Chapter 227: The Crown Princess Suicides
Ye Wanhe slowly closed her eyes and said with her last bit of strength: "Your Highness, I can...can leave the palace...My funeral ceremony will be simple...no need to be too complicated. I want to be buried in peace as soon as possible and accompany our...children..."
Zhao Yun hugged Ye Wanhe tightly, he could no longer control his tears, they fell one by one.
It fell on Ye Wanhe's face.
"Wan He, you'll be fine, you'll be fine, someone, quickly get the imperial physician over."
"Here it comes, Your Highness. The imperial physician is here."
Li Quan ran to bring the imperial physician.
When the imperial physician came and saw Ye Wanhe lying in Zhao Yun's arms with a dagger stuck in her abdomen, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, knelt on the ground, and waited for the palace maid to put the handkerchief on Ye Wanhe's wrist to take her pulse.
After taking the pulse, the imperial physician said tremblingly, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess has passed away."
Zhao Yun glared at the imperial physician and said, "Take a good look at Wan He's pulse. How could Wan He have passed away? How is that possible?"
The imperial physician looked at the dagger in Ye Wanhe's abdomen and said, "Your Highness, please put the Crown Princess on the small couch first. I will ask the female physician to pull out the dagger from the Crown Princess' abdomen first."
Zhao Yun picked up Ye Wanhe and placed her on the small couch with heavy steps.
The female doctor stepped forward, gave an acupuncture injection and pulled out the dagger, then sprinkled hemostatic medicine on the wound and bandaged it.
Zhao Yun looked at Ye Wanhe lying motionless on the small couch. He felt a sharp pain in his head, a throbbing pain in his heart, and pain all over his body. "Her wound is no longer bleeding. When will she wake up?"
The female doctor knelt down tremblingly and said, "Your Highness... The Crown Princess has no pulse or breathing. She has passed away. Please accept my condolences, Your Highness."
Zhao Yun said angrily, "Get lost, and get someone with better medical skills. Li Quan, go to the Princess's residence now and ask the Princess to come over and diagnose the Crown Princess' pulse."
"Yes." Li Quan responded quickly and left the East Palace in a hurry.
Zhao Yun sat down in front of the small couch and held the breathless Ye Wanhe in his arms. "You won't leave me like this, Wanhe, wake up, wake up quickly. Auntie is a good doctor. She also has the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill. She can wake you up."
As Zhao Yun spoke, he stroked his finger across Ye Wanhe's cheek, his voice choked with sobs.
Zhao Yun endured the pain all over his body and silently hugged Ye Wanhe tightly.
In the East Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs all knelt on the ground, and no one dared to breathe.
Until Li Quan came with the eldest princess.
Yun Xiangye followed Xie Zhixuan inside and saw Ye Wanhe in Zhao Yun's arms. She quickly covered her lips with her hands and shed tears: "Sister, sister..."
Xie Zhixuan stepped forward and checked Ye Wanhe's wound.
Zhao Yun looked at Xie Zhixuan with tears in her eyes and said, "Aunt, Wanhe is okay, right? She will wake up, right?"
Xie Zhixuan looked at the tears in Zhao Yun's eyes, and then looked at Ye Wanhe, who was wearing her wedding dress in his arms, and said, "She is already dead, and she cannot be saved."
"Aunt, is the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill useless?"
Xie Zhixuan said: "The resurrection pill can only bring a person back from the gates of hell, but it cannot bring the dead back to life. Her injuries are too severe. She has already lost her life and there is no cure. You should express your condolences."
Zhao Yun looked helplessly at Ye Wanhe in his arms, "Why, why did she commit suicide when she was fine this morning..."
Yun Xiangye looked at the hole in Ye Wanhe's wedding dress, which was covered in dark red blood, and cried, "Sister He, sister, how could you commit suicide just because His Highness betrayed you? What would your uncle and aunt do?"
Zhao Yun looked at Yun Xiangye and asked, "What betrayal?"
Yun Xiangye bit her lip and said, "You dare not admit it? Do you know why my sister is so angry today that her lower abdomen hurts? It's because Yu Xihe and Miaomiao came to her today and said that you and Yu Xihe spent a night together in Yongxing City, and you betrayed my sister."
Zhao Yun realized it later, "Although I spent a night with her, I didn't do anything to Yu Xihe at all. Why didn't Wanhe explain it clearly and come to ask for my explanation?"
Zhao Yun thought back carefully and realized that Wan He had indeed asked for an explanation for the matter during the day, but he had not defended himself at that time and even said, "So what..."
At that time, he didn't know that Ye Wanhe would misunderstand that he had favored Yu Xihe.
Thinking about it carefully, it's no wonder that she thinks it's dirty and doesn't want me to touch her...
Zhao Yun fell into deep regret. He frowned and hugged Ye Wanhe tightly in his arms, "Wanhe, it's not what you think. I only have you, only you."
"It's not worth it for you to commit suicide for this matter. Wanhe, I didn't betray you."
Yun Xiangye cried and said, "This is just the last straw that broke the camel's back. My sister died because you forced and humiliated her time and time again!
You clearly know what your sister wants. She wants to be herself again, not the daughter of the Wei family. She never thought of being Wei Zhenzhu from the beginning. It is you who made her bear the crime of being unfilial and unkind.
The Great Sheng ruled the country with filial piety, and she was pointed at and called unfilial and unkind by people in the East Palace. How could she continue to live with dignity? "
Yun Xiangye said emotionally: "It's all your fault. You killed my sister! It's a pity that my sister couldn't return to her hometown until she died."
Zhao Yun let Yun Xiangye accuse him, his eyes full of regret and self-hatred, hating himself for not noticing that something was wrong with Ye Wanhe earlier...
Zhao Yun felt as if his whole body was broken into pieces, and the pain was so severe that he felt black in front of his eyes.
"Your Highness."
"Yun'er."
Xie Zhixuan went forward to support Zhao Yun and inserted the silver needle into Zhao Yun's acupoint.
Zhao Yun slowly woke up, tears welling in his eyes as he said, "Aunt, all of you go out. I want to be alone with Wan He."
Xie Zhixuan sighed: "Yun'er, you still have your father, the emperor, and your mother, and Yu'er, especially Yu'er... He has lost his mother and still needs you!"
Zhao Yun nodded.
However, Xie Zhixuan was still worried, so she took the dagger out and left the bedroom to Zhao Yun.
Xie Zhixuan walked out of the bedroom door, and His Majesty and the Queen also hurried over after receiving the news.
The queen looked at Xie Zhixuan and asked, "Sister, what happened?"
Xie Zhixuan sighed softly and said, "The Crown Princess committed suicide."
Queen Wei was surprised and asked, "What? She committed suicide?"
His Majesty was even more furious and said, "The Queen and I don't care about what she did to Yun'er. She committed suicide. It's good enough to apologize for her crime."
Queen Wei looked at His Majesty with disapproval. Even today when Zhao Yun was injured, she still protected Ye Wanhe. After Ye Wanhe committed suicide, Yun must have been heartbroken.
Empress Wei was about to go in, but Xie Zhixuan stopped her and said, "Let Yun'er accompany her for the last time. She committed suicide in her red wedding dress, so I'm afraid she has a lot of resentment. It would not sound good if the news of the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace committing suicide got out. The funeral should not be delayed, and she should be buried as soon as possible."
Queen Wei sighed. Although she blamed Ye Wanhe for causing her to suffer the pain of losing a loved one, she felt indescribably depressed when she saw Ye Wanhe, who was only 26 years old, die like this.
The most urgent task is to block the news of the Crown Princess' suicide and let Ye Wanhe rest in peace as soon as possible.
Queen Wei then ordered the maid beside her to find the palace lady to discuss the funeral rites for the Crown Princess.
Yun Xiangye put on the white dress handed to her by the palace maids and took off the jewelry on her hair. She looked up at the bright moon and stars in the sky. Her sister was only one step away from freedom...
