Princess Shun finally felt relieved. She was so frightened that she almost harmed the Crown Princess.
In the west hall, the old prince was explaining what happened after his death.
"The funeral does not need to be extravagant. It should be carried out in a low-key manner. There will be no funeral rituals. If you are interested, just come and offer me a stick of incense..."
It was very difficult for him to speak, but his words were clear and coherent, and his enunciation was a little vague, and both the Queen Mother and the Emperor could understand him.
His expression suddenly tightened, he grabbed the Queen Mother's wrist, and raised his head slightly, "There is only one thing I have to ask of the Queen Mother. I have been in love with the Princess for decades, and have no children behind me. After I leave, she will There was no one to accompany her. She had told the king a long time ago that I would go, and she also accompanied me, but I hope she could live and live a good life for a few years..."
"I have been suffering from illness since ten years ago. She has never had a good night's sleep or a comfortable meal. After I leave, she no longer needs to worry so much and can live a peaceful life for a few days, so , No matter what, you have to persuade her and never ask her to go with me..."
"If she is determined to die, tell her that I will look for our daughter first. If I find her, I will wait for her on the road to hell. She must burn incense and report to the world. I pray to God for mercy that I can find my daughter smoothly. , so that she can survive..."
The Queen Mother was filled with grief after hearing this, and her tears finally fell to the ground. After so many years of husband and wife, the person next to her pillow always knows the other best. The people the old Princess cared about all her life were him and her daughter who died in infancy. Let her Only with my daughter in mind can I have the courage to live.
"Uncle, don't worry, I will work hard to do it..."
The old prince stared hard, "It's not about effort, it's about determination. You are the emperor, and you must keep your word. You must never break your trust."
"Yes, I understand." The emperor couldn't help but feel sour in his nose.
After hearing this assurance, the old prince's excitement slowly calmed down, and he looked at the door again, with warmth on his withered face, "Call her here, I always look forward to seeing her more, and I can't bear to have her leave me." of."
The Queen Mother wiped away her tears and looked at the old prince, who was clearly in serious pain, trying hard to pretend to be fine, and couldn't help but feel extremely uncomfortable.
The emperor went to open the door, but the old princess had been standing outside. As soon as the door opened, she immediately returned to the old prince's side, held his hand, and looked at each other. The past memories of their youth appeared in each other's eyes one by one.
In the evening, the old prince's condition became more and more serious. After being drowsy for a while, he said that he wanted to see his old subordinates. The old princess arranged for people to come in, three or five at a time, and they were not allowed to talk much. She only called him once. .
Perhaps meeting his old comrades reminded him of the days when he was young and fighting on the battlefield, and his willpower returned a little, and he was no longer so groggy.
The emperor has ordered people to invite Nangong Yitian and ask him to put down his errands and come back.
All the princes have also arrived, and they are asked to send the old prince as his great-grandson.
This is also the emperor's decree. The old prince has no children and has not adopted any royal children. When he leaves, he cannot be deserted and must be surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
Late at night, most of the royal family came. Although the Nangong clan had a clan leader, they respected the old prince.
Everyone came forward to kowtow, but in his daze, the old prince grabbed the old princess's hand and called the old princess by her maiden name at first, but finally called "Yier".
When he said this, he opened his eyes and glanced at the people in the west hall. He didn't know if he could see clearly, but there was some disappointment in his eyes, so he called again, "Where's Yi'er?"
