Chapter 583 Queen Mother National Mourning
Chapter 583 Queen Mother National Mourning
The people in the palaces had already closed the palace gates.
The concubine was about to fall asleep when she heard the shocking news.
Everyone was shocked
The palace maids hurriedly lit the lights in the palace.
The originally dark palaces were now illuminated by candlelight as bright as day.
The concubines hurriedly got up from their beds and put on their clothes.
The eunuchs did not dare to delay in the slightest and trotted all the way to inform the people in other palaces to rush to Ci'an Palace as soon as possible.
Queen Mother passes away
This is a national mourning
The bells keep ringing
For a moment, the entire palace was filled with noise, footsteps and shouts.
No one expected that the Queen Mother would pass away so suddenly.
At this moment, the road to Ci'an Palace was crowded with people.
Zhonghe Palace
Lin Junxue has already changed into a plain dress
Tonight, she was the only one in the palace who had not fallen asleep at this hour, and she was not panicking at all, having been waiting for a long time.
Qiao Xin pushed the door and walked in
"My lady, the party has already started outside. It's time for you to leave too."
Lin Junxue nodded
"Go, go."
Ci'an Palace
Everyone has arrived, and the concubines kneel on the ground according to their positions.
When Lin Junxue arrived, Zhang Yuyan and Li Shiwen were already there.
Sun Manrou, Qin Shushu, have arrived
Even the two children Xie Ziyi and Xie Fuxiao who were still asleep were brought over.
Xie Wuji was already kneeling there.
"May the Queen be blessed with good health and happiness"
Everyone stood up to greet each other, and finally Chen Mi came late with a big belly
The faces of the concubines were just pretending to be sad.
Zhang Yuyan whispered, "Empress, the Emperor just came and took a look. He only ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to follow the rules. Everyone in the harem must eat vegetarian food for a month to pray for the Empress Dowager. The Emperor is in the inner room, you should go and take a look."
Lin Junxue nodded
"Well, I'll go in and take a look. You'll have to work harder here."
Seeing Lin Junxue was about to go in, Chen Mi took a step forward and also had an idea.
Next second
Li Shiwen blocked Chen Mi's way
When Chen Mi saw Li Shiwen, his expression turned cold, knowing that she did it on purpose.
Li Shiwen just pretended not to see the dissatisfaction in Chen Mi's eyes...
"Empress Mifei, you will be tired from keeping vigil tonight. You should be more careful. Why don't you rest here for a while?"
Li Shiwen said this, even if Chen Mi wanted to follow, he had to give up.
"Princess Lan, you are truly a person of great virtue and kindness."
Li Shiwen nodded
"I am ashamed to accept your praise, Madam Concubine Mi."
Chen Mi snorted coldly, looked displeased, and turned away.
Zhang Yuyan said, "Sister, Concubine Mi's personality is really different now. If it were in the past, how could she be so disrespectful in front of others?"
Li Shiwen paused, looking at Chen Mi's back with a slightly deep gaze.
"Perhaps, Concubine Mi has never changed, but she has hidden it too deeply, and now she doesn't want to pretend anymore."
Zhang Yuyan nodded
“Maybe that’s true.”
里间
Lin Junxue asked Qiaoxin to wait outside and went into the hall. As soon as she entered, she was almost injured by the inkstone.
Xie Yu didn't know who came in and shouted angrily.
"Get out"
Lin Junxue looked at the inkstone at her feet, her expression unchanged.
People are dead
Xie Yu is reminiscing here.
Hypocrisy
I'm afraid I'm deceiving myself.
Do you believe how deep the mother-son love he has for the Queen Mother?
joke
Lin Junxue lightly moved her lotus steps and raised her foot to pass over an inkstone on the ground.
Then, she walked towards the darkness in the room step by step, and her figure was gradually swallowed by the darkness.
The faint candlelight swayed in the wind, flickering with a faint yellow light.
Xie Yu stood quietly by the window, his slender figure elongated by the candlelight.
Projected on the ground, it forms a lonely and desolate shadow.
Outside the window, the night is as dark as ink, so deep that it seems to swallow all the light.
Only the few stars, like gems inlaid in the black sky, emit a cold and distant light.
Xie Yu raised his head slightly, looking through the window at the endless darkness in the distance.
His eyes were confused and deep. At this moment, he was thinking about the past.
Lin Junxue walked behind him
However, he was completely unaware and still stood there motionless.
Like a sculpture, it reveals an unspeakable loneliness and desolation.
Next second
Lin Junxue's voice rang out in this room.
"Your Majesty, my mother has passed away, you still have to take care of your own health. I know you are sad, but the dead are gone, and the living have to live well. You are responsible for the people of the world, you must not harm your health. I beg you to mourn."
Xie Yu heard Lin Junxue's voice, turned around, and looked at her face.
My mood gradually calmed down.
His eyes turned red, and he waved at Lin Junxue, "Jun'er, come to me."
Lin Junxue stepped forward step by step, came in front of Xie Yu, and placed her hand on Xie Yu's hand.
Her palms were warm, as if carrying endless power.
Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Jun'er, the Queen Mother is gone. Tell me, should I not treat her like this? She must resent me."
Lin Junxue saw Xie Yu was heartbroken and seemed to be really regretful.
Laughing in the heart
She naturally knew what Xie Yu wanted to hear?
It's nothing more than a pretense to show off one's own benevolence and righteousness.
Make excuses for yourself
I did it for the people of the world to see, I just don't want to be known as a heartless person.
Where is the true regret?
Besides, Xie Yu is addicted to acting
Maybe he forgot that it was he, the emperor, who actually killed the empress dowager.
It was Xie Yu who gave Wang Chu the chronic poison
It was Xie Yu who finally killed the Queen Mother
It is really a huge irony to see them pretending to be righteous.
Lin Junxue gently raised her eyes, which were as clear and moving as autumn water.
At this moment, her gaze seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and was like a gentle spring breeze blowing across one's face, making people feel warm in their hearts.
I saw that in those eyes, there was gentleness flowing like water waves, which contained endless tenderness and deep affection.
Xie Yu was immersed in such tenderness for a while.
"Your Majesty, I know the pain in your heart. The Queen Mother did so many unbearable things. Although you are dissatisfied, you have never blamed her and saved her face. This is already a grace. Now, the Queen Mother is gone. When she left, she was very peaceful. Your Majesty should not blame yourself. I will take the concubines in the harem to arrange the funeral of the Queen Mother."
Xie Yu stared into Lin Junxue's eyes. Obviously, he was very satisfied with these words.
sighed
"Jun'er, I can only feel at ease when you are by my side."
Lin Junxue said softly, "Your Majesty, I will always be with you until the moment my life ends."
This is what Xie Yu wants to hear most at this moment.
Instantly, it hit his heart
As an emperor, he has the most greedy heart
What Xie Yu wanted was someone who would never betray him.
A beautiful, considerate, thoughtful woman who loves him wholeheartedly and disregards her own safety.
Accompanying him by the emperor's side, always working hard and without complaint.
