Xuan Tianfeng didn't understand. He knew that Consort Li was going to have a funeral for the dead, but he was confused when Feng Yu Heng mentioned something about feelings. However, Feng Yu Heng didn't want to say anything more. She had already left the place.
He didn't chase after her. He just stared at her back for a long time. There was a faint throbbing in his heart, but in the end, it turned into a sigh. He couldn't catch up with that girl's footsteps! The scholarly man slowly shook his head. When he returned to his thoughts and looked at the bedchamber of Zhang Ning Palace, his heart sank again.
Imperial Concubine Li's ghostly voice continued to mutter, and each word caused Xuan Tianfeng's scalp to swell. He returned to the hall, and without another word, he used his martial arts and smashed the mourning hall.
The sudden movement not only scared Consort Li to the point that she sat on the ground, but even Zuo, who was guarding the door outside, was so shocked that she pushed the door open and ran in. When they saw that the person who smashed the mourning hall was the Sixth Prince, Xuan Tianfeng, they were surprised again.
"Feng?" Consort Li exclaimed softly. She said in disbelief, "Why did you enter the palace at this time? When did you return to the capital? "
Xuan Tianfeng ignored her. He was still focused on tearing down the mourning hall. He even smashed the memorial tablet and split open the coffin.
Inside the coffin, there was a set of purple clothes, from an outer cloak to a robe to an inner garment. There were even shoes and socks. The purple clothes were arranged in the shape of a person. Who wouldn't be able to tell that this was Xuan Tianming?
The Sixth Prince was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He turned around and glared at Consort Li. He said angrily, "What the hell are you doing?"
Zuo helped Consort Li up from the ground. She wanted to say a few words for her master, but she didn't know what to say in front of her. Explain? Even she couldn't stand what Consort Li had done. How could she defend herself?
Without waiting for her to think any further, Xuan Tianfeng's temper suddenly rushed towards her, shouting loudly: "Zuo 'er, kneel!" She knelt down with a plop, and Xuan Tianfeng continued: "What did This Prince instruct and instruct you before leaving? Did I tell you to keep an eye on Her Highness Consort Li and not let her stir up trouble and do anything evil? "
Zuo's heart trembled. That was what the Sixth Prince told her before he left, but she couldn't stop him! However, at this point, it was useless to say anything. She was a servant. When the master was angry, other than kowtowing and begging for mercy, what else could she do?
Zuo kowtowed to the ground and sobbed, "It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Consort Li. Please punish me, Your Highness."
"Punish?" Xuan Tianfeng was so angry that his face turned blue. "Do you know that if what happened tonight spreads to Zhang Ning Palace, even if you have ten heads, it won't be enough?" After he finished speaking, he glared at Consort Li. "It's the same for Mother! Even if you have ten heads, it won't be enough! Including me, we'll all die together! "
"How is that possible!" Consort Li was also a little angry. How could her son talk to her like this? "Not to mention that this matter won't spread out of Zhang Ning Palace. Even if it does, I'm cursing the Ninth Prince. It has nothing to do with the Eighth Prince. I … Oh, by the way, Feng, there's something you might not know." Imperial Concubine Li quickly explained to him: "Now, the winds in the palace have changed. The favored imperial concubine is no longer Imperial Concubine Yun. Instead, it's your aunt, Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu. The favored prince is also no longer the Ninth Prince, but your younger brother, the Eighth Prince. His Majesty dotes on Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu and the Eighth Prince even more than he doted on Imperial Concubine Yun and the Ninth Prince. That's why, even if news of what happened tonight spreads, we will not be punished. Your aunt, Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu, will help us. For the sake of her son being able to ascend the throne, she is eager for This One to curse the Ninth Prince to death. Of course, that's not the end goal. Feng, Mother hopes that you can sit on the highest throne! "
"Imperial Concubine Mother!" Xuan Tianfeng was about to break down, what kind of messy thoughts were these? He had to emphasize to Consort Li again, "I don't care about that throne and I don't want it. Also, don't think that Consort Yuanshu and Eighth Brother will speak for us. Even if they're family, they're definitely not on the same side. "He was very confused," Why is Mother helping them like this? Since you want me to ascend to the throne, there's no reason for you to help them harm the Ninth Brother? "
"Feng." Imperial Concubine Li took a few steps forward and tried to instill her own views into Xuan Tianfeng, "Feng 'er, Imperial Concubine Mother understands your intentions, so Imperial Concubine Mother is helping you! She's doing this for you! "
"For me?" Xuan Tianfeng's heart went cold as a bad premonition came over him. He asked Consort Li, "For what?"
"It's for the sake of obtaining the person you like and being able to be together with Imperial Daughter Ji An!" Imperial Concubine Li happily said this and felt quite proud of her own thoughts. "Don't worry, Mother isn't someone who doesn't have a clear mind. Even if she's already married, it doesn't matter. She's a good child with ability. I, Feng, have very good eyes. Mother believes that as long as you two are together, with that girl's ability, you'll definitely be able to obtain the throne. "
The news that he didn't want to hear the most was finally heard. Xuan Tianfeng felt his scalp go numb. He stared at Consort Li in a daze. This birth mother of his was like a crazy person in his eyes. Could it be that today's funeral for Xuan Tianming was to kill him and then have him marry Feng Yu Heng?
Imperial Concubine Li's answer came immediately: "Feng 'er, listen to me. This method of performing a funeral for the dead is very effective. As long as I perform a funeral for the dead for seven days, the ninth prince's yang energy will completely dissipate. When that time comes, he will pass away, and you can be together with Imperial Daughter Ji An."
"Nonsense!" Xuan Tianfeng was about to go crazy. He pointed at Consort Li and said: "Put away your foolish thoughts! Put away your terrifying thoughts! Since you're my mother, I'll keep tonight's matter a secret for you. But if it happens again, don't blame your son for being ruthless! "
After saying this, he grabbed the set of clothes in the coffin and threw it into the brazier to burn. He also threw the little figure beside the brazier into the fire. Then he said to Zuo: "I's return to the capital, no one is allowed to spread it. You stay in the palace and watch over your master. If she does this again, I will beat you to death!"
After he finished speaking, he started to walk out of the palace. Consort Li pulled him from behind and asked: "Are you leaving the palace?"
Xuan Tianfeng stopped, but he didn't turn around. His anger made his heart heave up and down. His emotions were very unstable. He said to Consort Li: "Mother, if you want me to live well, then don't do such foolish things. You're not helping me, you're harming me. As for me and that Princess Ji'an, she's only my sister-in-law. I don't have her in my heart. "After he finished speaking, his body swayed and he quickly left Zhang Ning Palace under the moonlight.
Consort Li looked at her empty hand and couldn't help but feel absent-minded. "Feng doesn't like that girl? No, no, he still likes her. It's just that he's afraid of the Ninth Prince, so he doesn't dare to admit it. That must be it. " As she said this, she turned around and looked at the mess on the ground. She began to urge Zuo: "Quickly, clean this place up and rearrange it. Don't we have a spare set of purple clothes? Take it out and put it in the coffin. Change the memorial tablet and the candles. Quickly. "
Zuo knelt on the ground and cried: "Mother, please stop! You can't go on like this! The Sixth Prince said that if you don't come to your senses, he won't recognize us anymore! Mother, this servant begs you, please don't do such things again! "
"Are you afraid of death?" Consort Li stared at Zuo and said: "Just because Feng said he's going to kill you, you don't dare to do anything for me? Then do you believe that this consort will execute you before he does? "
"This servant is not afraid of death! If you want to kill me, then kill me. But as long as I'm alive, I'll never let you do such things again. "Zuo had also made up her mind. She would rather die than help Consort Li.
However, Consort Li was determined. Since Zuo wouldn't do it, she would do it herself. She went to the bedroom alone to look for things and actually rearranged the mourning hall. Zuo 'er was so angry that she had no choice but to open all the doors and windows. Then, she loudly said, "If Your Highness insists on doing this, then don't hide this matter from anyone. Do it with the doors open. This servant will go and open the doors of Zhang Ning Palace."
"How dare you!" Consort Li was trembling with anger.
Zuo asked her back: "Since you think it's right, why don't you do it openly? Why do you have to do it secretly? Mother, please wake up! If you really want the Sixth Prince to fight for the throne, then do it openly. Using such methods is not what a gentleman should do. The Sixth Prince has always been open and aboveboard. Why do you want to add such a stain to his reputation? " As Zuo spoke, she went forward to tear down the mourning hall again. She ignored Consort Li's attempts to stop her. She had made up her mind. Even if she had to risk her life, she would never let Consort Li do such immoral things again. What's more, this thing was useless. Consort Li had only heard about it from hearsay. How could she really know how to use witchcraft curses?
On this side, the master and servant of Zhang Ning Palace were causing a ruckus. As for Feng Yuheng, who had left Zhang Ning Palace, she headed straight for Cun Shan Palace. She tried to go in and check if Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu had done anything similar, or if the person using Gu techniques was hiding in Cun Shan Palace.
But she was only halfway there when she saw two little eunuchs walking towards her. One of them was wiping his tears as he walked, while the other tried to persuade him: "Don't cry. We've done our best, but the Imperial Academy of Medicine refused to help. What else can we do? This servant can't use medicine without the master's permission. What's more, the person who ordered him to be beaten was the Emperor. "
The little eunuch who was wiping his tears heard this and said unwillingly: "Are we just going to watch Master die like this? Master usually treats us well. Whenever the Emperor rewards us with good food, he always shares it with us ah? Last year, when your mother was seriously ill, wasn't it Master who gave us money and invited an imperial physician to treat her? How can you say something like this now? "
The eunuch on the side also became angry: "What did I say? Everything I said was the truth. Right now, we've already gone to the Imperial Academy of Medicine. We've already knelt and begged the imperial physician on night duty. What else can we do? Do you want me to go kidnap the imperial physician? I don't have that ability. Or go out of the palace to buy medicine and invite a physician? Which one of us can leave the palace? Who can bring a physician in? "He stomped his feet as he spoke," Forget it. If there's no other way, let's go beg the Empress! You're right. Master saved my mother's life last year. We can't not repay this kindness. "
The two little eunuchs discussed for a while and decided to go to Jingtsu Temple. In the end, they were stopped by a group of Imperial Guard. They were taken away without another word. From afar, one could only hear the two's explanations and pleas for mercy …
