144 After the Fall of the First Beauty (74)
She watched as he turned his head, smiled at her, and beckoned, as if to say "See you next world".
Then, he carried a sandbag and went to plug the gap.
When the next wave came, someone screamed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fallen into the water!" β
"Save the Prince......"
She couldn't help but stumble twice and ran to the shore, her hands still holding the clothes he had just taken off, still carrying his breath, his body temperature.
But after a few waves, his figure had long been swept into the rolling flood, and it wasn't long before he was no longer seen.
There was chaos at the side of the embankment. Whether it was the county order, the government officials, or the ordinary overseers, or the common people, they were all stunned...... Many people jumped into the water to search for the prince.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince died in front of them, and they can't afford this consequence!
Yun Xi wiped away his tears, stood up, looked at the stupid person, and presided over the order.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fell into the river and is dead! He was martyred! At such times, you are jumping down to save people, but you are just wasting your lives in vain! In the heart of His Highness, his life is not as important as the lives of the people, so don't sacrifice in vain, cheer up, and repair the embankment to comfort His Highness's soul in heaven! If there is anything, I will take it all in! β
The weak and pale woman seems to be blown down by a gust of wind.
Her husband died in front of her, how painful she should be.
But the first thing she thought of was the common people......
Such a good highness, such a good crown princess......
For those who were stupid, some people took the lead in crying: "Your Highness! β
"Your Highness! It's not worth it! β
"I'm willing to trade my life for the prince's life...... Woowoo woo ......"
"No...... The prince can't die......"
I cried, I vented, and the dam was finally built.
It has a scientific name, but the common people automatically and spontaneously call it "Prince Causeway".
There are also people who built a temple of the prince on the side of the Huai River, and automatically and spontaneously molded a golden body for him, kowtowing every day, and sending fresh offerings.
Next to the statue of the crown prince, there is also a statue of the crown princess in some temples.
Two people, one left and one right, are talented men and women. Yun Xi went to see it once, and his heart was like a knife, so he stopped looking.
Father-in-law Su gave her a letter, which Ji Luo had written a long time ago.
He said, I'm sorry to make me selfish for once. Every time, it's me who watches you go first, this time, okay if I go first?
He said, if you feel pain, it means that you also love me, then, the next time we meet, promise me, okay?
He also said that life is too long and too short, but the meaning of my life is only you. Forgive me for being ruthless this time, I don't want to hear the answer to your rejection, then, next time, don't reject me again......
Yun Xi cried for a long time, and wanted to tear up the letter ruthlessly, but after thinking about it, he still kept it.
Ji Luo is sometimes naΓ―ve like a primary school chicken, but most of the time he is scheming and has no last resort.
When the emperor heard the news of the crown prince's martyrdom, he fell ill at once.
Even the snowflakes all over the country are praising the merits and virtues of his most beloved son, and even asking him to be crowned crown prince cannot give him any comfort.
Until Yun Xi returned to Beijing under the protection of the people left behind by Ji Luo, returned to the palace, and came to him.
