Chapter 3

On the day Lady Miao gave birth, I was taken to the palace and finally saw Lady Miao herself.

Her abdomen was high and bulging, with veins all over her body. Every time she breathed, her skin and flesh swelled and twisted.

Seeing me look at her, she fearfully crawled into the arms of the emperor.

"Your Majesty..."

"Miaoer, don't be afraid." The emperor protected her and gave me a warning look.

"With me around, this slut can't hurt you."

At this moment, Sister Shu rushed over.

"Your Majesty, the altar has been completed! All you need is for Lady Miao and Yun Zhi to drink the exchange talisman water."

"Send it up!"

Miao Guifei took down a cup.

There was still one cup left, and before I could see it clearly, I was grabbed by my chin and poured it in.

In an instant, all my limbs and bones were tingling, and my eyes turned black. Suddenly, I spat out a puddle of blood.

This blood is thick, foul smelling, and appears black.

My body is in excruciating pain, as if I am about to die.

This stillborn child, the resentment is so heavy!

"Your Majesty!"

Miao Guifei was panicked and panicked.

Sister Shu was also stunned and immediately pretended to be calm. "You can rest assured, Lady Miao. This person who changed her life needs to spit out her filthy heart! Yun Zhi's heart is the only way! You must drink it to ensure that you can give birth to a prince safely!"

The emperor saw me convulsing on the ground, and a strange color flashed in my eyes.

Quickly, he chose to believe in the national teacher and said, "Miaoer, please drink it obediently and there won't be anything wrong."

"Your Majesty!"

I was in excruciating pain and looked at him with crimson eyes. "Do you really want to feed the talisman water? Even if you send a heavenly punishment and the dynasty is destroyed, you won't regret it?"

Before the emperor could say more, senior sister stepped forward and slapped me hard in the face.

"Yun Zhi! How dare you curse the dynasty! It's a crime worthy of death!"

As if afraid that the emperor would believe it, the senior sister quickly said, "Your Majesty! This despicable person has a malicious heart and cannot be trusted! Miao Guifei is about to give birth. If she doesn't drink the talisman changing water, she will be dead and have two lives!"

When it came to one corpse and two lives, the emperor's face changed.

He ordered the guards, "Yun Zhi cursed the dynasty, clapping his lips twenty times! Drag the altar to dispel the wrath of heaven!"

My father-in-law came over and slapped me hard in the face.

My ears immediately buzzed incessantly, slapping me several times and my mouth was bleeding profusely.

"Enough! Throw her out!"

I was thrown to the altar.

Sister Shu stepped on my hand, towering over me.

"Sister, are you happy about the outcome now?"

I didn't react, Sister Shu smiled.

"From childhood to adulthood, as you are the legitimate daughter, the blessing order only recognizes you as the main one. You have better food, clothing, and daily necessities than me. When you grow up, you want to become the Grand Marshal, but I have to send someone to marry. Is it fair?"

"Yun Zhi, it's clear that I should be the respected Grand Commandant!"

"Now that you have broken your body and lost all your abilities, and the blessing order no longer recognizes you, you are a disabled person whose fate is about to end!"

I cough up black blood, ten thousand arrows pierce through my heart, but that's all.

"So, senior sister... do you know the anomaly in this fetus?"

"What exactly are you trying to say?" said Shujie with a hint of sharpness in her eyes

I tugged my lips and gestured for her to come closer.

My elder sister was skeptical, so I whispered, "You use boys and girls as a medicinal lure and use resentment to force out this stillborn child. Within half a month, you will inevitably suffer backlash."

"Yun Zhi!"

Sister Shu has crimson eyes, she didn't expect me to guess.

The next second, pull out the sword and be full of desire to kill me and silence.

"Boom!"

Suddenly it rained heavily.

Immediately, the delivery room heard the palace attendants exclaiming, "We have given birth! The prince has given birth!"

But I never heard crying.

Quickly, the delivery room remained silent as if it were a cold cicada. The emperor kicked open the door, snatched the sword from the hand of the concubine, and entered the room.

I only heard the palace people pleading for mercy, and in the end, all of them died in that room.

I only found out that the child born to Concubine Miao is a strange child with no facial features.
