"No, my father just wants to teach Ya'er's brothers and sisters a lesson."
"Well..." Rong Ya paused, licked his dry lips and said, "Father, don't be angry. I don't like to see my father angry."
"Father is not angry...it's better to be Ya'er, who understands father's thoughts best."
"Father, will my son not live long?"
"Nonsense!" The Emperor frowned, "Ya'er can live, and live a long time!"
"Father, you said you shouldn't lie as a human being, but why did you lie to Ya'er?"
"A'er..."
"I don't have long to live, I know it..." He stretched out his already thin arm and pointed into the distance, "Look, someone came to pick up my son and said he would take him away..."
"Who said that!? Don't listen, Rong Ya will not leave, he will stay by his father's side for the rest of his life."
"Father..."
"Um?"
"Can you promise me something?"
"What?"
"My son, I feel so uncomfortable...I feel so uncomfortable. Please forgive me, Father."
"..." The emperor stopped talking. He knew exactly what Rong Ya meant by "fulfilment".
Jin Kou Kou turned her head, neither looking nor listening. Rong Ya's behavior now was just like that of Xiao Nai back then.
Rong Jin sighed, took Jin Kou Kou's shoulders, held her head down and pushed her into his arms.
"Father... I like my father the most. I want to be as capable as my father in the future, but... I seem to be unable to do what I want..."
"Don't talk such nonsense! Ya'er will live long and live a long time..." When the emperor said this, he found that his voice was trembling uncontrollably.
He was too tired and the pain was too painful...
There was a tear in the corner of Rong Ya's eyes, and he touched the emperor's hand, "Father... I am in pain and uncomfortable... Father..."
"Be good..." The emperor closed his eyes and agreed to Rong Ya's last condition, "Okay... Father, I promise you..."
It was a big hand that was not old but had traces of time. In the past, when Rong Ya was still well, he used his big hand to hold his little hand, but now...
He put his hand on Rong Ya's face, blocking all his breathing...
The emperor didn't look at it, but looked into the distance. With a push of his palm, the little body tossed on the bed a few times and then stopped moving.
The emperor withdrew his hand. He didn't want to see the last scene.
"His Majesty……"
"Xuan!"
"In the 20th year of Emperor Ning, on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the sixteenth prince Rong Ya passed away!"
……………………………………………………
Emperor Ning's 20th year was really a difficult hurdle.
Not long after the funeral of the Ninth Prince, the funerals of the Sixteenth Prince followed one after another.
For some reason, Rong Ya's voice and smile always appeared in Jin Kou Kou's dreams, superimposed with Xiao Nai's two faces.
She fully understood the emperor's mood, the mood of killing his dearest person with his own hands, and she... she also personally took the life of her own brother in this way...
She was dirty, and she was so dirty that she no longer wanted to see her.
The person she killed for the first time in her life was her brother who held her hand and asked her to kill him.
There are countless helplessness in life, so helpless that people can't do anything about it, but... she also deeply understands that things have happened, no matter how much she regrets...
