788. Chapter 788 Palace change 8
At the top of the hall, the emperor was seen leaning on the dragon chair, with a trace of black blood slowly dripping from the corner of his mouth, which was an obvious sign of poisoning.
His heart suddenly tightened, Nangong Yi stared blankly at the emperor who was smiling at him, and endless pain surged from his heart.
Originally, he thought that the hatred in his heart had drowned out the family affection, but at this moment, seeing the loss of life, Nangong Yi's eyes became wet.
Why, why must it be like this? He didn't kill him, but he took his own life.
He didn't step forward, nor did he cry out in pain. When Nangong Yi stared blankly at the moment when the emperor closed his eyes, only the five fingers hidden in his sleeves were tightly pulled into fists.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty~ Why are you so hard to think about~" The eunuch in charge had followed the Emperor since he was a child. At this moment, he fell to his knees on the ground and burst into tears.
"Yi~" Ling Muchao pursed her lips upon seeing this, then raised her slender white jade hand and gently patted Nangong Yi's shoulder.
Although this man was as cold as ice and hid his emotions very well at the moment, the pain in his heart could not escape Ling Mulao's eyes.
"Let's go~" Nangong Yi closed his eyes gently, took a deep breath, and then stopped looking at the golden python robe.
"Your Majesty, Sixth Prince, oh no~ Your Majesty, please wait~" The eunuch chief suddenly saw Nangong Yi was leaving and immediately chased after him.
Then he took out a bundle of documents from his arms, knelt on the ground, and handed it to him with trembling hands: "Your Majesty, I have served as a servant for the late emperor for decades. You don't know a lot of suffering, but I know it.
Now that the late emperor has passed away, I should follow him, but before I leave, I think it is necessary for you to take a look at this document."
With an almost invisible frown, Nangong Yi put his hands behind his back, but had no intention of taking them.
Ling Mulao bit her lip lightly, glanced at Nangong Yi and then leaned down to take the document from the hand of the eunuch chief, "Yi, you should take a look~"
Clenching his fists tightly, Nangong Yi knew what Ling Mulao was thinking. There were some things that he should know the truth no matter what the outcome was.
Opening the document, Nangong Yi read it word by word, but every line and every word pierced his heart like a sharp sword.
"Where did you get this document?" Nangong Yi suddenly raised his head and roared violently like a chief eunuch.
However, no one answered his question, because the eunuch chief had committed suicide and followed the late emperor.
Seeing Nangong Yi's reaction, Ling Mulao guessed that the content must be closely related to the death of his mother and concubine, so he couldn't help but take the document and take a look.
Between the lines, there are words written by Wen Zou Zou. Judging from the title, it should be written by the emperor's mother, the Queen Mother.
The content is roughly an exhortation to the emperor to put the country, the country, and the country first, and for the sake of the great country of Tianxuan, to carry on the family line, and not to favor only one woman.
At the end of the document, the Queen Mother threatened the emperor with her own life to execute Nangong Yi's mother-in-law, otherwise she would execute Nangong Yi herself.
It's unclear what the emperor's original thoughts were, but judging from the current ending, the emperor finally chose to keep Nangong Yi and execute his mother-in-law.
The emperor never allowed exclusive affection. After watching many palace battles in the Qing Dynasty, Ling Mulao knew that the emperor's exclusive favor was often an invisible weapon that killed people.
