The ending of the ninety-fourth Qiu's family (must-see finale)

  "......?!". Qiu's face was shocked. Whether the emperor comes or not is irrelevant, but why would he use that kind of excuse? What does 'she doesn't cherish her own body?' mean? The facts shouldn't be like this!

  "Are you two talking nonsense?" She looked at the two palace maids, their pale faces as white as paper, their scarlet pupils looking particularly eerie. "Obviously it was Princess Cheng who pushed me and caused my miscarriage, but you're actually reversing right and wrong?"

  Upon hearing this, the two palace maids were immediately shocked. Has...has Empress Deok-on gone mad? How can she say such things? Such words cannot be spoken casually.

  Moreover, when Xianfei got into trouble, it was the Empress and Guifei who sent her back to Shuiguetang together. No one mentioned anything about Cheng Wangfei doing something like that. How can such things be spread around randomly?

  The two palace maids knelt down on the ground together and hastily disassociated themselves: "Your Majesty, we know nothing."

  They have been staying in the Shuiguo Palace all day today, so they don't know how Xianfei got into trouble.

  But Xianfei's words made them feel terrified. Wasn't it because the dragon heir was gone that Xianfei became mentally unstable?

  Just as the two were secretly guessing in their hearts, Qiu suddenly threw a hard pillow at them.

  "Get out! Both of you, get out of here for Ben Gong! Get out quickly!"

  Upon hearing this, the two palace maids quickly scrambled to their feet and fled in a flurry, as if being chased by an evil spirit.

  The grand and luxurious bedroom was quiet, with only one person's breathing sound left.

  Qiu bit her lip, anger and resentment all over her face, making her pale and haggard complexion even more ferocious.

  She couldn't figure out why it had become like this?

  She was clearly pushed down the stairs by Bai, and there were so many people present at that time. Now someone is telling her that she fell down the stairs herself and had a miscarriage.

  Who is helping the White House cover up?

  Xiao Huanghou!!!

  It's her!

  In the harem, only Empress Xiao had the greatest power, and only she could use her power to make Bai Shi so unscrupulous and even turn black and white upside down.

  But why did Empress Xiao want to help Bai Shi? Wasn't she afraid of offending her?!

  His fingernails dug deep into his palms, and Qiu's silver teeth almost shattered.

  How hateful! After all the efforts I made, it was all to make that White family lose their reputation. I thought with so many people around, they would be able to testify for her and let that White family be despised by everyone for generations to come, never able to turn things around... but unexpectedly, someone came along and covered everything up...

  How hateful! It's really hateful!

  Rubbing her own belly, Qiu Shi was even more heartbroken and unwilling to accept it.

  Can it be that our own child is gone just like that?!

  ……

  On a spring night, the gentle breeze is slightly cold. The night of Shuǐ Yuè Gōng is more peaceful than usual. The soft wind blows by, making everything seem especially clear.

  The magnificent bedroom, under the illumination of the palace lanterns, although bright and white as day, but that light seemed to be more gloomy and oppressive than usual, with an inexplicable hint of chill.

  Suddenly, a palace lantern in the corner of the wall went out. In an instant, the brightness of the bedroom dimmed slightly.

  Lying in bed, Qiu's eyes were open, although her body was weak and frail, but she had no sleepiness, her empty and lifeless gaze staring at a certain place in the void.

  A lamp suddenly went out, and it seemed that she didn't care at all. But for some reason, the second, third, fourth... lamps went out one after another, until only one palace lamp was left, faintly emitting a weak light, which shone in the vast bedroom, seemingly insignificant. The vast and empty bedroom was suddenly enveloped in darkness, and the already oppressive air became even colder, with a hint of a strange smell hidden within.

  Chilly and desolate!

  Such an obvious change, Qiu's gaze moved slightly, but just as she came back to her senses, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew in from the window frame, blowing up the curtains in the bedroom, swaying ceaselessly...

  "Yan Er..."

  Suddenly, a faint and low voice came, echoing softly in the bedroom, with a hint of reverberation, sounding somewhat distant.

  Qiu's body stiffened for an instant.

  "Yan Er..."

  Just as Qiu thought it was just her imagination, the faint and cold voice sounded again, this time longer and colder, closer to her.

  Suddenly, Qiu Shi's body sat up straight as if stimulated by something. His pupils suddenly enlarged, and a look of horror and shock flashed out from his suddenly opened eyes. His hands grasped the bedding tightly, and his body unconsciously shifted towards the bed.

  "Yan Er..."

  This time, the sound was longer, colder, closer and even more eerie.

  "Who?!" Qiu's suddenly opened eyes looked around, but the dark and deep bedroom made one's heart tremble with fear. Only the curtains floating in the wind could be seen, but not even half a person's shadow was visible.

  "Who is it that's haunting my palace?!". She sensed the eerie and terrifying abnormality at this moment, her voice was sharp and trembling. This familiar voice she hadn't heard for over twenty years, she wouldn't forget, but she also couldn't believe it would resound beside her.

  After all, it has been peaceful for over twenty years...

  "Yan'er......" The gloomy low call was getting closer and closer.

  The empty palace is desolate because of the echo, and it seems like such voices are everywhere.

  Qiu's face almost collapsed, and her palms were already sweating, her eyes filled with panic, but she still raised her neck and refused to admit the source of this voice.

  "Who is it?! Come out before me! If you continue to hide and make a racket, be careful that I will order someone to drag you out and execute you!"

  "Yan'er... it's me..." The voice was getting closer and closer, "Yan'er... don't you even recognize your own sister?"

  Qiu's body was like being struck by lightning, his hair standing on end, and his pupils nearly falling out of their sockets.

  She didn't even have time to react, when suddenly a white figure floated from the door of the bedroom to her bedside, looking at the pair of feet suspended in mid-air and the familiar figure, she let out a sudden "ah" and instantly buried her head under the covers.

  "Don't... don't come over... don't come over... ah..."

  That quilt was shaking non-stop, and the sound coming from under the quilt was fragmented and filled with terror.

  "Yan'er... sister misses you..." By the bedside, a white-clad figure floated and swayed, as if unable to land. That head of black hair hung down to her shoulders, and in the night wind blowing through the window lattice, it fluttered wildly, adding an air of eeriness.

  Qiu Shi Meng shivered under the quilt for half a day, and her heart almost jumped out of her mouth. It's said that ghosts can't walk, but she saw with her own eyes that it floated over with its feet off the ground.

  The figure under the white clothes is still the same as it was back then, seemingly unchanged. And that voice, she can't forget it no matter what...

  Although she hadn't seen her face, she could already be certain of the other's identity... That was her twin sister Qiū Shuǐ Yíng.

  Although she didn't believe it, at this moment, that familiar figure pierced her eardrum, making her have no choice but to believe.

  After a long time, she didn't hear any movement again, and her heart calmed down slightly. Fortunately, she thought that her body was too weak and might have had an illusion. So, trembling all over, she lifted the corner of the quilt with both hands shaking...

  "Yan'er..." The sudden, gloomy and eerie voice by the bedside echoed once again.

  "Ah! Ah!" This time, she was certain that she wasn't dreaming or hallucinating, but her sister had really come back to find her!

  "Yan'er... it's been over twenty years since we sisters last saw each other... come and chat with your sister for a bit..."

  "Ah! Ah!" Qiu's voice trembled with fear as she clutched the quilt even tighter, "Leave! Leave! I don't want to talk to you - ah!"

  "Yan'er... sister misses you... come out and keep sister company for a chat... come on..."

  A loud "Come on!" scared the Qiu family even more, as if they were afraid of being pounced upon. She suddenly lifted up the quilt and stared at the white shadow in horror, scolding: "Autumn Water Ying, aren't you dead? Why have you come back?"

  "Yan'er... didn't you get me killed? I came back just to take you with me..."

  Qiu's pupils dilated to their largest, staring at the woman with the same appearance as herself. The pale face seemed to emit a greenish glow in the dimly lit bedroom, so eerie that she suddenly broke out in cold sweat all over her body. She waved her hands wildly and let out a sharp scream towards the white figure.

  "It wasn't me! It wasn't me! I didn't kill you——"

  "Yan'er... I died so unjustly... King Yan won't let me reincarnate... wants me to bring the murderer who killed me down before letting me be reborn... Yan'er... come with sister..."

  "Ah! It wasn't me... I didn't kill you..." Qiu Shuiyan tried to back away, but suddenly found herself unable to move, her entire body seemingly paralyzed, feeling as if she had lost control of her own limbs. Apart from letting out a blood-curdling scream, she didn't know what else she could do.

  "Yan'er... it was you who gave me the poisoned wine... it was you who poisoned me and Zhi Hai... do you want me to call Zhi Hai over so he can confront you in person..."

  "Ah—ah—" Qiu's head shook wildly in panic, as if afraid of seeing another one, tightly closing her eyes, and waving her hands randomly, fearing something was approaching.

  "Yan'er... I died so miserably... Look at me, my whole body is festering..."

  "Ah..." Suddenly, Qiu Shi knelt down in front of Bai Ying, tightly closing her eyes and continuously kowtowing, fearfully begging for mercy, "Sister, I was wrong! Sister, I was wrong! Please don't scare Shui Yan anymore! Please...!"

  "Yan'er... you're so heartless... in this life, I only have you as my family... how could you treat me like this? Yan'er... I won't be able to die with my eyes closed... sister is unwilling to leave you behind... sister wants to take you with her..."

  "Sister, I'm begging you, spare me! Sister, I was wrong—" Qiu's head was buried in the bed, her voice full of sobs.

  "Yan'er... I won't give up... I won't give up... Return my child to me... Give back my child..." Bai Ying's cold voice suddenly took on a few shades of severity.

  Qiu's two hands were holding his head and shaking even harder: "Sister, Yu'er is yours, I didn't take him away, it was the Emperor who let me raise him..."

  "You're lying!" Suddenly, that cold and gloomy voice became sharp, and when it reached Qiu's ears, she felt a chill run down her spine, making her so terrified that she didn't even dare to breathe.

  "Sister, I was wrong! I was wrong! I'll never dare again! Please forgive me! Please spare me!"

  "So you can admit that it was you who killed me and Zhi Hai?"

  "Sister, I'm sorry! I was wrong! I really was wrong! I didn't mean to harm you all..."

  When Qiu said this sentence, the other party suddenly had no voice.

  She trembled for half a day, feeling that the atmosphere was somewhat off, so she plucked up her courage and slowly lifted her head, her hands covering her face slowly opening, her tightly closed eyes slowly prying open her eyelids. The cautious, terrified, and uneasy expression on her face compared to her usual stern and serious one made her look utterly ridiculous and laughable.

  This glance, in an instant, left her stunned and frozen.

  The bedroom suddenly became bright again, but what stunned her was not the change in the environment, but the person who had appeared in the bedroom at some unknown time.

  Xia Gao stood at the bedside, wearing a majestic yellow dragon robe, his cold and stern expression seemed to be immersed in a thousand-year-old icy pool. His gaze was fixed tightly on her, like a sharp sword that could pierce her heart at any moment. Even though he didn't move, the violent aura surrounding him was enough to make people's hair stand on end with fear.

  By his side, Ye Mo's eyes were also fixed on him with a similar fierce gaze. Compared to Xia Gao, he seemed even more agitated and furious, the hand by his side clenched into a tight fist, trembling.

  Behind the father and son were three women.

  Bai Xinzhen sat on the beautiful couch opposite the bed, while Xue Ying was serving her tea. Just now she had dragged out her voice to speak, and felt that her mouth was dry and thirsty, so she wanted to moisten her throat, fearing that it would be unbearable for a while.

  And there was a woman dressed in white, with long hair scattered about, who was bowing her head and scratching her face with her hand. Then, a piece of skin slowly peeled off from her face, revealing an exquisite doll-like face.

  At this point, Qiu Shi was foolish again and knew what had happened.

  Facing the father and son's murderous gaze, she heaved her chest and let out a low growl: "You actually joined forces to deceive me!"

  She never thought she would encounter such a thing today. After all, neither of the father and son is an ordinary person, how could they do something so unseemly?

  The fact in front of her made her have no choice but to believe that she was indeed being plotted against by this father and son!

  Looking at Qiu Shi, who was still arrogant despite being on the verge of death, Xia Gaotie's face turned blue with rage as he gnashed his teeth and rebuked: "Qiu Shuiyan, do you admit your guilt? I treated you with such trust back then, but it turns out you're a venomous woman, and today I will avenge Yun'er!"

  From a distance, Bai Xinzhu could feel Xia Gaoli's intimidating aura and was afraid that he would scare himself to death instead of scaring Qiu Shi to death. So she got up and walked over to stand beside him, saying: "Your Majesty, let me handle this matter. You and Mo Yu go sit over there first. I still have some things to say to her. Besides, killing her right away would be too easy for her. She's had more than 20 years of good days, she should pay a price for that."

  Xia Gao Han nodded silently with a cold face.

  Bai Xin dragged her past, pulling the weak her to his front, his eyes suddenly cold, and in front of everyone, he raised his hand, a slap fell mercilessly on Qiu Shi's pale face.

  "Bang!" A crisp sound echoed throughout the bedroom, and Qiu Shi's head was instantly knocked askew.

  "Qiu Shuiyan, this slap is what you gave me back then, today I'm returning it to you!"

  "Slap!" Another crisp sound made Qiu's face shift from left to right, the force was so fierce and the hand was so fast that Qiu couldn't resist at all, let alone being frightened and already feeling a bit weak.

  "This slap is your interest!"

  Looking at the two streams of blood flowing from Qiu's nose, Bai Xincheng spoke again in a cold voice.

  If it were her mother-in-law, Qiu Shuiyan, that would be a different story. She could still tolerate her for Mo Yu's sake, but she wasn't. Now it was time to settle this account once and for all!

  The hand that was grasping Qiu's collar loosened, and she fell limply onto the bed, her pale cheeks bearing clear palm prints. However, her eyes gleamed with ferocity and savagery, revealing her unyielding resentment and anger.

  He took a step forward, pulling Bai Xin in front of him, and grasped her hands in his palms. Feeling her trembling hands due to excitement, he looked at her bright red palms, and his piercing gaze grew even colder and more menacing.

  "Qiu Shuiyan, I'll give you a chance to tell the truth about how you murdered my mother and King Beiyuan. If you're willing to confess, I can let you die quickly with your body intact. Otherwise, don't blame me for flaying you alive!"

  His blood-curdling voice made Qiu's body tremble suddenly, but he suddenly closed his eyes, as if playing dead.

  Seeing this, Bai Xinzhen handed the inkstone to him and pulled him back: "Don't be polite to her, can you? She now hates us so much that she doesn't even have time to breathe, how could she possibly listen to your words? Let's not rush, dealing with such a vicious person requires patience. There is some flesh on her body, we can cut off one piece every day, are we afraid of not being able to torture her to death? Besides, whether she speaks or not, she will have to pay for her crimes against her mother-in-law, so save your energy and don't waste words on her."

  "Bai Xincheng, don't go too far!" Qiu Shi suddenly sat up straight, her blood-red eyes staring at her back like a poisonous liquid, her pale face twisted and distorted, looking as if she was about to pounce on her like a fierce ghost.

  "Xue Ying, bind this poisonous woman for me! I want to cut her flesh piece by piece to offer sacrifices to the spirits of Yan Er and Bei Yuan Wang!" Xia Gao suddenly gave a cold order. This detestable woman, he indeed couldn't let her off too easily! Whether she spoke or not, it wouldn't change his decision to chop her into ten thousand pieces.

  "Yes!" Blood Shadow responded expressionlessly, immediately walking over, and somehow already had a rope in her hand. She didn't even bat an eyelid at Qiu Shi's shocked and terrified appearance, directly dragging him off the bed and throwing him to the ground like trash. Her icy gaze didn't flicker as she quickly tied Qiu Shi up with five knots.

  "Ah……no……Your Majesty, spare my life……Your Majesty, spare my life……" At this point, Qiu Shi had lost all her composure and was trembling with fear. Moreover, Xue Ying's hands and feet were not gentle at all, his stiff and efficient movements were like those of someone binding a wild beast, which was unbearable for someone like Qiu Shi who had always been pampered. The pain on her face was nothing compared to the fact that her entire body felt like it was being broken in two, causing her to beg for mercy.

  "Drag him away!" Xia Gao's eyes didn't even flicker, let alone show any sympathy. In those deep, dark pupils, there was only a thick killing intent and hatred, nothing else.

  "Spare my life, Your Majesty... spare my life..." Madam Qiu begged while gazing pleadingly in Yan Moyu's direction, "Moyu, I'm your aunt! Can you please spare your aunt's life? Considering how well I've taken care of you all these years and treated you kindly, can't you please spare me?"

  Yan Mo tightly clenched his fists, his eyes releasing a chilling glare as he stared at the disheveled woman: "Aunt? You're also worthy?! I've said it before, if you're willing to tell the truth, I can spare your life. But if you continue to be so obstinate, don't blame me for personally torturing you to death!"

  Qiu's tears fell down, perhaps knowing that the situation was already hopeless. She suddenly turned to Yan Mo and begged: "Mo, don't kill my sister-in-law, okay? I'm begging you... please don't kill my sister-in-law..."

  Everyone's eyes were fixed on her.

  Qiu's body was still shaking, and the sharp voice suddenly became low:

  "My sister brought me to the capital with King Beiyuan, fearing that I would be bullied and have no one to rely on in Beiyuan. She knew that King Beiyuan and my sister were only nominal husband and wife, and they had always lived separately... I also knew that King Beiyuan liked my sister... At that time, I liked King Beiyuan, thinking that with a face similar to my sister's, he would like me too. So I deliberately got close to him... That one time, he was drunk, and my sister had just given birth and couldn't take care of him, so I took her place in caring for him, thinking he would mistake me for my sister... But I failed, and King Beiyuan even saw through my intentions."

  "Because of my sister's face, Beiyuan Wang didn't say anything, but he secretly wanted to send me away. I accidentally overheard him talking to his subordinates and felt very resentful in my heart. Following my sister, I don't have to worry about food or clothing, she will take care of everything for me. If I were sent away, I know that the future days would not be easy to pass. At that moment, I was particularly hateful, hating the unfairness of heaven, we are twin sisters born in the same year, month and day, why can my sister not only give birth to a prince for the emperor, but also make Beiyuan Wang treat her with such favor? I also hated Beiyuan Wang's ruthlessness towards me, even if he really didn't have anything with my sister, I am still my sister's own younger sister, how could he be so heartless towards me? I live in his mansion, helping my sister take care of things, I work diligently, but it's all because of my sister's existence that makes him not see me at all, and even wants me to lead a wandering life..."

  "One day, I took advantage of him getting drunk again, wanting to make raw rice into cooked rice, so he couldn't shirk responsibility. But I didn't expect his willpower to be so strong, no matter how I seduced him, he didn't react, so I harbored resentment. Seeing that he was about to wake up, I put medicine in the tea water and fed it to him...I thought that as long as he died, there would be no one who could drive me away, and I could continue to enjoy wealth and glory by my sister's side."

  "Sister seems weak and gullible, but in reality she is very stubborn. She doesn't believe that Beiyuan Wang would suddenly die... She found out I had been to Beiyuan Wang's room, so she started suspecting me and didn't care about our sisterly relationship, wanting to bring me to justice."

  "It was she who was too ruthless, I am her own sister, how could she treat me like this for the sake of a man? I had a quarrel with her because I couldn't bear it, so I...I also had the intention to kill her...and then said that she followed him in order to repay North Origin King's kindness..."

  Qiu slowly spoke out, tears gushing out of her eyes like a spring, streaming down her pale cheeks.

  But for her, among the people present, apart from being shocked and resentful, no one felt sympathy for her current helplessness and embarrassment.

  Apart from Liu Xue Lan, everyone present knew that Qiu Shi was arrogant and bullied others on a daily basis. What's unimaginable is that her heart is actually so narrow-minded and despicable to such an extent.

  Those were all people who had helped her, she didn't think of repaying them was one thing, but for the sake of her own selfish desires, and because of a single unyielding heart, she actually became so cruel and unreasonable.

  Especially Xia Gao, after listening to Qiu Shi's words, he couldn't help but burst out with anger and suddenly kicked Qiu Shi's pale face.

  "You wicked woman! You are truly deserving of death! I have lived for many years, but I have never seen a woman as despicable and ruthless as you!"

  If looks could kill, Qiu would have been sliced into a thousand pieces by Xia Gaogao long ago.

  He was angry not only at Qiu's despicable and narrow-minded revenge, but also at Qiu's concealment and deception of him.

  He was indeed muddled by the death of his son, but he did not expect himself to be so muddle-headed, and he even failed to see through such a lowly trick, and still entrusted his own son to her care.

  If he had been sober at first, he would have investigated the truth of the matter with a sincere heart.

  He hates!

  Not only did I hate Qiu's ruthless and cruel heart, but also hated my own foolishness and ignorance!

  Not only did he let his beloved woman die unjustly for over twenty years, but also made his own son acknowledge the enemy as his mother. This hatred and resentment, how can he swallow it?!

  Watching Qiu Shi spray out fresh blood because of Xia Gao's kick, Yan Mo Yu turned around and took a deep breath, the fists in his sleeves making successive "cracking" sounds. Suddenly, he turned around and stretched out his hand towards Blood Shadow -

  A sharp little knife was shaken out of Blood Shadow's sleeve and he respectfully placed it in his hand.

  “N... Cough, cough, cough...” Qiu's eyes widened as she stared at Yan Mo walking towards her step by step. The terrifying killing intent made her feel only the fear of approaching death. She wanted to escape, but her whole body was tied up with ropes and she couldn't even muster half a bit of strength.

  "Ah——" A white light flashed before her eyes, instantly making her head hit the ground with a thud, and a steady stream of crimson gushed out from her chest.

  "Stop!" Bai Xin's thoughts were already too late to intervene. Of course, she wasn't thinking of persuading him to spare Qiu Shi, but rather felt that letting her off like this was really too cheap for her.

  Moreover, both father and son ignored one thing - what exactly did Qiu Shi give to Beiyuan Wang that made him appear to have died suddenly? And after death, his corpse was vastly different from an ordinary corpse.

  Of course, perhaps this answer is already dispensable for the father and son, but for her, it feels like there are still doubts that have not been investigated and the case cannot be closed.

  Alas!

  But she also knew that at this moment, the father and son were in a state of anger, and their ability to think had been lost.

  But the most shocked person throughout the night was Liu Xuelan who had been by her side all along.

  She never thought that the old lady of Cheng Wang Fu was an imposter, and it had been so long.

  She was suddenly summoned into the palace and thought it was something else, but unexpectedly Xin Ran actually wanted her to help play the role of a female ghost.

  Never thought that behind this 'female ghost' there was such an absurd and inhuman story...

  This is simply unthinkable!

  "Xue Ying, follow my previous orders and take care of this woman's matter cleanly!" Xia Gao suddenly spoke out again.

  He turned around, his face painful, and said to Yan Mo: "Yan Mo, follow me to the imperial study."

  After finishing speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out of the bedroom.

  He glanced at the woman on the ground, whose clothes were stained with blood, with a hint of crimson in his eyes. He took two deep breaths, turned around and followed closely behind.

  Xue Ying was dealing with Qiu Shi's body, and Bai Xintong took the opportunity to walk up and pat Liu Xuelan, who was still in shock.

  "Xue Lian, thank you, your acting skills are not bad, I must commend you. Tonight you helped me out of a big trouble, the Emperor will definitely reward you heavily, you should seize this opportunity to ask for some benefits from the Emperor." There aren't many people in this world who can make the Emperor owe them a favor, of course, she acknowledged that her words had other meanings, it's just a matter of whether this little girl understands or not.

  It turns out this girl is really lucky!

  She told Mo Yu about this method of using a ghost to scare people, and unexpectedly Mo Yu also agreed with this approach. He immediately took her to see the Emperor.

  The emperor listened and shook his head repeatedly.

  The reason is that there is no suitable candidate.

  Only she and Blood Shadow knew the truth. But if they casually found someone to pretend to be a ghost, it would definitely be easy to be exposed. Since they wanted to do it, they must have done it perfectly, otherwise this failure would make it difficult to scare people next time.

  The emperor did not agree with her and Xue Ying disguising themselves as ghosts, because judging from their figures, she was too slender, and even after changing clothes, it would be easy for people to tell them apart. And Xue Ying's figure was too tall, almost 170cm, plus his whole body had no feminine aura, stiff and rigid, making it easier for people to recognize him.

  She had seen the appearance of her mother-in-law in the jade coffin on Mount Lu, whose body was small but somewhat plump. Suddenly she thought of Xue Lian from her own mansion, and Xue Lian could do lightness skills, which was the most important point, otherwise how to play 'drifting'?

  Apart from this, she couldn't think of a second suitable candidate. As for Xue Lan's character, she was still trustworthy.

  And those "ghostly voices", she personally imitated in front of the emperor for two days. She mainly let the emperor correct her tone, and other things were not a problem for her who had watched horror movies on TV.

  ……

  The next morning

  The palace maid in the Water Moon Palace found Consort Xian hanging from a beam in her bedchamber.

  As soon as this news came out, the entire harem was shocked. It's just a miscarriage, but she actually thought of such an extreme measure.

  Xia Gao took people to the scene of the Water Moon Palace case and sent a designated coroner to autopsy, and in the end, the coroner's conclusion was also that Xian Fei died by hanging herself.

  In the palace, a mourning hall was quickly set up for Queen He and Buddhist rituals were held.

  Yan Mo Yu and Bai Xin Yan quickly rushed to the scene after the palace maid discovered them. To show 'filial piety', Bai Xin Yan even used chili peppers to smoke Yan Mo Yu's two eyes red, while she herself was choked by chili water and tears kept falling.

  The scene was filled with wailing sounds, and the loudest cry came from Bai Xindye.

  At this point, Yan Mo couldn't help but laugh and cry. But in order to play out the final act, he had no choice but to cooperate with his own woman.

  The funeral of Xianfei lasted for seven whole days.

  After the coffin was buried, Bai Xinzhi almost vomited blood.

  As a "daughter-in-law", she had to be filial and also be prepared to mourn at any time, seven days passed, almost exhausting her.

  Changping Palace

  Looking at the woman who was dazed and sleepy in the wormwood water, Yan Mo felt heartache and helplessness. For him, what his own woman had done and sacrificed really made it impossible for him to express in words.

  After helping her clean up, he put her in bed and lay down beside her, watching her fall asleep.

  "Moyu, what if that Shengsheng knew about Qiu Shayuan's death? Why do I feel a bit uneasy in my heart?" Suddenly, Bai Xindian threw out a question and burrowed into his arms.

  She had been so busy being a dutiful daughter-in-law that she only now remembered there was another woman in the household, Qiu Shuiyan's mistress.

  Moreover, the news of Xianfei's miscarriage had spread out of the palace, and she believed that this 'holy monk' must have already heard the news.

  Upon hearing her question, Yan Mo's eyes suddenly dimmed. Indeed, they had neglected this person!

  He suddenly pulled his arm out from under her neck and got up, opening the door and walking out.

  A moment later he returned with a gloomy face.

  Bai Xin raised an eyebrow and lazily leaned against him: "Where did you go?"

  He pulled her into his chest and looked down at her with a gentle gaze: "I'll let Blood Shadow return to the manor, and have her bring Miss Liu back as well."

  Bai Xin nodded and finally opened her mouth to let out a big "ah".

  Seeing her exhausted appearance, Yan Mo patted her back and gently coaxed: "You just rest well, let me handle the other things. You've been working hard these days, as for Sheng Sheng, I'll send someone to keep an eye on him."

  "Mm." Bai Xincheng shifted closer to his neck and soon fell fast asleep.

  Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, serene and beautiful, the ink-like gaze inadvertently softened, rippling like water, the cold and sharp handsome face faded away from the cold hardness of these few days, becoming gentle.

  If it weren't for her, even if he found his mother's burial site, he would probably still be unable to know the real cause of his mother's death.

  Others say she's a waste, a freak, an evil spirit, but only he knows that she is the best jade in the world. She is his pride, and the treasure worth possessing for a lifetime...

  After resting in the palace for a day, the couple returned to the Prince's mansion.

  Just as Bai Xinzhuang had thought, Shengsheng indeed received the news. Moreover, he had already left the palace ten days ago. Calculating it out, it was exactly on the day of Qiu Shi's miscarriage.

  In the study

  Yin Du was summoned for questioning.

  "Can you find out where that Sheng fellow went?" Sitting behind a large desk, Yan Mo asked with a serious expression.

  "Master, ten days ago in the afternoon Sheng was born out of the mansion and never came back. I am to blame for not taking good care of him, so he slipped away. Please punish me!" Kneeling on one knee, Yin Du rarely replied seriously.

  Bai Xinzhen sat beside Mo Yu, furrowing his brow and continued to ask: "Have you sent people to search everywhere? When we investigated him before, we found that he used to work in a casino as a lookout. Have you gone there to investigate secretly?"

  Yin Du nodded: "Princess, people have been sent to stake out the place. As soon as he appears, our people will definitely find him and bring him back. It's just that when subordinates were investigating Sheng Sheng's whereabouts, they found something unusual."

  Yan Mo raised an eyebrow and asked: "Tell me, let's hear it."

  "Previously, when investigating Sheng Sheng, it was only found that 'Sheng Sheng' was his alias, and his real name was originally Sheng Ziyang. This time, after sending someone to investigate with the people from Zhuang's place, it was discovered that this Sheng Ziyang is actually a person from Xiyun country."

  "Oh?" Yan Mo and Bai Xincheng were shocked at the same time, looking at him with serious eyes.

  Yin Du nodded affirmatively and continued, "After investigation, it is confirmed that Sheng Ziyang is indeed a citizen of Xiyun Country. Moreover, the Sheng family has considerable influence in Xiyun Country. It's said that Sheng Ziyang was expelled from his family at a young age due to some offense and was forced out of Xiyun Country, which is why he sneaked into Shuxia Country to make a living."

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo and Bai Xinzhen were both somewhat astonished. They hadn't expected that someone who seemed so unknown would actually have such a background; it turned out that Sheng was hiding his true nature very deeply!

  "Moyu, I want to go to Meiren Zhuang for a trip, can I?" Suddenly said Bai Xintian, turning his head.

  Yan Mo said with a smile: "I'll accompany you."

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xin stared at him: "What are you following me for? I'm going to take care of something, and you're a grown man going to that kind of place, aren't you trying to pick up girls or something?"

  "……?!" He clenched his teeth and bit back a curse. All he wanted was to be with her, but this woman... actually dared to frame him.

  Yin Du originally wanted to say he was going too, but after hearing Bai Xinzhi's words, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

  Forget it, I'd better not follow them to join in the fun, lest my innocence be tarnished...

  She glared at the man, then got up and walked out of the study, preparing to go call Xueying and Xueran to go stroll around the brothel together.

  Two men were left in the study room, at a loss for words and yet unable to speak up.

  ……

  Beautiful Person Village

  The last time he went because of Bai Xindian's injury, Mei Ren Zhuang temporarily closed down, and Bai Xindian didn't have the chance to experience Mei Ren Zhuang's specialty.

  But this time she went, she was really opened her eyes.

  Especially when the nameless old prostitute with a waist like a water snake appeared, the greasy smell made her and Xue Leng cough out several loud sneezes on the spot.

  "Without a daughter, don't you feel uncomfortable with so much fragrance on your body all day?" asked Bai Xintie, frowning as she sat on the soft beauty couch in the luxurious room.

  The girl's mouth twitched and she smiled awkwardly: "Young mistress, we still have to rely on these to make a living, you'll get used to the smell after smelling it more."

  A white apron with a black stripe on the forehead. Is this woman used to pulling her head back? What is she doing running here for no reason?

  The woman was also somewhat surprised by her arrival, seeing that the three people who came were all women, and couldn't help but ask: "Young Madam, where is Young Master? Why didn't he come with you?"

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xin gave her a white-eyed glance: "He had something urgent come up, so he asked me to substitute for him." This wretched woman, if it weren't for the fact that she could tell she was speaking thoughtlessly, she would definitely have been scolded by her.

  She smiled slightly, raising an eyebrow. Judging from Bai Xincheng's expression, she had already guessed eight or nine parts of it. In the past, the young master would not have come to this beautiful woman's villa so easily, and now that he was married to the young madam, he was probably even more afraid to come.

  She looked at this young lady who didn't seem like a gentle mistress.

  "Madam, what is it that you have come to entrust me with this time?" asked Nang after the pleasantries were over.

  Bai Xinglan glanced around the elegant and atmospheric room, suddenly a playful thought arose: "Wu Niang, it's rare for us to come over, why not call out a few girls to accompany us?"

  Upon hearing this, Wu Niang's mouth twitched slightly as she looked at Bai Xincheng with some confusion. "......?!"

  The young master's wife came to the brothel to find the girl, did the young master know?

  Digression

  Emma, finally managed to kill one ~o (n_n) o haha ~
