Emperor Yong looked at the Dragon-Slaying Sword for a long time.
He said: "I buried her myself and saw the coffin sealed with my own eyes."
"Your Majesty!" Hong Yusu's hair hung down. "Your Majesty, open the coffin once! She must be alive!"
Emperor Yong threw the Dragon Slaying Sword back to Hong Yusu and picked up his hair: "Hong Yusu! I used to indulge you too much! Now that she is gone, you still want to disturb her! She is my woman!"
"Your Majesty! Just open the coffin once! She must not be inside! Your Majesty!"
Seeing this, Xiao Pu hurriedly pulled Hong Yusu away and said, "General Hong, General Hong, don't confront His Majesty head-on! If you want to open the coffin, come secretly. If she is really alive, His Majesty will not blame you. If she is... you can close it again and it will be safe. You still have a daughter! Think about your wife and daughter!"
Hong Yusu retreated to the rooftop.
"Come and open the coffin at midnight." Xiao Pu lowered his voice. "You and I have been by His Majesty's side for many years. Even though he's silent now, if he gets really ruthless, you won't even know how people died. Have you forgotten how many old ministers suddenly died when he ascended the throne? How did you say they died?! Calm down!"
Hong Yusu closed his eyes and hugged Xiao Pu: "You know I love her, brother. It would have been great if she had gone with me in Shangyang County! I would never let her get pregnant so early..."
Xiao Pu sighed, and sighed again deeply: "You shouldn't have thought about this for a thousand times. How could you, you! Hey, if you must open the coffin, come at midnight, don't tell His Majesty... He is the Son of Heaven! He can decide the life and death of you, your wife and children! What's more, he did so many things in private to restore the reputation of your Hong family! Hey... You actually like his woman... And, you still like her until now, you really are..."
Hong Yusu let go of the Dragon Slaying Sword and staggered down. Jian Weiying took a look, handed the child to the wet nurse, ran down and supported him.
"Get out!" Hong Yusu pulled his hand away.
Jian Weiying lost her balance and leaned down——
"ah……!"
Hong Yusu frowned and reached out to pull it back!
"Don't touch me again! Go look after the kids!"
…
Jian Weiying loved too humbly, choking and running down to support him again: "You've been drinking...it's too high here...can we go back and have our fight?"
In front of Fu Tong'er's tomb in the imperial mausoleum, Lu Zhenzhi looked at Hong Yusu and his wife with a helpless smile on his lips, and the jade pendant under his left ear also swayed sadly.
He missed Fu Tong'er's little figure who used to chatter around him.
At that time, he was still a little annoyed.
When we first got together, it was lively.
After a long time, I felt that she was childish.
Too noisy!
Now, it's quiet.
She is dead.
No one is arguing anymore.
I want to hear her childish words, but I can't hear them anymore...
"Tong'er," Lu Zhenzhi patted Fu Tong'er's tombstone, just like patting Fu Tong'er's head, "You little girl, you have been sleeping for so long, why don't you get up and talk to me..."
He sighed heavily.
"Xiao Pu."
He hugged Fu Tong'er's tombstone and shouted.
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Pu came over and clasped his fists.
"What did you just say?"
…
quiet.
"Yes!" Xiao Pu clasped his fists and sank. "Your Majesty said that he should come to open the coffin at midnight. If it is really empty, Your Majesty will not blame him. If it is,... then he can close it secretly and keep his wife and children of the Hong family safe."
…
"Return to the palace."
"yes."
Midnight, lonely and cold.
Imperial Tomb of Great Yan.
Hong Yusu climbed up holding the Dragon Slaying Sword. As soon as he reached Fu Tong'er's tombstone, he saw a tall and strong figure like the King of Hell in the dark night.
"You're here." said the man.
Hong Yusu was startled: "Your Majesty came here late at night..."
"I came to see you open the coffin."
