Chapter 956: Will
“Emperor, you’re back. Did you obtain that thousand year snow…..”
Ye Ting Xuan was standing there when a flash appeared in front of his eyes. There was a red figure that floated down from the roof and looking at it, it was Mo Chuan.
He saw Mo Chuan’s expression and knew the result, instantly swallowing his unfinished sentence down.
Mo Chuan’s face was dark and his eyes were a deep pool, black to the point of containing no emotions.
But the more it was like this, the more worried Ye Ting Xuan was.
“Ting Xuan, come in.”
Mo Chuan walked into the palace and spoke in a deep voice.
Ye Ting Xuan’s body turned cold. He was a minister and he couldn’t enter the imperial harem without the emperor’s orders, so he had been guarding the entrance of the palace the entire time.
When the emperor called him in, his heart filled with a bad feeling.
“Ting Xuan, help this one write a decree.”
Mo Chuan sat in front of the bed, but he didn’t look up at Ye Ting Xuan, looking deeply at Chen Ning the entire time. The black colour on her face became darker, but there was no expressions on her face, only calmness.
“Decree?” Ye Ting Xuan was a bit stunned, “What decree?”
“A will.” Mo Chuan softly said.
Ye Ting Xuan and doctor Zhang were both stunned.
Doctor Zhang almost fell out of his chair as he suspected something was wrong with his ears.
“Emperor!” Ye Ting Xuan had heard clearly and he kneeled down the floor. His nose became stuffy as his eyes filled with tears.
“You mustn’t! You mustn’t!”
Doctor Zhang also kneeled down while trembling, “Emperor, you can’t have this kind of idea, it’s all because of this old minister’s low medical skills. This old ministers will immediately consult the medical books and will find a way to save the empress’ life.”
He bowed to Mo Chuan before standing up and leaving the palace with trembling feet.
Mo Chuan held Chen Ning’s hand. Her hands were stiff and ice cold, but he wasn’t willing to let go.
He could still hear Chu Shao Yang’s words of resentment in his ears.
“Chu Mo Chuan, you’re too greedy! You stole my throne and you stole my beloved woman. This is god’s punishment for you, this is your retribution!”
These words were like a blade deeply piercing his heart, filling him with pain.
He looked at her face without a trace of blood. She was silent like she was sleeping, but it was likely she could not awaken from this sleep.
If this was really god’s punishment for him, why didn’t it fall onto his body? Why did he have to take her away?
He was willing to use his life to exchange for hers!
His chest filled with pain as he suddenly opened his mouth and he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the golden floors. It was like a flower of blood blooming.
“Emperor!” Ye Ting Xuan called out in shock. He knew that this mouthful of blood was from Mo Chuan being too agitated. He was filled with hurt and despair, but he suppressed it and revealed nothing.
Mo Chuan slowly raised his head and looked at the sky outside, as he slowly spoke.
“Ting Xuan, do you think this one is greedy? Is it because this one wanted too much that the heavens decided to give this one this kind of punishment, stealing this one’s beloved girl away? Tell me, is it like this?”
“Emperor……” Ye Ting Xuan was shocked and shook his head, “How can you saw this. You and her have already experienced many hardships and finally became married, this is the blessing of the heavens. But the empress was poisoned because of someone’s ill intents. Ting Xuan believes that the empress is blessed by the heaves, she will be fine. Ting Xuan also believes that the emperor’s people will be able to find the thousand year old herbs. Although this kind of thing is rare, it still exists in the world. Emperor, you must believe.”
