Chapter 2

Qinghe was completely startled, opened his mouth wide, and was unable to speak for a long time.

Mother?Su Guiren is her mother?what happened?
She met Su Guiren once before, when she entered the palace to accompany her ancestors, it happened that Su Guiren was punished by the queen and knelt outside the queen's bedroom. It is said that she knelt for three hours in a row. The nanny in the middle dared to scold her.

She knew that Su Guiren was originally a sweeping maid in the Queen's Palace, and because she was favored by the emperor, she was favored all night. Originally, it was common for court ladies to be favored in the palace, so it was fine to give some rewards afterwards.

But this nobleman Su is very lucky. She became pregnant after being favored this night, and gave birth to a daughter nine months later. She was also promoted to the status of talented person. Later, as the princess grew up, She was just named a nobleman, but she came from a lowly background. The status of this nobleman is probably her highest honor.

And the princess she gave birth to, Li Yi'er, was conferred the title of Princess Yili. This title was only obtained the year before last. It can be seen how miserable the mother and daughter lived in the harem.

"Quick, bring the bronze mirror!" Qinghe propped up half of his body, and hurriedly ordered the maid beside him.

Xiao Zui hurriedly went to get the bronze mirror, held it to illuminate Qinghe, and said worriedly: "Princess, don't worry, your face is not damaged."

Qinghe stared blankly at the pale girl's face in the mirror, feeling horrified in her heart. She had seen Princess Yili twice, so she naturally knew what she looked like.

The face in the mirror is none other than the unfavorable Princess Yili.

She covered her face and trembled slightly. What went wrong?She should have died in the hands of Li Xiangyu and Yuan Su, how could she become Princess Yili?
Xuan'er, she suddenly thought of her son, that poor son, probably died tragically at the hands of Yuan Su now.

She resisted the heartache like a knife, and slowly let go of her hands, her eyes suddenly burst out with hatred, "Is today the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Xiao Zhuan replied: "Princess, you have been in a coma for two nights, and it is already the seventh day of the lunar new year."

On the seventh day of the seventh day, that is to say, Qinghe has been dead for two days.

"Is there a funeral going on in General Yuan's mansion?" Qinghe asked Xiaozheng with a breath of cold air.

Xiao Zuo was taken aback for a moment, "How did the princess know that? I did hear from Eunuch Wen yesterday that Princess Qinghe died of a sudden illness. Not only Princess Qinghe, but also Young Master Yuan Xiao fell from the stone steps because of excessive grief. After I came here, I became demented, and I didn’t recognize anyone, it’s really pitiful.”

Qinghe's heart skipped a beat, Xuan'er is not dead?Will Yuan Su let him go?Even if Yuan Su is willing to let him go, that poisonous woman Li Xiangyu might not be willing to let him go.

No, she must quickly rescue Xuan'er, otherwise, Xuan'er will be in danger again.

"Wait for me to change clothes, I'm going to Yuanda General's Mansion!" Qing He struggled to get out of bed, but unexpectedly a burst of dizziness hit her, and she collapsed on the ground.

Su Guiren and Xiaozhu hurriedly helped her up, and Su Guiren asked: "Yi'er, what are you going to do at the General Yuan's Mansion? Besides, your father ordered a foot restraint, and now you cannot leave Suhe Palace."

It was only then that Qinghe remembered what Su Guiren said just now, she was going to Beimo to get married?
She calmed down and remembered that she had heard a few days ago that in order to reach peace with Bei Mo, the Mobei envoy came to propose marriage.

It seems that the emperor sent this Li Yi'er to marry him.

As an unfavored princess, Li Yier's fate is tragic.

Beimo is thousands of miles away from Kyoto, where the people are tough and barbaric. During the reign of the first emperor, there were two princesses who were sent to be married, but they were tormented to death within a year of their marriage. When they died, they were only 17 years old.

No wonder this Li Yi'er wanted to seek death, it was better to die in her own country than in a foreign country.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a voice outside the hall, "Concubine Shang Gui has arrived, Princess Xiaoru has arrived!"

Su Guiren's expression changed, and he hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Concubine Shang Gui is the main seat of Suhe Palace, in Suhe Palace, Concubine Shang Gui is the most respected.

"I've seen your concubine!" Su Guiren greeted her with a salute.

Concubine Shang Gui gave Su Guiren a flat look, and said, "I heard from the imperial doctor that she is fine, isn't it?"

Su Guiren has always been humble, even in front of concubines who are of the same rank as her or lower than her, she is submissive, let alone in front of concubines Shang Gui.

She replied anxiously: "Go back to your concubine, Yi'er is awake, but she is still not well."

A face came out from behind Concubine Shang Gui, her pink face was covered with frost, her brows and eyes were full of disdain, and she snorted heavily, "If you are not healthy, you will take care of it, the father has already opened the golden mouth, she is the one who will die." Yes, the corpse has to be put on the sedan chair."

It was Shang Gui's daughter Princess Xiaoru who was speaking, she was only three days older than Li Yi'er.

Although they were born in the same year and the same month, the fate of the two is very different.

Concubine Shang's father was Minister of the Ministry of War, and her elder brother was named a general, and the emperor had intended to promote her to the position before. The posture of the concubine.

After hearing Princess Xiaoru's words, Su Guiren's face changed slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything, he just backed away nonchalantly, and welcomed the two of them in.

Princess Xiaoru walked in front of Qinghe, stared at her coldly with frosty eyes, and snorted, "You look fine, it seems that you can report back to the emperor, and you can go to Beimo with the envoy in a few days."

Qinghe had met Princess Xiaoru before, and knew that she was savage and willful, but did not know that she was so cold and cruel. After all, Li Yier was also her younger sister.

Su Guiren was afraid that his daughter would offend Princess Xiaoru and Shang Guifei, so he hurriedly said: "Yi'er, hurry up and see your concubine."

Concubine Shang Gui sat on the chair in front of the bed, raised her eyes lightly, and stretched out her hand to stop her, "Lie down, you don't have to see outsiders in front of me, don't turn around and salute and fall, I'm in front of the emperor , but I really can’t speak clearly.”

In a few words, the gun with the stick clearly refers to Li Yi'er's use of various methods to avoid the marriage.

Qinghe hadn't figured out the situation yet, so she didn't want to easily offend Concubine Shang Gui, she lowered her head and raised her eyebrows, and said softly, "Thank you for your compassion."

Concubine Shang Guihe chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm on her face, "What's the matter? Knowing that I'm about to become Beimo's concubine, you don't even want to call out Concubine Shangmu?"

Qinghe was startled, and then remembered the rules in the palace, the noble concubine Shang was the head of the Suhe Palace, according to the ancestral system, Li Yi'er should call her the concubine Shangmu.

It's really ironic, the one who gave birth to me can't be called a concubine mother, but can only be called a nobleman, but this woman who always makes things difficult, I want to respect her as concubine mother.

"Yi'er made a slip of the tongue, and my mother and concubine forgive me!" Qinghe said submissively.

There is nothing to be afraid of in front of this mother and daughter who are arrogant and domineering, but she is determined not to go to Beimo with her relatives. She has not avenged her vengeance, and she still has her son to save, so she cannot leave the capital.

Shang Gui concubine hummed coldly, "If you are sensible, you should obey your father's arrangement. You will be a concubine after all if you marry in Beimo, which is better than being here, but if you are not sensible, you will hurt yourself. Palace, then this Palace will never forgive you lightly."

The last sentence carried a strong sense of threat, and she expected to see the frightened look on Li Yi'er's face.

However, Li Yi'er's expression was very calm, she just nodded submissively: "Thank you for the teachings of Concubine Shang, Yi'er will keep it in mind."
