Chapter 654

  The sky has been faintly white.

  Xiao Xixi looked at the emperor who had lost his breath on the bed, feeling unworthy for the prince.

  This is the father that the prince once really admired.

  But until his death, he never regretted the harm he caused to the prince.

  Xiao Xixi helped the emperor arrange his clothes and hair, and covered him with a bedding, making him look like he died of illness in his sleep.

  After doing this, she left the sleeping hall quietly.

  Not long after she left, Gan Fu came.

  He opened the door and walked in, and his face suddenly sank when he saw the palace lady **** on duty still dozing off.

  Gan Fu stepped forward to wake up the person, lowered his voice and preached.

  "Are you just giving the emperor's vigil? All of them slept so badly. I'm afraid they won't wake up because of thunder. If the emperor has something to call you, can you hear it?"

  The court ladies and eunuchs could not hold their heads up after being trained, and they were even more anxious.

  People in Weiyang Palace know that Emperor Jueqian.

  A little bit of trouble, he will wake up.

  Even if there is nothing, he often wakes up in the middle of the night, or is awakened by a nightmare, or is thirsty for water.

  Because of this, the palace lady **** who is in charge of the night will surely be full of energy and dare not slack in the slightest.

  But I didn’t know what was going on last night?

  They actually fell asleep somehow.

  Wake up now, they still feel a dull pain in the back of their neck, as if they were beaten.

  After Gan Fuxun finished speaking, his anger dropped slightly.

  He glanced at the closed inner door and asked in a low voice.

   "Is the emperor still awake?"

  The court ladies and eunuchs looked at each other.

  One of them hesitated and said: "I shouldn't wake up yet."

  They slept for a whole night, and they just woke up. How can they know if the emperor is awake?

  Gan Fu pointed at a few of them, and said in a bad mood: "You wait, look back and see how I can clean you up?!"

  Everyone was shrinking their necks, thinking that they were done, and they would definitely be punished later.

  Gan Fu ignored them, walked to the inner room and knocked on the door lightly.

no response.

   Ganfu wondered, is the emperor still sleeping?

  It shouldn’t be.

  The emperor always wakes up at dawn, and has never changed for so many years.

  Gan Fu glanced out the window, the sky was already bright.

  But why the emperor hasn’t woken up yet?

   Ganfu felt a little worried, he knocked on the door again, and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, are you awake?"

   Still no response.

  The anxiety in Ganfu's heart gradually expanded.

  He put his hand on the door, slowly pushed it away, and said in his mouth.

   "Your Majesty, the minion has come in."

  The house is quiet.

  Gan Fu walked around the screen and saw the emperor lying motionless on the bed, looking like he was sleeping.

  But Ganfu has served the emperor for many years, knowing that the emperor is suspicious and alert. Once someone enters the room where he is, he cannot sleep so peacefully.

   Gan Fu cautiously walked to the side of the bed, full of anxiety.

  He found that the emperor’s face was blue, his lips were gray, and there was no trace of blood.

  It looked like it was dead.

  Gan Fu's voice trembled involuntarily, and his voice trembled even more horribly.

   "Your Majesty? Your Majesty!"

  The court ladies and eunuchs who were waiting outside the door heard Gan Fu’s shout, curious, couldn't help but look inside the house.

  Behind a screen, they couldn't really see the scene in the house, they could only vaguely see the fuzzy figure of Gan Fu kneeling beside the bed.

  After several consecutive calls to his Majesty, Gan Fu finally stretched out his finger trembling and placed it under the emperor’s nose.

  No breath!

  Gan Fu was so scared that his heart almost stagnated, and fell to the ground.

  He stared at the emperor on the bed with wide eyes, shaking like chaff, and then there was a harsh cry.

   "The emperor is dead!"

  This yell, like a thunderstorm, frightened many people.

  The first to rush to Weiyang Palace are the eunuchs.

  Next are the masters of each palace.

  The Queen Mother was also rushed by someone.

   Seeing the emperor’s body, the queen mother cried and fainted on the spot.

  The elder doctors hurriedly helped him to lie on the low couch next to him.

  The concubines cried violently, and their hearts were broken.

  The princes and princesses knelt on the ground and wiped their tears.

  Some people are thinking about it and want to fight for the throne before the prince returns to the palace.

  However, the Queen Mother woke up soon.

   She said while crying.

   "Summon the cabinet, make them enter the palace immediately, and let people go and see, how long will the prince enter Beijing?"

   "Here!"

  The empress dowager’s eyes were red, and her gaze swept over the princes in front of them one by one.

  She can guess that some of these people have different minds.

  In fact, these princes are all the same to her, they are all her grandchildren, no matter who sits on the throne, they will not affect her as the queen mother.

  Ke, the prince is now commanding an army of 110,000. He has just won the battle and his reputation is high, and he will be able to arrive in Shengjing soon.

  If someone suddenly jumped out to grab the throne at this time, the prince would definitely not give up, and it would definitely be another disaster.

  The Queen Mother is unwilling to let things go to that point.

  She pressed the corner of her red eye with a silk kerchief, and whispered to the female Shi beside her.

   "The imperial guards were sent to enclose Weiyang Palace, only to enter, not to leave."

   "Here."

  Weiyang Palace was soon surrounded by imperial guards.

   Long before the Queen Mother rushed to Weiyang Palace, Xiao Xixi had already left Weiyang Palace taking advantage of the chaos.

  She came to the gate of the palace alone, took out the prince token, and went out of the palace smoothly.

  Several carriages stopped at the gate of the palace in succession, and the elders jumped out of the carriage in a panic and ran into the gate of the palace in a hurry.

  The guards had been ordered long ago, and let them in without saying anything.

  Xiao Xixi passed these people.

  She went out for a distance, stopped, and looked back at the towering palace gate.

  At the beginning, she walked into this door with the mood to deal with the task.

  Now, it's time for her to leave.

  She was reluctant to give up.

  Xiao Xixi slowly exhaled, reluctantly retracting her gaze.

  She first went to General Zhongmu's Mansion.

  Xiao Lingfeng was still working as a errand in the palace at this time, and the person receiving her was Xue.

  Xue looked a little embarrassed when facing her.

   "I didn't expect the empress to come back suddenly, she didn't go out to greet her, and the courtesy was not enough. I hope to forgive me."

  Xiao Xixi asked, "Where are Xiaolan and Qiming? I want to see them."

  Xue’s hurriedly let someone go, Xiao Zhilan and Xiao Qiming called over.

  They were a little excited when they knew that it was their sister.

  It's just that Xiao Qiming is at the most awkward age. Even if he is happy, he still pretends to be ignorant.

  Xiao Zhilan is much more docile and docile.

  She called her sister sweetly.

  Xiao Xixi touched her head and said with a smile: "I'm here to say goodbye to you, I'm leaving."

  Xiao Zhilan hurriedly asked: "Where are my sister going?"

  Xiao Xixi: "I'm going to a far place."

   "Then when can you come back?"

  Xiao Xixi smiled: "I don't know."
