Now, he looked just like a child who had lost his most beloved possession—so helpless, so terrified.
All of this, however, was for another woman.
If only she could be loved by him like this, she thought, she would have no regrets in death!
After Yunxin left, Tian Feiyao summoned Azure Dragon.
At this moment, the sky was already lightening. He looked at Azure Dragon with a stern expression and said, "Azure Dragon, I want you to tell me honestly! Is Gu Yuniang really dead?" He always felt that there was some secret between these two people.
Now that he calmed down and thought about it, Luo Qingyun had always had a very good relationship with Yun'er.
And Azure Dragon was even infatuated with her.
How could these two possibly order her to be burned to death?
At that time, he had been in a coma and was completely unaware of everything; he hadn't even seen Yun'er's corpse. He had every reason to suspect that these two had deceived him and hidden Gu Yuniang away, pulling a fast one!
Azure Dragon was startled awake by the abrupt question. He knelt down with a thud and said, "I absolutely dare not deceive you, my Lord! This matter is absolutely true!"
"Then tell me, who brought me to the Imperial Prosperity Hall that night?" Tian Feiyao narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura.
"It was me!" Azure Dragon replied honestly.
"What was Gu Yuniang doing at that time?"
Azure Dragon hesitated for a moment and said, "Like you, she stabbed herself many times and fell unconscious on the ground, blood flowing like a river!"
Tian Feiyao shuddered, his legs almost giving way beneath him, nearly causing him to fall to the ground. Even now, he could not understand why she had suddenly tried to kill him. However, upon hearing Azure Dragon's words, he began to doubt what had truly happened.
What could have driven her to such despair that she wanted to perish alongside him?
He steadied his chaotic thoughts and asked seriously, "And then?"
"Then I brought you back to the Imperial Prosperity Hall! Consort Yun was also brought back! At that time, both of you were severely injured, and Luo Qingyun couldn't take care of both of you at once, so we could only prioritize your safety! Later on, as we grew increasingly powerful, we were left with no choice, and Consort Yun was nearing her end. Reluctantly, we had to resort to this desperate measure and handed over Consort Yun!" This was a prearranged story between Azure Dragon and Luo Qingyun, fearing that Tian Feiyao might one day inquire about it and they would be unable to respond.
Tian Feiyao's eyes flashed with suspicion. "Was she conscious or unconscious when she went into the fire?"
Azure Dragon felt beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
How should he answer? Should he say she was conscious or unconscious? Forget it; he would just tell the truth!
With so many witnesses present during the execution, Lord would easily find out if he lied!
He took a deep breath and said, "Conscious!"
"Weren't you saying she was on the brink of death? How could she still be conscious?" Tian Feiyao pressed down on him with an undeniable authority.
"She must have been tortured before the execution!" Azure Dragon closed his eyes and decided to just make something up!
Seeing Tian Feiyao's disbelieving expression, he continued, "Your Majesty knows that at that time, Consort Yun was rumored to be a Freak. Many people harbored resentment against her; such things are inevitable!"
Tian Feiyao's expression changed; indeed, there were far too many people in the Harem who wished for Yun'er’s demise!
"Alright, you may leave now!" he said coldly.
Qinglong finally let out a sigh of relief. He glanced worriedly at Tian Feiyao's pale face and bowed before stepping back.
In the room, only Tian Feiyao remained.
He sat on the edge of the bed, his face ashen, his eyes filled with deep despair.
Although everyone said she was dead, he refused to believe it—no matter what! He still had too many questions unanswered; how could she possibly be dead?
He closed his eyes in pain, a single tear silently rolling down his cheek, so crystal clear...
The next day, when the first rays of sunlight streamed into the room, Ma Lele woke up, rubbing her throbbing head.
This was the aftermath of a hangover; her head hurt so much!
She struggled to get up, dressed quickly, and tidied herself up before leaving the room.
At that moment, Hong Shao Tower had not yet opened its doors, but everyone was already up and preparing.
“How did you sleep last night?” Suddenly, Hua Nongying appeared behind her and asked mysteriously.
“My head is killing me; I’m never drinking again!” Ma Lele turned around upon realizing it was her and complained.
“Um... where’s my brother-in-law? Is he still sleeping?” Hua Nongying hesitated for a moment before asking. In truth, she really liked Ma Lele. So if she could marry her brother-in-law soon, that would be great.
Even though she was carrying someone else's child, as long as there was love, that was enough. Wasn't it?
Indeed, alcohol is the most powerful matchmaker in the world!
Her fantasy had not yet come true, but it was already doused by Ma Lele with a bucket of cold water. "Of course your brother-in-law is at the Prime Minister's Residence. How would I know if he has gotten up or not?"
Hua Nongying's eyes widened in surprise. "He didn't sleep at your place last night?"
Ma Lele was puzzled. "Why would he sleep at my place?"
"N-nothing..." Hua Nongying shook her head in confusion. Meeting Ma Lele's suspicious gaze, she quickly turned and left. After all that, her brother-in-law still hadn't made a move on her! What a wasted effort!
Ma Lele stood there, pondering everything that had happened the previous night.
She only remembered chatting with Wen Shaojun while admiring the moon, and then nothing else!
Sigh, it seemed she needed to keep some distance from him in the future!
Shaking her head, she decided not to dwell on that issue and hurried off to attend to serious matters!
"Doctor, how is my baby?" Ma Lele arrived alone at a clinic to check on the child in her womb.
After the doctor finished taking her pulse, his expression changed slightly, and she anxiously asked, "Is something wrong?"
Having suffered such severe injuries, she was worried about their impact on the baby.
Just thinking about it made her anxious.
The doctor shook his head. "The fetus is very unstable. I advise you to prepare yourself mentally; this child may not survive."
Hearing this, Ma Lele's face turned pale instantly.
Moments later, she walked heavily towards the Red Silk Pavilion with a bag of medicine in hand.
The doctor's words echoed repeatedly in her mind.
She took a deep breath, placed her hand on her lower abdomen, and murmured, "No matter what, Mommy will do her best to protect you. Mommy won't give up, so you mustn't give up either, okay?" She had originally thought that leaving Dayue would allow her to start a new life, but the path ahead was still fraught with thorns. She didn't know if she could continue down this road.
But she would never give up!
Upon returning to the Red Silk Pavilion, she noticed something was off today.
The entrance was filled with many unfamiliar faces; each one was tall and imposing, giving off an intimidating aura that suggested they would harm anyone who got too close!
Everyone was on high alert, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Ma Lele casually grabbed a girl named Ziyan and nervously asked, "What's going on?"
Ziyan glanced around and whispered, "A big shot has arrived. You need to hurry back to your room and don't wander around, understood?"
A big shot?
Ma Lele raised an eyebrow; the highest authority could only be the emperor. Could it be the emperor of Great Wisdom?
