In the 27th year of Ranwei, on the night of February 23, Empress Dowager Liu passed away. 【】

The bells of the Six Palaces rang throughout the entire palace, and the entire Ranwei Palace was filled with sorrow, the palace spirit banners floated, the emperor Ran Qingcheng knelt in front of the coffin, and the Empress Liu who was in the coffin with a dull expression. He couldn't accept it, and still remembered the horrible death image of his mother's corpse when he saw it.

Ran Qingcheng was dressed in filial piety, his face was covered with sorrow, and his expression was as cold as the frost of ten thousand years.

Kneeling at the side, Prince Ran Qingze, who looked sad, rushed to the palace to offer his condolences after hearing the news; and the little princess, Ran Bixuan, knelt at the side.I have been crying for a long time, like a tearful person.

Military officials came to pay homage to Queen Mother Liu, and Nangong Yifan accompanied his father Nangong Wei to pay homage.Nangong Yifan felt sorry for Xuan'er who was crying sadly and her eyes were red and swollen.

Nangong Wei came to the emperor who was in deep grief, and walked in front of the emperor, with a solemn expression and an old and deep voice: "Your Majesty, we must mourn and obey!"

At this time, Murong Feixue was dressed in filial piety, accompanied by Lin Ke'er, and came to Fengqi Palace to pay homage.

When Emperor Ran Qingcheng saw Murong Feixue coming, his mournful face became even more horrifying. He stood up quickly and roared furiously at Murong Feixue.

"Queen, what are you doing here? Do you know that you are not allowed to come here if you are pregnant. Come and take the queen back to the bedroom."

Murong Feixue hadn't seen Ran Qingcheng so violent for a long time, Murong Feixue knelt down on the ground as if she was wronged.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Feixue is the daughter-in-law of the empress, and when the empress passes away, Feixue must send the empress a ride, even if it is a scent of fragrance!"

Ran Qingcheng realized that his voice was indeed a bit loud, and he really couldn't accept the sudden death of Empress Dowager Liu.As a daughter-in-law, it is only natural for Fei Xue to come here, and it is reasonable.It is taboo for pregnant women to participate in funerals, and they will be happy.His mother died absurdly, and he didn't want Feixue and the child in her belly to be hurt.

Helping Murong Feixue up from the ground, "Empress, let's go back to the palace! You are pregnant, and the empress knows that you have such filial piety, and your spirit in heaven will rest in peace."

When the little princess Ran Bixuan saw Murong Feixue, she still couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes. She stood up and walked over, "Sister-in-law Huang, you are pregnant, you should go back to the palace! The queen mother knows the filial piety of sister-in-law Huang, so she will definitely not blame her." of."

Although the chain king Ran Qingze didn't show any signs on his face, he was already terrified. The child in Murong Feixue's womb was his.

Nan Gongwei at the side learned that Empress Dowager Liu passed away suddenly, and already guessed that it was Empress Murong Feixue who killed her. Two days ago, the Empress Dowager told Nan Gongwei that the Empress wanted to force her to death.

When Murong Feixue cruelly forced her mother-in-law to death, and now she acted like a filial son and a virtuous daughter-in-law, this girl was not simple, but the emperor was kept in the dark, which showed the emperor's obsession with that girl.

"Come on, Empress Dowager Liu's scruples are not unreasonable, she must not let this woman mess up Ran Wei's world."

Since Empress Dowager Liu passed away, Murong Feixue also increased the dosage of Wushi powder in Ran Qingcheng's diet, and the emperor Ran Qingcheng's spirit became more and more depressed, and his temper became more and more irritable.

The king of Lian was seized by the emperor when he returned from Jizhou. The emperor was wary of him. Murong Feixue and Ran Qingze, the king of chains, tried to get rid of Nan Gongwei, the most loyal minister of Ran Wei, and weaken the emperor's power. The emperor is not benevolent. Harm Zhongliang will lose the hearts of the people, only after Lian Wang Ran Qingze seized power can he win the hearts of the people.

So Murong Feixue bewitched him from the sidelines to build a luxurious mausoleum for Queen Mother Liu.Just after the first seven days of Empress Dowager Liu, Ran Qingcheng decided to build a mausoleum for her mother to show her filial piety.

Ran Qingcheng sat on the dragon seat, and Empress Murong Feixue sat beside her.Ran Qingcheng went to all the ministers in the main hall and ordered people to read out the imperial edict he had prepared.

After hearing the edict read out by the eunuch, all the ministers looked at each other in dismay, and at the same time looked at the most dignified general Nangong Wei.

Nan Gongwei saw Murong Feixue, a woman, openly participating in courtiers' discussions today, and was not very satisfied with the emperor's actions.In addition, Empress Dowager Liu was not chaste and unclean, and the palace was disloyal to the late emperor, so it was already a great honor for her to be buried in the late emperor's mausoleum.The emperor also wanted to build a mausoleum for Empress Dowager Liu that did not conform to the ancestral system, which made Nangong Weixin even more annoyed.

Ran Qingcheng exuded majesty, looked coldly at the expressions of the ministers, each of them dared not speak out, knowing that they did not agree with his opinion, "My loves, do you have any objections! If you object, you will leave the court!"

The emperor's temper has been volatile recently, and he didn't dare to come out to seek death.Nangong Wei took a step forward, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I, Ran Wei, is just a small country. Years of wars have left the treasury empty, so it is not easy to waste people and waste money and make large-scale construction projects. Moreover, the expansion of the Empress Dowager's Mausoleum is not in line with the ancestral system. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"

Emperor Ran Qingcheng's stern pupils were gloomy, and he cast a cold glance at Nan Gongwei, who spoke bluntly.

Murong Feixue at the side saw Emperor Ran Qingcheng's expression, and smiled, "Your Majesty, the emptiness of the national treasury can increase taxes, and the country of Ran Wei and the people of Ran Wei belong to His Majesty."

Nangong Wei was upright, and when he heard Murong Feixue's bewitching words, the queen mother was right, this girl would be a cholera seductress.

Nangong Wei said awe-inspiringly: "This is the place where the courtiers discuss matters. How can a woman come to interfere with the government affairs. The queen's move is suspected of being a rooster!"

Murong Feixue did this on purpose, knowing that she had found an opportunity, her face immediately became sad, her eyes filled with tears.

"Old General, why do you slander me so much? No matter how filial I am, I am really wronged!"

"It's unreasonable to defy the empress openly! The old general Nian will not be held accountable. As for the matter of building the mausoleum for the empress, I have made up my mind."

Nangong Wei has the same scruples as Empress Dowager Liu, that is, the twins in Murong Feixue's womb. If it wasn't for the concern about the royal blood, if it wasn't for protecting the life of the little princess, the matter of Murong Feixue's forced death of the Queen Mother would definitely be made public. to the public.

"Your Majesty, please listen to the old minister's blunt words, don't believe the bewitching words of this temptress. Such a waste of people and money must never be done!"

Murong Feixue raised her tearful eyes, "Your Majesty, my concubine has been wronged!"

Seeing that Nangongwei was still stubborn, Ran Qingcheng even insulted the queen as a seductress, "It's unreasonable, come here to remove Nangongwei's court clothes and break into the prison."

General Nan Gongwei was sent to prison for disobeying the emperor and insulting the empress.Nangong Wei's youngest son, Nangong Yifan, learned that his father insulted Feixue, and in his impression, Murong Feixue was definitely not a bad person, so how could his father insult her.

After paying off the jailer to visit the prison, he found out that Empress Dowager Liu was forced to death by Murong Feixue.Unexpectedly, Murong Feixue was a completely different person.

Nangong Yifan went to see Murong Feixue, wanting to have a good talk with her.Murong Feixue knew that Nangong Yifan would come to her, and she was ready.

Seeing Nangong Yifan approaching, he turned away the other maidservants, leaving only Lin Ke'er by his side to take care of him.

"Meet the empress!"

"Commander Nangong doesn't need to be too polite, I know your reason for coming, it must be because of your father's affairs!"

Nangong Yifan got up and stood up in a heroic manner, "Nangong Yifan came here for only two things. Why did your mother send my father back to prison, and why did Xuan'er treat you so well, and you actually returned her mother's mother?"

Murong Feixue stood up and walked to Nangong Yifan's side. He was not afraid that Nangong Yifan would hurt her, but gave him a signal of trust.

"Commander Nangong, you have never thought that if Xuan'er's life experience is known, her life will be in danger. I have forced my mother to death, and I have no face to meet Xuan'er."

Nangong Yifan's guilty expression towards Xuan'er on Murong Feixue's face was not fake. Thinking about her being hunted down by the Queen Mother, what she did today was just revenge for herself.

"Don't worry, I will help you hide it. I don't want Xuan'er to be sad. As for my father, I hope that the empress will let my father go home for the sake of Nangong Yifan who saved the empress."

Murong Feixue took a deep breath, "Commander Nangong, to tell you the truth, King Lian is about to launch a coup d'etat, and King Jin is about to return the court. I don't want to see your father and son turn against each other, and they are also protecting old General Nangong in a disguised form." .
