Seeing that he had said everything, Lu Tingli also simply said bluntly, dispelling the concerns in his heart: "Xia Tuanzi, if these are what you are worried about, then I, Lu Tingli, can swear that I will only marry Xia Ningxing in this life, love her, protect her, love her, respect her, and if you violate it, the sky will thunder, and the throne will be unstable!" ”

This oath can be said to be really poisonous.

Xia Tuanzi stared at him in astonishment, and his mouth could stuff a whole egg.

Apparently didn't expect him to do that.

But even if he swore an oath, Xia Tuanzi still stared at him for a long time, as if he wanted to judge whether what he said was true or false.

In the end, I really couldn't see the cheating, so I had to sigh and warn him: "Lu Tingli, I hope what you say is true, otherwise, I will be a big rebel and risk being beheaded, and I will never let you go!" ”

He gritted his teeth, like a ruthless wolf cub, and let it go.

Xia Ningxing is his only relative in this world, and he will never allow her to make any mistakes, otherwise he will never let go of the other party even if he takes his life.

When Xia Ningxing heard this, he only felt that his heart was wrapped in a thick warm current, and his emotion was like an overwhelming tide.

When the dignified prince faced such a provocation and threat, Lu Tingli not only did not get angry, but also gave him a promise: "When I succeed to the throne, I will give you Shang Fang's sword, and you can kill the traitorous minister." ”

"When the time comes, if I bully your sister, you can use this knife to cut me as soon as possible." His tone was serious and serious, and he didn't look like he was joking.

At this point, Xia Tuanzi finally had no doubts.

"I really lost my eyes." He snorted.

I didn't expect Lu Tingli to be a reliable person.

Lu Ting scolded: "Aren't you looking away, with a brother-in-law like me, you still pick and choose." ”

Xia Tuanzi: "......"

About a few days later, news came from the palace that the emperor was going to die.

Lu Tingli and Xia Ningxing entered the palace one after another to wait.

In the palace, dark clouds were shrouded, and the undercurrent was surging and the air pressure was heavy, as if he knew that the next day was going to change.

The palace maids and eunuchs guarding the surroundings trembled like frightened birds.

The civil and military officials also didn't dare to take a breath, and waited outside with different expressions.

Seeing Xia Ningxing and Lu Tingli coming, he hurriedly saluted: "Weichen has seen the crown prince, and he has seen the crown princess." ”

"No courtesy." After Lu Ting said the next sentence, he hurriedly pulled Xia Ningxing into the dormitory

The emperor has no skills to return to heaven, and the imperial doctor can only use mild medicine to hang his life.

After hearing the movement, the emperor used all his strength to barely open his eyes slit, and stared tremblingly in the direction of his location: "Old, second ......"

He called him so weakly, without the demeanor of a king in the past.

"The son is here." Lu Tingli stepped forward, sat beside him, glanced at him condescendingly, and saw him dying, his heart was full of complicated emotions.

He should have hated him, and if it weren't for his one-night affair, her mother wouldn't have fallen to the point of an untimely death.

But when he really saw that he was going to die, he did not have a trace of the pleasure of revenge in his heart.

Of course, there was no sadness, as if the other party was just an inconsequential passerby.

When Lu Ting was stunned, a pair of withered hands held him.

These hands are so thin that only skin and bones are left, and they don't even have much temperature.

Lu Ting was stunned, lowered his eyebrows and met the emperor's old and cloudy gaze.

"Second child, father, father, cough cough, father can't stand you, also, cough cough, can't stand your biological mother......" He squeezed out the intermittent sentence from the hoarse voice with all his might.

When I coughed halfway, I saw that my whole body was shaking, like a plate of loose sand.

This long-lost apology made Lu Ting tremble slightly.

People are gone, and so many sins have been suffered, so what's the use of apologizing now?

What's the use!?

Lu Ting wanted to yell at him loudly and question him fiercely, but when he saw his eyes that were no longer bright, this thought finally faded.

It's just that he has something to do with a dying man.

The emperor didn't see him answer for a long time, so he couldn't help but ask again: "Second brother, you, cough cough, why don't you reply to me, you still can't forgive, cough cough cough, forgive me?" ”

He coughed up blood and donated blood, his eyes sad and with a hint of apprehension.

Lu Tingli suddenly understood the reason for his insistence.

He was afraid that he would hate him in his heart, and when he died, he wouldn't give him a grand funeral, right? And don't give him access to the Imperial Mausoleum?

Scold!

When you die, don't forget to think about yourself.

Lu Ting hooked his lips mockingly: "Father, you just put your heart in your stomach, how can you say that you are also my father, I will not lose you." ”

"It's just that my mother's life is miserable, and when the time comes, the ministers will definitely posthumously crown her as the Empress Dowager of Xianshu Rende, and then bury her with you, okay?" As he spoke, he tucked the quilt on him, and his movements were extremely gentle.

If outsiders see it, they must think that he is a great filial son.

But the words he said made the emperor half dead.

"Poof—"

The emperor spurted a mouthful of blood again, his fingers trembled and pointed at him, and his bloodshot eyes widened: "You, how dare you let me be buried with a palace maid!" ”

It's a shame!

It was a great insult to him!

Lu Tingli leaned down and said sarcastically in his ear: "This is a sin of your own making!" ”

"You...... You ......" The emperor's eyes were cracked, if his eyes could kill, Lu Tingli would have already pierced through a thousand holes.

In the end, he still couldn't lift his last breath and hiccuped directly.

When he died, those eyes like copper bells were still staring at Lu Tingli, as if he wanted to cut him with a thousand knives.

Lu Tingli sneered and raised his hand to help him close his eyes.

Then, he got up and said to the people outside: "The emperor has died." ”

After the five words fell, there was a cry all around, whether it was a civil and military official, a palace maid and eunuch, and a harem concubine, all of them squeezed out tears.

Of course, there are definitely not many who are really sad.

Since ancient times, the royal family has been the most ruthless.

Lu Tingli stared at them with a cold look in his eyes, and his heart was hypocritical.

The palace was hung with white everywhere.

The whole court banned any entertainment and pastime, the Qinglou Chu Pavilion was closed one after another, and various happy events were even more prohibited.

It can only be arranged after it is over.

At night, after Xia Ningxing slept, Lu Tingli drank alone outside the hall.

Although he has not yet officially ascended the throne, he is the prince, so he is naturally qualified to move into the emperor's bedroom in advance.

The dim moonlight fell on his white robe, stretching his shadow long and lonely.

He drank cup after cup, his mind empty, his eyes darkened, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

It can indeed make people feel his loneliness and sadness.

At this time, the woman walked gently and put her jacket on his shoulder: "It's so cold, I don't know how to wear more clothes when I come out, and ah, how many times have I said it, less cold wine, it's not good for your health......"

She said
