As Li Fei heard her words, she lifted her head to look at the surrounding people, including Yang Fei and a few other girls. Finally, her gaze landed on my face.

She looked at me with hostility and haughtiness before quickly moving away. She said lightly, "Your Majesty has always praised talent and wisdom in front of chenqie. Please accompany the imperial concubine back to the palace. With you by her side, this imperial concubine can feel at ease."

She had an objection against me in the first place, and even more so didn't want me to go alongside them. I felt that it didn't matter if I went or not, and immediately lowered my head and said, "Yes, esteemed imperial concubine Li."

She had the palace maids support her as she went out to explain. In a short while, a few imperial concubines had climbed onto the palanquin, and a large number of imperial guards had followed to protect them.

The imperial concubine walked over with the support of the mama, and said with a weak smile, "Zhiqiu, I'm really sorry. I'm sorry that I have to trouble you not to go."

I lowered my head and said indifferently, "It's nothing."

He didn't want to be with her the most. He wanted to be with her all the time.

"Did you see Xia Junchang?" She said somewhat plaintively.

I jumped in shock and turned around to see that the palace maid beside me had already retreated a short distance away. She was supported by the mama by my side. Her previously weak face was now filled with calmness.

I looked at the snow on the ground. "Imperial Concubine, can we get on the palanquin and return to the palace?"

"Didn't you see it?" she said again.

I was a little impatient with her for bringing this up in front of me all the time. If you can't let it go, you can go by yourself. I have nothing to do with you.

He grew colder and colder as he said, "The wind is strong here. If there's nothing else from the imperial concubine, please allow me to get on the palanquin to avoid the wind." You will only complain in front of me. Who do you think I am to you? I hate you to the extreme.

Unfortunately, she went on: "I won't be able to see him. I know Zhi Qiu, wherever he goes back, and once he enters the palace, I'll ask the palace maids to go and invite him over. But he won't come, he even told the palace maids that he hates me, and what do you think he hates me for? "He doesn't like me. Will he hate me?"

"Enough." I couldn't help it.

"Imperial Concubine Mu, please remember your status. There's no need to tell me about what happened with Imperial Concubine in the future." It was really enough.

However, she laughed: "Zhiqiu, what are you angry about? What are you mean? I'm not even afraid, so what are you afraid of? "Are you guilty? You clearly saw him that night, right?"

She was truly angered. "So what if I saw it? Are you satisfied yet? Imperial Concubine, I'm pregnant and can't blow the wind. Please forgive me for taking my leave first." Do you understand? I am carrying the Emperor's child now, I am not like you, you can ignore it, I want to care, I am not mad with you.

Imperial Concubine Mu said, "Yun Zhiqiu, I truly hate you."

I smiled and looked at the sky with a little sigh.

Why should you hate me? Why can't I hate you? She was an unreasonable person.

He sat on the palanquin and waited for some time before saying that he would return to the palace. Even the servants and imperial guards could only return 200 to 300 people.

Her palanquin was in front, and mine was behind.

I was still a little annoyed and couldn't sleep no matter what. I felt that Imperial Concubine Mu was really a hateful person. She clearly knew that she couldn't love someone, but she didn't let anyone else go.

I can't be as deep in love as her, but it's really a little strange. The emperor's love for Imperial Concubine Mu is something that everyone in the palace knows.

I don't want to think about it, these questions really hurt my brain.

The sedan chair suddenly slammed heavily to the side. A shout came from outside. "There's an assassin. Protect the imperial concubine."

I jumped in shock and grabbed onto the side of the palanquin to stabilize my body and peeked my head out. On the way down the mountain, there was actually a group of black-clothed people who didn't care for their lives. There were quite a few of them.

The palace maid rushed over in a hurry, her beautiful face turning pale. "Scholar, this is bad, there's an assassin. The road ahead has been cut off, we have to return quickly."

I still didn't know what had happened. The palace maid pulled the curtain closer so that I couldn't see. She urgently called the sedan bearer, "Hurry and go back. Someone, come and protect our master."

As we fought intensely outside, I also sucked in a breath of cold air. I really don't know why there are assassins here. However, it was more important for him to stay alive now. He could only let his father-in-law carry him towards the back quickly.

The heavy palanquin fell to the ground, causing me to be confused. Fortunately, my hands kept pointing at the other side of the palanquin, preventing me from getting hurt.

It was a woman's voice. I think it was a palace maid. She grabbed her hand and said, "Let's go." Hurry up and pull me out, I really can't stand up for a while.

How could her hand be so cold? When I looked up and saw her black clothes squatting in front of the palanquin, her black eyes glaring fiercely at me. She held my hand with one hand and held the dagger in front of me with the other.

"Hur hur." She suddenly laughed softly, like a ghost that penetrated deep into one's heart.

The sound of the wind outside and the sound of fighting could not be heard. It was so quiet that it was only her own heartbeat and her cold smile that seemed to contain extreme pity.

"What do you want?" I said, shaking my lips.

She then sneered, "Don't blame me for being impolite. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for getting too much of the emperor's favor."

When I said those words, my heart went cold. It was obvious that they knew my identity.

It was just a small talent, was it worth it for them to do something so fearless? If he did that, he would be throwing his life behind him, and he would be ready to kill.

I shook my head, and her eyes flashed with a cold light. She pointed her dagger at my stomach, and I shook my head and wailed, "No, you can stab me in the face, you can break my hand, don't hurt my child, please, it's my face, no one will ever look at me again, you, please, ah..." Quickly, I let go of the other hand that was holding onto the edge of the sedan chair, trying to protect my stomach. She was faster, however, and I screamed. The sharp pain came from my stomach, and no matter how much I begged her, she still mercilessly stabbed the dagger into my liver. I covered it with my hand with all my strength, so as not to let anything happen to the child.

There was a great hatred in me that made me look into her merciless eyes and the dagger that was still bleeding.

I cried out, and then I bowed my head and bit down hard on the hand that held me.

I'm not afraid of anything. Kill me, you heartless man.

She pulled her hand back in pain, and a knife in my neck made me slump down in the overturned litter. My mouth was full of blood. I looked at my stomach that was still flowing from my fingers, and no matter how I pressed on it, it would still flow. My tears also started to fall.

Help me, I cried. This was a cowardice and fear that I had never felt before.

Save me, save my children.

The curtain opened and the palace maid, her hair disheveled, knelt in the snow and looked at me and sobbed.

"Save me!" I cried for them.

But they were frightened and said, "You're the only one, the imperial guards went after the assassin. You don't need to be afraid, master. The imperial physician over at the imperial concubine's side will come right away."

I don't want to hear this, save me quickly, I'm in so much pain, I'm afraid that if I'm a step too late, my child won't be able to be saved.

I don't want to wait, not even a moment.

"Don't be afraid, Master. He's lost a lot of blood, so you can't move him."

It really made me despair. I looked longingly at the narrow sky through the open curtain of the sedan chair. I just want to keep my child, the one I care about the most, the person I'm closest to, can't I have such a small request?

"Zhiqiu."

Who is calling me? Such a powerful voice pierced through the wind and snow and brought a force to my ears.

"Third Marquis, you can't go near the master. The emperor has already received the news and will be right there." It was the voice of the imperial guards.

He bent over to look at me from the side of the fallen palanquin, lying in a pool of blood, his eyes full of surprise and heartache.

"Save me," I implored sadly. He stretched out a bloodied hand to catch him, "Jun Tang, save my child! I'm in so much pain!"

They were all waiting, but I couldn't wait. I couldn't wait, and if I could climb, I'd crawl down the hill and find a doctor and not wait here.

His eyes darkened, and he took my bloody hand in his and squeezed it hard enough to make me feel his determination. "Don't be afraid, Zhiqiu." He climbed in and carried me out.

"Third Marquis." The palace maid and the imperial guards all kneeled down, "Third Prince, please let go of Yun Zhenren. The emperor has ordered his subordinates to guard Yun Zhenjun properly. Don't move recklessly and injure him. His Majesty will arrive soon."

I was afraid that he would really let me go and weakly said, "Save me, Jun Tang. I don't want to wait. Imperial Concubine has an imperial physician by her side."

He didn't stop, instead, he pulled me closer and immediately left on his horse. The imperial guards were still persuading him, but he turned a deaf ear to them. Did she bleed without a doctor? Just protect her like that. Scram to the side and don't say another word in front of This King. Otherwise, don't blame This King for being rude to all of you. " He roared with incomparable rage.

Then he handed me a piece of clothing, wrapped me in it, wrapped my stomach around it, and hopped on the horse, one hand on my belly, the other on the reins. I whispered in my ear, "Zhiqiu, don't be afraid. I'll take you to see a doctor. It'll be fine."

At this moment, I don't know why, the tears flowed more and more ferociously.

"My stomach hurts." I cried.

He pressed his hand harder, to make me forget the pain, to put me in his strong arms.

I could not see the change in the scenery. I could only hear the wind whistling and the hooves clattering. No matter who I was in the arms of right now, I had no other time to think about it. I cared more about my children.

The horse galloped down the hill. He lifted up my clothes to let me breathe, and at the foot of the hill, not far from me, I saw the heavy sedan chair of the imperial guards.

As we got closer, I heard her call out loudly, "Jun Tang, I heard that Zhi Qiu was assassinated. Come here quickly. There's an imperial physician. Hand Zhi Qiu over to me."

I thought he would stop. I was relieved to have a doctor.

Who knows he still did not stop. I was anxious, so weak that my lips were trembling and I couldn't say anything. The horse was jolting after all, and along the way, I felt as if the blood in my stomach had never stopped.

A horse caught up from behind. Someone said in a hurry, "Third Prince, please calm down. There is an imperial physician here who can save Yun Cai. You must not miss the opportunity."

But he said, "Zhiqiu, don't be afraid. I will bring you to find Lin Luoshui. I trust him."

I think that I believe him too, so I'm not in a hurry. I just want to get to the capital as soon as possible.

He didn't stop, and I heard the hoofbeats behind me, and then he didn't stop either.

The person behind the wind shouted, "Third Marquis, quickly stop. The emperor is over there."

He did not stop and continued running all the way until he reached the outskirts of the capital.

My consciousness had already fainted.

If the child could not be saved, if his life could not be preserved, dying in his arms could not be considered a form of divine retribution.

The pain woke me up, and I found myself lying on a soft patch. The pain was that my clothes were stuck together with my blood, and Rinloran was carefully removing them.

"Lighter." Xia Junchang looked at me nervously, "Zhiqiu, you don't have to be afraid. You don't have to be afraid of anything now."

She wanted to smile at him gratefully, but she didn't even have the strength to do so.

The cut tore at the wound, and the pain made me bite my lip.

Lin Luoshui took the needle and pierced it into some of my acupoints. Then, I felt that it wasn't as painful as before, but my body was still full of fear. I nervously and worriedly watched from the side.

"Luckily it wasn't a fatal injury. Otherwise, with so much blood lost, it would have been strange if something like this didn't happen. Are all the palace maids by your side all dead?" Rinloran raised his head and glared at me.

Xia Junchang said, "Don't ask her, Luo Shui. Hurry and let her see if her child is alright. They care about their children the most. "

Yes, I care about it the most. You still know me like this.

When I asked the ladies for help, they seemed to be even more at a loss than I was. I could only wait. When I reached out my bloodied hand to grab Xia Juntang's, I knew he would save me.

Lin Luoshui suddenly let out a light sigh, then glared at Xia Junchang and said with some dissatisfaction, "You really will kill me. Did anyone tell you to leave Zhi Qiu behind?"

He nodded, then said, "Yes, but I believe you are better than them. Hurry up and don't let Zhiqiu worry about you, and don't let her hurt you."

He took the handkerchief and was about to wipe the blood off my hands when Lin Luoshui suddenly called out, "Jun Tang."

He thought of something and smiled in vain. Sorrow was written between his brows, and his outstretched hand was pulled back weakly and stiffly. He turned his head to a little girl and said, "Clean Zhi Qiu up a bit, and make it lighter. Don't hurt her."
