Rong'er, who had been enduring his grief, couldn't control his emotions any longer. Tears also rolled down his face as he said, ”You, me, Xiu-Er, Jing`er, all of us entered the palace in the same year and were fortunate enough to become the emperor's women. But why did Jing`er leave us like this? Rowan, I'm really sad.”
”Elder sister.” Ruo Lan stepped forward and embraced Rong'er. ”Jing`er will pay you back with blessings. She isn't a bad person. She didn't mean to offend the Son of Heaven. The heavens will be merciful.”
”Ruo Lan, is Ling Qiao`er very sad while crying?” Rong'er looked up.
Ruo Lan nodded. ”Very sad. I didn't expect her to be such a sentimental person.”
Rong'er also nodded. ”That's right. Maybe we all misjudged her.”
”She also said that she was going to worship Buddha with me from tomorrow onwards. She would pray for the honor of our family.” Roran said.
Rong'er smelled the faint scent of incense and felt the calmness of her heart. Zhilan was right, Jing`er said before that this was her release, she would definitely get a blessing in return …
”Ruo Lan, we need to live a strong life. We need to live a good life. Only then will Jing`er feel at ease …” Rong'er muttered.
”Right, live well!” Ruo Lan nodded heavily, suddenly thinking, ”Elder sister, did you hear about it today? And the concubine is pregnant. ”
”Yes.” Rong'er replied.
”Because of Jing`er, the Emperor no longer doted on you like he did before. Have you thought about what to do with you?” ”Don't be too sad. If you want to find satisfaction in your heart, then join me in worshipping and chanting Buddhist scriptures.” Ruo Lan said softly.
”To Buddha? I will bow, but for the time being I will not take her as the most important thing. ” Rong'er stood up and wiped away the tears on her cheeks. She said softly, ”I want to raise Prince Rong and Prince Zhi properly. They are my hope for survival.”
”If only I could have a son …” Rowland murmured.
”Ruo Lan …” Rong'er realized that she had lost her tongue, so she quickly stepped forward to console her.
Ruo Lan gently shook her head. ”Rong'er, it's fine. I trust Lord Buddha. My two children and I have no mother and son. This is Ruo Lan's life …”
Looking at Ruo Lan's face that was no longer young, with a faint sense of tranquility on it, he thought to himself silently, Ruo Lan, if Buddha can be your religion for your entire life, allowing you to live a happy life, then, living like this isn't a bad thing at all …
”Has Liang Jiu Gong left the palace?” Xuan Ye whispered to the consultant shop in front of him.
”Reporting to the Emperor, everything is going well. We've already left the palace.” The consultant replied.
”I hope Liang Jiu won't go down the drain?” Xuan Ye said with worry.
”Your majesty, you chose him to do it because he's smart. Don't worry, he'll do it well. If nothing goes wrong, he'll return to the palace tomorrow morning.” the counselor whispered reassuringly.
”No one else knows about this, right?” Xuan Ye asked.
”Your Majesty, don't worry. There won't be any problems when the two of us do things.” The consultant replied soothingly.
Xuan Ye nodded. ”Once he returns tomorrow, let him see me.”
”Your servant commands.” The consultant responded loudly.
A gust of spring wind blew, and the candles in the palace swayed and flickered, just like Xuan Ye's heart, unable to stay calm …
