Chapter 216: I've done my duty
"That's fine. Does she expect something she created to go to heaven? If anyone can do it, then everyone can become an immortal or a god."
The Queen Mother didn't believe Bu Ruo's words. She just hugged those things tightly and muttered to herself: "No, it will be useful, it will definitely be useful. I looked these up from books. Each one is made with great care, without any mistakes. Even the blood is my own."
"It will definitely be useful, it will definitely be useful..."
Suddenly, the Queen Mother looked up at the tablet on the long table beside her: "Your Majesty, I will come to you now, okay? This time I will definitely make you fall in love with me, I definitely can..."
As the words fell, the empress dowager suddenly found strength to break free from the guards and rushed straight towards the long table where the tablet was placed.
The late emperor was so frightened that he danced with joy, and finally hid directly behind the founding ancestor: "No! No, no! You can die if you want, but can you die farther away? I'm already dead, so please let me go!"
"Ruo'er, Ruo'er, please don't let her come to me. I've finally been able to live a shameless life with your mother, and I can't let her mess it up."
"Ruo'er, did you hear that? Father is begging you to help him for Lan'er's sake. Father will remember you..."
Looking at the late emperor's expression, Bu Ruo almost laughed out loud, and even Xiao Yulan beside him was speechless.
"She is not dead yet. Come, take her back to her palace. She does not need medical treatment and cannot be buried in the imperial mausoleum after her death."
After Xiao Yulan finished speaking, the guards carried the man out. But even so, the unconscious empress dowager still held a talisman tightly in her hand, as if this was the only way to feel at ease.
Seeing that the person was not dead, the late emperor patted his chest and stood up: "Ruo'er, that vicious woman is not dead now, but if she dies one day, will she come to find me... Ruo'er, Ruo'er, answer me. If you don't answer me, I... I am panicking."
Bu Ruo glanced in the direction of the tablet and said, "The Queen Mother harmed countless concubines and princes throughout her life, even the fetuses in her womb. People like her will only go to hell after death. That is her karma and retribution."
Everyone present heard it. Xiao Hanfei looked at Bu Ruo as if he were looking at his own faith. Hearing that there would be retribution, he leaned over and whispered, "Aunt Imperial... is there really retribution for bad things?"
"Well...most of the time, yes, but it depends on the situation. For example, what you're doing now, eliminating harm for the people, although it may cost lives, it has prevented war and saved countless lives. The merits and demerits will offset each other, and if you continue to benefit the people in the future, you will naturally be rewarded."
Xiao Hanfei felt more at ease after hearing this: "Auntie, for example... I like to curse people, so... I curse my own father and say bad things about him. Will there be retribution?"
Bu Ruo turned her head to look at him, not wanting him to feel too much pressure, so she smiled and said, "He was asking for trouble, and you helped him. You are his retribution, and you are accumulating virtue."
Xiao Yulan: ...
Xiao family ancestors: ...
When Xiao Hanfei heard Bu Ruo's words, he suddenly had an idea and bowed to Bu Ruo: "Thank you, aunt. I understand."
The emperor looked at the three people not far away, his face ashen and his voice hoarse: "Forget it, it's useless to say anything more. After all, I am defeated. Kill me."
Xiao Yulan helped Bu Ruo stand up and said, "Don't worry, you will die naturally when the time comes."
"Brother Emperor, I have come today to see you for the last time. You will also have retribution for what you have done. In the afterlife, you will be reunited with the Queen Mother, and we will suffer punishment together. You will not be reborn as a human, and even if you are reincarnated, you will be in the lower realms."
The three lower realms: the realm of animals, the realm of evil spirits, and the realm of hell.
The emperor watched them leave, and suddenly, without realizing what was going on, he shouted, "Ninth brother, Ninth brother, wait a minute. I know I was wrong. I really do know I was wrong."
"I shouldn't have taken your throne, I shouldn't have poisoned my father to death, and I shouldn't have poisoned you and sent people to kill you and your princess. Please forgive me, please forgive me."
"Princess Zhan, Princess Zhan, I shouldn't have collaborated with the enemy and put your father and brother to death, but they are still alive. Please let me go, I beg you to let me go. I don't want to die, I really don't want to die..."
As the door of the bedroom closed, the emperor's crying and wailing were isolated.
"Humph, now you're scared. What were you doing before? I really thought he wasn't afraid of death."
Xiao Yulan walked slowly holding Bu Ruo's hand, and lovingly raised his hand to tidy up her hair: "What did you do? You made him so scared."
Bu Ruo chuckled: "Actually, I didn't do anything. I just let him take a stroll in the underworld in his sleep. After all, he is your royal brother. As his sister-in-law, it is always right for me to take him to familiarize himself with the future environment in advance."
"I took him on a tour of the Eighteen Levels of Hell, showing him all the different punishments. Um... I even took him on a tour of the Hungry Ghost Realm. I was worried his memory might be failing him as he got older, so I took him there every day. I was completely dedicated to my duties."
Bu Ruo said this without hiding it from anyone. Xiao Hanfei, who was standing by, felt his back soaked with sweat after hearing this. He wanted to kneel down on the spot and kowtow to himself three times, thanking himself for not going against the couple.
From that day on, Xiao Hanfei wished he could put his imperial aunt on the table and worship her.
…
Four days later, the emperor passed away and Xiao Hanfei succeeded to the throne. He appointed Xiao Yulan as regent and sent countless good things to the regent's palace.
Jin Congcong, who was helping the housekeeper to record, looked at the boxes of things being carried in with his eyes smiling. He looked at this and touched that, waiting for the eunuch who was announcing the things to call out his name.
After all, the emperor has rewarded Cen Nan, Cen Bei and Bi'er, so how could he not have his own?
Bu Ruo sat on a chair nearby, watching someone jumping up and down, and sighed, "You say he's lazy... He's busy from morning till night, but it's hard to tell what he actually does. You say he's stupid, but he can count to ten and knows how to get money and treasures for himself, but... it's quite confusing."
Bi'er was amused by her master. "Little Divine Doctor Jin is not stupid. He is very sharp. He is afraid that Bu Yanfu will steal his work, so he gets up at dawn every day to sweep the front yard. After sweeping, he goes back to sleep. After you wake up, he will go to clean our yard. And he will definitely arrive before Bu Yanfu."
"And I saw clearly that the young doctor Jin had been sweeping the yard these past few months while he kept glancing at Bu Yanfu, fearing she might harm the princess. I almost saw his eyes squinting."
Just as the master and servant were laughing, Jin Congcong's unbelievable voice came over...
"How could there be no mine?! How could there be no mine?!"
