Chapter 728 Concubine Yu Died
Outside the side hall of Yuxiu Palace, Fu Tai read the imperial edict solemnly and said,
"The Emperor has ordered that Concubine Yu is unwell and that a palace maid may take the order on her behalf. I have also ordered people to tidy up Fuxi Palace so that Concubine Yu can move in at any time."
After Fu Tai finished speaking, he saw Shu Hong walking out from the side hall and respectfully accepting the order. At the same time, Hua Yan's voice came weakly from inside the house.
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
Fu Tai had been told earlier, so he naturally didn't care about Concubine Yu's attitude of staying indoors. After leaving the imperial edict and the reward, he left Yuxiu Palace with the eunuchs who announced the edict.
Shu Hong held the imperial edict in her hands, but she didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
She was happy that Hua Yan got what she wanted, but she was worried that those gossipy concubines in the palace were making fun of her queen in private.
Just as she was thinking about it, a chubby little hand suddenly appeared next to her, trying hard to pry the imperial edict from her hand from bottom to top.
Shu Hong turned her head and saw Xue Shan coming over at some point, standing on tiptoe, as if he wanted to take the imperial edict.
Shu Hong immediately squatted down, handed her the imperial edict, and asked, "Miss Sha Sha, what do you want to do with this imperial edict?"
Xue Sha's chubby little face was very serious, "I just heard that Yue Yue was named the Fish Consort. This title is good and suitable for Hua Yan."
Shu Hong saw her expression and knew that she had misunderstood. She simply unfolded the imperial edict and pointed it out to her, and then explained in a low voice,
"It's not Princess Yu, but Princess Yu, which means beautiful jade."
Xue Sha gave a look that said you don’t understand, “This word must have been chosen by Ling Long. She specifically found a homonym for Fish.”
It has nothing to do with any jade or money.
In fact, Xue Sha guessed it right.
After successfully convincing Helian Yue to agree to make her a concubine, Si Linglong's first reaction was to make her Concubine Yu.
Although Helian Yue only intended to let Hua Yan have a nominal title, it was impossible for him to allow such a ridiculous title as "Fish Concubine" to appear in his harem.
So the two sides discussed and decided on the word "Yu".
Yu means the brilliance of jade.
There is also a saying that the flaws do not outweigh the merits.
It means that even if a piece of jade has flaws, it cannot conceal its brilliance as a piece of jade.
Just like Hua Yan, even though she is a companion mermaid who cannot transform herself into a full-body mermaid, it cannot conceal her brilliance.
I hope that this time she can get her wish, successfully transform into a mermaid, become a real mermaid, and be free from now on.
…
Xiang Tian stood in a corner of the corridor, watching the palace servants who announced the decree leave, and then looked towards the side hall with a solemn gaze.
He knew that she was recuperating there.
But even if she still had Yanyan's appearance, he would never see her again.
From the day they knew her identity, they had no reason to continue meeting each other.
Now that she had fulfilled Yanyan's wish and made her Concubine Yu, there was no need for her to meet her anymore.
If it weren't for their looks, they would have had no intersection at all.
Now, it’s just a matter of getting everything back on track.
Xiang Tian thought, it was time for him to leave.
After all, although Yanyan is gone, there are still two elderly people outside the palace who need his care.
He also did not intend to tell his adoptive parents the news of Yan Yan's death. He just wanted them to think that their daughter had become a noble in the palace and lived a rich and comfortable life in the palace.
The boy's gaze finally turned to the palace, not knowing what he was looking at.
After a long while, he turned around and left resolutely.
Since he had decided to leave, he packed up his belongings casually.
The eunuch's uniform was left behind, and the rest were some small personal belongings that couldn't even fill up a whole package.
Xiang Tian was putting things away while opening the cabinet. Then, his eyes fell on the bundle placed in the corner of the cabinet.
Inside was the secret guard uniform she gave to herself.
He still remembered the look of joy in her eyes when she saw him wearing this suit.
His finger hesitated for a moment on the bag, but Xiang Tian still reached out and took the bag with him.
Well, he just didn't want his baggage to look too stupid.
It's not for the purpose of leaving any memories.
After packing his bag, Xiang Tian went to the back hall the next day to ask for an audience, preparing to formally resign from Concubine Lang.
However, he was waiting outside the palace, and just as he was about to go in, he saw a young eunuch running in from the other end of the corridor, with a panicked look on his face, shouting,
"My queen!"
The young eunuch shouted as he ran over from the other end of the corridor, and finally fell to his knees outside the palace gate. Then, with a look of sorrow on his face, he choked and shouted, "Your Majesty! Concubine Yu has passed away!"
Xiang Tian: ...
He was stupid.
Si Linglong in the hall was also so frightened that she almost swallowed the water she used to rinse her mouth.
[Although I originally told Hua Yan that I would announce my death as soon as I recovered, but sister... am I dying too hastily? ? ? ]
