The Fate of Love Zhang Lin
Chap 42: Sad News From the Northern Border!
Destinies
When he was present all the restless humans
Does destiny bring like
Or does fate bring suffering
A man's life is full of mystery
Only fate will answer
All people can only wait
Whether the likes or sorrows are brought
The fact is that fate will play tricks
Playing the deepest heart of a human being

"Hahaha, I'm not a kid you can lie to. My condition is getting worse and it may be my last day with you." general Zhang Ye laughed with words still heard trying to melt the atmosphere.
"Tell my daughter to fulfill her promise of welcoming me to the palace gate when I get to the palace" said General Zhang Ye and regurgitated back in black and thick blood.
"And tell me that I have loved my daughter and my grandchildren so much" General Zhang Ye said in his last breath.
"General.." cried Chu Hongli who was very surprised.
He closed both of General Zhang Ye's eyes with his hands. He covered the entire body of General Zhang Ye with a blanket.
"Good road, general. You are our general whom we love very much. You're the greatest general we've ever had. Rest in peace." Chu Hongli said with tears as the blanket covered General Zhang Ye's face.
"Chu Heng sent word to the palace that the rebels had been destroyed without rest and reported the death of General Zhang Ye" Chu Hongli said slowly.
"Fine" Chu Heng said trying strong.
"Don't forget to prepare the chest for General Zhang Ye's body. We'll take him today to the palace. We will fulfill the general's final wish." Chu Hongli said calmly.
That day the whole army in the barracks was very sad. Their hearts feel broken. They had greatly lost the figure of general Zhang Ye whom they had considered to be their great and authoritative father, brother, teacher, friend and leader.
"General, we will not forget you. Rest in peace. We know you're tired and we know you're happy to be there with your beloved wife. We are here to take good care of the emperor and empress. We promise. Sleep quietly." Chu Heng said as he closed the coffin where General Zhang Ye's body was kept.
All the troops shed their tears. For them the victory of the war this time will bring very deep memories.
Some of the troops went to deliver the body of General Zhang Ye to the palace and the rest were assigned to guard the northern border for security at the northern border.
...*****...
A letter arrived at the palace and was received by the palace gatekeeper.
"Hail your honor. The servant wanted to deliver the letter from the northern border" the palace guard said as he handed the scroll.
Emperor Fang Yi received the letter and read it. He read the first letter and he smiled very happily when he learned that the rebels had been handled well but at the end of the letter he was shocked and very angry when he found out that the mastermind of this rebellion was his younger brother is the prince Fang Tse.
"Why don't you ever give up prince Fang Tse? has this throne completely blinded your eyes and heart." said the furious and sad emperor Fang Yi.
"What's up, your majesty? are you all right?" eunuch Wen said.
"I'm fine eunuch. It's just that I feel like I've failed as a sister. I have made my sister like this, because I am a weak sister. I was unable to help my sister get back on the straight path." said emperor Fang Yi looking very sad and disappointed.
Then he opened the second scroll and read it. He was shocked by the contents of the letter and he subconsciously dropped the scroll. His chest was tight, his body was trembling, his heart was in pain and his tears were dripping down his cheeks.
"General" said emperor Fang Yi limp.
"What's up, your majesty? is there any bad news from the northern border?" eunuch Wen said as he re-appointed the extremely weak body of the emperor.
"I want to go to the eastern palace" said emperor Fang Yi who immediately stood up and went to his wife's residence.
Emperor Fang Yi walked over in a hurry, he wanted to meet his wife. He wanted to comfort his wife.
"The Empress." said softly emperor Fang Yi when he saw his wife who was gathering with his three children.
The emperor sat beside his wife. He held his wife tightly and looked at her with great sadness.
"There is a noble? why is your face so sad? is there anything bad at the northern border" Zhang Lin said softly.
The Emperor only smiled faintly but sadly. Empress Zhang Lin looked at her husband's facial expression and understood what was going on.
"Is that news about general Zhang Ye?" zhang Lin said softly and looked sad.
"Hm" said emperor Fang Yi briefly and gave the scroll.
Zhang Lin took the scroll and read it. Her tears dripped profusely as she read the contents of the letter scroll. She cried loudly to the surprise of her three children.
"Dad.. Father.." shouted Zhang Lin crying very loudly while tightly hugging the scroll of the letter.
The emperor hugged his wife from behind, trying to hold her weeping body very sad.
"Dad.. Fathering.. Why did you leave me? dad why did you leave your daughter?" said Zhang Lin who was crying out in distress.
"Dear, calm yourself. I beg you to calm down." said emperor Fang Yi who was still hugging his wife tightly trying to hold her in a mess.
"Your highness, my noble father. He's gone, your majesty. My father left." said Zhang Lin growing hysterical.
All three of her children were crying and very sad when they saw the condition of her mother who was injured.
"Dad.." said Zhang Lin softly, she held her extremely claustrophobic chest and ended up unconscious in the arms of her husband.
Emperor Fang Yi was shocked when his wife was unconscious. He took his wife to his bed and softly enveloped her.
"Jian, get the palace healer to check on your mother." orders emperor Fang Yi.
"Fang Qiu told eunuch Wen to inform the entire palace of the news of General Zhang Ye's death" the emperor's order Fang Yi.
"Jiantou told the entire palace attendant to prepare a death ceremony for general Zhang Ye." orders emperor Fang Yi.
Her three children left the two of them and immediately did as ordered by emperor Fang Yi.
"Dear, please don't be like this. I beg you to accept all this. I'm sure you're strong." said emperor Fang Yi gently stroking his wife's still unconscious head.
The Emperor only stared silently at his wife with great sadness. He was very worried about his wife's current situation. She had already lost her little daughter and now she also had to lose her father in a very short time. The emperor felt a very deep sadness, why his wife had to feel such a terrible fate like this.
"The father of the emperor, the court physician has come." Jian said.
The palace physician examined the state of empress Zhang Lin and his face looked extremely anxious. Habib Palace looked very sad and helpless.
"How's healer? is the queen okay?" emperor Fang Yi said worriedly.
"I forgive your noble servant. The Queen's condition is very worrying. He should rest in peace and not think too hard." said the palace healer slowly.
"Is the empress often claustrophobic when she cries or is sad?" ask the palace healer slowly.
"Yes. Niang always felt tightness in his chest when crying excessively" said Jian who was very anxious.
"What exactly is a physician?" emperor Fang Yi was curious.
"I forgive your noble servant. Servant deserves to die. Slave negligent of the empress' health." said the frightened palace physician and immediately knelt before the emperor Fang Yi.
"Tell me the truth about the empress' state!" said emperor Fang Yi loudly who began to be annoyed by the attitude of the palace healers.
"Your highness. The empress has been through a lot of bad things that have hurt her. He kept the wound alone in his heart, so that feeling made his health always decline. Moreover, the noble empress has been unconscious for 2 years. It is also a noble disease factor. Noble heart health is unstable and has begun to weaken. Servants are worried that if the noble one continues like this, the noble life will not last until the age of 50. Forgive me. Forgive the noble servant's negligence." said the court physician who continued to prostrate asking for forgiveness.
"You can go. I will not punish you." said emperor Fang Yi softly.
"Jian bring back the palace healers" Emperor Fang Yi said briefly.
The Emperor sat down next to his wife and just stared in sorrow. He did not expect the figure of his wife who looked strong and always protected him and his children turned out to be very weak and helpless.
"Is there so much sadness in your life, dear? why don't you share your sorrow with me? did you know that I am also very afraid of losing you? why do you keep all that hardship and sadness alone?" said emperor Fang Yi clasping Zhang Lin's hands together and bowing his head on Zhang Lin's body.
"I love you. I don't want to lose you. Please be aware. Please don't worry me. I've lost enough of the people I love. I beg you not to come with them to leave me too. Please wake up. I beg you." said the crying emperor Fang Yi as he hugged his wife.
