Chapter 4

After the emperor finished speaking, his face turned sinister and he held up his bleeding sword blade as he walked towards his concubine.

Shu Jie finally panicked, her brain blank, and suddenly knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This has nothing to do with me!"

The emperor placed the sword blade around her neck with a resentful expression and said, "You promised me that the fetus I gave birth to was intact, but now it is a complete monster! How dare you say it has nothing to do with you?"

Shujie was trembling all over, but suddenly remembered and pointed at me.

"Emperor! It must be Yun Zhi! That day she sent Ah Ruo to visit the palace of Empress Miao. She must have used a spell to harm the imperial heir!"

The emperor's pupils closed.

Upon seeing this, Sister Shu knew that there was a way to save her and quickly said, "Your Majesty! I know the method of breaking spells!"

She looked at me, and a bad thought flashed through my heart. Immediately, my concubine coldly said, "As long as you bring that lowly maid Ah Ruo and cut off her limbs! Put her on the four corners of the altar, the prince will definitely be able to recover to his original state!"

"Yunyin!"

I tore my heart and lungs apart, spitting black blood from my mouth.

The emperor didn't even glance at me, "Bring that lowly servant!"

When Ah Ruo came, the black rain continued incessantly.

She was taken to the altar in great fear, constantly bowing and begging for mercy: "The emperor forgive me! The emperor forgive me! I went to the palace of Empress Miao and didn't do anything!"

"Didn't do anything? If you say this, dare you believe it yourself!" Sister Shu looked angry. "If you hadn't done anything, how could the prince have had an accident!"

The emperor raised his sword and I risked everything to block in front of Aruo.

"Your Majesty!" My blood red eyes forced me to endure the excruciating pain, "Empress Miao was already pregnant with a stillborn child. Now, in exchange for this result, it has nothing to do with Ah Ruo -"

"Yun Zhi! Don't talk nonsense! You can give birth! How could it be a stillborn child!"

Sister Shu hurriedly interrupted me and got up from the ground. "Your Majesty, don't listen to this slut's one-sided words! Have you forgotten how Lady Miao's pregnancy died?"

When it comes to the first child, the emperor was furious and kicked me.

"Damn it! It's not enough to harm Miaoer's first child, but it's even enough to harm the second one!"

My eyes darkened and I felt like I was about to die.

Ah Ruo was crying and wanted to pounce, but was caught in the middle by the emperor's sword.

"Yun Zhi, since you love to pretend so much, why don't you die for this lowly maid?"

"Okay." I didn't hesitate, closed my eyes, "I beg the emperor to fulfill it."

The emperor's pupils trembled violently, and the next second he lifted his sword.

I admitted to my death, but there was no pain. I only heard a muffled groan and blood splattered on my face.

I opened my eyes, and with just one glance, I was torn apart.

"Ah Ruo!"

Ah Ruo pounced at the blade and penetrated his entire body.

I was devastated, but Ah Ruo felt relieved and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"Da Siming... You are the Da Siming of the dynasty in your heart, how should you end up in such a land... Ah Ruo Jian's life... It's not a pity to die. You should live well, at least once for yourself."

After that, she completely lost her breath and collapsed on the altar.

Sister Shu sneered, "Yun Zhi, you really have a good dog!"

I curled up my body, as if I was about to die.

The next second, my body suddenly had a reaction, vomiting blood and water.

In the blood, a living creature beats like a heart.

Sister Shu was overjoyed and said, "This living creature can break spells! Congratulations to the emperor! Congratulations to the emperor!"
