Chapter 463: Delivering the Last Words to Yuqing Palace
The people waiting outside the door heard the noise and realized something. The Fourth Prince, who was leading the group, changed his expression and without caring about anything else, he pushed the door open and walked in quickly.
When he saw Shi Rongyue lying silently on the bed, he felt as if his feet were nailed down and he could not move forward. Shi Rongyue was dead, she was dead!
The Fourth Prince looked stunned, and scenes of his acquaintance with Shi Rongyue emerged in his mind.
If he had truly and decisively rejected Shi Rongyue, would their relationship have ended differently? Would Shi Rongyue not have passed away at such a young age?
Or if he had been brave enough to take the responsibility, and the two of them had worked together to find a way to resolve the identity of the designated Crown Princess, would they have been like the Emperor and the Empress, loving each other and holding hands?
The Fourth Prince walked very slowly, step by step, as if he would never reach the bedside, and would not be able to see that Shi Rongyue was dead.
But no matter how slowly you walk, you will eventually reach your destination. Looking at the face getting closer and closer, the Fourth Prince's lips trembled, and he called out very softly:
"Shi Rongyue?"
The person on the bed was silent and did not give any response. The Fourth Prince was suddenly overwhelmed by a huge sadness. He knelt on one knee beside the bed, gently held Shi Rongyue's cold hand, and murmured:
"Empress Dowager, did Shi Rongyue leave any message?"
Shi Nanxi looked at this scene with a dull look in her eyes.
"No, she only said that she cheated you badly when she married you, but you also treated her coldly and violently after marriage, and failed to protect Hongan. Now she wants to go with Hongan, and you two don't owe each other anything."
Hearing this, the Fourth Prince's hand holding Shi Rongyue trembled, and he repeated softly, "We owe each other nothing, we owe each other nothing!"
The Fourth Lady came in and saw the Fourth Prince's distraught look, and clenched her hands, "Shi Rongyue, why, why don't you forget to annoy me even after your death?"
It’s because of you that the Fourth Prince is so cold to me. You shouldn’t exist, bitch!
The Fourth Lady's expression twisted for a moment, but at this moment, her eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of what the Queen was holding. She ignored the glass bottle and her eyes fell directly on the box.
Her expression paused and her eyelids twitched. She was the official mistress of the Fourth Prince's mansion. She knew most of Shi Rongyue's businesses, not all of them. Therefore, she knew better than anyone how rich Shi Rongyue was.
Originally, she planned to wait for Shi Rongyue to die and leave half of the wealth. After all, this was not her dowry, but the proceeds from Shi Rongyue's business in the name of the Fourth Prince's Mansion after her marriage. Otherwise, she would not have been able to expand the business to such a large scale.
It was already very generous of her to leave only half, but she didn't expect that Shi Rongyue might hand over the wealth to the Queen before his death. The Fourth Lady couldn't help but clutch her handkerchief, feeling anxious.
Shi Nanxi was a perceptive person and she quickly noticed the Fourth Lady's hidden gaze on the box. She immediately looked over with sharp eyes.
Caught off guard, when their eyes met, the Fourth Lady's face froze and she quickly lowered her head.
Shi Nanxi saw through the Fourth Lady's thoughts at a glance, and she spoke calmly:
"Fourth Lady, are you wondering where this thing came from?"
This sentence attracted everyone's attention. The Fourth Prince also looked over, and the Fourth Lady hurriedly shook her head.
"Your Majesty, I misunderstood. I just glanced at you unintentionally. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Shi Nanxi raised her lips silently, without saying whether she believed it or not, she just said:
"No problem. I came here with nothing in my hands. Now that I have more things in my hands, it's natural for me to have doubts."
Then, ignoring the pale face of the Fourth Lady, he calmly explained:
"The things in my hand were given to me by Concubine before she died. The box was a gift from Concubine to Fifteen as an aunt, and the remaining glass bottles were given to me by Concubine. Do you still have any questions?"
The Fourth Lady moved her lips and wanted to say something but was interrupted by the Fourth Prince.
"That's Concubine's stuff. She can give it to whoever she wants."
After saying that, she looked at the Fourth Lady with cold eyes. The Fourth Lady's body froze. She pinched her palm tightly, restrained her expression, and echoed:
"Yes, they are all Concubine's things. She can give them to whoever she wants. The Empress Dowager is too polite."
Shi Nanxi hummed casually and stopped talking. She handed the box and the glass bottle to Hongying and Zixia. The room became quiet, with only low crying sounds remaining.
After all, Shi Nanxi was the queen, so it was not easy for her to stay outside for too long. She looked at Shi Rongyue quietly for a while, and wished her a safe journey in her heart, hoping that she would be reborn into a good life in the next life, and it would be best if she could return to the modern era, which would be more suitable for her.
She then prepared to return to the palace, but when her eyes swept over the Fourth Prince, she suddenly stopped.
Shi Rongyue herself is half responsible for her death, and the other half goes to Wu Da Ying. If it weren't for Wu Da Ying, Shi Rongyue wouldn't have died at such a young age. As Shi Rongyue's husband and Wu Da Ying's son, the Fourth Prince is the real point of conflict between the two.
So how could he be so immune to it? Shi Nanxi suddenly turned away, and before anyone else could react, she leaned over to the Fourth Prince's ear and said something, then walked away without even looking at his reaction.
When the others reacted, they quickly knelt down and said:
"…Farewell, Madam Queen."
At this time, the Fourth Prince had no reaction at all. The Queen's words kept echoing in his mind, that Shi Rongyue was most likely killed by his mother Wu Da Ying, and not from a cold.
The whole person felt like falling into an ice cave!
……
Shi Nanxi went out and saw a middle-aged imperial physician in official uniform. She narrowed her eyes and winked at Xiao Ruzi, who immediately nodded in understanding.
Then she did not stop and went straight out of the Fourth Prince's mansion. After she got on the phoenix chariot, she turned around and quietly glanced at the mansion with white sails and white lanterns hung up. She let down the curtains, and the phoenix chariot started, heading towards the palace in a mighty manner.
Xiao Ruzi, who was left behind, waited for Doctor Wen to leave the Fourth Prince's residence. Suddenly, he stepped forward to block his way and said with a smile:
"Doctor Wen, excuse me, the Queen wants to see you. Please come with us!"
Doctor Wen, who was carrying a medicine box, turned pale instantly.
On the other side, Shi Nanxi entered the palace in her carriage. When passing a fork in the road, Shi Nanxi suddenly opened her eyes and stopped.
The phoenix carriage stopped immediately, and Hongying Zixia looked at the empress in silent inquiry.
Shi Nanxi supported her forehead with her hand, looking indifferent.
"Zixia."
"I'm here." Zixia said immediately.
Heather Brook looked at her.
"You have only been serving me for a short time, so I am not familiar with you. You should personally deliver the glass bottle to Yuqing Palace without being seen by others. Remember that."
She specifically reminded Zixia.
"It cannot be handed over by anyone else. It must be delivered to the Crown Prince personally, and then conveyed to him that Shi Rongyue is four years late in saying sorry."
Zixia nodded cautiously, picked up the glass bottle carefully and hid it in her wide sleeves, then got off the phoenix carriage, took two detours to avoid people, and headed towards Yuqing Palace.
