"No, just in case! I must confirm for myself whether His Majesty has truly passed away!"
In order to avoid causing turmoil in the country.
The Emperor's funeral.
The Empress Dowager chose to keep it a secret.
Only after the emperor had his concubines come to see him off.
Some of the lower-ranking people cried terribly!
Because the emperor died.
This means they will be buried with them!
Only those of high rank could survive.
The Empress Dowager addressed the crowd.
"I am a woman, and I understand women's hearts."
"I have decided to forgo the matter of being buried with the deceased."
"You can live well in this harem. I will give you everything you are entitled to."
"Alright, stop crying, everyone. Come and say goodbye to your husbands."
Upon hearing that he wouldn't have to be buried with the deceased...
Some of those who agreed immediately laughed.
Of course.
Even in front of the Empress Dowager, one cannot laugh too obviously.
I was only happy for a moment.
The Sparrow Consort stood before the coffin.
I looked closely at the face inside the coffin.
It is indeed Ye Ling.
He had his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.
She slept peacefully.
That's right.
She was definitely asleep.
Of course it's impossible for him to really die!
I have a little princess as my lucky star to assist me.
How could anything possibly happen!
Perfect.
Taking advantage of my passing.
Let me find out which of the concubines in this harem are truly heartbroken for me.
Of all the civil and military officials in the court, which ones are truly loyal to me?
Consort Que reached out and touched the Emperor's face.
Um!
So refreshing!
"Your Majesty, I haven't even had a chance to serve you in bed yet, and you've already left me all alone!"
"How am I supposed to get through these empty, lonely, and cold days alone?"
"I will go with you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Qingzhi rolled her eyes in annoyance.
While touching the face, they would also check if the emperor's pulse was still beating.
That's so low-class!
but.
Since you have already stated your position.
Then I will grant your wish!
That way you won't have to act so exaggeratedly here!
then.
Xu Qingzhi immediately replied.
"Although the Empress Dowager exempted him from being buried alive with the dead."
"But since Consort Que is so deeply in love with the Emperor and is willing to follow him to the death!"
"Then let's grant Consort Sparrow's wish!"
"Guards, bring poisoned wine!"
The Sparrow Consort was stunned when she heard this!
The tears and snot that had just fallen were instantly sucked back in!
I'll blanch it!
I was just saying!
I never intended to actually be buried with him!
Don't you know how intelligent you are?
What? You didn't notice the problem with my insincere words?!
No, no, that's not right.
If my feigned attitude is confirmed.
Is there any place for me to survive in this harem?
The Empress Dowager sees that I have no true feelings for the Emperor.
I will be spared from being buried alive with the dead immediately!
They just threw Ga into the coffin!
"Que Fei immediately replied."
"Sister, I truly wish to follow the Emperor in death!"
"But my sister's father can't bear to part with her!"
"My sister is also afraid. If Father finds out that she will be buried alive with him, will he be furious?"
Hmph!
You don't want my father's anger to reach its maximum, and for him to lead his troops to utterly destroy the Great Yuan City, do you?
You know what's important!
The Empress Dowager quickly came to the rescue.
"The Consort Que has only been married to the Emperor for less than half a month."
"She never truly served the emperor, so it is truly unfair to make Consort Que die with him."
"Quefei, I understand your intentions."
"You shall remain in the palace and serve as an assistant to the Imperial Noble Consort."
The Sparrow Consort breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will certainly do it!"
The Empress Dowager was internally ranting and raving.
What should be done?
They were instructed to immediately inform Hungary.
Tell the Great Xiongnu to send troops south immediately.
Will they destroy my Great Yuan Dynasty?!
Go and deliver the message!
They had fallen right into a trap that the emperor had set in advance!
I'll wait and see!
Ye Sen cried very sadly.
"I want my father! I want my father! I don't want my father to die!"
"Grandmother! Mother! Please think of a way to save Father!"
He was unaware of his father's plans.
Ye Sen at this very moment.
It's like a child who has lost his father.
I cried because I was so sad and heartbroken.
Ye Mu and Ye Chen both looked sorrowful.
But she clenched her teeth tightly, refusing to let the tears fall!
After Ye Mu looked at Ye Ling.
Raise your head.
He asked Xu Qingzhi stubbornly.
"Mother, is Father really gone?"
Xu Qingzhi nodded.
"yes."
"Your subject, your subject is reluctant, but you also know."
"The matter of life and death is something that no one in this world can avoid."
"Your subject is still young and cannot share the heavy responsibilities with Your Majesty."
"But I am willing to study hard and practice martial arts diligently."
"I only hope that one day I can grow up to be like my father was back then."
"May our Great Yuan Dynasty remain forever secure, and may our people live in peace and prosperity."
Ye Chen nodded.
"I'm willing to be my second brother's best helper!"
A faked death.
It allowed everyone to see through the difference between sincerity and pretense.
The Empress Dowager sighed inwardly.
As expected, this child was raised by Xu Qingzhi.
They have the air of someone who can shoulder great responsibilities!
Xu Qingzhi was also moved that they began to grow into the kind of people Ye Ling had hoped for back then.
Ye Qianqian, held in Consort Jin's arms, glanced at Ye Ling.
