Chapter 408 Absurdity
“Queen Empress, the tea you asked for is here.”
A palace maid came from behind with a tray and said.
“Didn’t this palace say that no one should disturb this palace cleanliness?”
Queen Qi said coldly, in the past, the maids at this time would be scared and immediately retreat, but the maid continued to take a few steps forward, and then half-kneeled and presented the tray of tea.
“The Empress, it’s me.”
The voice of the palace maid was very familiar. Yin Miao stood up and looked at Qi Lingxi with a full smile. She wore an ordinary mask. Even if she was thrown into the pile of maids, no one would recognize her from the palace. Palace maid.
“It’s you? What about you, King Xuan?”
Qi Lingxi got up immediately, but worried about what others might see, and sat down slowly.
“He has entered Beijing.”
Yin Miaoyue felt that Xiao Xuan should have arrived in the palace now, but they are acting separately, and she is not sure yet.
“Listen to me, immediately let King Xuan take the rest away from the capital and go to any other place. You should already know that, now King Xuan has been named as a treason.”
Queen Qi finished anxiously, but saw that Yin Miao did not seem anxious at all.
“Don’t worry, the soldiers who returned to Beijing victoriously won’t meet with the soldiers in Beijing, let alone conflict.”
Yin Miao said with a smile.
Queen Qi was stunned for a moment, and her expression gradually became relieved: “Yeah, King Xuan is so powerful that nothing in this capital can escape his attention. It seems that I am overthinking it. Since that’s the case, you are here again. What is going on in this palace?”
Being able to enter the palace with another face undetected is no longer a common method. King Xuan may have come back to seek revenge, but what about this Yin Miao who has been eluding her for a long time?
“The maiden doesn’t have to think too much, I just promised Granny Lin to protect you as best I can, and these things have not been returned to you before.”
Yin Miao took out the letters that Granny Lin gave her. These are Jiu Yiniang’s thoughts and reluctance to her daughter. If possible, she hopes that Queen Qi can understand Jiu Yiniang’s painstaking efforts and live a good life.
The letter was taken out by Yin Miao, Queen Qi put down the white cat in her arms, opened the letter with trembling hands and looked at it. It only took a moment for her to burst into tears.
“Don’t look at the rest.”
Queen Qi closed her eyes and closed the only open letter.
She didn’t want to look at it, and looking at these things in her current situation would undoubtedly become the heaviest shackles. Seeing that Queen Qi cherished those letters into her arms.
Yin Miao no longer insisted. The task she gave herself today was to ensure the safety of Queen Qi. As long as Xiao Xuan’s side succeeded, Queen Qi would no longer be in danger.
Thinking of the system task that she was about to complete, Yin Miao suddenly felt a little nervous.
“King Xuan has started now?”
Queen Qi stared blankly at the far side of the pavilion. After today, will she be able to escape this bottomless cage?
“maybe.”
Yin Miao only stayed by Queen Qi’s side for half an hour, when the **** came to report, and the emperor invited the Queen’s concubine to go to the Jinghe Palace for a chat.
Jinghe Palace is the place where the ancestors of the ancestors of the Nanxiao Kingdom entered the incense. When Queen Qi heard this, she frowned and asked,
“Why did the emperor go to Jinghe Palace?”
“Back to the Empress, the Emperor went to Jinghe Palace, and naturally he went to offer incense to the Supreme Emperors.”
The **** replied.
“Bengong knows, you go down first, and Bengong will go later.” Queen Qi ordered.
After the **** left, Yin Miao also wanted to stop her: “I think it’s better for the empress not to go.”
She didn’t know how far Xiao Xuan’s side had gone, but felt that at this critical time, it would be better for the empress not to meet.
“The Hall of Peace and Harmony is the place he values most, and I must go.”
The more she realized that she had made a mistake, the more regretful she felt. Even if it was about her former lover, she had to take care of him personally.
Yin Miao had some headaches, but fortunately she was a palace maid now. She was worried about Queen Qi’s safety, so she planned to go with her.
Queen Qi hesitated to speak, but in the end she didn’t say anything. She only brought another palace maid, Yuhuan, and went to Jinghe Hall with herself.
Yuhuan looked strangely at the maid next to her, but she never remembered which palace she was from, but remembering that she had only been serving for a few days, she held back her doubts.
Jinghe Hall was still a little far from the Imperial Garden, Empress Qi did not use a sedan chair, Yin Miao also took the opportunity to look at the current situation in the palace.
This is not the first time she has entered the palace, but it is the first time she has seen the inside of the palace.
After the rain, the sky is blue and dazzling, and the golden-yellow glazed tile roof with double eaves is extraordinarily brilliant. Qin bricks and Han tiles, purple pillars and golden beams, and fences made of carved jade and jade…the grandeur also revealed sophistication, all of which made Yin Miao linger.
Going forward, a large hall came into view. The three characters on the golden black background read “Jinghe Hall”. The gray and white wall tiles gave people a solemn and solemn feeling, but before entering the door, Yin Miao could smell it. A faint smell of blood.
Could it be that Xiao Xuan has already started to act?
But after entering the hall, Yin Miao saw the scene here, accompanied by a sigh of relief from Yuhuan.
In the courtyard of Jinghe Hall, the bodies of more than a dozen guards were scattered all over the place, and two court ladies were kneeling outside the hall, leaning over and sobbing.
“Why are you kneeling here?”
Although Queen Qi ignored the affairs of the harem, she still had some impressions of the clothes of these guards and palace maids. These people should be the maid guards in Zheng Taifei’s palace.
“The Queen Mother, back to the Queen Mother, it was the emperor who announced the concubine to enter the Jinghe Palace, but, but…”
The maid on the left had tears and humiliation all over her face, but she couldn’t go on talking.
Empress Qi had already realized something. She pushed open the door of the hall with an ugly face. The rich scent of aphrodisiac and musk came from the hall. The sun shone in and reflected on Concubine Zheng’s scarred and scantily clad jade. On top of the body, and next to him is Emperor Xiao, who has already been dressed and is drinking tea.
“Princess Zheng!”
Queen Qi stepped forward and found that Concubine Zheng on the ground had already lost her breath.
Concubine Zheng was the most favored and youngest concubine of the late emperor. Before his death, the emperor issued a special decree to save her from being buried with her, but she spent the rest of her life peacefully in the palace. I didn’t expect him to do such a ridiculous thing. .
“The queen is here? I don’t know which dog slave who wanted to plot against me gave aphrodisiac here, and it happened that Concubine Zheng was also caught, and she couldn’t help but rushed towards me, presumably the concubine is also hungry and thirsty all the year round… ”
Emperor Xiao was full of jokes, and the two maids outside the door collapsed after seeing the scene inside the house and rushed in, crying over Concubine Zheng.
“He has no grievances with you, why would you do such a lewd thing in front of the royal ancestors?”
Queen Qi’s shoulders were trembling slightly, Emperor Xiao, no, Ding Yizhou was deliberately humiliating the royal family.
