Jingmen Fengyue

Chapter 1146
Xie Fanghua heard him mention her father and turned around slowly.

"We all fell in love with Cui's daughters together. One is Qinghe Cui and the other is Boling Cui. They are also in love, but my fate is not as good as his. I failed to marry the woman I like, so I can only marry her." Seeing her marrying someone else, that person is still my elder brother." The emperor said again, "And he has fulfilled his wish and married the woman he likes. How can I be willing?"

When Xie Fanghua heard this, his face turned cold, and he said, "So, you set up a trap and killed my parents?"

The emperor nodded, then shook his head again, "Everyone in Southern Qin Dynasty, even everyone in the world, thought that I killed Xie Ying and his wife. I originally wanted to get rid of the Xie family. After so many years, I didn't explain it."

Xie Fanghua raised her eyebrows.

The emperor said, "Back then, I wanted to get rid of the Xie family, so I ordered Xie Ying to quell the rebellion, but when the situation was out of control, I still couldn't bear it, and ordered someone to pass a secret letter to him, telling him to evacuate and return to the capital quickly. But he said that once he left, the South Qin Dynasty would be in danger, and he vowed not to return. In the end, he died."

Xie Fanghua listened, his eyes were full of mist, but his voice was cold, "How can I believe that what you said is true?"

"You also said that when a person is about to die, his words are good." The emperor said, "Why should I lie to you?" After saying that, he knocked on the bed board and pointed under the bed board. A letter from your father."

Hearing this, Xie Fanghua immediately walked two steps quickly, came to the bed, opened the secret compartment according to the emperor's instructions, and a yellowed letter fell out of it.She glanced at it and opened the letterhead, the handwriting inside was clear at a glance.

The words were curt and the handwriting was scribbled, apparently hastily written.

But it was indeed her father's handwriting. In the study of Zhongyonghou Mansion, she always copied her parents' handwriting when she was a child.

Tears immediately wet the eyes.

"I didn't lie to you, did I..." the emperor said, coughing again.

Xie Fanghua pursed her lips and folded the letter paper, "This letter is my father's last handwritten letter..."

"Give it to you." The emperor took the words.

Xie Fanghua carefully put the letter into his arms, looked at the emperor, "Father died for Southern Qin, and at the end of his life, I would like to ask you to let Xie go. But you didn't let go of Xie."

"Without this handwritten letter and his death for Nanqin, do you think you and your brother could have grown up safely?" The emperor looked at him, "A few years ago, when you and your brother were young, Xie's eldest room was open and secret. Fighting against the Zhongyonghou Mansion, the old Marquis is too tired to deal with it. If I had simply decided to take this opportunity to attack, the Xie family would have ceased to exist. It will also be read on your father's death and his letter. I will wait again After a few years, it can be regarded as worthy of Brother Xie Ying."

Xie Fanghua stopped talking.

"Forget it, I'm going to die, what's the point of saying this? In my life, I have indeed failed. Brothers are ruthless, husband and wife are ruthless, father and son..." The emperor closed his eyes, "In the heart of the prince, I am no more important than you."

Xie Fanghua turned around and walked out.

The emperor opened his eyes, saw her leave, and did not stop her.

Xie Fanghua walked out the door of the inner hall, and saw Qin Yu who was waiting at the door with an edict in his hand, as well as Prince Ying and Princess Ying who had been invited by Wu Quan himself.

The three of them stood quietly outside the hall. The door inside the hall was not closed. They didn't know when they came and waited here, and they didn't know how much they had heard just now.

Xie Fanghua glanced at the three of them, and bowed to Prince Ying and Princess Ying, "My lord, my concubine!"

The Prince of England nodded.

Princess Ying opened her mouth, and after a while, she finally made a sound, "Hua girl, you..."

"I'm fine, take care too." Xie Fanghua finished speaking, turned her head, and said to Qin Yu, "Place me in this palace."

Qin Yu nodded, waved to attract a person, and ordered, "Take Miss Fanghua to my bedroom to settle down. Everything is good and you can't wait too long."

"Yes." The man quickly lowered his head and said respectfully, "Miss Fanghua, please come with the servant."

Xie Fanghua nodded, the man led the way, and she slowly stepped up to keep up with him.

Shi Hua and Shi Mo followed her from left to right.

Princess Ying took a step forward, trying to stop her, but Prince Ying reached out and grabbed her, shook his head at her, and she stopped.

Wu Quan quietly withdrew his gaze, opened the curtain, entered the inner hall, and told the other side, "Your Majesty, the prince, prince, and concubine have all returned and are waiting outside."

"Let them in." The emperor waved his hand weakly.

Wu Quan came out and invited the three of them in.

Qin Yu, Prince Ying, and Princess Ying entered the inner hall.

The emperor fixed his eyes on Princess Ying, his eyes drifted away, as if he was looking at her, but also seemed to be looking at something through her.

Princess Ying stopped in her tracks and looked at the emperor from a distance. Seeing his appearance, she suddenly recalled that year, and felt sad that she hadn't felt in so many years.

The Prince of England seemed to understand what it was like, so he didn't make a sound.

Qin Yu didn't make a sound either.

After a while, the emperor's eyes gradually cleared up, he looked away, and said to Prince Ying, "Brother Wang, you are luckier than me, more blessed than me, and better destined than me."

Prince Ying nodded, "Your brother is right."

"In my whole life, as an emperor, I only envied others. I envied Xie Ying for the first half of my life, and I envied you for the rest of my life." The emperor said again, "Now that I have lived to the end, I am finally relieved."

"Your brother, don't be discouraged, you will recover from your illness." Prince Ying said hastily with red eyes.

The emperor shook his head, "Brother Wang is kind and good-natured. For so many years, even though you knew that I had been thinking of Zijing, you never said a word to me. You have dedicated yourself to the Southern Qin Dynasty and to being a good emperor for me. It can be said that you have dedicated yourself. This is also the biggest reason why for so many years, even if I have been thinking about dealing with Xie family day and night, except for Xie family, I have never thought of killing the Prince Ying's mansion. It is not only because my beloved woman lives in the Prince Ying's mansion."

The Prince of England opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"With you here, even if Nanqin is suffering internally and externally, even if I go, I will rest assured under the Nine Springs." The emperor said again, "I will entrust the crown prince and Nanqin to you."

"Emperor Brother!" Prince Ying finally couldn't hold back his tears.

"The prince grew up under your watch. Although he and the boy Zheng didn't fight each other, there was no ambiguity about major matters." The emperor sighed after finishing his sentence, "Is there no news from the boy Zheng yet?"

The Prince of England shook his head, "No."

"I have always indulged him, but I really like him. There are many people in the royal family who are carved out of the same mold, but there are very few masters who are arrogant and frivolous to the extreme." The emperor said again, "It seems that you can't see it." It's his last time, when he comes back, let him burn two pieces of paper and put a stick of incense in front of my grave, it's not in vain that I have pampered him for so many years."

Prince Ying nodded with tears in his eyes, "He remembers the kindness of the emperor's uncle to him in his heart, and it's not that he really doesn't know what's going on. I will definitely... tell him."

The emperor nodded and looked at Qin Yu.

"Father!" Qin Yu knelt down in front of the bed again, and handed him the imperial edict, "My son has brought it."

The emperor looked at the unopened imperial edict and asked him, "Have you read it unopened?"

Qin Yu shook his head.

The emperor looked at him, "If I really agreed to your request and abolished your crown prince, wouldn't I give you the land of Southern Qin?"

Qin Yu lowered his head, "I have no regrets."

"What a shameless one." The emperor sighed, "Open the imperial edict."

Qin Yu responded and slowly opened the edict.

In the eyes, it is the emperor's posthumous photo, with the crown prince succeeding to the throne, and Prince Ying as the assistant king.

"Father..." Qin Yu looked at the emperor holding the imperial edict.

The emperor nodded and said to Wu Quan, "I heard voices outside, are they all here? Let them all come in."

"Yes." Wu Quan hurried to go.

As expected, outside the hall were the ministers of the left and right, the Marquis of Yongkang, the supervisory censor, the academician of the Hanlin University, etc., as well as the empress, Concubine Lin, the eighth prince, and several little princes and princesses who got the news, all came and waited outside the hall. .

After Wu Quan went out, he led everyone into the bedroom.

Immediately, a crowd of people stood in the spacious imperial bedroom.

The emperor swept the crowd around and waved to the queen, "Queen, come here."

"Your Majesty!" The queen's eyes were red and swollen, and she seemed to be suppressing her emotions, and walked to the emperor's side.

The emperor stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand, "I've been sorry for you for so many years."

"Your majesty..." The empress finally couldn't hold back and began to cry. After all, she really liked the emperor. Even though the emperor didn't see her a few days ago, she felt resentful, but she couldn't suppress it when she was parting from life and death.She didn't sleep all night, waiting for someone to invite her, saying that the emperor called her, but she still came.

"You are a good woman, but you have suffered for many years after marrying me and living in this palace. In the future, when I am gone, you don't have to worry about it anymore, just sit down and be the queen mother." The emperor patted her hand.

The queen cried even more sadly.

The emperor wanted to reach out to touch her head as a comfort, but found that he could not lift his arms, so he gave up and looked at the concubine, "Concubine, you have been trapped in this palace all your life. I'm still young, but for this reason, he is allowed to go out and set up a mansion in advance, so you can move out of the palace and live in the Eighth Prince's mansion, so you can live in peace."

The concubine also cried, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"The eighth prince loves to be filial to the concubine, without her there would be no you." The emperor said again.

"My son will obey the emperor's will." Qin Qing couldn't help but burst into tears, knelt on the ground choked with sobs and could not make a sound.

"Left Chancellor, Right Chancellor, Marquis of Yongkang..." the emperor looked at the important ministers in the court, and read them one by one, "I am not a good emperor. After thousands of years, I have done nothing. All my lovers have been scolded for following me, I can't stand you."

"Your Majesty..." Everyone knelt down, everyone was sad.

"After Zhen died, the crown prince succeeded to the throne, and the imperial edict is now in the crown prince's hands. You should help the crown prince and continue the foundation of the Southern Qin Dynasty." The emperor said, his voice suddenly weakened, and his strength was exhausted. The country is handed over to you..."
