The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 340 Emperor Taizong Passes Away

Dong Sicheng waved the visitor away, and after the visitor left, he immediately flew into a rage and said angrily, "Qin Yun, this idiot, must have said something to provoke the emperor, which made the emperor's condition worse. He is really a hopeless case, and he actually wants to get involved in the throne. It's really unbelievable. I really don't understand, is he really stupid, or is he pretending to be stupid?"

"Master, calm down."

The old butler who had been waiting beside him hurried forward and carefully advised: "The Eighth Prince is very smart. He must have his own plan for doing this."

Dong Sicheng raised his deep eyes slightly, glanced at the housekeeper sharply, and said coldly: "Plan? What do you think is the Eighth Prince's plan for doing this?"

The housekeeper's heart tightened, and he quickly said respectfully: "This... I am stupid and dare not speculate on the Eighth Prince's intentions. Maybe he has his own difficulties and plans. We should be more understanding and patient."

Dong Sicheng snorted coldly, "If you were the Eighth Prince, would you do this? What good would it do him to anger his own father to death?"

Anyone with a little bit of common sense would not do such a stupid thing, but Qin Yun made such a low-level mistake.

The butler was terrified, but did not dare to respond. He could only lower his head silently, praying in his heart that Dong Sicheng would calm down his anger and no longer take it out on him.

"Waste, all of you are fucking waste, Qin Feng is waste, you are also waste, how could I have two waste nephews like you..."

The more Dong Sicheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but start cursing, and in the end even Qin Feng was in trouble as well.

The atmosphere in the whole room became extremely depressing, as if even the air had frozen.

The butler could only stand by silently, allowing the anger to spread, but was unable to make any response.

When Dong Sicheng scolded Qin Yun, it was like an uncle scolding his nephew, so he could scold him however he wanted.

If the butler dared to call the two princes useless in front of Dong Sicheng, he would be slapping him in the face.

After venting his anger, Dong Sicheng fell into a brief silence. His brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important.

After a long time, he slowly spoke, his voice revealing an unquestionable majesty: "Go, call the eldest son back. Tell him that I have something important to discuss with him."

Upon hearing this, the butler finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and accepted the order before leaving.

The news that the emperor was critically ill spread quickly, and for a moment, the entire capital was in turmoil.

As noon approached, princes from all over the country rushed back and arrived at the Yangxin Palace without any obstruction.

In the small square in front of the Government Affairs Hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, all civil and military officials above the third rank had already gathered together. They were in groups of three or five, discussing something carefully.

Even the long-lost champion Hou Lizhen showed up at this moment. His appearance was unexpected and made the situation even more confusing.

Inside the Yangxin Hall.

Qin Hao looked solemn as he brought several younger brothers to the Emperor Taizong's dragon bed. He turned to Pharmacist Sun and said, "Dr. Sun, it's time. Please start!"

Pharmacist Sun nodded slightly, without any hesitation, he immediately began to perform acupuncture. His hands fluttered like butterflies flying through flowers, and the silver needles in his hands seemed to have life, piercing the various acupuncture points of Emperor Taizong's body accurately and quickly.

After a while, Emperor Taizong's eyes, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened. His eyes were a little blurry, but when he saw his sons, a faint smile appeared on his face. He spoke with difficulty, his voice trembling and weak: "My sons, you are all back. Father... Father is very happy."

Upon hearing this, the princes felt a pang of sadness in their hearts and burst into tears. Although they all tried to remain strong in front of their father, they could no longer control their inner emotions at this moment.

Although the youngest, Lao Jiu, was only two years old, he seemed to be able to sense the atmosphere around him. He blinked his big eyes and looked at everything in front of him curiously.

"Cough! Cough!"

Emperor Taizong was seriously ill and his breath was weak, but he still struggled to speak, with intermittent gasps between his words: "Don't cry, all of you, just listen to me. I have decided to hand over the vast territory of Daxia to your brother Qin Hao. When he ascends the throne in the future, you must work together to assist the new emperor. You must not have any other thoughts, collude with foreign enemies, and ruin my Qin family's foundation. Remember, remember!"

After saying that, he looked at the brothers Qin Feng and Qin Yun thoughtfully. His eyes seemed to contain a deep warning, and also seemed to be a kind reminder to Qin Hao.

Several princes bowed their heads to express their admiration and support for Qin Hao, and vowed to protect the Qin family's kingdom and live up to his trust.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Taizong showed a relieved smile on his face, and his heavy eyes slowly closed, as if he had finally put down the burden in his heart.

Qin Hao tightly grasped his dry hand and said quickly: "Father, don't worry! My Qin family's kingdom will always be named Qin and will never fall into the hands of outsiders. I swear that I will take good care of my brothers and sisters and protect them throughout their lives. I will never let outsiders bully them. If I break my promise, I will be struck by lightning."

Qin Hao saw this and knew that his time was up. He quickly grasped the hands that were like dead branches and said firmly and eagerly, "Father, please rest assured! The Qin family will always be named Qin and will never fall into the hands of outsiders. I swear, I will do my best to take care of my brothers and sisters, protect them well, and never allow anyone to bully them."

"Okay..." Emperor Taizong used up his last bit of strength to utter one word, and then he could no longer say anything more. His eyes were heavy and he wanted to open them, wanting to take another look at his children, but this time, those eyes that were once full of majesty and wisdom could no longer be opened.

His hand, which once controlled the country and made strategic plans, now hung down helplessly. With a relieved smile on his face, he passed away peacefully to another world.

Pharmacist Sun hurried forward and carefully removed the silver needle inserted into Emperor Taizong's body.

After a careful inspection, his expression gradually became solemn. He slowly turned around and said to Qin Hao who was standing beside him in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the emperor passed away peacefully. You don't have to be too sad. He will live a better life in the other world."

When the princes heard this sudden bad news, they burst into tears and were immersed in endless sorrow.

Qin Hao looked at this scene, his heart filled with endless grief and sorrow, but he knew that now was not the time to be sad, he had to cheer up, for the sake of the Qin family's kingdom and for his brothers and sisters, he had to shoulder this heavy responsibility.
