Chapter 257

Ye Jingzhao just lay down.

There was only an oil lamp lit in the room on the low table next to the bed.

The candle flame flickered on and off.

In the dim room, there was an indescribable and depressing atmosphere.

"red dates……"

I heard the dull and frightening death knell coming from outside.

Ye Jingzhao suddenly sat up from the couch, opened the curtain, and shouted hurriedly towards the door of the room.

Hongzao heard the movement in the house and hurriedly put on a coat.

Just hurry in and take a look.

The oil lamp in her hand swayed violently along the way.

"Fourth Miss, it's the death knell, it's coming from the palace."

Hongzao quickly arrived at the bed and helped the fourth lady put on her shoes and socks.

Ye Jingzhao frowned slightly.

My heart skipped a beat.

"how come……"

I felt inexplicably uneasy.

When she walked out of the room, a maid came to announce, "Fourth Miss, the Master and Madam have asked you to come to the main courtyard to invite you. Fourth Miss, don't delay, come over quickly."

Ye Jingzhao nodded slightly and went to the main courtyard with the red dates.

Before entering the house, I saw my second brother coming.

"Second brother."

Ye Chen looked at his fourth sister, his face full of exhaustion.

But he still suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said, "Fourth sister, don't worry, it'll be fine."

The brother and sister have not yet entered the main courtyard.

Mr. Ye San and Mrs. Ye San, Mrs. Jiang, had already walked out in a hurry.

Mr. Ye San looked at a pair of children, his face full of sadness.

He sighed and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight. Someone will be coming to the palace soon."

Madam Ye San, Mrs. Jiang, also looked solemn, "Master, tell me, could it be..."

Ever since the death knell rang, Jiang felt uneasy.

It always feels like something big is about to happen.

The image of Concubine Jiang Shu flashed in her mind inexplicably.

After all, she was her biological sister from the same mother.

Although there is no place to grow up since childhood, the blood and family ties cannot be separated.

Mr. Ye San comforted his wife, "Madam, don't be anxious, you will know in a moment."

In fact, everyone knew what they were worried about.

A family of four was waiting in the main hall.

After two cups of tea, the palace eunuch who came to deliver the decree finally arrived.

The eunuch only asked everyone to enter the palace quickly.

The others refused to say more.

The three-bedroom Ye family and their family of four entered the palace hastily.

At the entrance of the palace, I saw the carriages of various families arriving.

Everyone was equally uneasy and didn't know what was going on in the palace.

I asked the inner prisoner who delivered the decree, but I didn't hear a satisfactory reply.

But the death knell has sounded, and the noble man in the palace has passed away.

I just don’t know which noble person it is.

Wait until you arrive outside Yangxin Hall.

All the ministers were kneeling outside the palace, and the eunuch Gong E had already put on a mourning dress.

The noble daughters of the female family were invited to the Queen's Palace, and the Crown Princess took care of them on their behalf.

Ye Jingzhen's face was full of haggard. She was already exhausted mentally and physically from dealing with all the ladies and ladies in the palace.

And now she is pregnant again, even though she has a palace maid to help her.

But she didn't dare to slack off even a little bit, after all, things were different now.

Ye Jingzhen hadn't seen her mother enter the palace yet, but she saw her third aunt and fourth sister first.

She could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Ye Jingzhao stepped forward, bowed, and then helped his eldest sister Ye Jingzhen.

Full of worry, she said, "Sister, look at how haggard you are, why don't you go and rest first, and leave it to the steward to take care of you."

"Eldest sister is pregnant again now."

Ye Jingzhen sighed helplessly and shook his head, his tone full of solemnity, "Fourth sister, how can I have time to rest now? I'm afraid I will be tired these days. I pity this child and suffer along with me."

Ye Jingzhen couldn't help but lower his head, and his hands unconsciously protected his abdomen.

The temperature in the palm of my hand seemed to be felt by the little person in my belly.

She could clearly feel the heartbeat of the small group of people.

My heart is extremely satisfied. Not long after, the Yangxin Hall was properly placed.

The female family members who entered the palace also changed into mourning clothes.

Only then did everyone suddenly realize.

It turned out that Concubine Jiang Shu had died. The emperor was shocked to hear the bad news and was not in good health to begin with.

When I heard the bad news, I couldn't get over it for a while.

He also followed.

Ye Jingzhao felt huge waves in his heart.

First, there is still no way to change the fate of the emperor.

But Concubine Jiang Shu was quite surprising.

Her heart was filled with melancholy and indescribable feelings.

pity.

After all, there is no way to change everything.

Although a large number of people were kneeling outside the Yangxin Hall, it was extremely quiet.

In the dark night, palace people were busy going back and forth.

Mrs. Jiang is also here today.

Upon hearing the bad news, Mrs. Jiang fainted.

Everyone was busy again.

Ye Jingzhao and his mother stayed with his grandmother, Mrs. Jiang.

Just waiting for people to wake up.

Mrs. Jiang struggled to get up, her eyes filled with tears, "My son... asked me to take a last look at her..."

Everyone cried when they heard this.

But I don’t know how to advise.

Mrs. Ye San, Mrs. Jiang, held her mother's hand and coaxed softly, "Mom, after the funeral ceremony of His Majesty is over, I will accompany my mother to see my second sister."

Mrs. Jiang held Yaonv's hand tightly.

Now she has only one daughter left.

At the end of the day, she was told that the white-haired person gave her to the black-haired person.

No matter how painful it is.

Right now, as Yaonv said, His Majesty's funeral ceremony is the most important thing.

Ye Jingzhao accompanied his eldest sister Ye Jingzhen.

From time to time, he helped her with some trivial matters within his power.

Along the way, I can also let my eldest sister sit down and rest for a while.

Although the Queen felt sorry for the pregnant Crown Princess.

But now the palace is in chaos.

The imperial doctor could only be ordered to keep a close eye on the princess's movements.

It was the only thing she could do.

The palace is in chaos right now.

The prince had to deal with a trivial matter from time to time.

Although he felt sorry for his pregnant wife, he really couldn't get away from her at the moment.

The emperor left in a hurry without saying anything.

Previously the prince supervised the country.

Although everything can be handled properly.

It can be added that two noble people in the palace died.

After all, he was still caught off guard, and he had to deal with everything forcefully.

In the month after the emperor's death, a group of ministers were preparing for the prince's enthronement.

Concubine Jiang Shu was buried at the same time as the emperor.

The second prince in the prison was now an existence that no one cared about.

Mrs. Jiang has aged much overnight.

People’s energy and spirit are also different from the past.

The new emperor ascended the throne with his new queen, and the former emperor Jiang Shufei was posthumously named Concubine Jiang.

The mausoleum is arranged according to the standards of a noble concubine.

Waiting for the burial of the late emperor.

For a moment, Kyoto finally became a little quieter.

The busy family can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Ye San, Mrs. Jiang, held the hand of her daughter Ye Jingzhao.

His tone was full of regret, "It's a national mourning now, and marriages have to be suspended for a year..."

"My mother is fine, and Sister Lin's family won't care about this."

Ye Jingzhao comforted his mother.

After all, this is a state matter.

"In two days, mother is going to stay with the Jiang family for a while to stay with your grandmother. You are older now. You should learn to take care of things at home first."
