Chapter 3393 How Joyful Is Life and How Painful Is Death

Yun Dai asked Si Huanian: "How are the injuries of Xiao Er and Ming Cheng?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, Your Highness's injuries are stable, but he will need to recover for a while. Mingcheng is not seriously ill either."

"How did Yan'er deal with them?"

"The Second Highness was imprisoned in Dali Temple Prison, and Mingcheng was handed over to the Marquis Mansion. But..."

"But what?"

"Your Majesty does not allow me to tell the Queen Mother about this matter."

"Tell me, there is nothing to hide. If you don't tell me, won't I be able to find out? From now on, if you stay in Northern Qi, you will be an official of Northern Qi. You don't have to pay attention to what the Emperor of Zhou says."

Si Huanian smiled and said, "Yes, that's what I said."

"hurry up."

"His Majesty ordered people to take Mingcheng back to the Hou Mansion. That night, a family banquet was held in the Hou Mansion. The next morning, the servants came into the house to wait on him and found that... Mingcheng was dead."

"died?"

"Yes, it should be poisoning." Sihua said youngly, "Mr. Ming and Er Ye went to find Mingxuan, only to find that... Mingxuan hung herself by a rope on the bedside and hanged herself."

Yun Dai was stunned.

"Is he dead?" Zhao Yuanjing asked with a frown.

"They are all dead." Si Huanian sighed, "The emperor sent his ministers to the Hou Mansion. According to the ministers' opinion, Mingxuan should have poisoned Mingcheng first and then returned to his room and hanged himself. Because the time of their death was different. Not far."

Yun Dai was stunned.

Mingxuan is too strong.

Back then she poisoned King Lu with her own hands, and now she killed her own son and then committed suicide.

Although they had known for a long time that Mingxuan's mood was abnormal and she fell into a state of depression, no one expected that she would reach such a tragic point.

Yun Dai couldn't help but began to wonder if she had done something wrong.

Maybe she shouldn't leave Mingcheng to the Hou Mansion.

"Dai'er." Zhao Yuanjing gently held her shoulders and whispered, "With the crime Mingcheng committed, he will definitely die if he is handed over to the court."

Si Huanian added: "The Queen Mother does not need to worry about this. Lord Ming said that Mingcheng's sins are so serious that death is not a pity. As for Mingxuan, instead of enduring torture all day long, it is better to go and be liberated."

It can be said that from the day King Lu rebelled, Mingxuan's entire life was ruined.

Over the years, she has been stuck in a depressed mood and has been unable to extricate herself. Even though there are so many people around her who care about her, she has never been able to get out.

She originally thought that her son would be the light that saved her, but his son gave her a fatal blow.

She felt that living was boring.

"Oh, by the way," Si Huanian rummaged through his purse, took out a crumpled piece of paper and handed it over, "I found this next to Ming Xuan. Lord Ming specially ordered me to bring it to the Queen Mother. "

Yun Dai took the paper, unfolded it, and saw a line of scrawled words on it——

How happy is life, how painful is death, it is better to go back.

Just twelve words, but I don’t know how much sadness and despair it contains.

Yun Dai looked at it for a long time, tears falling onto the paper.

"Mingxuan has been living in gloom for the past twenty years, and I think it has affected Mingcheng to a greater or lesser extent." Zhao Yuanjing took the note and gently tore it into pieces, "This is indeed a relief for her. "

"If my uncle and aunt knew, I don't know how sad they would be."

Fortunately, they were gone and could not see this tragic scene.

"Don't think so much." Zhao Yuanjing held her hand.

At this time, Eunuch Zhu Nan hurried over and said, "Your Highness, Master Cheng, please see me!"

"Which Mr. Cheng?"

"The head of the Cheng family, Cheng Hanlin." Eunuch Zhu Nan pointed to his face, "The one with a bruised nose and swollen face is most likely here to complain to Your Highness."
