The news that the Crown Princess had hanged herself on the city wall naturally spread like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.
Rumors were the most terrifying. The Crown Prince spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, forcing the virtuous Crown Princess to her death. Some even said,"The Crown Prince watched as his concubine made things difficult for the Crown Princess Consort and even said that he wanted to divorce his wife. The Crown Princess Consort had no choice but to end her life."
The commoners who received the news all shook their heads and sighed. They sighed with the words," A noble family is heartless. A good beauty is like this." Su Xin Yan had chosen the city wall because she wanted to damage the Crown Prince's reputation.
Since ancient times, the royal family had been the most ruthless. Not only did the Crown Prince not allow the Crown Princess to be buried in the royal tomb, he even had people sweep her up with grass and throw her into the chaos.
First, there was the matter of the python robe turning into a dragon robe, and then there was the Crown Princess 'suicide. The Emperor was furious and ordered all the concubines in the Eastern Palace to die. He also ordered the Crown Prince to rest in the Eastern Palace for two months.
He picked it up heavily and put it down gently, but in the end, he still didn't do anything to the Crown Prince.
According to folk legends, after death, there would be ox-headed and horse-faced people who would lead the way to the Yellow Springs. After drinking Meng Po's soup and entering hell, they would enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
After Su Xin Yan died, she did not see the so-called ox head and horse face. She did not know where to go, and a ghost drifted around. Others couldn't see her, but she could see others, either on the city walls or in the palace.
She knew that the Emperor had ordered the execution of all the concubines in the Eastern Palace, but Su Qiandan was a secondary consort with an heir in her womb. The wedding would be held in two months. He knew the ugly faces of the Su family and how they treated him when he was thrown into the mass grave. He was expelled from the Su family and could not be considered a ghost of the Su family after he died.
9th month, 8th day, Su Xinyan was in Yangxin Palace Hall. There were only the Emperor and two eunuchs in the hall. Su Xin Yan was nestled on the bed. Since her death, she did not need to eat or drink, but she could not talk to anyone either. She could only listen.
Suddenly, the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor asked for an audience. The Emperor, who was reading the memorial, frowned. He put down the memorial and passed it to him.
"This lowly official greets the emperor.”The Imperial Astronomical Supervisor, who was dressed in official robes, bowed to the emperor. Then, he said to the Emperor," Your Majesty, I observed the celestial phenomena last night and found that there are stars in the southeast. The phoenix stars are moving abnormally. It's a sign that the Phoenix Girl is in danger." At the same time, another star suddenly appeared, emitting white light. If my thoughts are correct, it is a demon star.”
Fiend Star? The Emperor and Su Xin Yan, who was as thin as air, asked in puzzlement.
Seeing the Emperor's confusion, the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor explained,""The demon star represents the source of trouble. I originally thought that the phoenix star had turned into a demon star, but when I observed it again two hours later, the demon star was actually one with the phoenix star.”
After listening to the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor ramble on for so long, the Emperor still couldn't figure out what was going on. He frowned and asked,""Where did all this nonsense come from? Only knowing whether it's a blessing or a curse!"
This time, the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor hesitated." This…"
Su Xinyan did not know what he said after that. Because she had something on her mind, the sounds of the outside world seemed to be unable to reach her ears. It was not because of anything else, but because she was the Phoenix Girl that all the people in the world knew. She was also the Phoenix Girl that the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor and Master Hui Yin had mentioned.
After staying in Yangxin Hall for a night, Su Xinyan was about to leave when she was enveloped by darkness and fell unconscious.
After a long period of unconsciousness, Su Xin Yan finally opened her eyes and saw the light. However, she was scared out of her wits when she saw that she was in a living body again.
Two days later-
"Miss, your body hasn't fully recovered yet. Why do you have to attend the flower banquet?”Suxue pouted slightly and squatted in front of the wardrobe to choose clothes for Su Xin.
"Suxue, take out that pink colored long robe embroidered with auspicious clouds and that pink armor for me.”Su Xinyan lay on the bed and held her heavy head as she said," If I don't go today, I'll definitely regret it in the future."”
Su Xinyan said. Su Qiandan, who was also the Di daughter of the Su family, had been in the limelight at the flower banquet in her previous life. She had won the emperor's favor with a song called " Dancing on the Plum Blossom " and had been bestowed with many treasures.
Su Qiandan was originally a concubine's daughter, but she could not resist having a capable mother. She relied on her family's background and her own ability to sit on the position of the mistress of the Su residence. That concubine's younger sister followed suit and became the legitimate daughter.
Su Xinyan lifted the blanket and slowly sat up to prevent her vision from turning black. When he came out of Yangxin Palace Hall, he had fallen into a coma and lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he was ten years old. In his previous life, he had been sick for more than ten days when he had not recovered from typhoid fever for a long time.
Today was only the fifth day.
He had to attend the flower banquet this time!
At this moment, Qing He, who was wearing a light blue gown, walked in from outside the house. Her face was filled with resentment. She closed the door as soon as she entered the room." Miss! Those slaves were really too much! This servant had just told them that she wanted a carriage, and they actually said that there were not enough carriages!”
Su Xin Yan collected her thoughts. The plain snow was given to her by the Empress, and the light lotus was sent to her by her maternal ancestor. Suxue was calm and careful, Qinghe had a rough personality, but she had martial arts. Although she was not powerful, she could still protect herself when necessary. In his previous life, Qing He had lost her life because of him.
"Qing He, it's still early. Go out now and borrow a carriage from the Quelling Marquis Manor. When he returned, he asked someone to park the carriage at the back door.”Su Xin Yan said. The Su Residence was only two streets away from the Quelling Marquis Residence, so there was still time left.
After Qing He left, Su Xinyan got up and put on her clothes.
Each courtyard had a small kitchen. Usually, breakfast was prepared by the small kitchen of each courtyard, and lunch was prepared by the big kitchen and sent to each courtyard. Usually, although the small kitchen was not very attentive, it would still send some porridge. Today, at this time, there was no food from the small kitchen, which made the calm Suxue angry.
"He really doesn't put Miss in his eyes!”Suxue muttered as she put on a red buggy for Su Xinyan.
Hearing Suxue's words, Su Xinyan did not say anything. She just sat on the stool and looked at the clean table in a daze. At this time in his previous life, he was soft-hearted and always had a tolerant heart towards these servants. If he suffered a loss, he would just keep it in his heart and let his grandfather and the Empress worry about him.
Su Xinyan smiled dangerously and said,"Bear with it a little longer. After we return from the flower banquet, I'll deal with them.”When she spoke, her eyes were filled with displeasure and disgust.
With a heavy head and a hungry stomach, Su Xinyan frowned. She secretly brought Suxue to the back door and was careful not to let others discover her.
When the master and servant arrived at the back door, Qing He was already waiting with a coachman. The coachman first bowed to Su Xinyan and then said to her,"Little Miss, Eldest Furen was worried that Little Miss had not eaten, so she prepared some snacks in the carriage. Little Miss can eat some along the way.”
"Aunt truly loves me. Did Aunt enter the palace today?”Su Xinyan asked politely.
The coachman nodded." Yes, First Madam is already on her way."”
Su Xinyan pursed her lips and nodded." Then let's go."”After saying that, he stepped on the stool and got into the carriage. The two girls followed him into the carriage.
The coachman was right. There was also a small table in the carriage. There were four plates on the table, and each plate was filled with snacks. Just looking at the exquisite appearance was enough to make one's appetite rise.
Unfortunately, she was still groggy. Su Xinyan only used two pieces of rose cake and leaned against the soft pillow to rest. The two servant girls could not do anything about their master's stubborn temper these few days. They could only find a cloak to cover her with.
The weather gradually turned cold. Previously, Su Xinyan had caught a cold because she had been reading late at night. She had taken medicine every day for a few days and still did not get better.
The carriage had to alight when it reached the palace gates. After resting for a while, Su Xinyan got off the carriage with a red face. Suxue and Qing He followed behind her.
The Flower Banquet was organized by the Empress, and only the women of officials above the third rank could enter the palace. There were many people along the way, but because of the strict rules of the Imperial Palace, they had to lower their voices even when talking.
The empress's mother's family was the Marquis of An State, the number one general of Dong Chen State, and she was childhood sweethearts with the emperor when she was young. In the past, the two of them were also a couple that everyone envied. However, the Emperor had been all-powerful for many years, and there were many beauties in the harem. His attitude towards the Empress gradually became dull, but he was respectful to the Empress.
As the Empress's most cherished niece, Su Xinyan could do whatever she wanted at the feet of the Emperor, but she was so ordinary that she was boring. No one knew what was so special about this girl who was doted on by the Empress.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:05820186: 27PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:09 16 2019 1:34PM
