Outside Yuqian Palace, people were kneeling. On the soft platform in the middle, the white-haired Xuanyuan Ce lay there with a pale face.
A red line of blood on his neck was especially eye-catching.
“Father…” Xuanyuan Ye’s pupils constricted and she staggered forward.
She was really sad. No matter what happened to Xuanyuan Ce, she could not lie to her father.
Now that he was dead, no matter how great the resentment in Xuanyuan Ye’s heart was, it was gone.
Madam Yu’s vision darkened and she almost fainted. She only stopped herself from losing her composure with the help of the nanny beside her.
Xuanyuan Qi stopped in his tracks and looked straight at the person lying there. He did not hear the word “Brother”.
The news of Xuanyuan Ce’s accident spread when the palace door first opened. At that time, Xuanyuan Qi had just woken up and was about to attend the morning court assembly.
When he suddenly heard that he had been sitting there in a daze for nearly ten minutes, his first reaction was that Xuanyuan Ce was joking with him.
Until Madam Yu and her daughter, who had also received the news, entered the palace crying. He had no choice but to believe it.
It being believable was one thing. When people encountered something they didn’t want to face, they always liked to take a chance.
Even when he got someone to draw a portrait of the suspect and get someone to arrest him, he still felt that it wasn’t real.
At this moment, all his doubts disappeared.
Xuanyuan Qi’s face suddenly turned pale.
The eunuch supported him worriedly, his face filled with grief. “Your Majesty,
His Highness, His Highness…”
He said it twice, but he did not dare to say the word “dead”.
Xuanyuan Qi waved his hand. Immediately, two eunuchs went over and pulled away Xuanyuan Ye, who was crying her heart out.
“Let go!”
He pushed away the eunuch’s hand and slowly stepped forward. He took a deep breath and placed his trembling hand on the tip of Xuanyuan Ce’s nose.
In the next moment, his breathing stopped. He suddenly retracted his hand
and staggered two steps back. In the blink ot an eye, he grabbed Xuanyuan Ce’s collar with red eyes.
The eunuch knelt down and took two steps forward to hug Xuanyuan Qi’s legs. He cried, “Your Majesty, you have to take care of your body.”
As he cried, the palace maids around him also cried.
The air seemed to become oppressive.
Xuanyuan Qi closed his eyes deeply and finally let go.
At this moment, a figure rushed over and almost knocked Xuanyuan Qi down.
She was too fast and sudden. Everyone stopped crying and stood rooted to the ground.
Shen Yijia panicked and tried to pry Xuanyuan Ce’s mouth open. Her hand touched a cold spot, and she shivered.
It was not easy for her to drip a drop of spiritual liquid into his mouth. She was about to do so when someone grabbed her hand.
“Hubby…” She turned around in confusion.
Song Jingchen shook his head. “It’s useless.”
“How dare you! Capture her quickly!” Xuanyuan Qi was the first to react.
The imperial guards immediately surrounded him.
In this situation, the two of them could not resist at all.
Shen Yijia panicked for no reason and grabbed Xuanyuan Ce’s hand tightly. “Let me try again. What if it works?”
Song Jingchen pulled her into his arms, his tone filled with pity. “Jiajia, you know that he’s already dead!”
“He’s dead…” Shen Yijia felt a lump in her throat. She let go of Xuanyuan Ce bit by bit.
The spiritual liquid could not revive the dead!
She could not save a dead person!
As she got dragged away, the jade ring on Xuanyuan Ce’s hand slipped off and rolled to Xuanyuan Qi’s feet.
“Lock them up in the side hall first,” he instructed in a low voice. He squatted down and picked up the jade ring.
Xuanyuan Ye was restrained by the eunuch and struggled. “Uncle, she killed my father. I have to make her pay with her life!”
Xuanyuan Qi paused for a moment and his fingers could not help but tighten slightly. He looked at the jade ring that he had just helped Xuanyuan Ce bring in with bloodshot eyes and said coldly, “I’ll investigate. If Second Brother was really harmed by her, I won’t let her off.”
The imperial guards were about to take her away when the empress dowager arrived, making everyone kneel down again..
