Jun Huan Rong'er's heart was repressed, and the wise man Shang Rong was sorrowful;

The Palace of Accountability would never be able to quell the pain, and the will of the Emperor was resolute to triumph over the Heavens.

Rong'er fell asleep, feeling the back of his hand was wet. Opening his eyes, he saw Xuan Ye sitting on the edge of the bed with his head lowered.

"Your Majesty …" Rong'er hoarsely called out.

Xuan Ye was startled and hurriedly raised his head to look at Rong'er. "Rong'er, you're awake?"

Rong'er withdrew his hand from Xuan Ye's grasp and lightly dabbed at his cheek. "Your majesty, why are you crying?"

"Rong'er …" Xuan Ye felt an intense pain in his heart. He didn't know how to explain the fact that Rong'er's child had been born and suffered.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Aren't you happy that Rong'er had a child? " Rong'er laughed as he spoke, and suddenly thought: "Is it Brother or Princess? Rong'er wants to see it. "

Xuan Ye once again held Rong'er's hand and bitterly said, "Rong'er, I'm telling you …" You... Don't get excited, listen to me … "The child, he …" Rong'er didn't move, but stared fixedly into Xuan Ye's eyes. Looking at Rong'er, Xuan Ye endured the pain and said, "The child is gone. Because of the difficult birth, he was born without breath."

"Is it Brother or Princess?" Rong'er was shocked. She couldn't believe it, so she asked stubbornly.

Xuan Ye lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It's Brother."

Tears quickly flowed out from Rong'er's eyes. She did not make a sound nor make a sound. She only watched as Xuan Ye's tears silently flowed freely.

Seeing Rong'er like this, Xuan Ye felt a little nervous. "Rong'er, can you just cry?" "Don't do that!"

Rong'er remained silent as she lay there quietly. She wanted to ask whether the heavens had eyes, why had she been so cruel to her from the heart of a harmless person. Cheng Rui, Caixian, and also this child and three princes had died one after the other. Could the gods in the sky tell her?

"Rong'er, I am sorry. You have suffered the loss of your son, but I have ignored you, causing you to feel even more sad. This is all my fault, I was selfish, I was afraid that I would feel sad when I saw Rong'er. I think so every day, but I'm also afraid of meeting you. It's my selfishness. I'm in the wrong. Rong'er, I promise that I will never do it again, okay? " Xuan Ye said anxiously.

"Your majesty, that's not it. How can Rong'er blame your majesty? It's Rong'er's fate that's bad, if you have to blame your destiny, how can Rong'er blame your majesty? Your majesty is the son of heaven, not just Rong'er's husband, how can you be like an ordinary person in this world?" "And the reason why I stayed with Rong'er all day is because Rong'er wasn't so good. It was his carelessness that caused the child to disappear. Rong'er let the emperor down and failed to protect the prince." Rong'er said with tears streaming down his face.

"Rong'er, do you have a grudge against me? I know that even if you don't say it, you still resent me in your heart, but you've never said it. Even if you didn't say it, I knew that Rong'er … "Believe me, my feelings for you have never changed." Xuan Ye worriedly asked Rong'er.

"No, Your Majesty, really no, Rong'er is tired …" "I'm so tired. The sky is about to brighten. The emperor still has an early morning court. I think the emperor should go take a rest. Rong'er is really tired. I really want to have a good rest." Rong'er said softly as he looked out the window.

Xuan Ye also knew that it was almost time for the assembly, but looking at Rong'er now, he couldn't be at ease. He said in a low voice, "I won't be going to the assembly today. There's nothing important.

Rong'er raised her head and looked into Xuan Ye's eyes. She saw the worry in Xuan Ye's eyes and smiled tearfully. "Rong'er is really fine. Your majesty doesn't need to worry. How could the war in the south be okay? Your majesty, go. Rong'er is fine."

Xuan Ye was very worried. He knew that Rong'er was sensible, so he lightly shook his hand and said, "Then I'll come and see you after the assembly. Rong'er, can you be a bit stronger? "I will treat you well twice as much as I can. Rong'er, do you want to take good care of yourself?"

Xuan Ye didn't want to look at Rong'er for too long.

After Shaoqing, Xuan Ye softly sighed and called out, "Men!"

"Your servant is here." Xiaoqing and Qiu E, who were guarding the door, heard her call and hurriedly entered the room to pay their respects to Xuan Ye. Xuan Ye still looked at Rong'er and instructed, "You guys take good care of Noble Lady Rong. Previously, when the porridge we transmitted to you was brought over and fed to her, if anything happens to your master, you guys should use your head to apologize."

The two palace maids hurriedly knelt down to receive the decree. Rong'er saw that Xuan Ye was threatening Little Qing and the others, and sighed softly. "Your majesty, don't worry. Chenqie will be fine."

"Alright, then I'll be leaving first. I'll come see you again after the assembly." Xuan Ye lightly touched Rong'er's pale face, unwilling to part with him. Rong'er looked at Xuan Ye's back, thinking to himself, Your Majesty still cares about me, right? The Emperor's feelings for me haven't changed, right? But when he thought about the dead child, from Cheng Rui to this nameless child, Rong'er's heart ached uncontrollably. He didn't know what to do, she felt like her head was spinning. Was she dreaming? The child was clearly still in his stomach yesterday. She must be dreaming, because after waking up, the child will come back, right?

"Master …" Little Qing gently called out.

"All of you can go now. I need some rest." Rong'er felt very tired. She needed to sleep, and when she woke up, she might find that it was all fake.

Within the palace, Xuan Ye was sitting at a table. Two hours before the morning assembly, the head eunuch of the palace, Zhang DeShun and Aunt Ning, was kneeling on the floor.

"Why didn't Noble Lady Rong tell us about it?" Xuan Ye suppressed the grief and indignation in his heart and asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty …" "The servants wanted to tell the emperor that …" Aunt Ning said in fright before glancing at Zhang DeShun beside her.

"Speak!" Seeing that they were hesitating, Xuan Ye shouted.

"This servant deserves to die!" This servant deserves to die! " Zhang DeShun kept kowtowing, "This old servant saw that it was already late at night and that Your Majesty and the Noble Lady An have already rested, so …" So this old servant thought to tell the emperor after Noble Lady Rong has successfully produced her, and begged the emperor to forgive me. This old servant was actually looking at the emperor's hard work day and night and couldn't bear to disturb his sleep. "

Xuan Ye closed his eyes in heartache. He raised his head to look at Zhang DeShun and asked, "Zhang DeShun, how long have you been by my side?"

"Huang …" "Your Majesty …" Zhang DeShun did not know what Xuan Ye meant, "This old servant has been serving the emperor since he ascended the throne. This old servant has been serving him for almost thirteen years."

"Yeah, it's been thirteen years and you've been by my side for thirteen years. Do you still not know what I care about?" Xuan Ye said in pain, "You think the Noble Lady Rong is spoiled? "You've been by my side for thirteen years. You don't understand me, but I do understand you. I know what you're thinking."

"Your majesty, this old servant is stupid." Zhang DeShun hurriedly kowtowed to Xuan Ye.

"That's right, you're old, so you'll have to give up on your job. Considering how much you've been by my side all these years, I'll allow you to return to your hometown." Xuan Ye said as he gently rubbed his forehead.

"Thank you, your majesty. This old servant can no longer serve the emperor by your side. I hope that your majesty will take care of my dragon body. This old servant will stay at home to serve the emperor." Pray every day, pray for peace and clarity, and pray for the health of the Emperor's dragon body! " Zhang DeShun said as he kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.

Xuan Ye nodded and said softly, "Alright, go down and pack up. I will get the Internal Affairs Bureau to give you some silver. Go back and properly retire."

Zhang DeShun kowtowed once again to Xuan Ye and left. Xuan Ye called out, "Consultant, go to Diagram Sea and meet at the Palace."

"Yes." The advisor went to spread the news while Xuan Ye sat in the palace. He felt a sense of desolation. The war in the south was chaotic, and the palace was filled with countless tragic events. "God of Heaven, are you training for me?" One piece after another, wasn't it enough? Great! You do it! I will endure it. No matter how great the suffering, I will endure it. I will prove it to the heavens! No matter how great the pain is, I will endure it! Xuan Ye gritted his teeth, furiously slamming the table.

With a "thump," the hearts of the palace maids by the side quivered.
