Chapter 515 Jingzhen My Son
They had a good night's sleep, but both of them woke up early the next day.
As newlyweds, they had to go to the palace early the next morning to pay their respects and offer tea.
Although Ye Cangling and Chu He, one of them locked himself up and the other was sick, they were both still alive, so I still had to go and say hello.
Furthermore, he also had to go to the palace to meet the current emperor, Ye Jingtian, who had made great efforts for their marriage.
When Yun Ran opened her eyes in a daze, the seat next to her was empty. She yawned and sat up, and saw that Ye Jingzhen was already dressed neatly and had even packed out all the clothes she would need to wear when entering the palace today.
Yun Ran suddenly woke up from her sleep. Before getting married, Yin Qianlan told her that as Princess Jing'an, she would have to take care of the daily life of His Royal Highness Prince Jing'an.
But she overslept on her first wedding day.
"Brother Xiaojing, I can do it myself."
She kicked her shoes and got off the ground. Ye Jingzhen turned around when he heard the sound and saw that she was awake. He smiled and said, "Sit down."
After saying that, he called out, "Danqiao, Qingchan."
Two maids who had been waiting outside pushed the door open and came in, carrying hot water and towels for washing.
Two maids helped Yun Ran wash and dress, and then helped her to tie her hair into a beautiful bun and put on a hairpin with swaying tassels. Just as they were about to draw her eyebrows and apply lip balm, they were waved away by Ye Jingzhen.
Yun Ran was a little surprised when he saw him pick up the ink to draw his eyebrows. "You can do this?"
Ye Jingzhen raised an eyebrow, pinched Luo Zidai with one hand, and gently pinched her chin with the other hand: "Don't move."
"I'm a good painter, so drawing eyebrows is no problem for me."
Seeing his confident look, Yun Ran pursed her lips and hid her smile.
She waited to see the joke, but a moment later, she heard Ye Jingzhen's slightly smug voice: "Look?"
She turned her head to look at the bronze mirror on the dressing table, and saw the beautiful woman in the mirror with willow-shaped eyebrows, red lips, and eyes like lacquer. She smiled.
"nice."
"That's right," Ye Jingzhen smiled lightly, took her chin, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, "Your husband knows a lot more, you will know it later."
Yun Ran smiled, her eyes curved: "Brother Xiao Jing is the best."
"Silly girl," Ye Jingzhen took her hand, "Let's go."
When the two of them left the house, Gao Ziyang had already prepared the carriage, and Qingchan was waiting at the door.
Seeing the two of them coming out hand in hand, he said with a smile: "Prince and Princess, please get in the car!"
Gao Ziyang opened the curtain and the two of them got into the carriage together.
Inside the imperial palace, in Chengqian Hall.
When Ye Jingtian saw the two people walking into the hall hand in hand with joy on their faces, his brows were also filled with smiles.
The three of them talked for a while, and Ye Jingtian gave them a lot of rewards. Then the two of them turned to see Ye Cangling and Chu He.
It was still the same bedroom as before. There were two guards guarding the door. Anji was waiting outside with two maids, apparently to deliver food.
"Your Majesty, it's been a whole day and night. Please eat something!"
"Your Majesty, I understand... His Royal Highness Prince Jing'an is getting married. Are you thinking of Empress Shuxian again?"
"But you have to eat something, otherwise he won't be able to hold on!"
An Ji was still trying to persuade him, but Ye Jingzhen took Yun Ran forward and asked, "What's going on with Father?"
Seeing that it was Ye Jingzhen and the other two, Anji was terrified and quickly knelt down to salute: "Your servant greets Prince Jing'an and Princess Jing'an."
"Your Highness, the Emperor has been locked up in his bedroom since yesterday morning. I brought servants to bring him food, but he refused to see me. If this continues, I'm afraid..."
"Didn't he open the door when you came last night?" Ye Jingzhen frowned.
"Last night, when I came to deliver food, I was driven away by the Emperor. I was thinking about the wedding of you and the Princess last night. He must have been thinking of his time with Queen Shuxian and was heartbroken, so he wanted to come again today. Who would have thought..."
"How long have you been here? He hasn't opened the door or responded?" Ye Jingzhen's face became increasingly ugly.
"It wasn't long before I was just following you and the princess..."
"Hey! Hey! Your Highness Prince Jing'an! Your Highness! You...what are you doing?!"
Just as Anji was shouting, Ye Jingzhen let go of Yun Ran, strode directly up the stairs, and kicked open the door of the bedroom with a "bang".
After this loud noise, the house was dead silent.
Anji also realized something. He wanted to go in and take a look, but was discouraged by Ye Jingzhen's look.
Yun Ran followed. Ye Jingzhen hesitated for a moment, then took her hand and they entered the bedroom together.
Unlike the last time I came, the bedroom this time was clean and tidy. There was a portrait hanging on the wall, which showed Queen Shuxian sitting in formal attire.
Ye Jingzhen's breath was stifled. The two of them walked around the screen and saw Ye Cangling sitting at the desk with his back to them.
The two looked at each other and walked forward quickly.
"Father!"
Ye Jingzhen called out, but Ye Cangling did not respond.
He reached out and patted Ye Cangling's shoulder. The man sitting at the desk suddenly lowered his head.
Ye Cangling... is dead.
On the desk was a written letter, signed at the beginning: My son Jingzhen.
The flying and flamboyant characters read:
I have done many wrong things in my life, but most of them have been corrected. There is only one thing that was wrong from beginning to end, and it has lasted for my entire life.
In my life, I have three sons and two daughters. I lost my beloved at an early age and became crazy overnight. I have not been able to live a good life.
I have loved Anian madly all my life and have no regrets.
I have no regrets about Jingtian succeeding to the throne.
Anian cannot be resurrected, and I have no regrets.
I only regret...
Before I leave, this is one last thing I do for you...
At this point, all subsequent words were blurred by the splattered blood.
There was a hairpin inserted into Ye Cangling's chest. The hairpin was inserted very deep into his heart, and only the dazzling gilded phoenix on the head of the hairpin was exposed outside.
That was Jiang Nian's hairpin, which was pinned on Jiang Nian's body in the mausoleum that day.
Ye Jingzhen suddenly reached out and pulled the hairpin out of Ye Cangling.
The cold touch was just like Ye Cangling's stiff hand.
His nose suddenly felt sore and he staggered back two steps.
Yun Ran supported his arm at the right time.
She had also seen this hairpin in the tomb of Queen Shuxian.
In an instant, the two of them understood what the last thing Ye Cangling said was.
Finding a handkerchief, Ye Jingzhen wiped the blood off the hairpin and put it back in Ye Cangling's hand.
He took Yun Ran's hand and they walked out together.
Angie was still waiting outside the door, not knowing what was going on. Seeing the two men coming out with calm expressions, she felt a little at a loss.
Ye Jingzhen said calmly, "The Emperor… has passed away."
Angie:……!!!
Behind him, there were the sounds of Anji and the maids and guards crying and wailing.
Ye Jingzhen and Yun Ran walked hand in hand and walked out of the Imperial Garden.
The sun is shining brightly outside, the sky is blue, and the wind is warm. It is not a day suitable for sadness.
Yun Ran recalled Ye Cangling's abnormal behavior in the mausoleum that day.
At first, she just thought that Ye Cangling was old and had been poisoned, and had already become dilapidated, so he could not hold on.
Thinking about it now, he probably had already thought about dying at that time, but when he heard Ye Jingzhen talking about their marriage, the last bit of conscience in his heart still remained, and he decided to go along with it.
She thought of the letter on the desk again and turned her head to glance at Ye Jingzhen who had a calm expression.
"Brother Xiaojing, he is actually still..."
She wanted to say, "He actually still loves you," but she felt that the word "love" was not very appropriate, so she thought for a moment and said:
"He actually... still has you as his son in his heart."
"Maybe..."
Ye Jingzhen's voice was indifferent, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He opened his other clenched fist slightly, and suddenly, small pieces of paper scattered from between his fingers.
Yes, the weather is fine and the breeze is not dry, which is indeed not suitable for sadness.
