《Drunk but Smiled, Together With You》 C1 The candle flame flickered, and the large red lantern illuminated the area in front of the Ya Xuan entrance in red. Gu Yingyun sat alone in front of the window and looked into the distance. In her eyes, the deep palace courtyard, the deep tiled walls, all of this looked desolate to her. Gu Yingyun lifted his hand and touched his stomach. This was her second child. The imperial physician had said that her body was weak. If she miscarried again, she probably wouldn''t have children in the future. Just then, the curtains in the room was suddenly opened by someone, a cool breeze blew, causing Gu Yingyun''s body to involuntarily shiver, he turned to look. "Looking at your expression, it seems that you don''t want to see me." A handsome man dressed in a five clawed golden dragon imperial robe walked towards her. His cold and fierce eyes stared straight at Gu Yingyun, and his voice was extremely cold. Gu Yingyun''s heart trembled, his hands nervously shook, "Your majesty, chenqie doesn''t dare." She bowed slightly, causing Xuanyuan Qi to snort coldly. His eyes were filled with disgust and impatience. "Your Majesty, would you like some tea?" Gu Yingyun did not dare to go up, and could only ask. Xuanyuan Qi narrowed her cold eyes, and said coldly: "Isn''t this what you wanted?" Hearing that, Gu Yingyun''s hand that was pouring tea paused, his body stiffened, and then he pretended to be calm: "This concubine doesn''t know what the emperor is talking about." "You wouldn''t know?" Xuanyuan Qi took a step forward, and looked down at her condescendingly, "What are you pretending for in front of me!" "Chenqie really doesn''t know ¡­" Before Gu Yingyun could finish speaking, she felt herself floating in the air, causing her to scream in fear. Her arms quickly wrapped around Xuanyuan Qi''s neck, she was extremely terrified. "Your majesty, what do you want to do, your majesty?" Gu Yingyun saw a hint of scarlet in his eyes. Xuanyuan Qi''s lips curled up in a mocking arc, "What? What do you think? " "No, Your Majesty, no!" Gu Yingyun tried to struggle free, but unfortunately, Xuanyuan Qi''s strength was too great, so he firmly grabbed onto her body and forced her to the corner of the bed. Every time he visited late at night, he would force her, and every time he did, he would not let her off lightly. Suddenly, Gu Yingyun''s body turned cold, the man''s actions were crude and ruthless, not showing any mercy. Gu Yingyun felt as if she had fallen into ice, her entire body was ice-cold and her heart was filled with fear. In the past, when he had humiliated her, she had acknowledged him, but now, she could not! "Gu Yingyun, don''t look so pitiful. Back then, when you harmed Shuer by killing her, why didn''t I see your pity?" Xuanyuan Qi''s gaze was ruthless and his voice was sinister. Gu Yingyun hurriedly shook her head, her voice was choked with sobs and she said in a sobbing tone, "I did not." "You are not qualified to defend yourself, Gu Yingyun!" The woman''s tears and tears, the look of pity was really glaring at him, forcing Xuanyuan Qi''s hand strength to increase. "The emperor really isn''t me!" I really didn''t send the person who assassinated Shu-er! " Gu Yingyun could not stop her tears from flowing down. "You actually dare to mention it!?" I wish that the person who was killed back then was you! " Gu Yingyun''s vision gradually blurred. His words were like a cold and hard blade that ruthlessly pierced her heart, hollowing out all her hopes for him. Back then, she had entered the palace with her elder sister and served the Emperor for three years. In these three years, did he not have any feelings for her? He actually wanted her to die in place of his sister! "Your Majesty ¡­" Gu Yingyun blinked her teary beautiful eyes, and said with despair and desolation: "All these years, have you ever cared about me?" C2 At this time, Gu Yingyun still had some expectations in his heart, even if it was a lie. "Can This Emperor care about you?" Gu Yingyun, you think too much. " Xuanyuan Qi sneered, her thin lips curled up, and her eyes filled with ridicule and disgust. Gu Yingyun could clearly see his emotions, and her heart sank. In fact, she should have thought of this long ago. "The reason the emperor allowed me to enter the palace was also because my elder sister ¡­" "Otherwise?" Xuanyuan Qi laughed sarcastically, "With just you alone, I have absolutely no interest in you! I let you enter the palace because I''m afraid that your sister will be lonely. But now, you actually caused the death of the only person who treats you well. You don''t deserve to call Shu-er big sister. " His cold eyes were fierce, and his words stabbed into Gu Yingyun''s heart. Gu Yingyun''s heart that was covered with wounds from a blade felt as if it was dripping blood, the pain pierced through his heart, this time he had broken all of her greed for him, with his own hands. In his eyes, her love was laughable. He clasped her cheek with his palm, so hard that her jaw was almost dislocated. "If it wasn''t for the fact that your face was similar to hers, do you think I would have let you live until now?" Gu Yingyun''s pupils suddenly contracted. To him, she was merely a substitute for his elder sister, that''s all. Gu Yingyun could not help but recall the scene when the accident happened. She was sitting in the horse carriage with her sister, surrounded by a large group of black clothed people. If it wasn''t for her elder sister blocking her path, she probably would have died on the way back to the palace. Gu Shuer''s charming face lingered in her mind, along with her elder sister''s smile before she died. Every time she thought about it, it was very scary. "Your Majesty, you think that the killer was sent by chenqie?" Gu Yingyun raised his head and looked straight into her eyes. It was incomparably desolate. He did not believe in her, and had never believed in her before. Xuanyuan Qi''s eyes turned cold, "What else? They are all dead, and only you came back alive. How can I not suspect you? " "Yes," Gu Yingyun smiled miserably, "Your Majesty is right. Only Chenqie came back alive." The guard, maids and Gu Shuer were all dead, and only she was left back in the palace. Seeing her bitter smile, Xuanyuan Qi could not help but frown. "What do you want to do now?" And acting weak and innocent! The pain in Gu Yingyun''s heart was hard to put into words. She looked at the man she deeply loved and softly said, "Your Majesty, chenqie has a child." "What did you say?" Xuanyuan Qi shook her hand off and frowned. Gu Yingyun panicked, and before he could open his mouth to explain, Xuanyuan Qi''s contemptuous voice came out ¡ª ¡ª "Don''t let This Emperor speak any more nonsense." "Your majesty!" Hearing this, Gu Yingyun hurriedly grabbed Xuanyuan Qi''s arm. "Your majesty, chenqie begs you, begs you to keep this child, begs you!" She couldn''t lose this child, she couldn''t! This was even more chilling than beating her into the cold palace. Xuanyuan Qi impatiently shook him off and fiercely said: "You are not fit to bear our son!" "Your Majesty! "Chenqie is begging you, I''m begging you!" Gu Yingyun didn''t want to let go, so he used some force and pulled at Gu Yingyun''s abdomen. Gu Yingyun looked at his tall back as he shouted his name weakly. However, Xuanyuan Qi did not come back, leaving her alone in the cold. This place was a prison specially built by Xuanyuan Qi in order to torture her. Gu Yingyun was afraid that she would not be able to protect her child, so she held onto her stomach tightly. She gritted her teeth and persevered, perspiring profusely. He was even able to abandon his child. This was practically throwing her into the eighteen layers of hell. I''m afraid he wanted her to die a long time ago ¡­ C3 Gu Yingyun endured the pain. After waiting for the pain to ease with much difficulty, she panted heavily to stabilize her emotions. Elder sister had already left this world for three years, and she had the title of ''wicked woman'' on her shoulders for three whole years. Gu Yingyun got up awkwardly and put on his clothes. At this moment, she missed her parents very much. Ever since her elder sister had left, she had never seen her family again. She could not help but miss them. Outside the Gu Estate. "A small family like ours can''t stand being visited by the empress!" A red door blocked the Queen from entering. Within the manor was her parents, whom she had not seen for three years. "Father, mother, I just want to come see you two." Gu Yingyun stood outside the door and looked at the two elders through the crack in the door. There was no sound from inside the door, and Gu Yingyun revealed a bitter smile. To them, only her elder sister was the true daughter of the Gu family, and she was more like a child that they had picked up. Gu Yingyun sat on the palanquin back to the palace as he thought back to all sorts of things that happened in the past. Since young, his mother and father had always given him the best things, and no matter what, it was only because his sister didn''t like him that he was able to use them. They were both Miss Gu, and the one in the limelight was always the elder sister. As a young sister, she had won her parents'' love for her for being a good girl. When she grew up, she was also the most talented girl in the capital. In such a comparison, she was indeed inferior to her elder sister. Gu Yingyun laughed bitterly. She clearly met the emperor first, but in the end, the one the emperor liked was still his sister. The heavens had indeed played a joke on her. In the silent and cold Ya Xuan, trees were dried up, weeds were overgrown, and there was no one to take care of them; it was extremely desolate. To Gu Yingyun, all of the relatives in the world had left her one after another. So what was the point of her being alive? She didn''t want to kill the child. If she really couldn''t keep it, then she might as well leave with the child ¡­ Gu Yingyun got the palace maid to write a letter to him. After the palace maid left, she drank the poison wine inside the hall by herself and laid on the bed quietly, waiting for her death. After leaving the imperial court, Xuanyuan Qi went back to the Imperial Study to take care of his official affairs. Seeing a sealed letter on the chopping board, he opened it and saw Gu Yingyun''s calligraphy that said, "We will meet again in the next life." These four simple words swept away the mood Xuanyuan Qi had for improving. He dropped the letter on the ground, his handsome brow furrowed. This woman was always challenging his bottom line. "Your Majesty, your Majesty ¡­" The eunuch who had served him for so many years stumbled in, panting. Xuanyuan Qi was still angry, and asked with a frown: What are you doing? "So reckless!" "Gu ¡­ Gu ¡­" No, it''s the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine has returned, she''s currently in Grand Master Gu''s mansion! " The eunuch knelt on the ground and raised his head to look at the Emperor as he spoke excitedly. "What did you say?" Xuanyuan Qi quickly walked in front of the eunuch, "Are you speaking the truth? "If you lie to me ¡­" "Your servant would never dare to lie to the emperor. This is true!" The eunuch was so frightened that he kowtowed repeatedly in promise, the sweat in his palms wetting the horsetail whisk. After Xuanyuan Qi recovered from his shock, his black eyes slightly narrowed as he anxiously said. "Quick, We want to see her!" "As you command, this servant will bring the imperial concubine to the palace right away." As the eunuch''s voice fell, Xuanyuan Qi could not wait any longer and stood up, "No, we will personally go to the Gu household to fetch her!" "Yes." The eunuch''s heart was as clear as a mirror. He knew that the emperor had deep feelings for the imperial concubine, so he hurriedly got up and ran out of the Imperial Study to arrange the sedan chair. The imperial concubine of the Heavenly Dynasty had returned. The news had spread throughout the entire palace, and everyone was mixed in joy and worry. The emperor walked out of the palace in a grand and majestic manner, with tens of thousands of people paying their respects to him! What a golden age this was! C4 Gu Yingyun seemed to have had a very, very long dream. When he was young, he saw her playing by the river and met the young emperor. No, at that time, he was only the crown prince. He had said that he would take her as his wife. Wife was the true marriage, unique and unparalleled. However, he didn''t fulfill his original promise. "Miss, Miss ¡­" An anxious and worried female voice sounded beside Gu Yingyun''s ears. She frowned, and slowly opened her eyes. Liu Er? " "It''s my young mistress!" Liu Er raised his hands to wipe the tears on his face, and covered Gu Yingyun''s face with a blanket. Gu Yingyun coughed violently, and said weakly: "I ¡­" "Miss, no matter what, you have to think for your child. Don''t do anything foolish again!" Liu Er told Gu Yingyun that he called for the royal doctors to rescue her in time. Fortunately, he didn''t drink too much of the poison and kept his life. Hearing that, Gu Yingyun held onto Liu Er''s arm tightly. "Child ¡­" "Miss, it''s fine, all of you are fine." Liu Er comforted her. "That''s good, that''s good." Gu Yingyun repeated, his eyes went pale and empty. Seeing her young miss like this, Liu Er''s tears flowed uncontrollably, as he fought for her. "Miss, how could the emperor treat you like this?" If not for young miss returning this time, Liu Er would not have been able to enter the palace to meet you. " "What did you say?" Gu Yingyun''s eyes flashed, "Tell me ¡­ Big Sis, she''s back? " The Gu Shuer who died in front of her all those years ago had returned?! "Yeah." Liu Er scoffed twice, and replied, "Eldest Miss is back. The emperor will quickly rush to the palace to meet with Eldest Miss. "This servant took advantage of this opportunity and took the initiative to petition to come to the palace to wait upon Miss. Only then did the emperor agree." "Liu Er." Gu Yingyun raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Liu Er''s immature face, "I''m doing well in the Palace, why are you accompanying me in suffering?" Gu Yingyun''s finger was ice-cold as he touched Liu Er''s warm cheek. Liu Er stood straight, and said respectfully: "Miss, Liu Er has been following you since young, if it wasn''t for the sudden turn of events back then, Liu Er would never have easily left you." "It''s alright, it''s all in the past now." Gu Yingyun pulled out a smile, and his pale white face carried a faint bitterness. "His Majesty, he ¡­" Gu Yingyun wanted to say something, but stopped. Liu Er sighed lightly and said unhappily: "Does young miss still care about that ungrateful man at this time?" "How dare you!" Gu Yingyun''s expression suddenly became serious, with majesty in his eyes. "This servant knows her wrongs." Liu Er lowered his eyes, and said gloomily. "Liu Er, the walls of the palace have ears, they are not comparable to the palaces." Gu Yingyun warned repeatedly that she had been extremely careful all these years, not thinking that Liu Er would make a mistake the moment he entered the palace. But... When he found out that the Emperor only cared about his sister, and didn''t care about her life or death, Gu Yingyun''s heart ached as if a knife was cutting at it. When the imperial concubine returned to the palace, the entire nation celebrated together and the Emperor even granted a general amnesty to the world! Gu Yingyun was escorted by Liu Er to the imperial concubine''s chamber, where he was informed that the palace maid had come out to reply coldly, "Empress, the imperial concubine said that you can go in by yourself." Liu Er just wanted to say something, but Gu Yingyun raised his hand to stop him, and laughed: "It''s fine, let us go in." Liu Er nodded helplessly, as he walked slowly behind the palace maid. Before they even reached the hall, they heard their parents and elder sister''s voices ¡­ However, when he appeared before them, the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared, to be replaced by cold treatment. "Sister, you''re here!" Gu Shuer was still as gentle and lovable as before. Gu Yingyun smiled back, his heart still lingering fear. If he was half as good as his elder sister, he wouldn''t be hated to such an extent by his parents right now. "Shu-er, stay away from the empress." Mrs. Gu took a step forward and quickly pulled his daughter back to his side, looking at Gu Yingyun with an expression of vigilance. In an instant, Gu Yingyun''s heart became as cold as ice, her long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said in a low voice: "Elder sister, you ¡­ It''s so good that you''re back. " She thought, now that Gu Shuer had returned, her innocence could be proven. "Since elder sister has returned, then please tell the truth in front of everyone. Were those assassins sent by me?" What happened that year had always been a hurdle. He clearly knew that his words would cause unhappiness, but Gu Yingyun still wanted to get to the bottom of this issue. "Gu Yingyun!" Old Master Gu huffed angrily as he glared at her. "Shu-er just came back, don''t provoke her!" "Grand Master Gu is right!" The man''s deep and dignified voice sounded out from outside the hall, causing everyone to be stunned for a moment, then they all bowed in salute ¡­ "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" "No need for formalities!" Xuanyuan Qi lifted his hand to support the Grand Master Gu, causing him to retreat a few steps in fear, "Your majesty, please do not. This subject cannot take it." Xuanyuan Qi said softly with both of his hands behind his back, "No need to stand on ceremony!" "Yes." Once the Grand Master Gu received his orders, he stood in front of his daughter Gu Shuer and took precautions, treating Gu Yingyun as an outsider. Gu Yingyun looked up at Xuanyuan Qi, and said with a bitter smile: "Chenqie only wants to prove her innocence." C5 "Little sister, you ¡­" Gu Shuer frowned, her innocent and kind look really made people feel tender towards her. Seeing that, Gu Yingyun was nervous, but her sister''s current appearance, showed that she was being overbearing. Everyone believed that Gu Shuer could not bear to say the truth. Why couldn''t she bear it? It was because Gu Yingyun was her younger sister. The more Gu Shuer hesitated, the greater the suspicion on him. "Esteemed Empress, what are you planning to do?" Grand Master Gu was polite and distant, his eyes full of caution. Gu Yingyun could not help but laugh bitterly, "What can I do ¡­" "This subject doesn''t care what the empress''s intentions are, I''m only begging the empress not to harm Shu-er." Old Master Gu''s attitude clearly saw Gu Yingyun as an enemy. Hearing that, Gu Yingyun shook his head and laughed bitterly. She looked at Xuanyuan Qi who was standing beside her, and said gently: "I only wanted to prove my innocence, what''s wrong with that?" Was she supposed to be slandered? "Enough." Xuanyuan Qi frowned and said in annoyance, "Xiu''er did not complain to you when she came back, but now you are saying that." "¡­" Gu Yingyun''s lips slightly parted. In the end, he still didn''t believe her. Furthermore, he believed that she would frame Gu Shuer in the future. "When has chenqie ever harmed the imperial concubine? Your majesty, please investigate!" Gu Yingyun''s voice was sorrowful, he had nowhere to vent the pain in his heart. "I don''t want to hear your explanation. Shu-er doesn''t blame you, and I also don''t want to be entangled with the past anymore." The disgust in Xuanyuan Qi''s eyes was obvious. "Your majesty." Gu Shuer frowned, her eyes full of pain: "Stop talking." She used a handkerchief to wipe away the tears at the corners of her eyes. She pulled up the sleeves of his dragon robe and whispered, "Let it pass like this." Xuanyuan Qi saw that his beloved woman was crying, and her eyes became even deeper. "Gu Yingyun, since you still do not know your wrongs, then let us order you to return to the place where Shu-er was killed and stay there for the rest of your life." Gu Yingyun heard and his body trembled, "Your majesty, what did you say?" He actually wanted her to leave the palace and go to the place where she was killed. That place was her nightmare, and he could actually be ruthless to the extreme. Furthermore, his parents did not express their hatred towards him. They looked at him with hatred, as if he was truly the unforgivable person. Gu Yingyun laughed at himself, "You are all so heartless." "Daddy!" At this time, a little boy ran out from behind the screen. He ran to Xuanyuan Qi''s side with large strides, and smiled with his young and tender face up. Daddy hug! " Gu Yingyun opened his eyes wide and looked at the boy, suddenly realizing, could this be Xuanyuan Qi''s child? It was his sister and her child! It was not hard to see that Xuanyuan Qi was spoiled. Gu Shuer watched everything from the side, and explained in a low voice: "That year, my luck was good, I was saved by the villagers, and after knowing that I was pregnant, I was nurturing my baby. I''m afraid there''s something good, the child will ¡­" She paused for a moment, and everyone could tell that she was afraid that her child would be hurt. "So, the reason I''ve been out for so long is so that my child can grow up and come back, but... But I didn''t expect you to create a queen. " Once Gu Shuer finished his sentence, he broke down crying. With a pained heart, Xuanyuan Qi embraced the woman in his arms and gently said: "You can look for us." "I don''t want to come back and ruin your relationship with my sister. What''s more, I have scars all over my body. It''s really too eye-catching." Gu Shuer leaned into the Emperor''s embrace, and said while sobbing. Hearing that, Xuanyuan Qi frowned even more, and looked at Gu Yingyun with an ice-cold gaze. Gu Yingyun was in a trance. Obviously, before the incident that happened that day, Big Sister was still in the midst of the moon incident, so how could she possibly be pregnant with the Emperor''s child? This was impossible! C6 "No, it''s not like that, Your Majesty! It''s impossible for big sister to be pregnant with your child. This is not your child! " Gu Yingyun secretly clenched his fists, and said excitedly. Her eyes were firm as she tried to persuade Xuanyuan Qi. "Could it be that I don''t know whether or not he is my child?" Xuanyuan Qi''s face darkened, "We know that you, Empress, have malicious thoughts, but even now, you still want to frame your own sister." "Your majesty, chenqie''s words are true." Gu Yingyun tried to pull at the side of the dragon robe, but was dodged by the side, and did not hesitate at all. "I only believe in the words of my imperial concubine, never her! This child is the prince, and also the fated crown prince of the imperial court! " Xuanyuan Qi looked at Gu Yingyun coldly, his voice firm. Gu Yingyun was dumbstruck, his hands hovering in the air. Yes, he had always believed in Gu Shuer, and those that didn''t believe in her, had always been so. Before Gu Yingyun could react, he was invited out of the imperial concubine''s palace. She returned to the Ya Xuan and shortly after, the Emperor came as well. Xuanyuan Qi stared at her with ice-cold eyes and said with a sullen face, "From today onwards, Gu Shuer will be Empress." Hearing that, Gu Yingyun''s entire body shivered, her heart felt as though it had been cut by a knife, her lips could not help but tremble: "Is the emperor about to cripple the empress?!" All these years, she had been guarding him all the time. In the end, it had all been in vain. He had no feelings for her. "The empress''s position was originally Shu-er''s, but now it''s just to return it to her!" Xuanyuan Qi''s voice was cold and harsh, as he snorted. These words of his caused Gu Yingyun''s soul to be whipped away. "Why?" "Why? Because I am the Emperor! Because she is my most beloved woman! " Xuanyuan Qi''s every word was like a knife, fiercely stabbing Gu Yingyun''s body, causing her to be riddled with thousands of wounds. Gu Yingyun opened her beautiful eyes wide as she unconsciously retreated. Her big sister was his most beloved woman, he wanted to give her the position of Empress to his most beloved woman. In these three years of separation, all of the women of the harem had envied her for being able to make Gu Yingyun the empress. It was so ridiculous that it was actually crippled by the Emperor himself. She had escaped so many setbacks, but not him. He had given her the position of queen. He wanted to take it away, but she had no power to resist. "Moreover, Shu-er has my child. Mother is precious, of course." Child. These two words once again affected Gu Yingyun''s heart. "Chenqie once had a child. If she was born then, she should have ¡­" Gu Yingyun had not finished speaking when he was interrupted by him in a cold voice, "If you did not say it, we would have forgotten. You are not worthy to be my child!" With that said, Xuanyuan Qi untied his belt like a bloodthirsty man and put it away. "No, no, Your Majesty, please let this child go!" "Let him go? Then why didn''t you let my little girl go back then? If you didn''t hurt Shu-er, we can let you stay in the palace and have one child and half a woman, but Gu Yingyun, you are truly malicious, and this is your retribution! " Xuanyuan Qi looked extremely demonic as he retreated continuously. She reached out and pressed her hand against Xuanyuan Qi''s chest, begging humbly: "I beg you, don''t hurt my child." "I said that you are not worthy of my child!" Not a single one! " Xuanyuan Qi lifted his hand to pin her chin. The strength in his hand was very strong, causing Gu Yingyun to feel pain on his chin, almost dislocated. Gu Yingyun''s face was filled with tears as she shook her head continuously. His ruthless voice echoed throughout the room... C7 "You can''t! This child must stay, unless I die in front of you!" Gu Yingyun''s voice trembled as he faced Xuanyuan Qi. This was all for the sake of the child. In any case, he was someone who had died once. The child was so strong, yet she didn''t lose it. With such strength, as a mother, she naturally would not give up. "Gu Yingyun, if you want to keep this child, it will definitely not be accepted by everyone." Gu Yingyun raised his eyes and looked at the emperor''s leaving figure. As if he had been reborn, he lifted his hand and caressed his own stomach and said softly, "Mother will definitely protect you well and won''t let you get hurt at all." As long as she was alive, no one else could have any ideas about children. A few days had passed, and his Ya Xuan had returned to its usual calm and tranquil state. On the other hand, Gu Yingyun was actually able to nurture his baby peacefully, but in his heart, he still couldn''t bear it anymore. He went to the imperial flower garden to peek at, and saw the love between him and the imperial concubine prince from afar. It was truly quite desolate. Occasionally, Liu Er would accompany her to talk. Usually, she would let Liu Er stay somewhere else, afraid that she would implicate her. But Liu Er remembered his old relationship, and would bring things to look at her from time to time. Gu Yingyun remembered all of this in his heart. There were no servants on the Ya Xuan to begin with, and Gu Yingyun''s stomach was gradually showing signs of showing through as well. "Miss, quickly lie down on the bed and don''t walk around anymore. Your body is more important." Liu Er looked like a person with a big belly, walking around gave him a fright. Gu Yingyun saw that she had come, and chuckled: "It''s fine, what good stuff did you bring this time?" "Miss, it''s your favorite candied fruit!" Liu Er opened the paper, revealing the candied fruits to the outside. "Thank you, Liu Er." Gu Yingyun was greedy, he took one and started to eat. The extra expenses for the Ya Xuan were all brought over by Liu Er, some of them were exchanged with jewelry sold by Gu Yingyun. Too poor. In these few days, when Gu Yingyun had nothing better to do, he thought of taking a walk in the flower garden, but coincidentally met the imperial concubine. No, it''s the current Empress Gu Shuer. "Isn''t this the empress?" "No, I should call you trash now." Gu Shuer was dressed in embroidered clothing, with four to five servants following behind him. Gu Shuer felt Gu Yingyun''s gaze, he turned and looked behind him, and then chuckled: "Sister, are you getting annoyed seeing me? "Don''t mind it. The emperor sent some people to protect me because he was afraid that I would meet with some more mishaps." Gu Yingyun retracted his gaze, and felt bitter. The only person the Emperor cared about was his sister. "Little sister, I heard that the expenses of your sleeping quarters are all from selling off your jewelry, how about this, you come to my sleeping quarters and take care of Xiao Er for me, I''ll give you money, how about that?" Gu Shuer''s eyes showed his worry, but in Gu Yingyun''s eyes, his gaze was especially piercing. Did he want her to help look after the child as a servant girl? "To be honest, you have to think for the child in your womb, right?" Gu Shuer pointed to Gu Yingyun''s stomach, as her red lips curled slightly. Gu Yingyun frowned, and said coldly: "I''m afraid that the Emperor will not agree." "Don''t worry about that." Gu Shuer went over to Gu Yingyun''s ear and whispered, "I had told the emperor about this a long time ago, and he had also agreed to it. I''m afraid you won''t be able to feed the vile spawn in your belly. " "You!" Gu Yingyun gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She did not think that her elder sister would actually say such vicious words. "What is it? You don''t want this child anymore? " Gu Shuer spoke slowly, slowly. This made Gu Yingyun even more disappointed. After struggling in her heart for a while, she finally agreed. "Alright." Gu Shuer raised her eyebrows, looking extremely pleased with herself. Previously, when she saw Gu Yingyun sat in the position of Empress, she was extremely jealous, but now that she had become a cripple, it was finally time for her. In the end, he was just a servant that took care of the child. C8 After bidding farewell to Gu Shuer, Gu Yingyun returned to the Ya Xuan to wait quietly for a few days before being sent to the empress''s quarters. On the road, Gu Yingyun couldn''t help but find it laughable. Now that Gu Shuer had become the Queen, she ¡­ Going to the queen''s chambers in the middle of the night just for a little money to look after the prince was truly ironic. "Sister is here." Gu Shuer stood at the door and welcomed her with a smile. When Gu Yingyun saw her, he nodded his head lightly but did not reply. After tonight, the news of her coming here would probably spread throughout the entire Imperial Palace. Gu Shuer left and returned to the Inner Palace to rest. Gu Yingyun was looking at the prince. The child was still young, so he was especially curious about everything. Gu Yingyun patiently answered carefully, reminding him to be careful. The prince suddenly sat down beside her and stared at Gu Yingyun with his bright eyes. "I heard that you and mother are blood sisters." "Yes." Gu Yingyun hesitated for a few seconds, before replying. They couldn''t deny the fact that they were related by blood, even though the Gu family had never cared about her. With both hands on his cheeks, the crown prince looked at Gu Yingyun with his bell-like eyes looking forward to it, and muttered to himself, "If only you were my mother!" Gu Yingyun was flabbergasted. Just as he was about to speak, a sharp female voice came from outside the door. "Xuanyuan Xiao! Come here! " Xuanyuan Xiao was shocked, she immediately jumped off the chair and ran to Gu Shuer''s side. Gu Shuer quickly walked to Gu Yingyun''s side and sized her up, then mocked: "This child isn''t even born yet, and you want to be a mother?!" Originally, he wanted to show off his strength to Gu Yingyun, but now, he was actually tricked by the other party, and even almost took his son away! They were truly full of wild ambition. "Gu Yingyun, you better remember this, you are just relying on others!" Gu Shuer didn''t release his anger at all. "Elder sister wants face. I want money. We will take what we need from each other!" Gu Yingyun ignored Gu Shuer''s vicious gaze, she stood up and wanted to leave, but her lower abdomen suddenly felt a throbbing pain, causing her to secretly clench her teeth and bend, her hands clutching her lower abdomen. When Gu Shuer caught a glimpse of it, he sneered sinisterly and reached out to push Gu Yingyun. Her cold laughter caught Gu Yingyun''s attention. Seeing that the other party was about to harm him, Gu Yingyun dodged to the side. Unexpectedly, Gu Shuer''s scream came out, and his entire body fell to the ground. At this time, Xuanyuan Qi, who was walking in from outside the hall, saw this scene. "Gu Yingyun, what are you doing!" Xuanyuan Qi''s voice filled with anger, Gu Yingyun''s body suddenly stiffened, he knew that he had misunderstood her again. Xuanyuan Qi quickly walked to Gu Shuer''s side and carried her, his eyes filled with pain. Gu Yingyun was already in so much pain that sweat was flowing out of her body. She bit her lower lip and was unable to speak due to the pain coming from her lower abdomen. When she woke up again, she saw a man with a face full of anger. The killing intent in his cold eyes had really scared Gu Yingyun. Because of his elder sister, he wanted to kill her. "How is elder sister?" "Gu Yingyun, what exactly do you want? Do you want Shu-er to disappear again, you wicked woman? " Xuanyuan Qi''s ruthless voice felt rather uncomfortable to Gu Yingyun. His already bleeding heart was once again cut down by his own hands. "Your Majesty, this is all a misunderstanding. Moreover ¡­" And Xiao Er really isn''t your child. " Right after Gu Yingyun finished speaking, Xuanyuan Qi opened his mouth to stop him, "Shut up for us!" "Believe me, chenqie won''t lie to you." Gu Yingyun''s voice trembled as she shrank into a corner to look at him. Xuanyuan Qi stared at her with his cold and loathsome eyes, "From today onwards, if you bring up this matter again, I will definitely not let you off so easily!" C9 "The Emperor ¡­" Gu Yingyun opened his mouth, but no words came out to defend himself. He said that he would not let her go, Gu Yingyun completely believed that Xuanyuan Qi would kill her for her. Because he had never believed her. No matter what he said or did, he would never have the slightest bit of trust. From the first time she had slept, he had decided that she was an indiscreet woman. But, she had clearly given her first time to him! However, Xuanyuan Qi did not remember a single thing. He had forgotten about everything related to her. How ironic that he had never taken her seriously. "Your Majesty ¡­" Gu Yingyun''s voice was calm, his heart was filled with pain and there was nowhere for him to vent it on, he tried his best to swallow it down. "Since you don''t believe me, then chenqie has nothing to say. It''s just that ¡­" A throbbing pain suddenly came from her lower abdomen, interrupting Gu Yingyun''s words. In the next moment, sweat started to drip down her face, she bit her lower lip, until it looked like she was about to bleed. "Your majesty, save chenqie''s child!" The child was not even in July, so nothing could go wrong, absolutely not! Seeing that, Xuanyuan Qi frowned, his expression became unclear, and he asked suspiciously: "What are you trying to pull this time!" "None ¡­" Gu Yingyun stooped down in pain, his vision gradually became blurry, and he stuttered: "Your majesty, chenqie isn''t lying!" Her body was swaying, Xuanyuan Qi frowned, he reached out to hug her soft body, his heart startled, and called out: "Doctor! Quick, get an imperial physician! " The eunuchs outside the hall heard the sound and hurriedly ran over to invite the imperial physician over. The imperial physician was in a hurry with the midwife, carrying a medicine box. If this were to be delayed and the emperor was furious, then they would be beheaded. "Hurry up!" When they finally reached the Ya Xuan, the midwife asked Liu Er to prepare some things. Xuanyuan Qi was blocked outside the hall, so he stopped the midwife and asked: "How is she?" "Your Majesty, the empress''s body is weak, and her child hasn''t even been seven years old. There''s really something troublesome ¡­" The midwife didn''t dare to lie, so she could only answer truthfully. Xuanyuan Qi''s heart suddenly hurt, "Not even seven months? No matter what, you must save This Emperor! " "Yes, Your Majesty." The midwife walked into the room, trembling all over. She was so nervous that her back was soaked. If anything happened to her, she would really be waiting to be cut off. Xuanyuan Qi was anxiously waiting outside the hall. He couldn''t help but think that it wasn''t even seven months yet and in the end, he had never cared about her. He didn''t even remember the baby''s month. Xuanyuan Qi''s expression was extremely scary, his entire body was releasing a bloodthirsty aura, causing the palace maids and eunuchs to kneel down, not daring to make a sound, afraid that they would be intimidated by the might of the dragon. After Gu Shuer found out about this, he thought Gu Yingyun deserved it at first. However, when he thought about how the Emperor was standing guard outside the palace, he couldn''t help but feel jealous and jealous. "Shu-er!" A rough male voice came out. When Gu Shuer heard the voice, his body tensed up and his expression flashed with panic. "Shu-er, the window!" Gu Shuer heard the familiar voice of a male coming from the direction, and slowly walked towards the window. Opening the window, he saw a man dressed in black, covered in dust walking towards him. "You ¡­ You want to charge into the Imperial Palace at night? " Gu Shuer deliberately lowered his voice as he revealed a nervous expression. If she was caught by the guards, all of her plans would be ruined! "What? You don''t want me to come?" The man was rather unhappy, but just as he was about to jump in, he was stopped by Gu Shuer outside the window. "Hurry up and leave, we''ll send you a message!" The man hesitated for a moment before saying, "Fine, give me three hundred taels." "I think you''re dreaming!" Gu Shuer gritted his teeth. He really boasted shamelessly, asking for three hundred taels of silver. "Then I won''t go. I''ll just wait until I''m caught. I won''t be able to live any longer anyway." The man acted like a ruffian. Gu Shuer was afraid, "Alright, wait for me for two days, then that''s it. You can leave first." After the man succeeded, he left. Gu Shuer closed the window and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily as if he had been reborn. How could she even take out three hundred taels of silver for an evil person like him!? Even though she had been conferred the title of Empress, her reputation was unfounded, and she was not in charge of the harem yet. Gu Shuer thought about something and his eyes turned cold. The corner of his mouth hooked into a sinister smile. This couldn''t be blamed on her. Inside the Ya Xuan, the woman''s painful screams echoed around everyone, causing the servants to tremble uncontrollably, it was truly too miserable. "Your Majesty, your Majesty ¡­" The midwife was covered in blood, her hands extremely dazzling. She staggered to Xuanyuan Qi''s side, knelt down and said fearfully, "Your majesty, the Empress has lost too much blood, the child and the adult can only save one!" "What did you say?" Xuanyuan Qi''s voice was low and angry, scaring the midwife out of her wits, and she quickly kowtowed to him, repeating what she had said. The whole air was reeking with the smell of blood. Xuanyuan Qi had been out fighting all year round, so he was not surprised by this smell. "Listen carefully. If she dies, I will bury all of you with her!" "Please calm your anger, Your Majesty!" Please calm your anger, your majesty! " All the palace maids and eunuchs shouted in unison! "Hurry up and go!" Xuanyuan Qi frowned, his killing intent shocking the crowd. The midwife quickly stood up and walked back into the hall. One after another, the intermittent sounds of women''s miserable cries after another sounded, causing Xuanyuan Qi''s heart to hurt ¡­ Gu Yingyun, you must survive! The entire palace was in a state of unrest tonight. Everyone was praying, fearing that the emperor would start a massacre! C10 gritted his teeth as if his life depended on it and persevered. Her voice was rather weak, "Grandma, I beg you, please save my child." "Empress, this servant will do my best." From time to time, she would raise her hand to wipe it away. Time slowly passed. Xuanyuan Qi finally couldn''t wait to force his way in. Coincidentally, the midwife pushed open the door and came out ¡ª ¡ª "Congratulations your majesty, mother and daughter are safe." Xuanyuan Qi''s pupils trembled. She opened her lips as though she wanted to say something, but stopped herself. He raised his hand to signal the midwife to step back. After a moment of hesitation, he walked into the hall. He looked at the woman lying on the bed. Her face was pale and her lips were dry. Faced with such a scene, the Death God Xuanyuan Qi who had been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, did not know what to do. "You ¡­" Xuanyuan Qi frowned, he did not expect that at this time, Gu Shuer''s crying voice came out. "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I beg you, please save this concubine''s child! " Gu Shuer ran in awkwardly, her face stained with tears, her eyes red from crying. Xuanyuan Qi saw that the woman almost fell down, and immediately helped her up. "Shu-er, what''s going on?" Both of Gu Shuer''s hands trembled as he handed the slip of paper over to Xuanyuan Qi. Xuanyuan Qi frowned as he took it into his hands and looked at it closely. The content was that someone had kidnapped Xiao Er and he had even claimed that he was Gu Yingyun''s lover. If they did not exchange Gu Yingyun''s child, they had to silence him! "I''d like to see who this lover of mine is!" Xuanyuan Qi threw the slip of paper in his hand onto the ground, and instantly, the ground was dyed red with blood, it was extremely shocking. Upon seeing this, the eunuch at the side trembled. "Your majesty, your majesty, please calm your anger!" "As the Son of Heaven, how could I be threatened by others?!" Xuanyuan Qi''s eyes were scarlet, bloodthirsty and terrifying. Gu Yingyun was truly a good Empress, to actually collude with outsiders to threaten him. "Your majesty, you have to save chenqie''s child. She''s the only flesh and blood of chenqie and the emperor!" Gu Shuer''s legs were weak and his entire body was leaning on Xuanyuan Qi''s body. "Since you know this person, you can get your sister to plead for mercy." Xuanyuan Qi''s eyes were cold and resolute, "Rest assured, I will give you an explanation." "Your Majesty ¡­" Gu Shuer was already sobbing loudly, "To be able to snatch someone from the Imperial Palace, the other party''s strength must not be underestimated!" "Don''t worry." With that, Xuanyuan Qi brought his people and left. Seeing him walk far away, Gu Shuer''s lips curled up, he was even proud of himself. She turned around and walked across the mess to the front of Gu Yingyun''s bed in disdain. Watching the girl quietly lying on the bed with an expression as if she didn''t know anything, she felt at ease. Why was it that when she was suffering all those years ago, Gu Yingyun was the empress of the imperial palace, enjoying his blessings? Why?! Gu Yingyun felt a bit of discomfort, and slowly opened her eyes. Seeing her on the bed, Gu Shuer smiled at her and she was surprised: "Sis ¡­ Elder sister, why are you here? " "Xiao Er was captured by the people you sent!" Gu Shuer lightly flung his sleeves and sneered. Gu Yingyun frowned, and asked without caring about the pain on her body: "What are you talking about, big sister? Xiao Er... Took away? "This is the imperial palace ¡­" "What''s wrong with the palace? The people you sent are too skilled! " Gu Shuer mocked as he moved closer to her ear. Gu Yingyun''s beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. "Elder sister, I didn''t send him, you ¡­" You can''t slander me! What exactly are you doing here? " "What am I here for? Of course it''s to take your daughter''s life! " Gu Shuer''s eyes became ruthless and merciless. He panicked and attempted to get up, but his body became powerless. Seeing that, Gu Shuer could not help but chuckle, "Aiyo, little sister, don''t be agitated. The Emperor has already carried your daughter away to exchange with the kidnappers." "What did you say!" In that moment, Gu Yingyun felt the cold enter his body, his entire body turning cold. Her child, the Emperor actually took her child to see the kidnapper! Why! Was he so intolerant of her children? "This was requested by your lover. A life for a life. There''s nothing the Emperor can do. In the end, the prince is still a bit more important. " Gu Shuer picked up the handkerchief and took a sniff, the stench of blood in the room was extremely repulsive, it was repulsive. Gu Yingyun''s lips trembled, the chill spread to her entire body, and she said furiously: "It''s you, it''s all your doing!" Gu Shuer had planned all of this personally to exchange her child! Her daughter, the child she had never seen before! "So what if it''s me? The Emperor believed that you did it! Maybe your daughter is already on her way to the Yellow Springs! " Gu Shuer''s terrifying laughter reverberated in the entire room. Gu Yingyun''s fingers clenched into a fist, his nails digging into the palms of his hands viciously. She hated Gu Shuer so much, so much! C11 "I was the one who let the emperor know that your lover kidnapped my Xiao Er and threatened him, exchanging his life for his. Think about it, that is the Son of Heaven, the Xuanyuan Qi who kills people like grass. Do you think your lover and that little bastard have any chance of survival? " Gu Shuer raised his head and snorted. Gu Yingyun bit his lower lip, the pain stimulating his brain. "You scary woman, you designed everything so that you could kill two birds with one stone!" "That''s right, it looks like you''re not completely stupid!" Gu Shuer glanced at her and sneered, "But even if you knew, it would be useless. The emperor only believes in me, he doesn''t believe in you." Gu Yingyun secretly clenched his teeth and endured, wishing that he could tear the lady in front of him into ten thousand pieces! "Don''t look at me like that, sister. Since the situation has already been resolved, there''s no harm for me to tell you one more thing ¡­ It was true that the Emperor was spending the night with you, but I told him that I was the one who married you that night, and that he should marry me! Who would have thought that he would actually believe it! " Gu Shuer''s face was full of pride, her face was brimming with energy and vitality, and her delicate eyebrows were slightly raised. Gu Yingyun realised, all of this was Gu Shuer''s doing. From the beginning to the end, she was just a pawn Gu Shuer used! "Little sister, don''t blame me for being heartless. It''s not like there''s no way to save your child now ¡­" "How about this, kneel down and kowtow three times for me. I''ll speak a few words for you in front of the emperor. Maybe the child''s life can still be saved." Gu Shuer played with the handkerchief in his hand and laughed. She wanted to trample Gu Yingyun under her feet. No matter what, she was stronger than Gu Yingyun! Why would the people of the palace still view Gu Yingyun as the empress now that she is a useless person? Gu Yingyun clenched his teeth, forced himself to get up and slowly got off the bed. His powerless body fell to his knees, and Gu Shuer immediately laughed lightly. Under Gu Shuer''s complacent laughter, Gu Yingyun finished kowtowing three times, and his forehead instantly flushed red. This kind of battered and exhausted Gu Yingyun made Gu Shuer feel very carefree in his heart. "Good, good!" She bent over and raised her hand, grabbing onto Gu Yingyun''s chin, looking at the girl with an unyielding gaze, she said softly: "Look at you, I''ve hated you since you were young! "Why pretend to be like this? It would be better to give in earlier!" Gu Shuer clenched his teeth, afraid that if he acted rashly, he would kill the woman in front of him. "Pah!" A palm ruthlessly slapped over, Gu Shuer said in a fierce voice: "Don''t look at me with that kind of expression! I''ll let you know today who the real master of this harem is. " Gu Yingyun''s face was red and swollen. She held onto the blanket tightly and said softly: "You said before, you would let my daughter go ¡­ ¡­ The child is innocent! " "Yes, I did say that I would help you speak up, but I never said whether it was in this life or the next! No matter what, your child is a bastard who doesn''t deserve to live in this world! " Gu Shuer clenched his teeth, his sinister look was truly malicious. "Why? "Why are you so unwilling to let my child go?" Gu Yingyun shouted in pain. Gu Shuer heard and laughed, "Spared? Xuanyuan Qi is mine, and the imperial harem is mine! I am the woman who was the mother of the world, the woman who relied on her son to be noble, what the hell do you think you are! Lick a dog that isn''t even fit for your feet! " Gu Shuer let go of Gu Yingyun''s chin and just as he straightened up, Gu Yingyun''s hands and eyes moved quickly. He took out the scissors from under the pillow, grabbed Gu Shuer''s shoulder and pressed the scissors against her neck. The ice-cold sharp blade edge allowed Gu Shuer to become clear-headed instantly, "What are you trying to do?" "Tell me, where is my child!" Gu Yingyun didn''t know where the strength came from, he only knew that his child was about to pass away, and his heart ached to the point of suffocating. The current Gu Yingyun was no longer soft, his entire heart was filled with children. Gu Shuer was initially panicking, but immediately calmed down: "If you kill me now, you won''t know anything!" "I advise you to speak the truth!" Gu Yingyun brought the scissors closer. He felt a tiny pain from his neck as he said in a cold voice, "I have a note for him in my arms." Gu Yingyun knew that this was Gu Shuer''s plan to slow down their fighting, so without thinking he directly reached his hands into Gu Shuer''s sleeves. Gu Shuer abruptly pulled, refusing to let go even if he died. Just as the two were fighting, the scissors in Gu Yingyun''s hand suddenly stabbed into Gu Shuer''s abdomen, instantly causing a bright red blood stain his clothes! It was a shocking sight, a truly terrifying sight to behold. Ah!" Gu Shu''er opened her mouth slightly, her hand covering her bleeding abdomen ¡­ C12 "Gu Yingyun, you ¡­ "You actually ¡­" Gu Shuer covered his stomach and screamed in pain. Gu Yingyun looked at her hands in shock, both were drenched in blood, the scissors in her hands slid to the ground, she could not care about anything else, and turned to run out of the Ya Xuan. Little did she know that the slip of paper was actually fake, and that Gu Shuer was lying to her. Gu Yingyun looked at the piece of paper, and saw not a single drop of ink on it. Where exactly was her child!? Right now, Gu Yingyun didn''t know who she should find. She didn''t have any relatives here, and she didn''t know who she should seek help from! Once, she had given her life to Xuanyuan Qi. Now, Xuanyuan Qi was nowhere to be found. Desperate and helpless, she leaned against the wall and stared at the slip of paper in her hands ¡­ She was so useless. "Sister-in-law!" The man''s surprised voice caught Gu Yingyun''s attention. Hearing this, she looked up and saw that it was actually the Third Marquis. "Third Marquis, Third Marquis!" Gu Yingyun threw away the paper slip and rushed to the man''s side, asking eagerly, "Third Marquis, I beg you, please tell me, where is the emperor right now?" "Royal brother? He is currently in the Imperial Study. " Xuanyuan Jing''s eyes were deep and secretive. After Gu Yingyun heard this, he quickly thanked: "Thank you, Third Marquis." After that, she turned and left. Xuanyuan Jing saw that she had walked far away, and lowered his eyes to look at the sleeves that the woman had grabbed. Carrying her skirt, Gu Yingyun ran into the bone-piercing cold wind and into the Imperial Study. Pushing open the door, she saw Xuanyuan Qi standing with his hands behind his back. "Your majesty, where is chenqie''s child?" Xuanyuan Qi turned, glanced at her, and said coldly: "You''re asking us? "I have long given my child to your lover!" "No, no! "He is not my lover. Your Majesty, you cannot hand your child over to him!" Gu Yingyun fell to the ground, his face filled with tears as he begged in pain. "No?" Not that he dares to threaten us! He even claimed that it was his child! " Xuanyuan Qi frowned, his voice cold and fierce, "Gu Yingyun, for your lover to use a child to threaten us, you truly have the guts!" Gu Yingyun hurriedly shook his head and denied it, "That''s not chenqie''s lover, but the child is the emperor''s flesh and blood. It''s simply not someone else''s. No!" How could that child be someone else''s? "I know very well whether the child is mine or not!" Don''t even think about letting us help you raise a bastard! You are the sinner of the monarch! " Xuanyuan Qi looked at the lady on the ground in disgust. Gu Yingyun supported his body with his hands, slowly got up, and retreated a few steps, "You still don''t believe me!" "Disappear in front of me! Get out! I shall spare your life and have already shown you a great deal of mercy! " Xuanyuan Qi said fiercely. "NO!" If chenqie can''t find the child today, she will never leave! " Gu Yingyun did not believe, he did not believe that Xuanyuan Qi would be so heartless as to send the child away. She ran behind the screen and looked around. She couldn''t find a single clue. "I see that you really don''t want to live anymore!" Gu Yingyun, from today onwards, you will live in the cold palace! " Gu Yingyun didn''t care at all about the viciousness in his voice. She was currently filled with children, ignoring Xuanyuan Qi''s obstruction, she flipped through her Imperial Study, looking at the leftovers, she suddenly felt a chill all over her body. She felt ¡­ Her child was really gone. He really was handed over to someone else by this heartless man! Gu Yingyun looked up at Xuanyuan Qi, and quickly walked in front of the man, raising his head and asking: "My child, where did you get your hands on this?" "Gu Yingyun!" Xuanyuan Qi frowned, looking at her crazy appearance, with tears all over her face, he finally turned his head away and did not look at her. "Don''t ¡­" Can you not speak? My lord, please tell me! Give the child back to me! " Gu Yingyun sorrowfully shouted to him, her voice extremely hoarse, sounding extremely ear-piercing. C13 Xuanyuan Qi''s eyes were deep as he looked at Gu Yingyun. The woman suddenly raised her hand and slapped herself. "Pa Pa Pa!" The sound was very loud! Gu Yingyun slapped himself a few times consecutively, the redness and swelling rising to a height. His heart throbbed as he said in a low voice, "What are you doing? "Threatening me!" The moment he finished speaking, Gu Yingyun opened her eyes that were filled with tears and looked at him for a moment. She choked with sobs, "Your majesty, are you only willing to give my child back to me when I am punished?!" Xuanyuan Qi retracted his hand, raised his eyes to look at the moon outside, and said in a low voice: "Don''t ask anymore." Gu Yingyun instantly collapsed as tears gushed out like a spring. She retrieved her dagger from the side and held it in her hand. "Your majesty, is it because chenqie is like a big sister that you''re unwilling to let her go?" Xuanyuan Qi looked back to see the lady holding the dagger to her face. "What do you want?" "Since that''s the case, why don''t chenqie destroy this similar face? I only wish that you let my child go and sever chenqie''s wish for you!" Gu Yingyun''s mind was disheartened, all thoughts went out of his mind, he exerted force on his wrist, and the sharp blade fiercely slashed towards his face. Blood dripped down. Half of his face was dyed red by the blood; it was extremely horrifying. "Gu Yingyun, have you gone crazy!?" Xuanyuan Qi snatched away the dagger in her hand and threw it to the ground. With a "clang" sound, the dagger fell to the ground, allowing Gu Yingyun to fall limply to the ground, "This time I have really stopped thinking about it." As the woman murmured, Xuanyuan Qi''s heart suddenly trembled. She had said that she had cut off her thoughts to him, and had cut off her thoughts to him! "I just gave the child back to her biological father, what do you have to worry about!" Xuanyuan Qi did not understand, wouldn''t it be better for children to follow their biological father? He clearly didn''t want to deal with her, but in the end, did she blame him? Originally, when he knew that she had a lover, the deep feeling of betrayal made Xuanyuan Qi want to kill her. In the end, he still couldn''t bear to part with it. "Your Majesty, he is not the father of the child, no." Gu Yingyun sobbed, his body had lost all its strength long ago. Her cheeks were still bleeding, but she felt nothing. Xuanyuan Qi frowned and said impatiently: "What the hell is going on, is it so hard to make you speak the truth?" "The truth?" Gu Yingyun laughed miserably, "What Chenqie says is the truth." He didn''t trust her, and whatever she said was a lie in his heart. This was prejudice! "It''s all because of your lies!" Xuanyuan Qi''s tone became more impatient. "Your majesty, as long as you return the child to me, I''ll stay away from you. I''ll never see you again!" "I think you''re crazy!" Xuanyuan Qi clenched his teeth, he was actually powerless against this weak girl. "Am I crazy?" Gu Yingyun raised his head and chuckled, "I am indeed crazy, I am completely and utterly mad! "Isn''t this all forced by the emperor and big sister? If it wasn''t for you, my child would have been fine!" Gu Yingyun''s expression changed greatly, her voice became cold, "Gu Shuer, you planned to push my child to that man, to put your child to death!" "You-" Xuanyuan Qi parted her lips. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Xuanyuan Xiao, who was standing outside the door eavesdropping, pop out his head and say softly, "Daddy, Xiao Er really heard that. Uncle Zhang said he wanted to kill that girl." Who is the Uncle Zhang? Could it be the kidnapper? Just then, the scouts sent out by Xuanyuan Qi came back. "Your majesty." The scout half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully. "Speak." Xuanyuan Qi nodded. "I just received news that while the kidnappers were escaping, they were intercepted and killed. The carriage ¡­" Fall down a cliff! " Gu Yingyun fell to the ground and the sound of the spy clearly entered her ears ¡ª ¡ª "The kidnappers and the baby girl in the carriage have fallen into a bottomless abyss and not even their corpses remain!"
