Chapter 3379 3381【The old friend has passed away】
In May, Concubine Hui, Gao Xiyue, became increasingly ill and medicine failed to work.
When Xiang Nan heard about this, he rushed to Chengqian Palace to visit her.
"We haven't seen each other for a few days, why are you so sick? It must be because you slaves don't take care of her well." Seeing Gao Xiyue lying on the bed, her face pale and her eyes dull, he couldn't help but scolded her angrily.
The maid Mo's heart was so frightened that all the maids and eunuchs knelt down quickly.
"Your Majesty, my concubine has been weak since she was a child. She accidentally caught some wind and cold a few days ago, which aroused her chronic illness, and she became so ill. Don't do anything to them." Gao Xiyue said with strength, "Please, Your Majesty, don't Blame them."
“My beloved, don’t be anxious, just lie down and lie down, I don’t blame them.” Xiang Nan stepped forward quickly and then waved his hand to let Mo Xin and others get up.
"Your Majesty, I know that I am dying and can no longer be by your side. However, with your grace for so many years, my death is worth it." Gao Xiyue added, "The only thing I regret is that I didn't do anything for you. I am extremely ashamed to have left behind a son and a half daughters."
"Don't say that. You just have a minor illness. As long as you take some more medicine, you will be fine." Xiang Nan quickly comforted her and said, "Besides, husband and wife are fate, and children are debts. It's okay not to have them. Otherwise, Being born into a royal family, it is inevitable that you will fight for power and gain when you grow up, and you will have to worry about them when the time comes."
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your explanation.” Gao Xiyue nodded.
"Xi Yue, do you have any other wishes? Whatever I can do, I will definitely help you realize it." Xiang Nan asked again.
"Your Majesty, I would also like to hear you play "Happy Encounter"." Gao Xiyue said.
Xiang Nan was stunned, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"Happy Encounter" was the song he played when he met Gao Xi at the beginning of the month. Unexpectedly, she didn't have any other request before she died. She just wanted to hear him play this song, which moved him deeply.
To be honest, although he didn't like Gao Xiyue very much at first, he thought she had almost nothing except her beauty. Talent, scheming, and conduct are all poor.
Killed the children of Mei Bin and Yi Bin and put the blame on Ruyi; set off fireworks with the intention of burning Ruyi to death; changed the food in Ruyi's cold palace; made slanderous remarks to the queen and slandered Ruyi and performed the evil winning method...
But these things are all in the play. Over the years since he traveled through time, she has done no other evil things except listening to Jin Yuyan's bewitchment and intending to harm Yihuan.
Furthermore, after being together for so many years, even an object, let alone a human being, has feelings. What's more, she always had herself in her heart, and when she was dying, she was only willing to listen to herself play one song.
This friendship made Xiang Nan feel very indebted.
So he quickly asked Mo Xin to bring the pipa, and then played it for Gao Xiyue.
At this moment, he was extremely attentive and used all his abilities.
When Gao Xiyue heard the long-lost pipa sound, her face turned a little rosy and her eyes became a little angry. Then, she slowly closed her eyes.
Xiang Nan finished playing the song and felt Gao Xiyue's pulse. It had stopped beating.
He let out a long sigh, put down his pipa, with tears in his eyes, and announced with a crying voice, "Concubine Hui has passed away. According to the decree, Concubine Hui is posthumously named Imperial Concubine Huixian, and the funeral ceremony will be carefully handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
The **** went immediately.
After Gao Xiyue’s death, the concubines and concubines came to express their condolences one after another, each one shedding tears.
Although Gao Xiyue has an arrogant personality, she has no scheming personality. Since the last time he plotted against Yi Huan and was punished by Xiang Nan, he has been keeping to himself, so his popularity in the palace is actually pretty good.
Especially the old man in Qiandi, who has been with her for more than 40 years, and their friendship is extraordinary. Even if there were some festivals before, I have grown old over the years and have looked away from everything. So when she left, everyone was naturally reluctant to part with her.
Xiang Nan ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare Gao Xiyue's funeral well, not advocating extravagance and glitz, but it should also be done decently. After all, Gao Xiyue loved beauty the most during her lifetime.
Xiang Nan will also be buried with her, the phoenix-necked pipa that has been with her for many years.
…
Not long after Gao Xiyue’s death, Jin Yuyan from Qixiang Palace also passed away for unknown reasons.
Although she had no favor these years, she still lived in Qixiang Palace and suffered a lot. Xiang Nan didn't pay attention to her at all, and the harem also regarded her as a taboo, and no one paid attention to her at all. Even the maids and eunuchs didn't want to see her.
But for some reason, she never died. She has survived to this day, and her vitality is really tenacious. However, no matter how long you live, you will eventually die. Jin Yuyan is really dead now.
Xiang Nan didn't care that she was dead. He just ordered her to be buried as she pleased, and she was not allowed to be buried in the concubine's mausoleum. Even after death, I don't want to see her again.
When the people in the palace learned of her death, they were indifferent. Even the old man Qian Di has been with her for several years, but he has no feelings for her.
At first, everyone knew that Jin Yuyan harbored evil intentions and had evil thoughts. Who among such people would not worry about being bitten by her if they got close to her?
Secondly, Jin Yuyan relied on her unparalleled beauty when she was in the dormitory. Except for the queen and Gao Xiyue, she was never close to anyone else.
Therefore, after she committed a crime and caused public outrage, she had no friends in the palace. Now naturally no one in the palace cares about her death.
Even after her death, some people said a few words, but they were nothing more than "she deserved it", "she should have died long ago", "a lesson learned from the past" and the like. No one shed tears for her, and no one offered incense for her. The Ministry of Internal Affairs buried her hastily.
…
After Jin Yuyan's death, the imperial court reported the funeral to the Northern Yu family as usual.
Unexpectedly, after hearing the news of Jin Yuyan's death, the Yu family not only showed no sadness, but even quickly sent four beauties to continue serving the emperor.
It turns out that the Yu clan is in the north and is considered a powerful country. Later Jin Dynasty fought two wars before turning the Yu clan into a vassal state. But the Yu family was not docile. They even contacted Nanming in the past, hoping to attack from the north and south to overthrow the Qing Dynasty.
Furthermore, the Yu family continued to use Chongzhen dating in China until the 20th century. It can be said that they were at odds with the Qing Dynasty and were at odds with each other.
However, after Xiang Nan succeeded to the throne, he carried out large-scale reforms, especially after conquering the whole world and building the railway to the northeast, the Yu family knew that their situation was over.
If you don't behave better, when the army arrives, the Yu family will have no chance to resist. After all, even Japan has now become the Zhendong Protectorate.
Therefore, although the Yu family knew that Jin Yuyan died an aggrieved death, not only was she still buried as a noble after her death, but she was not even buried in the concubine's mausoleum, which was a great humiliation for the Yu family.
However, they still did not dare to say a word. Instead, they continued to express their loyalty. They not only continued to express their loyalty, but also sent four carefully selected beauties.
