Full of mountains and rivers, my thoughts wander far.

Golden Orchid Palace, the sunlight shines like glass on the branches of oleander flowers by the window, and the fragrance of lilies wafts gently, creating a lazy and comforting tenderness.
consort Yueshu sits on the side of the chair, absentmindedly stroking the tiger-striped cat in her arms. There is an unmistakable anxiety and weariness in her expression. She bites her lip, as if making a determined decision, and looks up at Jiang Ming with a burning gaze: "Please help your sister, sister!"
Jiang Ming His hand paused as he was about to drink tea.
consort Yueshu After a long pause, she finally got to the point. Her elder brother is the Minister of Revenue, who forcibly seized and sold land at high prices in the east of the city, resulting in loss of life. Now that the truth has come to light, the emperor is furious. How could a lowly concubine like her possibly reverse the situation? Besides, it's a well-known fact that the harem is not allowed to meddle in politics. Who doesn't know that?
consort Yueshu I'm afraid it's really time to resort to desperate measures.
Jiang Ming She touched her lower abdomen and knew that staying silent was not a solution. She raised her head and smiled gently, "Sister is joking. Since the position of the empress has been vacant, everyone in the harem has regarded you as the highest authority. How could I, as a younger sister, have that ability?"
consort Yueshu was stunned for a moment, her armor causing pain to the cat in her arms, which made the cat suddenly open its eyes and call out uneasily.
She hurriedly bent down to soothe it, and with a bitter smile said, "I won't hide it from you, the Emperor... the Emperor hasn't visited my palace for half a month. Yesterday, I knelt in front of the study for three hours, but the Emperor still refused to see me. Sister, all my hopes are now pinned on you. If you can save my brother, I'm willing to explain to the Emperor and hand over the Phoenix Seal to you."
As soon as the words fell, consort Yueshu stood up and knelt straight down.
Jiang Ming was startled and quickly got up to help her. The palace maid Qingping, who was behind her, quickly came over to support Jiang Ming and walked to consort Yueshu's side.
"Sister, what are you doing? Get up quickly, I can help, I..."
Before finishing the sentence, the cat in consort Yueshu's arms suddenly jumped up, and before anyone could react, it bumped into Jiang Ming's abdomen and then fled.
The two were very close, with no way to avoid each other. Jiang Ming immediately took a few steps back and sat on the ground, feeling a sharp pain in her abdomen. She curled up, holding her stomach, and looked up at consort Yueshu with a look of sorrow, saying, "Sister, why do you have to hurt my child like this?"
consort Yueshu's face was full of fear as she stepped back, repeating in a murmur, "No, it's not me, it's not me!"
Golden Orchid Palace The internal strife is in chaos, Jiang Ming can no longer hear what she is saying. Before her eyes is a dark mist, enveloping her deeply. Amidst the clamor, there is the strong and composed voice of Qingping shouting, "What are you standing there for! Go quickly and fetch the Emperor and the imperial physician!"
When she opened her eyes again, it seemed that the sky had darkened. The curtains were drawn to block out some of the light, and the scent of lilies had long been replaced by the sweet fragrance of dreams. The imperial physician's voice trembled as he spoke, "Report to the Emperor, Consort Jiang has always been frail, and now, due to the shock and the fall, she may no longer be able to bear a royal heir in the future."
Jiang Ming's mind floated as if in a dream, and it was only after hearing this sentence that she suddenly woke up.
It turns out that this time, she lost not only a child, but also the right to be a mother.
Clang! Like the sound of silverware hitting the floor, without needing to look, one could tell that there was a commotion outside. They were probably all kneeling and begging for the Emperor's forgiveness. Then came the angry voice of Gao Heze: "Get out of here!"
At that moment, she coughed softly, and as expected, Gao Heze quickly lifted the bed curtain and came in, holding her hand with a gentle and affectionate gaze. " Mingming, you're awake."
Jiang Ming felt a pang in her heart and said, "Your Majesty, it's all my fault. I couldn't protect our child. My sister's cat went mad, and our child..." She couldn't continue, turned her head, and tears streamed down her face.
Qiao Yu held her hand tightly, the candlelight flickering on his face. After a long pause, he spoke, "I don't believe in such a coincidence."
He seemed to sigh, "Summon the courtiers, decree that consort Yueshu be stripped of her title and sent to the cold palace, and the Yue clan be exiled to Lingnan according to the law."
Actually, Jiang Ming knows that Gao Heze is mindful of his feelings, so he has never said how to deal with the The Yue Family. But consort Yueshu should not have done what she did at this time, causing harm to her child, forcing Gao Heze to no longer consider even a shred of his feelings.
After all, it is also his child. He once, like an ordinary person, pressed his face against her belly to listen to the sound of that little life.
" Mingming, you don't need to take the words of those mediocre doctors to heart. I, as the ruler of the world, can't even find a divine doctor to heal you?" His voice was as confident as ever, as he raised his hand to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
Jiang Ming obediently nodded, her eyes showing signs of weariness, so Gao Heze helped her tuck in the bedcovers and instructed her to rest well.
The bright yellow figure reflected on the bed curtain, swaying as it walked away. The voice calling "the emperor is leaving" only managed to utter one sound before being silenced by a gesture from the shadow, pressing down on the throat of the young eunuch.
