When Yuwen Rui saw Gu Shengyin block the attack, he jumped up from his seat.
He used all his strength to run to the Emperor's side.
But by the time he reached her side, she had already stopped breathing.
Yuwen Rui's hands couldn't help but tremble.
When the Emperor saw his expression, he thought he was too sad because of his junior sister's death.
Of course, the spring hunt was stopped. Li Jie Yu's body was brought back to the palace and the Emperor ordered a grand funeral.
But that night, Li Jie Yu's palace caught fire and everything was burned to ashes. Not even a complete corpse was left behind.
The Emperor could only sigh.
Yuwen Rui personally carried You Lan's corpse and placed it in his room.
The servants in his room were all deaf and mute. He wasn't afraid they would leak the secret.
"You Lan … You must hate me, right?"
"You should hate me, but if you hate me, you should take revenge. Why, why did you say those things?" What brother and sister? Even in death, she was still thinking about him.
Yuwen Rui spoke and coughed violently. Bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but he didn't want to wipe it away.
He touched her face with trembling hands. She was still beautiful, but cold and stiff to the touch. It was the smell of death.
"I'm a bastard … I won't die a good death … It's me who caused you to be in this state …"
His Highness Xian Wang became thinner and thinner day by day. His temperament became more and more gloomy. Even when the Emperor gave him the title of Crown Prince at the court meeting, there was no smile on his face.
This made many court officials secretly praise the Xian Wang, no, the Crown Prince's temperament was extraordinary.
Yuwen Rui was at a loss.
Becoming the Crown Prince and finally ascending to the supreme throne, trampling everyone under his feet, was his life's greatest goal.
But now, almost all of it had been achieved. Why didn't he feel happy at all?
Perhaps, it was because his heart had already turned cold following that person's departure?
Returning to the palace in a daze, Yuwen Rui turned a blind eye to all the congratulations and closed himself in his room.
But the figure that should have been lying on the bed was gone.
Gone?
A trace of panic flashed through his heart. How could it disappear?
He looked carefully and finally saw a withered camellia flower on the bed.
An idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
That's right, she wasn't human at all. How could she be judged by human standards?
Yuwen Rui let out a low chuckle. In the end, that chuckle gradually turned into laughter. In the end, he laughed until he couldn't stop coughing.
Even so, he did not stop laughing.
His eyes lit up, and a glimmer of hope suddenly spread out in the deathly stillness.
"You lied to me, you lied to everyone … But thank you for lying to me this time."
She wasn't dead. She was still alive.
There was nothing more delightful than this.
Even if she hated him and didn't want to see him again, it didn't matter.
The people in the Prince's Mansion realized that their master's mood had inexplicably improved.
The Emperor's body could not take it anymore. His body had been hollowed out by wine and women all these years. After a serious illness, his entire body collapsed.
Crown Prince Yuwen Rui quickly took control of the court.
