Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 1038 Burning paper money

Burning paper?

Liu Yunxiang was a little confused at first, so he ran to the door of the main room to look, and saw Concubine Li dressed in white. There was a brazier in front of her, with a fire burning in the brazier, and she was putting paper money one by one inside.

Not paper, but paper money.

At midnight, all the lights in the palace were turned off, and in the darkness, the fire only illuminated Concubine Li's face.It was a pale and stern face, especially when the fire exploded, the face became more clear, making people couldn't help but send chills down their spines.

The fire flickered like a ghost.

"Ling'er, today is your memorial day, and my concubine has come to burn paper for you. You must still be here. I miss you so much. Let me take a look at you, okay?"

The sound was blown away by the wind, drifting and sad.

"Ling'er, the person who harmed you is still alive and well. My mother-in-law is of no use, but my mother-in-law promises you that she will not let her have an easy time."

At this time, there was movement behind him. Liu Yunxiang turned around and saw Liang Yu coming out. Seeing the situation in the courtyard, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"I didn't harm him...no...why don't you believe me..."

Liu Yunxiang wanted to help Liang Yu up, but she would lie on the ground, saying over and over again that she had not harmed Concubine Li's son.Her eyes were straight, and she looked a little crazy.

Liu Yunxiang frowned. Liang Yu already felt guilty for the death of Concubine Li's son. In addition, the mahogany box had been placed in her bedroom, torturing her day and night, and her spirit was already on the verge of collapse.

Unable to help Liang Yu, Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to take care of her. She walked down the steps and walked to Concubine Li.

"Concubine Li, do you really think that the little prince was killed by the empress?"

Hearing this, Concubine Li paused as she put the paper money into the brazier, then slowly raised her head to look at Liu Yunxiang, her eyes were cold, as if she wanted to kill her.

"No matter how stupid the Queen is, she will not leave the little prince's body in her bedroom and wait for the guards to find it after she harms him again, right?"

Seeing that Concubine Li was still staring at her, Liu Yunxiang sighed and said: "I don't believe that Concubine Li has no suspicion at all. You just can't see through those suspicions, so you still believe that the murderer is the Queen. But if the real murderer is indeed Others, she not only killed the little prince, but also used your hand to suppress the queen, wouldn't you become the real murderer's assistant?"

"Who do you want to say?" Concubine Li asked coldly.

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I don't know."

Concubine Li's pupils shrank, and there was murderous intent on her face towards the palace maid in front of her.

"But Concubine Li might as well think about it. The real murderer killed your son and suppressed the queen, which is equivalent to killing two birds with one stone. Then she should be the beneficiary of this palace, right?"

Concubine Li thought of something at this time. She raised her head and looked in the direction of Liang Yu, looking at her belly.

"The child in the queen's belly is definitely a threat to her. She will try to get rid of the child without exposing herself, so she will borrow it from others. As for whose child it is, you already have it here."

Listening to this, Concubine Li suddenly thought of that day at the waterside pavilion. When Concubine Xian mentioned the 'White Tiger Reincarnation', she thought of her own son, so her rationality collapsed and she pushed the Queen into the lake.

Seeing Concubine Li like this, Liu Yunxiang had obviously thought of what happened that day, so he nodded again: "Concubine Li, why are you so excited when you hear 'White Tiger Reincarnation', but someone said that the little prince is also the reincarnation of White Tiger? Who else knows about this besides you?"

Concubine Li suddenly raised her head, "You doubt..."

"Slaves don't know anything."

Liu Yunxiang knelt down, picked up a piece of paper money and put it into the brazier. Seeing her magnanimity, Concubine Li frowned and said, "You are definitely not an ordinary palace maid. Who are you?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "I have no grievances with the imperial concubine, and I will not harm your people. Just like the queen, she must have her own motives for killing the young prince, right? She had just entered the palace at that time, and she didn't even have a firm footing. , why bother yourself with so much trouble."

After saying this, Liu Yunxiang stood up, stepped up the steps, and helped Liang Yu into the house with Zijin.There was the box in the west room, so Liu Yunxiang asked Liang Yu to live in the east room first.

"No, the emperor has ordered that I share a room with that mahogany box."

Liu Yunxiang frowned. This emperor was not a thing. If he really wanted to avenge his son, he could find out the truth first instead of being confused and letting Liang Yu take the blame.He just carried it on his back and tortured her like this.

"There are only three of us in the main house. How can others know who is in which house?"

Liang Yu was trembling all over and her spirit was extremely tense. If she stayed in the west room again, she would probably be tortured crazy.

They were placed in the east room, and she and Zijin stayed to keep vigil.

After Liang Yu lay down and closed her eyes, Liu Yunxiang walked to the window, opened a gap and looked out, and saw that Concubine Li was still burning paper, one after another.

After one basket is burned, her maid will send another basket. It is not known how long it will take to burn.

The next morning, Liu Yunxiang came out of the main room and saw only a pile of ashes left under the steps.She took a broom and tried to sweep away the ashes, but then she saw a few drops of blood on the ground.

She let out a long sigh. The pain of losing a child was enough to kill a mother, over and over again.

After two days of this, Liang Yu just lay down to take a nap in the afternoon when the maid next to Concubine Xian hurried over.

"The Queen, the Concubine Xian asked my servant to secretly tell you that the Sixth Princess was just playing in the Royal Garden. For some reason, she climbed up the rockery and fell down from the rockery!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Yu sat up suddenly.

"How is the sixth princess? Where is she now?"

"In Qiuhua Palace."

Qiuhua Palace is the dormitory of the wise concubine. Liang Yu stood up and rushed out without even standing firm. Fortunately, Liu Yunxiang and Zijin hurriedly stopped her.

Liu Yunxiang helped Liang Yu put on her outer clothes, and Zijin asked the palace maid, "What happened to the Sixth Princess?"

"There was a lot of blood on my forehead. I asked the imperial doctor and the emperor also came over."

Hearing this, Liang Yu became even more panicked.Fortunately, Liu Yunxiang helped Liang Yu put on her outer clothes at this time, and then helped her out.

"Eight girls, don't panic. I've seen the rockery in the Imperial Garden. It's not very high. The sixth princess won't be too seriously injured."

"It's useless for me. I can't protect this child."

"The matter is still unclear. Miss Eight needs to be steady and don't fall into other people's traps."

Along the way, Liu Yunxiang kept urging Liang Yu.When they came to Qiuhua Palace, the emperor, Concubine Xian and Concubine Li were all there. When Liang Yu saw the palace maid coming out with a basin of blood, she immediately couldn't hold back and burst into tears.

"Qianqian! Qianqian!"

Liang Yu was about to go in, but Concubine Xian stepped forward to stop her.

"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor is treating the little princess. It's a mess inside. You can go in later."

"My daughter, she is only three years old, how could she climb up the rockery?" Liang Yu stamped her feet anxiously, "The people taking care of her are all careless!"

As she said this, she looked at Concubine Li again, and saw Concubine Li standing there with a cold look on her face. She couldn't hold back any longer, pointed at her and said, "It's you, you must have hurt my Qianqian!"
