C228

I have seen fourteen princes and princesses die after so many years in this palace, and I have seen four of my own children die. Death is too easy in this palace, and perhaps one day I will die too, and I thought I was numb to death, but when I saw Yin Yu die suddenly, my heart would still ache. Why do I have to be so cruel to them? My heart really hurts so much...

However, the empress dowager's body had always been sick, so she was really unable to travel together with him. Thus, Xuan Ye decided to travel alone, this time without Yin Wei and Chu Ah ge, he initially wanted to bring Imperial Concubine Yi along, but Yin Yu was too young, so the Imperial Concubine Yi did not want to be seen by others, so she did not want to travel together with him. In the end, Xuan Ye brought Imperial Concubine Yi, Imperial Concubine De and Imperial Concubine Hui to Ancient Bei City to take shelter during the summer, while Wen Xian and Yin Qi, the little princess of Imperial Concubine De taught their concubines how to temporarily take care of them, and Yin Zhu, who was raised by Imperial Concubine Hui, was taught by her concubines how to temporarily take care of them.

After the imperial physician checked in, he said that the disease was caused by high fever, causing him to cough and cough. Rong'er was truly shocked, this illness had already taken away the lives of so many princes, Rong'er reported it to the empress dowager, who sent a letter to the emperor. Due to the empress dowager's lack of health, the empress dowager didn't dare to complain to the empress dowager, and Rong'er spent the entire day with Imperial Concubine Yi worrying about this bitter child.

It had been almost half a year, and when her mood was gradually recovering, something like this suddenly happened. Imperial Concubine Yi was already grieving, and Rong'er was very worried every time she looked at her, and felt that the current her was like a fragile porcelain bottle, that would break if she was unable to calm down. Imperial Concubine Yi had not rested for a long time already, so she took care of Yu Yu without rest, causing Yin Yu to become slightly agitated, but Rong'er had tried to persuade her to rest a few times, but to no avail.

Although Imperial Concubine Yi had taken care of Yin Yu wholeheartedly, she still did not leave Yin Yu's life. The heavens had once treated noble Le Yu cruelly, but now the child who treated him so cruelly was the same child that Yin Yu had once given her. The candle flame in Yin Yu's womb flickered one night, and at that time, it was already hot in June, but Rong'er felt a chill as she looked at the Imperial Concubine Yi crying beside the child. Rong'er knew that this was noble Lei's wish for the prince. "Yi Yu is dead, while the child that noble reigns for his life is dead …" Everything happened so fast that it was hard for people to breathe. In her stupor, Rong'er vaguely remembered that the Inner Palace had come to hug the prince, while the Imperial Concubine Yi did their best to stop them, but in the end, the child was carried away. Like his previous brothers who had passed away, he was turned into ashes …

The empress dowager also knew about this and sent over nun Su Ma La to comfort her. Rong'er guessed that the empress dowager must be feeling very sad right now, and she'd hide her sadness well. Perhaps only Aunt Su Ma La would have the chance to see it.

That night, Rong'er would never want to experience it again. It was a heart-wrenching pain, she had once injured her child, but she realized that when she was over thirty years old and was faced with this kind of sadness again, her state of mind would actually be a little different, because this child was closely connected to Noble Le. This was because this was the tragedy of Lei Gui and Yin Yu's lives, Imperial Concubine Yi had not rested and ate properly for a few days already.

Looking at Imperial Concubine Yi's pale and bloodless face, Rong'er's heart felt like it was being cut by knives. She truly liked this pair of sisters, they were always that happy, that happy. If she was with them, she would be infected by their liveliness, but now, one had already died, and the other was already so haggard and sorrowful. Who could be more pitiful in this palace? When you think of yourself as a miserable person, there will always be someone more miserable than you, thinking that the Lai noble's last hope for the world really died just like that. Rong'er's tears had long ago dampened her face, and she allowed his tears to flow like rain. Under the dim yellow candlelight, Rong'er sat by the side of Imperial Concubine Yi's bed, quietly waiting like this, alone feeling the sorrowful pain eroding his heart.

It had already been five or six days since Yin Yu passed away, and Imperial Concubine Yi did not have any expression other than sadness on her face anymore. On the tenth day, the palace received a letter from Xuan Ye, stating that their group was on patrol, and would be leaving for the Yingyi Tang Spring. At the same time, there would be someone to take Imperial Concubine Yi to the Yingyi Tang Spring to meet up and recuperate.

When Rong'er told Imperial Concubine Yi of this news, his face was still wooden and expressionless. Rong'er sighed lightly. Perhaps at this moment, only the Emperor could comfort her heart, which was on the verge of dying from grief.

"Elder sister, the emperor isn't here …" Imperial Concubine Yi suddenly said quietly, "When Yi Lu died, the emperor wasn't here. When Yin Yu died, the emperor wasn't here either …" Accompanying the voice, Imperial Concubine Yi's large teardrops fell.

"Yilan …" "His Majesty is sad, or else he would not have sent for you. He would have treated you well and made it up to you. He would have concentrated his love for you and your sister, and for Yin Yu, on you alone."

"Big sister, how can I face Yi Lu in the future? I didn't take care of Yin Yu. If he dies, Yi Lu will blame me." The Imperial Concubine Yi said in a sorrowful tone, "She would also say, why did you take all the good things, why did I, a prince, have to die, why are my children unable to grow up?" Imperial Concubine Yi imitated Yi Lu's tone with tears in her eyes.

"Yilan, Yi Lu won't blame you. From the sky, she can see how diligently you are taking care of Yin and Yu. She can see that, she definitely can see that, and she won't blame you …"

"Elder sister …" Imperial Concubine Yi finally began to cry loudly, making Rong'er feel a bit more at ease. It had been so long, and Imperial Concubine Yi had always been crying quietly, or else she would have been in a daze with a sorrowful face. Now that she finally cried loudly, she needed to vent …

Two days later, the Imperial Concubine Yi left for the English Hot Springs. She hoped that the Emperor could caress her and help her walk out from the shadows of her sorrow … Rong'er really missed Imperial Concubine Yi's carefree personality and her brilliant smile.
