Eunuch Xia stretched out his hand to pull her up and said helplessly: "Stop crying, I'll go find your Majesty right now."
A big living person died suddenly. It was related to human life, not to mention that this person's life was His Majesty's favorite person. This is by no means a trivial matter. Your Majesty will know sooner or later, and it cannot be concealed. Instead of waiting until His Majesty finds out and gets angry, he will
Anyone who conceals the truth will be severely punished. It is better to tell Your Majesty the truth as soon as possible. Even if it will cause the Queen Mother's displeasure, Your Majesty is obviously more important than the Queen Mother's likes and dislikes.
After all, he is His Majesty's servant, not the Queen Mother's. In this palace, all he has to do is be loyal to Your Majesty.
After hearing what Eunuch Xia said, Cabbage stood up straight, wiped away her tears, and said with gratitude: "Thank you! Thank you!"
"Okay, hurry up and wipe your face clean. His Majesty will definitely want to see you later. Don't stain His Majesty's eyes."
Cabbage hurriedly wiped her face with her sleeves and responded with a choked sob: "Yeah! Thank you, father-in-law, for the tip!"
Eunuch Xia asked her to wait here while he went to find the emperor alone.
Xiao Feng, who was listening to the play with the Empress Dowager, noticed that Eunuch Xia went out for a while and then came back. He glanced sideways and gave Eunuch Xia a questioning look.
Xiao Feng knew very well how Eunuch Xia dealt with things. If it was not a big deal, Eunuch Xia would not show such an expression.
Eunuch Xia secretly glanced at the Empress Dowager, walked slowly to the emperor, leaned into his ear, and said softly: "Kae Cai came just now and said that Miss Le was gone."
Gone? What do you mean gone? Xiao Feng's face changed. He felt like he had been hit hard in the chest and couldn't breathe. However, because the Empress Dowager was sitting next to him, it was difficult for him to have an attack on the spot, so he had to hold on to his heart.
Frightened and angry, he confessed to the Empress Dowager: "I have something to deal with. I have to take the first step. Please forgive me."
The Queen Mother glanced at Eunuch Xia behind him and nodded without asking any more questions: "Go ahead and remember to see the Queen tonight."
"Yes," Xiao Feng stood up and left, and Eunuch Xia hurriedly lowered his head to follow.
They came to another vacant room. Xiao Feng waved away all the palace maids and eunuchs, leaving only Eunuch Xia. When the door was closed, Xiao Feng immediately asked in a deep voice: "What is going on? What happened to Xiao Lezi?"
?!"
Seeing that the emperor was so concerned about this matter, Eunuch Xia knew that the matter was going to be a big deal. He knelt down on the ground with a plop, fearfully told the whole story in detail, and finally took out the suicide note and presented it with both hands.
Xiao Feng immediately took the suicide note and quickly scanned the contents with his eyes. His face changed drastically when he was hit, and he froze on the spot and did not recover for a long time.
Eunuch Xia was always paying attention to the changes in the emperor's expression. Seeing him wanting to cry, getting angry, and being at a loss, he couldn't bear it. He persuaded him in a low voice: "People cannot be resurrected after death. Your Majesty expresses your condolences, even for Miss Le.
Please also take care of your dragon body."
Xiao Feng's fingers holding the letter were trembling. He didn't want to believe that this was reality. How could his little fun suddenly disappear!
His voice was a little hoarse: "Call Cabbage over, I want to ask her personally."
Eunuch Xia immediately responded: "Yes, I will call her over right now."
He bowed his head and exited, and soon brought Cabbage over. When he saw the emperor, Cabbage knelt down without saying a word. The tears that she had finally stopped began to fall again. She choked and cried: "Miss Le, let's go."
It's my fault! It's my fault! I didn't take good care of you, please punish me!"
Without this suicide note, Xiao Feng's first reaction was to drag out all the people who were serving Xiao Lezi and kill them. If both of them couldn't take care of them, what's the use of keeping these people!
But he saw the contents of the letter, the last words written by Xiao Lezi himself... This decision was made by me alone, and no one else knows about it. Please don't take it out on others, especially Cabbage. I am very grateful to her over the years.
For taking care of me, if she suffers because of me, I will not rest in peace even in the underworld. Please look at my kindness in serving you all these years, don't blame her.
He was so angry that he couldn't even speak, and his chest hurt terribly, but he didn't want Xiao Lezi to rest in peace underground. This was her last wish, and he had no choice but to fulfill her.
Cabbage once again told the story about finding Xiao Lezi committing suicide by taking poison. She told it more carefully and more sadly than Eunuch Xia. Xiao Feng became more and more uncomfortable when she heard it, and even Eunuch Xia couldn't help but have red eyes.
After Cabbage finished speaking, Xiao Feng remained silent for a long time. In the quiet room, only Cabbage's intermittent sobs could be heard.
After a long time, Xiao Feng finally squeezed out a dry sentence from between his teeth: "Take me to see her."
On the way to Yeting, Xiao Feng kept comforting himself. Maybe they had made a mistake, or maybe this was all a nightmare. It couldn't be true, and his little joy wouldn't die.
Until he saw Xiao Lezi's body with his own eyes and saw her lying motionless on the bed, not breathing at all, the last trace of luck in his heart was completely shattered.
It really seemed like I could hear a "clang" sound exploding in my head, and then I would feel numb for a while, and I couldn't tell whether it was pain or panic, as if something important was missing.
Yes, he took deep breaths several times before trying to hold back his tears.
Eunuch Xia quietly exited with everyone, leaving him and Xiao Lezi alone in the room.
Xiao Feng sat by the bed, carefully touched her cold cheek, and recalled the contents of the suicide note...
Your Highness...please allow me to call you this. Compared with Your Majesty or your name, I prefer to call you Your Highness, because what I like most is the awkward kid living in the East Palace. If you say you are awkward, maybe you still
I won’t admit it, but it doesn’t matter. Anyway, I’m probably the only one who dares to think this way.
Over the years, I have watched you grow slowly from a little boy to a grown man. I am proud of you, and at the same time, I feel lucky to be able to participate in your growth process.
In my eyes, you are better than any man. I was even depressed before. What should I do if I can't find a better man than you to marry me in the future?
Now I don't have to be depressed anymore because I have got you.
I once hated your domineering arrogance and your self-righteousness, but over the years, your care for me has moved me. I can't repay your feelings, and I don't want to deceive you anymore.
I don’t even want to deceive myself anymore.
Being able to meet you and get your affection has already spent all the luck in my life. Unfortunately, I am a coward and dare not face the outcome after my luck is spent.
I always tell myself that I cannot be tempted by you or let myself fall into the gentle trap you have arranged. I must always stay awake and keep telling myself that you and the love you give are both poison and a cage.
I'm sorry that I failed you. I had to leave you first. I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. I just hope that you can forget me.
You have your own country, and your future will be brilliant. I will bless you in another world and wish you peace and happiness.
If people can have a next life, I hope you are not a prince, let alone an emperor. When the time comes, I will definitely chase you and let you be my husband. Then I can love you wholeheartedly, take care of you, and give birth to you.
Raise children and grow old together.
These are all my wishful thinking. I know that most men have their own ambitions. Maybe you will think that I am too petty and will not take the overall situation into consideration, but I am just an ordinary little woman. What I want is never the world.
, I just hope that the person I love can love me equally, wholeheartedly.
I can't live without you, but I can't love you, and I don't want to share you with other women, so I can only choose death to end it all.
I prepared the poison myself and it has nothing to do with the hospital. Death is also my own choice and has nothing to do with anyone else. Please don’t kill again because of me. I hope I can walk away cleanly. Please look at this.
In keeping with our past friendship, my body was sent back to my hometown in Qingzhou, where I was born and where I will rest.
It may be a bit pretentious to say this now, but I still want to tell you.
Your Highness, I declare to you.
Seeing that it was almost dark and the emperor still hadn't come out, Eunuch Xia looked at the closed door and felt anxious in his heart.
Today is the emperor's big day, and the empress is still waiting for him in Chunning Palace. If he misses tonight's wedding night, no one dares to blame him, but as the eunuch chief eunuch, Eunuch Xia will definitely be punished by the empress.
He expressed his anger with the Empress Dowager.
Having offended two big bosses at once, even the cunning Eunuch Xia couldn't help but feel anxious.
He walked back and forth at the door of the room until the Empress Dowager sent someone to urge him. Then he dared to make up his mind, knocked on the door cautiously, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, the time has come, and the Queen is still waiting.
Let’s have a drink with you!”
After saying that, he pressed against the door, wanting to hear what was going on inside.
Unfortunately, the emperor ignored him and the room was quiet without any sound.
The door had been damaged by cabbage and magnolia, and it had not been repaired yet. Eunuch Xia knocked a few more times, and the door opened on its own. He hesitated for a moment, crossed the threshold lightly, stretched his neck and walked into the house.
Zhang Wang said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for the offense. I have come in. You..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Feng walked out of it. His expression was very gloomy, and his already very cold temperament was now exuding an intimidating and strong aura, which made people breathless.
Eunuch Xia almost had a heart attack after just one glance. He quickly looked away, wishing he could bury his head in his stomach.
The emperor stood in front of him and didn't speak for a long time, but he could clearly feel that the temperature around him was more than ten degrees colder than before. He was so cold that he had goosebumps. If he hadn't lived in the palace for decades,
He has seen a lot of storms in his life, and I am afraid that he would have been so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
Time suddenly became very slow, and even breathing became very light.
I don't know how much time passed, but just when Eunuch Xia thought he would remain silent like this forever, the emperor suddenly spoke: "Let's go."
These two simple words made Eunuch Xia breathe a sigh of relief. When the emperor walked out, he dared to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. He almost scared him to death just now. He really felt like he had walked away from the gate of hell.
