Chapter 219: Chapter 219: Even in Death, You Are My Main Wife

After Nan Xuan made the decision, he immediately dispatched a guard from the Prince Mansion to report to their Prince.

When Rong Ling arrived, he happened to see Nan Xuan and several guards kneeling with solemn expressions at the foot of the cliff.

His cold gaze moved away from them and landed on the woman not far away. The long dress she wore, the headdress, and the arrow pressing against her chest all indicated that this woman who had fallen to her death was his Princess Consort, Feng Qing.

Thinking about not long ago, when Feng Qing was arrogantly boasting about her horseback riding skills, such a lively and vibrant life was gone in the blink of an eye. Rong Ling couldn’t accept this reality and instinctively shook his head, murmuring, "No, this is not your Princess Consort."

Nan Xuan and others looked up at their Prince, seeing his face full of remorse and pain. It seemed that with the Princess Consort shot to death, the Prince was very sad.

Although when the Princess Consort was alive, the Prince always quarreled with her, yet after spending so much time together, and with the Princess Consort repeatedly saving the Prince, surely the Prince had feelings for her.

Now that the Princess Consort had died just like that, how could the Prince not be saddened?

Nan Xuan felt saddened too, but even in his grief, he reported seriously, "Prince, this is the Princess Consort. I just checked, and there’s a spider on the Princess Consort’s face."

Images of Feng Qing being cunning, crafty, diligent, or attentively appeared in Rong Ling’s mind. He felt she shouldn’t have died so easily. She was so sly and clever that even if everyone else died, she probably wouldn’t have.

So he didn’t believe she died so effortlessly.

With these thoughts, Rong Ling stepped forward, and behind him, Nan Feng and others instinctively called out, "Prince."

They feared the Prince would be agitated seeing the state of the Princess Consort’s body after the fall.

Rong Ling seemed not to hear them, walking step by step toward the woman ahead.

His heart remained taut, his hands unknowingly clenched into fists.

Yet, even in his unease, he continued to step forward with determination. He couldn’t believe Feng Qing had died just like that.

Rong Ling reached the fallen woman’s side, crouching slowly to examine her. Her figure resembled Feng Qing’s, as did her clothing and headdress. Even the golden bracelet on her hand was similar, and the bloodied face had the same spider.

If this wasn’t Feng Qing, who could have prepared such a replica of her body in such a short time? So, could it be said that this deceased woman was indeed Feng Qing?

With this thought, Rong Ling felt as if all strength had drained from his body, overwhelmed by grief like a rising tide.

He failed her; it was all his fault. Today he should have arranged more people to protect her and not been so careless.

Looking at the woman on the ground, Rong Ling slowly spoke, "Feng Qing, I broke my promise to you. I said you would live with unparalleled glory, yet ultimately, I caused your death. In this life, even if you are gone, you shall always be my main wife, and there will be no other."

Rong Ling’s words caused his subordinates around him to look at their Prince in astonishment. The Prince’s words meant that even if the Princess Consort had died, she would forever remain the main wife of the Prince Yong Mansion. Even if other women entered the mansion in the future, they would only be concubines.

Those women must treat the Princess Consort with the respect due to a concubine, so even though the Princess Consort had died, this could be considered a form of compensation.

Everyone felt both saddened and comforted.
