It hurt so much that it scared her, made her helpless, and made her despair
It made her want to cry hoarsely, but she couldn't make any sound
Slowly opening his eyes, the glow of the setting sun shines through the window on the marble floor beside him. Beside the bed, Junjie is kneeling on the ground, his eyes are slightly red, his brows are furrowed, and he says nothing.
She wanted to raise her hand, but she didn't have the strength. Her body became lighter, and her lower abdomen was still aching. She raised her head with difficulty and touched her lower abdomen, which was flat.
Her eyes were stagnant, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, and her heart felt cold, as if there was an awl stabbing her heart. The heart-wrenching pain made her wake up, and made her understand sadly and clearly that the person she had been with day and night was gone.
The warm presence that she had been waiting for every night was gone.
"This subordinate... deserves death." Junjie's voice was hoarse and he knelt on the ground.
Su Qingyi's tears fell, she was silent for a long time, and said calmly: "Kill her."
Junjie trembled slightly and said: "The Emperor... is interrogating Concubine Wan and Concubine Mo over there. After hearing the report from the secret guard just now, it seems that Concubine Mo... betrayed her master and told the Emperor everything."
Su Qingyi sneered, tears still falling down. "She is too naive. She thinks that if she tells him these things, he will deal with me like he dealt with the Queen Mother? She underestimates us too much, and he will believe me."
Junjie nodded and said nothing
Silence returned to the palace. For some reason, this silence suddenly made her even more sad.
After losing Cui Oriole, she thought she had experienced the heart-rending pain, but she was wrong. The real pain was so extreme that she no longer had the strength to bear the pain. Just like now, she couldn't cry loudly even if she wanted to.
My heart aches but I can no longer feel the pain
At this time, someone pushed open the door of the inner hall. Junjie looked back, then nodded and saluted, stood up and left.
His footsteps were very light and slow, as if he was afraid of disturbing her, but he seemed to be hesitating.
Listening to his voice getting closer and closer, for some reason, Su Qingyi suddenly felt a sense of grievance in her heart, as if a wronged child wanted to express his grievance when he saw an adult approaching.
He approached, but did not step forward. He just stood in front of the bed and looked at her quietly.
Su Qingyi raised her eyes, her eyes blurred by tears. In her sight, Dugu Chen's tall figure faced the light of the setting sun, condescending like a savior, quiet, but cold.
"Chen..." I haven't called her like this for a long time. When I said it out, I felt a little jerky.
Hearing her call him this way, Dugu Chen's Adam's apple rolled slightly and he hesitated to speak.
Su Qingyi couldn't see his hesitation and grief. She stretched out her hand towards Dugu Chen, and her hot tears fell down, "Our child is gone... our child..."
Dugu Chen looked at her and didn't speak for a long time.
Seeing him not saying a word, Su Qingyi suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
"Concubine Mo and concubine Liang, are they yours?" Dugu Chen asked calmly after a long silence.
Listening to his indifferent tone and the first words he said when he saw her, Su Qingyi felt cold in her heart.
She never imagined how far she could hide this matter, and she was not afraid that Mo Bin would tell everything. However, she never thought that with their child gone, this was not what he cared about most.
"Our child is gone." She looked up at him, still holding a glimmer of hope in her heart.
