Chapter 845 The Emperor Passes Away
Seeing her like this, Lu Chaochao couldn't help but smile.
She likes this child very much.
She hung the thumb-sized bead around Cancan's neck, and it looked like the Milky Way shining under the moonlight.
It was such a small thing, but Cancan couldn’t take her eyes off it.
"Cancan likes it so much, this is Cancan's second favorite gift!!" Cancan couldn't help but hold the beads and look at them, then carefully hid them against her heart, not wanting to take them out.
"Oh? What's your first favorite?"
"Of course, my favorite is the jade pendant my aunt gave me."
"My aunt is the best, the most wonderful, the most perfect aunt in the world. She is the best aunt in the world. The gifts she gives are naturally the best. Cancan usually doesn't want to bring them out."
"Now, Cancan has two favorite gifts." Cancan's eyes curved with joy.
Hearing the funeral bell ringing in the palace, the little girl's face fell slightly: "Thank you, sister. Cancan will come and play with sister another day." After saying that, she didn't dare to stay any longer and hurriedly ran away holding Baibai's hand.
After she left, Lu Chaochao sighed quietly, "What a lovable and interesting child."
"Well, she is very lucky." This was the first time she saw a child with such a strong fortune.
I think the family she was born into must be extremely precious in this world.
She also had a lovable aura.
Ci Mu couldn't help but frown. They were connected by blood, so it was natural for him to like her.
Moreover, when Lu Cancan was one year old, Chao Chao gave her a jade pendant. It is more than just a jade pendant, it is the Creator's preference.
She will have a smooth life, turn misfortune into good fortune, and turn adversity into luck. Good times will come, and good fortune will come after bad times. All the misfortunes in this world will bypass her.
Good luck will always be with her.
At this moment, Xiao Cancan lowered his head and ran home with Baibai.
Seeing the carriage at the gate, Cancan's face fell: "It's over, it's over, it must be my family coming to pick me up." She scratched her head anxiously, grabbed Baibai and crawled into the dog hole.
I heard that this dog hole has existed for more than ten years, but no one in the family has ever asked to seal it up.
The mother just asked someone to keep a good watch on her.
Now, it is convenient for her.
"Stinky Baibai, you really need to lose weight. If you get any fatter, you won't be able to get out of this dog hole, and I won't take you out anymore." After taking a lot of effort to stuff Baibai in, Cancan ran as fast as he could.
Seeing the maid guarding the gate, Cancan immediately shrank her neck in fear.
"Aunt Dengzhi..." the little girl called out weakly.
Dengzhi turned the Lu family's house upside down but couldn't find her. He was getting anxious and angry when he saw her standing at the gate with straw on her head. He was furious.
But seeing her pitiful appearance, he couldn't bear to scold her.
Six years have passed, and Dengzhi's brow has more wrinkles. He is also more tolerant when seeing the younger people in the mansion.
"Cancan, you sneaked out of the mansion again. If the second lady knew, she would definitely punish you." The Lu family entered the palace early to guard, and only Cancan and Shanshan were left in the mansion.
If Wen was here, she would definitely be punished.
Cancan said in a flattering manner: "Aunt Dengzhi, please keep it a secret. I beg you, Aunt Dengzhi, I will be obedient in the future..."
Even her dog looked fawning.
A little less aloof than usual.
“Forget it, go change your clothes quickly. The old lady is still waiting in the palace. Don’t run around anymore. The world is not peaceful now…” Dengzhi ordered people to change Cancan into clothes that had been prepared long ago, and he just washed and combed his hair casually before putting her into the carriage.
When she was carried into the carriage, I saw a round bead faintly visible on her neck. Dengzhi asked, "What is this?"
Cancan's eyes lit up slightly, with a hint of pride between her brows: "It's the stars!"
"Cancan met a super beautiful sister, who gave her a star." Cancan was beaming with joy, holding the beads in her hand with a faint glow.
Dengzhi was helpless, as the children treated even a stone as a treasure. She glanced at it casually and then tucked it back into her collar.
"Did something happen to the Emperor?" Little Cancan asked while lying on the carriage.
Dengzhi hesitated for a moment, but he would know after entering the palace anyway, so he did not hide it: "Yes."
In the past six years, I have finally had some peace and stability. If Your Majesty passes away, I'm afraid people will panic again.
Your Majesty ascended the throne late, and Northern Zhao was in a turbulent period when you took over. Thanks to our painstaking efforts and hard work over the years, Beizhao has become the leader among the four countries.
Later, he faced the realm of the gods, and the burden on him reached its limit.
If it weren’t for the longevity talisman that Lu Chaochao left behind, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to survive these six years.
There was another person in the corner of the carriage. Cancan restrained his expression and called out softly, "Uncle."
Rong Xiangshan sat in the corner with a pot of tea at hand and a cold look on his face.
For some reason, she was very afraid of her uncle.
She often heard her parents gossiping and heard that her uncle was a very evil person and only her aunt could control him. But since his aunt left, he seemed like a different person, becoming taciturn and no longer causing trouble.
But the more this happened, the more Cancan was afraid of him.
I always felt that my uncle was standing in the dark, surrounded by terrifying things behind him. It can lead to killing and go to the opposite of light at any time.
So Cancan didn't dare to get close.
Shanshan nodded casually, and when she saw the little girl huddled together and didn't dare to get close, she couldn't help but snort.
Sure enough, the little guy stiffened and became even more nervous.
The two of them were silent all the way until they reached the palace gate, where Cancan was carried off the carriage. She followed Aunt Dengzhi obediently and entered the palace with her.
She was wearing a light-colored long skirt, which made her face look a little white.
The palace was filled with solemnity, everyone lowered their heads, and a heavy atmosphere could be vaguely felt. All the civil and military officials were kneeling outside the hall, their faces heavy and their eyes red.
Princess Jingxi was whispering to her youngest son, "Haven't you contacted Yuzhou yet? I'm afraid His Majesty can't hold on any longer."
The boy shook his head slightly.
"Cancan, Shanshan, come into the hall quickly." Xu Shiyun led the child inside.
The emperor has many children, and many princes and princesses are kneeling in the hall at this moment.
The older prince is already married, with his children standing beside him.
She was lying on the bed, calling "Grandpa Huang" in a low voice.
Shanshan and Cancan are members of the Lu family, but Lu Chaochao has a close relationship with the emperor. The emperor feels that he owes the Lu family, so he naturally treats her family well.
The Lu family stood among the royal heirs without any sense of incongruity.
Emperor Xuanping was lying on the dragon bed, his eyes were bright, and he was breathing out more than breathing in.
Xie Chengxi was kneeling beside the bed, holding the imperial edict in his hands.
The emperor took advantage of the last Qingming moment to decide on the crown prince.
He searched the crowd with his eyes and whispered softly: "Chao Chao ah...Chao Chao..."
Xu Shiyun felt a pain in her heart and lowered her head suddenly.
"Let Cancan and Shanshan see His Majesty off." They are Chaochao's closest relatives and the people who are most like Chaochao.
The emperor was skinny and held Cancan's hand tightly: "Father is sorry for you, the three realms are sorry for you. You have suffered a lot, child..."
Emperor Xuanping had countless children, but he only loved Chao Chao.
