Now that the murderer has been caught, the uproarous poisoning incident has come to a successful end, and everyone is relieved. However, it is a pity that Maid Jiang is not so lucky, but few people here care about her life and death. After all, she is a maid.

That's all, too insignificant.

This was the day for Maid Jiang's funeral. The emperor's intention was to quietly transport the person out for burial at night, so as not to arouse suspicion among the people around her.

When Mansheng executed the funeral, he set the time for the funeral at 3:00 pm. Five brave servants loaded the coffin on a wooden cart and dragged it out for burial. His maidservants followed him all the way so that it could be melted on her grave.

paper money.

Haishi had just arrived, Jingsu was sitting quietly in the room meditating, and Shu Guifei came over. She was slightly poisoned that day and had recovered. She was dressed in purple clothes and looked particularly soft in the Jiangnan scenery.

"Concubine Li, Jin An."

She said goodbye, looked around the house where Jingsu lived, and said: "Your Majesty, this place is really unique. Maid Jiang is not so lucky. She lived in a land as big as a palm, and she died in a daze, and she even had to go to the funeral."

It's really pitiful to be sneaky."

Jingsu also looked sad, "That's what Shu Guibi said."

"I would like to give Maid Jiang a ride. I wonder if Concubine Li would like to accompany her?"

"Okay, let's go together and do our best."

The two of them then walked to the back of the hotel together, Yao Xi and Zi Wen walking in front holding lanterns.

As we walked further back, we could vaguely see through the dim candlelight that the scenery along the road became desolate. It seemed like a different world from the elegance and chicness in front. Dead trees and branches, and overgrown weeds blocked the path under their feet. The two of them walked.

You have to be extra careful, for fear that a snake may suddenly swim out.

Faintly with a little dim moonlight, we can see that the courtyard is usually white walls and black tiles, but it has been in disrepair for a long time, the tiles are broken, and the walls are peeling off. It is hidden under a few towering old trees, and it is a dark place.

Indescribably desolate and terrifying.

Jingsu really didn't expect this place to be so desolate, and was stunned for a while. However, Shu Guifei didn't care at all and walked forward, "My queen, you must hurry up, time waits for no one."

There seemed to be an ulterior motive behind her words. Jingsu looked at her back suspiciously and stepped up to follow her, "I'm ashamed to say that I am not as courageous as Concubine Shu."

Concubine Shu turned her head and glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Concubine Li is always good at joking. Who in the palace doesn't know that you are the most daring, so you dare to openly disobey the emperor? Once you go in, I will have to hide in the room."

Behind the Queen."

Concubine Shu Gui always spoke in a strange way, Jingsu smiled and dismissed it without going into details. However, as she got closer to the courtyard, she seemed to be a little scared, and she clasped her hands together, twisting the handkerchief.

Yao Xi saw something strange about her and was very surprised at the moment. Judging from her interactions with Concubine Li in recent days, she was not a timid person. How could she be afraid of Maid Jiang's body?

How could she know what kind of torment Jingsu was facing at the moment? She didn't understand the note written by Imperial Physician Yang to spend time with her that night. It wasn't until the news came out that Maid Jiang had been poisoned and died that she seemed to understand something.

, walking on this road now, she not only felt guilty towards Maid Jiang, but also expected and feared what would happen next.

She originally planned to come over quietly by herself, but she didn't expect that Shu Guifei would appear at such a critical moment. In order to avoid making her suspicious, she had to agree to come with her, but she was frightened in her heart.

My heart has already reached my throat.

The two walked into the courtyard. The place where they landed was full of dead branches and leaves. A black coffin was parked in the center of the room, with a brazier underneath. A younger maid shivered and added paper money to the brazier.

Hearing the movement outside the door, he yelled in fright, finally stopped, turned pale, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Good luck to Concubine Li, good luck to Concubine Shu,"

"Get up."

Seeing that she was still young, she was really pitiful, and Jingsu was quite kind-hearted.

Concubine Shu also spoke: "I and Concubine Li are here to see your master off. You just do your thing."

"Yes, I know." The little maid lowered her head and knelt down by the brazier to burn the note. Perhaps because there were suddenly four more living people here, the little maid was no longer so scared, and her hands were not as trembling as before.

It was said to be a farewell, as the two of them were respectable, so there was no need to kneel down and offer incense.

Concubine Shu showed no fear at all. She looked at the coffin and said: "You have been miserable in this life. If you are reincarnated as a girl in the next life, you must never enter the palace again and live a peaceful life, so as not to end up in trouble."

The fate of dying in a foreign country."

Jingsu raised his eyebrows when he heard this and couldn't help but turn his head to look at her. Shu Guifei was an unpredictable person. Although she seemed to be aloof from the world and indifferent to other things, she seemed to know everything.

The grace never fades. This central skill is nothing more than a delicate and exquisite heart. She really feels inferior to her.

Moreover, she has always been a loner and has never been friendly with anyone. Now she actually said such words in front of a mere maid, which really made her feel strange and confused. How could she have imagined that she

What she said next shocked her even more.

"Both you and I don't have the grace to be concubines and cannot be favored by the emperor, nor do we have the help of noble people, so it is naturally difficult for us to survive in this palace."

Jingsu was secretly frightened, and refused to show any clues on his face. He only said in a deep voice: "What does Shu Guibi mean by this?"

Shu Guibi said a few more casual words, then slowly turned around and looked at Jingsu, her apricot eyes shone strangely, which frightened Jingsu, but she suddenly smiled, and that smile was also strange and eerie.

, Xinzi licked it with a venomous tongue, "Don't worry, Concubine Li. I'm just envious of you, and I don't have any ill intentions."

Yao Xi followed Jingsu quietly at first, but after listening to Shu Guifei's words, she became secretly alert and suddenly said: "Mother, the time for Maid Jiang's funeral is coming soon. Since your thoughts have already been conveyed, why not go back first?"

Come on, don't disturb the soul of Maid Jiang."

Jingsu was anxious and immediately agreed, "That's fine, I'm going back now. I wonder what Concubine Shu Gui wants?"

Concubine Shu Gui glanced sideways at Yao Xi's face, "As expected, he is serving in front of the emperor, so he is extra courageous."

"I don't dare." Yao Xi said this without any fear on her face. She was ordered to serve at Jingsu's side. The emperor had told her early in the morning that special attention should be paid to Concubine Li's safety.

Shu Guifei also knew that she had a special status, so even if she said it, she would not take it seriously. Then she looked at Jingsu: "Concubine, I still have one unfinished matter, so I can't leave for now."

Jingsu said: "In that case, I will go back first."

"It's easy to go, my queen,"

When he thought of her words behind him, a burst of white smoke seemed to flash before his eyes. Jingsu felt his eyes go dark and then fainted.
