In a hurry, she dropped the pear flower and jumped forward, finally catching the glass bottle on her knees when it hit the ground.
Then he turned around and picked up a pear blossom with half of its petals on the ground and put it into a glass vase. He crossed his waist and looked at the two old men who were looking at each other.
Dr. Sun coughed guiltily: "These pear blossoms are so beautiful, where did they get them?"
"Doesn't it look good?"
Li Sixu smiled so much that her pear blossoms were revealed: "It is folded next to the stables of the East Palace. The pear tree is very short, and you can reach it with just one hand."
Doctor Du glared at Sun Yizheng angrily.
Doctor Sun was busy asking Li Sixu with a smile on his face: "Why did the girl run to the stables of the East Palace?"
"Send farewell to the prince brother!"
Li Sixu looked at an old man with twinkling eyes with a faint smile: "I heard that the prince brother was seriously ill, so Sisi ran to the East Palace, and then Eunuch Feng said that the prince brother and Xue Xiu had left for Luoyang together."
"Sisi left the East Palace and was going back to the Taiyuan Hospital. She saw Xue Xiu coming back from Xingqing Palace from a distance, and then chased him to the stables of the East Palace. She hid in the dark and watched the prince brother and Xue Xiu get on the carriage to Luoyang. .”
The suspicions in his heart were confirmed, and Dr. Sun was stunned: "Last time I went to Qingfeng Palace, I screwed you up."
"Yes, Brother Prince doesn't care about Sisi anymore!"
Li Sixu came closer to Sun Yizheng and blinked: "Since I have screwed up your disciple, do you want to think of a way to make up for it?"
Doctor Sun was looking at her inquiringly, meaning how to remedy the problem.
Li Sixu leaned close to him and whispered in his ear.
Dr. Sun's face turned pale with fright: "Girl, are you playing too much?"
"Forget it! I know you are an unreliable old man, so I will do it myself."
After speaking, he patted Dr. Sun on the shoulder and walked into the pharmacy.
Wang Ziqing has become accustomed to his master's appearance as a fairy-like master in front of outsiders, but he has no formal appearance in front of him and his junior sister.
Seeing that his master was about to fight with Doctor Du earlier, but was restrained by his junior sister like an eggplant beaten by frost.
When Li Sixu entered the pharmacy, Wang Ziqing, who was grinding medicine, looked helpless: "Are you scary again?"
"It's the old man who loves me and loves to think wildly."
Li Sixu smiled sweetly at him: "Brother Prince doesn't want to see Sisi? Or is there someone using his name to deliberately cause Sisi and Master to misunderstand Brother Prince? It's hard to tell."
"Besides, Sisi did nothing wrong about Concubine Shu. She wanted to use me to deceive the prince's brother that Li Ziqiao was his twin brother. Then Sisi exposed it, which made the father furious and sent her to Luoyang. Palace."
"Although Concubine Shu died strangely in the palace in Luoyang, her current end was entirely her own fault. Sisi was open-minded in her heart and did not feel that she had done anything wrong."
"Brother Prince, for so many years, he has been able to sit firmly in the position of crown prince and is valued by his father. Sisi believes that he is a person who listens and understands."
Li Sixu handed Wang Ziqing the medicinal materials: "People in this palace love to think too much, and Sisi has to believe that he can distinguish right from wrong. Everything will be finalized when he comes back from Luoyang."
Living in a turbulent harem, whether it is the emperor or the concubines, most of them are suspicious. In this harem, the only one who has the courage to open his heart and treat others sincerely is an alternative like his junior sister.
Wang Ziqing, who was grinding the medicine, felt that her junior sister's eyes became clearer and brighter when she said she believed in the prince.
This is probably what attracts Junior Sister to get close to her.
Wang Ziqing said in a doting tone: "Senior brother also thinks you did nothing wrong..."
If a horse gallops from Chang'an to Luoyang, it only takes one day and one night. However, because the prince Li Siqian was ill, Xue Xiu accompanied him and stayed at the Shaanzhou Station for one night.
There are thirteen stations from Shaanzhou to Luoyang. It took two days of stopping and going before we successfully arrived at Luoyang Palace.
Because the prince's wedding was approaching, Concubine Shu suddenly fell ill and passed away. When Xue Xiu went to meet Xuanzong, Xuanzong wanted to mourn in secret, and then announce that Concubine Shu had died of illness after the prince's wedding.
As soon as the prince arrived at the palace in Luoyang, the palace steward took him to the secret mourning hall for Concubine Shu.
After kneeling down and kowtowing, the prince stood up with a sad look on his face: "I would like to see the maid who is serving my mother and concubine closely."
"this!"
The palace steward's eyes flickered: "His Royal Highness has traveled all the way from Chang'an and arrived in Luoyang. His Royal Highness will wash and change clothes and rest for the night. Then I will find the maids who are waiting for you."
After the palace steward left, the prince glanced at Xue Xiu.
Xue Xi drove away the serving maids and eunuchs on the grounds that the prince wanted to cherish his memory.
After the others left, the prince asked Xue Xiu: "What do you think?"
"I thought it was a delaying tactic."
Xue Xiu reminded the prince: "When we find the palace maid tomorrow, the steward will say that there are some who committed suicide out of fear of sin."
"Well, for a while, you kept an eye on the palace manager for me."
Xue Xiu nodded, raised his energy, jumped up and disappeared outside the mourning hall.
When he was the only one left in the mourning hall, the prince stood in front of Concubine Shu's coffin and counted his breaths. He opened the coffin and looked at Concubine Shu's nose, ears, mouth and tongue by candlelight to confirm whether she was poisoned.
The prince, who had been holding back his tears, stood up and stood in front of the coffin, looking at Concubine Shu's face, tears rolling down his face.
"If my mother and concubine were as cautious as when they first met my father and entered the palace, how could they end up like this?"
The prince spoke sadly: "You think you can just fight hard for what you want, but you never thought that what you and I have is only what the emperor wants to give you."
"Perhaps my father once admired your appearance, but a man like him who hides his talents and bides his time, like a hidden dragon, would not be limited by love. Restoring Li Tang's great cause and controlling the government are what he values most in his heart. "
"It's a pity that the mother-in-law doesn't understand this truth. After she helped her son become the prince and established a firm foothold in the harem, she began to be domineering and want things she shouldn't get. You have always thought that I was too close to the tenth emperor sister, but I don’t know if I hadn’t made good friends with the imperial sister, but for the things my mother and concubine did, I would have died ten times a hundred times.”
"You climbed from a Luzhou singer to the position of your father's favorite concubine, and then you have a son who is the prince. You think you can compete for anything. How ridiculous?"
"In the end, you are not as clear-minded as people from aristocratic families like Concubine Xian and Concubine Gui, and you are not as transparent and open-minded as Empress Yu, which is why you have ended up where you are now."
Hot tears rolled down his cheeks, and the prince was distraught: "If you want to kill her, you must first make her crazy. I tried my best to make my mother and concubine wake up, but after all, you are still too obsessed."
"My son is here to see my mother and concubine off. For the sake of mother and son's affection, I will also find out the reason for your death. Mother and concubine, have a good trip..."
The prince spoke for a long time to Concubine Shu's body. What Concubine Shu could not understand during her lifetime, the prince poured out all her words after her death.
Until there was noise from outside, the prince was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he hurriedly held back his tears and built the coffin again.
"Your Highness, I'm back!"
The prince calmed down his emotions and his expression returned to its original state. Xue Xiu opened the door of the mourning hall and walked in. Behind him was a disheveled and gray-faced palace maid.
After seeing the prince clearly in the mourning hall, the palace maid knelt down with a plop: "The palace steward is going to kill Ya'er. Please save Ya'er, Your Highness."
