Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 221 (71) Eternal Life, Death, Sadness, and Glory (Part [-])
【It is called immortality, but the youngest son of the king dies again;】

[Rong'er asked the sky what his crime was, and why all four sons died together? 】

In March, the early spring has come quietly, but it is a pity that it can't bring a trace of warmth. Rong'er knelt in the Buddhist hall of Baohua Palace, his face was pale, his face was covered with tears, and his body was trembling constantly. Rong'er He clenched his teeth, closed his lips, stared at the Buddha without blinking, and kept asking in his heart: "Buddha, please tell me, what did I do wrong? Why do you treat me like this!"

Xiao Qing, Su Ya and Jing Zhi were beside her, sighing softly, their eyes were red, and they kept wiping away the tears from their eyes.

In the morning, news came from Shoukang Palace that Prince Changsheng, like his elder brother Chengrui, failed to escape this fatal disease and died in the early morning. In three more months, Changsheng would be two years old, but... he But left this world forever.

Rong'er passed out immediately after hearing the news, the emperor didn't come, but he just ordered that nobleman Rong not be allowed to visit the prince, the House of Internal Affairs will handle the prince's funeral and let nobleman Rong mourn.Rong'er woke up, knowing that he would not be able to go to Shoukang Palace, so he came to this Buddhist hall and knelt here for an hour.

"Rong'er!" Jingzhi said worriedly, "Get up, you just gave birth to Yinzhi, and your body is still not fully taken care of, you won't be able to bear kneeling like this all the time."

Rong'er shook his head lightly, still staring at the Buddha statues in the hall. The Buddha Hall of Baohua Hall enshrines Sakyamuni, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Amitabha Buddha. These three Buddha statues all have their eyes slightly closed and their faces are peaceful. Rong'er murmured softly: "Where is Rong'er wrong? Can you tell me? I really don't know. I have never had bad intentions for others, nor have I ever had any desires. Why should I treat my child like this? Or my previous life? I have committed a sin, if that is the case, I should pay it myself, why do I treat my children like this." Rong'er murmured, her emotions gradually lost control, and her voice became louder and louder.

Jingzhi hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Rong'er, "Rong'er, calm down, can you calm down?"

"No!" Rong'er suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, "God is so unfair, why did you treat me like this, it's not fair, it's so unfair." Seeing the Buddha, Rong'er suddenly felt some resentment in his heart, "If The Buddhas cannot bless the good, so what use are they?"

"Rong'er!" Hearing what Rong'er said, Jing Zhi clasped his hands together, looked at the Buddha and bowed his head, saying, "Don't blame the Buddha. Rong'er just lost a child, and his mother's heart is grieving. Please forgive me for offending the Buddha. Don't blame him." After Wang Jingzhi finished speaking, he looked at Rong'er again. Xiaoqing and Su Ya beside him had already supported Rong'er whose legs were weak due to kneeling for a long time.

"Rong'er, don't be like this, calm down, it's not your fault, this is the life of the princes, but don't offend the Buddha!" ​​Rong'er let the tears flow down her cheeks, and the grief in her heart hit her hard, where is the emperor? , why didn't the emperor come to see me?Why didn't the emperor show up?Rong Er asked earnestly in his heart.

In the Qianqing Palace, Xuan Ye sat in front of the table with a dull face. Since last night, Changsheng's illness had started to worsen. He stayed by Changsheng's side and took care of Changsheng with Tuoya. He witnessed it with his own eyes. Seeing the life of the prince leaving him little by little, his heart was broken. When Qingchen Changsheng died in front of him, he felt like he was going to collapse. Although he had experienced the pain of bereavement several times, but He named this child "Longevity" specially, and his only wish was to let him grow up. He himself felt that he could not accept this fact. He is not yet two years old!Xuan Ye didn't even know how he left Shoukang Palace, he hid back in Qianqing Palace, and entrusted Changsheng's funeral to the Internal Affairs Office, he didn't dare to see Rong'er, and he didn't want to see anyone.

"Your Majesty! Do you think you have lunch? What if you hurt yourself if you don't eat?" the consultant asked cautiously.

Xuanye shook his head dully, "Consultant, bring some wine."

"Your Majesty, do you want to drink?" The consultant knows that the Emperor has always disliked drinking, and what he often said is that drinking parties are promiscuous.

Xuan Ye nodded, "I want you to take it." He felt that he was in pain, he couldn't make himself sober, thinking about the prince's early death, and even more thinking about his inability to face Rong'er's grief, so he wanted to choose Escape, even if only for a little while.
