Chapter 388 The more you envy her, the uglier you become
Tuoba Ruoli looked at Jiang Niyue lying motionless on the ground, stunned at first, and then in disbelief.
"impossible!"
“That’s not true!”
"She must be faking it!"
"How could anyone possibly be so willing to die!"
Tuoba Ruoli screamed madly, as if she was caught up in some emotion.
"I want to see for myself whether you are really dead!"
Tuoba Ruoli was about to check Jiang Niyue's body when Lingzhu and the guards saw her and immediately tried to stop her.
The madam is already dead, how could they allow anyone to touch her body so casually!
Tuoba Ruoli didn't know martial arts, so naturally she had no way to stop these people.
But she still has Qiongqi.
Soon, Tuoba Ruoli ordered Qiongqi to push Lingzhu and others aside.
With Qiongqi guarding, Lingzhu and others had no way to get close, and naturally had no way to stop Tuoba Ruli.
Tuoba Ruoli sniffed her breath, checked her pulse and heartbeat, and finally felt nothing.
She was still unwilling to give up, so she just waited quietly by the side.
But as time passed, Jiang Niyue still didn't move.
Not only did he not regain consciousness, but his body even began to stiffen and cool down.
Looking at Jiang Niyue like this, no matter how unwilling Tuoba Ruoli was, she had to believe that Jiang Niyue was really dead.
"How could it be..."
Tuoba Ruoli stood up and stumbled to the side.
She just walked away staggeringly. Although Qiongqi was confused, he looked at Lingzhu and others and followed her.
Seeing Tuoba Ruoli and Qiongqi leaving, Lingzhu and others did not dare to hesitate at all and hurriedly took Jiang Niyue's body down the mountain.
They must rush back to the capital and return to the palace as soon as possible.
Maybe, you can even meet the emperor!
Maybe the emperor has other ideas!
Lingzhu didn't dare to cry, for fear that crying would waste time.
After stumbling down the snowy mountain, the group immediately got on the carriage and began to rush on their way.
Half a day later, what Lingzhu didn't expect was that they actually ran into Wei Zhao head-on!
Wei Zhao was riding on a horse, looking dusty and exhausted, and it was obvious that he had come here in a hurry.
"emperor!"
Lingzhu shouted and knelt directly on the carriage.
Seeing Ling Zhu's actions, Wei Zhao's heart skipped a beat and a bad guess came to his mind.
The bright smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"aunt."
Wei Zhao spoke with difficulty.
"Where's Mother?"
Although he asked this question, Wei Zhao didn't dare to think about what kind of answer he would get.
What he was afraid of hearing was the answer he didn't want to hear at all.
Just as he was nervous and uneasy, Lingzhu started crying.
"Your Majesty....The Madam...she's gone!"
boom!
Wei Zhao only felt a buzzing sound in his head, as if a huge bell was hitting violently in his head.
The sound made his ears hurt, his head dizzy and his eyes swam, and he could not hear anything else.
With a sway of his body, he fell off the horse and landed heavily on the ground.
"emperor!"
"Your Majesty, how are you?"
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Everyone was startled and rushed forward to help.
Wei Zhao was helped up by others, but he didn't care about it at all. He just looked straight at Ling Zhu.
Even though there was a white light in front of his eyes, he couldn't see the spiritual bamboo clearly at all, and could only see a vague outline, but he was still unwilling to look away.
"Aunt Lingzhu, what did you just say?"
"Where is my mother?"
Lingzhu almost cried out loud and didn't know how to answer this question.
But not answering won’t work either!
Ling Zhu could only try her best to hold back her tears and tell the truth, "Madam...she's dead."
Even though he had guessed it just now, Wei Zhao's heart still sank after hearing it with his own ears.
He staggered and tried to move forward, but just as he took a step, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"emperor!"
Everyone gathered around again, trying to support Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao exerted force and pushed them all out, then continued walking towards the carriage.
Lingzhu did not stop him nor did he try to persuade him.
She just moved aside a little, opened the carriage door, and knelt on one side so that Wei Zhao could see Jiang Niyue clearly in the carriage.
In the carriage, Jiang Niyue lay there quietly, looking like she was asleep.
But if you look closely, you can see that Jiang Niyue's face is too pale at this moment, and there is no movement in her chest at all.
"Mother...."
Wei Zhao called out tentatively, but received no response.
"Mother!"
Wei Zhao shouted again, got on the carriage, and knelt beside Jiang Niyue.
The others didn't dare to make any sound and all knelt on the ground.
Wei Zhao knelt beside Jiang Niyue, looking at her face. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a long time, Wei Zhao finally spoke.
"Aunt Lingzhu, how did mother die?"
Ling Zhu did not dare to hesitate for a moment and quickly recounted what had just happened from beginning to end.
When Wei Zhao heard what had happened, he was also filled with shock.
He really didn't expect that things would be so coincidental.
If only he could be faster!
If he could have seen his mother before she went to the snowy mountains, would all this have not happened?
If he hadn't asked his mother to leave the capital, would Tuoba Ruoli have found her so easily?
If he hadn't brought his mother back from Dayong, would his mother have died?
These thoughts appeared in Wei Zhao's mind one by one, torturing him to the point where he would rather die than live.
Lingzhu felt so distressed when she saw Wei Zhao like this.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Please take care of yourself!"
"Madam said that you should live well!"
"Madam definitely doesn't want the Emperor to be so distressed!"
Ling Zhu's persuasion had no effect on Wei Zhao.
At this moment, a tiger roar suddenly sounded outside.
Suddenly hearing this sound, all the guards stood up from the ground and drew their swords.
They saw Qiongqi flying above their heads, and Tuoba Ruoli was standing on Qiongqi's back.
Tuoba Ruoli chuckled, "Wei Zhao, your mother is dead, don't you want revenge?"
Hearing Tuoba Ruoli's voice, Wei Zhao immediately got out of the carriage.
Despite being glared at by Wei Zhao, Tuoba Ruoli was not afraid at all and still had a bright smile on her face.
"Don't stare at me like that, I'm scared!"
He said he was afraid, but the smile on his face was very bright.
Wei Zhao just looked at Tuoba Ruoli coldly without saying a word.
Wei Zhao didn't say anything, but Tuoba Ruoli was unwilling to remain silent.
"Wei Zhao, stop glaring at me like that. This isn't my fault. Your mother died because of you!"
"No! To be exact, it's because of Yu Youning!"
"If you didn't stand on Yu Youning's side and help Yu Youning, how could I possibly come to find your mother? If you were willing to help me, how could I deal with your mother?"
"So you can't blame me! If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for choosing the wrong person! But now, you still have a chance! As long as you help me deal with Yu Youning from now on, no one around you will die. Otherwise, all your loved ones will die because of this!"
Wei Zhao sneered when he heard what Tuoba Ruoli said.
"Then let them die."
In this world, there are only two people he cares about the most.
One is his mother.
The other one is Yu Youning.
There are only two people my mother cares about the most.
One is him.
One of them is Youning!
In order to prevent him from being threatened and to protect Youning, the mother would rather choose to die.
How could he let his mother die in vain!
Youning has nothing to do with her mother's death!
If it weren't for Youning, he and his mother would have died long ago!
As for the people of the Nanzhao royal family, what do they have to do with him!
If it weren't for his mother's desire to live a better life, he would never have become the emperor.
Wei Zhao's answer was completely beyond Tuoba Ruoli's expectations.
Tuoba Ruoli looked at Wei Zhao in disbelief. "Your mother died because of Yu Youning, and you still want to protect Yu Youning? Is your mother less important than Yu Youning in your heart? Did your mother die in vain?"
"Mother died because of you." Wei Zhao looked at Tuoba Ruoli, "You don't think you're so incorruptible that you can confuse right and wrong?"
The smile on Tuoba Ruoli's face completely disappeared after hearing Wei Zhao's words.
She really didn't expect it.
Wei Zhao and his mother actually value Yu Youning so much!
One would rather die than let his son be threatened.
Even though a mother had died, she was still unwilling to blame Yu Youning.
What’s so good about Yu Youning!
Thinking this in her heart, Tuoba Ruoli could no longer hold back and asked this question directly.
"What's so good about Yu Youning that makes you so worthy of doing this for her?"
"Of course you don't know how good Youning is, because you're just jealous of her! The more you envy her, the uglier you become!"
Tuoba Ruoli was enraged by these words, and her facial features seemed distorted.
"I'm ugly?"
Tuoba Ruoli sneered.
"Then I'll let you see today how you die in my hands!"
"Qiongqi, eat them all!"
Qiongqi roared angrily and swooped down towards Wei Zhao.
But before it could reach Wei Zhao, Teng Snake suddenly flew over from the side and swung its tail to knock it away.
This change came too suddenly, and Qiongqi had no idea of it. His huge body turned many times in the air before stopping.
Qiongqi was not seriously injured, but Tuoba Ruoli, who was standing on Qiongqi's back, was in a miserable state.
She was almost thrown out, and she grabbed Qiongqi's hair tightly to avoid falling.
At this time, Qiongqi was high in the sky. If she was thrown out, the outcome would be predictable, and she would die.
