no sound.
She didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and realized it later. She didn't think of it until this morning. When she learned that Concubine Lian was dead, she became even more convinced that someone else must have taken her there last night.
"But the eunuch guarding the door said that he didn't see anyone coming in!"
"As for how I got in, I don't know. Anyway, I heard the sound, and I heard it very clearly. There was a wall between our two rooms.
Sometimes Xiaohong and Xiaolu would play pranks and like to knock on the wall at night.
But last night, Xiaohong and Xiaolu went to bed very early. Late at night, there was a rustling sound coming from the next door, like someone chatting. The sound was sometimes louder and sometimes softer, and after a while there was no sound.
.”
Arunkel's sleep was relatively light and she couldn't fall asleep if there was any movement. She felt scared just thinking about it now.
"Is that a boy or a girl?"
"It's a woman. If it was a man, I would definitely go over and have a look yesterday!"
Although Aaron Cole was a little scared, if he heard a man's voice that night, he would definitely run over to catch him.
"A woman? Concubine Lian is so powerful, how could she be forced to death? Someone must be trying to harm her.
But who is this person? How could she have such great ability to sneak into the cold palace quietly and leave quietly!"
Zhao Yurou was muttering questions in her head. When she asked, the people next to her made a bold guess.
Could it be that the murderer was hiding around them? Could it be that the murderer was a certain empress in the cold palace?
"Which empress lives in the palace closest to Concubine Lian?"
Feng Lingyu suddenly became vigilant and looked at Alan Cole very seriously and asked.
"That wall is very high. I don't know who lives on the other side of the wall!"
