Le Tian foolishly looked at Ji Tian Ning, his heart filled with boundless pity. To be able to look at her at such a close distance, just what else could he ask for? Even though she was a prisoner and could be executed at any time, as long as she was able to stay by her side, she would have no regrets.
He suddenly understood what Li Hantian was thinking. He also had the same thought!
”Empress, please stop mourning. I believe that the Heavens must not wish for the Empress to be so sorrowful. The Empress must take care of herself.”
Ji Tian Ning was at a loss. Why did she have to take care of herself? For whom should she take care of herself?
What entered his eyes was a jade box placed on top of the table. It was the remains of Hateful Heavens.
”Give me that jade box.”
Le Tian handed the jade box over to Ji Tian Ning. He didn't know that the jade box contained the remains of Li Hantian.
The jade box was indescribably heavy, suppressing Ji Tian Ning's heart. He only left behind this small box of ashes, which then turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the world. Or perhaps, he should not have been a mortal living in a muddy world and had only returned to his own world.
Looking around, it was as if he was somewhere unknown, gazing at her with a pair of affectionate eyes.
She lowered her head to look at the jade box in her arms. This was something she could not bear, and it hurt her the most.
He slowly opened the jade box. The small lid of the box weighed a thousand kilograms, revealing the ashes and some remains within. With a single glance, she closed the lid of the box tightly. Even to this day, she was still unable to imagine that handsome and valiant man becoming ashes within the jade box.
He let go of her hand and fainted again. A huge sadness knocked her down.
Le Tian quickly stood up and held Ji Tian Ning's wrist. After checking her pulse, she heaved a sigh of relief. She was too sad and too tired. She needed to rest properly.
He took the jade box that Ji Tian Ning was still tightly hugging to his chest and was stunned for a moment. He understood that the ashes and remains in the box were left behind by Li Hen after he was cremated.
He gently placed the jade box on the table and waited by Ji Tian Ning's side.
”Le Tian.”
A voice called out to him from the door. Le Tian turned around and saw that Wu De had walked in.
He hastily stood up and greeted, ”Greetings, Head Supervisor.”
Wu De looked at the unconscious Ji Tian Ning and slightly frowned. ”Is the Empress not awake yet?”
”The Empress has woken up once, and fainted again. The Empress's emotions are unstable, so it's better for her to rest.”
”The emperor has woken up. Esteemed Empress Xuan wishes to meet him.”
”Right now, the Empress is not in a good position to see the Emperor, so as to not arouse any emotions. The blow the Empress has received is too great, making it difficult for her to recover in a short period of time.” If the Empress felt uneasy, she could no longer continue to treat the Emperor. I request that the steward play the emperor and let the Empress rest for a few days. ”
Wu De walked to the front of the bed and lowered his head to look at the unconscious Ji Tian Ning. Her face was now as white as a sheet, and her eyebrows were tightly knitted.
It had only been a single night, but she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
”Take good care of the Empress and nourish her, so that she can recover quickly.”
”It's the Head Supervisor.”
Wu De turned around and walked out. With Ji Tian Ning's current condition, it was obviously impossible for her to see the reverse scale. He shook his head and sighed. Why did the Emperor have to kill that Hu'zi and turn things into such an unmanageable mess?
”Reporting to Your Majesty, the Empress is too ill and unconscious to come forward to meet the Emperor.”
”Pa …”
Huo Ni Lin slammed the table, ”How dare she not come and meet me!”
”Your Majesty, the Empress is currently unconscious, and it is not against Your Majesty's orders. May the emperor calm his anger and let the Empress rest for a few days to recover her health. ”The Empress has already given instructions on how to treat the emperor's illness with medicine. It won't be too late for the emperor to summon you when the Empress wakes up and is slightly better.”
”He's unconscious?”
”Yes, the Empress has already fainted twice. She should rest in silence for a few days. This servant has just gone to see the Empress, and the Empress is extremely haggard. ”
”Humph!”
”Humph!” Huo Ni Lin snorted coldly. Who was it that caused her to be haggard and unconscious?
”It's all because of that Hu'er!”
They had all known for a long time how crazy and out of control the reverse scale was, and no one dared to disobey him even a little.
”What happened to that Hu'er's body?”
”Reporting to your majesty, he has already been burnt to ashes.”
After a while, he walked to the door and opened it to look outside. What entered his sight was a sheet of snow-white snow that covered the place where Hateful Sky's body was originally burned. There were no longer any traces of it.
No matter how envious and resentful he was in his heart, a dead person was not worth his effort to think about it.
