Harem Empress

Chapter 36
"Look, you're nervous." The queen on the side said with a straight face.

"The concubine has lost her manners." Fang concubine said reassuringly.

Just when Emperor Jingyang wanted to continue asking, Li Guipin, who was beside him, clutched his stomach and collapsed on the ground. The apse was in a mess and filled with the smell of blood. My intuition told me that Concubine Li Gui had a miscarriage.

At this time, the palace servants and imperial physicians in Jingyue Pavilion came in and out nervously, the bloody smell in Jingyue Pavilion became more intense, and Emperor Jingyang sat on the window couch outside with a sullen face. The imperial doctor walked over quickly, Fu bowed down and said, "Long live Qi, the fetus has already died in the womb."

After hearing Imperial Physician Liu's words, Emperor Jingyang stood up abruptly, glared at Imperial Physician Liu who was kneeling on the ground, said nothing, and then said emphatically, "I'll go in and see her."

For some reason, he suddenly began to sympathize with Emperor Jing. This is the second child he lost, and his heart must have been hurt to the limit.

After leaving the gate of Mirror Moon Pavilion, the disappointment in my heart began to spread little by little. I didn't expect Li Guifei to have a miscarriage. How could there be a miscarriage for no reason? Could it be that there was something wrong with the food at the family banquet? Who is it? He wants to harm the baby in Li Guipin's womb!

The sun had already set, and when passing by the door of the imperial dining room, she saw a maidservant sneaking there, she quickly hid, and told the green sleeve beside her, "Keep an eye on her."

After finishing speaking, he and Taxue took a detour back to Xiangyuan Pavilion. When they arrived at Xiangyuan Pavilion, it was already dark, and the green sleeves did not come back after dinner. Some worried about her comfort, they quickly called An Guoshun in and ordered She went out to look for the green sleeves, after a long time An Guoshun walked in quickly, Fu lowered himself and saluted, "Your Majesty, I didn't find the girl with the green sleeves!"

Hearing what An Guoshun said, his heart suddenly became aroused, and he began to fidget in the room. Luxiu is also a cautious person, so there will be no mistakes. Once again, the concubine ordered An Guoshun to continue to look for it, and be careful not to disturb others .

Worrying that Luxiu still didn't come back after a whole night, and breakfast was useless, he planned to go to look for Luxiu with Taxue, when suddenly a little eunuch trotted in all the way and almost collided with him, "Damn it, slave!"

"Which palace are you from? What can I do with this palace?" He asked eagerly.

"Your Majesty, the servant is from the Liyuan Building. A female corpse was found in the Liyuan Building. The waist card proves that it is the maidservant Luxiu of Xiangyuan Pavilion." The little eunuch said with a panicked expression.

"What? You said, you said that Luxiu is dead!" The little eunuch exclaimed, looking at the little eunuch in astonishment, his head was dizzy, and he almost fell down. Sleeves are going to die, I'm going to see for myself.

When we arrived at the Liyuan Building, there was a dead body in the yard. Those green shoes were what Lvxiu usually wore most. He walked over in disbelief. His right hand tremblingly lifted off the cold white cloth. Lying on the icy snow, eyes closed, lips slightly open, pale face blended with the snow on the ground, tears fell down, the whole person sat helplessly on the ground, the green-sleeved The smiling face appeared in front of my eyes again, so cute, I promised her to find a good marriage for her, but now she is lying in front of me coldly, how can I accept this fact, my sisters.

Trying hard to pretend to be calm, he asked, "When did you find out? Have you found the murderer!"

"My lady, it's Chen Shi, and the cleaning eunuch found the green-sleeved girl lying alone in the side hall of the Liyuan Tower, and she had already lost her breath." The eunuch in charge of the Liyuan Tower replied quietly.

At this time, I saw a dark purple from the neck of the green sleeve, stretched out my hand and put aside the face of the green sleeve, a long black strangle mark stood out in front of my eyes, I wished I could crush the white cloth in my hand, and my chest began to undulate, There was a murderous intent in her eyes, the green sleeve was strangled to death, and from the strangle marks, it could be seen that the villain struck so hard that she was not even given a momentary chance to breathe.It's all my fault that I shouldn't let her follow that suspicious palace maid. It must be her, they must have found out that Luxiu was following them, and they must have led Luxiu into the Liyuan Tower to kill her because she was afraid of her whereabouts being exposed. Such a vicious heart!Gently covered the green sleeve with the white cloth, and said coldly: "I will definitely avenge you, and I will make them pay for your life!"

Standing up slowly, he said calmly: "Can Mr. Lao take me to have a look and find the side hall with green sleeves."

"Hey, my lady, this way please."

I thought that the Liyuan Building was located in a remote place, but I didn’t expect that the side hall was even more remote. I opened the door and walked in. There was nothing inside, only a few simple mahogany chairs and tables. Go get busy, I will leave after staying for a while."

Only me and Taxue were left in the room. I looked around and saw a few obvious scratches on the pillar beside me. I touched them lightly. It seemed that it was still new. It must be green. At that time, she must have been struggling hard, but I didn't know it. I closed my eyes and sighed. At this time, Taxue suddenly picked up a small piece of fabric from the nearest mahogany chair. , handed it to me, looked up and down the piece of dark blue cloth, it should be left by the murderer, this is the evidence left by the green sleeve for me, clutching the piece of cloth tightly, turned and left Liyuan Building.

Judging from this piece of fabric, it should be owned by the eunuch in the palace, but where should the eunuch be found in the vast crowd? The salute said: "The concubine pays respects to the emperor, the emperor is auspicious, the concubine was disrespectful just now, and I hope the emperor will forgive me."

"Get up quickly, I've heard about everything in your palace." Emperor Jingyang helped me up with a gentle expression on his face.

Presented the freshly made Biluochun, sat opposite Emperor Jingyang, and said softly: "Lvxiu is the servant girl brought into the palace by my concubine, and my concubine treats her like a sister. It hurts so much." She said, gently wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with the silk handkerchief in her hand.

"Seeing that you are so sad, it would be nice to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to call you soon." Emperor Jingyang took a sip of tea and comforted him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, but no matter how good a palace maid is, it's not as good as a green sleeve." She said thoughtfully.

"I know you're sad, and I've ordered people to investigate this matter. It's much better now."

"My concubine, thank you, Long Live Lord, for your sympathy." With a smile on his lips, Fu lowered his body and saluted, and asked Emperor Jingyang tentatively: "Your Majesty, what clues can we find out about the miscarriage of Concubine Li Gui?" Obvious Seeing the muscles on Emperor Jingyang's face twitched.

After waiting for a while, Emperor Jingyang said, "It was because of eating red flowers at the family banquet that the miscarriage occurred."
