Chapter 573

There was a group of horses in sight, and all the people on the horse wore Dali Temple military uniforms.

Mammy was worried. She quickly put down the curtain and didn't say much. Now the four words of Dali temple can't be mentioned. My mother is bound to be flustered.

But just then, with a glance, Princess Rong had seen the line of people.

It's from Dali temple

With such an appearance, it is obvious that he was ordered to do business——

The pedestrian is heading south

Even though she hasn't been out of the palace here for some years, the place where she grew up is familiar... If she remembers correctly, Mingkang square is not far to the south!

When she left the palace, she also heard the little eunuchs say that the emperor has ordered Dali temple to take Xia Tingzhen into custody

Therefore, these people must go to Xiafu to get people at this time!

Princess Rong frowned tightly.

This Xia Shoufu didn't do anything for several days, and didn't even have the intention of trying to see the emperor - is it hard to wait to die like this?

She has been thinking carefully these days. If she is alone, she can't think of any feasible way to think about it, or she has to borrow Xia Tingzhen's strength

In the end, if it is subdivided, yuelang and the other party are now in the same boat.

But this so-called chief assistant, is that all?!

She hasn't really made up her mind how to negotiate with the other party, but the other party is going to be taken into Dali temple now!

Who knows why Xia Tingzhen has been able to stand firm in the court these years? It's easy to get the sacred heart. Once she enters Dali temple, it's hard to see the emperor again. Whatever way she can become useless... Is there room for this matter to return to the world?

It's better to ask for others than yourself. At present, Xia Tingzhen's road is obviously impassable

Rong Guifei clenched her fingers, and her eyes were full of anxiety.

Anyway, she must think of a way as soon as possible

Thinking, the carriage soon came to the door of Tonghua Hu Tongrong's house.

Hearing the letter, the Rong family hurried out to meet each other.

Imperial concubine Rong entered the courtyard under the crowd of people. She saw both familiar and strange all the way. She never came back since she entered the palace. Even some faces looked strange.

Accompanied by the people of the Rong family, she went straight to Mrs. Rong's house.

"Mother, look... It's the second sister who came back to see you!"

In front of the sick bed, uncle Rong sobbed.

The person on the bed was so thin that it was shocking. Princess Rong held her mother's dry wood like hand and burst into tears in her eyes: "mother, it's me, it's han'er..."

Mrs. Rong turned her head slightly, opened her mouth and made a sobbing sound.

Those eyes were full of turbid color. It seemed as if they were covered with a layer of yarn. It was lax and hazy. People couldn't tell where their eyes fell and whether they could see the person in front of them.

"Mother, han'er came back late..." Princess Rong burst into tears.

It was the mother who gave birth to her. Even though her mind was disturbed by other things, the grief at this time was not adulterated.

Mrs. Rong seemed to nod her head slightly, as if in response.

After a moment, Rong Guifei saw that her eyes were open but did not move any more. Like the sun sinking into the west mountain, she lost the last glimmer of brilliance.

Princess Rong suddenly mentioned in her heart: "... Mother?"

The doctor who was watching came forward to explore his pulse, sniffed, shook his head and sighed.

"Mother!"

Uncle Rong cried and knelt down.

The rest of the women's family members knelt down, and the cries were mixed in a room.

Princess Rong held the hand tightly, and tears fell one by one like broken lines.

She stayed by the bed for more than an hour.

"Han'er, your mother is holding one breath to see you for the last time. When she sees you coming, she can go safely..." master Rong raised his hand over his old wife's eyes and said to his daughter in a dumb voice, "as for your mother's future, you don't have to worry. Everything has been arranged by your two brothers."

Princess Rong's tears flashed sarcasm in her eyes.

As a son of man, do you want to take credit with her?

"You help your mother go to the wing room to have a rest for a while..." master Rong turned and ordered his daughter-in-law.

Without saying much, Rong Guifei was helped up by Mammy and left the bedroom accompanied by two sister-in-law and a sister-in-law who had just entered the door.

When she reached the curtain, she finally looked back at the hooded mother on the bed.

Mother also left

If yuelang, like his mother, wants to leave her, who else can rely on her empty heart in the world?

Princess Rong's feet were somewhat vain, her eyes were crying, and her head hurt faintly.

The younger sister-in-law held her by an arm. When the party came to the outer hall, five or six women who were wiping their tears quickly saluted.

These are the guests from the family, mostly the women of the official family who have made friends with Mrs. Rong's family. Recently, I know that Mrs. Xiaorong's family is seriously ill and will visit her every few days.

One of them, a long faced woman wearing a plain blue Ruyi button fine silk cloak, saluted and came forward to hold Princess Rong's hand: "empress, I'd like to mourn..."

Her hand was suddenly held tightly by others, and she knew that the other party was putting on this familiar appearance in front of others, but she wanted to take the opportunity to get close to her. Princess Rong felt disgust at the bottom of her heart. When she was about to take her hand back, she felt that she suddenly touched something cold between her fingers——

Exchange good books. Now pay attention to the cash red envelope!

Rong Guifei frowned slightly. When she was about to look down, she saw the woman shaking her head imperceptibly, with a reminder in her eyes.

"..." Princess Rong's eyes changed slightly.

This is the wife of the Liu family

She heard from her mother that the Liu family secretly climbed up to the Xia family two years ago

In this gap, under the cover of her wide sleeves, the woman had stuffed the thing into her hand and patted the back of her hand: "life, old age and death are inevitable. My mother must be more open."

Rong Guifei clutched the object, dropped her hand and nodded slightly.

The other women also came forward, either to comfort or to say some of the dying words of Mrs. Rong's family today. They only said that they would never leave her.

Princess Rong didn't want to deal with it more. Several sisters in law of the Rong family also looked at it and soon helped people to the wing room.

"I want to be alone. Let's go and get busy."

Rong Guifei's voice was still dumb. Several people nodded understandably, advised a little, and went out.

"I want to be alone -"

Looking at Mammy and gong'e standing aside, Princess Rong said again.

"Yes." gong'e stepped back first.

Mammy hesitated and reminded, "madam, we must go back to the palace before dark."

It was a grace for the emperor to allow the empress to leave the palace, but the concubines must not stay outside the palace for the night.

"I know. I just want to sit here for a while..."

Mammy didn't say much either, "the lady called her maid when she had something to do, and the maid stayed outside the door."

"Well..."

Mammy retreated suspiciously, closed the door of the wing room, and did not forget to turn aside to firmly close the window lattice.

Gong e took another look.

Mammy, are you afraid of the mother's cry?

I don't know the pain in Mammy's heart.

The mother has so many young moths that she is even worried that people will sneak out to rob the prison

Going out of the palace is frightening. You must keep an eye on people all the time.

Now she has completely seen through it. She can't persuade it. She can only watch it hard. When she sees that the more Pei dies, everything will be fine.

She's waiting every day for the waste man to die quickly——

My mother goes to the Little Buddha Hall every night recently. You don't have to think about it. It's to pray for the safety of that waste man.

She will go too, sooner or later.

Besides, she hasn't had any meat for days.

In terms of sincerity, the empress is not her opponent.

Imperial concubine Rong knows nothing about it. She is taking out the thing that has been hidden in her sleeve.

It was a white porcelain vase with a delicate body.

Rong Guifei pulled out the cork. The first thing she saw was a roll of stationery standing upright.

She took out the letter paper and unfolded it. The dense handwriting on it came into her eyes.

“……”

Rong Guifei's eyes fluctuated violently. Even though all the people in the room had been held back, she still looked around nervously and carefully, even on the beam.

Her every move seems to be under the control of others!

Xia Tingzhen expected that she would leave the palace because of her mother. She also knew that her mother would live in a few days, so she arranged for the lady Liu to come to the door just now

Even if she didn't leave the palace today, the other party must have another way to give her things.

The other party really knows her secret

She wasn't suspicious!

Princess Rong didn't have time to think about why the other party knew such secret things. When did she leak clues and let the other party see them in her eyes——

She was still frightened by the contents of the letter. She thought of many ways, but she never dared to have such ideas!

She also thought that Xia Tingzhen would try to solve the current dilemma, but she also didn't think that the other party dared to move

She hastily put away the letter paper and wanted to burn it. However, there was no charcoal basin in early autumn, and it was not yet time to turn the lamp. The paper was gently hidden in her sleeve for fear of accidentally falling. In fear, she had to roll it up again and put it back into the porcelain vase.

Also at this time, she saw that there were other things in the porcelain vase

Princess Rong's forehead was covered with sweat. She held the porcelain vase tightly and couldn't calm her heart for a long time.

She didn't know how long she had been sitting tight until there was a knock at the door.

The sound fell to her ears as if it had come from outside. She woke up instantly and suddenly raised her eyes. She didn't know when it was dark in the house.

"Madam, we should go back to the palace."

Mammy pushed the door in and whispered a reminder.

Go back to the palace

Rong Guifei's eyes were uncertain, nodded and said, "it's time to go back..."

After talking, he stood up with his hand on the side of the chair.

Mammy reached out to help her. During the contact, she felt that her palms were full of cold sweat. When she looked at her face, there was no blood color. Even her lips were white, and the bottom of her eyes were indistinguishable emotions——

"Empress... What's wrong with you?" asked mammy tentatively.

It would be a godsend if the grandmother could really get seriously ill at this time.

"... the palace is free, but I don't want to give up my mother."

Some things can only be known by herself.

After Rong Guifei returned to the palace, Yongfu palace quickly set up a dinner.

Looking at her sitting there without moving her chopsticks, when Mammy was about to speak a word of advice, she suddenly heard the salute voice of the palace maids outside the hall——

"See the Emperor..."

"Empress, your majesty is coming." mammy gently pushed the glorious imperial concubine who lost her soul.

The emperor is here?

Princess Rong trembled in her heart and quickly got up.

Emperor Qingming quickly came in.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you send a message here? My concubine was slow and didn't meet in time. I hope your majesty will forgive me..."

"I didn't ask them to disturb the concubine." emperor Qingming sighed slightly: "I've heard... So I came to see the concubine."

While talking, he glanced at the food on the table and saw that it was almost motionless. His tone was more distressed: "how much should be used, the body is important."

The idea that he would soon stabilize the situation gave him a little more patience - and he never lacked patience in the face of useful people.

He also needs the imperial concubine to add more princes for him.

"My concubine has no appetite, so I can't eat..." Princess Rong reluctantly pulled out a bitter smile. She knew that she was different all over at this time, but the emperor should not be suspicious of her mother's death.

"If you really can't eat it, ask someone to stew some tonics." emperor Qingming indulged in a spoiled tone, shook her hand and wanted to take her to sit down in the couch.

The moment the hand was held by the emperor, the body's reaction was faster than her thoughts. She almost subconsciously pulled her hand away.

Thinking of yuelang's situation at this time, she became more and more unbearable to have any contact with the emperor.

Emperor Qingming's eyes flashed slightly and looked at her as if he was puzzled.

Facing those eyes, Princess Rong's heart jumped wildly and hurriedly said, "my concubine wants to make a pot of tea for her majesty..."

Emperor Qingming smiled and said, "you can give these little things to the people below. Aifei should have a good rest."

He shook her hand again.

Princess Rong did not dare to break free this time.

Also at this time, she gradually calmed down.

Just for a moment, she really had the idea of "making tea" for the emperor.

Now think about it, but it's too impulsive.

Not to mention whether she can succeed, even if she does, something happens to the emperor, but what happens in her Yongfu palace, someone will doubt her later

She is not afraid of death, but she can't make wedding clothes for Xia Tingzhen in vain!

She wants Yue Lang to live, so does she.

Therefore, we must choose an opportunity to be as comprehensive as possible without leaving future troubles

"... please remember to take good care of your health. I will go to the imperial temple with you in three days."

Emperor Qingming's voice came into her ears, and imperial concubine Rong's eyes moved.

Yes, every time four Mencius sacrifice to the temple

Now it's the moon of Meng Qiu.

On the day of sacrifice, not only the concubines and concubines of the harem will go with them, but also the officials of the imperial family and the Ministry of rites and the ministers above the third grade

At that time, many people are mixed, and she follows the emperor closely. She is not afraid that she can't find a chance!

Xia Tingzhen has this arrangement, so she won't easily plead guilty before she can't wait for her action... Yuelang can wait for a few days.

Princess Rong made up her mind, nodded and said, "don't worry, your majesty..."

Three days later

She will go.
