Chapter 206: Zhao Tai and Su Lian commit suicide for love; Zhen Huan's reminder

Zhao Yitai appeared in time and kicked the medicine bowl to pieces. He looked at Su Lian and said, "Are you giving up now?"

Su Lian swallowed the abortion medicine in her mouth, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "My life is not worth it. I have no heart, don't you know?"

Zhao Yita hugged her and prevented Yu Hu and the others from taking Su Lian away.

Yu Hu had no choice but to lock them in the palace and go to see the emperor himself.

In the Yangxin Palace, after listening to Yu Hu's report, Hongli was furious: "Kill them all!"

Yu Hu bowed slightly and left with the imperial guards.

When he opened the door again, he saw two corpses. Zhao Yita was holding Su Lian and they committed suicide together.

Yu Hu ordered his men to separate the two men, and simply wrapped them in straw mats and threw them into a mass grave.

In Yongshou Palace, Wei Yanwan showed no expression when she heard the news of Su Lian's suicide. It was her own fault. It was Wei Yanwan who told Zhao Yitai the news of Su Lian's pregnancy and Hongli's attitude.

She bet that Zhao Yita would definitely go to save Su Lian, and it turned out that her bet was right. Hongli hated being betrayed the most, and Su Lian had cheated on him.

So the end of both of them is bound to be death.

Wei Yanwan patted Jingxuan until she fell asleep before she got up and went to the main hall.

The spring cicada has brought up the bird's nest.

"Master, the bird's nest is ready. Please use it first."

Wei Yanwan nodded, took a sip, and asked, "Isn't it usually Snow Swallow? Why is it White Swallow today?"

Chunchan said, "This was sent by the Imperial Household Department. Xueyan needs to use it for the Emperor first."

Wei Yanwan put down the bowl and said, "Why should we care about him when he is asking for trouble?"

Chunchan's face changed. She knew that Wei Yanwan was talking about the emperor.

"Master, please be careful with your words. The Emperor is most averse to such things. You must hold back and stop talking."

Wei Yanwan nodded: "I understand."

On the fifth and seventeenth days of October in the fourteenth year of the Qianlong reign, Emperor Qianlong Hongli issued two edicts, outlining the reasons for his intention to tour Jiangnan in the sixteenth year. These edicts generally included four points:

First, officials from Jiangsu and Zhejiang represented the military, civilians and gentry to respectfully invite the emperor to visit.

Secondly, the Grand Secretaries and Nine Ministers cited the classics and history as well as the example of Emperor Kangxi’s southern tour and suggested that his request be granted.

Third, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are vast and densely populated, so we should go there to investigate the people's conditions, military affairs, and inquire about their sufferings.

Fourth, respectfully serve your mother and visit famous places to show your filial piety.

Cining Palace

Zhen Huan asked Ruyi, "It seems that you will soon call me Empress Dowager."

Ruyi replied, "I still say the same thing now. I have no interest in the position of empress."

"Yes, this position of empress was given to you by the emperor himself."

Ruyi asked, "Have you ever thought of becoming the late emperor's empress?"

Zhen Huan thought for a moment and said, "If I say I haven't thought about it, you won't believe me, but I'm not obsessed with the position of Queen."

"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."

Ruyi nodded in agreement.

"I'll remind you again, a king's heart is the hardest thing to obtain in this world. Are you...really ready?"

"The emperor didn't pursue the matter regarding Concubine Yi's child because he knew he was wrong. But Ruyi is, after all, an heir of the royal family."

Ruyi: "If she hadn't done those things, she would have been able to keep the child."

Zhen Huan said, "I want you to help Shupin. Concubine Jin told her about the pregnancy medicine. I think she must have a knot in her heart. Please help me to persuade her.

She is still young, so it is not difficult for her to be happy.”

Ruyi: "I have already tried to persuade her, but she is unwilling in her heart and needs time to accept it. Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely help her."
