For dinner, Princess Ninth took the rare opportunity to order a table of dishes and ate a bowl of rice with a good appetite.
After washing, she personally lit the incense given to her by Shen Xingwan.
"Princess, let me wait for you to change your clothes." The palace maid said.
The Ninth Princess took off her wedding dress and put on her pajamas, "Just hang the wedding dress aside. I'll collect it tomorrow."
The palace maid hung up her clothes, and the ninth princess said softly, "Go out, there is no need to keep vigil."
The Ninth Princess has recently developed a new problem. She cannot sleep as long as there are people in the room, so she insists that she does not want palace guards to keep her awake.
She slept alone for several days without incident, and everyone was used to her new habit.
She is afraid of the dark, so she always leaves a light in the room.
She lay flat on the bed, and many memories passed through her mind. Her eyes were red and she was immersed in the memories.
In the dead of night, she put the written letters into three boxes with bare feet, then took off the wedding dress hanging aside and put it on.
She found a dagger from her small box, which was a birthday gift given to her by Qi Han.
She made a severe cut on her right wrist and went back to bed to lie down. Except for the pain at first, she quickly fell into a coma under the hypnosis of incense.
Before she completely lost consciousness, she saw her mother-in-law coming to pick her up. A smile appeared on Princess Ninth's lips, "Mother-in-law, I miss you so much..."
The next day, the palace maid smelled the smell of blood as soon as she opened the door, and rushed towards her in panic, "Ninth Princess, wake up..."
The old princess was quickly alerted and came with a large group of people. She saw the ninth princess wearing a wedding dress and lying on the bed covered with blood.
Wen Niang, the nanny of the Ninth Princess, knelt down to the old princess with swollen eyes and said, "The Ninth Princess left three letters that I want to send. I hope you will fulfill them."
When things have come to this point, the old princess will naturally not be embarrassed, "I will send a fast horse to deliver the letter."
Wen Niang said with firm eyes, "I want to see the third princess. The ninth princess died here like this. I want to apologize..."
The identity of the Ninth Princess is embarrassing, and now she is at war. It is impossible for the palace to hold a grand funeral for her, and she never belonged to Northern Xinjiang.
After a simple seven-day interment, her coffin was temporarily stored in the royal family temple.
If the King of Northern Xinjiang wins one day, the third princess will take her back to the imperial city. If he loses, maybe she will stay here forever.
The once beloved daughter of heaven, the most favored ninth princess in Xiling, passed away desolately, lonely and silently.
It is her luck and misfortune to be born into the royal family!
————————————————
When Wen Niang arrived with the letter and relics, the two armies had already fought several times.
With people from the Luo family escorting her, she saw the third princess without any obstruction.
The moment the third princess saw her, her eyes turned red with emotion, "Why are you here if you don't stay with Jiu'er properly?"
Wen Niang knelt down to her with a puff, "It's my fault that I didn't guard the Ninth Princess every step of the way."
"What happened to Jiu'er?" the third princess asked with a trembling voice.
"Ninth Princess is gone..." Wen Niang took out the Ninth Princess's letter and relics.
The third princess bit her lip and read the letter left to her by the ninth princess. She wrote a lot. At the end, she wrote:
"I'm really tired. I hope that Third Sister will indulge me for the last time and allow me to take a step first. The rest of the suffering in the future will have to be taken away by Third Sister."
"sorry…"
The third princess shed tears. From now on, she will no longer have any relatives around her, and she will move forward alone.
There were three hundred thousand taels of silver notes in the box, and the Ninth Princess left all the money to her.
"Qi Han, it is impossible to relieve the hatred in my heart without killing you. Only your blood can comfort my royal family's forgetfulness!"
Wen Niang suddenly said, "The Ninth Princess has something to leave to the Regent, and I want to see him in person."
The third princess said without hesitation, "Okay."
This is an outcome he caused by his own hands. He should know it. How dare he step on Jiu'er's blood with peace of mind and walk up!
Wen Niang rested for a night, and the next day the third princess took her directly to the front of the battle, shouting hoarsely to the army on the opposite side, "Let Qi Han come out, I have something to say to him!"
She was both a royal princess and the princess of Northern Xinjiang, and her status was extraordinary. When she shouted such words, people from Qi Han's side did not dare to look down upon her, and immediately sent someone to notify Qi Han.
Qi Han soon appeared in front of the army, "I wonder what the third princess has to say."
The third princess said bitterly, "Someone wants to see you!"
Wen Niang walked out from behind, holding a small box in her hand, and moved forward step by step.
The archers on Qi Han's side immediately aimed at him. Qi Han's eyes trembled but he said loudly, "Stop it, let her come over..."
Wen Niang has been with the Ninth Princess since she was a child. Of course Qi Han is very familiar with her. Now that she appears here, he already has a bad premonition.
During the confrontation between the two armies, Wen Niang walked over step by step, stood in front of Qi Han's horse and looked up at him with a strange smile, "Did you think about the ending when you personally sent the Ninth Princess to Northern Xinjiang? Now I am here to tell you the ending.
Already."
Qi Han's body swayed, suppressing his inner uneasiness, and ordered, "Take her back."
Wen Niang was taken back to the place where Qi Han lived. She waited from dawn to dusk before Qi Han summoned her.
She came to Qi Han's study with the box in hand and gave him the box in her hand, "I guess this is what the Ninth Princess returned to you."
Qi Han looked at the box with a heavy gaze for a long time before opening it with trembling hands, as if there was a scourge inside.
Inside lies a piece of bloody purple jade, which Qi Han gave to the Ninth Princess before she got married. It is also a jade pendant inherited from the Qi family.
Qi Han picked up the jade pendant and asked, "Whose blood is on this?"
"Of course it belongs to the Ninth Princess. She was wearing a red wedding dress and the bed was covered in blood when she left." Wen Niang asked maliciously, "Are you satisfied with this ending?"
Qi Han took half a step back as if frightened. The jade pendant in his hand fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces.
"You lied, how could she be dead, how could she be dead..."
Wen Niang looked at her calmly, "Didn't you already know the ending the day you decided to send her away?"
Qi Han pinched his palms tightly, "Why should she die? No matter if I win or her third sister wins, she can still be the most arrogant and domineering ninth princess..."
A cold smile appeared on Wen Niang's face, "Because, the Ninth Princess will feel pain when she has a heart. She is not as cold-blooded and ruthless as you..."
Qi Han covered his chest and was speechless, with an uncomfortable expression on his face.
After a while he asked, "Does she have anything to say to me?"
Wen Niang said indifferently, "No, she didn't leave you a word."
Wen Niang looked at him for a long time. He turned around and left without even a tear in his eyes.
Qi Han stood alone in the study for a long time. When the first ray of sunlight shone through the window, he bent down and picked up the broken jade pendant.
The broken jade pendant cannot be put back together no matter how hard it is, as if his Jiu'er will never come back again.
