Deep Love Wandering like the Endless Wind

"Daisy, I have nothing else to give you. This is the dowry my mother gave me. After I die, you should immediately leave the palace and sell it. Ahem... Go and live your own life," I said while coughing violently.

Daisy cried in my arms, "Miss, I won't leave here. Please don't die, okay?"

"Daisy, you must listen to me. You're my maid. If I die, Elaine won't let you go!"

I held Daisy's hand tightly, "Daisy, do you want me to kneel down and beg you?"

The silly girl panicked and carefully put away the hairpin I handed her, "Miss, I will listen to you. I will listen to everything you say."

Three days later.

It was not only the first New Year's Day of the new dynasty, but also the joyous day when Clyde married the new empress Elaine.

Even though the wedding was rushed, it was well-prepared. The entire palace was decorated with lights and colors, very festive.

In the past, Clyde always accompanied me during New Year's Eve, taking me to the streets to guess riddles and releasing lanterns in the river.

But this year, he was with someone else.

I struggled to get up and. With Daisy's help, made my way to the kitchen.

Daisy did most of the work, and I could only sit in the wheelchair and watch.

I casually put a small gold nugget into one of the dumplings, then cooked the pile of dumplings.

In just a few movements, I was already sweating on my forehead.

The poison in my bones was really unbearable.

"Miss, try one," Daisy smiled.

"Okay, let's eat together." I only ate one and didn't get the gold nugget.

Daisy ate several, but still didn't get any.

It seemed that Clyde would be the lucky one this year, if he came to the Cold Palace.

But how could he come tonight, on his wedding night with the new empress?

I laughed at myself.

On the way back to the Cold Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs all had smiles on their faces.

"His Majesty and Her Highness got married today. The whole world is celebrating for it, and a general amnesty is granted. My father, who had committed a crime before, was also released from prison."

"Yes, the new empress is really beautiful, much more gentle and considerate than the previous one, who played with swords and spears!"

Daisy clenched her small fists and said, "Miss, I must teach them a lesson! They forgot that you helped the emperor get the throne!"

"Let's go back to the Cold Palace," I sighed.

After returning to the Cold Palace, Daisy placed the bowl of dumplings on the only table.

The auspicious time soon arrived. Clyde married the new queen in a big way. Just as they entered the hall and received the courtiers' greetings, I spewed a mouthful of blood.

"Miss, hang in there . I'll go find His Majesty..." Daisy knelt beside me, crying and pleading.

I shook my head. "He won't come. You...listen to me. When I die, you must leave quickly. You hear me?"

"Yes, there's a dog hole at the north gate. Climb out from there, and I'll be outside the palace. Miss, don't worry." Daisy cried so hard that she couldn't catch her breath.

I looked at the round moon outside the window and smiled foolishly. The poisonous blood flowed down my eyes.

I seemed to see Clyde's figure on that moon.

He reached out his hand to me and smiled, "Lily, when I ascend the throne, you will be my only empress. We will rule the country together and never be separated."

But his vows and deep love were ultimately like a fleeting wind, disappearing from my world after spinning.

"Miss! Miss!"

No matter how Daisy shouted, I eventually closed my eyes and stopped breathing.

The bowl of dumplings on the table went from scorching hot to ice cold, but no one paid any attention to it.
