Bei Mingxuan waved his hand and put on his clothes in an instant, "Say it again!"
"The Grand Empress Dowager has passed away." Fu Lin said cautiously, "Everyone in Shoukang Palace said they saw the Empress drugging her... So, it was the Empress who killed the Grand Empress Dowager."
"Chang'an?" Bei Mingxuan immediately denied it. "Impossible. When did Chang'an leave?"
"???" Fu Lin was confused. "No, I have never seen the Queen."
"How did you know I was here, and when did you arrive?"
"Something happened in Shoukang Palace. The Empress sent a message to this subordinate, telling him that you are here and that he has just arrived."
"Walk!"
When Bei Mingxuan walked into Shoukang Palace, he had not yet reached the bedroom.
Just see it.
There were fallen arrows and the corpses of guards, palace maids, and eunuchs on the ground.
Bai Lu, holding a long sword, looked at the people in the room with an angry face, blood dripping from the blade.
Beside her was Fu Cheng, with a wary look on his face and a frown on his face.
Behind the two people was Chang'an, who was kneeling in front of the old empress dowager's bed.
"The emperor has arrived." Fu Lin quickly followed Bei Mingxuan in.
Everyone turned around and knelt on the ground, "Long live the emperor!"
Yes.
He strode quickly to Chang'an's side and held her in his arms, "It's okay, I'm here."
At this moment, her eyes moved, "I..."
"It's okay." Bei Mingxuan comforted, "Let's set up a mourning hall for Grandma Huang first."
"What do you mean nothing?" Xu Yitong shouted angrily, "It was after Gu Changan fed the Grand Empress Dowager the medicine that she vomited blood and died. She fed her with her own hands."
"Empress Dowager!" Bei Mingxuan didn't even turn his head and said in a cold voice, "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Suddenly, there was no sound in the room.
Only then did Bei Mingxuan take a look at the deceased old queen mother. She looked peaceful, but upon closer inspection, he could see traces of pain between her eyebrows.
a long time.
Chang'an's shoulders were trembling and her voice was not loud. She lowered her head and stroked her lower abdomen with one hand.
"The last thing Grandma Huang said was that she wanted to see her little great-grandson and hug him...
She was in so much pain and was in such pain, I couldn't bear it."
"So, you killed the Empress Dowager with your own hands?" Xu Mengyun said, "You are such a heartless and vicious person!"
Snap! Snap!
Two hard and loud slaps hit Xu Mengyun's face.
This, this is, hitting someone from a distance?
"Did you see that with your dog eyes?" At this moment, Chang'an was already full of hostility, and his red eyes met Xu Mengyun's gaze directly, as cold as ice.
The murderous aura emanating from his body frightened everyone.
"Gu Chang'an, do you still want to quibble?" Xu Yitong said through gritted teeth, ignoring the anger and warning in Bei Mingxuan's eyes. "Everyone in this bedroom saw it."
As he said this, he protected Xu Mengyun behind him.
"Gu Chang'an, Mengyun just said the truth that these servants dare not say. If you want to touch her, you have to step over my dead body."
Chang'an sneered, "Do you think that this emperor dares not?"
As he said this, he was about to walk towards Xu Yitong.
But no one expected that when Chang'an took the first step.
Bei Mingxuan was behind her and struck Chang'an on the back of the neck with a palm.
She turned back, her face full of disbelief and eyes full of pain...
She fainted in Bei Mingxuan's arms.
Bei Mingxuan ignored everyone, carefully picked up Chang'an, and temporarily placed her on the bed in the side hall.
Egret, guarded by Fu Cheng.
When Bei Mingxuan came back again.
He had a cold face and was filled with anger. At this moment, his imperial majesty made everyone unable to raise their heads.
"Where is the head of Shoukang Palace?"
"Your Majesty." A young eunuch knelt on the ground. "Madam, after learning that the Empress Dowager had passed away, she committed suicide for her master..."
"Martyr for the master?" Bei Mingxuan swept his cold eyes over everyone. He knew the head nanny, who was very loyal to the old empress dowager.
The old empress dowager likes Chang'an, and this nanny also likes Chang'an.
Just like the previous Master Li, although he was the prince's man, his loyalty to the empress dowager and his love for Chang'an were real.
"Yes." said the slave who was kneeling on the ground.
"After the Empress Dowager left, everyone couldn't find the head nanny, so they went to her room and found that she had hanged herself."
"You mean, the Empress Dowager hanged herself after she left?" Bei Mingxuan asked, but his eyes were on Xu Yitong and Xu Mengyun.
"yes."
Bei Mingxuan glanced at Fu Lin beside him.
Fu Lin remained calm and walked out.
Xu Mengyun felt guilty when Bei Mingxuan saw her, so she hid behind Xu Yitong and gently tugged at her clothes.
She whispered, "Aunt, what do you mean by this, cousin?"
Xu Yitong didn't say anything, just gave her a reassuring look and patted his hands gently.
"Let's prepare for the Empress Dowager's funeral." Bei Mingxuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, so he turned and left.
When Bei Mingxuan took Chang'an away.
Shoukang Palace was quickly surrounded by a group of guards.
"The Emperor has ordered that all those in Shoukang Palace be imprisoned and await trial."
As soon as the words came out, everyone was horrified, but no one dared to say no.
At this time, only Xu Yitong and Xu Mengyun were left in Shoukang Palace.
"What?" Xu Yitong looked at Fu Lin and said, "Master Fu, you want to take me too?"
"Empress Dowager, don't worry." Fu Lin said calmly, "The Emperor specifically instructed that the affairs after the Empress Dowager's death are of utmost importance. It would be unacceptable if the Empress Dowager were not around during this period.
But Miss Xu, I must take you away."
"Aunt, save me." Xu Mengyun grabbed Xu Yitong in panic, "My cousin only has Gu Changan in his heart and eyes right now. If...
Chang'an will definitely not let me go."
"Don't be afraid, auntie will find a way." Xu Yitong also knew at this time that she had no way of keeping Xu Mengyun.
After all, it was Fu Lin who came here personally to lead the group.
"Since everyone is a suspect, what about Gu Changan?" Xu Yitong tried to make things difficult for Fu Lin as much as possible.
Fu Lin said, "That is the emperor's business. I cannot interfere. Please come in, Miss Xu."
"Gu Changan, where are you now?" Xu Yitong asked again.
"I don't know." Fu Lin had lost his patience.
He waved to the people behind him, "Take it away."
Immediately, two people dragged Xu Mengyun away.
When Fu Lin took his men away.
The entire Shoukang Palace was unusually cold and deserted, and the Empress Dowager's body was still in her own bedroom.
Xu Yitong looked at the room and slowly walked in.
He walked to the old empress dowager's bed, knelt on the ground, tears in his eyes, "Xuan'er is an emperor... Emperors can be affectionate, but they cannot be loyal."
"Your servant greets the Queen Mother."
Xu Yitong wiped the tears from her face and walked out.
