In the quiet night, the lanterns under the eaves of the palace emitted a dim light.

Changle Palace is as deserted as ever, and seems to be what it was ten years ago, but it has long changed things and people.

The palace maids had already rested, but the lights were still on in the side hall of the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The corridor column reflects the light of candlelight, and the red curtains are gently swayed by the night wind. A figure stands in front of the black and white wall, leaving a single reflection on the huge peony flowers.

After returning from Tai Chi Palace, the Empress Dowager stood here and stared blankly at the painting in front of her.

"A real man should live, and die if he dies..."

"The national humiliation is ahead, my Xu family's son, who is the one who dies..."

"...it's just...it's impossible...only the Queen Mother can save me..."

"...If the Empress Dowager is unwilling, I will not force him. If the Empress Dowager is willing, I will repay him for the rest of my life..."

All kinds of words echoed in my mind, including what she said, what Xu Buling said, every sentence impacted my mind, making her who thought she was steady and unable to calm down for a moment.

Save Xu Buling...

If it were just that, she would agree without any hesitation.

The Xu family has brought peace to the world, and the descendants of the future generations are infected with evil diseases. As the daughter of the Xiao family, if she is not saved, how can she be worthy of the teachings she received since childhood...

Xu Buling stood up for the country today and took back what should have belonged to Dayue at the cost of her life. As Dayue's empress dowager, if she stood by and watched, how could she be worthy of the phoenix robe on her body...

And she didn't want Xu Buling to die...

Hongluan cannot be lost, Xu Buling's only support...

Save, you must be saved, and there is no reason not to save.

A rescued method...

The Empress Dowager shook her head with difficulty, and her eyes showed deep entanglement.

How is it possible...

How could there be such a method...

How could she agree to this unreasonable detoxification method...

She is the daughter of the Xiao family. She was born in a family and her ancestors were open and honest in her generations. As a descendant, her personal integrity and reputation are greater than her life. She has never lost any honor for ten years. How could she ruin her reputation for this?

She is the queen mother of Dayue, the mother of a country. She is the legitimate mother of today and the role model of women in the world. She has been working diligently for ten years in the palace. If Xu Buling is saved by this method, what kind of face does she have to live with the world? The face of the Song family and the face of the Xiao family will be defeated by her...

Can't save...

Absolutely not saved...

...How can you feel at ease if you don’t save it?

Xu Buling was originally harmed by evil people, but now he is loyal to the country and is in danger of his life. If he watches coldly, can she be worthy of her face and conscience?

It’s not possible to save it, it’s not possible to save it. She is just a woman, how can she choose?

The Empress Dowager held her hands tightly, tears burst out from her eyes, breathing rapidly, and wanted to be hysterical, but she still maintained her former demeanor.

The night wind rustled, and the deep palace was cold.

Time passed little by little, and there was only one breath in the hall, and the huge peony painting.

The empress dowager stood in front of the painting like this, the sun rose and set, and the palace lanterns were lit and turned off. The palace maid called out countless times outside the door, and Qiao'e came in several times to persuade her and then went out, but she didn't move.

I don’t know how long it took, but the queen mother’s after seeing the little man on the table and half a string of candied haws held in the little man’s hand…

The villain held the candied haws with a bright smile, which looked a bit ridiculous, but it would be unforgettable for her in her life.

The picture of handing over the candied haws is still lingering in my mind. Aibeiduo Bookstore

The Empress Dowager's eyes gradually calmed down and gradually became a little dazed again.

Looking back, there is not a half hour on the street worth remembering for ten years in the deep palace...

I'm afraid the rest of my life will be like this...

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager suddenly showed some determination on her face.

Instead of staying in the deep palace and living old and dead, no one knows what to do, maybe the people who should live will survive...

Xu Buling is the prince of Prince Su. He can die for the country, but he shouldn't die at this time...

The world is not yet settled, and the disputes between the Three Kingdoms may sweep the people at any time. Xu Lie is needed to shock the monarchs of the Three Kingdoms and all kings and princes. If Xu Buling dies, who will be this person...

Xu Buling has the talent of heaven and knows the honor and disgrace of the people, and has the support of the twelve states of Xiliang. If anyone else has the qualifications...

And compared with the world, what did she count for her life?

A real man dies if he dies. Although she is a woman, she is also the daughter of the Xiao family. She should be as good as a man...

Why can she be willing to sacrifice her life for the honor and disgrace of the country? Why can she be willing to sacrifice her life for the righteous man of the country...

Sorry to the Song family, sorry to the Xiao family.

At least she, Xiao Xianger, is right for everyone in the world!

The empress dowager's body trembled slightly, she groaned almost sharply, walked quickly to the table, picked up a brush, and wrote lines of handwriting on the white rice paper.

"For ten years in the deep palace, this palace has governed the palace, respected etiquette and law, and had no children at all. He was willing to fulfill the responsibilities of his own people. He never slacked off for a moment and was worthy of the Song family.

Ancestors’ teachings: The world is righteous, and etiquette, honor and disgrace, life and death, reputation and reputation are all things that cannot be abandoned.

Xu Buling spared no effort to save his life for the sake of justice. This palace saved him, and he gave him the right teachings of ancestors.

Xu Buling would spare his life, so why should I, Xiao Xianger, cherish this body? I am the only one who dies.

My ancestors have spirits in heaven. If I feel that it is inappropriate, I will bear the responsibility for pigs, dogs, cows and horses in the next life!"

Rush silly

Writing quickly.

After the empress dowager finished writing, she picked up the gold knife of paper cut, cut her fingers, and wrote down her name in blood on the rice paper.

Then he returned to the bedroom and took out a bottle of poison and a wine pot from among the dazzling array of objects.

The poison was prepared when he was just widowed in the deep palace and was tortured by loneliness and despair. With a little fragrance of flowers, he could be relieved in his dreams after drinking it, but he finally resisted it and didn't drink it.

Pour the poison into the wine pot, and then set up an incense table in the main hall of Changle Palace, lit three incense sticks.

The Empress Dowager wore a fiery red phoenix robe, knelt on the cushion, lit the blood letter to worship the ancestors of the Xiao family, and put it in the brazier.

"Take my life for his life!

If you lose your fortune, you will be compensated for your life!

The great soil of heaven is a common understanding!

The plain words came out, and the empress dowager's entangled eyes gradually became peaceful.

Rice paper turns into ashes in the flames, and blue smoke rises.

The Empress Dowager raised her beautiful cheeks and watched the faint blue smoke rise, rising to the dome, passing through the eaves and green tiles, until it reaches the nine heavens.

As if the heavy burden in his heart was finally put down, the Empress Dowager collapsed and sat on the ground and breathed lightly, revealing a smile.

His eyes were staring blankly above. It was the dome of the hall that was solemn but not as popular as it was. The blue smoke had dissipated between heaven and earth.

Maybe this is the case, dying is a bit meaningful...
