Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 260 The Death of the Princess (5)
—Kangdang—

The queen's right hand hammered heavily on the square table, and the cup fell to the ground. The sharp and cold fragments pierced into her pupils one by one.

Ling Xihan thought about it, and looked at the queen with some concern.

"You—" the Queen's voice trembled, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

The concubine smiled, and said quietly: "Miss, you didn't think of it. Actually, I didn't kill her, and you are also responsible for it."

"Mother!" Ling Hong was shocked.King Zhongyi's face had already turned cold, but the queen stopped him from getting angry.

"go on."

The concubine's eyes fell faintly on King Zhongyi's disgusted eyes, and she felt a pain in her heart, and she smiled softly.

"As Miss said, Leng Yunshang has strong martial arts skills and is not a stupid person. After a long time, she can naturally guess that I poisoned her." She raised her head and looked at the queen calmly. "Miss, do you still remember? When you lived alone in Fengqi Palace for two years, after reuniting with the emperor, she never stepped into the palace again."

The queen was startled, her expression shocked.

"Could it be..."

"Yes" the princess kept smiling, and her gaze swept across Zhongyi Wang Qingjun's face again. "Miss is puzzled, why is she willing to die at my hands?"

The queen pursed her lips tightly and did not speak.

The concubine said again: "Because she is like me, falling in love with a man who will never love her." Her expression was gloomy and sluggish, as if she had aged ten years in an instant.

"After so many years, she is tired and doesn't want to fight anymore. She envies you just like me, but she doesn't envy you at all." The corners of her mouth curled slightly, her eyes were blurred and disillusioned. "She can't get happiness, but you are very happy. It's rare for the emperor to be single-minded to you. Leng Yunshang, hehe, sometimes she is really stupid and honest. Seeing you have conflicts with the emperor, she doesn't want to see Now that you and the emperor's loving couple have broken up, she wants to help you keep your happiness." As the princess spoke, tears fell down unexpectedly.

The queen was shocked physically and mentally, and looked at the princess in a daze.Then he turned his eyes to King Zhongyi who was silent with his head down, as if he understood something, he smiled wryly.

The concubine looked at King Zhongyi again, "You two really look alike, my lord!"

Zhongyi Wang was shocked, and for the first time he looked at his first wife, with desolate and complicated eyes.After being married for many years, he naturally knew that his wife had a deep heart, but he never knew that she also had a delicate heart.

"When she found out that I poisoned her, she didn't expose me." The princess looked far away, as if she had returned to that stormy night many years ago.That night, it rained heavily, and thunder and lightning were frightening.She heard that Leng Yunshang was infected with the wind and cold, so she went to visit the sick alone.

Yunmengju is the most gorgeous pavilion in the entire palace, and it is many times more exquisite than her Qingxin Pavilion.Beautiful trees are verdant, exotic flowers are in full bloom, and a clear stream flows from the depths of the flowers and trees under the crevices of the rocks.After a few more steps, it gradually goes north, flat and wide, with flying buildings on both sides inserted into the air, carved and embroidered sills, all hidden among the trees in the depression.Looking down, you can see the green river flowing down the jade, the stone platform piercing the clouds, the white stone as a fence, surrounding the pond, the stone bridge and three ports, and the beast face.

The entrance is a winding corridor, and the stones under the steps form a long road.There are two or three small houses above, one is bright and the other is dark, and inside are beds and chairs built together.There is another small door from the inner room, and the backyard is where there are large pear blossoms, plantains and a plum blossom forest.Every year at the end of winter, withstood the test of wind, snow and severe cold, the plum blossoms are in bud. In early spring and February, the earth has not yet fully recovered, but the plum blossoms are in full bloom. The branches are covered with red buds and green calyx. , refreshing.Among the plum trees, a flower path paved with Xinbai stone meanders to the front of the building. The small building is built of white stone. Green climbing vines hang from the balcony on the second floor. The curved corridor fence on the ground floor is accompanied by begonias and peaches. , the window sills of the ice-flake lattice windows are painted light blue, and the tissue paper pasted on the windows is as white as snowflakes. Looking from a distance, it looks as elegant as a fairyland.

The inner room is even more elegant and magnificent. The doors, bars and windows are all finely carved with fresh patterns, without vermillion powder coating.Looking left and right, they are all snow-white powder walls, and the tiger skin stones below are built according to the situation, and they are not gorgeous and conventional.The tables and chairs carved out of fine sandalwood are engraved with different patterns in detail, and the delicate and gentle feeling of belonging to the daughter's home circulates everywhere.Near the bamboo window, there are a few pieces of rice paper on the rosewood table, a few brushes on the inkstone, and a few budding chrysanthemums on the rice paper. The delicate brushwork seems to declare that the owner of the boudoir is also sentimental. .What is hung on the bamboo window is purple tulle, which flutters with the wind blowing slowly outside the window.

Behind the red sandalwood carved begonia embroidered screen, the brocade tent with fretwork patterns swayed in the wind, and a graceful and graceful woman was sitting on the sandalwood carved dripping water.She has a clear and beautiful face, only wearing a white silk bamboo leaf jacket with a stand-up collar, her hair hanging down on the cloud silk quilt, she looks a little lonely.Her face was slightly pale, but it did not affect her beauty in the slightest.On the contrary, it adds a kind of weak and morbid beauty, which makes people feel pitiful.

She stood at the door, looking at the woman sitting on the bed blankly through the bead curtain.Then, slowly walked in.

The woman seemed to hear the voice, and raised her eyes lightly.

"You're still here." The tone was very flat, as if she was expected to come at this time.

The concubine was slightly surprised, and sat calmly on the red sandalwood chair carved with green luan peony balls, picked up the blue and white porcelain medicine bowl on the table, and stirred the medicine juice with a spoon to cool it down.

"Sister, the medicine is cold, you can drink it." She looked at Leng Yunshang on the bed with a kind smile on her face.

Leng Yunshang looked at her quietly, and suddenly smiled.

"This is the last dose of poison."

The concubine's pupils shrank, but her face remained unchanged.

"What is my sister talking about? I don't understand my sister. Could it be that someone poisoned my sister's soup?"

Leng Yunshang suppressed her smile, but looked at the princess in front of her with some pity.Fresh water red double-breasted brocade dresses embroidered with symmetrical honeysuckle patterns trimmed with silver thread, and bright red long skirts embroidered with blue cloud pattern, passionflower and peacock pattern, with a slightly open neckline reflecting the pink stand-up collar jacket underneath.There is a large bun on the head, and the magnolia flying butterfly wobble carved from Hetian jade is inserted obliquely in the bun, and the Ruyi hairpin inlaid with pearls is jasper.The temples are adorned with gold chrysanthemums studded with red rubies.The face is delicate and charming, and the expression is dignified and generous.From top to bottom, the whole person exudes graceful and luxurious beauty.

She sighed softly, "You took all my maids away, and the princess doesn't need to act in front of me. I know that you poisoned my diet, and I have recently contracted a cold, which is why I can't get sick .” Her eyes were clear and flat, and she even had a hint of a smile. "Princess, don't be in a hurry to deny it. Leng Yunshang has been in the world for many years. Although you have been secretive, I am not a young lady who knows nothing. I have already noticed that I am poisoned to death."
