The Queen's meaning is clear.

Like all mothers, she fears death, even when her child is young.

But she does not believe in rebirth in the world, and instinctively realizes that so-called rebirth requires a price, and most of the price is the lives of others.

This is really embarrassing.

She Shuxian thought to herself, wondering if the decision to save the queen was right or wrong.

Just as she was wandering around, Guerjia Yingluo came over and saluted She Shuxian: "Good luck, Concubine Xian."

"Mrs. Fucha."

Yingluo felt shy when she heard this, and said, "Concubine Xian, let's continue to call Yingluo, it sounds more comfortable this way."

"makes sense."

She Shuxian asked her to sit down, and said, "Yingluo, your mother's condition is very bad, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive these few days."

"Yingluo came here for this purpose," Yingluo said, "Your Majesty treats Yingluo better than her relatives. Yingluo hopes to be by her side in her last moments."

"Yingluo, you really have a heart."

But Yingluo said: "My concubine, Yingluo has a merciless request."

"Speaking……"

"Yingluo wants to invite my empress to have an audience with the emperor with Yingluo, and ask the emperor to allow my empress to stop being a queen from now on, and only be Fucha Rongyin."

"This--"

She Shuxian didn't know how to answer.

Yingluo said slowly: "When Yingluo was still in the Changchun Palace, the empress mentioned to Yingluo many times what happened when she was the daughter of the Fucha family. At that time, the empress was carefree and could ride horses, laugh, and watch as much as she wanted. You can go wherever you want, you don't have to watch your words, you don't have to follow the rules... She said that was the happiest time for her..."

Referring to the past, Yingluo inevitably shed tears, and said sadly: "Your Majesty is a queen and enjoys the respect of all people, but Yingluo knows that she is not happy, and she has never been happy... Yingluo can't ask God to let Yingluo die for her mother. I did my best to get the emperor to allow the empress to be Fucha Rongyin in the last few days of her life..."

"So that's how it is," She Shuxian said, "I understand, I will accompany you to see the emperor right now!"

"Xie Xian, the noble concubine."

……

Guarjiayingluo's request made Qianlong furious, but fortunately She Shuxian reminded him that Guerjiayingluo, who was kneeling in front of him, was Fu Heng's wife and the queen's sister-in-law. Step back and never mention this again!

However, Guerjiayingluo had acted recklessly when she was on duty in the Changchun Palace, and now she puts life and death aside for Empress Fucha, and even though Longyan is furious, she still speaks out!

"It is not a pity for the slave to die, but the slave must tell the emperor that the empress is not happy! She has been unhappy since the day she entered the palace! If the emperor really loves the empress, please let the empress be Fucha Rongyin! At least, On the last day of my life, I can be Fucha Rongyin again!"

"emperor……"

Li Yu was also moved by these words, and put his hands down, waiting for Qianlong to deal with Guerjia Yingluo.

Qianlong did not speak.

Guarjiayingluo's words touched the most secret and softest corner of his heart.

He has learned the emperor's mind since he was a child, and he understands people's hearts best. How could he not see that the queen is unhappy?

It's just that he doesn't admit it, and he doesn't dare to admit it...

She is the queen, the hostess of the Qing Dynasty, how could she not be as strong as him!

but--

Qianlong clenched his fist, his five fingers creaking.

"emperor……"

Concubine Xian also urged softly.

Qianlong sighed, and said softly, "Send Mrs. Fucha down to rest!"

"Whoo."

Li Yu flicked the whisk and said to Guerjiayingluo: "Madam, you—"

"I know."

Guerjiayingluo got up and retreated with Li Yu, her eyes were burning with anger.

Qianlong saw that she was so ungrateful, he couldn't help feeling angry, and when he turned around and saw She Shuxian was still there, he said coldly, "Why, you also think I did something wrong?"

She Shuxian said: "How could the emperor be wrong? The concubine is envious of the empress being so deeply loved by the emperor. In order to make the empress happy, she tolerated Yingluo's contradicting again and again."

Qianlong was very satisfied with She Shuxian's words, nodded and said: "You are right, if the queen didn't like it, I would have killed this reckless slave long ago!"

"Yes, the emperor is the one who loves the queen the most in the world, and also the one who understands the queen best."

She Shuxian hinted at Qianlong with flattery.

Qianlong also changed his mood at this time, and said: "... I... I... Maybe... Maybe I was really wrong! I know that the queen is not happy, but I still... I... I... Concubine Xian, Go and tell Guerjiayingluo, I agree to her request, from now on, the empress...the empress...is only Fucha Rongyin!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

She Shuxian thanked her and withdrew.

Qianlong looked at the cloudless sky outside the window, but was at a loss.

……

……

Knowing that Qianlong had agreed to her request, Yingluo didn't care about Xie En, so she hurriedly wiped her tears and ran to Empress Fucha to tell the queen the good news.

Empress Fucha was usually calm, but when she heard the news, she couldn't help smiling, and said, "Yingluo, you have been wronged."

Guerjia Yingluo said: "No wronged, Yingluo will not be wronged. As long as the empress is happy, Yingluo will not be wronged."

"You!"

Empress Fucha flicked Yingluo's nose lightly, Yingluo showed a shy smile.

Mingyu also laughed.

Seeing their master and servant happy, She Shuxian intended to leave. When she crossed the threshold, Empress Fucha suddenly said, "Concubine Xian, thank you."

"Mother--"

Mingyu was puzzled, Yingluo had clearly won this matter, why did the empress want to thank Concubine Xian?

Empress Fucha saw this, and explained: "If there is no noble concubine Xian to deal with, how could the emperor change his mind with Yingluo's donkey temper? Yingluo, Mingyu, you all have to thank noble concubine Xian!"

Hearing this, Mingyu and Yingluo got up and said in unison, "Xie Xian, Your Concubine!"

She Shuxian has always positioned herself as the villain of Gongdou, and suddenly received sincere thanks, she felt uneasy, and said: "I just did what I should do. Your Majesty, the Emperor is leaving for Dezhou tomorrow. Let’s enjoy the beautiful spring along the road.”

"That's fine too."

Empress Fucha laughed.

She Shuxian said again: "The emperor allows the empress to only be the voice of Fucha from now on, and the concubines are bold enough to be commensurate with the empress and sisters. I wonder if the empress can—"

"You and I are sisters... No, you are my sister from today, my real sister."

Empress Fucha looked at She Shuxian with a smile, she already understood the meaning of what She Shuxian said.

She Shuxian walked out of the bedroom with a smile, and said to Qianlong who had been waiting outside: "Your Majesty is very happy."

"I have seen," Qianlong said, "I never knew that making the empress happy is so simple..."

At this point, Qianlong hesitated again, and said: "Perhaps, Rongyin's greatest regret in this life is to become my queen."

"The emperor was wrong. The empress has never regretted being the emperor's queen," She Shuxian said. "She once told her concubine that if time goes back and everything goes back to the past, she will still enter the palace as a queen, but if there is an afterlife, she would like to be a queen." I will never meet the emperor, so I will never miss you!"

The last sentence was added by She Shuxian on her own initiative. With Qianlong's narcissistic character, it is absolutely impossible to accept the fact that the woman he loves does not love him as much as he thought.

After listening to She Shuxian's words, Qianlong was really touched, and said: "Queen, you...you..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has never regretted the Emperor, but she has never..."

"I know that she has been unhappy, but because she loves me, she has been patient for me."

Qianlong sighed, and said: "It was my mistake. I made her unhappy, but I didn't realize it until this moment... Concubine Xian, I want you to hold a moon appreciation banquet tomorrow night, just for Fucha Rongyin's moon appreciation." feast."

"Chen and concubine follow the order!"

……

……

A round of bright moon, half of Jiang Qinghui.

Accompanied by Mingyu and Yingluo, Empress Fucha returned to Fucha Rongyin as she wished. However, when the full moon finally set in the west, the sky gradually brightened, and Empress Fucha also began to fear.

She suddenly grabbed Yingluo's hand and said, "Yingluo, watch the sunrise with me, okay?"

"it is good."

With tears in her eyes, Yingluo held Empress Fucha's increasingly cold hand.

In the early morning hours of early spring, the river was cold and windy, and in the faint morning light, a grayish-white bright band could be vaguely seen on the horizon.

Empress Fucha tried her best to raise her head, watching the sky gradually burn dark red, light red, orange red...

Red is constantly changing, suddenly red, sometimes yellow, sometimes magenta, and sometimes purple, unpredictable, and rendered to the best of its ability.

Suddenly, a dazzling sun string emerged from the morning light, tearing the sky, and the bloody sky was covered with magnificent clouds.

The sun is coming out.

It rose from the darkness, so gorgeous, so brilliant, high above the clouds, and shining all over the sky, that no one believed that the depths of the brightest and purest light were bottomless darkness!

"It's so beautiful..."

Empress Fucha said softly, her dying pupils were illuminated by the golden light.

This is the sunrise, the unfettered and incomparably magnificent beauty, which is something she cannot get in her whole life when she is trapped in the deep palace.

"Unfortunately... I am nothing..."

A little sad, but also a little happy, Empress Fucha raised her head and looked at Qianlong and She Shuxian who were standing behind her at some point.

"emperor……"

She yelled softly, and then said nothing more.

The rising sun gilded Empress Fucha's body with gold, her death-reflecting pupils were filled with pity, her cold face was as bright as the moon, and a contented smile was faintly visible at the corner of her mouth.

Like... gods and Buddhas...

The sun had risen to a high place, shining compassionately on the cold body, and there was no sound on the deck.

Everyone was crying silently, but no one made a sound.

The queen has found her own peace, and at the last moment of her life, she obtained eternal peace as Fucha Rongyin.

until--

After a long time, Qianlong sighed: "Queen, you are finally free, but I don't know how to explain it to him."

He is their child, the seventh elder brother Yong Cong.

The author has something to say:

In addition, because of the queen's affairs, Qianlong completely forgot about Xia Yuhe, and didn't even read the letterhead she left behind.By the time he thought of this woman again, it was already 18 years later...
