Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 394: Shadow of Meizhuang (End)
Shi Qing and Wen Shichu eventually lived in seclusion in Jiangnan, ignoring worldly affairs. This was a secret affair.
Zhen Huan concealed this matter, and no concubines in the harem knew about it, let alone got involved in it.
Wen Shichu gave all his property to Shi Qing, including the family heirloom jade pot.
The two stayed together for their entire lives and were very much in love, but they never had any children.
Wen Shichu never married and stayed with Shi Qing all his life.
Of course, there were also concubines who wanted to find something to hold against Zhen Huan and take action against Shi Qing, but before they could succeed, they were openly suppressed by Zhen Huan.
In the end, Zhen Huan found something against that person and reduced his salary by half, and at the same time took back all the benefits given to the concubine.
Such an action frightened everyone in the harem, and they dared not act like evil anymore. The concubines, whether they had children or not, all lived their lives in an obedient manner.
After all, the current emperor attaches great importance to filial piety. Although he and Zhen Huan are not biological mother and son, they have a mother-son relationship after all. Hongli will ask Zhen Huan for her opinion on all matters big or small in the court.
Anyone who dared to disrespect Zhen Huan in the court or the country would be kicked out of the capital and exiled to a remote place.
For the sake of their own future, the civil and military officials naturally would not do anything stupid to offend Zhen Huan. They all put aside their evil thoughts and were finally able to stay in the capital.
Decades passed in the blink of an eye. When Shi Qing was forty years old, his chronic illness recurred. Wen Shichu used all his medical skills but ultimately failed to save Shi Qing.
Shi Qing lay on the bed, barely breathing. Her hair had only turned white during the years she had spent in the harem, but her appearance was even more beautiful than when she was young.
Zhen Huan was wearing a plain dress. She sat next to Shi Qing, tears glistening in her eyes.
"Sister Mei, you can't break your promise. You said you would always be by my side. You and I will always be as close as sisters."
Zhen Huan did not call herself "Aijia". She and Shen Meizhuang have always been sisters, so there is no need to be so formal.
Shi Qing stroked Zhen Huan's eyes, wiped away her falling tears, and said softly.
"Huan'er, I can only accompany you for a while. You have to walk the rest of the way on your own."
Shen Meizhuang's wish was for Zhen Huan to have a smooth life, and now Huan'er's regrets are gone.
"Sister Mei, you said you would go with me to search for handsome men all over the world, and now you can't leave me alone."
Shi Qing gave the gold locket hidden in his lapel to Zhen Huan, "Huan'er, Sheng'er hasn't married yet. You must personally watch over him in the future. This is a meeting gift for my future daughter-in-law. Leave it to Sheng'er for me."
The gold locket was very heavy and valuable. Shi Qing also left a few boxes of hair ornaments for Zhen Huan, which were all collected by her over the years.
"Okay, I promise you."
Zhen Huan suppressed her sadness. She knew that she was lucky enough in this life. If Shen Meiyu had not changed her fate, her life might have been more regrettable.
People are always greedy. The only person she wants to keep is Mei Zhuang, but she also knows that this request is even more difficult.
Wen Shichu was already a famous doctor in the Imperial Hospital, but he still couldn't cure Mei Zhuang's old illness. He must have tried his best.
"Don't cry, Huan'er. I love seeing you smile the most. You are the most honorable Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty. Don't be sad for me."
Zhen Huan originally had a bright face and looked particularly beautiful when she smiled, but at this moment, the smile on Zhen Huan's face was uglier than crying.
She walked behind the screen and spent time with Wen Shichu. Wen Shichu's steadfastness over the years made Zhen Huan deeply aware that he was truly sincere to Sister Mei.
Why not make it happen?
Unfortunately, Sister Mei’s life has begun to count down.
Shi Qing only felt that the surroundings were quiet, and the aroma of medicine made him feel particularly at ease. She did not block out the pain and waited soberly for death to come.
"Mei'er, my medical skills are not good enough and I couldn't keep you. It's my inability. What is your wish? I will help you realize it, okay?"
He held Shi Qing's hand extra tightly, but his emotions remained stable and he looked very gentle.
"After I leave, plant the secluded courtyard with crabapple blossoms. When the wind blows, it means I'm coming to see you."
"Wen Shichu, you are not young anymore. After I leave, find a good marriage and forget me."
The corners of Wen Shichu's eyes turned red, and he spoke to Shi Qing without controlling his emotions.
"Mei'er, you are my only wife, Wen Shichu. I only regret that we met too late and our love was too fleeting."
After saying that, he held Shi Qing in his arms. The hot temperature of his body could not warm Shi Qing's cold body.
"Take care of yourself……"
Shi Qing left her last words, her breath gradually weakened, the light in her pupils faded, and her hands slowly dropped.
The young eunuch guarding outside the palace rang the funeral bell and passed on the news.
"Concubine Shen is dead."
Zhen Huan was unsteady and stumbled. Jin Xi supported her and comforted her.
"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."
Zhen Huan returned to Zhudian like a lost soul and arranged everything. After Shen Meiyu's business was done, she fell seriously ill and stayed in the palace for a long time, ignoring worldly affairs.
Occasionally I would go to the emperor's and his concubines' bedrooms to see the once glorious Cunju Hall, but now no one was there.
She eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures all day long, and doesn't care about worldly affairs.

[Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for completing the full-star mission and helping Zhen Huan achieve her wish.

Shi Qing returned to the system space, and the sadness she had just felt from being separated from the small world gradually dissipated. She blocked all her senses and returned to her usual calm and composed self.
"Tuanzi, if I remember correctly, we agreed that there would be new rewards after the mission is over."
Tuanzi answered while humming excitedly.
[Congratulations to the host for winning the title of Rose Crown Queen. The God-Becoming Plan is now underway. Please be patient and wait for 24 hours. Tuanzi will ensure the completion of the mission!]
