Chapter 1180: Don’t Waste Time
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why did you suddenly summon me back?” Shao Zhongxi asked, puzzled.
“Before my father passed away, he made his guards temporarily recognize me as their master. In the future, when 1 no longer have any more responsibilities, I will give these guards to whoever has that sword.” Empress Dowager Yunzi said.
Shao Zhongxi was also stunned.
Fate knew how to make its entrance.
Empress Dowager Yunzi smiled again. “The Crown Prince’s talent is far above ours. You have not let down my father.”
Shao Zhongxi had been taught by the Defender General, so he was moved by his words. “Do you not intend to rule over Da Ling any longer?” he asked.
Empress Dowager Yunzi smiled. “It seems like you don’t know the full plan. The Emperor has already agreed with me. He will abdicate in at most a year and let the Crown Prince take the throne.
“According to the Emperor, he had already told the Crown Prince and Jiang Yue. Since that’s the case, I’ll have to step down eventually. 1 believe that once the Crown Prince takes the throne, no one will dare to bully Da Ling.
“This was my father’s lifelong dream. It was also the dream of his ancestors. At the same time, it is the wish of all the Emperors before him. Originally, there was one more thing that I was worried about. but it’s all in the past. so
there should be nothing for me to worry about.
“Since that’s the case, the only thing I have to do is pass over my cloud guards to the person in charge… Actually… There is one more thing. That one does not matter.”
There was one more thing.
This matter was naturally stated clearly in the first letter she received. It said that her eldest son Emperor Hao would fall unconscious on April 15th and pass away on June 15th at the Clear Dragon Hall. Now, not only had April 15th passed, but it was already June 22nd.
Even if her eldest son had such a fate, someone must have broken it.
Shao Zhongxi didn’t know about the letter, so he didn’t know what Empress Dowager Yunzi was referring to.
Even if he asked, Empress Dowager Yunzi wouldn’t say anything, so he didn’t ask.
Empress Dowager Yunzi slowly took another sip of tea before continuing with a smile.
“Later, tell the Crown Prince that the three thousand cloud guards will head to
Xinyuan County to work for him.”
“Yes.” Shao Zhongxi accepted the order.
“Alright, I’m tired. You may leave.” Empress Dowager Yunzi put down the tea.
“I’ll take my leave,” Shao Zhongxi understood.
Only after Shao Zhongxi left did Empress Dowager Yunzi slowly lean back, looking exhausted and relieved.
She was getting really old.
Fortunately, the heavens had blessed Da Ling, and Da Ling had a reliable successor.
She had already told her eldest son that she would find another monastery and devote herself to Buddhism. She would only see her eldest son once a year at most. Her eldest son did not agree, but he could not stand her insistence. In the end, he accepted her choice with teary eyes.
She wanted to atone for her sins.
There was too much blood on her hands. Even her youngest son’s death was because of her. She could not redeem herself, but she would do her best.
After leaving the palace, Shao Zhongxi returned to Quanping Inn.
Shao Zhongxi stayed there for a day before he set off to return to Locust Village.
Finally, Shao Zhongxi returned. It just so happened that Xue Yan was practicing martial arts in the old house, and Jiang Yue was also there. Xue Yan and Jiang Yue listened to the words that Empress Dowager Yunzi had asked him to convey.
Xue Yan and Jiang Yue looked at each other.
Previously, they had guessed that Empress Dowager Yunzi would find a new master for the cloud guards in this life so that the cloud guards would not have the same fate in the past. However, they did not expect that when the Defender General handed the Cloud Guards over to Empress Dowager Yunzi, he would leave such an order to make whoever holds the sword their master..
