Chapter 26 Funeral

Those who didn’t know would think that the emperor and the empress were going to be buried.

After all, Zhen Fangyi’s face was really ugly.

After the emperor called her, she didn’t even look at the emperor, and pulled Concubine Su out of the emperor’s arms: "Tell me clearly, who hates you? Although you and I entered the palace on the same day, I had never seen you before. After entering the palace, except for the day when Empress Jiang Zhaoyi blamed you for blocking the road and beat you, I said a few words to you at close range when I passed by, when have you ever crossed paths? I would have killed my favorite to scare you?"

Even when she went to the Yikun Palace to pay respects every day, she was with Concubine De and Concubine Liang, and never with Concubine Su.

How did she offend her to the point that she said the word "hate".

Concubine Su frequently looked to the emperor for help, but the emperor only looked at Zhen Fangyi who looked like an angry bird, and didn't even give her an extra look.

She had to bite the bullet and said, "If Empress Fangyi didn't hate me for being favored on the day you moved to the palace, why did you invite Empress Defei to eat barbecue that day, but ignored me who was in the same palace with Empress Defei? When Jiang Zhaoyi beat me that day, why did you stand by and watch without saving me?"

Jiang Xinyue was so angry that she laughed. It turned out that there really was someone like Concubine Su in the world.

It was as if she was the center of the world, and everyone had to revolve around her. If you didn't help her, you hated her; if you didn't play with her, you hated her; if you didn't do what she wanted, you were jealous and hated her.

Isn't this just sick?

Not only did she laugh out of anger, but even the queen was puzzled: "You just rely on your own imagination to maliciously speculate about Zhen Fangyi. You don't have any actual evidence and you are trying to accuse the concubines who are higher than you. Do you know that you are violating the palace rules and will be punished by a stick?"

Concubine Su was stunned, her eyes dodging: "My concubine... My concubine only has a reasonable guess, and I don't intend to identify Lady Zhen Fangyi. Please, Her Majesty, don't hold it against me for the sake of my fright."

You see, even if she is called stupid, she still knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

The body of Xiao Aijiang was covered with a white cloth. Jiang Xinyue reached out to uncover it, but was stopped by Emperor Xuanwu: "Don't look."

Everyone in Hexi Palace liked Xiao Aijiang very much. If they saw its tragic scene of being gouged out and its heart cut out, they would inevitably be sad again.

Jiang Xinyue glanced at the emperor, broke free from his hand, and slowly pulled down the white cloth.

"Ah!"

Seeing that Xiao Aijiang's fur was stained with blood, and that his chest and stomach were cut open, with the internal organs falling out, Xi Que covered her mouth and screamed in fear.

She was so embarrassed that she knelt on the ground: "I deserve to die, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuanwu didn't care and thought it was excusable.

The palace people in Hexi Palace raised Xiao Aijiang as a child, which is why he has such a friendly personality.

It is hard for anyone to accept seeing their "child" die miserably all of a sudden. Zhen Fangyi and her maids were very restrained.

"I told you not to look."

A big hand suddenly appeared on her sour eyes, blocking all her sight.

The familiar ambergris enveloped Jiang Xinyue from behind. She was furious that someone would treat a puppy so cruelly.

It turned out that incompetent people could only vent their hatred for her on weaker lives.

Such a disgusting person should be found out and killed by the puppy.

Her long eyelashes swept across the palm of Emperor Xuanwu's hand. There seemed to be warm liquid flowing in her eye sockets, and the heat sprayed on her palm, burning his heart and making it tight.

It was hard to tell whether he felt distressed or something else. He turned Jiang Xinyue around, and before anyone could see her red eyes, he held her under his armpits and walked out with his cloak over her: "Wang Dequan, take little Ai Jiang back to Hexi Palace for burial."

At the door, the third prince stuffed the candy in his hand into Jiang Xinyue's hands: "Empress Jiang, don't be sad. When Xuan'er recovers, I will go to see you with my elder sister and second sister."

Jiang Xinyue rubbed his head, showing a smile that was uglier than crying, and was taken away by the emperor without saying a word.

After the emperor left, Empress Zhu had no interest in staying, and she got on the sedan chair and left with the help of many people.

Concubine Su's legs went limp and she fell to the ground. She was the one who was most frightened in this incident, but the emperor only cared about Zhen Fangyi. The empress didn't even investigate and accused her of blaming Zhen Fangyi...

Why was her life so miserable? Why

didn't anyone believe her?

The sad cries rang out. Concubine De shook her head and ordered the palace servants: "Go and clean up the bloodstains at Concubine Su's door, and then ask the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription for her to calm her nerves."

Emperor Xuanwu said that he wanted to bury Xiao Aijiang, and Wang Dequan didn't dare to neglect it. The small coffin made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs was filled with the puppy's body wrapped in white cloth.

Changxin Palace -

Concubine Li was wearing thin clothes, a bandana on her forehead, and looked sickly. She lay crooked on the Concubine's couch: "You mean, someone killed Zhen Fangyi's dog and hung it at Concubine Su's door. Now the emperor wants to hold a funeral for Zhen Fangyi's dog, and all the palaces are required to go to pay their respects?"

Layue was beaten with fifty sticks and was still resting in her room. But even if she recovered, she would not be able to serve Concubine Li.

If Concubine Li still used someone the emperor disliked, it would be a slap in the emperor's face. No matter how much the emperor loved her, she would not dare to go against the emperor openly.

Now the head maid of Changxin Palace is Chunhe, who was promoted from the second-class maid.

She bowed her head and said, "Yes, the Empress, Consort De, Consort Liang, Jiang Zhaoyi, Wan Guiyi, Jin Chongyi, Consort Rong, Consort Rong, and the ladies of each palace have all gone." Who dares not to obey

the emperor's order?

Consort Li sighed heavily, "The emperor also allowed her to make a fuss. If the Empress Dowager was in charge of the palace, it would not be like this. Such a big fuss for a dog, in the end it is still the Empress's incompetence."

She was still angry with the emperor. The emperor did not come to coax her, and was still flirting with Zhen Fangyi. Did he want her to bow her head first?

If so, she would be inferior to Zhen Fangyi in the future.

She was unwilling.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. I have already replied for you. The Queen Mother also told you to take good care of yourself and not to go."

"Well done."

Concubine Li rubbed her temples, and Chun He immediately understood and stepped forward to rub her.

This was the first time that Hexi Palace had been so lively since the palace gates were opened.

The courtyard was filled with beautiful women, some plump and some thin, wearing red and green, trying their best to attract the attention of Emperor Xuanwu.

But it was their rich and luxurious attire that made Jiang Xinyue, wearing a white cheongsam embroidered with epiphyllums, look elegant and graceful.

With her fragile and beautiful face,

she looked even more fragile. Jiang Xinyue's beautiful eyes moved around, and her expression became more and more pitiful.
