Pretty Fox: Misunderstood His Royal Highness

Chapter 729 Are You So Heartless? 5
Yuan Qingluo was right, but hearing what Deng Xueer heard, she felt both hatred and jealousy.At present, Deng Xueer is not in the mood to talk about this.Her face was full of haze, as if she was angry, but more anxious, panicked, and at a loss, her voice trembled slightly: "His Royal Highness——"

Yuan Qing was calm and composed, with a light smile on the corner of his mouth.He sat on the chair, crossed his legs, swayed them again and again, narrowed his slender eyes slightly, and asked slowly: "What is the purpose of concubine Chen coming to the East Palace to find me?"

Deng Xueer glanced around.He hesitated for a while: "His Royal Highness, can these maidservants avoid it for a while?"

Yuan Qingluo waved lightly at the two maidservants beside him: "You all go out, you can't come in without my order."

"Yes. His Royal Highness."

After the two maidservants went out, Deng Xueer walked up to Yuan Qingluo and knelt down with a "plop".She cried: "His Royal Highness, save me! Your Royal Highness, please save me!"

Zhu Qiqi was startled and opened his eyes wide.

Huh?What happened?

On the contrary, Yuan Qingluo was very calm and relaxed.He knew the reason why Deng Xueer came to him.But he pretended to be confused and looked terrified. He stood up with a "whoosh" and stepped aside: "Chenfei empress, don't be like this. This prince can't afford your big gift. If you give it to father See, this...how is this good?"

Deng Xueer's expression was full of resentment, she cried and said: "The emperor is so sick that he can't even get out of bed, how could he see it?"

Yuan Qingluo was still pretending, with a look of sincerity and fear, and his voice was still moderately trembling: "Father will not see it, but... your great gift, this crown prince can't afford it." Yuan Qingluo said while turning to Zhu Qiqi She winked: "Concubine Chen, get up quickly."

　Zhu Qiqi understood.

　She walked over to help Deng Xueer up.But Deng Xueer didn't want to get up, she fell on the ground and cried bitterly: "His Royal Highness, please save me! Please save me!"

　After the emperor fell ill, the most terrified person was Deng Xueer.

It is generally believed that the soul is immortal after death, and it just goes to another world. In order to avoid the soul being lonely and helpless in the coffin, people who were loved during life, or some things necessary for life, are buried with them. It is an ultra-violent, ultra-perverted, and ultra-cruel way to always accompany the owner.

The Yuan family dynasty of Nanyue Kingdom has always had a system of "palace concubine burial": the emperor passed away, all his concubines and concubines during his lifetime, except the queen, and concubines and concubines who gave birth to princes for the emperor, and the rest, They all had to be buried for the emperor—the concubines and concubines were buried with the emperor, and the maidservants around them were buried with them.

There are exceptions.

The list of burials is determined by the empress. Those concubines and concubines who have a bad relationship with the empress and have feuds, even if they give birth to several princes, the empress can find a reason to ask her to be buried if she wants to take revenge.

This is one of the reasons why the queen tried everything possible to become a queen regardless of the consequences.

Now that the queen is dead, the concubines and concubines who accompany the emperor to be buried are determined by the prince and several concubines with high status and high prestige.

Deng Xueer, one of the emperor's never-born concubines and concubines, if the emperor died, according to the rules, she would be no exception, and she would also have to be buried for him - judging by the emperor's condition, she didn't live long.
