The old man brought Meng Xinzhu to Yuedu, but was stopped by the city guard, who carefully interrogated them about where they were going.
Meng Xinzhu told them that she was here to visit relatives, and that her younger sister was the maid of Prince Kang's palace xxx. As soon as she entered the city gate, Meng Xinzhu noticed that there were many people gathered at the place where the imperial list was posted, and she heard them discussing that the emperor wanted to kill the eunuch.
Palace maid or something. She felt nervous and asked the old man to stop the carriage and find someone to ask. After hearing what the woman said, Meng Xinzhu felt cold to the soles of her feet. Hongde Longqiu actually wanted to kill Eunuch Chen and the others!
"Old man, please send me to Prince Jing's Mansion."
The nursing staff of Prince Jing's Mansion stopped the old man's carriage and shouted for them to leave quickly. Meng Xinzhu knew that Huang Bang said that Xiao Chenzi and the others were going to be executed for theft. It seemed that her disappearance had not been made public, so she would
It was inconvenient to reveal her identity, and with her current appearance, no one would believe that she was the Bamboo Concubine. She took a breath and said to one of the nurses: "Go and tell Prince Jing that someone brought poppies to visit him."
"What poppy? It's useless what you brought, the prince can't see anyone now!"
Meng Xinzhu smiled and said, "Go ahead and tell him, and he will definitely see me. If you conceal it and don't report it, I'm afraid your prince will find out and your life will be in danger."
"Yo, you're threatening me!"
"If I just threaten you, that's it. But if what I say is true, won't you lose your life?"
The nurse was startled and looked at the two people on the carriage. There are so many strange people these days, maybe they really have some abilities. "Then you wait, I will go in and report."
Hongde Longhao was sitting in the study, and Yu'er was wiping tears aside. In the end, the disappearance of the emperor's sister-in-law could not be hidden from her.
"Your Majesty, there is someone outside the door asking to see you."
"Didn't I say that I will never see you again?"
"The villain said the same thing, but what she said was, bring Poppy to see the prince, and the prince will definitely meet him."
"Asshole! I don't care what kind of poppy he brings, it's for babies..." Hongde Longhao was suddenly stunned, poppy? It's the plant mentioned by the Bamboo Concubine! Yu'er also stopped crying, and the two looked at each other.
Look, everyone rushed out of the study.
The gatekeepers did not expect that the prince would actually come out to see the man with the poppy, and even the princess would come out.
Hongde Longhao walked to the carriage and was about to call out "Royal Sister-in-law", but he held back, "Mrs. Zhu, you are back." Yu'er had already burst into tears and could not speak at all.
Meng Xinzhu frowned, propped up her body, and asked softly: "Mr. Long, are you going to kill Xiao Chenzi for me?" Hongde Longhao was stunned and nodded. She closed her eyes, "It seems that I am talking nonsense.
That’s a lot to say! Please, Master Shi, take me back! Take me back!”
As soon as they entered the palace, they heard that the emperor had gone to the Bamboo Garden. Hongde Longhao frowned. Since the disappearance of the Bamboo Concubine, the emperor had not been to the Bamboo Garden. Why did he want to go today? He would not really go to end those three days.
Personal life, right? He carried Meng Xinzhu on his back and went straight to the Bamboo Garden, thinking: Brother Emperor, now that the Emperor's wife is back, you must not do anything stupid!
Although he had endured it for a long time, he still couldn't help but go to Zhuyuan. Hongde Longqiu stood quietly beside the magnolia tree in Zhuyuan. Here, he saw Meng Xinzhu for the first time. Although she was wearing makeup at that time, she was confused.
He lost himself, but he was still moved by her songs. For such a long time, he was somewhat grateful to the unmasked Concubine Zhu. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have known Meng Xinzhu, and if he didn't know her, he wouldn't have known her.
There will be happiness and sadness during this time.
Eunuch Chen and others were kneeling in the Bamboo Garden. The imperial list had been released for a few days. Although they didn't understand why the emperor did this, they all knew that their lives had been marked by the emperor's approval. Alas, in the palace
People live with their heads in their hands, and their heads may be lost if they are not careful. But they don’t understand why Concubine Zhu suddenly went to Prince Kang’s Mansion, and knowing that they were about to be beheaded, she would not come back. The one who would do it for them
And the Bamboo Concubine, who seeks to abolish the death penalty, would not be such a heartless person!
Hongde Longhao was running in the imperial garden with Meng Xinzhu on his back, and Yu'er followed behind him panting. When he was approaching the Zhuyuan, Meng Xinzhu asked him to let him go, "Long Hao, you go first, I will come later.
.”
"Okay!" Hongde Longhao also began to worry that the emperor's brother would be impulsive and take serious action.
Hongde Longhao rushed into the Bamboo Garden and saw Eunuch Chen and others kneeling in the courtyard. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he caught up.
Hongdelong looked at the imperial brother who was standing by the tree. The emperor's face looked haggard, sad and helpless. He shook his head, walked forward and said softly: "Brother Huang, the emperor's sister-in-law is back."
Hongde Longqiu shook his head, "No, I just... want to come over and have a look!"
Hongde Longhao couldn't help but smile, "Brother Emperor, I mean the emperor's sister-in-law is back. I just took her into the palace."
Hongde Longqiu turned around suddenly and looked at his tenth brother, "What did you say?"
Hongde Longhao pointed to the door, "See for yourself."
Hongde Longqiu turned around and saw Yu'er supporting Meng Xinzhu into the Bamboo Garden. For a moment, he had an unreal feeling.
"Your Majesty!" Lianhua cried and stepped forward, hugging Meng Xinzhu's legs. "My Majesty, Lianhua thought he would never see your Majesty again."
Meng Xinzhu patted her gently, looked at Eunuch Chen and Ru'er, and felt relieved when she saw that they were both fine.
Eunuch Chen also had a look of joy on his face. The empress finally returned to Zhuyuan. He knew that the empress was not a cruel person and would not let them die in vain. Meng Xinzhu nodded to him, then looked at Ru'er, but saw the palace maid's face.
He glanced at her expressionlessly, then lowered his head. She frowned, noticing the trace of hatred in Ru'er's eyes. Alas, she couldn't blame her, she was the one who caused them all. She gently stroked away Lotus's tears,
She said: "I'm sorry, I came back late and made you suffer."
"Empress! Please help me! Lianhua didn't steal anything. Lianhua doesn't want to die!" After all, Lianhua was the youngest in the Bamboo Garden. Knowing that she was going to be beheaded, she was already frightened.
Meng Xinzhu raised her head and looked at Hongde Longqiu. The pain in her back invaded her. She couldn't help but hold on to Lotus's collar. After a long time to recover, she said: "I am the one who made the mistake. Please don't be implicated, Your Majesty."
Others, my concubines, will be punished voluntarily."
She is finally back! Hongde Longqiu looked at the person who made him worry so much. She was really back and appeared in front of him. He really wanted to rush forward and hug her tightly, but when he heard her words
But it made him so sad. Yes, Xiao Chenzi's life was the trump card in his hand, but it was also the card he least wanted to use. He didn't want to see her return to him because of these minions.
But after she disappeared for so long, it was really because of these slaves that she returned to the palace and appeared in front of him. Did she know how heartbroken this would make him?
