Chapter 2965

The peace at this time is more like the calm before the storm.

Three days later at noon

Shocking news came out of the [-]th Mansion.

General Twenty is gone.

For a moment, the entire imperial city was in a panic. No one expected that General [-], who had galloped past the main road with his horse and whip raised a few days ago, would die a few days later.

Many people think this may be a rumor. After all, General [-] has suffered a hidden injury and no one is taking care of them now.

No one bothered to check out the rumors.

Too much trouble.

It wasn't until the white lanterns were hung up in the Ninth Mansion that everyone believed that Nian Yao was dead and that their Nwenty General was no longer there.

"What did you say?"

When Concubine Twenty heard the news that her brother had died of illness, she lost her balance and fell down on the stool.

"Why is such a good person gone? What do those doctors do? I want to go to His Majesty and ask if this is true or false."

After saying that, the [-]th noble concubine ran towards His Majesty's hall.

On the way, she met other concubines who saluted her and ignored them.

"What's wrong with Concubine Twenty? Are you in such a hurry?"

"Who knows? This is not something we can inquire about, lest we get into trouble."

Another young master pulled the one who just spoke and whispered.

"Everything I said is true. Look at her being so anxious and flustered, she doesn't even have the etiquette of a noble concubine. If she hadn't had a brother who was irritating her, her temper would be..."

"I told you not to say it!"

The woman covered her mouth to tell her not to speak again, and then dragged her into their own palace.

Concubine Twenty didn't care at all what those people were talking about behind her back. She just wanted to see His Majesty as soon as possible. "Your Majesty's [-]th noble concubine is asking for an audience outside the palace."

His Majesty put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Go and recruit Concubine Twenty."

"It's the emperor."

"Your Majesty, please come."

Eunuch Li went out and fetched Concubine No. [-] in.

Concubine Twenty was in a hurry because she had been running all the way, so her clothes and hair were a little messy when she came in.

"Your Majesty, my brother?"

His Majesty's eyes turned red when he looked at Concubine Twenty, and his face was full of sadness.

"General [-] is gone."

There was no light left in the eyes of the [-]th noble concubine, and she looked up at His Majesty in a daze.

"Your Majesty, what is going on here? Although my brother has an old disease and occasionally attacks it, it is impossible for him to have such an acute attack and still have no cure. There must be something wrong. Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly!"

His Majesty helped Concubine Twenty with a heavy look, "I have already sent people to tell you about this matter. I didn't want to tell you, but since you have already guessed it, I don't want to hide it from you anymore. There are indeed some problems here. My fate People are checking."

"Your Majesty, who did this? Now is the time when Northern Qi employs people. They dare to assassinate my brother. They must have good intentions!"

His Majesty patted Concubine Twenty's hand and comforted him: "Don't worry, once I find out who did it, I will definitely not let him go. Now that General Twenty has passed away, don't be too sad and hurt your body. I have sent someone to deal with the matter. General [-] has fought for Xuan Jing, I will definitely let General [-] leave in peace."

"My concubine, thank you, Your Majesty."

"I will send you back to your palace. If you are so anxious, you will not care about anything. Go back and have a good rest. I will stay with you in your palace."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Your Majesty stayed in the palace of the [-]th Concubine all afternoon, and had dinner with her.
