Chapter 800 I Never Want to Meet Him Again (137 Million Votes Plus)
Liu Shiqing had told him long ago that His Majesty was heartless and not worthy of his love at all.
She has long given up on His Majesty.
But the favor he has enjoyed over the years is not fake.
Nangong Xuanyu's kindness and preference for her had always made Liu Shiqing have a subconscious thought deep in her heart -
That is, no matter what she does, His Majesty will not take her life.
Unexpectedly... Unexpectedly, this time, she hadn't even made a move on Shen Zhinian, but just touched Concubine Sun, and His Majesty issued a decree of death...
Liu Shiqing never doubted the authenticity of this decree.
Because she knew that no one in the palace had the courage to forge an imperial edict, and Li Changde would not cooperate.
Your Majesty... he has such a cruel heart!
At this moment, Liu Shiqing felt both heartbroken and hateful.
I hate that she didn't have the chance to take revenge on Shen Zhinian!
She hated His Majesty for being so heartless and doting on her, but she also hated her domineering behavior. However, she never had the chance to take revenge on him.
Li Changde lowered his head and said, "Liu, let's get going."
Things have come to this point. Liu Shiqing was born proud and never was the type to beg for mercy.
She closed her eyes, two lines of tears ran down her face. Then she picked up the white silk on the table, slowly stood up and hung it on the beam.
"...Eunuch Li, please tell His Majesty that I loved him deeply in this life and would rather die with him than not. I, Liu Shiqing, have no regrets. But if there is a next life, I don't want to meet him again..."
Li Changde's heart trembled slightly: "...Please rest assured, I will convey your message for you."
Liu Shiqing tied a knot in the white silk, slowly put his head in, then closed his eyes and resolutely kicked away the stool under his feet.
As she was about to die, the last thing she thought about was no longer the grudges with Shen Zhinian, nor the unforgettable past with Nangong Xuanyu, but the eldest princess...
Her poor eldest princess is going to lose her mother at such a young age...
After all, she was sorry for Yun'er, and she couldn't spend Yun'er's fifth birthday with her...
Looking at Liu Shiqing's body hanging on the beam, gradually changing from subconscious struggle to calmness, Li Changde sighed, lowered his head and said: "Rest in peace, noble lady Liu..."
After the matter was over, Li Changde returned to the Yangxin Palace to report.
His Majesty has always acted as if he didn't care about Liu Shiqing at all. Even when he heard that she was mentally ill, he still resolutely sentenced her to death.
Others may feel that Concubine Liu really has no weight at all in His Majesty's heart.
However, Li Changde noticed that when he left, His Majesty was holding this memorial. After so long, His Majesty was still holding this memorial when he came back.
It seems that His Majesty was not completely indifferent to the decision to execute Lady Liu...
But there is more than just Concubine Liu in your Majesty’s harem.
She has done so many evil things and even reached out to the royal heir. If Your Majesty continues to indulge her, how can you convince the people?
But your majesty must also be feeling sad and sighing...
Li Changde bent over and spoke softly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Liu has gone..."
Nangong Xuanyu's face was calm, but the fingers holding the memorial tightened slightly, and one could even see the veins on the back of his hand: "... Was Liu still unconscious when she set out on the journey?"
Li Changde shook his head: "Your Majesty, when I went there, Concubine Liu had regained consciousness. Before she died, she had a few words for me to tell Your Majesty..."
Nangong Xuanyu was silent for a long time before he asked in a complicated tone: "...What did you say?"
For some reason, the emperor's aura was obviously calm, but Li Changde was still so nervous that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He took a deep breath and then slowly said, "Lady Liu said that she loved you like a moth to a flame in this life, and she has no regrets. But if there is an afterlife, she doesn't want to meet you again."
Nangong Xuanyu did not express his opinion after hearing this, and continued to hold the memorial in silence...
By this time it was already dark, and the people from the Jingshifang, as per custom, brought over trays of green cards and asked the emperor to flip over the cards.
But before the leading eunuch came in, Li Changde waved at him.
Go! Go! Go!
Today, His Majesty is still in the mood to turn over the cards? It would be bad luck for them to come here at this time.
Although the eunuchs in the Jingshifang were a little confused, they knew that it was right to listen to Eunuch Li, so they immediately bent over and retreated.
I don’t know how much time had passed, Nangong Xuanyu stood up and walked out silently.
Li Changde followed silently behind him.
After leaving the Yangxin Palace and looking at the direction the emperor was walking, Li Changde instantly understood that his majesty was going to the Yongshou Palace...
Up to now, no new people have moved into the main hall or the side halls of Yongshou Palace. The main hall even maintains the appearance when Liu Shiqing lived there.
Nangong Xuanyu didn't say anything, just looked at the table and chairs inside in silence. No one knew what he was thinking.
Li Changde didn't dare to disturb him and even breathed lighter.
Nangong Xuanyu seemed to be talking to him, but also seemed to be talking to himself: "...I never thought of taking her life."
"I feel that her character is so arrogant and domineering. If she has a noble status, she will definitely bully others and take human lives lightly. So I only let her be a court lady of the lowest rank and confine her in Lixuan Pavilion. I think that this way she will behave herself."
"I have always thought that if she can stay calm and contented, after Yun'er gets married, I will give her a concubine position and let her live out her old age in the harem."
"But why is she so stubborn..."
"What crime did Lady Sun commit? What crime did the child commit? I cannot pretend that I don't know that she murdered a pregnant concubine."
If it were someone else, they might comfort the emperor at this time, saying that all of this was Liu Shiqing's own fault, that she was unworthy of the emperor's kindness and good intentions, and that it was not worth it for the emperor to be sad for her.
But Li Changde understood that although His Majesty kept blaming Concubine Liu, he still couldn't let it go in his heart...
Speaking ill of Concubine Liu in front of His Majesty at this time would be truly courting death.
Moreover, in this situation, what His Majesty needs is not comfort, but someone who will not reveal his secrets and listen to his inner thoughts quietly.
……
No one knew what happened in Yongshou Palace that night.
Liu Shiqing was buried in the imperial mausoleum as a noble lady.
The emperor still went to court every day, reviewed memorials, and flipped cards. It seemed that the death of Liu Shiqing, who was once the most favored concubine in the harem, did not leave any ripples in Nangong Xuanyu's heart.
A few days later, the fifth prince was one month old.
Because he was born prematurely and was weak, He Yuanpan said that he should not have too much contact with the outside world. Therefore, the fifth prince's full moon ceremony was only held simply, and he did not even show up.
Ten days passed in a flash, and the eldest princess's stay in Duke Dingguo's mansion was over. Nanny Yuan personally brought people to bring her back to the palace.
