Chapter 885: It's You Again

After learning about Murong Jie's return, everyone came. Murong Jie didn't want to see him at first, but now that he's back, he must see him.

There is nothing to say, and everyone does not want to comfort, or say empty words, such as Zian will come back, she will be fine.

Everyone knew in their hearts that these words had no meaning.

Even if Zi'an escaped from Chu Jing's poisonous hand, how can he cure the same fate Gu's poison?

Accompanied by his mother, the empress dowager, the little emperor also came.

The child under the age of fifteen looks very similar to his father, but he is a bit more refined than his father. He has this temperament at a young age. He has read a lot of books.

On the day he ascended the throne, he said in the court that he would be a good emperor like the regent.

A minister secretly reminded that the regent is not the emperor, but the little emperor glared, "I say yes, it is."

No one refuted, and the thirteen-year-old child had a natural royal aura when he sat there.

When the emperor saw Murong Jie, he knelt down and kowtowed. In the past, whether this emperor was in the court hall or facing first-rank ministers in the meeting hall, he always put on a young and mature appearance, even in front of his mother, the empress dowager. Always quiet and taciturn.

But seeing Murong Jie, after kneeling down, he cried like a tearful man.

When a child becomes emperor, even though he has the support of the King of Eastern Guangdong and the Grand Master Yuan, only he knows how much pressure he has withstood.

Murong Jie helped him up, wiped away his tears, and said: "You are the emperor, you are a grown-up, don't cry like a child."

"My nephew misses the emperor's uncle, and my nephew feels uncomfortable." After all, the emperor is only a half-grown child.

The empress dowager looked sad and turned her head to wipe away her tears.

The two uncles and nephews talked in the study for about an hour. When the emperor came out, he pulled Murong Jie's sleeve like a child and said, "Uncle Huang, don't leave in the future."

Murong Jie smiled, this smile was very sad, "I don't know, let's see."

It is almost summer now, and the weather is gradually getting hotter, but the Empress Dowager feels that there is a bleak aura about Murong Jie.

At his age, even if he is not in fresh clothes and angry horses, he should still be in high spirits. This lifeless bleakness can only be seen in the elderly.

The empress dowager felt uncomfortable when she thought of Zi'an. She had done many wrong things, and Zi'an scolded her, which woke her up and made her rational.

She only hoped that the wrong things she did back then were not the cause of Zian's disappearance.

When she was leaving, she reached the door and said to the emperor: "You wait for Aijia for a while, and Aijia goes to have a word with your uncle."

The emperor thought she was going to comfort Murong Jie, so he said: "Okay, I will wait for the queen mother outside."

The Empress Dowager walked back, Murong Jie was still standing in front of the porch watching the falling flowers, she took a deep breath and walked up, "My lord, the Ai family has something to say to you."

Murong Jie frowned slightly, "I probably know what the queen mother wants to say, but there is no need to say it."

The empress dowager shook her head, "No, Aijia didn't mean to persuade the prince to relax. Does the prince still remember the case in the outskirts of the city? The case where the couple died together."

Murong Jie turned his face slowly, his eyes turned cold, "Of course I remember."

That case caused Zian to have nightmares for many days.

Seeing his cold gaze, the empress dowager felt a little trembling in her heart. She lowered her hands and tightly clenched her fists in her wide sleeves, suppressing the fear in her heart, and said guiltily: "That case was ordered by Concubine Yi. People did it, before that case, I took Zian's hair and burned it together with the charm given by Concubine Yigui, it was a spell from Xianbei."

Murong Jie was furious, "Why did you do this?"

The empress dowager burst into tears, "I'm sorry, I have no choice but to mourn my family."

"Understood? How many times have you been forced? Why is it like this every time, you hurt someone and then come out and say sorry, how you are forced to do so, what Zi'an has done for your mother and son, you know in your heart, she keeps going back and forth Forgive you again and again, but you hurt her again and again."

The empress dowager was so scolded that she couldn't bear it, and kept crying and saying sorry.

Murong Jie suppressed the fury in his heart, "What will happen to this spell?"

The Empress Dowager sobbed and said: "At that time, Concubine Yigui said that if this spell takes effect, it will cast a shadow on the person affected by the spell. Once it touches an inducement, such as seeing someone die, seeing the situation that day, the person will be killed." will collapse, and may commit suicide in the end, unless this person is psychologically strong and can withstand the pull of the spell."

Murong Jie's whole body was icy cold, fury was rolling in his heart, he wished he could kill the woman in front of him with one palm.

At that time, many people died on Miaojiang Mountain. If the dead people were an inducement, then how could Zian resist the pull of the spell?

I also heard from Wu Yanzu that Zi'an started to have nightmares again when he was on the mountain, which proved that symptoms had already appeared.

If Zi'an died from a spell, then the person who killed Zi'an was the woman in front of him who had received many favors from Zi'an.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Get out, don't appear in front of this king again."

The empress dowager looked at his furious face, unable to say even the sorry that came to her lips, and she went away with tears in her eyes.

Murong Jie didn't know how to get back to the room. In the past two years, she always had a little hope in her heart, that is, Zian had a scar in her hand, and so many of Chu Jing's people died. She looked at Chu Jing, Maybe there is still a possibility of survival.

But if the biggest enemy is herself, how can she resist?

Sitting on the chair that Zian used to sit on before, he just felt that his heart was dead, and even breathing was meaningless.

He covered his face with his hands, and tears were seeping between his fingers. It has been more than two years since Zian's accident happened, and he has not shed a single tear. He cannot give up on his own.

But at this moment, he felt that his hard work was all self-deception.

Nothing is more terrifying than despair.

Death is very domineering, but what is more domineering than death is that you don't know how she died. Zian's disappearance has become a mystery. He wants to solve it, but he can't solve it, and he can't find her back.

He searched for two years, trying to find evidence that she was still alive.

Returning to Beijing, all his hopes were extinguished.

Zi An!

He shouted this name frantically in his heart. Over the years, he always talked to the air like a fool, pretending that he was still by his side.

The door was gently pushed open, and Mammy walked in cautiously.

But he didn't speak, just stood aside quietly.

Murong Jie restrained his expression and wanted her to go out.

When he raised his head, Mammy suddenly said, "My lord, let this servant stay here quietly for a while, this servant has been looking forward to having someone in this room for the past two years."

Her voice was full of tears, and the sadness was so thick that it couldn't be melted away.

Murong Jie's heart seemed to be hit all of a sudden, the pain was unstoppable!
