Chapter 389 Concubine Wan Gui dies, Concubine Shu is in action

In the spring of the twenty-third year of Chenghua.

Zhenning Palace.

In the corridor, the maid on night watch passed by holding a candle, ignoring a half-closed window.

Through the window, you can see a man wearing a eunuch's brocade robe holding a fat white cat in his arms, feeling quite uncomfortable standing.

"Greetings to the imperial concubine!"

Accompanied by the soft voice of the palace maid, Concubine Wan Gui arrived. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a high bun hairstyle, and her headdress was decorated with pavilions, cranes and other mascots carved from gold.

Concubine Wan Gui lay on her side on the phoenix, and her own maid placed the exquisite desserts on the small wooden table.

"My darling Pistachio, come here."

Concubine Wan Gui waved to Fengli Dao with a lazy and charming voice.

She was half lying on Fengta, while Fengli Dao slowly walked to Fengta and sat down next to Fengta, holding the cat in his arms.

"His Royal Highness will become an adult after marrying a concubine. I'm afraid the days to come will be even more difficult. You have to help me!"

Concubine Wan Gui said with a mixture of tenderness and reproach. She inserted the pastry with a flower and put it into Fengli Dao's mouth. She had always liked Yu Huatian, a good-looking and capable slave, and was willing to be... slightly frivolous by him.

Eunuchs have lost their masculine abilities, but they still yearn for masculinity. Many eunuchs are looking for something to eat in the palace. Letting Yu Huatian touch her feet is not considered excessive in Concubine Wan Gui's view. moment.

At this time, a new maid brought tea to Feng Tao and looked at Feng Li Dao calmly.

Concubine Wan Gui raised her teacup and took a sip, then looked at Fengli Dao on Fengtao, with a fierce look in her eyes. She leaned close to Fengli Dao's ear and said, "Kill her!"

"what?"

Fengli Dao raised his eyes stupidly, as if he really didn't understand what she said, and asked which one it was?

Concubine Wan Gui raised her chin to signal, and Fengli Dao nodded quickly.

Concubine Wan Gui showed a satisfied smile. She was worried that the prince's power and prestige would increase after marrying a concubine, but she didn't expect that a blind maid would come up to vent her anger.

For a little palace maid to look at her "darling pistachio" with such eyes, isn't this a proper way to take death?

Concubine Wan Gui was already thinking about how to make this maid die miserably, but she didn't expect that she suddenly felt a pain in her belly, her expression became extremely painful, and the tea cup in her hand fell to the ground and was smashed. She herself fell to the ground lifeless.

In the spring of the 23rd year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty, Concubine Wan Gui died. It was later discovered that the governor of the West Factory, Yu Huatian, conspired with a foreign maid to poison Concubine Wan Gui. Subsequently, a royal scandal was exposed. Yu Huatian had not purified himself and was dirty. The emperor was furious at the suspicion of troubling the palace and ordered all news to be suppressed.

The death of Concubine Wan Gui caused a great shock in the palace. Although the royal family tried their best to block the news, some rumors still spread.

Many people knew about Yuhuatian's bed embroidery with the imperial concubine, but no one expected that Yuhuatian would be a man. If he hadn't been caught and found out, who would have thought of a eunuch who had been in the palace since he was a child. When did he become a man?

After this incident, the emperor did not dare to rest assured about the eunuchs. The West Factory was immediately closed down, and all the personnel related to Yuhuatian were executed. The Forbidden City was filled with the smell of blood for several months.

The emperor at this time was crazy, and no one knew what he was crazy about, but no one dared to persuade him at this time, not even the queen mother or the prince, because it would really kill people.

……

At night, in the Ouchi Palace, a dark shadow passed by, escaping some guards outside the Forbidden City, and hid in a dark corner. The closer you go into the palace, the tighter the guards become. During this period, the guards became even tighter. Because the emperor was very unhappy and killed a lot of people during this period, the guards naturally did not dare to slack off in any way and were patrolling carefully.

A black shadow disappeared into the Forbidden Palace, appearing and appearing at will in a very familiar manner.

"I, I'm here, come out!"

A timid voice sounded from the corridor on one side, but it was a eunuch wearing a brocade robe. His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of being discovered by others.

"Eunuch Hong, weren't you very courageous when you framed Concubine Shu? Why have you become so timid now? There is no tail behind you!"

The voice of the man in black was full of sarcasm, but Eunuch Hong did not dare to refute at all, because now his life and that of his family members were in the hands of others.

Eunuch Hong bowed his head humbly and said, "Don't worry, our family has always been cautious. Before coming here, I walked around three or five times and no one would follow."

The man in black glanced at Eunuch Hong and said, "Since you, surnamed Hong, are here today, you must have decided to help Concubine Shu return to the palace!"

"My hero, Concubine Wan Guifei forced you to betray your empress, and there is nothing I can do about it!"

Eunuch Hong’s name was Qu Dao. When Liu Xi was able to frame the little fairy and drug her, it was the dead eunuch Eunuch Hong who acted as a spy. He listened to Liu Xi’s words and wanted to seek refuge with Concubine Wan Gui. Unexpectedly, Concubine Wan Gui died before long. .

Concubine Wan Gui died, and the emperor began to hate eunuchs. In addition, his family members outside the palace were also caught by the Murong family. When he got the news, Eunuch Hong was frightened and came to see her obediently.

"You should find an opportunity to submit the things here to the emperor, and wait for an opportunity to help Concubine Shu return the favor. Once this is done, you will be able to make meritorious deeds!"

The man in black handed a porcelain bottle to Eunuch Hong. The emperor had killed so many people during this period, and he should have started to calm down by now and be able to think of a way to start planning.

The emperor was already moody because of the death of Concubine Wan Gui. He had trouble sleeping and eating, and had insomnia. After adding more medicine, the emperor's insomnia became very serious and he could not sleep at night.

This kind of miraculous secret medicine will not be detected. Then it only needs to be combined with other secret medicines to make the emperor dream of Concubine Shu, and he will naturally think of the good things of his past, and Liu Xi will be exposed at that time. Everything about the frame-up will fall into place.

All plans are proceeding in an orderly manner.

In the side hall that night, the rich emperor sat on the dragon chair on the nine-foot platform. Eunuch Hong stood beside him, and the maids stood on the side to wait on him. Below, there were singing and dancing performances.

In the hall, seven or eight young women in colorful clothes were waving their sleeves and performing wonderful songs and dances. There was also a special band playing music on one side.

"Ugh!"

The emperor looked at the singing and dancing, but he couldn't take it in at all. He sighed irritably, and the singing, dancing and music stopped.

The emperor waved his hand to the palace maid and singer below, and said angrily: "Get out, get out, they are all a waste of money."

The singers, maids and others below all knelt down to salute fearfully, and then the maids and singers all retreated together. During this time, the emperor was moody and had killed many people, and they did not dare to stay long.

"Your Majesty, drink a bowl of nourishing soup!"

At this time, Eunuch Hong brought a bowl of soup. The emperor drank it without doubting his presence. He only felt a little more energetic. He waved his hand more and more irritably. When he was about to say something, suddenly his eyes suddenly He tilted his head, and soon the sound of snoring came out.
