Chapter 441 The Same Concern
Upon hearing the news of Zhaohua's death, Li Changzai burst into tears.
When the emperor's men dragged her away, she struggled hard for a few times, then became so excited that she fainted and lost consciousness.
Concubine Yun, on the other hand, was unusually calm, so calm that it seemed as if her soul had been emptied out, leaving only a walking corpse.
There was no expression on her face, and she was being held captive by palace guards as she walked out of the door.
But when he saw Zhao Hua's back, about to step out of Chaoyang Palace not far ahead, he suddenly shouted:
"Song Zhao! Go tell the emperor that although I am his concubine, I am also a living person! I lost my mother when I was young and depended on my father for my life. Xiao Jingheng has gone too far. Even if I die, I will not let him go!"
Yun Fei's screams became more and more shrill, and finally turned into a blood-curdling roar.
"Don't think he can get rid of me just because I die! I will haunt him forever and make him lose face in front of all the people in the world! Hahahaha~"
Yun Fei's laughter is as creepy as a night owl.
But Zhao Hua was not moved at all.
She didn't even stop for a second because of Concubine Yun's screams and howls, but got on the phoenix sedan chair without making a sound.
Zhao Hua had no idea how many times he had heard Yun Fei's cries before her death, venting her emotions.
She never took these words to heart.
after all,
If ghosts and gods really existed in this world, then there would be countless people who wanted to take Xiao Jingheng's life. No matter how they were ranked, it would not be Concubine Yun's turn to claim his life.
After leaving Chaoyang Palace, Zhaohua and Rongyue took their own sedan chairs, walking one after the other.
Ru Ge followed at a distance behind.
Later, as they walked further, the palace servants who were serving Rong Yue and carrying her sedan chair quickened their pace.
Soon he caught up with Zhaohua and were almost walking side by side with him.
Zhao Hua glanced at Rong Yue from the corner of his eye. Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant, he whispered:
"Caiying has been taken out of the Ministry of Punishment. She suffered some pain, but the imperial physician has been sent to treat her. Don't worry, sister. She is safe."
Hearing this, Rong Yue said with a guilty and lonely look:
"Zhao'er, this time...thank you so much."
Zhao Hua shook her head lightly, "There is no need for such polite words between my sister and me. It's just that...my sister is a little too foolish this time. You shouldn't have brought such a thing that could cause trouble to you into the palace. Even if you did bring it into the palace, you shouldn't have dealt with it so carelessly. It gave people a handle on you."
She was silent for a moment, frowned and said, "Sister has never been such a careless person, what happened this time?"
Rong Yue lowered her eyes and whispered in self-blame, "I was on guard every day, but I was in a bad mood that day, and somehow I caused such a big mess. It was also my stupidity."
As she spoke, Rong Yue pretended to look back casually and glanced at Ru Ge who was following them from a distance.
Then he lowered his voice and asked Zhaohua, "But what I'm wondering is, that precious person..."
Zhao Hua looked at her and said firmly, "She and my sister have the same idea."
In fact, when Rong Yue saw Ru Ge taking out the love knot that she had personally given to Xiao Jingyan in front of the emperor just now, she had already guessed this.
But now she was still surprised to hear such words from Zhaohua.
"Then how did Zhao Er convince her to say those words in front of the emperor?"
Zhao Hua smiled in an unclear way and shook his head, "I don't have that ability. All of this was her own idea."
She straightened her expression, looked straight at the broad road ahead, and said slowly:
"Today, when I saw my sister follow Xiao Yinzi, I felt something was not right, so I asked Xiao Fuzi to go to the imperial court and let Xiao Yinzi find out what happened. Later, Xiao Fuzi came back and told me that it was the knot that caused the trouble. Fortunately, half of the tattoo was burned and nothing could be seen.
Xiao Yinzi and Xiao Fuzi described the style of the burnt love knot. I remembered that my sister also gave me a love knot several years ago, which sounded very similar to that style.
I thought, maybe I can take the heart knot to the emperor and say that I found it from my sister's palace. My sister will understand what I mean and will follow my words and say that you embroidered this heart knot for me and the emperor, which means the emperor and empress are of one mind. "
Rong Yue's pretty eyebrows slightly frowned, and she couldn't help but shook her head and said:
"Empress Yun is so scheming that she even knows how old the yellowed silk is. If Zhao'er really does this, it will be bad."
Zhao Hua said: "The situation was urgent at that time. I thought of this hidden danger, and I could only use this method to help my sister out of trouble. Just when I was about to go to the imperial court, Xiao Fuzi mentioned another thing to me.
He said that the emperor had originally summoned Gui Zhen to serve as a scribe in Chaoyang Palace after court, and Gui Zhen left on time, while the emperor was talking to Concubine Yun inside, so whatever Xiao Yinzi heard later, Gui Zhen also heard.
Xiao Yinzi said that after hearing this, Zhenguiren couldn't even walk steadily and ran back to the palace in a daze.
I felt something was strange at the time, so I took a detour to Zhuixia Palace first, and on the way, I ran into Guirui. When she saw me, she took out the heart knot from her bosom and explained to me the same words she had just explained in front of the emperor.
She is also a smart person, but why is the sachet in her possession? Is it Prince An or her sister that she wants to protect? Her sister needs to explain it to her clearly. "
Rong Yue thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
After a while, the phoenix sedan stopped at the gate of Zhuixia Palace, and Zhaohua raised his voice and said to Rongyue:
"Shun Fei, I wronged you today, but don't take it to heart."
Rong Yue got off the sedan chair and stood in front of Zhao Hua's sedan chair, bowing to her respectfully.
"Thank you, Queen, for clearing my name today."
"I just told the truth to His Majesty according to what the precious person said. Concubine Yun and Li Changqi were not upright in their hearts, and it is their retribution that they have ended up in such a situation."
As he was talking, Ru Ge hurried over to catch up.
Zhao Hua raised her hand slightly and said calmly: "You guys take a good rest, I will go back first."
Rong Yue and Ru Ge knelt down together and said respectfully to the back of the phoenix sedan:
"Your Highness the Queen is sent off respectfully."
After seeing Zhaohua off, the two of them entered Zhuixia Palace one after the other.
They were supposed to go their separate ways in the courtyard and return to the palace, but Rong Yue suddenly called out to Ru Ge.
"Can precious people be free?"
Ru Ge was stunned. She looked back but didn't dare to look Rong Yue in the eye. She just lowered her eyes and nodded in agreement.
Rong Yue said: "Then come and sit in my palace."
After entering the main hall, Rong Yue sat down in the warm seat first. Seeing Ru Ge standing aside cautiously, he said:
"Sit down. You and I will live in the same palace. We still have a long time to get along in the palace. It's tiring to always follow the rules. From now on, I will call you Ru Ge. Do you mind?"
Ru Ge didn't answer or deny, as if she didn't hear what was said.
Rong Yue did not force her, and said to herself: "Thank you for helping me out today."
After hearing her words, Ruge slowly raised her head.
I took a deep breath and mustered up my courage to say,
"Your Highness is a smart person, so you should know that it is not you whom I want to save..."
