Now Liu Hong is of no use to her.

Since the birth of Bian'er, Liu Hong almost never spent the night with him.

The affection between husband and wife is almost negligible.

The only thing that has allowed her to rely on her braids for so many years is her comfort.

In order to prevent Liu Xie from wavering from now on, the only thing he could do was to shut up.

He Lian then calmed down and winked at the maid behind her.

The maid picked up the pillow and pressed it on Liu Hong's head.

“Mmmmm…”

Listening to the weak struggle on the bed, He Lian made up her mind and slowly closed her eyes.

For so many years, she has been alone in her empty room every day.

I've had enough of this kind of life.

After a few minutes, there was no sound from the bed.

Only then did He Lian ask the maid to pick up the pillow.

Liu Hong's face turned pale and he looked completely lifeless.

At this moment, He Lian had no expression on her face, but tears were streaming down the floor.

"Your Majesty, rest in peace! Wuuwuwu... Someone, come! Your Majesty has passed away! Someone, come! Your Majesty has passed away!"

Her voice immediately alarmed the eunuch at the door.

Now he didn't dare to stand there anymore and ran to find someone.

Soon, Zhang Rang and the other ten eunuchs came running in a panic.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty? What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

The Queen ignored Zhang Rang and just kept crying. The maidservant beside her cried sadly:

"Eunuch, His Majesty has passed away."

Now Zhang made it impossible for them to stand still. They cried out one after another:

"Your Majesty! How could you suddenly pass away?"

"Your Majesty! Wuwuwu..."

"Your Majesty! Why are you leaving like this? Wuwuwu..."

“…”

Not to mention that the Ten Attendants had a much closer relationship with Liu Hong than the Queen, so their cries must have been more sincere than the Queen's.

If Liu Hong dies, they will lose a supporter in the future.

They cried so sadly that even the fish in the pond floated up to take a look at the sound.

For a moment, the crying in the entire Pepper Palace moved heaven and earth.

A light drizzle began to fall from the sky, as if to see Liu Hong off.

Empress Dowager Dong in Changle Palace was in a bad mood today and always felt unwell.

As he was pacing anxiously in the palace, he heard bursts of crying.

"Where's that crying coming from? What's going on?"

Her question made the palace maid beside her frown, and after thinking for a while, she said:

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, this sound seems to be coming from the Jiaofang Palace."

Empress Dowager Dong was immediately shocked and shouted:

"Quick! Go to the Pepper Room Palace."

At this moment, she already had a premonition that something serious must have happened to her son.

She had only one son, and although he was the emperor of the Han Dynasty, this emperor was not a cause for worry at all.

She would hear someone come to tell tales almost every once in a while.

But she only said a few irrelevant and earnest words.

Liu Hong promised her everything, but he forgot it completely the moment he turned around.

My son has been sick for a while, so I can finally have some peace and quiet.

When Queen Dowager Dong arrived at the Pepper Palace, she saw all the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground.

The crying almost made her fall to the ground.

He immediately shouted:

"What are you doing?!"

"Queen Mother, His Majesty has passed away!"

The thing she least wanted to see happened.

A dizziness hit Empress Dowager Dong, and she was about to fall. Fortunately, her personal maid quickly supported her and she did not fall.

Empress Dowager Dong suppressed her grief and came to Liu Hong, where she saw her beloved son lying motionless.

Even his head was covered by the quilt.

Empress Dowager Dong could no longer hold on and collapsed in front of the bed.

The tears could no longer be stopped and flowed helplessly all over the floor.

She looked as if she had lost her soul, staring blankly at Liu Hong lying on the bed.

"Empress Dowager, His Majesty has passed away. You must take care of yourself."

When the personal maid saw the Queen Mother like this, she hurried to comfort her.

Unfortunately, the current Empress Dowager Dong is like a walking corpse, completely indifferent.

At this time, except for the personal palace maid, everyone else just cried and no one cared about the empress dowager.

They cried endlessly and no one came out to moderate the crying.

However, such a big commotion in the palace also alarmed the ministers outside the palace.

As soon as they heard that the emperor had passed away, no one could sit still.

They all rushed to the palace.

Every minister was in a hurry along the way, and no one was being polite to each other as usual.

At this time, the palace gates did not dare to stop these ministers.

The guards also knew what happened in the palace.

Now it is up to the ministers to deal with the affairs after His Majesty's death.

When the ministers arrived at the Pepper Palace, they also cried for the late emperor first.

But the ministers soon wiped away their tears and said:

"Empress Dowager, Empress. The country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Although Your Majesty has passed away, the Han Dynasty still needs a wise ruler."

What they meant by this was that Liu Hong was too incompetent. Another meaning was that the Han Dynasty did not have a crown prince yet, so a new emperor had to be established first.

The dead can be put aside for now.

At this time, Zhang Rang immediately stood up and said:

"Your Majesty was very fond of the Second Prince Liu Xie during his lifetime. Since Your Majesty passed away so suddenly this time, we should follow Your Majesty's wishes and support the Second Prince."

Now everyone's attention was focused on Zhang Rang.

Even Queen He Lian, who was confident in her plan, did not say anything. She was not in a hurry now.
