Chapter 383
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Ye Anran asked with concern.

"No... I'm fine." The emperor regained his composure, and immediately rushed to Qixia Palace with Ye Anran.

If Eunuch Zhu hadn't brought the news that Wang Guifei was critically ill, then the emperor might not have remembered Luoyang Wang Yu, even if she was a noble concubine, it would be a tragedy for Wang Yu to enter the palace.

It's just another marriage of politics and wealthy businessmen, the alliance and utilization of power and money.

In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Yu is worthy of envy. She was born in a wealthy family like the Wang family in Luoyang, she is beautiful, and she entered the palace and became a concubine. She should have been happy.

But who knows, she is just a pawn, unable to control her own destiny, she can only watch her own Huanian grow old in this deep palace, and can do nothing but lament.

When Wang Yu entered the palace, she seemed to be in poor health, weak and sickly, so she was unable to bear a child for the emperor, and because she was in a bad mood and suppressed her inner emotions for a long time, her condition became more and more serious. the end.

Qixia Palace

The five imperial doctors of the imperial hospital gathered here, but they were helpless...

When the emperor arrived, the imperial physicians had finished their treatment and were waiting in the outer hall...

Seeing the emperor, they immediately knelt down and saluted: "I will pay my respects to the emperor."

"How is it? How is Yu'er?" Although the relationship is not that deep, the husband and wife still have a kind of affection that cannot be parted.

"If you go back to the emperor, the imperial concubine is suffering from a cold attack, and the ministers are really helpless. I have exhausted all means, and I would like to ask the emperor to see the imperial concubine for the last time." Zheng Taiyi said solemnly.

Although he had prepared himself on the way here, the emperor still felt very sad when he heard the imperial doctor announce the news himself.

Ye Anran patted the emperor on the shoulder and comforted him: "Your majesty, why don't you go in and see sister Wang?"

"En." The emperor nodded sadly and entered the inner hall.

Ye Anran and the imperial physicians were all waiting in the outer hall, and after a while the queen mother and empress also rushed over.

Seeing Ye Anran, the queen mother turned her face away, as if she was very bored...

"The concubine greets the empress dowager, and the empress dowager." Ye Anran bowed obediently.

"Stay flat, where's the emperor?" The queen asked without caring about anything else.

"The emperor is with sister Wang in the inner hall." Ye Anran answered truthfully.

When the queen heard this, she turned around and said to the queen mother: "Queen mother, look, my concubine, let's wait here for a while, maybe Wang Guifei wants to spend more time with the emperor."

"En." The Queen Mother didn't say anything, but just nodded.

Qixia Palace Inner Hall

The emperor walked in, screened away all the maids who were close to him, walked to the bed, looked at the pale Wang Guifei, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, very uncomfortable.

"Your majesty... are you here?" Wang Yu forced herself to speak, but her voice was extremely weak.

"Yu'er, don't talk, just take a good rest. It's okay. I'll watch over you. Don't worry, you'll make it through." The emperor sat down and held Wang Yu's hand. pain.

Concubine Wang gave a pale smile: "Your Majesty, don't comfort... the concubine, the concubine... knows, if I don't say some things... in the future... there will be no chance."

"Don't say that, you will get better, the imperial doctors are waiting outside, I must make them do their best to save you." The emperor really didn't know how to comfort a person who was struggling on the verge of remembrance.

"Your Majesty... During the past few years in the palace, the courtiers and concubines have been loved and loved by the Emperor and canonized as... noble concubines. They live a very leisurely life. There are enough ministers and concubines. After the concubine dies... just ask... just ask..." Your Majesty, don't bury your concubines in the imperial mausoleum...the concubines want...want to go home, go back to Luoyang...want to guard the land of Luoyang, but...how about it?" Concubine Wang struggled to say every word.

In fact, she was already terminally ill half a month ago and frequently vomited blood. The little maid wanted to report to the emperor, but she stopped her because she didn't want others to think that she was using her body to win the emperor's favor, just like Chen Xi, Frequently pretending to be sick to win the emperor's sympathy, she Wang Yu couldn't do it, if she wanted to flatter her, she could have done it as early as when she entered the palace, why wait until today.

People are different, if Chenxi is a beautiful narcissus with clear water, then Shen Bilan is a peony, graceful and luxurious, Ye Anran is an orchid, elegant and charming, and Wang Yu is a red plum that blooms against the snow in the cold winter. His integrity and arrogance cannot be underestimated and contemptuous.

Such a woman is destined not to win the emperor's heart, nor her own happiness...

Maybe before Wang Yu entered the palace, she had the same affiliation as Ye Anyao, and had the happiness she wanted, but helplessly, being born in the Wang family in Luoyang, it was doomed to have no choice in the future.

For the sake of the family, she is willing to endure the loneliness in the deep palace and win the supreme glory for the family, making the Luoyang royal family so unattainable, so precious and mysterious in the eyes of the world.

Now, her mission is completed, she is also tired, and seems to be leaving this world...

Unlike other women, what Wang Yu asked for before her death was not love, she didn't ask the emperor to remember her, and she didn't want to live in the imperial mausoleum to make her immortal. She was just an ordinary woman, and all she wanted was to go home.

She has a dignified love for her hometown, but she has never returned to Luoyang during the years in the palace. No one can understand her heart.

"Okay, I promise you." The emperor couldn't bear to face such a woman who sacrificed herself under his own politics. He couldn't refuse the last wish of a poor woman.

At the beginning, the national treasury was empty, and the Queen Mother reached an agreement with the patriarch of the Luoyang royal family, Wang Yu's father, that Luoyang would provide money and people, and the Xigong royal family would give them the supreme family glory.

Let Luoyang royal family, a commoner and rich merchant family, produce a noble concubine with infinite beauty. You must know that the noble concubine is second only to the queen in the harem, and it is a position that all the girls in the Tianmu country envy and hate.

So Wang Yu entered the palace under the envy of everyone, and lived there for more than three years...

For more than three years, she seldom laughed, seldom cried, seldom talked about other concubines, and would not take the initiative to invite pets. She avoided many dinner parties and lived alone in Qixia Palace, guarding the loneliness of one side, and lived a cold life every day.

Now, at the end of her life, when everyone is sad and sad for her, her mood is extremely relaxed.

Maybe she was finally free, and finally waited for this day... Maybe death was a relief for her.

"Thank you... Your Majesty." Wang Yu smiled with tears in his eyes.

This smile is incomparably beautiful. This is the first time the emperor saw Wang Yu smile from the heart. In fact, she is a very beautiful girl, but she has a cold temper, doesn't like excitement, and doesn't bother to do things that violate her principles, so she has been fading out of people. Sight.

"Yu'er, I am ashamed of treating you. In the past three years, I have indeed neglected you." The emperor raised his head, trying not to let his tears flow.

For Wang Yu, he still can't like it, as if this thing is destined to bear the label of a pawn, always reminding himself that she is a woman he negotiated with the Wang family.

So until now when Wang Yu was about to leave, the emperor really didn't know what to say except sorry.

Wang Yu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her voice was so small that she couldn't hear it...

"Yu'er, what do you want to say?" The emperor lowered his head, trying to get closer, but he didn't hear anything.

When he was about to speak, he found that Wang Yu had closed his eyes forever, and there was still that touching smile on the corner of his mouth, which was also the last smile.

The emperor couldn't help but shed tears and walked out of the inner hall...

Seeing the emperor came out, the queen mother hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is Wang Yu?"

"She's gone." It seemed so difficult to say the three words from the emperor's mouth.

"Ah?" The queen mother was obviously caught off guard and froze in place.

It can be seen that the emperor is really sad, this year seems to be doomed not to go well, from Concubine Ning's departure, then Ye Anyao's death, to the current death of Concubine Wang Guifei, the emperor has been physically and mentally exhausted.

After hearing this, all the people in the outer hall immediately knelt down in unison: "May the emperor mourn, and the empress dowager express condolences."

"It is my oral decree that Wang Yu will be conferred the title of Imperial Concubine Chunyi, and her body will be escorted back to Luoyang for a dignified burial as a noble concubine." The emperor came back to his senses and said word by word.

"Your Majesty, Wang Yu is a noble concubine, how can she be sent back to Luoyang for burial, she has to enter the imperial mausoleum." The Empress Dowager seemed to feel that something was wrong, reminding her.

"My queen, this is her last wish, and I promised her, I beg my mother to forgive me and make an exception once." The emperor said in a low voice.

"So that's the case, then... Aijia naturally has nothing to say." The queen mother stopped talking afterward.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was not good, Ye Anran stepped forward and took the emperor's arm and said, "Your majesty, my concubine will help you to rest for a while."

"En." The emperor nodded, and then walked out of Qixia Palace with Ye Anran's support.

Originally, Concubine Chen who was standing aside wanted to say these words, but before she could speak, Ye Anran preempted her again.

Helpless, just stood there silently...

Concubine Wang Guifei died of illness, and then the imperial decree was announced to the world. In order to make up for the guilt he felt towards Wang Yu, the emperor named Wang Nian, the son of the Luoyang royal family, the Marquis of Anle, and the official worship was the third rank.

Three days later, Wang Nian came from the Wang family in Luoyang, ready to take his sister's body back to Luoyang for burial.

On this day, Wang Guifei's body left the palace, and everyone in the harem stood in two rows to bid farewell, each with a heavy heart.

Ye Anran stood at the front, dressed in white, looking at all this with tears in her eyes. In fact, she blamed herself very much. Before, she had a very unpleasant fight with Concubine Wang Guifei because of the tea. It was indescribably dull.

Wang Nian was dressed in white and looked extremely serious. Although the Wang family in Luoyang was a big family, but in the direct line, there were only two children, Wang Nian and Wang Yu.

Now that his own sister has passed away, Wang Nian is naturally very sad...

When walking past Ye Anran, Wang Nian stopped, turned sideways and asked softly: "Anran, I also deeply regret the matter with your sister. I couldn't see her off for the last time. I'm sorry."
