1130: The Return of an Old Friend (38)

The Return of an Old Friend (38)

"What exactly is going on?" Luo Tan was so anxious that she was about to cry. "What's going on, little cousin? Why are you saying such a thing?"1

"Princess Consort has been exhausting her body lately, and she just gave birth to twins. She's bleeding too much…" Old Madam Liu couldn't continue.

"I- I'm afraid I can't make it. Cousin, when you see my parents and brother, tell them that I'm unfilial and can't serve them in their later years."

Luo Tan shook her head vigorously and said, "Little Cousin, don't spout nonsense. You'll get better and reunite with your parents. You'll be unfilial if you say such things. Stop talking, stop talking!" At the end of her sentence, she was almost on the verge of tears.

Shen Miao smiled helplessly and looked at Pei Lang.

Pei Lang looked adrift, and his lips were trembling slightly. He was no longer as calm as before.

"No, you can't die. You must hang in," he said. "I haven't paid you back what I owe you. You have to live a long life and be healthy."

"Mr. Pei, you don't owe me anything anymore. If you really want to repay me, promise me that you will protect my children. I hope they can grow up healthy." She panted with difficulty, as if she had used all her strength. "When you see Xie Jingxing, tell him that I'm sorry and that I can't wait for his return. It's my honor to be his wife…"

"Princess Consort!" Nanny Tao wailed.

"Let me see my children…" she said.

The two midwives wiped the children dry and wrapped them in swaddling clothes before sending them to Shen Miao's side. Nanny Tao said with tears in her eyes, "They're two young princes. They're very healthy."

Shen Miao's gaze landed on the two children. She stretched out her finger with difficulty and traced their eyebrows. She said softly, "When these two children grow up, they will definitely be very good-looking. Xie Jingxing and I have suffered a lot. If the heavens have eyes, they will definitely not give my children a hard life."

Nanny Tao had already begun to wipe her tears.

Luo Tan turned her head away and wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

"I really want to see you two grow up…" Her gaze stopped on the two children with deep love, as if she was looking at someone thousands of miles away through the faces of the two babies.

"I miss you so much…"

Her voice gradually trailed off.

In the tent thousands of miles away, the young general suddenly felt a pain in his heart. The pain spread from his chest to every corner of his body, making him bend down. He held the table and panted heavily.

Gao Yang lifted the curtain and walked in. When he saw this, he was shocked and quickly reached out to take his pulse. After taking his pulse, he asked curiously, "There's nothing wrong. What happened?"

Xie Jingxing frowned and suddenly said, "Attack Xun Yang tomorrow."

"Why so sudden?" Gao Yang was shocked.

"Let's end this quickly." Xie Jingxing turned around and walked out.

…

The Daliang Dynasty occupied Xun Yang, the capital of the State of Qin. At this point, after more than a hundred years, the three countries were unified by the young general, Prince Rui.

History would only remember the victors. Although hundreds of thousands of people had lost their country, if the old emperors were cruel, and the new emperor was benevolent, then the people would eventually follow the new emperor.
