Chapter 1166 I Know My Mistake
Yun Dai grabbed her hand and shouted angrily: "Cry, cry, cry! What's the use of crying now? Can Yuzhu survive? Are you crazy?!"
Guo Ning's face was filled with tears and he was speechless.
Seeing the lifeless Yuzhu lying quietly on the bed, she felt extremely regretful.
At that time, she was impulsive and only thought that she would be kicked out of the palace and would never see Baoxing again.
She thought that since Baoxing refused to leave the palace with her, they would go to hell together.
Baoxing knelt beside the bed, his head hanging.
Yuzhu is infatuated with him, and he accepts her just to get rid of Guo Ning.
Thinking of all the tenderness and sweetness in the past, now the soul has passed away, and heaven and man are separated forever. Baoxing was heartbroken.
When people are around, he just feels normal.
Now that she is gone, good things about her have emerged one after another, which makes people feel sour and painful.
Only now did Baoxing realize that he had always liked Yuzhu.
Unfortunately……
He never found out.
He thought he only felt pity and owed Yuzhu.
Little did he know that his heart was already slowly approaching her.
He didn't notice the silent emotion of moistening things at all.
It wasn't until she was gone that he realized how painful it was to lose her.
What's more, Yuzhu died to save him.
She didn't have to die at all.
The death is unclear and incomprehensible.
Baoxing felt aggrieved for her.
He knelt beside the bed, feeling confused and unable to explain what it felt like.
Only Guo Ning's low cry could faintly reach his ears.
After a long time, Guo Ning stopped crying, stood up, and walked out.
"Empress, where are you going?" Xiu'er hurriedly followed.
Guo Ning went to the Chengqian Hall and asked to see the Holy One to plead guilty.
Zhao Yuanjing frowned when he learned the news of Yuzhu's death.
Although Yuzhu was a slave, she had a very good relationship with Dai'er. When she left like this, Dai'er didn't know how sad she felt.
He put down his pen, glanced at Guo Ning who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Guo Ning, I shouldn't have kept you in the palace these past few years. It has not only delayed you, but also harmed others."
Guo Ning kowtowed, with his forehead on the ground, and whispered: "I was disrespectful to the Queen and even harmed Miss Yuzhu. I am guilty and I beg the Emperor to punish me."
"For the sake of a eunuch, I broke up with my sister and lost a life. Do you think it's worth it?" Zhao Yuanjing asked.
Guo Ning choked and said, "I know I was wrong, and I just want to die."
"Is death easy?" Zhao Yuanjing asked, "If the Queen hadn't taken care of you these past few years, would you have been able to live a safe and carefree life? Those knives and arrows outside are poisonous, and they can't touch anything. When it comes to you, it’s all blocked by the Queen’s wall.”
Guo Ning lowered his head and remained silent.
"When the queen was seriously ill, she couldn't drink even a drop of water every day. She kept vomiting when she smelled the medicine, and all the bitter water came out. You, a so-called sister, have you ever taken a look?" Zhao Yuanjing said, "I kept you because I wanted to , you can accompany the queen, talk to her, and relieve your boredom. Otherwise, why do you think I should keep you as a concubine who is obsessed with the eunuch? "
Guo Ning cried silently.
She remembered that when she was still a concubine in the East Palace, she was so bullied by Chen Xueyan and Lin Yueniang that she couldn't hold her head up, and she didn't even have a few decent meals every day.
The Queen was still a little cook in the kitchen at that time, and the meals given to her were always the best.
She always thought that she had shown kindness to the Queen. Little did she know that the Queen had been taking care of her since the first meeting in the East Palace.
