Two months later ?

Yi Tianlin led his troops to attack King Mo's feudal fiefdom and saw Murong Ning once again in the Duke's Palace.

When Murong Ning was rescued, he was completely tortured.

His body was full of wounds, criss-crossing one after another. These weren't fatal wounds, yet spread all over his body. There was not a trace of good flesh to be seen. His martial arts were crippled, and his eyes had gone blind.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Murong Ning curled up and retreated, his body slightly trembling.

Yi Tianlin had never seen Murong Ning in such a sorry state. He clenched his fist and smashed it into the door frame.

With bloodshot eyes, he turned around and walked towards the house that held King Mo.

After this matter, Murong Ning brought Murong Ning back to the imperial harem, where he arranged for her to live in a remote chamber and a few servants to take care of her.

Yi Tianlin would occasionally come over to see her, but every time, he would never come closer. He would only look from afar, and wouldn't let anyone tell Murong Ning.

Until Murong Ning was found to be pregnant for three months ?

The time was coincidentally the period of time that she had visited King Mo's manor.

When the news reached Yi Tianlin's ears, the emperor flipped the table in the imperial study.

Later ?

Even though the emperor had concealed this matter, the servants of Murong Ning would occasionally take this as an example when they were free.

One day, while these servants were talking, Yi Tianlin heard it and ordered them to pull their tongues out.

Hearing the screams from outside, Murong Ning walked out of the room.

"Why should the emperor be angry with those people?" Why force them to believe what you don't want to believe? "

She could smell the scent of the birth control medicine. In the end, he ? He still didn't want to believe her.

Yi Tianlin stared at the skinny girl for a long time without seeing any emotion from her face.

Murong Ning rubbed his stomach, his tone extremely normal: "Leave the medicine here, you can leave, I'll drink."

Yi Tianlin wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the eunuch who barged in.

"Your majesty, the Queen Empress has broken through. She's about to be born!"

Yi Tianlin hesitated, "Wait for me."

Leaving these two words behind, he rushed to the empress's chambers in the end.

Listening to the footsteps outside that were gradually getting further and further away, Murong Ning laughed, and a teardrop fell into the medicine bowl in front of him, forming layers of ripples.

The eunuch brought the medicine over to Murong Ning, "Miss Ning, please don't make things difficult for us, Miss can drink this."

Murong Ning rubbed his stomach which was getting bigger and closed his eyes. The remnant thoughts were gone, he raised his head and drank the medicine.

She knew she could not protect this child, and she did not want him to come to this world and suffer with her.

On this day, the empress gave birth to a fat and white little prince, but Murong Ning's child was gone.

When Yi Tianlin found out about it, it was already too late.

He didn't understand. The medicine he had people deliver to him was clearly a birth control medicine, so why did it become a birth control medicine?

When he found out that Murong Ning had miscarried and wanted to investigate thoroughly, he found out that the eunuch who delivered the medicine had committed suicide.

But to Murong Ning, he was just a scapegoat.

It didn't matter whether it was the emperor or the empress who couldn't tolerate that child.

In the following nights, Yi Tianlin stayed in Murong Ning's chambers.

He would frequently explain to her while hugging Murong Ning, and would even fantasize about whether their number one child in the future would be a man or a woman.

But Yi Tianlin did not know that every time, Murong Ning would secretly take someone's medicine.

She would rather not have children than have her children die a horrible death again.

Time passed, and the little prince was about to arrive at the full moon. The number of times the Emperor had come gradually decreased, and it seemed that he wouldn't be able to come any longer.

"Miss, that flower bloomed so beautifully, this servant will pick it for you." Chun Xiao smiled as he plucked the flower, and just passed the flower into Murong Ning's hands. When he met Murong Ning's empty eyes, Chun Xiao's smile gradually disappeared.

"Empress, I'm sorry ?"

Murong Ning laughed, and carefully touched the flower petals with one hand.

"Silly girl, what do you mean sorry? The one who said sorry is me, I'll make you suffer alongside me."

Chun Xiao followed her and suffered in this side chamber. Usually, she wouldn't even be able to eat until she was full.

Chun Xiao held onto Murong Ning's hand and cried silently.

She had indeed let Murong Ning down, she had betrayed the Empress!

She had never been one of Murong Ning's people, she had always been one of the empress.

Chun Xiao had approached Murong Ning with her goal in mind from the very beginning, so as to gain Murong Ning's trust and wait for the right time to give Murong Ning a fatal blow!
