One month later, at the border of the imperial capital of Shangyu Kingdom.

This is already the imperial capital of the entire continent. The four kingdoms have been unified. Mang Yu, Shang Yu, Xia Yu, Mo Yu, Hu Qiuguo Anguo and other small and wealthy countries all have a unified name - Imperial Continent.

Ten years, exactly ten years, Lan Nianan had to work hard and usher in a prosperous age.

"Mother, we have to hurry up, otherwise it will get dark." Xiaoqi walked over and looked at the beautiful and breathtaking An Nuanzhi under the setting sun. She was momentarily absent-minded.

And An Nuanzhi's eyes were looking at the most spectacular mountains on the border for a long time, which was the imperial mausoleum of Shangyu Kingdom.

An Nuanzhi fell into deep thought while looking at the records of the concubines who once died in Emperor Taizong's mausoleum. In addition to the successive empresses, there are also several inconspicuous stone tablets with small characters on them.

.

Dingfei, Wanliuha family, was the daughter of the doctor Tuoerbi. When it was her birthday, she would be welcomed into the palace to congratulate her, but she never received the honorary title. She died at the age of ninety-seven. The concubine had the longest life span.

The longest concubine.

Imperial Concubine Dunyi, the daughter of Human, the leader of the Third Rank Association. She gave birth to a daughter, Shang.

The good concubine, the Wei family, was deeply disliked by her father when the prince was deposed. Under this condition, she could only act as a palace maid, doing some menial and heavy work. The opportunities for contact with the emperor were naturally much less than other palace ladies. But she actually

Being favored by the emperor and giving birth to a prince shows that her own conditions are very superior and she is a beautiful and outstanding woman.

"Empress, what are you thinking about?" Xiaoqi and Forsythia couldn't help but ask An Nuanzhi. Looking at her, she looked sadder than ever before.

"I am thinking about what my tombstone will look like a hundred years from now, and what will the inscription be like?"

"Empress, don't say unlucky words! You will always be the Empress. Now the Emperor has unified the four kingdoms and is in a period of great success, and you are the biggest contributor. If the most noble woman beside him is not you, who could it be?

"That's why the emperor went to Anguo to pick you up," Xiaoqi said with relief.

"Yes." Forsythia also said seriously.

An Nuanzhi squinted her eyes and looked into the distance. She had never felt like this before. She felt that happiness was very close to herself, but also far away from her. This uneasy and confused emotion troubled her, leaving her at a loss as to what to do...

…

I don’t know why, but the closer I am to happiness, the more panic I feel...

An Nuanzhi couldn't help but think of a saying, if love just meets and can't stay, it's better not to meet.

Yes, if she can no longer reap the rewards of being with Luo Hennian in this life, she will not be able to find her own happiness in her nth reincarnation in another thousand years, right?

Her children are already happy, and her maids and friends have also reaped their own happiness, but what about her?

"Your Majesty, the emperor's palace is just ahead. It's so grand!" Xiaoqi and Forsythia both looked excited, especially Forsythia. She was about to see her husband, Bai Zhao, and she couldn't express the excitement and sweetness in her heart.

And metaphor.

An Nuanzhi was a little envious of Forsythia. Forsythia's happiness was always pure and direct, but she didn't know why. Yingyingchuochuo always had bad premonitions. It must be said that a woman's sixth sense is amazingly accurate. When she

Stepping into the grand palace, the only person who greeted her was Bai Zhao.

"Where is the Emperor?"

An Nuanzhi looked behind him and saw nothing.

"The Emperor has been waiting for you." Bai Zhao's expression was a little gloomy, which showed that something must have happened.

When she saw the person she wanted to see, An Nuanzhi's nose became sore and tears flooded her sight, because there was only a tall coffin in front of her, exuding a cold and blurred luster, and her heart felt like it was falling into the ocean.

Has her true love left her?

What she waited ten years for was his funeral?

No----

An Nuanzhi felt that the blood in her body had gone cold, but she still had sense. She turned to look at Bai Zhao.

"General Bai, what happened? Where is the Emperor?"

There was heartache and unspeakable pity in Bai Zhao's eyes. He handed a square, folded letter in his hand to An Nuanzhi.

"Your Majesty, this is what the Emperor has left for you."

An Nuanzhi took it and saw the most eye-catching words on it, "Nuanzhi, you are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Looking further down, "I heard that Youting married a princess, and you have always taken good care of Anguo. Thank you, you are my hero, and Anguo's hero. With you by my side throughout my life,

I am satisfied."

Finally, there were a few lines of small words, "I have already made arrangements. I only have one child, Youting. He is the future emperor. The fourth lady of the Mo family, Mo Baochan, is the future empress. And you, you, are in a high and powerful position."

Empress Dowager, enjoy the most glorious treatment in the harem. I have arranged a summer palace for you. It was built by 50,000 workers in half a year. It is magnificent and magnificent for you to take care of yourself..."

An Nuanzhi didn't look any further, her heart ached beyond measure. She had lost Lan Nian'an. What was the use of having this gorgeous second half of her life?

In great grief, An Nuanzhi felt like she was about to faint, but she still held on.

"General Bai, how did the emperor die?"

"This..." Bai Zhao was about to answer when a coquettish female voice came from behind him.

"Long time no see, sister Xuan Ai."

A flamboyant rose-red dress came into view. This woman wore her hair in a high bun. The seven luminous orbs of the phoenix on it were unusually eye-catching. She looked at An Nuanzhi aggressively, but her face

It was something An Nuanzhi had never seen before.

"Why doesn't Sister Xuan Ai recognize me? I've been waiting for you for a long time." The woman smiled proudly and coldly.

"You are Lingshu." An Nuanzhi recognized her because she looked into her eyes. That look was so familiar, but why is Lingshu here?

Wasn't her immortal soul broken up? It stands to reason that she is just a bead and will never be reincarnated as a human being again. What's going on?

"Sister Xuan Ai is surprised, right?" Ling Shu tilted her head, looking extremely arrogant.

"Actually, sister Xuan Ai, please listen to me carefully. This is related to your most beloved man. Speaking of which, I still owe Lan Nian'an's blessing. An did not hesitate to sacrifice himself in order to revive me. He dedicated himself

It’s the part of Luohennian’s immortal soul that’s why he ended his life. You see him lying in the coffin. It seems that he still loves me.”

"Impossible!" An Nuanzhi interrupted Lingshu coldly. She and Luohennian had been in love for thousands of years and were destined lovers. How could Lannianan destroy herself for Lingshu?

"How could it be impossible?" Lingshu asked with a smile, "Don't you think that a thousand years of love will never change? Men are always fond of the new and dislike the old. What's more, which man is willing to face a woman for a thousand years? It's too monotonous.

Well, that’s why Luo Hennian doesn’t want to be with you even if he dies, tsk tsk tsk, you are so miserable!”

"Pa————"

Before Lingshu could finish speaking, she heard two crisp applauses falling heavily on her face. Xiaoqi and Forsythia were already trembling with anger. They couldn't help but help An Nuanzhi teach Lingshu a lesson.

"You bad woman, don't talk nonsense, be careful to tear your mouth apart! The emperor's favorite person is the empress, who are you?"

"Oh, no matter what, I asked Lan Nian'an to sacrifice for me. Your empress is just a loner. An just made her the empress dowager to make up for her. In fact, An doesn't love her a long time ago!" Ling Shu was still aggressive.

An Nuanzhi bit her lower lip. At this moment, every word Lingshu said was like a thorn, piercing into the deepest part of her heart.

How else could she deceive herself? No matter what, Lan Nian'an was the one who left first. He didn't fulfill his promise. He... betrayed her! Betrayed her and his love!

"I wish you happiness." An Nuanzhi glanced at Lingshu coldly. She never wanted to see this woman again.

An Nuanzhi turned around and walked away calmly. She was defeated, completely defeated, but her back was still straight and her back was still chic.

However, no one discovered that behind her chicness was a terrible sentimentality. Love extinguished the lights, and the heart surrounded a city. You took away half of the script. Love extinguished the lights, and the heart surrounded a city. I can't get out.

people.

But at this time, love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a drop of tears.

At the last moment, she pretended to be strong.

She doesn't care about everything Lan Nianan left for her. She has already thought about what to do next. She will let Youting inherit the throne of the empire, because that is the glory that belongs to her son, but she will not become the emperor.

Queen Mother, she is ready to leave this sad place and never come back.

She was tired and frustrated...

Because the person she loves most gave her life to another woman, so what reason does she have to stay?

After An Nuanzhi left, a gap opened in the coffin, and Lan Nianan walked out. He looked at Ling Shu.

"I've done what I promised you. Can you untie the remaining poison on Nuan Zhi's body?"

Lingshu's arrogant face suddenly darkened, and she said in despair, "You really care about her. Ten years ago, before my immortal spirit disappeared, I sprinkled pearl poison on her body, but you did not hesitate to resurrect me to detoxify her."

She detoxified you and you violated God's prohibition, so you won't live long. Don't you regret it?"

"I am a demon to begin with, and it is my habit to go against the will of heaven." Lan Nian'an replied expressionlessly.

"But why don't you love me? I'm no better than An Nuanzhi." Lingshu asked in pain.

"Even if you are exactly the same as her, I still won't love you, because I only love her." Lan Nian'an looked towards the direction where An Nuanzhi left, his expression for a long time, with a touch of infatuation.

He narrowed his eyes and remembered the happy time in heaven for thousands of years. His love for her has never changed...

"Empress..." Xiaoqi and Lianqiao couldn't bear to follow An Nuanzhi. They didn't expect that things would turn out like this. The emperor would hurt their empress just to save Lingshu, a bad woman. They felt that their empress had been hurt for so many years.

The effort is not worth it!

"I'm fine." Passing by the imperial mausoleum again, An Nuanzhi turned her head to look at the tall and majestic cemetery. It was exactly the same as her premonition when she came here. Her name would never appear here.

Goodbye to her youth, good-bye to her unforgettable love that hurt her completely, good-bye to the man she had loved deeply for three lifetimes.

Round after round, more than fifty years have passed.
