It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 381 Help will always come

Yang Xianrong looked at him in surprise. After all, he had never seen this person before. Even if he had heard something about him from Sima Zhong, he was still a stranger. Now, as soon as they met, he said such words. What was his intention?
Seeing Yang Xianrong's appearance, Princess Zheng behind Sima Chi also stood up, stretched out her hand to support her, and said softly: "Queen, my concubine, please sit with you for a while. I just brought some food here." , thinking that this incident was too sudden and the palace was not prepared enough, so I brought some things over. "

Cui Xi secretly blocked the princess's hand and said in a low voice: "Princess, this is against the rules. The queen is not allowed to eat food from outsiders."

Sima Chi's princess was speechless for a moment, pursed her lips and lowered her head. Another woman also stood up. She was Sima Chi's beauty, but she was really not beautiful and she was a bit old. She also bowed to the sheep Xianrong in a very polite manner before saying: "I can go to the imperial kitchen to make some food. The Queen is so haggard, and taking soup and medicine may hurt her body. It is better to eat to replenish some energy and blood."

She reached out and grabbed Yang Xianrong's hand, and deliberately pinched her finger wearing an emerald ring. Yang Xianrong's heart moved and he nodded, "That's it. I can't eat anything, just some hot porridge."

"Yes, I'll go right away." The woman saluted Sima Chi and the princess before hurriedly walking out.

Lu Zhu was not around, so she couldn't tell whether this person was the Embroidered Clothes Messenger, but seeing that she was so familiar with Tianyuan Palace and Xianyang Palace, she must have stayed in the palace.

Sure enough, when the princess sent the sheep and returned to her funeral shed, she whispered: "Liu Meiren was the maid who lived by the prince when he lived in the palace. She is very familiar with every place in the palace."

"Oh." Yang Xianrong just nodded.

"My maiden name is Liang, and my maiden name is Lan Bi." Princess Liang introduced herself, "I am three years older than the prince, and five years older than the queen."

"Oh."

"Your Majesty is also a bit impatient... Hey, Queen, don't think too much, there is still room for change, so don't worry." Liang Lanbi sighed, "Who knew things would turn out like this? Originally, we all Planning to slip away from Jinyong City..."

The two talked quietly. Sima Chi saw an official coming to burn incense and kneel before him, so he sat under another tomb. After those officials knelt down, they also wanted to salute him, the future emperor.

It was another busy day. Yang Xianrong sat for a while and then passed out again. This time, she pretended to be unconscious because she wanted to avoid Sima Chi's family first and wait for Lu Zhu to come back.

However, at dusk, Mao Hongmao led many people in to deliver sacrifices. Because the first seven days have passed, a batch of sacrifices must be replaced. He straightened his back and directed Sima Yue's soldiers to rush up and down. The work was extremely orderly, but it also made these people very tired.

After everything was arranged, he carried a huge food box into the Tianyuan Palace's dormitory, saying that according to the rules, this was the place where Sima Zhong died, and some tributes had to be placed.

No one stopped him, and no one dared to stop him.

He took Lao Zhang into the dormitory, and when he saw Yang Xianrong, he immediately knelt down and cried loudly.

"Forget it, it's already like this, there's no point crying." Yang Xianrong sat down hoarsely, "Tell me first, is that Miss Liu..." "Yes." Mao Hongmao replied immediately, "She She was originally the little palace maid next to the late emperor. Later, the prince fell in love with her when he was a child and refused to let go of her hand... The late emperor thought that it would be okay to leave an embroidery messenger next to his youngest son, so he I promised her to be his concubine, but I didn’t expect..."

"I just didn't expect that his son would also be the emperor." Yang Xianrong said with a bitter smile, "So, can I believe them?"

"This thing is trustworthy." Mao Hongmao glanced at Lao Zhang next to him. Lao Zhang immediately understood and quickly opened the bottom layer of the big food box. They were all Yang Xianrong's favorite porridge and side dishes, as well as Some beef mince, with a lot of salt and pepper, it tastes very fragrant.

"The spices were left over from the previous palace. It was said that there was some kind of Great Cold Banquet, and there were a lot of leftover condiments roasted. I saw that they were not bad, so I used some." Lao Zhang took out the minced meat. , still steaming, "Queen, eat some, it's good for your health."

Yang Xianrong held the bowl of hot minced meat soup with tears in his eyes. Great Cold Banquet? How long ago that happened, when she had just entered the palace, Liu Yao dressed up as a musician to help him solve the case of the Shakuhachi ghost by the lake, and her name was truly engraved in the hearts of the harem people. The power.

I took a bite and it was very fragrant.

Cui Xi couldn't help crying. She knelt at Yang Xianrong's feet and said, "Girl, eat more, your health is the most important thing."

Yang Xianrong took another bite, and the warm feeling slipped from his throat and fell straight into his stomach, gradually feeling warm all over his body.

"Queen, while you are eating, I will quickly talk to you about some outside matters." Mao Hongmao felt much relieved when he saw Yang Xianrong finally eating one bite at a time, and hurriedly said: "I still have something to do here. Okay, Sima Yue doesn't have too many restrictions on us. It's okay to go out to buy some things. I discussed it with my brother, and we can only wait for the imperial mausoleum to be attacked for now. The floods will flood and it won't be repaired for a while, so it is very likely that the emperor's coffin will be sent to Jinyong City for burial, and then the people in the harem may go, or they may not go. "

"Why?" Cuixi asked on behalf of the sheep.

"80% because I am afraid that the people in the harem will not be buried. If I go to Jinyong City and the supervision is not strict, someone will definitely run away. Therefore, it is very likely that I will stay in the palace and wait for the day of burial..."

"If I still live in the palace, where will the new emperor and queen live?" Yang Xianrong ate less than half of the bowl of minced meat and put down the bowl. Lao Zhang refused to let her stop eating, so he quickly filled a bowl of hot rice soup and put it in her hands.

"Sima Yue won't let Sima Chi ascend the throne immediately. He hasn't killed these annoying people yet, so he has to make arrangements." Mao Hongmao pushed the side dishes again and motioned for Yang Xianrong to eat some too.

However, Yang Xianrong hadn't eaten for several days, and he couldn't eat that much at once, so he just took a bite of it.

"Actually, I've always had a question. Why didn't Sima Yue become the emperor, but instead asked Sima Chi to become the emperor?"

"He has already committed the crime of regicide. He is always afraid that if he becomes emperor, he will not be able to face his ancestors after his death." Mao Hongmao guessed, "He is older than the emperor, and he will not be emperor for a few years. , it’s better to make more money by becoming a master... It’s just a matter of fame and reputation, and it’s really bad at heart.”

"That will be much easier to handle." Yang Xianrong even put down the bowl of hot rice soup, but there was a smile on his lips.
