concubines

Chapter 330

Stepping into Qingquan Palace, I saw Miaoli talking to Zhou Yining, Zhou Shuxuan let Zhou Yining go out, and sat down by himself.

Miao Li reluctantly stood up, saluted and said: "My concubine pays respects to the emperor."

"Forget it, forget it, there is no need for this between you and me." Zhou Shuxuan waved his hand, "How is it now? Are you satisfied?"

Not particularly satisfied.

Miao Li didn't answer, but asked instead: "The emperor ordered her to die, how do you want her to die?"

Zhou Shuxuan tilted his head a bit unclearly. If he dies, he dies. Should he choose a way to die?
Miao Li understood his doubts, "Doesn't the Emperor understand? Thieves and murderers are both crimes, but they do different things and receive different punishments. I think she is not enough to die now." Civilian outrage."

Princess Helan has done such a heinous thing, and the word death is really cheap for her.

Zhou Shuxuan asked: "Then how do you think the people will be angry?"

Miao Li said with a blank face: "The concubine feels that the body will be divided into five horses, executed at a young age, or groomed. It is not enough for the concubine to feel sad, but I really can't think of other ways, and I can barely accept it."

Listening to her say these words always feels weird, as if all the previous images have collapsed.But Zhou Shuxuan was not particularly unacceptable, and even a little bit happy, and he didn't like soft and delicate flowers very much.

Happy to be happy, these words are really unacceptable.

"No, let alone Ling Chi's execution, she can't even behead her. She has to leave her a whole body. Maybe Xichang will come to ask for the body. What should I give them, or else I can give it piece by piece, let alone piece by piece. It’s even more impossible to give them every single trace. And those intestines and stomachs, what are they used to pretend? Do you want to string them together?”

Mother Xi was about to vomit, and the way of death didn't sound too scary, but once he realized it, it was really disgusting.

Miao Li listened without changing expression, thought for a moment, and then said without changing expression: "The emperor wants to keep the whole body, but the concubine wants to make a peach wood coffin for her, and then pour water on her grave. Black dog blood."

Zhou Shuxuan didn't know much about these things, and looked up at Gao Fu suspiciously. Gao Fu leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Peach trees break the yin, and the blood of the black dog wards off evil spirits. The empress wants people to be scattered forever and never have peace."

Zhou Shuxuan understood, and looked up at Miaoli, "You don't really believe in these things, do you?"

"The concubines are ignorant, they just believe in these things. You don't talk about strange powers, you just don't say anything, and you don't say that you don't believe it. Gaozu passed by Qinming Mountain and heard that there is a dragon vein there. Why don't you get off your horse and walk? Why can't my concubine believe me?"

Miao Li held her breath in her heart, and spoke quickly and anxiously.She just wanted Princess Helan to be reborn forever and cut off all her paths.

"Okay, okay," Zhou Shuxuan interrupted her helplessly, "The coffin is fine. As for the blood of the black dog, it depends on where she is buried."

In case Xichang came to take the corpse away first, he couldn't let people go to Xichang to splash blood, that would be too much deception.

Barely doing what Miao Li wanted, Miao Li sat quietly and stopped talking.

Princess Helan ruined Li Youfu's real life and made Li Youfu leave so early.It's really not too much for her to do this, these are just illusory things, invisible and intangible, I don't know if they really exist, so that she can vent her anger.

Zhou Shuxuan sat for a while before leaving.

Miao Li was sitting in the room thinking about it, tears were falling unconsciously again, as if no matter how many things she did, it was useless, no matter how many things she did, people would never come back, it was meaningless.

Miao Li cried for a while, and suddenly someone came in from outside.Seeing him, Miao Li quickly wiped away her tears, pretending to be nonchalant.Hurry up to greet him, "Sixth brother, you are here."

Qu Xingeng lowered his head, he didn't seem to have much energy, "The emperor specially asked me to come into the palace, and he said your name, so I came here first."

Miao Li held back her tears and said: "Sixth brother, I failed to protect her well, I really feel sorry for you."

Qu Xingeng said with a hoarse voice: "It doesn't make any sense to say these things now, and you are having a hard time, no wonder you. Fortunately, the emperor is not too confused and did not favor the murderer. I am entering the palace now, just want to see her The last side."

Miao Li nodded, asked someone to give him the eunuch's clothes, and took him to Yuhua Pavilion to see Li Youfu's body.

After walking for a long time, Qu Xingeng remained silent, and said abruptly, "We were talking before that I am much older than her, and I may be one step ahead of her in the future. At that time, she was a lonely old man. Ma'am, maybe it will be so sad, but now she will always be a little girl."

Miao Li couldn't bear it anymore, and she didn't dare to cry, she gritted her teeth and wiped her tears.When she arrived at the Yuhua Pavilion, Miaoli didn't dare to look up when she entered the door, but kept staring at the ground, unable to face the body.

Qu Xingeng calmly offered incense, burned paper money, looked at the coffin for a long time, but never shed tears, staring at the spirit tablet as if trying to burn it through with his eyes.

After a long time, maybe I knew it was not suitable, and I was afraid of being gossiped by others, so I went out.The way back was still silent, and I walked a few steps.As if remembering something, she said to Miao Li: "Then I will leave the palace here and not go to your place."

Miao Liliu didn't know what to say, two sad people would only be sadder when they were together, and wanted someone to send him out, but suddenly remembered this matter, "I told the emperor, maybe in a few years You can send her body out, what do you mean?"

"There are no people left, so it doesn't matter where I stay, but... I still want to..." Qu Xingeng clenched his fists, suddenly regained his energy, and raised his head and said, "So I must trouble my sister to remember this matter. You can wait."

Miao Li sent him out with tears in her eyes, feeling as if her heart was crushed.Obviously, a little faster, a little faster, can send people out.Even if you are unconscious, it is better than being in a long sleep.

Miaoli cried and went back to Qingquan Palace, and heard the news of Princess Helan's death as soon as she entered the door.It was said that she refused to die directly, and in the end she was strangled to death alive, and her death was extremely tragic.

Miao Li didn't feel any fluctuation in her heart when she heard it, she just felt that she deserved it.I feel a little regretful, I should have killed her at that time, don't bear it again and again, forbearance can only get worse and worse, if you don't bear it, there will be nothing like this.

Li Youfu was buried three days later, and Miao Li fell ill on that day. She was so sick that she was dizzy and did not go out to see Li Youfu on her last journey.

It seems that if you don't say goodbye, people will come back.

Spring is still going on, and the flowers outside are blooming as gorgeously, but she doesn't like spring anymore.

When Li Youfu was buried, Madam Su killed herself in front of the grave, saying that her young lady was timid and afraid to be alone, so she wanted to go down to accompany her.

That's right, Li Youfu is really timid. Every time she sleeps with her, she is not allowed to tell strange stories, and if she does, she will shiver under the covers.

Miao Li heard the depression in her heart, and suddenly envied them a little. It is really a complete relief after death, and the disease became more and more severe.

Mammy Xi brought the medicine over, scooped it up with a spoon and placed it near her mouth when it was cold, "Your Majesty, drink some."

Miao Li stretched out her hand and pushed it away, "Forget it, I feel uncomfortable after drinking the bitter taste in my mouth."

"But you have to take medicine when you are sick. How can you do without medicine? It's useless for the imperial doctor to come three times a day."

Miao Li struggled to turn over, "You can cure the disease, but you can't cure the life. Fate is like this, so do what you want. Go out, I want to sleep for a while."

Mammy Xi looked at the medicine, then at her, and backed out holding the bowl.

Zhou Shuxuan, who was guarding the door, went up to meet him, saw how much was put in the bowl and how much came out, and asked, "Why, are you still unwilling to drink the medicine?"

"Yes, the empress said that the disease can be cured, but the life cannot be cured. The servant is really worried about her." If she continues to be depressed like this, Mammy Xi is really afraid that she will be overwhelmed again.

"Did the imperial doctor come to see you today? How did you say it?"

"The imperial doctor came here today and still didn't see anyone, and the little Highness didn't even see us when he came here. She didn't even want us to be around anymore. She always said that she wanted to sleep for a while and let us go out. I don't know if it's real or fake. If it goes on like this, good people can’t bear it.”

Zhou Shuxuan was also helpless, because he was negligent before, and she seemed to be in good condition at the beginning, and she was not too stimulated.People seem to be more energetic than at the beginning, and they can argue with him without beating around the bush, but they suddenly became like this.

It felt like she had finished what she wanted to do. Princess Helan died and was sent back to Xichang.Li Youfu was buried properly, Qu Xingeng resigned from office, and after everything was settled, he slowly began to feel uncomfortable, bit by bit.

"It's not a problem if you refuse to drink medicine. Has the imperial physician thought of a way? How about putting some in the meal?"

Mammy Xi sighed again, "Actually, I don't eat much, I just take two casual bites every time, as if I was dealing with a servant, and then I stopped using my chopsticks, saying that she is not hungry."

During this period of time, Mammy Xi watched Miao Li eating, and felt like feeding a cat, and the more she watched, the more uncomfortable she became.

Zhou Shuxuan didn't want to hear any more. During this period of time, he asked the imperial physician, and what he heard one after another was all bad news.It was said that she had liver qi stagnation, menstrual disorder, and her body was not good after the miscarriage before, so it was very difficult to recuperate.If she doesn't cooperate, it will be even more difficult.

The imperial doctor made him think about it a few times, don't worry so much, life and death are fate, which means that they have really tried their best.

Zhou Shuxuan stood at the door and dared not go in, for fear that meeting her would make her even worse.He is useless. After thinking about it carefully, he came up with someone who is useful.

Zhou Shuxuan took another look into the room, and said: "The people who are going to pick up the Meng family come in, including her younger brother. Tell him that you are here for the last time, and let him be mentally prepared."
