"Ah Xi, you find it unbelievable too, don't you?"
“I used to laugh at Princess Xinping with you, saying she was love-struck.”
"I've explained what 'love-obsessed' means to you before. It's the kind of fool who's willing to give up everything for love."
Yesterday I laughed at others for being foolish, today I am also a foolish person.
"Only when you love do you realize that 'where your heart leads, you can't help yourself.'"
Xie Yuan held Helian Jue's hand, his voice low, almost a murmur.
“Ah Xi, if you leave, there will never be anyone in this world who will love me, value me, and understand me like you do.”
"I simply cannot imagine what life would be like without you."
"We'll share the same bed in life and the same grave in death! Now that you're gone, I will never live on alone!"
As he spoke, Xie Yuan was already in tears.
Ignoring her tears, she continued, "Axi, what do you think about us not being buried in the imperial mausoleum after we die?"
"Imperial tombs are wonderful, but the world is never short of tomb raiders. Not to mention others, isn't there Hou Jingting in our vanguard battalion?"
"No matter how sturdy an imperial tomb is, it will not escape the shovels of tomb raiders after decades or centuries."
"I can't imagine that one day our coffins will be damaged and our remains scattered all over the ground."
"Or perhaps we should just burn to ashes. You are in me, and I am in you, for a thousand years, ten thousand years, never to be separated!"
The shadow guards hiding in the shadows couldn't help but shudder when they heard Xie Yuan say something about "burning to ashes".
Good heavens, I always thought that saints were crazy enough.
Unexpectedly, the usually wise and elegant Empress was even more insane than the Emperor.
After death, they refused to leave behind even a complete corpse.
"Crushing bones and scattering ashes" is the cruelest revenge when hatred reaches its extreme.
The Empress, on the other hand, actually volunteered to be "annihilated"!
In ancient times, the principle was to "treat the dead as if they were alive."
Especially kings, nobles, and generals, who hoped that they would enjoy the same things in life as they did in death.
That's why there are such massive mausoleums, priceless burial goods, and even human sacrifices.
Ordinary people, if conditions permit, also hope to have a complete body after death and be buried in peace!
"Don't build an imperial mausoleum. Just bury our ashes in a secluded place where no one can find them!"
"By the way, some trees can live for hundreds or even thousands of years, such as ginkgo."
"We can plant a ginkgo tree... Seven years later, we will still be resting underground, with only each other and no one to disturb us!"
The shadow guards: ...
How terrifying!
Indeed, they are people who have witnessed the bloody hell before, and they are not easily intimidated.
However, the Empress's words truly sent chills down their spines and filled them with dread.
Xie Yuan: ...
What's so special about this? In later generations, people have long been accustomed to cremation.
If she weren't afraid of going too far, she would have wanted her ashes scattered at sea after she died.
"But don't worry, I won't rashly seek death!"
"I believe you will wake up!"
"I'm waiting for you. We still have a lifetime to spend together."
"Chang'an New City is already taking shape. It is a huge city, larger than Hexian New City and Crescent Moon New City."
"It can accommodate a million people. In the prosperous Zhou Dynasty, all nations come to pay tribute. Ah Xi, you will surely become an emperor who will be remembered in history."
"And I will always stand by your side, sharing with you this magnificent world and its prosperity!"
"Ah Xi, wake up, I really can't hold on any longer—"
In the end, Xie Yuan buried his face in Helian Jue's arm, and a torrent of tears instantly soaked his sleeve.
Helian Jue's fingers twitched slightly; he longed to reach out and grasp A Yuan's hand.
Xie Yuan's words today really touched him deeply.
The phrase "turn to ashes" in particular resonated deeply with him.
yes!
Why didn't I think of that before?
Even if it's just a double coffin, he's still separated from A-Yuan.
Then there are tomb raiders like Hou Jingting, who only care about collecting rare treasures and don't care about the corpses at all.
When the time comes, the corpse will be trampled on, or even torn to pieces and scattered. How can he live and die with A Yuan then?
Burn them to ashes and bury them together.
You are in me, and I am in you!
good!
As expected of my A-Yuan, he's just as crazy as I am at heart.
Helian Jue was satisfied and deeply moved.
He instinctively wanted to wake up.
But at the last moment, he held back.
And one more thing, the most crucial thing, he must be sure of!
Xie Yuan: ...That's crazy enough!
Fortunately, she was well prepared.
...
Late at night, Xie Yuan lay on the low couch beside the bed and "slept soundly".
"This anesthetic powder is really effective!"
A female bodyguard quietly looked around in front of the low couch, and only after confirming that Xie Yuan had fallen into a deep sleep did she begin to act.
She searched carefully around the low couch for a while, and finally found a dagger under the pillow.
Whoosh!
The female shadow guard gently drew her dagger, its sharpness fully revealed.
Hmm, this is a very sharp weapon.
Of course, that's not the point. The point is that the blade of the dagger glows with a deep blue light.
"poisonous!"
The female shadow guard was startled and quickly brought the dagger to her nose to smell it.
The female shadow guard was an expert in poisons. Just by looking at the color and smell, she could tell: "It's a deadly poison that kills on contact with blood!"
Good heavens, how did Her Majesty the Queen manage to bring such a terrifying weapon into the royal tent?
