Complete Harem Raiders

Chapter 98

On June 23, the ninth year of Qi Guozhen Yu, Empress Ji Ningshu passed away at the age of 27.

When Gu Jingchan heard the news, she was taken aback for a moment, she fell to the ground and passed out without even shedding a single tear.

The death of the queen is not a small matter whether it is in the previous dynasty or in the latter.

The emperor Chu Mingyou decreed that the whole country should observe the mourning. During the national mourning, the common people would suspend red events, move house, and go to school.The members of the royal family, including those in the royal family, wear mourning clothes for 49 days, and concubines in the harem must go to Fengyi Palace to bow down every day.

When Gu Jingchan woke up, the sky was already groggy, she couldn't help frowning as she looked at the dim yellow color outside the window.Since she entered the palace, the person who has been taking care of her and protecting her is no longer there, her cousin...

Biqin waited beside Gu Jingchan, and when she saw Gu Jingchan woke up with a look of joy on her face, she also let go of her heart and said, "Your Majesty, you have woken up. You have been in a coma all day and night."

Gu Jingchan looked at Biqin, saw her frowning with fatigue and said, "It's been so long? Where's Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty is in Fengyi Palace! He said that he will watch the spirit of the Empress for three days. Do you know that your fainting frightened Your Majesty." Seeing her empress woke up, Bi Qin hurriedly explained where the emperor was.Suddenly thought of something and continued: "I want Sun Shifang to inform His Majesty. You have been in a coma for a day and a night, but His Majesty is too worried."

Gu Jingchan nodded slightly, she felt very tired, looked at Biqin frowning, and felt something was wrong, so she asked, "But what happened?"

"No, empress, you just need to rest well." Biqin's eyes flickered, she didn't want to tell her empress about the bad things, now her body just needs to rest well, this more than anything else.

Gu Jingchan could see it.Biqin has something to hide from her, and it's definitely not a small matter.She looked at Biqin quietly and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"

Biqin was not afraid of Gu Jingchan's anger, but she knew from her tone that she would not give up until she achieved her goal, so she had no choice but to say: "After you passed out, His Majesty took you back to Yuqing Palace. Hearing rumors in the palace that you killed the empress, the emperor sent those gossiping maids to the Department of Punishment in anger. After such a toss, many people were involved. And you, empress..."

"What's wrong with me?" Gu Jingchan frowned, thinking: She knew it would happen, how could those women let go of such a wonderful opportunity?

"Your Majesty, you have been poisoned. Ru Ronghua said it is Miaogu's specialty blood-eating fragrance. This kind of fragrance can be slowly inhaled into the lungs between breaths, and a little bit of it will make people's blood loss. You are because of two days I was too worried and too worried to be able to bear the fainting, and I was lucky because of this, so I found out. Ru Ronghua said that you need to take good care of yourself these days, otherwise you will not be able to replenish your blood, which will be very bad for the future." Bi While talking, Qin went to pour Gu Jingchan a glass of water, and spoke patiently.

Gu Jingchan shook her head and smiled wryly, "I never thought there would be such a thing in the side hall of the dignified empress." After speaking, she seemed to think of something and asked, "Has Ru Cao checked the pulse of His Majesty and the Empress Dowager?"

"All of them. But you are weaker than His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, so you were discovered. Otherwise..." Biqin felt terrified after thinking about it for a while, if this kind of spice lurked in her body...

Gu Jingchan pursed her lips and remained silent.It seems that the poisoner's methods are cruel enough!The queen's body is weak, and if she smells this poisonous spice every day, even if she is lucky enough to last until she gives birth, she will definitely collapse... If a person who is already weak in energy and blood collapses... Haha, it seems that the person's methods are sinister enough.

And Chu Mingyou sat alone in the queen's bedroom, feeling sad alone.He never imagined that his queen and the person next to his pillow would be consumed with life little by little like this.

He summoned Rucao to inquire carefully. Gu Jingchan's body was weak, and the air in the small Buddhist hall in the side hall was blocked, so she knelt for another day and night before she passed out or she wouldn't be able to find out.As for the queen, she was pregnant in October, even if the medicine was given recently, it was the cause of the queen's blood collapse.

Chu Mingyou felt angry when he thought of the queen's tragic death because of other people's cruel methods.He originally thought that the queen's poor health was due to her old injuries, but he didn't expect that his queen was harmed in this way, and it took so long that he didn't even know it.

The emperor felt a little guilty when he thought about it. At the beginning, he was only because Zhan Luanxi was assassinated because someone was jealous of her being favored. At that time, he made a decree to protect her, and there was no thorough investigation of the whole palace. If... eh...

Chu Mingyou was absolutely calm at this time, and he had heard the news yesterday.Sure enough, those concubines were really dishonest, spreading rumors about Gu Jingchan hurting the queen.Now that the queen passed away three days ago, is the harem so restless?Sure enough, they are all idle, and it is uncomfortable to be idle.

It's not that he hasn't checked who sent the news, it's just that the location made Chu Mingyou think about it.Nuanyu Palace, Concubine De... If someone else, Chu Mingyou, would have believed it seriously, but Concubine Mulan... absolutely impossible.That woman is smart, she won't participate in this kind of thing, hurt Gu Jingchan, it is indeed in her interest to defeat Gu Jingchan now.But who would have thought that the biggest beneficiary would be her?At that time, she won't get any benefits, so he still believes in this woman.

He ordered his confidants to conduct a thorough investigation, but within one night, he had already found out who was behind the trouble.Looking at the list, Chu Mingyou's face turned dark instantly.

Tian Xintian! ! !
It turned out to be her.This woman turned out to be restless. He didn't pursue the matter of torturing the maid to death before, but now he hurt Gu Jingchan again?What good does it do her?
Chu Mingyou was angry, really angry, he really wanted to bite Tian Xintian's tongue right now, and then send her to Xinzheku to be a low-level slave.But now it is the time of the Queen's funeral, and nothing can happen in the palace.After all, the common people and all the officials are watching, so it's better not to go wrong during the national mourning period.

Annoyed Chu Mingyou, Tian Xintian's end must be bad.He had already thought about her end, and was waiting for Tian Xintian's death as soon as the queen's funeral was over.

However, Tian Xintian felt that the news about the harem was not messy enough. Although several maids were beaten to death, the claim was that the Queen's illness was delayed, while Gu Jingchan was still recuperating in Yuqing Palace, still serving by her side. There are a lot of people here, and the emperor will take time to visit her, which makes Tian Xintian very uncomfortable.

She thought the empress was dead, so she put this basin of dirty water on Gu Jingchan's head and slandered Gu Jingchan with words. The emperor loves the empress so much, he will definitely ask Gu Jingchan for guilt.When Gu Jingchan was abolished, she would spread the news to Concubine De, saying that it was Concubine De's fault, and that the two concubines were dismounted, and the little people after that would not be feared.

But everything was different from what she thought, and the emperor was not angry.How could the emperor not be angry?How can it be?Tian Xintian felt dissatisfied, and she didn't believe it anymore. The emperor protected Gu Jingchan so much. If...if she cried in front of the queen, and said these words in front of all the concubines...Hmph, let the emperor you No matter how much you love her, you can't keep Gu Jingchan.

The next day after Gu Jingchan woke up, she went to Fengyi Palace to kowtow to the queen.To her, the queen is not only the relationship between the queen and the concubine, she is also her cousin.The coffin has not been sealed yet, Gu Jingchan looked at the still-looking queen in the coffin, and couldn't help crying.

It's not that the emperor didn't tell her that her cousin, the queen, at the last moment of her life, begged the emperor to protect herself, protect herself, and love her.She really felt so ashamed, the queen had been taking care of her for several years, but she had done nothing, she... was really sad.

Chu Mingyou looked at her hand holding the coffin, trembling a little. Seeing her tears rolling down drop by drop, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken and hugged Gu Jingchan to comfort him, saying, "Cry if you feel uncomfortable. Weep silently like this, the queen will see It won't be good."

"But I don't want to disturb the tranquility of my cousin. She likes to be quiet, and it is disrespectful to her to cry and wipe away her tears by her side." Gu Jingchan looked at the man beside her, wearing a black robe, with a stern face He shook his head and refused.

Chu Mingyou also sighed, and he thought so too.Therefore, every concubine who came to cry for spirits was required to kowtow one by one outside the hall, and not to make a sound when entering the inner hall, so as not to disturb the souls of the dead.

Gu Jingchan stood in the hall, just quietly looking at the queen's face in a daze, as if the beauty in the coffin had never passed away, as if she would get up again, pinching her face and cursing with a smile: "Why are you frowning at such a young age? I am not afraid of getting wrinkles."

The concubine who came to kowtow to the queen said nothing.Because they all knew that Gu Jingchan was the queen's cousin, so she was naturally different from them.They are cousins ​​after all...

Obviously, most of the concubines have hearts. After all, no matter how sad they are, there are only two of them, Gu Jingchan and Chu Mingyou.Who can be more sad than these two?One lost his wife, one lost his sister.

But Tian Xintian is very confident.She has always been doted on by the emperor with her soft and lovely nature.She must have acted so differently, had to... this was her best chance.

Therefore, Tian Xintian was dressed in a white coarse linen dress, her hair was casually tied up in a single bun, and she wore a broken chrysanthemum silk flower on her hair. When she walked in, her eyes were red and swollen with a sad face.Compared to Gu Jingchan standing quietly next to the coffin, she is more like a dead sister, or a real sister.

When Tian Xintian burst into tears, Gu Jingchan's face turned dark.What is she here for?Didn't Chu Mingyou expressly prohibit the concubine from making any noise?How dare she!

Tian Xintian ignored Gu Jingchan, and even said that she completely ignored Gu Jingchan, and cried out loudly: "Empress Empress! My concubine came to see you!! Why did you leave the little prince and leave? Ah!! You are so young!!"

After the concubines came to kowtow, they all retreated into the yard to keep watch for the queen.Naturally, the sound of the inner hall could also be heard. Tian Xintian's voice made all the concubines present turn pale. Is Tian Xintian crazy?
Gu Jingchan was so angry that her complexion was snow-white, she pointed at Tian Xintian and her hands trembled, she was so dazed that she couldn't speak.

However, it fueled Tian Xintian's arrogance even more, and she screamed again: "My lady! My queen lady! You died so badly! You value sisterhood so much, how do you know that she is People who are as poisonous as snakes and scorpions, open your eyes and see. Your sister is actually..."

Gu Jingchan was panting heavily, while Concubine De knelt aside, she immediately gave Tian Xintian a look, and quickly said to the nuns: "If you don't drag it out, how rude it is to make a fuss in Fengyi Palace."

Tian Xintian was still howling, and a few old maids came up and gagged their mouths with handkerchiefs and escorted them into the side hall.

Gu Jingchan's face was full of tears, she hated it so much, Tian Xintian, since you committed suicide like this, I, Gu Jingchan, don't mind sending you to die.

And when the emperor, who had been exempted from court for three days, went to the hall again to preside over the government and prepare for the queen's funeral, Chu Mingyou's ears had already heard Tian Xintian's riot in Fengyi Palace.And immediately Chu Mingyou's complexion turned black, and he shot Tian Mian with cold and stern eyes.The eyes were full of viciousness, and he said coldly: "Tian Mian, your family education is very good, you have taught a good daughter, how dare you act wild in Fengyi Palace?"

Tian Mian suddenly broke out in cold sweat, and quickly knelt on the ground to apologize.

It's a pity that everyone could see the anger in the emperor's eyes, and they all fell into trouble one after another, and Tian Mian's previous actions were all exposed.

Chu Mingyou, who originally wanted to move Tian Mian, directly took off Tian Mian's top hat and waited for the judgment.

However, Tian Xintian's end will naturally not be miserable.
