Biography of Yang Fei

Chapter 7
Yang Yu was thinking about it, but Qiu Chan was very vigilant, and said: "Jiuhua Palace is flooded, everyone in the harem will definitely rush to show their concern, and the beauty should change her clothes quickly, so as not to be talked about!" Yang Yu awakened the dreamer. Quickly freshen up and rush to Jiuhua Hall.

Outside the Jiuhua Palace, the emperor was consoling the newly rescued Mrs. Wang Zhaorong and the second prince. Wang Zhaorong seemed to have been greatly frightened, trembling all over, holding the prince tightly with both hands, and kept yelling: "Don't kill me, Don't kill me!" The emperor felt pity in his heart, and said softly, "My dear concubine, don't panic, with me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything!" Na Zhaorong suddenly knelt down: "Your Majesty, I beg you to save my concubine. Someone is trying to harm my concubine!" "What does Aifei say?"

That Zhaorong said bitterly: "This fire comes from the side hall. There is nothing to burn in the side hall of my concubine. Someone must have set the fire on purpose!" "Oh, if that's the case, what happened! Give me a thorough investigation! Pass it on to the Yulin Army!" Seeing the emperor's anger, everyone fell silent like a cicada.

After a while, a commander of the Habayashi Army came leading his troops, and it was the commander Guo Zichao.The emperor asked: "Did you find anything when you were fighting the fire?" "My majesty, I found a fire pocket at the place where the fire broke out. From what I can see, someone should have deliberately set the fire." The emperor was furious, "There are such madmen, how dare you So arrogant, I will definitely capture him!"

Concubine Tai and Concubine Guo Shu hurried over after hearing the news, and met Yang Yu and his party on the way.The concubine was quite concerned about Yang Yu, and said: "Yu'er, don't worry, there is a mourning family!" "Sister, it's really bad luck, why did this happen?" Yu still saw the smile in her eyes, but it was inconvenient to show it in front of the concubine.

Everyone rushed to the Jiuhua Palace and saw Zhaorong crying in the emperor's arms. The second prince seemed to be terrified, but he was stunned and didn't say a word. , Rongyi, go and pack the second prince's clothes, and go to Ai's house tonight, poor child, don't be frightened."

When Wang Zhaorong saw Yang Yu, she smiled apologetically, "Sister, today is a good day for my sister. I am so upset by my sister. Alas, my sister is really sorry!" , Mother Zhaorong's mother and child are safe, so what's the matter with the younger sister!" Seeing what Yang Yu said, the emperor smiled approvingly, and said, "Miss Yang is well educated and respectful, so don't worry about my beloved concubine."

Concubine Guo Shu was at the side, disapproving, and said: "Sister Zhaorong is so careless, it is a big deal to go into the water, the fire and candles in the palace must be taken care of, how can such a big thing happen!" Aggrieved and weeping, the emperor showed displeasure, "Concubine Guo Ai doesn't know the reason, so don't talk nonsense!" Concubine Guo Shu was shocked, the emperor was rarely so strict, so she stopped talking.

The concubine frowned, and asked: "What's going on?" "Concubine Mother, the Habayashi Army has confirmed that someone deliberately set the fire!" "Really?" The concubine looked at Guo Zichao, and Guo Zichao said respectfully: "That's right. !" Yang Yu saw that it was the guard who sent her back to Changle Palace last time, so she couldn't help but look a few more times, but accidentally met Guo Zichao's eyes!Yang Yu hurriedly looked away, but felt a little throbbing in her heart.Guo Zichao was even more shocked, and hurriedly lowered his head.

The concubine was furious, "The harem is becoming more and more inappropriate now. If such a thing happens, if it spreads out, there will be no shame for the mourning family! This matter must be thoroughly investigated, and the truth must come to light!" Do what you can, investigate this matter thoroughly!"

Everyone was silent, and Wang Zhaorong's personal maid Qianyun suddenly knelt down: "Qianyun has something suspicious, I don't know if I should say it or not?" The emperor was surprised: "What is it, but it doesn't matter!" When Yun was preparing cakes and tea for the prince at dusk, he saw a sneaky figure outside the side hall, it seemed, it seemed to be Ye Baolin's court lady Shui'er!" Everyone was surprised when he said this.

The concubine asked: "Have you ever seen it clearly?" Qianyun hurriedly said: "The other day Qianyun accompanied Lady Zhaorong to the concubine's place to ask questions. She had seen Shui'er before, so Qianyun should not admit her mistake!" This Shui'er seems to have stayed in Concubine Guo Shu's palace since Ye Baolin's death?" Mrs. Han said softly, and everyone looked at Concubine Guo Shu in unison, and Concubine Guo Shu's face changed, "Yes, I see Shui'er in this palace. She was quite sensible and dared to expose Ye Baolin's evil deeds, so she was accepted as a servant girl in his own palace."

The concubine looked at Concubine Guo Shu meaningfully: "Concubine Shu, how do you explain this matter?" Concubine Guo Shu was startled, and hurriedly knelt down: "Concubine Concubine, there are many doubts about this matter, you can't just rely on a word from the court lady to suspect it. On the heads of my concubines!" The emperor couldn't help but said: "Mother Concubine, although Concubine Shu is arrogant, she will never be so cruel and merciless, there must be something strange in it!" The concubine could not help but hesitate, and Wang Zhaorong burst into tears: "Mrs. The concubine, the concubine and the prince are soft-spoken and bullied everywhere in the palace, and now some people even want to take the lives of our mother and son. If the concubine does not protect the concubine and the prince, the concubine and the prince will die at the hands of traitors sooner or later! "The words were so sad that everyone was moved, and the emperor also felt pity, "My concubine, are you blaming me for not protecting your mother and child?"

Wang Zhaorong didn't even look at the emperor: "The concubine dare not, the concubine is just like an ant, how dare you blame the emperor. It doesn't matter how the concubine feels wronged, but if someone hurts the prince, the concubine will do everything she can to refuse it, and will not give up!" "After that, he hugged the second prince and cried sadly. Seeing his mother was so sad, the prince couldn't help crying with Zhao Rong.The emperor felt guilty, and everyone couldn't help being moved by Zhaorong's love for his son.

The concubine said sharply: "Whoever dares to murder the prince, the Ai family will never let her go!" After saying that, she gave Guo Shu a hard look, Guo Shu was shocked, and the emperor couldn't persuade her anymore. "Catch that Shui'er to Ai's family and it will be clear!" Guo Zichao got the order and led a group of Yulin soldiers to search.

Concubine Guo Shu was flustered and waited anxiously, and everyone comforted Wang Zhaorong one after another, and Wang Zhaorong gradually calmed down.After a while, Guo Yihua came to report: "Report to the emperor, searched the harem, but there is no trace of Shui'er, that Shui'er may have disappeared!" The concubine was very surprised.Then Wang Zhaorong said: "It can't be that someone kills people to silence the mouth, destroys the corpse and wipes out the traces!" After finishing speaking, he glanced at Concubine Guo Shu.

Concubine Guo Shu yelled: "The concubine is wronged, the concubine has been copying Buddhist scriptures with the concubine all night, and she has not left Changle Palace!" "How could you do this kind of thing yourself!" Wang Zhaorong said coldly.The concubine ordered, "Scrutinize the Mingluan Hall closely, don't miss one place!"

After a long time, Guo Zichao rushed to report: "Report to the Empress Dowager that Shui'er's body was found in a well in the back garden of Mingluan Palace!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Concubine Guo Shu's face was ashen, and she shouted: "How could that be? How could it be!" The concubine was furious: "You poisonous woman, what else can you say! You really have a heart of snakes and scorpions!" The emperor couldn't help but said: "My queen, this matter is full of doubts, so don't jump to conclusions."

The concubine said coldly: "Does the emperor disregard the safety of the prince for the sake of a poisonous woman? The emperor is really a saint!" Seeing that the emperor still pleaded for Concubine Guo Shu, Wang Zhaorong felt annoyed, suddenly pulled out the hairpin, stabbed at the neck, and said: "The emperor If you don’t return the ministers and concubines to justice today, the ministers and concubines will have to die!” Everyone hastily stopped them and persuaded: “Zhao Rong, what are you doing, what will you do if you are dead, the prince!”

"Your Majesty, you don't need to say any more, come here, confine Concubine Guo Shu in Mingluan Palace, and deal with it after the truth comes out!" The emperor had no choice but to watch Concubine Guo Shu being escorted away. "I'm wronged, my concubine really never did it!" Concubine Guo Shu cried all the way.

"Let's leave, everyone! Let's talk about it tomorrow, the second prince will go to Changle Palace with Ai's family!" The concubine waved her hand, signaling that everyone should leave.That Wang Zhaorong stared blankly at the Jiuhua Palace, secretly saddened.Seeing her like this, the emperor suddenly felt pity for her, and said: "It seems that the bedroom of my concubine needs to be repaired before she can live in it. It's better to live with me in Feishuang Palace these few days!" Show envy.The Feishuang Hall is the living hall where the emperor rests, and concubines are generally not allowed to enter.Now that Wang Zhaorong was blessed by misfortune, he was naturally very flattered, the emperor gently pulled Zhaorong, Zhaorong showed joy, and walked to Feishuang Hall together.

Yang Yu felt physically and mentally exhausted after watching it. Could it be God's will?Why is it so difficult to be favored by oneself?While sighing slightly, Aunt Rong whispered in her ear: "The concubine told you not to be discouraged. Zhaorong was frightened today. The emperor should accompany her. Don't worry about the beauty." Yang Yu smiled and said, "Yu'er understands." Aunt Rong nodded and left.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Yang Yu walked back slowly. Biyue and Qiuchan knew that she was unhappy, so they proposed to take a walk by Taiye Lake to relax.Yang Yu also had this intention, and the three of them walked to the Taiye Lake together.
