"Well, if your leg is really..., I will be responsible." Ah Man promised without even thinking.
Murong Kai looked at A'man in shock, but before he could say anything else, A'man turned around and stepped into the gate of Bei'an Palace.
Murong Kai looked at Ah Man's back, and all he could hear was Ah Man's words, "I will be responsible."
They had been together for many days, and it was always Ah Man who took the initiative. Ah Man never made any promises to Ah Man, but just let Ah Man call her his princess and say that he was her husband, etc.
Murong Kai always thought that since she didn't reject him, she had a crush on him. He thought that if he worked hard, he would eventually succeed. But he didn't expect that in such a short period of time, she would say that she wanted to be responsible for him.
Don't dislike your legs.
His heart was burning and the blood in his body was boiling with joy. Because of those words "I will be responsible", Murong Kai was as happy as a child.
However, the joy in my heart soon cooled down because of worry.
He even understood Ah Man's painstaking efforts. He just wanted him to forget her situation, but how could he forget it
She had already quietly lived in my heart. How could I forget the feeling of losing my heart
After sending A'man to the palace, Murong Kai returned to the inn to rest. However, before midnight, he was awakened by a nightmare. There was no news about A'man in the palace, so he didn't know how A'man was doing now.
What Murong Kai didn't know was that after Ah Man came to the palace, it was indeed a nightmare.
Before she even returned to her Canyang Palace, she was spotted by several guards. They followed her slowly, not for protection but more like stalking her.
"Is the prince okay?" Ah Man tried several times to get rid of them, but it was always in vain, and finally he had to give up.
There was no way to get rid of it, so she had to use it. However, none of the guards answered, which was very different from the respect they showed before she left the palace.
"What about my father? Take me to him."
The guards remained silent. Ah Man was annoyed, but because the situation was unclear, she did not dare to take any further action.
She thought she could ask someone around her mother about the situation, so she turned and walked towards Fengyang Palace.
The guard still followed behind him, silently, not too far away.
Ah Man's anger was suddenly ignited when she pushed open the door of Fengyang Palace, because Fengyang Palace was cold and quiet, which was totally different from the state after the death of a queen.
It took her several days to reluctantly accept the charge that her mother committed suicide out of fear of punishment. But now, seeing her mother in such a lonely situation after her death, she couldn't help but blame her father, who had been in love with her mother for more than ten years.
If it wasn't for his instigation, how could his mother be treated so humiliated
She walked slowly into the familiar hall. More than a month had passed, and the warmth and comfort of the past was now replaced by the chill of late autumn.
The queen mother was no longer in this familiar palace, nor were the palace maids who usually served her.
In the middle of the hall, her already cold mother lay in the cold coffin with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep. It seemed as if she would wake up at any time, stroke her head lovingly, call her name softly, and gently hold her in her arms.
But such beauty can only be a hazy dream. When Ah Man stretched out her hand and held her mother's hand, the cold touch instantly brought her back to her senses.
Her mother is no longer with us.
"Mother, I'm late." Ah Man fell to her knees and sobbed to the person in the coffin.
"Mother, please open your eyes and look at me. Tell me, what happened? Please tell me."
Even though she had already accepted the fact that her mother had passed away, she was still overwhelmed by grief the moment she saw her mother's body.
She couldn't accept her mother's death, and she didn't know what to do next.
Because what lay before her was darkness.
