Chapter 1108: The Return of an Old Friend (16)

Shen Miao was also present. Looking at Empress Xiande crying, Shen Miao’s heart ached. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that Empress Xiande was deeply in love with Emperor Yong Le. Emperor Yong Le was not a heartless emperor. These two people loved each other in a reserved manner. Once one of them was dead, it would definitely be a fatal blow to the other.

“Sir.” Empress Xiande held back her sobs and said, “His Majesty… how much longer can he last?”

Gao Zhan glanced inside and sighed deeply. “At most a month.”

“How…” Shen Miao was surprised.

“Over the years, the poison has already invaded his organs. He’s strong-willed and was able to fight back the poison. I think His Majesty has suffered a lot of pain, but he’s already at the end of his rope.” Gao Zhan said, “I’ve been treating His Majesty since he was young. He is a person with a strong will and has been carrying too many responsibilities on his shoulders. Even now, he’s still hanging in there. Your Majesty, if you can, please advise His Majesty not to overwork himself. Sometimes, he has to be selfish.” He bowed solemnly to

Empress Xiande. “For the next few days, please take good care His Majesty.”

After Gao Zhan left, Shen Miao wanted to comfort Empress Xiande, but she did not know what to say.

When one was in pain, no matter how much others comforted, it was useless. People always thought that a few comforting words could resolve everything, but it was not that simple.

Empress Xiande forced a smile and said, “You can go back first. I… I need some time to myself.”

Shen Miao asked Empress Xiande to take good care of herself before leaving.

When she returned to her room, she couldn’t help but touch her stomach and open a sachet on the table.

The red beans still looked smooth and intact.

There were so many separations in this world. One moment, people were laughing, and the next, they would be separated by life and death. The heavens were too cruel. They refused to give people a good time in their lives. People could only rely on themselves.

She would do all she could to protect her lover and family.

Empress Xiande sat by the bed in a daze. Emperor Yong Le had already woken up at some point.

She lowered her head and was deep in thought. The side of her face was beautiful and gentle.

“Qing Zhen,” Emperor Yong Le called out.

Empress Xiande came back to her senses and looked at him. “Your Majesty, you’re awake. Do you feel unwell?”

“No.” Emperor Yong Le shook his head.

The two of them were silent for a while before Emperor Yong Le said, “Qing Zhen, I don’t have much time left.’

Empress Xiande looked at him and did not speak.

“I…” He paused for a moment before continuing,” I don’t think I can bury the wine with you this winter.”

“Although one jar is broken, there’s another one. If you don’t mind, let’s find a cool day to go to the royal garden to drink that wine together. The summer scenery in the garden is very good, and the lotus flowers are blooming very brightly this year…” Empress Xiande muttered as if she was talking to herself.

“Qing Zhen.” Emperor Yong Le interrupted her. “I can’t accompany you anymore.”

His face was pale, and he was still as handsome as before. However, he no longer had the domineering and cold aura of an emperor.

Empress Xiande turned her head away. Emperor Yong Le could not see her expression and could only hear her voice. She said, “Your Majesty, you’ve always been very heartless. You don’t even want to tell a white lie to make me happy..”
