The coffin was placed in a quiet and solemn room, and several ministers had just exited on their front feet, and they avoided them when they saw them.

Ruhua followed closely behind Xia Qianwei, until King Ming suddenly stopped and looked at her deeply, with an indescribable deterrent in that look, which made Ruhua stiffen and stiffened, and when she came back to her senses, she was already blocked out of the door.

The air seemed to be still, and the dark coffin lay quietly in front of Xia Qianwei.

She slowly approached with a slight frown, her white and slender hands caressing the cold wooden edge, and then gently pushed open the lid of the coffin.

A faint smell of decay mixed with the aroma of herbs that prevented the decay of dead things immediately diffused, and the long and familiar figure jumped into view, the black hair of this corpse seemed to be still at the length when Xia Qianwei saw him for the last time, only to become dry and frizzy because it had lost its vitality.

Mu Yunxiao on the side carefully observed Xia Qianwei's expression, and he clearly noticed that the little hands seemed to tremble slightly.

The clean and white nails seemed to leave marks on the coffin, and the originally stubborn beautiful eyes finally collapsed at this moment, covering them with a patch of red.

Xia Qianwei only felt that a boulder was pressed down on her chest, and a sad emotion almost broke through her chest.

"He has twenty-seven wounds on his body, which is proof that Long Yuan has been born and died for Chen Guo over the years, do you want to see it with your own eyes?"

It is undoubtedly a very cruel thing to let Xia Qianwei personally verify the body of this corpse.

Mu Yunxiao didn't seem to be aware of the girl's emotions at all, and took the initiative to pick up the shirt that had long been indistinguishable from its original color, revealing the torso covered with scars.

There was not the slightest warmth in his eyes, even if Xia Qianwei could no longer maintain her original indifferent expression, Mu Yunxiao did not intend to be merciful.

Maybe after she goes back today, it will be difficult for her to have another peaceful night.

But so what? This was his punishment for refusing his kindness to her.

"This king has ordered someone to examine these wounds carefully, and according to the rough calculation of the old and new years, it is consistent with the past experience of the king of You, and there is no fraud. And he once broke his bone, and then he was connected, the county lord of Yongle is so proficient in medical science, you might as well take a look at it......"

He grabbed Xia Qianwei's wrist and wanted her to touch the corpse, but the girl suddenly shook off his hand and retreated again and again, turning her back against the wall as if she had received a great blow.

Looking at the slightly undulating fragrant shoulders, Mu Yunxiao understood that she finally couldn't bear the fact that Mu Longyuan had indeed died cleanly.

"Reunited after a long absence, but heaven and man are forever separated, if you go back obediently, at least there is a thought. After all, a man like Long Yuan must want to be the noble and peerless King in your heart forever, not like this. ”

Mu Yunxiao was faintly relieved, but this was also the purpose of him letting Xia Qianwei come.

What you can't get is always the best, and he knows better than anyone else what it's like.

He could have ordered his subordinates to restore Mu Longyuan's appearance and let him return to the capital with dignity for everyone to mourn, but Mu Yunxiao didn't do it.

He said that he didn't dare to touch the body of the Youwang at will, but in fact, he wanted Xia Qianwei to see with her own eyes, and this tragic scene would erase the only good memories about Youwang that she had left for the rest of her life.

In the future, whenever she thought of this man, the horrific image in the coffin would naturally come to her mind.

In this way, are you still worried that she will not forget?

Seeing that the girl in front of him didn't respond for a long time, Mu Yunxiao's eyes moved slightly, he moved forward and came behind Xia Qianwei silently, and was about to reach out to grab her shoulder, but he heard a report from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty arrived. ”

Why did he come too?

Mu Yunxiao couldn't help frowning, you must know that Emperor Chen has not left the palace for many years, after all, only the palace full of imperial forest troops is the safest place.

This voice seemed to wake up Xia Qianwei, and she replied in a low voice, "The courtiers retreat." ”

Without waiting for Mu Yunxiao to say anything, the girl almost ran away with her skirt and trotted out of the house, looking at the embarrassed back that had lost even the courage to turn back, Mu Yunxiao looked at her empty palms again, and only felt a little pity.

I wanted to use his gentleness and thoughtfulness to get close to this girl who originally rejected people thousands of miles away when Xia Qianwei was most vulnerable, but he knew that he was spoiled by Emperor Chen again.

Soon, the noble man in plain clothes appeared in front of Mu Yunxiao, and he immediately restrained his expression and was about to salute, but was stopped by Emperor Chen.

"There's no need to be polite outside the palace, it's hard work, I ...... Want to see this kid alone. ”

The Ninety-Five Supreme stood straight, and there was no trace of sadness on his cold face, but there was a little more blockage in his voice.

Mu Yunxiao respectfully retreated, and soon a guard came to his side and whispered for a moment.

This man's eyes flashed, but he didn't expect that even the Queen Mother would leave the palace!

In the end, they are all her imperial grandchildren, no matter how much they don't like it, they always have to take a look when they die.

After all, it is impossible for Mu Longyuan's body to be sent to the palace, in order not to increase the arrogance of the enemy, it is even more impossible to mourn before the war is quelled, and the final outcome of King Youwang may be a hasty burial.

This is really a miserable end for the Youwang who has made great achievements.

Soon, only Emperor Chen and the suffocating coffin were left in the huge room.

No one could see the corners of the emperor's reddish eyes at this moment, he just stood there quietly, his breathing becoming heavier and heavier.

From his point of view, he could vaguely see the figure in the coffin, but he didn't have the courage to take a step further.

"Aren't you amazing? Why did you lie down? Don't you want to talk back to your father? ”

At this moment, every word of Emperor Chen seemed so difficult.

"You just want to hear an apology from your father, so you chose this way, right?"

The vision seemed to be a little blurry, and Emperor Chen's face showed a sarcastic smile, in the past, whenever Mu Longyuan stood in his imperial study, the father and son were unhappy, and it was impossible to shut up this unfilial son.

But now, it was so quiet that it was terrifying, and he really couldn't see the cold face that he didn't recognize his six relatives anymore.

The hand in his sleeve couldn't help but clench tightly, Emperor Chen knew that this was his only and the last time he would tell the truth to others, and the other party ...... There will be no response, he has no worries at all.

But this kind of reassurance is so bitter.

"You once asked your father, what was the truth back then? Is your mother still alive? In fact, you have already guessed it, but you always like to use this matter to anger your father. ”

Yes, Mu Longyuan's mother didn't die, she just suddenly left everything behind one day and flew away.

In such a well-guarded palace, there was no foreign concubine trapped, and no one should believe that all this was arranged by himself.

"As for why you let her go...... Because if she continues to stay in the palace, one day she will find that the man she worshipped did not exist at all, and everything was pretended to be ......"
