The Empress Dowager

Chapter 604

After driving for half a month, the carriage finally arrived at Jiuli.

Murong Yu led the soldiers directly to help Murong Xuan, while Nangong Yue returned to King Jing's Mansion in a carriage.

The carriage stopped slowly, and Dongmei and Xiaoju hurried over to help Nangong Yue get off the carriage.

"Miss, you are back, and you want to die as a servant." Dongmei said.

"Yes, miss, this servant thinks you've been away for a long time!" Xiaoju echoed.

"What do you want to eat, Miss? Let the servants make it?" Dongmei asked.

"Nothing special, just the same as before."

Dongmei responded, and helped Nangong Yue walk towards Qingxin Hall.

Dongmei supported Nangong Yue to sit on the soft couch, then turned around and poured a cup of tea for Nangong Yue.

Nangong Yue took the teacup and drank it slowly.

"Miss, the hot water is ready, are you taking a bath now?" Xiaoju asked.

"Bath." Nangong Yue said, putting the tea cup in her hand on the small table beside her.

Xiaoju responded, and quickly retreated, ordering the maids to come in with water.

Dongmei put the clothes that Nangong Yue wanted to change into inside the screen, and then walked out.

"Dongmei, has anything happened in Beijing recently?" Nangong Yue asked.

Dongmei's footsteps paused, a strange look flashed across her black eyes, and she quickly disappeared, saying, "Miss, Third Miss is dead."

When Nangong Yue heard the words, she was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize: "Dongmei, you are kidding me, right? Didn't the fifth prince treat Sanmei well? Why did you die?"

"Miss, Miss San was pregnant, and she slipped her baby while walking. Miss San blamed herself very much, so she committed suicide by taking poison."

Nangong Yue frowned. Given Nangong Qi's personality, it was impossible for her to commit suicide because of a slippery tire. There must be something tricky about it.

"Who did you listen to?"

"It's said by the people of Prince Qin's Mansion," Dongmei said.

Nangong Yue nodded, Nangong Qi regretted her life very much, how could she commit suicide?Presumably Nangong Qi was victimized in the Prince Qin's Mansion, and the Prince Qin's Mansion made up such a set of lies for the sake of face.

However, this matter cannot withstand scrutiny. After all, in ancient times, it was normal for women to have a slippery tire when they were pregnant. Most women passed away after a few days of sadness, and there were really no suicides for their children. several.

For some reason, it suddenly occurred to Nangong Yue that in Nangong Jian's study, she ran into a picture of Nangong Lin and Murong Yuan having an affair. Could it be that Nangong Qi also bumped into it?

If Nangong Qi really ran into her, a miscarriage would be inevitable, but it would not be life-threatening.

Could it be that Nangong Qi was murdered when he heard Murong Yuan's secret?

Nangong Yue thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any results.

At this moment, two little maidservants came in carrying hot water, poured the hot water into a large bucket, sprinkled the petals, and then retreated.

"Miss, this servant will help you change your clothes." Dongmei said.

"No, you go down!" Nangong Yue waved to Dongmei, signaling Dongmei to go down.

"Yes, Miss." Dongmei didn't say much. This is Nangong Yue's habit. Sometimes Nangong Yue asks her to help her change clothes, but most of the time, Nangong Yue changes her clothes by herself.

Nangong Yue got off the soft couch, walked slowly behind the screen, took off her clothes one by one, tested the water temperature with her hands, the temperature was just right, and then stepped in.

Nangong Yue took a bath in the vat comfortably, and after a while, she took a bath and lay down on the edge of the vat for a short rest.

"Miss, the meal is ready, do you want to eat now?" Xiaoju's voice came, Nangong Yue slowly opened her eyes, her red lips parted slightly: "Bring it in!"

"Yes." Xiaoju replied, and went out to order the servant girl to bring in the food.

Nangong Yue got out of the bathtub, took the soft cloth hanging on the screen to dry her body, quickly put on her long skirt, and walked out.
