At this moment, Dongfang Ziqing lowered her eyes. Her heart had already turned from worry for Qin Xue to sorrow for her love. Even if her eyes didn't show any of her emotional entanglement, her heart was in pain, and every day she felt more pain.

If Emperor Shen Zhui really didn't love her, wouldn't it be a mistake for her to marry him?

There was no time to care about Dongfang Ziqing's emotions. Xuanyuan Chen Mo silently followed beside Dongfang Ziqing, his mind was fully occupied with Qin Xue's current state.

It had been three years, but his plan was still not mature enough. It was not time to make a move yet. In this way, he could only continue to torture her by her side!

However, he was powerless to do anything as a spectator. He couldn't even give her a single glance. He had to be extremely cautious!

The empress's visit to the Dongfang palace was undoubtedly a big event. Almost at the same time Xuanyuan Chenmo and Dongfang Ziqing entered the gate, there were already servants waiting in line for the empress, and Dongfang Shuo and his son were also waiting in the courtyard.

"This subject greets Your Majesty and Empress." The father and son duo took a step apart and knelt in the courtyard, performing a great kowtow.

"Father, no need to be so courteous. Please rise." He quickly helped Dongfang Shuo Tian up, and Dongfang Ziqing took a step back to stand with Xuanyuan Chen Mo. We are all family, why do father and brother always give such a great gift? " A soft voice, no longer coquettish, but a routine repetition of every time home, to the family said 'polite' words.

In the three years she had been the empress, Dongfang Ziqing had changed from a worry-free little girl to a young girl with a heart full of worries. Although she still had a bright smile on her face and loved to play, her heart was always heavy and her eyes were sad. Even to her own father, she was no longer sticky. Instead, she called him "father" to show her respect.

This was something that Xuanyuan Chen Mo had never noticed. But his niece was like a father, and Dong Fang Shuo Tian could already feel it, so naturally he felt heartache, but there was nothing he could do.

Looking at Dongfang Zihan's sad face, Dongfang Ziqing let out a heartbroken sigh, and gently asked: "Elder brother, sister-in-law, she … "It's alright!"

"I thank the empress for her concern. My wife is fine, she just needs more rest." Dong Fang Zihan's expression was grave, his expression not as relaxed as his words, but his respectful attitude did not slack in the slightest.

"Big brother and sister-in-law are both blessed people, they will definitely be extremely negative." Dong Fang Ziqing forced a smile as she consoled herself, hiding her emotions deep within her heart. However, looking at Dong Fang Zi Qing's smile, Dong Fang Zi Han was unable to respond with a smile. Brother, can I go see my sister-in-law now? Will it disturb her rest? " She didn't want to be entangled in this issue any longer, so Dongfang Ziqing directly stated her purpose for coming.

"This subject thanks the empress on behalf of my wife." Once again cupping his hands and bowing, Dongfang Zihan's attitude was very cautious. Dong Fang Zihan stepped aside and made a respectful gesture, saying, "Your majesty, esteemed empress, please."

Seeing Dongfang Zihan's cautious attitude, Dongfang Ziqing could only silently sigh. However, they had already gotten used to this kind of interaction. As long as they truly cared about each other, this model would follow the rules of etiquette.

But, even if Dongfang Ziqing was worried about Dongfang Zihan, she couldn't find the pain that would really make him give up the chance to be a father! No matter how many children they will have in the future, it won't be this one!

However, she …

As she turned her head to look at Xuanyuan Chen Mo, Dongfang Ziqing silently lowered her head. In this life, she might not even have the qualifications to be a mother!

With a helpless smile in her heart, Dongfang Ziqing followed Dongfang Zihan's lead and wordlessly walked towards Qin Xue's room. Because of folk customs, men were not allowed to enter when women were small, lest they be tainted with bad luck. Therefore, the only person who could enter was Dongfang Ziqing. As for Xuanyuan Chenmo, no matter how much he worried about Qin Xue, he could only leave with the Dongfang family's father and son.

As for Qin Xue, he would naturally find an opportunity to pacify her. However, they couldn't let the outsiders know about it. And this outsider included everyone from the Dongfang family …

The three year deadline that he had agreed upon with Qin Xue had arrived, so it was time for him to speed up his plans. As the emperor, he definitely could not let his beloved woman suffer even a little bit!

It was time to make the Dongfang Family disappear and return to their original starting point …

It was night. The night wind blew gently, and the shadows of the trees swayed with a strange influence. The dusky world was shrouded by a cold aura. How could this word be cold?

However, on such a moonlit night, the strict security of the Prime Minister's Estate was met with an even more secretive situation.

Looking at the man sleeping soundly under the sedative, Qin Xue coldly stood up, put on a random coat, and walked out of the room.

Although Xuanyuan Chenmo did not come to the Dongfang palace to meet her, there was a secret agreement between them. That was, if they were to appear in the Dongfang family, they would meet in the back garden that night to discuss the big plan … Of course, the most important thing was to explain love!

Closing the door to her room, the snow-white Qin Xue leaped into the air a few times before disappearing into the darkness of the night to meet her lover.

At the same time, in another room, Dongfang Ziqing also fell into a very innocent and sweet sleep.

Under the quiet night sky, the shadows of people could be seen. In less than the time it took to make a cup of tea, the bright yellow figure and the beautiful snow-white figure had already overlapped and tightly embraced each other, as if they wanted to crush each other to the bone and cherish each other.

After a long time, the man finally opened up some distance between them, allowing them to clearly see each other's faces …

"Xue'er, you've lost weight again." As he spoke tenderly, Xuanyuan Chen Mo bent his head and kissed Qin Xue's ice-cold nose, wanting to give her some warmth.

"Brother Chen Mo, how much longer do you need?" Closing her eyes, Qin Xue choked out a question, "How much longer before I can return to your side? "I really …" He couldn't hold on any longer!

Qin Xue silently sobbed as she swallowed her unfinished words. The hazy moonlight shone onto her face, and two lines of tears flickered with a cold light. They slowly flowed down her face and silently fell on her snow-white clothes. They quickly solidified into ice crystals that glittered …

"Xue'er …" As he tenderly called out Qin Xue's name, Xuanyuan Chen Mo held her once again in front of his chest and softly said, "I will protect your integrity and will definitely not let you suffer anymore. Soon, the opportunity would come! "You can return to me after the Eastern Residence is exterminated!"

"What about her?" Embracing Xuanyuan Chen Mo's tight and narrow waist, Qin Xue whispered.

"..." "I will deal with it as I see fit." At the mention of Dongfang Ziqing, Xuanyuan Chen Mo hesitated for a moment.

They had been married for three years. Even though they didn't have the actual relationship of husband and wife, they had been together day and night. How could he bear to kill Dongfang Ziqing who was like family!?

However, if he wanted to eradicate the Dongfang family, how could Dongfang Ziqing still be left alive?!

At that time, even if he could let Dongfang Ziqing go, how could she not hate him?

"Did the Emperor fall for her?" Lifting her head, Qin Xue frowned and asked. Her eyes glimmered with tears, showing a delicate and gentle posture.

"I only have Xue'er in my heart. Could it be that Xue'er doesn't believe me?" "I swear to the Queen of Sky that I will only love Xue'er in this life. If I break this oath, I will suffer the wrath of heaven!"
