Xue Yao frowned, "Who is that mysterious man, do you know?"

"I don't know, he's covering his face, I can't tell who he is at all."

Another abandoned pawn, not even qualified as a witness.

Xue Yao turned his head and asked Jing Yi, "Your Highness, should we hand over Zhuqiu to the emperor?"

In that case, at least the emperor would know that Chen Guifei had no complaints against him.

But Jing Yi no longer counted on the father, and shook his head,

"No need, it doesn't matter if you have this letter or not. Anyway, my mother and concubine are already dead. Even if they are buried in the imperial tomb, they will not come back to life. He didn't care about my mother and concubine when she was alive, and she doesn't need to have the same acupuncture point after death. That's fine."

Zhu Qiu originally thought that she would be handed over, but if it was in the hands of the emperor or the empress dowager, then she would really be doomed, betraying the lord plus forging letters to deceive the emperor, such a crime would not be easily exonerated.Hearing His Highness the Sixth Highness say this, the desire to live rose in her heart again.

"Your Highness, let Zhuqiu go. Zhuqiu knew he was wrong. Zhuqiu went back to his hometown to offer a memorial tablet to the imperial concubine, and bowed down every day. Please, Your Highness. Please let me go."

Jing Yi watched her kowtow all the time, her forehead was covered with blood.

He is not a saint, he can't forgive the person who hurt his mother and concubine, his mother and concubine is still lying there, but the person who caused her is praying for the hope of living, he really can't do it, but seeing Zhuqiu's full The appearance of blood on the head is really unbearable.

Where did Xue Yao have his dilemma, squatting down and looking at Zhu Qiu coldly,

"If you smash your head here, the imperial concubine will never come back."

Zhuqiu didn't care, he was still knocking.

"You might as well knock in front of the imperial concubine's coffin. If she nods, I'll let you go."

Zhuqiu turned a deaf ear and continued knocking.

Xue Yao was a little impatient, and directly pressed the sword to her forehead, and Zhu Qiu didn't dare to move for a moment.

"If you really have a conscience, you should tell His Highness the Sixth Highness immediately, instead of being threatened to write that letter later, let alone beg His Highness Sixth now. As an accomplice, I will treat you For example, the imperial concubine of your relatives was killed, and she was notorious after death, and she couldn't even die in peace, but now she is here to force His Royal Highness to forgive you. Will your conscience be better every day you live in the future?"

Zhu Qiu's face turned pale when he said it, his lips squirmed for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

"Look over there, Chen Guifei is still lying there, do you think she will be lonely? Do you think she would have thought that you killed her? You said she saw you persecuting her before her death Son, what would she think? Tell me."

Xue Yao's voice got louder after he said that, Zhu Qiu knelt there without moving, but the tears and blood ran across his cheeks, which looked very scary.

Jing Yi sighed silently, and said in a choked up voice, "Zhuqiu, my concubine mother, concubine mother, I will never forgive you, and I will never kill you, you go, don't let me see you again .”

"Your Highness?" Zhu Qiu raised his head and looked at them in disbelief. After confirming that no one cared about her, he knelt on the ground and nodded a few times at Concubine Chen's coffin, and then at Jing Yi. , but was avoided by Jing Yi.

Having said that she would not forgive, naturally she would not accept her confession.

Zhu Qiu raised his head, seeing that His Highness the Sixth Highness was no longer there, he walked away with a dejected expression.

The night wind was getting colder and colder, Jing Yi watched her leaving back slowly disappear, sighed a long time, and asked Xue Yao, "Am I being soft-hearted too easily?"

"No, you're fine."

Jing Yi turned to look at him with questioning eyes.

"Since she has betrayed her, the imperial concubine definitely doesn't want to see her. Besides, it's not easy for us two big men to force her to death."

The former sentence was so serious, but the latter sentence suddenly changed its style, causing the corner of Jing Yi's mouth to twitch.

Back in the house, Jing Yi helped Concubine Chen's coffin slowly circle around.

"Yeah, she doesn't deserve to die by my concubine's mother. Just like this, my concubine's mother is a bit lonely."

Xue Yao was behind him, pressing his shoulder,

"Your Highness, Xi Nian will always be with you in the future. Even if there is no Concubine Chen Gui, there will still be me. You will never be alone."

Then I heard Jing Yi's almost inaudible 'hmm'.

This is?agreed,

Xue Yao's heart was as happy as a flower, and he wanted to jump up for joy. When he turned his head and saw Concubine Chen was still in the coffin, his heart suddenly thumped. If Concubine Chen saw that he was abducting her son here, would it be Angrily come alive and find yourself desperately?

It's a pity that this idea just passed by in a flash. Xue Yao has always been a person who does it first. As for the consequences, let's wait until she can really get up.

That being said, when he came back the next night, Xue Yao obediently stepped forward to offer a stick of incense to Concubine Chen Gui, begging Concubine Chen not to blame her, and said that she would do her best to protect Jing Yi's safety. I don't know if saying this will satisfy Chen Guifei.

This long night became less bleak because of the company of one person.

In the next few days, Jing Yi rested next to the Lingling Hall during the day, and guarded the spirit in front of Concubine Chen Guifei at night. Xue Yao naturally accompanied him, and he hid himself day and night. Others know nothing.

The people in Wanyue Palace were dismissed by Jing Yi.Those who are willing to stay will follow the eighth princess to the Xinlan Palace, and those who are not willing to go back to the Chief Internal Affairs Office for distribution.

When they were dismissed, there was no Zhu Qiu in the crowd, and both of them thought she had left the palace, but one day when they were packing up Concubine Chen Guifei's belongings, they found that she had died in their own room. It looked like she committed suicide.

Thinking of her strong desire to survive that night, it is difficult to tell whether she was used and abandoned, or committed suicide with guilt.

Anyway she is dead.

Jing Yi gave her a cold look, "Even if she did this voluntarily, it doesn't make any sense right now."

Why not, it's just that death is like a lamp being extinguished, and the most they can do is to let her die in peace.

When the crowd receded, the Crescent Moon Palace became more and more deserted.

The weeds in the garden have not been taken care of for a few days, and they have a tendency to grow crazily. It is obvious that autumn is approaching, but it is shocking how the vitality of the grass is so tenacious.

However, the benefit of fewer people and fewer people is at least convenient for Xue Yao to enter and exit.

A cold palace, on the contrary, makes people live more wantonly.

Xueniang accompanied the queen mother several times, and she was very pleased to see His Highness Sixth Highness's spirit getting better day by day.

The news that Jing Yi got from the prince always disturbed him, but it was not good to tell the Queen Mother directly, so he could only tell Xue Niang repeatedly to be careful. After talking several times, Xue Niang also became cautious. I was relieved a lot.
