Because of Su Jing's statement, A'man asked someone to ask several university scholars to draft a posthumous title for her mother, while she herself hurried to Fengyang Palace.
When he arrived at Fengyang Palace again, the families of court officials were also summoned to keep vigil. The Fengyang Palace, which had been deserted before, was suddenly filled with crying.
Thinking that things in the palace had been almost dealt with, Ah Man put on mourning clothes, came to the queen's coffin, and knelt beside Jinxuan.
"Royal sister, we no longer have a mother." Turning his head to see Ah Man, Su Jinxuan's tears fell again.
"Jinxuan, you still have the imperial sister. With the imperial sister around, no one can bully you." Ah Man promised softly, but she had already made up her mind in her heart that she must protect Jinxuan and watch Jinxuan ascend to the throne of the emperor with her own eyes.
Even though she knew that Jinxuan was not in the emperor's favor, it was her mother's wish to make Jinxuan the emperor of Bei'an. Now that her mother was gone, she would help her realize her wish.
Jinxuan's small body leaned against A'man, and A'man reached out to hug her. The two of them snuggled tightly in front of the queen's coffin, feeling lonely as if they were abandoned by the whole world.
Since Murong Kai entered Fengyang Palace, he had been looking for Ah Man. However, when his eyes finally found the woman he had been thinking about, he felt very heartbroken.
He had seen Ah Man proud, arrogant, bright, and shy, but he had never seen her so lonely.
He resisted the urge to hold her in his arms and followed the eunuch into the mourning hall. Although it was inconvenient for him to sit in a wheelchair, he still bowed to the tablet of the queen. After everything was over, he turned around and looked at Ah Man.
Ah Man didn't expect Murong Kai to come. The moment he saw her, she was so shocked that she even forgot to return the gift.
However, Jinxuan, seeing her sister in a daze, quickly pulled her clothes, and only then did she come to her senses and saluted to Murong Kai.
“Princess Jiaoyang, I have something to say to you alone first. I wonder if I can…” Murong Kai looked up at Ah Man, the worry in his eyes was self-evident.
They hadn't seen each other for just one day, but she had lost weight, and the tiredness in her eyes made him feel distressed.
Ah Man looked at Murong Kai. She knew that Murong Kai had something to say to her, but she instinctively wanted to refuse.
Now, she is no longer the proud princess who is favored by everyone, and she has too many things to do. Does she really want to drag Murong Kai into the abyss of Bei'an
Although Murong Kai said that he would be with her and although he didn't mind, what they had imagined was far less cruel than the current reality.
She wanted to support Jinxuan, but Jinxuan was only five years old. She had to bypass her father to find out the truth about her mother's death. She had too many things to do...
But some of these things were really life-threatening, and even though she knew there was an abyss ahead, she still had to rush in.
She didn't want to involve Murong Kai, or to be more precise, she was reluctant to do so.
Murong Kai was like the moonlight in her life, hazy and beautiful. He was the most beloved prince of the Great Zhou Emperor. How could she be so worthy of him to stay in Bei'an for a long time for her? Moreover, the result might not be perfect.
Before Ah Man could refuse, Murong Kai reached out and held her hand.
Murong Kai's hands were warm, like the spring breeze blowing into the heart. Without waiting for Ah Man to speak, Murong Kai turned the wheelchair and brought Ah Man to the inner hall of Fengyang Palace.
The moment the door closed, Ah Man looked down at Murong Kai's eyes full of worry, and couldn't help but shed tears.
Murong Kai raised his hands and hugged Ah Man's waist. He was so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to hold her into his body.
