Chapter 212
When everyone looked at it, they saw that it was Concubine Huang Shu who had been silent all along.

Concubine Huang Shu was expressionless at the moment, but there was a bit of majesty and sternness in Wubo's eyes, which made people shudder. In addition to the warning conveyed in her words, she immediately fell silent. can shut up.

A dark color flashed in Concubine Xian's eyes, she raised her eyes to look at Concubine Huang Shu, but met her gaze.

The warning and mockery in that gaze hurt her eyes.

Both are first-class concubines, but their births are vastly different.

Concubine Huang Shu was not only born in the mansion of the general of Zhenguo, but also the concubine married by the monarch Mingmei.

Even though Concubine Xian is more likely to win now, she still has a bit of inferiority and jealousy towards concubines with background and background like Concubine Huang Shu.

Concubine Huang Shu just glanced at her, then turned her face away, continued to close her eyes, and collected her momentum, as if everything before was just a dream.

Some people were unwilling and seemed to want to complain, but seeing Concubine Xian's expression, they could only swallow their words.

The other party is obviously in a bad mood now, so it's better not to go up and make fire.

An Ning turned aside slightly, and then closed her eyes.

As the night got darker, many people also began to stagger around and groan without illness. After finding various excuses to ask for instructions, they all ran to the hall to rest one by one.

After the first person opened his mouth, within an hour, the mourning hall was empty again, and the number of people keeping watch ranged from hundreds to less than twenty.

The cold wind howls at night, and the white flags and candles sway along with it, and the shadows on the walls are mottled when the light and shadow overlap.

Some of the less courageous ones also began to feel a little unable to hold on. They were already exhausted, and now that they were highly concentrated, they were even more in a trance.

Suddenly, a scream suddenly sounded in the empty hall, with a terrible response.

The tense people were also frightened and screamed with their heads in their hands.

"Shut up!" Concubine Xian was also taken aback and almost screamed, but fortunately she held back in time and cast a glance at An Ning, who was not moving, and the rest of the high-ranking concubine, including Concubine Huang Shu. The concubine gritted her teeth fiercely and shouted at the screaming concubines and wives.

"Mother, empress, yes, yes, there is a strange shadow floating by." One of the concubines was so frightened that her face was as pale as paper, and while covering her heart in horror, she pointed tremblingly at the opposite wall covered by the curtain.

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, including An Ning.

But I saw the curtain fluttering gently with the wind, and reflected under the shadow of the lamp, there were pieces of shadows flying and floating.

"If you are not sincere, then you should all retreat, so as not to disturb the peace of the Queen Mother." Concubine Huang Shu said lightly, then turned her head and continued to close her eyes.

Concubine Xian pursed her lips, and sat down consciously, thinking suspiciously that the other party was alluding to herself, because these concubines were usually close to her.

She bit her lip angrily, gave those people a hard look, and said, "If you are too tired, go to rest, don't disturb others with nonsense."

Everyone was so frightened that they really didn't want to stay here anymore, so they could only grit their teeth, bite the bullet and go ahead, and hurried to the side hall.

This time, there were less than ten people left in the mourning hall.

Among them are An Ning's mother and son, Concubine Huang Shu and her brother-in-law, who is also the current wife of General Zhen Guo, and the other four, apart from Concubine Xian and another concubine who is with her, Concubine Zhen and a second-rank concubine.

Concubine Zhen is the biological mother of the fourth prince. In the fire, the fourth prince who was grounded also did not escape the catastrophe. He was killed in the fire. Concubine Zhen escaped the catastrophe because she was in the palace, but the pain of losing her son still made her feel sorry for her. Everything is disheartened, like a walking dead.

Since coming to the mourning hall, she hasn't said a word to anyone else, she just stood there in a daze, and when the wake started, she knelt and knelt motionless again, those who didn't know thought it was a wax figure.

Concubine Xian didn't want to stay in this gloomy place, but as one of the three first-rank concubines, she had to set an example, especially when the other two didn't move, and she also needed to win some good reputation for her son.

Kangkang in the front opened his eyes, rolled them around, and secretly glanced at his mother, then swept his spiritual sense, and after locking on to Concubine Xian, a burst of spiritual energy was shot out.

"Ho." Suddenly felt as if a breath of cold air had been blown on her neck, Concubine Xian barely jumped up in fright, and her whole body stiffened after taking a deep breath.

"Concubine Xian?" Seeing her reaction, the concubine next to her immediately stiffened, swallowed, and asked in a low voice.

Concubine Xian stiffened her body and cast a glance at Concubine Huang Shu and the others. Seeing that they didn't respond, she could only purse her lips and shake her head stiffly, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and recited Buddhist scriptures silently.

The instigator, Kang Kang, was secretly proud and was about to continue when his hand was pinched.

Turning his head, he saw that his mother still had her eyes closed, but from the strength of her hand, she could feel that she was probably angry.

Thinking that this is the mourning hall of the Empress Dowager, Kangkang shrank his neck and settled down.

But he didn't make trouble, and the influence didn't disappear.

The gate was not closed, and as the night deepened, the cold wind became stronger and stronger, and it kept pouring in, making the curtains rattle and flutter around, as if a person was floating.

As the cold wind brushed past her, Concubine Xian felt that there were many people around her constantly blowing cold air at her.

The following long night was a boundless torture for her, but she couldn't bear to leave until Chen Xi could go back. The rest of the people were just pale, but her face was gray and her lips were blue and haggard. It seems to have stayed up for several days and nights.

On the contrary, when the monarch saw her like this, he thought it was too sad and mournful, so it was rare to be kind to her, which was a blessing in disguise.

Wei Sichen was waiting outside the hall early in the morning. When An Ning came out, he knew that she would not be tired. Seeing that her complexion was not good, he still walked up to her with one hand and asked in a low voice, while holding Kang Kang with the other hand was a bit cold. little hands.

Those who also came out looked at the friendly and warm appearance of the family of three, and there were all kinds of criticisms, but most of them couldn't hide their jealousy towards An Ning.

As a second-married woman, although the person she married had no real power, at least she was really kind to her.

Those of them who married into noble families seem to be glamorous, but who knows the suffering behind it, it is nothing more than pretending to be affectionate and laughing before others, and crying alone to the lonely lamp behind.

How can people like An Ning get what they can't get.

All of a sudden, most people had bad feelings for An Ning again, and these feelings were not only from the concubine Xian's instruction, but also from the imbalance in their hearts.

An Ning didn't go out of the palace, but followed Wei Sichen to a nearby garden to rest. Since he was on seven nights, he had to stay for seven nights, and getting in and out was troublesome after all.

When the three of them arrived at the garden, Xueyue had already opened the food box and put breakfast on the stone table.

Because of their cultivation, their normal food now is made of spiritual ingredients, even rice is expensive spiritual rice.
