"I want to know the truth. Go and check it for me!" Concubine Yu widened her eyes. She couldn't believe that her only brother left her like this.
Not long after, the informant came to report that the situation was indeed as rumored.
Concubine Yu suddenly fell to the ground, her chest aching. After she entered the palace, her brother took good care of her, but now he died an untimely death. How could she not hate him?
"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences!" The maidservant beside her was frightened when she saw the red eyes of Concubine Yu. She quickly knelt on the ground and comforted Concubine Yu to accept her condolences.
But how could Concubine Yu listen to all this at this moment? "Gu Yanyue! I want you to pay for your blood debt with blood!"
Everyone else lowered their heads, pretending not to hear.
Soon, the news of Yu An's death reached Shangguan Yi's ears. After hearing the reason for the incident, she couldn't help but feel a little numb on her scalp. Looking at the two people who were still trapped in the palace by her, she gathered her sleeves and said, as if showing mercy, "Since you still have things to do, this princess will not keep you here!"
Gu Yanyue then took Qin Ruoruo away. As soon as they left, Shangguan Yi followed them out of the bedroom, but Shangguan Yi left in the direction of the empress dowager's bedroom.
When Gu Yanyue arrived, Yu An was already dead. Qin Ruoruo shook her head helplessly, "He's dead, there's no way to save him!"
Concubine Yu had always had a grudge against her, and now she must be holding a grudge against her. Gu Yanyue glanced at Yuwen Ran, a hint of sadness in her eyes. It was true that she wanted to get rid of the spy, but she had never intended to kill anyone.
Yu Wenran seemed to have seen through Gu Yanyue's thoughts and reached out to embrace Gu Yanyue in his arms, "Don't blame Ah Yue!"
At this time, Shangguan Yi also arrived at the Queen Mother's bedroom. The Queen Mother was dozing off when she was suddenly startled by a voice, "Mother, Mother, save me!"
The Queen Mother then opened her eyes and frowned slightly, "You are already so old, why are you still so impulsive? How can you be so unbecoming?"
"Mother, Yu An is dead!" Shangguan Yi said this in shock, as if she was dreaming.
Shangguan Yi then recounted the entire story in detail. The Empress Dowager's expression grew increasingly serious. "Now that things have come to this, as long as you stubbornly refuse to admit anything, even the Emperor won't be able to do anything to you. With me here, let's see who dares to touch a hair on your head!"
Shangguan Yi was immediately moved to tears, "I know that your majesty loves you the most. Your majesty is the best!"
"Don't mention what happened today to anyone. Just let it rot in your stomach!" The Queen Mother sighed and gently patted Shangguan Yi's hand.
Shangguan Yi nodded vigorously, chatted with the Queen Mother for some personal words, and then left.
Yu An died. As Yu An's biological sister, Concubine Yu naturally had the right to know. Yu Wenran and Gu Yanyue even personally transported Yu An's body over.
Concubine Yu was already heartbroken because of her brother's death. After seeing the body with her own eyes, she cried until her eyes turned red.
Gu Yanyue felt a little sorry and said softly, "Now that things have come to this, Concubine Yu should accept the loss and mourn. I'm sure that if your brother is still alive, he wouldn't want Concubine Yu to be so sad."
Concubine Yu nodded, but her eyes were still fixed on the corpse lying on the ground.
"This matter is also my fault. If I had been able to treat your brother in time, he might have had a chance of survival. I'm sorry!" Gu Yanyue hesitated for a long time, and finally said what was in her heart.
Seeing Gu Yanyue bowing to her, Concubine Yu hurried to help her, "I understand everything. I know that Madam Zhenguo is not the kind of person who would stand by and watch someone die without helping. I have never blamed Madam Zhenguo!"
But when her eyes fell on Qin Ruoruo behind Gu Yanyue, the hatred in her heart grew wildly as if possessed.
Qin Ruoruo is clearly a miracle doctor. With such a great miracle doctor by her side, why would she need to ask for an imperial physician? Could it be that the miracle doctor couldn't heal a minor knife wound? Perhaps she didn't want to save him!
"I can testify for Madam Zhenguo. The situation is urgent and Madam Zhenguo is indeed not to blame!" Yu Wenran was afraid that Concubine Yu would believe the rumors and misunderstand, so he also testified for Gu Yanyue.
Concubine Yu smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. I trust Madam Zhenguo's character. I just feel sorry for my poor brother. Since I entered the palace, he has been busy running around for me and has suffered a lot. Now he has ended up like this!"
As she spoke, Concubine Yu shed two more lines of tears.
Yu Wenran comforted them a few more words, then left with Gu Yanyue and the others.
Staring at their departing backs, Concubine Yu's eyes gradually turned vicious. "This palace is all caused by you. How can I forgive you? I hate you so much!"
But the few of them had already walked far away, completely unaware that Concubine Yu had already held a grudge against them.
Yu Fei knelt on the ground, touched Yu An's already cold cheek, and said with trembling hands, "Don't worry, sister will avenge you, go with peace of mind!"
"Take good care of the young master's body and bury him with dignity!" Concubine Yu instructed the people around her, and then she sorted her clothes and went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.
The eunuchs and maids around them hurriedly packed up, not daring to delay for a moment.
About a quarter of an hour later, Concubine Yu arrived at the Empress Dowager's courtyard. When the Empress Dowager heard that it was Concubine Yu who came to visit, she directly had someone bring Concubine Yu in.
"I heard about what happened today. Please accept my condolences, Concubine Yu!" The empress dowager's face was full of grief, as if Yu An was her biological son.
Yu Fei had long lost all feelings in her heart, and her only thought now was to avenge Yu An!
"The Queen Mother once asked me about cooperation. I wonder if it still counts?" Concubine Yu went straight to the point and made her intention clear.
The Queen Mother put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Of course it counts. As long as Concubine Yu is sincere, I will naturally not treat her unfairly!"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yu clenched her teacup tightly, as if she was holding the neck of an enemy. "If you want me to work for the Queen Mother, it's not impossible. I have only one request: Gu Yanyue will be at my disposal from now on!"
The Queen Mother was stunned at first, then she realized that it seemed that the news spread by Prince Xiang had taken effect. Concubine Yu completely hated Gu Yanyue.
"I will agree to Concubine Yu!" How could Gu Yanyue have a good life if she fell into Concubine Yu's hands? The Queen Mother said a few words of comfort to Concubine Yu, and then had someone send Concubine Yu away.
From the beginning to the end, Concubine Yu had no idea who was the culprit who killed her own brother. But it was understandable that the Queen Mother had a good plan. How could Concubine Yu be her opponent?
"Come out!" After seeing off Concubine Yu, the empress dowager glanced behind the screen.
A man walked out. It was Prince Xiang, the direct murderer of Yu An. He looked at the Queen Mother with a smile on his face, "My Queen Mother is wise!"
"Stop flattering me and be careful in the future so as not to get caught!" The Queen Mother glanced at King Xiang and warned him.
