Only then did Han Su realize that Mrs. Ji's condition was a little abnormal. She was about to step forward to help him, but found that he was staggering and could not stand still.

He actually collapsed on the ground, with blood spilling from the corners of his mouth.

Han Su took advantage of the situation and felt his pulse, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Senior, you..."

Ji Chengyun smiled and said, "There is no cure for the poison in the wine. I am already old, and I will not live for a few years even if I am alive. This time I came to Beijing to reassure your master. I died in front of the queen's body. From today on, my Ji family’s reputation of loyalty will be fulfilled, and the descendants of Fuze will be a good thing for our Ji family, so let this old bone finally fight for the reputation of the family!”

Having said this, Ji Chengyun laughed a few times, then turned around and said:

"Girl, please go and ask the prince of the prison country to let everyone in the Dugu family see that I died here. Then, send my bones back to the Han family. Xueer will take care of the funeral and tell him that I died here." He died, and the Ji family will live on forever!"

When he said this, Mr. Ji no longer had the energy to speak.

These days, Han Su has seen too many lives and deaths.

She was greatly shocked by Mr. Ji's choice, but she didn't know what to say.

These days, she feels powerless again.

After her master's death, she truly realized that even the most powerful people would have their day.

Han Sheng's death made her realize that grudges in life can be resolved.

As for Ji Chengyun's death, it taught her one thing: there are many things more precious than life in this world.

Dugu Xu, the prince of the prison state, was deeply saddened when he learned of Ji Chengyun's death.

He was ordered to be buried lavishly, and he was posthumously named King of Qingzhou.

His son inherited the title of Marquis of Huaishui.

Ji Lingxue came to the palace to take her father home. She knew that she could not stop her father. Even if she no longer wanted to accept such an ending, there was nothing she could do.

……

Several battles had been fought on the grasslands in the north, but they were just small fights.

The real remnants of the Northern Barbarians were not found, but many other tribes were picked up.

In the marching tent, King Qin Duguxu and King Xuan Duguli were wandering outside the tent, looking worried.

In a battle yesterday, the emperor personally mounted his horse and led his troops into the enemy's formation.

This is considered rare among emperors of all dynasties.

Only their father has such a bloody nature.

It's a pity that heroes grow old and are no longer as brave as they were in their youth.

Even if the personal guards around you fight desperately to protect you, accidents will inevitably happen.

The emperor was hit by an arrow and fell off his horse, causing an old wound.

It would take more than a month to send an urgent message from Kyoto to the grassland.

Today, a messenger from Kyoto arrived, asking to see His Majesty.

But I heard that His Majesty was injured and unconscious, and could only wait outside the military tent.

King Qin and King Xuan waited anxiously for the doctor to come out.

"Medical Officer Sun, how is your Majesty?"

The medical officer looked sad and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty's arrow injury is not serious, but when he fell from the horse, the bone position shifted. Although the bone has been set, it caused the old injury. In addition, it is winter today and it is bitterly cold outside the Great Wall. His Majesty’s body is still fit to return to Beijing to recuperate.”

King Xuan's face turned ugly, "After all this trouble, we didn't even see the Northern Barbarians' Mao. How could the old man be willing to retreat?"

King Qin snorted coldly, "Whether or not we retreat is another question, but the old man must go back first. By the way, did the messenger from Kyoto say anything? He actually used the communication channel of the Ministry of War?"

"I don't know. It's said to be a letter written by the boss himself, and it can only be read when father and we are present at the same time."

King Qin frowned and said, "Huh! The prince is so majestic. Can't I take a look first?" As he said that, King Qin grabbed the messenger outside the military tent.

"You know who I am, right? His Majesty the Emperor is injured and needs to recuperate. You can read the letter here in front of me. I want to see what the prince has to say."

At this time, the King of Qin thought it was the prince who sent another letter urging him to withdraw his troops.

In his heart, his eldest brother cried about poverty all day long, yelling that the treasury had no money, so he would not fight if he could.

The King of Qin built up his prestige on horseback, and being able to fight was a good opportunity for him to build up his reputation.

Naturally, he wanted to follow the old man on the expedition and make an immortal contribution.

The messenger thought for a long time and said:
"Your Highnesses, His Highness the Crown Prince has personally warned that this is a huge matter, and both Your Majesty and you must know about it, but right now..."

This messenger was also a man. Seeing that His Majesty was in poor health, he did not dare to send the Prince's letter directly to the Emperor.

He thought about ventilating the two princes in advance, but King Qin was so impulsive that he immediately did not dare to say anything.

Or was it King Xuan who knew the world and asked insinuatingly:
"Did something big happen in the capital? Please reveal something to me first."

"It concerns the queen, so your two highnesses must be prepared."

As soon as this conversation came out, King Xuan's expression changed immediately, and King Qin also reacted.

"What the hell did you say? What happened to my grandma?"

"The Queen... passed away."

This was like a bolt from the blue, falling on the two of them.

No matter how arrogant and arrogant King Qin was on weekdays, he seemed to have lost his soul at this time, but he reacted immediately.

One kick will knock the messenger to the ground.

"How dare you curse my mother-in-law and seek death! Someone, drag me out and chop her up!"

King Xuan reached out and grabbed King Qin's armor, his whole hand was trembling.

"Second brother, don't make any noise. Does he dare to make a joke about killing an entire family?"

Dugu Li's voice was trembling.

At this time, the personal guards hurriedly walked out of the military tent.

"Your Highnesses, Your Majesty invites you."

The two of them had not yet recovered from the news they had just heard, but they had to gather their emotions and walk into the big tent.

In the big tent, the emperor lay weakly on the couch.

Although he looked sickly, the sharpness in his eyes was still there.

"Second brother, what are you arguing about outside?"

"No...nothing. An idiot did something wrong."

"I heard you mention your grandma just now. I wonder how she is doing these days. Didn't the Dalingtai tribe seize a batch of gems a few days ago? Send someone to send them back to her quickly."

King Qin endured the pain in his heart and choked up:

"Old man, it's not like you don't know that grandma never likes these vulgar things."

"Yes, she has never liked these things. It has become a habit over the years. Every time she comes out and sees good things, she wants to give them to her to see if she will like them. During those years when she was in the Bu Lao Pavilion, I gave them to her. She will accept all the things she gives me, but I know that she doesn't really like it. She just wants to change it into money and spend it all on the Bu Lao Pavilion, so I will follow her. If she doesn't ask me for money, I won't give it to her. ? Hahaha... It’s interesting when I think about it. She took the gifts I gave her and sold them for money. Didn’t I find someone to buy them with money? This girl..."

As he spoke, his voice became softer and softer, and gradually seemed weak.

Then he sighed: "This time she won't be in charge of Bu Lao Pavilion anymore. I think she will pick out a few things she likes and keep them."

The two of them listened to their father ramble on about the past with their mother-in-law, and could no longer hold back. The two older men burst into tears at this time.
