Chapter 698 Farewell
"Mom, it's okay. I can wait for you, Mom!" Qi Yan burst into tears.
"Alright, alright, let me sing a song for you. I can't bear to leave you either."
Shen Chuliu thought for a long time before humming softly.
'This is the time when flowers bloom
Dewy Rouge
Don't let the flowers wither This is the time of the full moon
The bright moon shines on the west building Cherish the moon and stay with it diligently
Don't let the moon slip away Such a beautiful scene
Like this sweet preparation
I hope the flowers always bloom
The moon is long and round and people live long...'
"Mom, I will be fine. Don't worry about me. Since... since mom is tired of this place, just... just go. I will be fine."
Qi Yan shed tears and hugged Shen Chuliu: "I will be a good prince, a good emperor, and... the best-looking emperor as you said."
"Okay, I'll tell you, your father, if there is an afterlife, we can meet again, maybe..."
She didn't finish, just smiled and said, "Tell him that I miss him very much."
After saying this, she stopped talking, leaned in Qi Yan's arms, and looked at the moonlight. In fact, it was just a new moon.
I smelled the fragrance of flowers in the small garden. I don’t know how long it took before I finally closed my eyes completely.
Qi Yan hugged her, buried his head in her neck and cried, but he couldn't utter a word.
Zhemei and others have all knelt down.
On March 11th of the 24th year of the Qingyuan reign, Concubine Jing died in Yufu Palace.
When the news spread, many people were shocked.
Shen Chuliu hid it so well that most people didn't know about it.
The queen heard the news and sighed, "Let's settle down."
Concubine Hui was doing needlework. When she heard the news, the needle pierced into her flesh and she couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Of course, she didn't hide it at the last moment, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
The next afternoon, the news reached the emperor.
In fact, Qi Yixiu set out for the palace only one day later than Qi Yan.
But the imperial carriage moves slowly after all.
After hearing the news, Qi Yixiu was speechless for a long time.
He was enveloped in a huge state of confusion.
Chusi and the others were kneeling, but he just waved his hand: "Go back first, and talk later."
Qi Yixiu returned to the palace on March 13th.
The Yufu Palace was in mourning and the prince was guarding it.
Qi Yixiu didn't dare to go for a while.
He didn't cry, nor did he want to cry, but he felt that everything was unreal. Just like the dream he had, it was not real at all.
He wanted to take a look, but Qi Yan stopped him.
"Father, mother said that if it's not good to watch, there's no need to watch it. She left a message, she said..." Qi Yan cried, "Mother said that if there is an afterlife, she might as well see you again. Maybe... maybe something, she didn't say, just said that she missed you very much."
Qi Yixiu stood in Yufu Palace, looking at the white everywhere, and said for a long time: "Miss me? If you miss me, why don't you wait for me?"
"Your mother is the best at talking nonsense. She has fooled me a lot over the years."
Qi Yan supported him: "But my mother didn't lie this time, she missed you."
Qi Yixiu was speechless.
He sat in the Yufu Palace, looking at everything here. It was clearly familiar, yet everything seemed so strange and terribly strange.
How come the most lively and eccentric one left? After an unknown amount of time, he finally said, "Your mother is always the most cunning. Look, she just had wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and she left in a hurry. Since then, whenever I think of her, I always think of her as beautiful and good. She is really cunning."
"But Dad, you've also seen her vomiting blood and on the verge of death." Qi Yan wiped his tears.
"She told me to be well. Although she didn't say it directly, she also hopes that you, Dad, will be well. She...she has been proud all her life and doesn't want to die in an ugly way. Now it's okay, it's okay...it's okay." Qi Yan said, squatting on the ground and crying.
The father and son stayed in Yufu Palace, one sitting, the other squatting. One was silent, the other crying.
After all, a noble concubine is just a noble concubine. In the Dayi Dynasty, there was no position below the empress and above the noble concubine.
As long as the queen is still alive, the imperial concubine cannot be posthumously conferred the title of queen.
However, fortunately Qi Yan was the crown prince, and he could be posthumously honored as long as he ascended the throne.
However, Qi Yan and Qi Yixiu both knew that Shen Chuliu didn't care about this.
So Shen Chuliu was sent away and Yufu Palace was locked up.
Qi Yixiu never dared to come here again.
After Yuanxiao left the palace, he found a house in the imperial city and lived there.
Since there were people at Nanny Zhang's house, she would naturally go back.
Later, Zhemei refused to serve Concubine Yang, so she simply left the palace and lived with Yuanxiao.
She doesn't want to get married.
However, I also saw that the white geese and orioles were all married, and their dowries were all prepared by Shen Chuliu.
Everyone has a place to go.
When Zizhu Zirui learned that Shen Chuliu was gone, she cried so hard that her heart almost broke.
But everyone has his or her own life. Even after crying, you still have to live a good life.
Yinhu and Jinsuo refused to leave, so they stayed to take care of the small garden and look after the Yufu Palace.
Shen Chuliu distributed a lot of money to her people, so they lived a good life in the palace.
She arranged everything well, even promoting Concubine Yang to the position of imperial concubine.
She also left a message for Lady Yang: You are lively and kind-hearted, so you don't have to fight for a high position. Someone will protect you and keep you safe.
The one protecting her is Concubine Hui, who is also the Crown Princess.
Concubine Yang was crying like a tearful person.
As for the rest of the people, Shen Chuliu felt that there was nothing he needed to worry about.
Whether it was Concubine Hui who was good to her, or Rong Xiuyuan.
They have already gained benefits, and Shen Chuliu has gained companionship, so they owe each other nothing in this life.
Then there is Pei Jun, for whom she left something.
Apart from this, whether it is the Shen family or the Pei family, it doesn’t matter.
Shen Chuliu didn't even give Qi Yan a word.
He has his own judgment on what is right and what is wrong.
The days in the palace seemed to pass by just like that.
During the period of mourning for the Empress Dowager, the Emperor naturally seldom entered the harem, and would only occasionally sit with the Empress.
After she finished her mourning period, the empress mentioned bringing in someone to the harem, and the emperor agreed, but only because he wanted to choose someone for the crown prince and others.
There was no one left in the harem.
In the sixth year after Shen Chuliu's death, four new people entered the harem.
Among them was Baolin, whose surname was Zhou, who was first met by the emperor in the imperial garden.
Qi Yixiu stood there at that time.
That person, those eyes, are so similar to the one in my memory, and they are dressed similarly.
Qi Yixiu stood there for a long time and didn't hear Zhou's greeting at all.
After a while, he fainted.
Zhou was sent out of the palace overnight, and Lin Chongrong, who had worked hard to bring Zhou in, was demoted to Baolin.
As a result, the Lin family was driven out of the imperial city and sent to serve as minor officials in the local area.
As a result, the emperor's health became worse year by year.
Most people didn’t know why the emperor suddenly fell ill and just thought he was sick.
But in Fengzao Palace, the Queen vaguely understood everything.
She looked at the blood-red sunset outside and chuckled, "I used to say that if you enter this palace, you will become the queen mother. How can there be a winner?"
But now it seems that even the emperor is a loser.
If an emperor loses his heart, he will also be in great pain.
This palace is like a cage, who can really escape?
In the end, Imperial Concubine Jing was smart. She died in such a grand manner that how could anyone forget her...
