Chapter 234
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager strangled Nanny Ji to death, she became so angry that she passed out." The maid came to report to Xia Fei.

Shocked, Xia Fei hurriedly asked people to report to Wei Yan, and then led someone to see Queen Mother Zhao.

When Xia Fei arrived outside the gate of Dekunning Palace, she saw that Wei Tuan had already rushed over.

Wei Wei stopped Xia Fei and said: "The queen is pregnant, be careful to be alarmed." Then he ordered Fei Cui and others: "Help your empress back to the palace, take care of her, and don't run around without my permission."

Xia Fei was about to say more, but Wei Yu squeezed her little hand and said in a low voice: "Go back quickly, I will take care of the Queen Mother's affairs."

Nanny Zhu, Fei Cui and others hurriedly supported Xia Fei to turn around.

A few days later, the Empress Dowager Zhao was seriously ill, and the medicine and stone were useless.

In the morning of this day, the servant came to report to Xia Fei: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has passed away."

Although Xia Fei was mentally prepared, upon hearing this, the comb in her hand still fell to the ground.

In Kunning Palace, Zhao Jiaoyun stared blankly at the body of Empress Dowager Zhao, then stood up suddenly, bumped his head against the pillar, blood spattered three feet on the spot, and fell down.

"Jiaoyun!" Princess Baibao was crying to death, but seeing Zhao Jiaoyun touch the pillar and died, her heart hurt even more, she sobbed, "Why are you bothering?"

A nun quietly came over, held Princess Baibao tightly, and whispered in her ear: "Princess, remember what the Empress Dowager said, don't complain to the Emperor and Empress, the most important thing is to save your life."

Princess Baibao only shed tears and did not answer.

After finishing the funeral of Empress Dowager Zhao and Zhao Jiaoyun in the palace, it was September in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Wei Yu went to the court and said to Xia Fei: "Princess Baibao asked to bring the son-in-law to live in her fief, and I have agreed."

Xia Fei nodded, thinking of the little friendship with Princess Baibao in the past, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Wei Guan said again: "People from the Zhao family also invited themselves out of Beijing one after another. There is no sign of the Zhao family in the court."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Xia Fei said with a smile: "From now on, no one will hold back His Majesty, but His Majesty will be able to show his ambition!"

While talking, the maid came to report that Concubine Song Shu asked to see her.

Soon, Song Minyue entered the hall and knelt down towards Wei Guan and Xia Fei.

"What's the matter with Concubine Shu?" Wei Yan looked at Song Minyue who was kneeling on the ground, seeing her haggard and bony appearance, he couldn't help frowning.

Song Minyue kowtowed and said: "Recently, my concubine has been having nightmares all the time. She has taken many medicines but it still doesn't work. She has to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures to sleep peacefully. Because I want to ask the emperor and queen for permission, I will allow my concubine to build a nunnery in the palace. Temple, the ministers and concubines are willing to bring hair to practice, and from then on, they will always accompany the ancient Buddha with green lamps and pray for the emperor and queen."

"Have you thought about it?" Wei Wei asked.

"The concubine has made up her mind, I just ask the emperor and the queen to agree." Song Minyue kowtowed and said, "As for Princess A Luo, the concubine begs the queen to take her by her side and raise her."

Wei Wei turned his head to look at Xia Fei, and asked in a low voice, "A Fei, what do you mean?"

Xia Fei nodded and said: "The concubine listens to the emperor."

"Since that's the case, I will grant Concubine Shu's request!" Wei Yu said to Song Minyue.

"Thank you, Your Majesty and Empress, for your kindness!" Song Minyue kowtowed.

Coming out of Qingning Palace, Song Minyue's legs were a little weak.

Hongye supported her, and said in a low voice, "Ma'am, why bother?"

Song Minyue said: "Have you seen the death of the empress dowager and the noble concubine? If I don't take a step back, I will end up like that. Only in this way can the Song family and Xiaoluo's life be saved."
