ZHAO JUREN'S LAST LOVE
CHAPTER 54. Wise in Doubt
"But he can still be buried in his family's land, right?"
His Majesty was speechless, in the face of that smiling Xiao Yi's face, he was sincere and did not defend anyone even though he had once almost died in poison by Suri Li Sui's mother.
"It will not be agreed to send the body of the rebel to be buried with respect by his family." His Majesty said sharply.
"Your Majesty, I do not advise His Majesty to go against the law of the State, let the state punish his guilt during life. But when he's dead, there's nothing we have to lose anymore. Mistakes of the body are borne by the body, but family obligations are still obligations. Forcing to bury him in a palace cemetery certainly caused turmoil for the political opponents of His Majesty's supporters? similarly, tenderly giving her body to the family of Nobles Zhao "This calm-faced Empress raised a black eyebrow, as if thinking.
"But His Majesty can return the body in another way?"
"Return the body of the queen in another way? What do you mean, Chenxing?"
"Wouldn't His Majesty be able to make a letter of renunciation of the title of Queen Mother and rule the condemned during Zhao Li Sui's lifetime, it was returned by the state disrespectfully to the Zhao family and ordered them to bury him in the land of the Zhao family without being allowed to be worshipped by the common people. Zhao Li Sui's grave should only be visited by her family and not receive state honors."
"Is that not too cruel?" His Majesty is stunned.
" Ruthless? What cruelty can be felt without life? The only ones who care about cruel words are the ones who are still alive. Isn't that an appropriate punishment for letting his body be eaten by a vulture?" Xiao Yi said a word.
His Highness Yan Yue was speechless, contemplating every sentence that Xiao Yi spoke.
"Will Zhao Juren not hate me for this?"
"Mr Zhao Juren is dead." Xiao Yi bit his lips, his voice sounding resolute.
"If he was alive, I think he understood, His Majesty decided this by the hand of a king not a brother. Being a king of course can not only use the heart and feelings but also promote policy. There may still be a handful who are dissatisfied but it is better than many who are opposed."
His Majesty perceives all the words that the empress said, then he understands Xiao Yi is just trying to give him a good way out, Xiao Yi knew he loved Zhao Juren and of course hurt Zhao Juren even if she had died if her mother had not been properly buried by her family.
"What punishment is greater than humiliation? Officially announce the death of Zhao Li Sui to the corners of the country even to the neighboring country, it is a punishment for him, so that everyone knows, the traitor of the country has died."
"Why should it be officially announced? I can request the handover of the Queen Mother's body in a secret and secret manner. Isn't that better?" His Majesty furrowed his brows.
"What can be covered, the walls of Weiyan's palace are thinner than the clouds. Good news can be bad, especially bad news. Rather than cover it up and develop into a misunderstanding, wouldn't it be best for everyone to know, the queen mother died by suicide?"
"Wouldn't Zhao's surname be smeared even worse?"
His Majesty did not blink looking at his wise wife. She felt grateful that someone was always beside her, lightening all her burdens and pointing the way at her when she didn't even think of anything.
"Chenxing.why are you always such a vile when this moon is colorless?" His Majesty gulped down his saliva, pulled Xiao Yi's fingers on the table and stroked his wife's cold handbook lovingly
A fine night rain, falling on the pear flowers outside the hall, incense burned in the room, its smoke faintly filled the room, quiet and silent. Xiao Yi's hand gently stroked the embroidery on His Majesty's sleeve, then he again said, "Chenxing is your star Your Majesty, he will always be beside Yue."
When he looked at His Majesty's smile, he realized his love for this king could never be cold. He would devote a lifetime to this lonely king.
In the deepest recesses of his heart, he could only keep regret, regretful,
"Juren, I'm sorry I couldn't properly preach your mother's death, because I don't know where you are now in our enemy's hemisphere. But, I know that with this news of your mother's death will reach your ears after this, may you not be too sad about it. This method is the best choice among the worst. You can go home if you have time to attend your mother's funeral secretly, at least as a child you may still be able to pay your last respects to her. You can continue to visit his tomb freely if it is not in the palace environment. Hopefully that way, I can repay your kindness. Pray to him, the fault of the parents may be on the responsibility of his son but the prayer of his son will bring calmness to his parents despite being in a different realm.This is all I can do to you, fight for your mother's body so that it can be buried properly. May you understand, the body does not need titles and honor but it will mean receiving love and respect from his family. Don't take revenge on His Majesty, he has been trying to carry out his duties. Don't be mad at me, for the death of a man no one knows the way, no one is powerless to prevent it."
The sound of the rain pattering over the precarious palace slowly dissipated, the whining of Princess Yuhuan made the two of them who looked at each other in silence, trying to strengthen each other realized.
"Yuhuan may be hungry." His Majesty's smile was blotting out, he moved on a little excitedly. He waited for his daughter to wake up, but he couldn't wait for her.
"I'll hold her for a while while you prepare milk for her." Whisper Your Majesty.
Empress Xiao Yi smiled softly, her eyes shining warmly, her head nodding softly.
Empress Xiao Yi
His Majesty Yan Yue
