Hongyuan Emperor was startled. "So, you infiltrated the enemy?"
Chu Xuanchen nodded. "Yes, in order to prevent people from recognizing me, I also wore a mask. I pretended to give them a chance to fight, obtained their military secrets, drew their military maps, spied on their military restricted areas, and so on. Later, I will present the information I obtained to Your Majesty. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we defeat Tiansheng Country in the future. "
Hongyuan Emperor was very happy to hear this. "Good, you can remain calm in the face of danger and obtain the enemy's secrets. Not bad. What about Ruoyue? How did she find you? "
"Your Majesty, in order to find Xuanchen, I changed my name and disguised myself as a man. I pretended to be a doctor to find him. However, I couldn't find him in Yong City. Later, I found that I couldn't find him in the Yaoshan Barracks, so I sneaked into the barracks as a doctor to find him. The heavens didn't disappoint those who worked hard. I really met Xuanchen in the barracks. However, our identities were all seen through by Feng Lingtian. He wanted to kill us, so we had to flee. Fortunately, we were protected by Your Majesty, so we could safely return to our country. "Yun Ruoyue said.
She and Chu Xuanchen had already discussed to say this.
Anyway, Hongyuan Emperor would know about this sooner or later. They might as well tell him first, so as to prevent people from slandering them in the future.
In particular, Chu Xuanchen had fought for Tiansheng Country. In order to prevent people from accusing him of treason, they came up with the idea of seizing the enemy country's secrets.
In this way, if people questioned them in the future, no one could blame them.
After hearing this, Hongyuan Emperor said, "Well, since Xuanchen has returned safely, this matter will temporarily come to an end. Alas, the most important thing now is to deal with the Empress Dowager's funeral. You can leave first! "
"Yes, Your Majesty." The two said.
After temporarily passing Hongyuan Emperor's test, the two breathed a sigh of relief.
-
The Empress Dowager died, and the whole city was in mourning.
Soon, the whole palace was hung with white cloth and lit with white candles. The smell of death was everywhere, sad and heavy.
After the mourning hall was set up, bursts of mournful music sounded, causing people to cry. Yun Ruoyue and Princess Royal knelt in front of the charcoal brazier, crying while burning paper money for the Empress Dowager.
The princes and princes changed into white mourning clothes and knelt in front of the mourning hall to keep vigil for the Empress Dowager.
Chu Xuanchen knelt at the very front. His back was straight, and his gaze was sorrowful as he looked at the memorial tablet above him. He didn't say a word.
At this time, Princess Royal walked over and whispered to him, "Xuan Chen, you haven't eaten for a day. Do you want to eat something first?"
Chu Xuanchen shook his head uncomfortably. "I don't want to eat. Imperial Sister, take the Yue'er to eat!"
His Imperial Grandmother, who loved him the most, had passed away. His heart was very sad, as if it was stuffed with a ball of cotton, and he couldn't eat anything.
Seeing him like this, Princess Royal advised, "If you don't eat, your body won't be able to take it. You should eat more or less, right? Otherwise, Imperial Grandmother will be sad when she sees it. "
Chu Xuanchen's eyes were red, and he was overwhelmed with grief. "No need. Imperial Sister, you must be tired. You go rest first. Don't worry about me."
"Okay, then I'll take the Yue'er to rest first." Princess Royal said.
At night, a full moon hung in the sky, shining brightly on the earth.
Many princes couldn't take it anymore. After changing people, they went to rest first. Only Chu Xuanchen still knelt there firmly, looking at the memorial tablet above him with sadness.
