Chapter 245: The Heroine Whose Luck Was Taken Away

The maidservant who reported back said that the eldest princess secretly got up in the middle of the night and jumped into the lake to commit suicide. When they found her, it was too late. The eldest princess had already drowned in the lake.

It’s just strange that there is always a strange smile on the eldest princess’ face, as if some wish has been fulfilled.

……

When Jiang Yuan committed suicide by jumping into the lake, she was actually conscious. She came to the lake alone, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and thought of the handsome young man.

When others saw Chen Shuhuan, they usually remembered him as a young general wearing armor and looking majestic. However, Jiang Yuan was the only one who had seen Chen Shuhuan wearing a simple white robe and playing the flute in the moonlight.

The moonlight was like silver, shrouding him and giving him a layer of hazy light, which made him look particularly beautiful.

The man on the road is as beautiful as jade, and he is unparalleled in the world.

He is like the bright moon in the sky, without a trace of impurities, and he disdains to curry favor with the powerful.

Jiang Yuan even thought that if Chen Shuhuan could see the value in her, it would actually be a good idea for her to please him.

But on second thought, if Chen Shuhuan became like this, she probably wouldn't like him as much as she does now.

The little princess, who had always lived a life of luxury and smooth sailing, tasted the bitterness of failure and setbacks at the hands of Chen Shuhuan.

She found that no matter how she expressed her affection for Chen Shuhuan, he remained indifferent. He ordered all the gifts she gave him to be returned, saying that the princess was precious and she really didn't dare to marry up.

I sent him an invitation, but he either had to go to the parade ground for training today or had a meeting tomorrow, so he really couldn't make it.

Faced with his attitude, she guessed a little bit, and estimated that Chen Shuhuan either had a lover or simply didn't like women.

Rather than Chen Shuhuan having a lover, the princess hoped that Chen Shuhuan did not like women, or that he would be like her perverted uncle, devoted to Buddhism and not interested in the world.

Unfortunately, your servant Shu Huan has a lover.

His sweetheart is very beautiful. It is not an exaggeration to describe her face as a beauty of heaven. She is also very smart.

Many times, she deliberately made things difficult for Ye Ruoxing, but she always avoided him.

……

Seeing the relationship between the two becoming more and more passionate, she could no longer sit still, so when unrest broke out at the border again, she recommended to her father that Minister Shu Huan be sent over.

She naively thought that as long as Chen Shuhuan went there, he and Ye Ruoxing would have fewer opportunities to meet. Over time, after Ye Ruoxing entered the palace, he would give up.

Who knew that instead of waiting for Ye Ruoxing to enter the palace, she received the news that Chen Shuhuan had died on the battlefield. In an instant, her mind went blank. You know, Chen Shuhuan went to the battlefield this time entirely because of her recommendation.

She regretted, she blamed herself... Gradually, she went crazy.

She always believed that she was the one who killed the man she loved most, and the strong sense of self-blame almost drove her crazy.

Finally, under such pressure, she lost her mind and remembered nothing except the man in white standing in the moonlight and playing the flute.

The wind was cool that night, blowing open her window and letting the soft moonlight fill her quilt. She got up and ran out barefoot, finally coming to a pool of water and seeing the moon reflected in the water.

The moon was so big, so round, and so bright. A handsome face seemed to appear on the moon. She couldn't help but open her arms, wanting to hug the bright moon.

……

When the news of the eldest princess' death arrived, the empress was busy dealing with the affairs of the harem, and was overwhelmed. At this moment, Concubine Ye arrived. She rushed in with great momentum and asked the empress directly, "Greetings, Your Majesty. I have come here today to ask for Your Majesty's grace to serve the emperor."

The queen was annoyed when she saw this face. After all, this vixen had been restless since she entered the palace. One moment she danced under the moon to attract the emperor, and the next moment she recited poems. Her bet was right, and the emperor really fell for it. So she quickly became a noble lady.

However, before she could rise to prominence, the emperor fell ill. During his illness of several months, all affairs were left to the empress to handle. As a result, Concubine Ye, who was originally in the limelight, was naturally alienated.

"The emperor's condition is currently unclear. It's good that Concubine Ye wants to attend to him, but now is not a good time. You should return to your own palace and pray for the emperor in peace."

As she spoke, the Queen signaled, and the young eunuch immediately stepped forward and dragged Ye Furong away.

……

one year later

When the emperor passed away, his son was too young, so the throne was inherited by his uncle Jiang Wuchen.

On the day Jiang Wuchen ascended the throne, he sent people to bring Ye Ruoxing and her son into the palace. Ye Ruoxing came to the palace in a gorgeous carriage, holding her son.

The Queen Dowager had been waiting for her. Knowing that Jiang Wuchen had married and had a child outside the palace, the Queen Dowager was so excited that she couldn't sleep these days.

From a distance, she saw Ye Ruoxing, with surprise and joy in her eyes. She didn't expect that her son would marry her.

Ye Ruoxing saluted the Dowager Concubine, she knelt slightly and said, "Your daughter-in-law greets the Dowager Concubine. May you live a long and healthy life."

The Concubine smiled and reached out to help her up, then looked at the child in her arms and happily reached out to hold him, "Let me hold him."

After taking the child, the Concubine Dowager was overjoyed at the delicate and delicate child and kept teasing the baby in her arms.

She originally thought that she would never be able to fulfill her aspiration of having grandchildren in her lifetime, but she did not expect that she could hold her own grandson in her arms during her lifetime. The Concubine Dowager felt that it was worth it even if she died at this moment.

……

After Jiang Wuchen ascended the throne, he released all of the previous emperor's concubines from the palace, and if they had children, they would be kept in the palace to be raised.

Ye Furong had no children, so she was among those who were expelled from the palace. The sun was shining brightly on the day she left the palace.

She followed the eunuch out of the palace, and when she looked up, she saw Ye Ruoxing not far away. At that time, she was holding a lovely child in her arms and admiring the newly blooming flowers in the imperial garden.

Beside her were the palace maids and eunuchs who served her carefully.

Ye Furong's chest was heaving violently, and her face looked extremely pale. In the end, she had taken back her luck bit by bit.

At the same time, the system's voice sounded in Ye Ruoxing's mind.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained 100% luck and completed the side quest.]

Ye Ruoxing sighed and continued to tease the child in her arms.

……

Years later, Ye Ruoxing was very old. She died in Jiang Wuchen's arms. In front of them were their three sons and one daughter. She looked at the sobbing father and sons and said comfortingly, "Don't cry. This happens to everyone. I'll go over there and wait for you."

After Ye Ruoxing's death, Jiang Wuchen buried her in the imperial mausoleum with a state funeral, and ordered that he would be buried with Ye Ruoxing after his death.

……
