The Love between Hanxiang and Qianlong

Qianlong's body couldn't help but sway slightly, as if the ground beneath his feet had lost its balance, making it almost impossible for him to stand firmly.

At this critical moment, the loyal Xiao Luzi was quick to step forward, stretched out his hands and held Qianlong tightly, using his strong arms to support and depend on the emperor.

When the extremely heavy stone door finally closed completely, there was a deafening noise, as if the whole world was shaking.

At the same time, Qianlong's heart, which was originally as strong as iron, seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and flew with Hanxiang to the depths of the distant and mysterious mausoleum.

After returning to the palace, Emperor Qianlong fell ill. This sudden illness came with great force, attacking his body violently like a violent storm.

He lay in bed all day, his face as pale as snow, his eyes dull, and his former spirited look had long since disappeared without a trace.

Ministers from the court came to visit one after another, but faced with the emperor's serious illness, they could only do nothing and silently pray to God to bless the emperor to recover soon.

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Under the careful care of the imperial doctors, Qianlong's condition finally began to improve.

He was slowly able to sit up, eat some light food, and his face gradually regained color.

However, although his body is gradually recovering, the pain in his heart is still difficult to heal.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would always think of the beautiful, gentle and kind Hanxiang, and tears would flow down his cheeks involuntarily.

When the old lady learned that her son was ill, she was extremely worried and immediately rushed to the palace to visit him.

When she saw that the once heroic and high-spirited emperor had now become so haggard, her heart was broken and her eyes were filled with pity.

She gently stroked Qianlong's forehead and whispered comfortingly.

"Emperor, please don't be too sad.

The dead are gone, but the living must move on. Please take care of yourself and don't make me worry anymore."

After listening to what the Empress Dowager said, Qianlong nodded slightly, indicating that he understood her painstaking efforts.

But deep in his heart, his longing for Hanxiang became stronger and stronger, and he could not let it go for a long time.

In addition to attending court every day, Emperor Mu now has to deal with a large number of memorials in the Qianqing Palace.

He carefully read and annotated every memorial, demonstrating a high sense of responsibility and leadership.

He has gradually become a qualified crown prince and won the respect and trust of his ministers.

Cai Xi seemed to have grown up overnight. She was no longer as lively and cheerful as before, but became quiet and reserved.

Her words and actions revealed a mature temperament, which reminded people of the former Hanxiang.

When Qianlong looked at Caixi, he often thought of Hanxiang involuntarily.

Although they have many similarities, Qianlong knows in his heart that Cai Xi can never replace Hanxiang's place in his heart.

Cai Xi felt very sad when she saw Qianlong being depressed all day long.

She knew how much her father loved her mother, and she also understood the pain of losing her mother, because she and her brother missed her mother as much as her father did.

So she mustered up the courage to persuade Qianlong: "Father, you can't keep being depressed like this.

You are the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, shouldering the responsibility and mission of the entire country. We all need you, you must cheer up! "

After listening to Cai Xi's words, Qianlong sighed deeply. How could he not understand this truth? However, how easy is it to get out of grief?

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, several years had passed.

Rui Ze and Jing Tao have both grown up. They are smart and talented.

Especially Jingluo, her beauty and gentleness are heart-warming.

The scene at Jingluo's coming-of-age ceremony was very grand. Qianlong looked at his daughter with tears in his eyes.

If Hanxiang were here, she would definitely feel extremely relieved.

Since Hanxiang left, everyone has been careful to avoid mentioning her name in front of Qianlong, for fear of touching the pain deep in his heart.

Hanxiang's name gradually became a taboo, and no one dared to mention it easily.

At the same time, Karl Lagerfeld's health was getting worse.

Not long after the coming-of-age ceremony in Ruize, Karl Lagerfeld passed away.

When Qianlong learned the news, he felt heavy-hearted and extremely sad.

Before leaving, Hanxiang's figure seemed to appear in front of her eyes, and she murmured to herself, "Sweetheart", and then closed her eyes forever.

This scene made everyone feel extremely sad and heartbroken.

Rui Ze and Jing Tao cried like tearful people, they could not accept this cruel reality.

When Qing'er learned the news, her health suddenly collapsed and she fell seriously ill.

Fu Zheng was very frightened and stayed by her bedside the whole time. It was not until a long time later that Qing'er's condition gradually improved.

Chenxi would come to visit Qing'er every day after finishing his homework. He said with a worried look on his face: "Mother, you must get better soon, otherwise what will happen to me and my father?"

Qing'er gently touched Chenxi's head and comforted her, "Mother is fine, you don't have to worry about her."

When Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei heard that Qing'er was sick, they came to visit her.

They said to Qing'er.

"Qing'er, we know that the departure of the old Buddha is a heavy blow to you, but you must not fall down. You must spend the rest of your life with me and Xiaoyanzi, understand?"

Qing'er nodded, indicating that she would face life with strength.

Ziwei was relieved to see that she agreed, but she was afraid that Qing'er would be devastated by this.

Qing'er knew what she was thinking and held her hand to comfort her.

Then she looked at the white hair on Xiaoyanzi's temples and couldn't help but sigh.

"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, we all have gray hair and the children have grown up."

Ziwei agreed when she heard this.

"Yes, it has been thirteen years since Hanxiang passed away, and the emperor no longer has the spirit and energy he once had. If Hanxiang were still alive, he would definitely not be like this."

Xiaoyanzi patted her shoulder and silently comforted her. She knew that she had been feeling guilty all these years, but she had to go on with her life, and only in this way could she be worthy of Hanxiang!

Ziwei knew what Xiaoyanzi meant, but how easy was it to let it go?

The Emperor has not let it go for so many years! He often sits in Baoyue Tower for a whole day, and sometimes he becomes absent-minded when he sees Ruize and Jingluo, which is very sad.

However, time flies, years pass by, and life always goes on.

Although their hearts are filled with guilt and nostalgia, they must face reality bravely and cherish everything in front of them.

Ziwei took a deep breath, trying to free herself from the sadness.

She knew that she could not continue to dwell on the pain of the past, but should look forward positively, for the sake of her children, her family, and herself.

Qing'er looked at the two of them with a smile, her eyes revealing determination and encouragement.

she said softly.

“We’ve all been through so much, but we’re still here and our friendship is still as solid as a rock.

I believe we will continue to do so in the future and nothing will change.”

Xiaoyanzi nodded, tears glistening in her eyes, but more of it was anticipation for the future.

She held Ziwei's hand tightly and said, "Okay, we will be good friends for life and never give up."

So the three women cheered up again and laughed together.

They decided to let go of the grief of the past and greet each day of the future with optimism and tenacity.

Although the pain in their hearts can never be erased, they have learned to find hope in sadness and stick to their beliefs in difficult situations.
