Dongchuan, inside the king's palace.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the second princess is dead, the second princess is dead!" A eunuch stumbled into the hall, repeating the words that came out of his mouth.

"What do you do in a panic, stand firm and speak clearly!" Du Jingming was sitting on top of the hall and reprimanded sharply.

"Your Majesty, news came from the Wan Dynasty, saying that the second princess had self-immolated in Huaqing Palace and had ...... It's already dead. The eunuch in charge trembled, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and he didn't dare to look up at Du Jingming at this time.

"What do you say! What happened to Ruosheng!? Du Jingming was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and asked sharply again.

The eunuch who reported was frightened, and trembling presented a letter.

The envelope reads: "Dongchuan Wang Qinqi"

Du Jingming opened the envelope with trembling hands, and after a while, Du Jingming raised his head and looked at the queen Yuruxin and the eldest princess Du Qianzhi who were walking slowly, and the letter in his hand was clenched tighter by him at this time.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Wan Dynasty sent someone to send news, but Ruosheng's news?" As soon as Yuru Xin stepped into the hall, she asked earnestly.

"Yes, father, I haven't heard from my sister for a long time, and I don't know if she's okay recently?" Du Qianzhi's face was slightly worried, and he said with concern.

Du Jingming walked down from the hall with a solemn expression, and the eunuchs on the side did not dare to breathe, carefully watching everything in front of him. Du Jingming approached the queen and handed the letter in his hand to the queen.

The queen took the letter, and before she finished reading it, she sat on the ground with her legs weak, and the letter paper fell to the ground, and the words "The queen passed away" came into the eyes of Du Qianzhi, who went to support her mother, and she picked up the letter, and the content of the letter made her unbelievable.

"Father, is the content of this letter the news from the Ten Thousand Dynasties? What does it mean to be unable to bear the pain of losing a child, burn the palace and burn yourself! How could my sister's good and dignified become like this? Du Qianzhi's hand holding the letter trembled uncontrollably.

"Your Majesty, our Ruosheng is gone, how helpless and sad she should be, so she will choose to be relieved in this way......" Yuru's heart was full of grief and grief.

"Ruosheng is my daughter, what kind of grievances my daughter has suffered, I must find out, he must give me an explanation!" Du Jingming looked at his wife and daughter's grief, and his heart was even more annoyed.

"Your Majesty, but the Wan Dynasty is the country of the lord after all, and we are born under Dongchuan, how can this arm be twisted over the thigh......" The eunuch in charge of Fang Cai reminded boldly.

"Then what you mean is that I Dongchuan can't do it, Ruosheng is my Dongchuan princess, the daughter of my Dongchuan King, how can she die so unclear, don't you deceive me Dongchuan too much!"

"Your Majesty, that's not what the slave meant......" The eunuch in charge didn't dare to say more, silently shut up and stepped aside.

"The order goes down, I will personally visit Wanchao and set off on the same day."

"Qianzhi, take care of your mother, and my father will take your sister home." Du Jingming asked.

"Father, don't worry, be careful." Du Qianzhi's tone was heavy, and he also admonished.

……

When Du Jingming set off, he had mixed feelings in his heart, he still remembered the appearance when he sent Ruosheng to marry three years ago, but he didn't expect that in just three years, a white-haired person sent a black-haired person.

Dongchuan is only a hundred miles away from the Wan Dynasty, the land is vast, it is a rare feng shui treasure land, although the Wan Dynasty is the country of the monarch, but has no right to exercise the rights of other countries, and Dongchuan and the Wan Dynasty for several years is just a tributary relationship, until Du Ruosheng and Yan Qinghan reconciled, only overturned this relationship, now think about it, I am afraid that peaceful coexistence is really difficult.

In the Chongzheng Palace, Yan Qinghan looked at the short handbook in his hand, and thought endlessly.

"Your Majesty, the king of Dongchuan has arrived, and he is waiting outside the palace at this moment." Qi Guang walked into the main hall at some point and opened his mouth to report.

Yan Qinghan came back to his senses, and then he should arrive: "Announce him to enter the hall." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Soon, Du Jingming's figure appeared in the palace, his face was stern, and he opened his mouth first: "See the emperor, I received the emperor's letter and hurried over, the letter said forgive me Dongchuan royal family can not accept, Ruosheng and relatives have only been here for three years, but now it is a white-haired person to send a black-haired person, and I hope the emperor will give me an explanation for Dongchuan!" ”

"Bold, how dare you be so disrespectful to the emperor!" Qi Guang said sharply.

"Qi Guang, you can step back first." Yan Qing's cold face did not change and retreated from Qi Guang, got up and walked to the audience.

"Yes, the minister retired." Qi Guang didn't know but didn't ask any more, and walked out of the hall quickly.

After Qi Guang left, only Du Jingming and Yan Qinghan were left in the hall, Yan Qinghan walked in front of Du Jingming, bent down deeply, and slowly spoke: "I'm sorry." ”

Du Jingming was shocked by his sudden movements, he never expected Yan Qinghan to make such a move, and paused before continuing to speak: "What does the emperor mean by this?" ”

"Ruosheng's death is the fault of my Wan Dynasty, and it is also my fault, she married me, but I didn't take good care of her, you are her father, and you are also the ruler of Wan Dynasty, if you are angry in your heart, you should naturally crusade against me." Yan Qinghan straightened up, and he could be heard with remorse between his words.

Du Jingming's heart was originally annoyed, but in the face of Yan Qinghan's actions, he was also at a loss for a while, and his thousand words finally turned into one sentence: "From today on, my Dongchuan is no longer affiliated with the Wan Dynasty, and now I am here to take Ruosheng home, since she is not happy here, she will leave with me, and ask the emperor to agree." ”

Yan Qinghan hesitated and said: "If Sheng is married to me, it is reasonable to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, how can he be buried in the mother family, I am afraid it is inappropriate to do so." ”

"I hope the emperor will agree!" Du Jingming repeated again, his tone resolute.

Yan Qinghan knew that Du Jingming had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to agree, "When I arrived, Ruosheng was already completely skinned, and I would ask Qi Guang to hand over her ashes to you, and Dongchuan and Wan Chao would no longer have any relationship from now on." ”

"Emperor Xie!" Du Jingming saluted and turned away.

Before he walked out, Yan Qinghan's voice sounded again, "Guozhang, have you ever thought that Ruosheng might still be alive." ”

"The emperor has some things that you don't know how to cherish until you lose them, and please mourn." With that, he hurried out of the temple gate.

After getting the ashes, Du Jingming hugged the urn tightly, his heart ached, for this daughter, he has held her in the palm of his hand since he was a child, but now, he can really only hold it in the palm of his hand.

"Ruosheng, my father will take you home, and we will go back to Dongchuan!" Du Jingming stroked the box over and over again, his voice trembling.

Accompanying Du Jingming is also the major general Gu Feng, who grew up with the Du Ruosheng sisters since he was a child, he once said that he would always protect them, and now this is indeed the scene, at this moment, he can clearly hear the sound of the gurgling of his finger joints, he has hatred and regret.
