Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 169 Grief
"Take them down to rest." After a while, Emperor Chen's voice came, and the nurses responded, and followed Bai Zhi and Hong Xiu to leave the side hall.

Su Qingning was still asleep, Emperor Chen ordered a few words, left Yuxiu Palace temporarily, and returned to Yanqing Palace.

Lu Xiurong had already left and returned to the Yongchun Palace, knowing that the Empress was by her side, the Emperor Chen nodded.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Zhishu, Emperor Chen asked.

Zhihua and Zhou Chengren were not there, and the two led people separately to interrogate the palace people in charge of the New Year's Eve banquet.

"If you go back to the emperor, the source of the poison is already known, and the rest is still under investigation." Zhishu responded respectfully while bowing to the emperor.

When Imperial Physician Zhong went to Yuxiu Palace before, he told Emperor Chen about the source of the poison, so Emperor Chen knew where the poison was placed.

This time, the incident was aimed at Su Qingning and the children in her womb, and thanks to Mother Chen's careful consideration, Su Qingning escaped by luck, but Jin'er lost her life because of it.

After hearing what Zhishu said, Emperor Chen nodded. Since the matter is still under investigation, it is useless for him to stay in Yanqing Palace.

Leaving Yanqing Palace, Emperor Chen went to Yongchun Palace. Lu Xiurong hugged Jin'er's body and sat on the soft couch in a daze. From time to time, her hand patted Jin'er's body lightly, as if to coax Jin'er to sleep again.

The queen sat on a chair beside her, seeing Lu Xiurong like this, she kept sighing in her heart.

Emperor Chen walked in from outside the hall, and what he saw was this scene, the queen heard the voice, turned her head to look towards the entrance of the hall, saw Emperor Chen, she quickly stood up.

"Excuse me." Seeing that the queen wanted to salute, Emperor Chen waved his hand, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay, how is Su Xiuyi?" She shook her head, since the emperor came, it meant that Su Xiuyi had given birth safely.

"Here, it's the two princes who are sleeping now. I don't feel relieved. I went to Yanqing Palace and came here when I knew that Lu Xiurong was back."

Responding to the queen's inquiry, Emperor Chen looked at Lu Xiurong, "How long have you been back?"

"For a while, she has been like this. I want to persuade you, but I don't know where to start." Although Jin'er is not her own, she has experienced the pain of losing a loved one.

No matter how much others persuade you, it is useless. You still have to figure it out yourself, but how can you figure it out when you think about it?

After hearing what the queen said, Emperor Chen nodded, he walked to the side of the couch, and looked at Lu Xiurong and Jin'er in her arms.

Because she died of poisoning, Jin'er's face and lips were all blue-purple. Seeing Jin'er like this, Emperor Chen felt a twinge of pain in his heart.

In any case, Jin'er is his daughter, and his heirs are rare. Although there are only two daughters, no matter which one he loves, he loves them very much.

Although he didn't visit them often, he always cared about them in his heart. He had planned for the children's future, but he never expected that Jin'er would die so early at such an age.

"Lu Xiurong, I know how sad you are. I am no less sad than you. Don't worry, I will seek justice for you and Jin'er. Jin'er definitely doesn't want to see you like this."

Thinking in his heart for a moment, Emperor Chen opened his mouth and tried to persuade Lu Xiurong. As an emperor, he seldom tried to comfort others. He didn't know if what he said would make Lu Xiurong feel better.

All he knew was that he had written down this account, and that one day in the future, he would settle those accounts one by one.

The emperor's consolation didn't have much effect, Lu Xiurong didn't even look up, she still hugged Jin'er, patted her, and coaxed her to 'sleep'.

Seeing Lu Xiurong like this, Emperor Chen frowned slightly, he knew in his heart that it would not be good for Lu Xiurong if this continued.

After hesitating for a while, Emperor Chen wanted to knock Lu Xiurong unconscious so that she could have a good sleep. Although it was cold today, Jin'er was dead after all, so she couldn't stay by Lu Xiurong's side forever.

"Your Majesty, if this concubine hugs her again, I will hug her for a while longer." As if guessing what the emperor was thinking, Lu Xiurong's voice sounded with a hint of despair.

She knew that her daughter was dead and would never wake up again, but she also knew that if she stopped hugging and seeing more, from now on, she would never be able to see or hug her again.

When Lu Xiurong said so, Emperor Chen agreed, and he stood aside, silently accompanying Lu Xiurong.

The sky is gradually getting brighter. Today is the first day of the new year, the beginning of a new year, but such a beginning is obviously not what the Emperor and the others want.

"Concubine Rong please tidy up for Jin'er." According to the rules of the palace, princes and princesses who died young cannot stop dying, so today, Jin'er will be sent out of the palace to find a place to be buried.

"Okay, you can tell me what you need, and I will prepare it for you." Emperor Chen replied, and now there is only these things he can do.

"I don't need anything, and Jin'er doesn't need anything." Holding Jin'er, Lu Xiurong got up and wanted to leave the main hall. The emperor and queen wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lu Xiurong. She just wanted to be quiet, Stay with your daughter for a while.

Although he was worried, Emperor Chen and the queen agreed, and Lu Xiurong carried Jin'er back to the side hall where she lived.

Everything in the side hall was as usual, just like when they went to the New Year's Eve palace banquet, Lu Xiurong carried Jin'er in his arms and walked around the side hall, talking to Jin'er while walking.

"Jin'er, this dress was made by my concubine herself. You tell my concubine that this is your favorite dress. Today is the first day of the new year. Let's wear this new dress, okay?"

"A few years ago, my concubine mother ordered someone to make these for you. My Jin'er has grown up and loves beauty more and more. Concubine mother will wear these for you in a while."

"This pair of shoes was also made by my concubine herself. It was a bit big at the time, but it should be just right for you to wear now."

Lu Xiurong poured a basin of warm water and wiped Jin'er's body. She put on the clothes she made herself for Jin'er one by one.

Jin'er had been dead for a long time, her body was already stiff, Lu Xiurong moved gently, as if she was afraid of hurting Jin'er.

After the clothes were put on, the hair was combed, and everything was tidied up, Lu Xiurong looked at Jin'er, crying, "My Jin'er is indeed the prettiest."

Until this moment, Lu Xiurong finally couldn't control his emotions, and burst into tears.

The emperor stood outside the side hall, listening to the cries in the hall, tightly pursed his lips, clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his forehead were very obvious, the grief in his heart was no less than that of Lu Xiurong.

After a long time, the crying in the hall gradually stopped. In the hall, Lu Xiurong took out a handkerchief and wiped away her tears. She faced the bronze mirror and straightened her clothes and hair.

She knew in her heart that Jin'er was about to be sent out of the palace for burial today, no matter what, as a mother, she would personally send her off...

　I feel like I'm going to be heated to death... By the way, I gave you a feeling that I'm writing abuse?I can't bear to look at so many comments...
