114 And Su Heyu stood up in shock
The queen nodded to the emperor, and then turned her head to order Mu Xi to take out the birthday gift. Mu Xiruan went down the stone steps and took the painting from Xigu's hand, walked to the high platform and slowly opened it.
After the whole painting was opened, His Highness's people suddenly spoke loudly, and Su Heyu stood up in shock and looked at every word on the painting in disbelief.
Mu Xiran's bright eyes inadvertently flashed a smile and turned around to let the emperor see that when he saw each word on it, he was also stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he stared at the painting, "This is... Yi'an's word. How is that possible?"
"When I returned to the emperor, it took Xi Ruan five days and five nights to copy the font of Princess Zhaohua. Seeing the emperor's surprise, Xi'an's hard work was not in vain. Mu Xiran explained calmly. Looking at the shock in the emperor's eyes gradually turning into joy, Mu Xiran knew that the painting was the right one.
"The female official wrote 100 birthday words in the font of Princess Zhaohua. This painting is comparable to every birthday gift given by Princess Zhaohua. The female official is really attentive. The emperor should reward her well. The German concubine sitting under the queen couldn't help praising.
"Princess De praised it. How can the birthday gift given to the emperor by Princess Zhaohua be compared with it?" Mu Xian's eyes fell to the ground with a modest tone, and then said, "This is the Queen's birthday gift to the emperor, and the queen should be rewarded."
When the emperor saw Xi's Yanyan's smiling face, he nodded repeatedly, and then turned his head to call Grandpa Gao, "Let me put away this picture of longevity. As for the reward, wait for me to think about it. After saying that, he glanced around the hall and said, "Let's start the banquet."
Mu Xijian stood behind the queen again and looked at Wan Zhaoyi for the first time. It happened that Wan Zhaoyi also looked at her. The two eyes met, and the surface looked calm and waveless, but in fact, the dark waves were surging inside.
Mu Xilan had no interest in the concubines' art one by one, and he couldn't help looking at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu received her eyes, turned his head and ordered Qin Yi softly. Soon, he saw Xigu on the high platform and came to Mu Xilan's ear, "If the girl is very boring, go out. There are slaves here, so girls don't have to worry.
Mu Xiran was relieved and nodded silently and retreated.
Walking out of the Tsinghua Hall, Mu Xilan sat on the stone next to her and pounded her already sore legs, but when she waited for Qin Yu to come out, she was a little impatient.
The moonlight tonight is cold and flawless, and it is even more gloomy and desolate on the branches.
"Ouch." The maid holding the wine pot and wine glass was unstable under her feet, tilted her body and knocked over the plate.
Mu Xi ran over to help her pick up the wine pot and wine glass and put them on the wine plate. When she reached out to help the maid, she found that the fragrance of the maid of honor was a little special. She hesitated for a moment and still stepped forward to pick up the maid of honor and could clearly see the appearance of the maid of honor by the moonlight.
The maid took the plate and bowed to Mu Xi, "Thank you, lady."
"Go ahead." Mu Xiqi watched the maid enter the Tsinghua Hall before returning to sit down on the stone. Unexpectedly, when the hot wind blew at night, she felt a little dizzy, so she staggered up and went back to Kunning Palace.
At this time, in the main hall of Tsinghua Hall, a song and dance had just ended, and Su and Zi, who retreated, were wrapped in light green smoke, which made the beautiful facial features more dazzling and gorgeous, not to mention the clenched waist. I don't know how many people present were infatuated. Go.
Su and Zi went to the side hall and prepared to slow down their skirts, but saw their maids coming in a hurry and whispered to her. Su and Zi's arrogant mouths appeared with a little unclear smile, and then they left in a hurry without changing their clothes.
The music in the hall continued, but after a moment, a maid of Deyang Palace hurriedly ran to the high platform and said something in Xigu's ear. Xigu's face changed, nodded to let her retreat aside, and then came to the queen's ear to prepare to speak.
The concubine Wan opposite smiled delicately, "Your Majesty, the maid of honor seems to be from Deyang Palace."
The emperor consciously turned his head and looked at the maid. Seeing that the maid's face was pale, he couldn't help saying in a low voice, "What's wrong? But what's the matter?"
Xigu had to say respectfully, "Your Majesty, something has happened to Yue Guiren."
Su Heyue, the nobleman of Yue, did not see today's banquet because of his body.
"What's the matter?" The emperor's face immediately showed displeasure.
"To the emperor, someone stabbed the noble moon." Xigu still told the truth under the emperor's majesty.
Sure enough, as soon as Xi Gu's words fell, the emperor suddenly stood up and got off the platform with his hands behind his back. "I want to see who is so bold and hurt my children."
Such a thing happened on the high platform, and the ministers on both sides of His Highness naturally saw it clearly.
Seeing this, the queen had to order, "If something happens to the palace, let's party tonight." This will be handed over to Princess Shu. After saying that, let Xigu help to follow the emperor's figure.
Shu Guifei raised her eyebrows and looked at Wan Zhaoyi, with a light smile on her red lips. "It's really a killing two birds with one stone."
"Sister, don't talk nonsense about what happened to Yue Guiren. I don't know yet." Wan Zhaoyi bowed to the noble concubine and asked the maid of honor behind her to follow her.
On the way to Deyang Palace, the queen found that Mu Xi'an was no longer around. She couldn't help but feel tight and asked Xi Gu, "Where has Xi'an gone? Don't be calculated."
There were several happy events in the palace, not to mention the emperor's son. If there is an accident, it is a serious crime to murder the emperor's heir. The closer the queen approached Deyang Palace, the more uneasy she felt, and the hand holding Xigu sweated coldly.
Xigu is also uncertain, "The female officer was called out by Prince Jing'an."
The queen recalled the person who had just sat down, "I remember that Prince Jing'an didn't go out during this period..." Holding Xigu's hand tightened again, "I haven't had such a feeling in my heart for a long time."
The emperor followed the maid of honor, and the maid of honor advanced into the Deyang Palace and raised the curtain for the emperor. When the emperor saw the scene in the room, his footsteps suddenly came down, and the maid of honor behind him also screamed when she saw the scene and covered her eyes and retreated repeatedly.
The queen's heart thumped. First, she was stunned, and then hurried forward and pushed away the maid in front of her. At this time, a piece of blood spread on the bluestone floor of the room. Yue Guiren lay on the ground in white, and the bright light from the dagger inserted in her lower abdomen pierced everyone's eyes outside.
"Save me... save me..." Fortunately, Yue Guiren is still moaning in pain.
The queen woke up in an instant and waved her hand and ordered, "Xi Gu, go and call the imperial doctor here. It's important to save people." At this time, her voice was already a little trembling. "What are you still doing? Go and get some hot water. Those clean brocades come."
"Madam, it's unlucky in the room. You'd better stand here." Seeing that the queen was about to step in, Xigu quickly reached out and grabbed her.
"It's nothing, I've seen a lot of this kind of scene. It's important to save people first." Despite everyone's opposition, the queen walked to Yue Gui's side, "He Yue, please hold on... I will save you."
Su Heyue is the queen's niece and the queen grew up. If such things happened by blood, how can she, as an aunt, care so much?
The emperor calmed down a little, touched a string of footprints near the threshold, and his eyes were cold. "Come on, go to the palaces and search, and immediately find blood-stained embroidered shoes for me."
"He Yue, who do you see?" The queen also tried to ask, but she was eager to know the answer, but she didn't want to know.
Su Heyue leaned in the queen's arms, gasped weakly and shook his head. "At that time... He Yue was sitting with his back to the door. Suddenly, a dagger stabbed him. He Yue only saw the man's hand... It was a woman's hand..."
While talking, the imperial doctor had arrived, looked at Su Heyue's wound calmly, and then said in a low voice, "Please move. I want to help Yue Guiren pull out the dagger."
The emperor had to nod silently, turn around and walk out.
In a short time, I heard the dull hum of the woman in the room, the sound of the royal doctor's continuous instructions, and the queen's voice of concern. Soon the dagger was pulled out, but the wound was bleeding, and the imperial doctor was sweating anxiously.
It seems that a long time has passed, and the imperial doctor came out sweating, "Your Majesty, Yue Guiren has fallen asleep." Don't mention anything about the child.
The emperor pondered for a moment, or insisted on asking, "Where's the child?"
"The child has been dead for a long time." The royal doctor also answered carefully. Looking at the emperor's face, he hurriedly said, "Yue Guiren is still young. When he is well-cupied, there will be children."
Of course, the last sentence came to the emperor's heart. Sure enough, the emperor's face was a little grim, "Well, let Yue Guiren take good care of himself."
"I understand." The royal doctor returned to the house.
And the searcher over there has also returned. Yi Xiao, the imperial bodyguard, personally returned to his order, "Go back to the emperor, except Kunning Palace and Deyang Palace, all the palaces in the harem have been carefully searched, and no suspicious embroidered shoes have been found."
"Go to Kunning Palace, too. Don't let people suspect me." The queen lifted the curtain and calmly ordered.
Yi Xiao turned his head and looked at the bodyguard, who took the order and left.
At this time, Concubine Shu and Concubine Wan also came to Deyang Palace. Concubine Wan couldn't wait to go to the emperor. Tears grabbed her eyes, and her delicate face was also slightly white. "Your Majesty... I'm so scared." The other hand covered his lower abdomen.
The emperor's frown gradually lowered his eyebrows and patted Wanfei's hand, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect this child."
has lost a child, and the emperor will pay more attention to this child.
"Your Majesty, I feel that the dagger is very familiar." Shu Guifei squinted at the dagger with blood brought out of the room. After thinking about it, she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Isn't this... the dagger of the lady?"
