Qing Palace - Biography of Concubine Wan

Chapter 31 The rain is coming (2)

"Sister!" Rixi also found Qingru, ran over and hugged her without saying anything, just kept crying.At this moment, she was like a child lost in the street at midnight, finally found her lost relatives, crying so thoroughly and relaxed.

"Sister, it's dark and cold here, there are rats and cockroaches, it's scary, I don't want to stay here anymore, you take me out, sister, I beg you!" She begged bitterly, but it didn't help It's useless, because she no longer has the ability to tell.

Qingru could clearly feel the fear and helplessness of Rixi, her petite body was trembling in her arms, although she entered the palace as a concubine, she was only 16 years old after all, and she grew up The official family was raised in a deep boudoir, and was regarded as a jewel in the palm of her hand since she was a child. She was loved all the time and never encountered any hardships. Now that she has undergone such drastic changes, one can imagine the blow she has suffered.

Qing Ru patted her on the back, and when she had almost cried enough, she asked, "Ri Xi, tell sister what's going on, why are you pushing Shu Chang Zai when you're so good?"

Hearing this, Rixi's reaction was unexpectedly fierce, she pushed Qingru away forcefully, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "I didn't, I didn't push her! Why don't you all believe me, Tong The concubine is like this, the emperor is like this, and now even you are like this, I don't want a sister like you! You go, you go, let me die here alone!" Those bright eyes were swollen like walnuts, and inside Filled with infinite grievances and anger after being wronged.

"Stupid girl, how could my sister not believe you? It's just that all the evidence dramas are now pointing the finger at you. You are in a very disadvantageous situation. What's the use of trusting you alone? If I don't believe you today and don't care about you, Why bother to take the risk to see you!" Seeing that Rixi had misunderstood her meaning, Qingru hurriedly explained.

"Hey, don't cry. I've already asked Elder Sister Yin to beg the imperial concubine. Besides, the emperor likes you so much on weekdays. He must be reluctant to punish you severely. He will let you out after a few days at most. Don't cry!" The veil inside was already soaked by Rixi's tears, but those tears were like a river that broke its embankment, and couldn't stop no matter what.

"The emperor is angry with me, he won't forgive me anymore, no...otherwise he wouldn't say that!" Ri Xi said in a daze, slipping slowly with his back along the cold wall, and finally fell powerlessly. Sitting down on the ground, his thin arms hugged him tightly, trying to absorb the last drop of warmth.

"What did the emperor say?" Qing Ru squatted down, and tried to slow down her tone, fearing that it would be provocative again.

"The emperor said... said... that he misjudged me. I used to pretend to be deceptive. He said that I am not worthy, not worthy of being his woman!" I curled up together, still unable to stop the feeling. Coldness, it's really cold. Every time she felt cold in the past, the emperor would hug her and give her the warmth she longed for. Maybe she will never have such a chance in the future.

Qingru embraced Rixi with infinite sympathy, hoping to relieve the chill in her heart with her body temperature. Rixi's current appearance is very similar to that of the concubine in the cold palace. Could it be said that Rixi will end up like her in the future? end?Thinking of this, Qingru couldn't help but shudder, no!She can't let her sister become a lunatic like Xie Yu, absolutely not!
She held up Rixi's face buried in her knees and forced her to look into her eyes: "Rixi, listen, I want you to tell me everything you see and know, don't hide anything, trust me , as long as you are wronged, my sister will definitely try to get rid of this crime for you!"

The confused Rixi seemed to hear a glimmer of hope from Qingru's words. Although it was so slim, she still carefully recalled what happened not long ago according to Qingru's intention.

"At that time, I followed that court lady to the Langfang, and she said that she would go in and report to Shu Heng, and asked me to wait outside.

"Wait!" Qing Ru interrupted Ri Xi's words as soon as she heard a sentence, and asked in puzzlement: "Shu Chang's position is below yours, and she asked someone to invite you on her own initiative, why bother?" How about reporting first?"

"I also thought it was strange at the time, but the maid said that Shu Chang had ordered it in advance, and she didn't know why, so even though I was unhappy, I let her go in to report first, but after a long time, nothing happened. Seeing her come out, when I was impatient to wait and was about to leave, I suddenly heard the sound of something falling to the ground from inside. I felt strange, so I called a few times, but no one answered, but there was clearly a sound inside. Later I went to push the door again, the door was not locked, it opened as soon as I pushed it, I went in and saw... I saw Shu Chang in her...she..."

"Don't worry, speak slowly!" Qingru saw that Rixi's mood fluctuated greatly, and her expression gradually showed panic.

Ri Xi calmed down, and said with difficulty: "I saw Shu Chang lying on the ground, the ground was covered with blood, so much, it was so scary! She didn't move, as if she was dead, I was so scared at that time, sister, you know Why, I'm so scared!" As she spoke, she became excited again, her hands tightly clutching Qingru's skirt, with such force that her finger bones turned white.

"I know, I know, don't be afraid!" Qingru let Rixi lean into her arms, patted her stiff body until she relaxed: "What happened next?"

"Later, when Shu Changzai woke up, she saw the blood she was bleeding and screamed, thinking that I pushed her, and then...Concubine Tong and the others came in, sister...what do you think will happen to me? , will you die? Sister, you want to save me, I don’t want to die, I really don’t want to!”

"No, you are still so young, how could you die, my sister will definitely rescue you!" Qingru's guarantee is so weak, yes, what qualifications and ability does she have to promise Rixi? .

"Think about it again, you were the first to go in, did you see anything special in the Langfang at that time, think about it, maybe it will be useful!"

"Special?" Ri Xi struggled to recall as he said, and said while recalling: "After I went in, I seemed to see a figure flashing behind the curtain next door, but when I opened the curtain, he had already passed through the other door. The door is out."

"Have you seen what he looks like?"

"No, I didn't catch up with him, I only saw a figure from behind, very resembling the maid who called me here!"

It was that maid again, it seemed that she was really a key person, as long as she was found, the matter would be clear, as long as she was in the palace, she could always be found.

"Is there anything else?"

"Also... Rixi frowned and it was hard to think about it. After all, in such a scene, how could she have the time to pay attention to the surrounding situation? Suddenly her eyes lit up and said: "Ah, I remembered, I once lived on the ground. A folding fan made of agarwood, with a South Sea pearl the size of a cat's eye hanging from the handle.
