Chapter 176 - The Death
Chapter 176 - The Death
"Stay at this palace and deal with consort Liang's problem, please. Let me deal with consort Yin problem," Jin Yu is kneeling in front of his wife and literally begging her to stay back. He really does not want her to catch the dreadful diseases.
"I will do as you said. I love you and our little bean, so I will listen to you. Deal consort Yin while I will take care of Consort Yin," Ni Qing is clasping his cheek to reassurance him about the whole situation. She needs to take a step back to deal with her husband and let him to take charge on the whole things regardless of the situation. She needs to keep her way to deal with the incident or situation not like the war she used to be.
"Thank you, darling," Jin Yu is looking at her before he kisses her thin crimson red lips. The smell of her body scent makes him reluctant to stop the kiss on the first base. He is hungry to get more from her.
"I will be here and waits for you all my life," Ni Qing is putting her arm on his neck before she kisses his neck.. "Now, you go and deal with the whole situation with your wife number who know which number when you have too many."
Jin Yu is glaring at her with a loving despise look to her for her sarcasm. She is grinning to see him stand up and walk away with his eunuch. Ni Qing is telling Xi Kai to start cook some dumpling for their breakfast with some fish congee. They are expecting some guest for breakfast.
Jin Yu is asking Zhao Yu to send the fastest courier to bring the news to the royal family of Yin about her condition which caught diseases. So, if she can't make it by the end of the day, her family will not feel bitter and blame it to Jin Yu as the emperor.
This time he used his carriage and sit on that while it goes to consort Yin palace with the whole emperor entourage. He is closing his eyes with one of his hands of holding his face. he feels unease with her disease while it means that the crown prince of Liang is getting the same diseases.
It seems Ni Qing plan actually kill two birds with one stone. He just needs to implement a little nudge on the whole plan.
"Zhang, can you make sure to entertain the whole crown prince entourage with anything to occupy their mind? Let them not thinking about the crown prince presence at the moment," Jin Yu is telling his loyal bodyguard to do his plan. He will ask Lin Yue to send his infidelity and proof of him enjoying life in the brothel and his own consort in the palace until she gets the sickness and pass away. He wants them to draft a letter to Liang Kingdom. At least, he will be move from his position as the crown prince. He hears the report of the youngest prince which has an empathy and good heart. He has made it to happen.
They are arriving in the consort Yin palace where everyone is looking grim. They all are wearing a white cloth to cover their nose and mouth while Physician He is wearing the same clothes over her face. he looks worry on his expression when he come and welcome the emperor.
Eunuch Wang is handling over the white clothes and small container with balm on the tray to the emperor.
"What it is?" Jin Yu is asking the physician for the balm next to the cloths. When he opens small jade container and bring it closer on his nose. The smell of fragrant flowery smell pierce through toward his nose. The smell is overpowering and make his nose as got hit with the fragrant.
"Your highness, you need to use the balm on both of your nose before covering it with the cloths. It will help you to divert the rotten smell from Consort Yin bodies." Physician is reporting the emperor about the condition of Consort Yin.
"How is the condition of her?" Jin Yu is asking him about the condition when Eunuch Wang is putting the balm to the emperor and cover his face with the white cloth. He really can't smell anything as the area to get the breathing already cover with the cloths.
"She is in the brink of her death bed. I can't guarantee that she will lives by the end of the day," Physician He is explaining the emperor regarding the condition of the consort Yin.
Jin Yu is going inside her palace toward her bed chamber when the foul odour starts to dominate the air. there is the old lady Ma who always help into the labour in the palace. her face is look pale and bowing to the emperor.
He is sitting near the bed when the eunuch is placing a room divider. He is reaching her hand when Jin Yu can see her gasping for air. he saw it with his own eyes the angel of death tries to take her soul away.
It was not long until Consort Yin is passed away with peace with her hand on Jin Yu hand. He saw her try to take the breath when it starts to fade away. It looks excruciating experience for her from Jin Yu point of view. He feels guilty to use her as one of his pawns for the bigger picture of the Dayu Kingdom people.
Jin Yu was accompanying her into the last breath inside her body before it got suck away and drains from her body. It was terrifying moment for Jin Yu to see someone pass away from the sickness and not war.
Physician He is checking the consort Yin condition before declaring her to be dead. He pronounces her death after checking everything on her body, the old palace maid Ma tries to clean her up and getting ready for the funeral. She is not complaining about the odour smell from her rotten lower body area. No one dares to go closer toward her body due to the smell.
This is the first time for Jin Yu to witness the whole ordeal of someone pass away from the sickness. At least, he was not sitting closer to Consort Yin as restricted by physician He. He is sitting opposite of the bed and looking at consort Yin delusional pain tries to take her away.
Jin Yu is asking her body to be balm perfectly before to be put into the coffin. They will prepare her burial ceremonies after the family member or ambassador from the Yin Kingdom arrives at the Dayu Kingdom. She has to look perfect and not in the bad shape for her family to view her inside the coffin.
Jin Yu is going to the bathroom straight away to clean his body from the whole sickness that might be going into his wife. Even he is not touching her and stay within safe distance from the bed.
The physician and midwife inform him about the last condition of Consort Yin who is pregnant. The baby is coming out because of the disease. As it is still at the young age, they can't save the baby. They are bowing down to Jin Yu for clemency. They did not know that consort Yin already sleeping with so many men out there and only God know the real father of this baby.
This news travel into Ni Qing's ear inside her chamber. As soon as, the emperor back to her side and let out a big relieves of breath.
"Are you fine, your highness?" Ni Qing is serving him a tea to drink and a plate of red bean cake.
"She is pregnant with God knows who the father and her body give out enormous foul outdoor. How are we going to cover this for their brother?" Jin Yu is drinking hot tea to calm his nerves. He can slay a thousand men and kill without even flinched his eyes. however, this is the first time for him to witness such an overwhelmed scene in front of him.
"Are you sure about it?" Ni Qing is looking at him sharply as if she wants to interrogate him.
"What do you mean?" Jin Yu is putting down his teacup after finishing the whole tea.
"I mean that she is not pregnant with your children," Ni Qing is asking him without any restrain which make eunuch Wang want to spit out blood to hear such accusation.
"is something wrong with your head? I spend my time sleeping with you or in my study. When did I have time to consummate with her?" Jin Yu is commenting with her comment about the whole rubbish accusation from her. he is smiling to see his mischievous wife.
