May 15th, Princess He'an's death day.

In front of the sacrifice table, the shaman offered wine, and held the god's sword and kowtowed to pray three times.

The Shoukang Palace was filled with solemnity, and everyone followed the Empress Dowager to recite the mantra of rebirth: "Namo Amitabha, Dowagata, Dowagata, Dowagata, Dowagata, Dowagata."

The shaman drums were beating, and the shaman recited a divine song in his mouth, dancing with the sound of the drums, and the strings of bells tied around his waist were jingling.

The Empress Dowager was reciting the scriptures, and at this time Chenbi came over. After performing the ceremony, she picked up a book of scriptures in a regular manner: "I wish the Queen Mother the Holy Mother. This is the original Ksitigarbha Sutra copied for the princess. I wish the princess to be reborn in the Western Pure Land."

The Queen Mother nodded lightly.

Chen Bi walked towards the sacrificial table and was about to put down the Buddhist scriptures in his hand when he suddenly heard a click. When he looked up, he saw that the little Buddha flowers on the altar had no fire to burn. In an instant, the fire spread, like a greedy tongue, licking the portrait from the Buddha flowers all the way.

The portrait shows a cute girl. Although she is still young, she has a straight eyebrows and eyes, and she looks like a beauty. The most special thing is that she has two small moles on her chin.

"He'an! He'an!" The empress dowager's expression changed drastically, and she rushed towards the portrait regardless of everything. The queen hurriedly stopped her and shouted loudly: "Come on, put out the fire!"

But there were only women in the room, and they were all just screaming and escaping, and they could not care about the portrait. The guards outside couldn't get through for a while. Finally, Wei Yingluo stepped forward a few steps forward and snatched the portrait. She burned half of her sleeves for this, and her face was dark.

"The Queen Mother." She handed over the portrait.

The queen mother hurriedly reached out to take it, hugged it in her arms like a child, her eyes red: "He'an! He'an!"

At this time, Yuan Chunwang came late and directed a group of eunuchs and guards to put out the fire on the altar.

Looking at the messy altar, the queen mother frowned and looked up at the shaman standing beside her, "Madam Shaman, will something happen to the festival affect He'an?"

The shaman raised his eyelids: "The princess died young, because the front yin had already passed away, and the back yin had not arrived, so she had no blessings to go there. In order to let the princess be reborn in the Pure Land, the queen mother did good deeds and did a lot of merits in her life. In another two years, she would be accomplished. Unfortunately, after years of hard work, she was destroyed by a demon today!"

Everyone was shocked.

Follower: "What evil spirit?"

The shaman stared at Chenbi with turbid eyes and raised his hand and pointed: "As soon as she appears, the Buddha flowers spontaneously ignite and the offerings are completely destroyed, she must be a demon! The Queen Mother, kill her and use her blood to pay tribute to the gods to calm the wrath of the gods!"

Chen Bi: "What evil spirit, you are talking nonsense, I have never done anything!"

Follower: "Pin Rong, don't be rude to the shaman. Mrs. Shaman, are you telling the truth?"

The shaman sneered: "How dare you doubt me?"

Even if I don’t believe it in my heart, the concubines will believe it in their mouths, and they will criticize every word.

"Empress, I know that you have always been kind, but Rong Rong is born too beautiful and charming the king. You may be a demonic thing!"

"No, Mrs. Shaman is the messenger of communication between humans and ghosts. How can she doubt her words when passing messages between the three realms?"

"The Queen Mother, the merits of thirty years have been lost today. The princess was tired of being brought to life by this evil spirit, and her rebirth has become a bubble! If you indulge her again, I wonder how many people will be implicated!"

The Empress Dowager could be kind tolerant at other times, but the matter involved her beloved dead daughter, and with the crowd, she finally lowered her face and said, "Take Concubine Rong!"

Yuan Chunwang waited for her to say this for a long time, and immediately waved his hand, and the eunuchs rushed over to get the dilapidated jade.

Chen Bi quickly threw herself at the feet of the queen mother, grabbed her skirt tightly, and said sadly: "Mr. Queen Mother, this is someone who frames the concubine. I don't know what happened!"

The Empress Dowager said condescendingly: "Falsely accusing you?"

Chen Bi: "It's a false accusation. Someone must have bribed Mrs. Shaman, and the altar has also tampered with it! Now it's burned to ashes, and the concubines can't provide evidence, but as long as they interrogate Mrs. Shaman, they can know the truth!"

"Rareless!" said the queen, "Who is Mrs. Shaman? The queen mother is treated with politeness, so how can you slander it!"

The queen sighed: "Isn't you taking the person down yet!"

Chen Bi grabbed the empress dowager's skirt to death, like a life-saving straw: "Empress Dowager, please take a closer look at Chen Bi. I am flesh and blood, and I am a living person!"

The Empress Dowager was originally devoted to the altar, but she had never looked at her directly. Now she heard her crying in a miserable way, and she looked at her. Unexpectedly, when she saw her, her eyes immediately frozen, and she held Chen Bi's chin with her backhand, and her voice was trembling: "You——"

Although I don’t know what happened, but looking at the Empress Dowager’s appearance, I’m afraid things will change. The Queen frowned and spoke, “Take it away!”

Chen Bi simply rushed into the empress dowager's arms, like a frightened child: "No, Empress dowager, don't!"

The Queen Mother was actually protecting the child, and put one hand on her back: "Stop!"

Everyone was shocked, and countless eyes were placed on the arm where the Queen Mother was protecting her.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath, stared at Chen Bi, and said word by word: "Come with me."

After saying that, he left everyone in the room, turned around and went to the inner room. Chen Bi looked back at Wei Yingluo, got up and chased after him.

The subsequent attention was always on Chen Bi, so naturally he didn't miss her gaze, so he slowly turned his head, his eyes also fixed on Wei Yingluo's face, and a cold smile.

Wei Yingluo lowered her head and said nothing, but she knew in her heart that from now on, the next generation will be the same as her.

Inside the house.

The Empress Dowager repelled her side and left only Aunt Liu and Chen Bi in the house.

Chen Bi knelt in front of the queen mother. The queen mother raised her chin and looked carefully for a long time. Her eyes became more and more strange. She suddenly said, "When is the birthday?"

Chen Bi was stunned.

Queen Mother: "Answer me."

"On the fifteenth day of September," Chen Bi replied hurriedly, then looked at her carefully, "Empress Dowager, why do you ask this?"

The Queen Mother recited silently: "On the fifteenth day of September..."

After a long time, the Queen Mother waved: "Take it down."

Chen Bi opened her mouth and wanted to explain that Aunt Liu had already stopped her words: "Pin Rong, the Queen Mother knows your grievances, let's follow the servant first."

Chen Bi had to follow her. Shortly after the two went out, the door opened again, and Wei Yingluo crossed the threshold: "Empress Dowager, are you looking for me?"

The Empress Dowager sat in a chair with her knees on her portrait of Princess He'an. She slowly stroked the girl on the portrait with a complicated expression. After a while, she said slowly: "I know that the queen wants to kill someone with a knife, but someone must be responsible for the ruined Jichen and my He'an! The Shaman is a messenger of the gods, and what she said is the will of the gods. So, I made up my mind to punish Rongpin! But I didn't expect..."

Wei Yingluo: "What's wrong?"

The Empress Dowager wanted to speak for a while and finally said, "Do you remember what I said, in the year when He'an was seriously ill, I prayed to all the temples, kowtowed and burned incense to the Buddha everywhere, and prayed to reduce his life for ten years, and exchange for He'an's life?"

Wei Yingluo nodded.

"At that time, a monk told me to leave a mark on the princess. Even if I can't keep it in this life, I will have the chance to reunite in the next life. I was so cruel. I gently pierced two little eyes on He An's chin, then, here." The Queen Mother pointed to her lips, "The moment when Rong Ping rushed over, I saw with my own eyes that she also had..."

Wei Yingluo: "The Queen Mother, the saying of reincarnation is really absurd. You shouldn't believe this."

The Queen Mother was excited: "But she was also born on the fifteenth day of September. Isn't it a coincidence that the same time and the same mark?"

Wei Yingluo: "You miss the princess too much, but Rongpin comes from the Huolan tribe, how could he be the reincarnation of the princess?"

The Queen Mother: "There are reincarnated spirit children first, and there are many babies born with strange marks among the people. Everyone says that this is the fate left by their parents in their previous lives!"

Wei Yingluo: "The Queen Mother!"

Queen Mother: "Maybe you are right, but what if? What if she is really-"

Poor parents in the world, as long as there is a possibility, they will hold them tightly in their hands. The Queen Mother no longer speaks, just lowers her head to look at the portrait on her knees and looks at the two small moles on the girl’s chin.

Suddenly, the door opened, and Hongli's voice broke the calm in the room. He panted and said, "Son, please respectfully ask the Queen Mother and the Holy One!"

Wei Yingluo turned around and saluted him: "I respectfully invite the emperor and the emperor to the holy."

Hongli didn't even look at her: "Empress Dowager, where is Rongpin?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother did not answer, he became anxious: "Mrs. The shaman's words are not trustworthy. Shenbi will never be a demon!"

The Queen Mother then slowly raised her head: "Isn't it a contradiction to the emperor who gave the shaman respect, but he did not let me believe her words?"

Hongli sneered: "Empress Dowager, I give the shaman status and respect, so that she can play a role in the second sacrifice of the day and night, to follow the old customs of our ancestors, and urge the Qing Dynasty not to forget that this country is hard to come by, not to let her dominate your thoughts and control your decisions. Please believe me, Chen Bi is an ordinary beauty, and is definitely not a demon!"

"emperor!"

Hongli suddenly turned around and saw Aunt Liu pushing the door and Chen Bi stood behind her intact. He immediately looked happy and stretched out his hand and said, "Chen Bi, come here!"

In order not to see their handshakes, Wei Yingluo quickly lowered her head, but saw their feet walking side by side by side.

"Wait!" the queen mother suddenly shouted.

Hongli suddenly held Chen Bi's hand tightly: "Empress Dowager, what else do you have to give?"

The Empress Dowager smiled: "Don't be nervous, I won't hurt your beloved person. I just fell in love with Rongpin. If she is willing in the future, she can come to Shoukang Palace and talk to me."

Hongli was stunned.

After returning to the Yangxin Palace, his brows still did not let go. He repelled his left and right, pulled Chen Bi to his side and sat down: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Chen Bi replied honestly: "Today, I am participating in the princess's sacrifice. I originally hoped to please the queen mother, but the sacrifice suddenly burned. The shaman said that I was a demon and insisted on forcing the queen mother to deal with it!"

She vividly told what happened today. When talking about the thrilling point, even Hongli wiped her sweat, but her doubts became deeper: "How did you escape this disaster?"

Chen Bi rolled his eyes: "I don't know, the Empress Dowager was going to kill someone, but suddenly changed her mind."

Hongli grabbed her chin, forced her to look directly at him, and said in a deep voice: "Chenbi, I want to listen to the truth."

If Wei Yingluo saw his gaze at this moment, she would know that Hongli did not love Shenbi, because love is a poison that makes people stupid, partial, and trustworthy, not like him now. His eyes were so calm that they stabbed into people's hearts almost like a sharp sword.
