MTL - After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart-Chapter 124 fortunately
When Sima Chao arrived halfway, he heard the death knell ringing.
When Sima Chao walked outside the emperor's bedroom, the hall was covered with white hangings, and the steps were packed with people kneeling down, including important civil and military ministers, as well as concubines, princes and princesses sobbing softly.
A generation of emperors finally ended his absurd life.
When the chamberlain saw Sima Chao, he hurriedly came over and said, "Young general, the general is inside. Let you go in."
Sima Chao walked into the main hall. In the inner hall, the ceremonial supervisors were busy collecting the emperor's body. Sima Zhengde stood outside the hall with a solemn expression. When he saw his eldest son, he couldn't help scolding him in a low voice: "Yesterday Where have you gone in the evening? I have been ordering people to look for you, why are you here now?"
The emperor has long been seriously ill, and the imperial doctor has announced the funeral arrangements in the past two days. At this critical juncture, Sima Zhengde has long told his son to pay close attention to the situation in the palace. Sima Chaoben has been guarding the palace for several days, but yesterday he didn't even I missed Love, so I couldn't help but rush to find her.
It’s a good thing he rushed over, otherwise, he would have lost his love forever.
She entered the palace at the age of sixteen, and now more than ten years have passed, and her best years have been wasted in this shameful palace. Although her appearance has not aged yet, her heart is already riddled with holes.
Sima Chao smiled: "It's really rare that you can have such a clear mind even when you are half asleep and half awake."
As soon as he entered the palace gate, which was as deep as the sea, Sima Chao, as the leader of the inner court, could not meet his sister casually. The emperor had just passed away. According to the rules, Sima Chuyu had to mourn for the emperor, so he could walk out of his palace. .
When Love and Sima Chao were having a heated argument, Sima Chao also secretly asked himself, what is it about this woman that attracts him and makes him want to stop her so much.
Sima Chao stared at his sister's leaving figure, and he was suddenly startled.
Her father gave her life, but for the sake of power, he personally killed her life's happiness. How could Sima Chuyu not hate him?
Sima Chao felt ashamed and asked his father in a low voice: "What does your Majesty's last edict say?"
Love woke up with a start. She raised her eyes to look at Sima Chao and asked: "I heard the death knell today. The emperor passed away, right? Is there any posthumous edict left? Who ascended the throne? Who assisted the government?"
“The King of Qi has ascended the throne, and my father is assisting the government.” He said.
Concubine Xian is Sima Chuyu, the eldest sister of Sima Chao.
“He is not my father!”
Father may favor him, but he will never condone him putting aside his great career for a woman.
He lay beside her and held her gently in his arms.
Sima Chuyu stopped crying and said with a wry smile: "What if I go back? My whole life has been ruined."
Although the late emperor left a will, power has changed and various forces are ready to take action. Sima Chao has many things to be busy with.
Sima Zhengde subconsciously looked around, rolled his eyes at his son, and said, "How can you still remember this? I thought you were really so lustful that you lost your mind?"
After finally handling the important matters in the palace, the full moon was already rising in the sky. Sima Chao planned to take a look at Luo Fu first. She was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by someone from the first palace, saying that Concubine Xian wanted to see her.
He quietly came to the house where Love lived. The moonlight was bright, reflecting Love's peaceful sleeping face. When Sima Chao saw her, his impetuous mood throughout the day instantly calmed down.
In addition to her beauty, her intelligence is far beyond that of ordinary women.
The Sima family and Concubine Guo finally reached an alliance.
"What did you do?" Sima Zhengde asked again in a deep voice when he saw that his son was unconscious.
In the past, he almost missed Love. Fortunately, he came to his senses.
Seventy-seven. Seventy-six. One hundred and seventy-nine. Two hundred and one
“Brother.” Sima Chuyu cried when he saw his younger brother. Sima Chao hugged his sister and comforted him: "It's okay this time. The emperor is dead. My father will find a way to take you home, and you will be free in the future."
Sima Zhengde glanced at his son and said solemnly: "What could be more important than the change of imperial power?"
Sima Chao frowned: "Sister, you still resent your father, right?"
Love breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "Congratulations."
After leaving the imperial city, Sima Chao got on his horse and went straight to his family temple outside the city.
Sima Chao suppressed the panic in his heart and replied: "How can father say that? I did have something important to attend to yesterday, so I left the imperial city."
Sima Chao was shocked!
If his father knew that he refused to marry the princess because of Love, how would his father treat Love?
Sima Chao quickly collected his thoughts and replied: "There were some important things yesterday that I need to deal with urgently."
After saying that, he said goodbye to Sima Chao and left alone.
The men who could appear inside and outside this palace at this moment were all people at the pinnacle of power. Looking at them, Sima Chao suddenly felt that these things he had been pursuing so hard seemed not as good as the joy he had holding Love yesterday. More truly happy.
Sima Chao is still frightened by the danger she experienced yesterday.
Before entering the palace, Sima Chuyu once had a sweetheart, but his father still cruelly broke them up and forced his daughter to enter the palace. Now, that person is married and has children. Even if Sima Chuyu is free, what he missed at the beginning will not be lost. Gotta get it back.
“eldest sister.”
Sad and despairing.
Sima Zhengde sighed slightly, looked at his son and said: "The imperial edict has been issued, King Qi has ascended the throne, and my father is the regent."
He was always thinking about Love.
Sima Chuyu became excited when they mentioned their father. He looked at Sima Chao and said sadly: "Since he cruelly sent me to the palace, I no longer regard him as my father."
Sima Chao wanted to persuade him again, but Sima Chuyu waved his hand and said: "The most irreparable thing in life is miss. I have missed the best thing in my life. For the rest of my life, there will be no more happiness for me. "
Sima Chao saw that his sister was sad, so he also felt sad: "Sister, my father is heartbroken when I send you to the palace. The emperor just passed away today, and my father just told me that he wants to take you home in a hurry."
Sima Chuyu tried her tears and said with a wry smile: "I don't want to go home. There is nothing worth remembering about that kind of home. When I leave here, I will go to my family temple and spend the rest of my life as a Qing Deng Ancient Buddha."
Sima Chao met his sister in the side hall of the emperor's mourning hall.
Sima Chao held her arm tightly and said, "Let's not talk about this yet."
He kissed the smooth forehead of the woman in his arms and said, "I'm going to be busy these two days. It's chaotic outside right now, and I'm worried that this place is unsafe. Tomorrow morning, I'll ask Yingfeng to take you to a safer place."
As he spoke, he sighed slightly and added: "Also, I'm afraid I won't be able to visit you often for a while. You must be obedient and don't run around. After this period of time, I will find a way to tell my father that I can marry you." As my wife, Afu, you have to be obedient and wait for me, you know?"
