Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Prince Yi saw that Prince Qing died, his eyes widened in shock. Prince Yi did not believe that Prince Qing would actually kill himself. After pleading for his life as a child and killing himself, Emperor Hao would definitely feel guilty towards him, so naturally, he would be fine.

However, the two palace maids kneeling not far away might not have the same fate.

This was because Prince Qing actually brought two palace maids with him. This was quite strange. Normally, wouldn’t it only be he and his mother leaving? Even if his health wasn’t good, it wasn’t like he couldn’t find someone to serve him outside the palace. In order to prevent these two palace maids from being captured alive and accidentally spilling more secrets, he had to somehow tie these two maids to him.

Coincidentally, Prince Qing was also dead. No one knew that he was the one who asked Prince Qing to bring these two palace maids with him. Prince Yi gave the two palace maids a look, telling them to quickly take poison and commit suicide.

These warriors would always carry out their master’s orders.

The two palace maids did not even think before taking out the medicinal powder and swallowing it. They immediately spat out white foam at the mouth and died from the poison.

Empress Dowager Yunzi had just raised her hand to wipe her tears and saw the two palace maids foaming when she looked down. They had rushed out of the palace and brought two palace maids with them. It was obvious that something was wrong, but before she could look over, the two palace maids had already swallowed poison and died. After she saw it, she immediately turned sharply to Prince Yi, who was still crying bitterly on Consort Yi.

She remembered that these two palace maids had always been by Prince Yi’s side.

Prince Yi was quite smart and couldn’t be compared to an ordinary child. Could he be involved in the Ji family’s matters?

Emperor Hao was still extremely sad because of his brother’ death. With the sudden deaths of the maids, his attention changed to Prince Yi.

At this moment, Prince Yi’s body was even weaker because of his grief. It was obvious that he didn’t have long to live. Moreover, none of the evidence in his hands pointed to Prince Yi.

“F-father…” Prince Yi looked at him with tears all over his face. He cried so hard that he was out of breath. “S-she… She’s not breathing. She…”

It was as if he was going to die if he finished the sentence.

Emperor Hao felt like he owed it to his brother to give this fragile child a second chance at life. Also, this child was too pitiful. He thought that he was

his father.

Also, before his brother died, he also asked him to treat this child well…

Thinking of this, Emperor Hao let out a deep sigh. Then, he said to his mother, “Mother, I can find a good family for him.” Pausing for a moment, he sighed and said, “Everything has been my fault.”

He was an emperor, so he still had the means to make choices. However, no matter how he saw the situation today, he knew that he would never be a

benevolent ruler. Even he himself felt that he was despicable.

Empress Dowager Yunzi also knew that her son had always felt indebted to Prince Yi because of this matter. Moreover, she wasn’t someone who killed the innocent. Since there was no evidence to prove that this child was involved, she naturally wouldn’t do anything to this child.

Empress Dowager Yunzi said, “Then so be it.”

After Prince Yi was taken away, Empress Dowager Yunzi added, “l killed his mother, and he was born with difficulties. He will never forget what I did to his mother. It’s hard to guarantee that he won’t hate us when he grows up and schemes against us. Moreover, the matter with the two palace maids was quite unusual. They must have been guards instead. How about this? While we find a place to settle him down, let’s also send two people to secretly keep an eye on him. If he plans to live life normally, we won’t disturb him. If he looks like he’s scheming something, we can capture him at any time and control him..”
