Life simulator, start with a maid

Chapter 428
The whole body of the girl in her arms was covered with blood. She insisted until now that her consciousness finally sank into drowsiness, but her body was still warm, rising and falling slowly with her breathing...

Qiu Bai pinched her wrist for the first time to feel her pulse, and after confirming again and again that she was just exhausted and did not suffer any fatal injuries, she was slightly relieved.

But before he could retract his hand, a white light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

The expressions of the other people present did not change.

So only he could clearly see the long, transparent cloud that emerged from her body, hidden in the rain and mist, spinning and going straight to the sky.

The morning sun is dipped in brilliant gold, ushering in the entire dawn.

Before the radiant gold of happiness faded away together with the wind and rain, an old and deep voice came from afar.

"Luthern master, stay safe..."

Qiu Bai was taken aback for a moment, and his heart tightened suddenly.He subconsciously looked up at the sky, but there was only the cloud that had completely dissipated...

*
In early autumn, Daqi had another state capital.

Lin Lang also had a more intuitive appreciation of the skills of the eldest princess.

Some people seem to be born to interpret a certain word, and Murong Lingyao is a genius in the art of war.

In the past, he led the army for many years and was experienced.Innate plus acquired, the double-layer buffs are fully stacked.

So it was not some prince who followed the first emperor to fight in all directions, but this powerful princess.Probably because of this, even though she is a girl, she will still be feared just like those princes, and she needs to go to the fief...

At the same time, the imperial city.

There was silence in front of Shoukang Palace, and the concubines and imperial physicians were kneeling on the ground.All of them lowered their heads, with solemn expressions, not even daring to breathe.

Inside, Ji Huirong was lying on a soft couch, and a bean-sized oil lamp was burning on the desk, shaking very faintly.

She was not a quick-witted person all her life, she was cared for by her adoptive parents when she was young, and her biological parents felt indebted.After entering the palace, Concubine Cen took good care of her, and the late Emperor was also very accommodating to her.

But now that life has come to an end, there is a kind of detached peace and kindness, but his eyes are always staring at the door.

"Queen, the emperor will be here soon." After many years of time and change, Shen Lanyi was still sitting in front of her in the end.

"Gui."

The queen mother raised her hand weakly, and Nanny Gui, who was usually steady beside her but was silently wiping her tears at this moment, immediately understood, and immediately walked forward holding a small box covered with brocade.

The box is exquisite and exquisite, with a golden chiseled phoenix flying on it, singing towards the sun.Just looking at it like this is already precious and majestic, one can imagine how rare the box is.

When Aunt Gui knelt down and presented the things respectfully, Shen Lanyi was slightly taken aback.

"Mother?"

"This was supposed to be yours, but it's really late now..." Ji Huirong handed the phoenix seal to her hand, his fingertips trembling weakly.

"Good boy, the Ai family knows that Shen'er is sorry for you, but Shen'er... Shen'er is the emperor. From the outside, it seems that what the emperor says is nothing, but the emperor can't think about it..."

When Ji Huirong said this, his eyes couldn't help being a little confused.

This was what the late emperor had told her about. The late emperor had a very good capacity for alcohol and rarely got drunk.But on the day General He died in battle, he was so drunk that he cried, and the cat slept on the table in her palace all night...

"The Ai family knows that no matter how much you say, it hurts if it hurts. So the Ai family doesn't dare to ask you to forgive Shen'er, but I hope you can accept this phoenix seal... It doesn't matter if you owe it or make up for it. For Chen'er, Lan Yi will continue to move forward."

Shen Lanyi didn't say much, just took the offer with both hands, and solemnly kowtowed to the Empress Dowager, which was the first time she met Ji Huirong after she entered the Prince's Mansion.

……

When Murong Linshen came, he paused outside the palace as if escaping, as if he didn't have to face anything unless he opened the door.

But he still walked in. When he entered, Shen Lanyi was exiting with the phoenix seal. He only bowed his knees and saluted halfway, and the two continued to pass each other in a hurry.

Ji Huirong watched silently, and only sighed softly.

"Even the queen mother...is she going to leave her son now?"

The emperor's expression still didn't fluctuate much or lose his composure. It seemed that the mask that had been glued to his face for many years had melted into his flesh and blood.

It's just that there was an imperceptible tremor in the words, and it was rare to show a weak state.

"Shen'er..."

Ji Huirong reached out and patted the hand he was holding tightly, with soft eyes, "Do you still remember what your father said?"

"A king is doomed to be lonely."

Murong Lin answered the words deeply, his tone tinged with sarcasm but extremely firm, "Only one person can sit on the dragon chair, so the way of the emperor is destined to be walked to the end by the son-in-law alone, with no one to accompany him."

When he chose to take over Daqi, his father repeatedly warned and asked if he really thought about it and walked with the country and people on his back.

"It's a common saying that people have a certain lifespan. But the queen mother is most worried about you... Si'er is open-minded, has friends and beautiful eyes, but you are different."

Ji Huirong stared at him, as if discerning the soul that still belonged to his son through the court clothes and crown that symbolized the emperor's status.

"Since you became the crown prince and the emperor, you have become more and more unfamiliar, and less like yourself. Sometimes even the queen mother can't tell... Are you really happy or fake... Shen'er, the emperor His crown is too heavy."

She tried her best to prop up her body, and gently pushed aside the beads on Murong Linshen's face, finally revealing that familiar face clearly.

"The queen mother is afraid that after the queen mother leaves, you will really be left alone. Although your father told you that no one can be trusted completely. But Shen'er, Si'er is your brother...he has a heart Always clean..."

The queen mother is half explaining and half consoling.

"So, the queen mother hopes that if you are unhappy in the future, you don't need to say anything, even if you just ask Si'er for tea..."

"Mother."

Murong Lin lowered his head gently and docilely, so that she could see himself clearly, and said word by word, "I have never doubted the Fourth Emperor."

Even if you can't believe it completely, you definitely don't doubt it.

There is a difference in age between him and Qiubai. After Concubine Cen passed away, when Qiubai was adopted under the empress dowager's knee, he was already a prince, running around in bloodless battles one after another every day.

At that time, although the little boy with a low sense of existence was not familiar with him, he would silently help him to put those rice papers full of black characters, one by one, under the ruler...

In this way, we want to try hard to repay kindness.

"That's fine, that's fine..."

As if to settle an important matter, the Empress Dowager's eyes gradually faded, but she turned her head and glanced outside the palace door, "Si'er...hasn't he come back yet?"

Murong Linshen half-kneeled by the couch, his brows were rarely tired and hurt, and he replied in a low voice, "Si'er, he has already entered the capital, and he will be there soon. Wait a minute, mother, and spend more time with Erchen..."
