concubines

Chapter 183
After leaving the Longde Palace, the eldest princess said to Zhou Shuxuan: "From now on, you will officially take over all the affairs, go back and rest earlier."

The emperor will not wake up again, Zhou Shuxuan will be the emperor from now on.

Zhou Shuxuan doesn't really want to rest now.Thinking of going to see Miao Li, she might have some thoughts in her heart after not seeing her for so long.Now it is impossible for the emperor to hurt her anymore, so he just went over to explain why he didn't go to see her during this time.

The funeral affairs were also done, and everyone knew that his concubine had died.Take this opportunity to take her back to the East Palace and change her identity.Now that Xu Meitang is only a princess, if he finds time to kill Xu Meitang, his queen can only be Miaoli, and no one else will do.

The emperor is about to turn into a pile of bones. What he said in the past is no longer an imperial decree. He can listen to it as he wants or not. No one can stop him from making Miaoli the queen.

Originally, it was possible for the emperor to live two more days, but it was he who had nothing to do and insisted on attacking Miao Li.Miao Li is fine, she didn't do anything wrong, why should she be buried with him.

Zhou Shuxuan replied: "Auntie, I want to visit her."

The eldest princess hesitated for a moment, thinking about what she said to Miaoli just now, the girl would probably be suspicious when she went back, so Zhou Shuxuan could go and have a look.Otherwise, Miao Li would hold everything in her heart, which would not be good for her health.

"Go, go." The eldest princess smiled and said, "She is learning embroidery recently. I saw her embroidering mandarin ducks and playing in the water during the day. I guess it was given to you, but the craftsmanship is really not very good, so you mustn't dislike it."

Zhou Shuxuan also had a smile on his lips, "Of course." As long as Miaoli made it for him, no matter how ugly it was, he would not dislike it, and he would carry it with him every day.

When we arrived at the Princess's mansion, the lights were brightly lit, and I heard the noise inside, as if there were many people talking.

What are you doing at night, the eldest princess went in with a cold face, and shouted to the crowd who kept moving around: "What are you arguing about?"

The nanny who was in charge of the mansion and the aunt who went out with Miao Li just now saw her come back and hurried up to meet her, knelt on the ground and replied: "Return to Your Highness, the servants are looking for Miss Meng, she seems to have disappeared."

"What did you say?!" Zhou Shuxuan was very anxious, bent slightly and asked.

"The servants came back from the gate of the city, and everyone got out of the car. Only Miss Meng's car was silent. The servant was worried about something, so she called the girl outside, and no one paid attention to the servant inside. Open the curtain Look, there's no one in there at all."

Zhou Shuxuan frowned, and asked the eldest princess, "How could this be?"

Ask her what's the use, and she only knows now that the person is gone.The eldest princess recalled the scene at that time, and there was no mistake in any step.There is no chance for Miao Li to leave, she can only come back properly.

The eldest princess asked: "Did everyone get in the car at that time?"

At that time, the lights were in the dark, and they were walking in a hurry. No one could see clearly whether Miaoli got into the car or not.The aunt replied honestly: "Going back to Your Highness, the servants don't know, why don't you ask the driver."

The eldest princess immediately asked the coachman to come over, and she took Zhou Shuxuan to the main hall.Still thinking about what happened just now, it seemed that he was really in a hurry to leave, and didn't confirm whether Miao Li had gotten into the car.

The coachman was guarding in the outer courtyard, and soon came in. He lay down on the ground and said, "Return to Your Highness, my servant was feeling sick at the time. I slipped aside to relieve myself. When I returned, everyone had already boarded the carriage. The servant thought Miss Meng was also on board." The car is gone, and I'll be right back."

So, he didn't know whether Miaoli got in the car or not.

Even a living person can't look down on this useless thing.The eldest princess waved her hand to the coachman annoyed, "Get out!"

The coachman just rolled away.

Although Zhou Shuxuan was anxious, he still remained calm and asked, "Auntie, what was the situation at that time?"

The eldest princess thought about it thankfully, and said: "I sent her to the gate of the city, and then I was stopped by the eunuch in the palace to see who was in the car. He blocked me with the emperor's decree. Let him check. Then Miaoli got out of the car, and after checking a few people, another sedan chair came..."

The eldest princess seemed to have been hit by something, and said solemnly: "Could it be that sedan chair... The people inside the sedan chair seem to be suffering from tuberculosis, and the people following outside are all covered with veils. Make her veiled."

The more the eldest princess talked, the more she felt that it was very possible. At that time, she said to Miao Li, "I must leave the city today."Maybe Miao Li played by ear and followed the sedan chair out.

Zhou Shuxuan asked anxiously, "Whose sedan chair is that?"

"They went out very easily. They should have greeted them in advance, and they can ask clearly when they go out and ask."

Zhou Shuxuan immediately stood up, ready to rush out.Now people don't know where they are going, so why don't they be in a hurry.

The eldest princess grabbed him and said, "I'll ask someone to ask, so don't run around. Don't send someone out to look for it, just pretend you don't know anything."

The emperor is critically ill now, so it's fine if he is not in the palace to serve the sick as the prince.Still caring about these trivial matters, it is obvious that the emperor is not in his eyes.Now is the critical juncture, nothing can be done wrong, otherwise it will leave a bad reputation in the world.

After Zhou Shuxuan was pulled for a while, he also wanted to understand this point. He was very anxious and had to calm himself down, "Then aunt, ask someone to ask."

After the eldest princess gave instructions to the people at the door, Zhou Shuxuan said: "It is not completely sure that she has left the city. If she is still in the city, I think I should search the whole city."

The eldest princess shook her head directly, "No, the emperor is still alive, and those people are still holding the emperor's imperial decree. If they knew that we were searching for her, they would definitely act quietly. No one knows her identity now, and she may be safe. Some."

That's the truth.

Zhou Shuxuan was scratching his hair anxiously now, but found that he couldn't do anything, fidgeting in the room.

He disappeared again. The last time Miao Li left, he searched all over the world but couldn't find anyone. Later, he met by fate.The moment he saw Miaoli again, what he thought in his heart was that he would never let Miaoli leave him for the rest of his life, and now he disappeared again.

"Auntie, do you think she will come back by herself?"

If she hadn't left the city, Miaoli would be helpless and might come back.

The eldest princess is not very good at answering this question now. Miao Li was very strange before, as if she already knew something.If she had left the city, she would not dare to come back. If she hadn't left the city, she would have come back if she wanted to. It is much safer here than outside.

If he didn't answer, he gave Zhou Shuxuan an answer. He was already anxious and now he was even more anxious.

He also has problems, why send people here?You can also hide it by your side.Why didn't I explain everything to her at that time, probably because I haven't seen her for so long, which made her sad.

Now Zhou Shuxuan was so anxious that his mind was in a mess and he couldn't think normally at all.

Xiaohong plans to return to the East Palace tomorrow, and is still living in the Princess Mansion.Hearing that everyone came back, I thought Miao Li would come back too.After waiting in the house for a long time, I didn't see Miao Li's shadow. I was a little puzzled, so I planned to come out to have a look.

Seeing the lights on in the main hall, she thought that Miaoli was talking to them here, so she poked her head in and took a look, as long as she saw Miaoli, she would be at ease.Stretching out her head, she didn't see Miaoli, only saw the eldest princess, and the eldest princess also saw her. Xiaohong was the person next to Miaoli. Miaoli was thinking what she should know best, so she stretched out her hand to let her in.

"Let me ask you, did your girl tell you anything before she left?"

Xiaohong didn't know what happened, but Miaoli replied honestly: "The girl gave the servant some money strangely, saying that she could use it in the future. She also said that the servant would have a child in the future, and it was her kindness. "

These are the words to say after a long time of parting. If you just go to Jinzhou, you won't be able to say these words.

Xiaohong went on to say: "Then give this handkerchief to the maidservant, and let the maidservant pass it on to the prince." Xiaohong took out the handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it over.

Zhou Shuxuan took it over. This should be the mandarin ducks playing in the water that the eldest princess said.It's really not very pretty, but if she handed it to him, he would be happy too.

"Miss has another sentence for the servant to pass on to the prince. The girl said that she originally wanted to embroider a mandarin duck and play in the water for His Highness, but the workmanship is not good, so the embroidery looks like a shrike."

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Shuxuan was very anxious, grabbed Xiaohong and said, "What happened, does she know something?"

The mandarin ducks playing in the water turned into a separation between work and swallow, and she really wanted to leave.

Xiao Hong was so frightened by him, and after thinking about it for a while, the one who was so anxious could only be... and replied: "Miss knows that the palace is holding a funeral."

Zhou Shuxuan sat back on the chair, she knew that the palace was having a funeral, and now she was sent out of the city, she must have misunderstood something.

Zhou Shuxuan was filled with remorse now, and he wrinkled his face tightly and asked, "Auntie, do you think she thinks I don't want her anymore? Why haven't I come to see her for so long!"

The eldest princess wanted to understand what was going on, and felt a chill rise up her back.Let's just say that Miaoli was weird before she set off, and she didn't even ask a question about Zhou Shuxuan, so it was like this.At this time, she didn't dare to tell Miao Li's previous performance, she was really afraid that Zhou Shuxuan would go crazy.

Zhou Shuxuan has gone crazy now, "I didn't mean that, aunt, I must find her and explain it to her."

Standing up and wanting to run outside again, this posture is estimated to take the whole country, and it is estimated that something big will happen again.He had just held a funeral for someone before, and now he is looking for another person. It's strange that the people don't talk about him.

The eldest princess grabbed him and said, "Calm down! Don't go out and cause trouble!"

"How can I be calm? She is outside alone, and her body is weak. It will be more dangerous to wait a little longer now. I don't want any reputation. I just want her to come back!"

On the official road, Miao Li was still walking along the sedan chair, and no one has discovered her existence yet.
