"This list is only one-tenth of the total," Xiao Conghui looked up, "This time, we can catch them all in one fell swoop."
Xiao Hanyi raised his hand and motioned Xiao Conghui to stand up.
His mind raced. Could Queen Wang’s crime be let go just like that?
After a long while, he said, "The Queen is not in good health, so let her recuperate in the Pepper Palace, and leave the affairs of the harem to Concubine Guo."
Forget it, since my son is trying hard to protect me, I'll use other methods. There are many ways to kill someone.
"Thank you, Father!"
Xiao Conghui took a deep breath and only then felt his forehead covered with sweat.
......
After coming out of Weiyang Palace, Xiao Hanyi felt much better.
It was worth his efforts during this period.
Xiao Hanyi walked quickly towards the Pepper Room. He wanted to tell his mother the good news as soon as possible.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the Pepper Room, a scream came from inside.
"Empress!"
Then followed a burst of crying and wailing.
Xiao Conghui's head suddenly buzzed, and an extremely ominous feeling spread throughout his body. Could it be that he was too late?
He didn't dare go any further in, for he was afraid that his guess would come true. He had clearly instructed Nanny Biyun to keep an eye on his mother. Nothing could have happened, impossible!
But soon, Xiao Conghui was completely forgotten.
A palace maid ran out in a hurry, bumped into Xiao Hanyi, and knelt down crying, "Your Highness, the Queen, the Queen has passed away!"
No, it's impossible...
Xiao Conghui's mind went blank and tears welled up in his eyes. They were clearly still talking just now, just now.
He wanted to go in, but his legs seemed out of control and his whole body was stiff.
When he came to his senses, he was already in Queen Wang's bedroom.
Xiao Conghui raised his eyes and glanced around. Liu Qian and Nanny Biyun were kneeling beside the bed, crying their eyes out.
Below them knelt the eunuchs and palace maids from the Pepper Room, all crying...
Queen Wang lay quietly on the bed, her eyes closed, her face pale and without a trace of blood.
At this moment, Xiao Conghui's mind was still in chaos. Was he sad? It seemed that he was so sad that he couldn't feel it. He just felt that all this was unreal.
This is not true!
It's all his fault. Why didn't he tell his father earlier? If he had told him earlier...
Xiao Conghui couldn't hold it in any longer. He strode forward, grabbed Biyun Ma's collar, and shouted, "Didn't I tell you to keep a good eye on the Queen? Why is this happening?"
Perhaps his voice was too loud, which frightened the palace maids, as they had always been afraid of him.
Biyun Mama looked haggard and her eyes were dull. "I have failed Your Highness and I beg to be buried with you."
She was deeply indebted to Queen Wang. She had only gone out to serve her tea, and when she returned...
At this moment, she just wanted to die to atone for her sins.
Liu Qian pulled Xiao Conghui away, pressed him on the chair, stroked his back gently, and told him what had happened in detail.
"Mother, I'm afraid it's your own decision..." Liu Qian said, wiping away her tears.
This happened on the first day of marrying Xiao Conghui. Liu Qian was very confused and panicked just now, but she quickly adjusted herself and now she had to stay calm.
Xiao Conghui held Liu Qian's hand tightly.
......
The news of Queen Wang's death spread throughout the six palaces in less than half a minute.
After hearing this, Xiao Hanyi just lowered his head and said, "I understand."
Then he stood up and walked to the window, staring at the scenery outside in a daze. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Soon, all the concubines from the six palaces gathered in the Pepper Room, knelt on the ground and cried symbolically.
Suddenly, the palace became lively.
"The Queen was fine during the day, why did she suddenly..."
"Yeah, isn't it strange? Today is the wedding day of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Second Prince. It was supposed to be a happy occasion, but now, the happy event has turned..."
"Did something ominous enter the palace? That person is so unlucky that he must have killed the Empress!"
"I heard that it was Concubine Xian who came to claim her life."
"You mean, Concubine Zhou?"
......
There was a lot of discussion.
Concubine Heng was listening on the side, and her heart was full of doubts.
How could he suddenly die when he was fine?
No matter what, just cry first. Concubine Heng stepped forward and cried at the top of her voice, "Empress, I am a step late. How could you bear to abandon me? I wish I could go with you, sister~"
This stunned all the concubines. Concubine Heng cried so sincerely that those who didn't know would have thought that she and Queen Wang really had a deep sisterly love.
Does she believe what she said?
Concubine Heng was crying loudly when her eyes accidentally met Xiao Conghui's. She was so scared that her whole body shuddered and her crying suddenly became much softer.
Xiao Conghui's eyes were so scary, so scary.
Just when Concubine Heng was in a dilemma under Xiao Conghui's sharp eyes, she saw Guo Xiner. She immediately leaned on Guo Xiner's shoulder, held back her tears, and pretended to be very sad.
Guo Xiner turned and dodged, then walked to Xiao Conghui and said, "Your Highness, I express my condolences~"
This Concubine Heng is good at acting, and she doesn't want to deal with her today.
Xiao Conghui bowed gently, "Don't worry, Madam Guo, I thank you."
A sharp glint flashed across Concubine Heng's eyes as she stood by.
The throne of the crown prince...
