Chapter 424 Chapter 425: Stumbled and fell into the water
Concubine Shu asked all the palace attendants on duty and found no omissions, which proved that the little palace lady's words were true.
Even if Yun Zhao were to pick a bone, he really couldn't find fault with her. Moreover, the little palace maid was shocked and frightened when she replied, but no matter how she asked, there was no mistake in her previous and later confessions.
If a person lies, there will always be something wrong when faced with repeated questioning.
Song Yunzhao watched the matter come to an unexpected conclusion, and felt that he might be too suspicious, thinking too much, and turning everything into a conspiracy.
Yanqing Palace needed to be repaired, and the side hall where Feng Yunjin lived also needed to be overhauled, so Concubine Shu made the decision and asked her to temporarily move to the west hall of the main hall, and then move back after her Qingxin Hall was repaired. The place she lived in was not the main hall of the main hall. It doesn't matter.
Song Yunzhao saw that the arrangements were almost complete, and then he took the people away.
Stepping out of Yanqing Palace, she looked back. Even though there was no longer black smoke, the smell of fire still lingered in the air.
Soon Concubine Shu reported this matter to the emperor. Feng Yi knew that Yun Zhao and Feng Xiaoyuan had a good relationship. Yun Zhao was definitely not happy that her Qingxin Palace was burned this time, so he simply asked Feng Yunjin to move to the main palace. Even if Qingxin Palace is repaired, there is no need to move it back.
Yunzhao was very upset because Feng Yunjin could not be promoted, so this time he took the opportunity to move her to the main hall, which was considered a favor.
Song Yunzhao was really happy when he found out, thinking that Feng Yi still understood her.
Feng Yunjin was a blessing in disguise, occupying the main palace as Xiaoyuan, which can be regarded as a precedent.
Many people came to congratulate him, and Yun Zhao also asked people to send congratulatory gifts. He was thinking about calling a few people over to have fun and get rid of the bad luck.
The fire in Yanqing Palace gradually faded away as the weather got hotter. Once the weather got hotter, many people couldn't stand it, and the imperial doctors went to the harem more often.
Yunzhao has two ice routines for himself and his son, so life is not difficult, but the ordinary concubine's ice routine is not enough to support the use of ice all day long, so life is a bit difficult.
There is no way around this. There is only so much ice stored in the cellar every year, and it is difficult to find more ice. Even if you pay a high price to buy it, it is not easy to buy.
Yun Zhao spent the summer in Jincui Garden last year, and she found life difficult in Yaohua Palace this year. After all, the Queen Mother was in the palace, and she was unwilling to wait until the summer weather subsided to take her children to play in the Imperial Garden. The last time she returned to Yanqing Palace, there was a fire. It has always been a thorn in her heart. Even if it is found to be an accident, she still feels uncomfortable.
Coupled with the fact that she was a cannon fodder in the book, even if she had a smooth life these years, she never dared to be careless.
Feng Yi was busy with the affairs of his previous dynasty, and he was rarely seen in the harem. Since he made Yun Zhao unhappy last time, he couldn't stay in Yaohua Palace every day during these days, and he found time to come back every now and then to accompany him. She ate meals, so Yaohua Palace was still the most dazzling place in the harem.
Song Yunzhao was woken up early in the morning by his son. He was very energetic and had an active temper. He got up at dawn and ran out after breakfast.
Yun Zhao would usually turn a blind eye when he went to Tai Chi Hall, but today he made a fuss about going to the Imperial Garden. Yun Zhao had no choice but to accompany him. The morning glow was like a splendid embroidery, and the gorgeous morning breeze brought a bit of coolness to his face, making him feel even more comfortable.
Anshun followed behind the eldest prince, not daring to blink, and led a group of people to protect the young master.
Yun Zhao found a pavilion and sat down, gently shaking his fan. After a while, the sky was still bright with morning glow, and suddenly black clouds came over the city and thunder rolled.
Song Yunzhao immediately asked someone to bring Feng Yi back, held his son's hand and walked back.
After entering the stone pavilion, he shook off the water first. The strong wind blew, which made people feel a little chilly. Yun Zhao held his son in his arms and lowered his head with a smile and asked, "Is it cold?" Feng Hao shook his head, "Not cold. ." After that, she looked at the rain curtain and said happily: "Mother, concubine, it's raining so hard. It's the first time I've seen such heavy rain."
Yun Zhao found it funny how old you are, but he nodded seriously, "As you grow up, you will see more and more things in the future."
Feng Zuo was laughing. Yun Zhao saw his son so happy, and he also happily wiped his wet clothes with a handkerchief, just waiting for Yu Ting to go back.
“Mother, look there is someone over there.”
Yun Zhao heard Xiangxue's voice and looked up, and sure enough he saw someone walking quickly through the rain. The rain was so heavy that he couldn't see who it was, and could only see a hazy shadow.
"Maybe he's a palace servant who doesn't hold an umbrella." Yun Zhao frowned slightly and said.
“Perhaps I don’t know where the palace servants are.” Xiangxue sighed. The palace servants at the bottom of the palace worked the hardest, doing the hardest jobs and suffering the most grievances.
She also survived step by step in this way.
After the shadow disappeared in the rain, I sat in the pavilion for a while. Finally, the rain stopped. Summer rain comes and goes quickly.
Yun Zhao led people back to Yaohua Palace. First, he asked someone to give Feng a hot bath, and he also took a bath and changed his clothes. The palace clothes stained by rain were always uncomfortable and sticky on him. of.
When she came out, she saw that the faces of the people waiting outside were not very good. She asked casually, "What's going on?"
Shi Zhu took a step forward and said with a serious face, "Madam, the young lady beside Feng Xiaoyuan, Ling Shuang, slipped and fell into the water and drowned."
Song Yunzhao was stunned, "Ling Shuang?"
This name sounds familiar.
“It’s the little palace maid who got into a fire last time.” Shi Zhu said.
Song Yunzhao's face suddenly turned ugly, "Why did you fall into the water when you were so good?"
"It was said that there was no charcoal in the small teahouse at Yanqing Palace, so I asked her to get some charcoal. Unexpectedly, there was heavy rain on the way. She lost her footing and fell into the water without seeing the road clearly. It was raining so hard that no one could see her. So just…”
Song Yunzhao was speechless for a long time. The sky outside had cleared up and the cloudy scenery before was gone. However, in just a short time, a life was lost.
“What did Yanqing Palace say?”
“Feng Xiaoyuan had already gone to Cuiwei Palace to talk to Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu sent people to retrieve the man. A heavy rain washed away the surrounding area. It was impossible to tell whether it was a slip or something else, so it was determined that he had slipped.”
The previous fire was an accident, and this slip was an accident again.
How can there be so many accidents in the world.
Yun Zhao's eyes suddenly surged with a sense of chilling, and they were aimed at Feng Yunjin again and again. He was afraid that he was really aiming at her, but Feng Yunjin was one of his own, so he attacked her first.
