Gu Chengyu turned to leave the bedchamber, suddenly there was a sound behind him, "Jinyu! No matter what happens in the future, please make sure to protect Ye's life. Will you promise me?"
The Emperor looked at Gu Chengyu's thin back and asked nervously.
Gu Chengyu nodded, "I promise!"
"Good, I am satisfied!" The Emperor's face revealed a relieved smile. As long as Gu Chengyu promised, he knew Gu Chengyu would fulfill it.
"Even if you replace me, I will not blame you! As long as you protect Ye's life and leave a legacy for me, I can rest in peace in the afterlife."
The Emperor said softly, then he took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, "Someone, grind ink for me!"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Gu just instructed that you need to rest. You cannot get up!" A eunuch quickly entered the inner chamber, having just been transferred from the Empress Dowager's Palace to serve here.
