Chi Yu and Tang Wan arrived at the palace in the afternoon.
Chi Yu didn't know what was going on yet, his eyes and eyebrows were full of excitement: "My mother will definitely like you very much."
Tang Wan was a little uncertain: "Really? But your status is not equal to mine..." She seriously doubted whether a commoner like her could really marry the prince and become his wife in this ancient society with strict class structure.
"Don't worry, Mother won't care about this. When I was little, she often lamented that I wasn't a little girl anymore. She also painted many portraits of women. Although you may not believe it, I tell you, the women in Mother's paintings look a lot like you. She will definitely like you."
Chi Yu, as usual, held Tang Wan's hand and walked into the Pepper Room, but he did not hear the voices of his father, the emperor, and his mother, the empress.
Not only that, the entire hall was dead silent, and he felt inexplicably uneasy.
He grabbed a eunuch and raised his voice a little: "Where is my mother?"
The young eunuch trembled, his legs softened, and he knelt down: "To answer His Royal Highness, the Queen is in the Imperial Hospital."
"Why is my mother in the Imperial Hospital?"
Unable to bear his pressure, the young eunuch told the whole story: "Your Highness, the Marquis of Wu'an is plotting a rebellion. The Empress Dowager blocked an arrow for Your Majesty, which injured her lungs. She is now unconscious."
Chi Yu took a half step back, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he pulled Tang Wan and ran towards the Imperial Hospital like crazy.
On the other side, Chen Zhaoyi suddenly woke up, and her cheeks became a little redder. Chi Heng thought she suddenly felt better, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He hurriedly called for the imperial physician.
Chen Zhaoyi stopped him, half leaning on the bed, her breathing becoming more and more frequent, her body like a broken bellows, coughing twice with every breath.
Two figures, one in red and one in white, quickly rushed in.
She looked at the little girl in her memory and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
Chi Yu looked at the arrow that pierced her body and fell into great panic.
Chen Zhaoyi waved at Tang Wan, and after getting her approval, Tang Wan obediently moved over.
Chen Zhaoyi touched her face and said, "Good girl, you are Yu'er's sweetheart, right? Ahem..."
"Yes, I am Tang Wan, a commoner, paying my respects to Her Majesty the Queen."
"You don't have to be so polite. Let me... take a good... look at you."
She touched Tang Wan's hand and smiled warmly, "Ayu, this child, loves someone sincerely... You two must... continue to walk on in a good way. If there are any misunderstandings, explain them clearly."
Don't miss each other for so long like in the previous life. They will definitely live happily without her in this life.
Tang Wan looked at the woman in front of her. It was clearly the first time they met, but she always felt like she had seen her somewhere before. Looking at her appearance at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart and a sore nose, so she nodded.
Chen Zhaoyi waved at Chi Yu again, and the two of them sat beside her bed. Chi Yu held back her tears and said, "Mother, the imperial physician can also cure you, right?"
He looked at her, hoping to get the answer he wanted.
Chen Zhaoyi didn't answer him, but just said, "You guys, live your life well, promise me."
The two nodded in agreement with her, and she smiled with satisfaction.
She looked at Tang Wan hopefully, her voice hesitant: "Good boy, can you call me... Mother?"
"Mother." Tang Wan blurted out, as if she had called her a thousand times.
"Oh." She smiled so hard that her teeth and eyes were not visible, and it seemed that her heart didn't hurt so much anymore.
"Ah Heng, come here."
Chi Heng walked to her side and held her hand: "Promise me that even when I'm gone, you will live well, okay?"
Chi Heng is very stubborn and a little bit sick. He knows deeply that he cannot survive without Chen Zhaoyi.
I just looked at her sad eyes and couldn't say no.
I could only nod and said in a hoarse voice: "I promise you."
Chen Zhaoyi smiled with relief. She asked everyone to leave, leaving only Chi Heng.
"Ah Heng, I'm going to tell you a secret that no one else knows."
"I was very bad in my previous life, very bad... I hurt you, but when I died, you came to pick me up. You said you were afraid I would be alone... The road to the underworld would be too lonely. At that time, I thought, if I could have a chance to start over, I would make it up to you."
Tears streamed down her face, and Chi Heng was no longer able to speak.
He just kept repeating: "I can think of a way, just wait a little longer, just wait a little longer."
"I can't wait any longer, Chi Heng, I still want to, I still want to tell you, I..." I love you, I don't want to see you cry.
However, before she could finish the second half of the sentence, she had already collapsed on the bed and lost her voice forever.
"Ayi, Ayi? Ayi!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Chi Heng called out loudly, but his lover would never respond to him again.
Chen Zhaoyi is dead.
Her soul floated in the air, but did not dissipate. Instead, it followed Chi Heng.
She saw many people crying at her funeral.
She wasn't as annoying as she had been in her previous life, and her cousin started crying and said she was a complete idiot.
She wanted to curse, but when she realized they couldn't hear her, she shut up.
But she was still scolding Chi Heng.
Chi Heng is a liar.
He said he wanted to live a good life, but it was all a lie.
