This was probably the last order Emperor Xia gave in his life. With the determination to die, he sought a way out for the people. However, who would have thought that his decision would ultimately cause the people of Xia Country to live a hellish life?
Instantly, a deathly silence filled his body. King Xia said," This King is tired. My dear ministers, if Marquis Xia Mu wishes to recruit him, you must assist him wholeheartedly. Remember, the government of Xia Country cannot be controlled by other countries.”
No one would have thought that Xia Country would give up resistance at the moment of life and death and open the city gates.
No one hated Emperor Xia. He had been in power for ten years and was a wise ruler in the hearts of the people of Xia Country. He was deeply loved and cared for the people. As such, Marquis Xia Mu, who had been scheming for power, was despised.
Returning to the Moon Cherry Hall, Xia Nian saw the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling in the hall. Seeing her enter, Hua 'er asked," Princess, you must be hungry. I've prepared some snacks."”
Although Xia Nian was pampered, she treated her subordinates very well. She rewarded and punished those who deserved it. She was impartial, so Hua 'er and the others also took good care of her without any complaints.
Silently walking past them, Xia Nian walked towards the bedchamber. She took out all the gold, silver, and jewelry that Emperor Xia had bestowed upon her and packed them up in front of them. "Your master is famous for being mischievous in Xia country. All these years, you've taken great care of me in every possible way. Usually, you would be punished for making a small mistake. I'm sure you must be secretly scolding me for being harsh. Actually, I also want to tell you that you can't be careless in your work and you have to be careful in your words. If he really fell into someone's trap, he would not even know how he died.”
Xia Nian had finished packing up the food as she spoke. She handed the first portion to Hua 'er, but who knew that not only did she not take it, she even started crying." Princess, don't you want Hua' er anymore?”
Xia Nian's heart skipped a beat. She would be lying if she said she wasn't sad. "Hua 'er, can you let me finish?”
Xia Nian no longer referred to herself as this princess, but as me. He treated them as friends and relatives. "I usually spend a lot on food and clothing, so I don't have much saved. Everything you can find is here. Each of you can take a set and see if there is anything else valuable in the Moon Cherry Palace. These bottles and decorations are worth at least a few hundred taels each. It's a pity that you have to take them out of the palace. He looked for any small toys that were convenient to carry and picked out the valuable ones. Keeping them would also benefit future generations.”
This time, when Xia Nian handed it to them again, no one rejected it. "Tomorrow morning, if you can escape, then escape. When you return to your hometown, you can rely on these to live a stable life in your previous life.”
Hua 'er held Xia Nian's hand and said with tears in her eyes," Princess, what about you?”
"Me?" Xia Nian asked, but her smile was charming." Hua 'er, have you forgotten that my surname is Xia?!"”
She thought that they could understand, but perhaps they could hear the helplessness in Xia Nian's heart. They hugged each other and cried as if they were crying.
Dong Xiang 'er tugged at the corner of Xia Nian's shirt and looked at her pitifully." Xiang' er will look for Mrs. Dong later, understand?"”
Dong Xiang 'er pouted and said to Xia Nian," Xiang' er, don't! Xiang 'er wants to be with the princess!"
Hua 'er and the others were coaxed to pack their clothes. Xia Nian put the remaining pieces of soft clothes into her purse and hid them in a hidden place. In the dark night, Xia Nian's heart was extremely calm and unperturbed.
She walked to the study alone and lit the candle with a torch. With the help of the dim light, Xia Nian dipped the tip of her pen in ink and wrote on the white wall:
The flames of war spread to the sky, and it was difficult to say goodbye. Where was the country broken and the family? However, after the storm, it came back again, but it would last for thousands of generations!
