Chapter 422 This is Concubine Rou

Shangguan Ruoli went directly to the harem, to Concubine Yun's palace.

The courtyard was quiet, without the wailing and crying as imagined, and the atmosphere was oppressive and dull.

Many concubines had already gathered in the hall to see the little prince off, the crown princess Shangguan Ruoxian and the crown prince's side concubine Xu Jingxuan also came.

Everyone was slightly taken aback when they saw Shangguan Ruoli.

It's not that she was surprised by her arrival, but that she didn't look like she was just recovering from a serious illness, so radiant and refreshed.

Shangguan Ruoli didn't care about these things, and directly bowed to the empress sitting in the high position: "My daughter-in-law has seen the empress."

A murderous intent flashed in the queen's eyes, but she could only bear it with all her strength, and said lightly, "Get flat."

"I heard that Princess Xuan recovered from her illness. What a coincidence. When you recovered from your illness, Prince Xuan returned to Beijing." A beautiful woman whose age could not be seen said softly.

Shangguan Ruoli knew that this was Concubine Rou, the mother and concubine of King Qin.Whether it's appearance or voice, she agrees with her title: Rou.

That small, exquisite, weak and boneless figure looked from behind and thought she was an underage girl. I really don't know how she gave birth to the burly and strong son of the King of Qin.

He said lightly: "It's all thanks to my mother. If my mother hadn't taken me to the palace for recuperation and sent a highly skilled imperial physician to treat me, otherwise I might have gone to hell now."

Concubine Rou saw that she called herself "I" and had no respect for her, her eyes darkened slightly, and then she smiled and said: "The empress really loves Princess Xuan."

The empress felt worse than being unable to vomit after eating flies, and said coldly: "The eleventh prince has not yet been buried, and you are laughing here. Those who know are the imperial concubine and Princess Xuan, but those who don't know think you are taking pleasure in other's misfortune."

Concubine Rou immediately put away her smile, pursed her lips and remained silent.

She is the highest-ranking woman in the palace besides the empress. She was scolded by the empress for guarding so many concubines, and no matter how thick-skinned she was, she turned into a boiled shrimp.

In the past, her son was in a distant fiefdom. When he came back this time, he must win the game and let her feel proud in front of these women.

Concubine De said: "Your Majesty, it is better to find a way for Concubine Yun to let the Eleventh Prince enter the coffin."

The queen rubbed her brows, and said to the maid: "Concubine Yun, please come out."

The maid agreed and went to the inner hall.

After a while, Concubine Yun came out holding a child in a royal blue brocade robe.

The child's small hand hangs down weakly, and the manifestation is gone.

Concubine Yun's face was pale, but with a smile on her face, she hugged the child and saluted the queen: "The concubine pays respects to the queen!"

The queen frowned even tighter, and said: "Concubine Yun, the eleventh prince has already gone, you can let him go, let him rest in peace, and go to reincarnation earlier."

Concubine Yun blinked her eyes in confusion when she heard the words, looked lovingly at the eleventh prince in her arms, glared fiercely at the queen, and said, "Queen, even if you don't like the emperor's doting on his concubines, you can't curse him Concubine's son!"

Her voice was very shrill and dark.

But suddenly remembered something, and immediately changed into a gentle smile, and kissed the tenth prince's little face, his face was full of the radiance of maternal love, "The concubine's prince is well, he just fell asleep, he just returned to the tenth prince. The concubine is singing, he wakes up in a while, can run, dance, and be naughty..."

Her expression was obviously very happy, but it made people feel tragic and weird.

All the people present were moved, and many people had already begun to wipe their tears.

Even though Shangguan Ruoli insisted on being ruthless and cold-blooded, he couldn't help feeling hot in his eyes and feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

The most painful thing in the world is when a mother loses a child, let alone such a young child.

Shangguan Ruoli loathes and looks down on the person behind the attack, to attack an innocent child, it is simply dark and inhumane!
Everyone began to persuade, coax and deceive, but Concubine Yun was not fooled.

Seeing that Concubine Yun was holding the child alive and not letting go, the Empress was also impatient, and said to the maid who was wiping tears beside Concubine Yun, "You guys think of a way, if this goes on, the Eleventh Prince should have a taste..."

Although it is already autumn, the weather is still very hot, and the corpse will decompose quickly.

In the end, it was Concubine Yun's personal maid who understood her, wiped away her tears, and coaxed: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has sent a message to see you later, you'd better put the little prince down and go get dressed and pick him up!"

The nanny also said tremblingly: "Yes, the little prince has fallen asleep, let him sleep on the bed, the emperor will blame you for spoiling the little prince again."

Concubine Yun didn't speak, her expression was dull for a moment, then her eyes rolled, as if she was trying hard to think.I felt something was wrong, as if I forgot something very important, but couldn't remember it.

"Niang Niang, the emperor is coming, give the little prince to the servant!" The nanny directly reached out to hug the eleventh prince, trying to hug him from Concubine Yun's arms.

Concubine Yun looked a little hesitant, and loosened her hands a little.

The maid hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, let this servant help you to dress up, you always hope to see the emperor beautifully."

Concubine Yun loosened her hands a little more, but she frowned tightly, still hesitating.

Seeing this, the nanny used a little force to hold the eleventh prince out of Concubine Yun's arms, turned around and walked quickly to the side hall where the eleventh prince lived.

Concubine Yun sat there on her knees, still holding the child in her hands, staring blankly at the direction where the nanny disappeared.

The queen gave Concubine Yun's maid a wink, and the maid helped Concubine Yun get up, and coaxed Concubine Yun to go back to the inner hall to freshen up.

Concubine Yun seemed to have lost her soul, her eyes were dull, she did not salute the empress, concubine and other high-ranking concubines, she walked towards the inner hall step by step like a puppet.

Shangguan Ruoli knew that Concubine Yun was insane after suffering a huge loss of spirit. She subconsciously knew that the Eleventh Prince was gone, but she just forced herself to forget the heart-piercing fact
The queen ordered the people from the House of Internal Affairs to quickly carry the small coffin in. The nanny and the maids didn't dare to cry loudly, so they quickly changed the eleventh prince into a small shroud, and then put the eleventh prince into the small coffin.

The eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs swiftly closed the coffin, put the coffin nails on it, and then left with the small coffin on his shoulders.

The whole process was like being a thief, which probably alarmed Concubine Yun inside.

After the matter was settled, the queen asked everyone to disperse, and took the lead to leave with all the maids and eunuchs.

Then Concubine Rou, when passing by Shangguan Ruoli, gave her a meaningful look.

Nima!Shangguan Ruoli cursed secretly, look at your grandma!
Concubine De got up and said to the people in Concubine Yun's palace: "I suggest you quickly prepare a puppet the size of the Eleventh Prince and wear the clothes of the Eleventh Prince, if Concubine Yun gets into trouble, at least try to appease it, maybe it will work. "

Concubine Shu also said: "Let the imperial physician prescribe some calming soup first."

Then the two left one after the other without even looking at Shangguan Ruoli.

It stands to reason that Concubine De and Concubine Shu are the closest people to her in the palace, but they probably did not express anything to her in order to avoid suspicion.

Shangguan Ruoli turned around and went out, but was stopped by someone.
