Chapter 78

  "Speak!" Sima Rui's voice rose, revealing a few points of severity, and even Murong Feng and Murong Xuan were startled. Although the voice was not particularly loud, it carried an irresistible majesty.

  "It has nothing to do with Snow Concubine!" Chun Xi exclaimed in fright, "At that time, I was standing right next to them. Liu Concubine and Snow Concubine were talking, and even waved at Snow Concubine. Snow Concubine suddenly raised her hand to wipe her eyes, but it was exactly then that Liu Concubine suddenly fell over. The people around Liu Concubine immediately shouted out. I swear to heaven, Snow Concubine really didn't push Liu Concubine down. She truly just wanted to wipe her eyes, as if something had gotten into Snow Concubine's eyes. But... but Liu Concubine still fell over."

  "Didn't you tell His Majesty?" Murong Feng asked.

  "The emperor didn't listen to me at all, and Liu Fei was sent into the house. Soon after, a doctor came out and said that Liu Fei had miscarried and lost a lot of blood. They even brought out bloody bed sheets. The emperor got angry right away and slapped Xue Fei down from the steps with one slap. Xue Fei didn't steady herself in time and fell to the ground from the third or fourth step. The emperor then went into the house to see Liu Fei, and I could only help Xue Fei back up. When we got back, we found that her skirt had been stained red with blood. We quickly called for a doctor, who said that Xue Fei had also miscarried and was bleeding heavily. I immediately went to find the emperor, but I couldn't even get into Liu Fei's residence, let alone see the emperor." Chun Xi finished speaking in one breath, then burst out crying and didn't say anything else.

  Murong Xue's face was expressionless on the bed, with tears flowing non-stop.

  Murong Xuan let out a soft sigh and said coldly, "Xiaoxue is naturally at a disadvantage. As for Liu Fei, what kind of person is she? Since she was favored by the Emperor, apart from the Empress and Wu Fei, which other woman can appear in front of the Emperor? Now there are only Xiaoxue and that Li Fei, those two young concubines. Li Fei has a strong personality, naturally she won't easily admit defeat. Xiaoxue is weak-willed, naturally she's no match for Liu Fei."

  "Right! Sima Rui, hurry up and invite Consort Li over to see if she has any methods that can help Murong Xue get through this difficult time." Murong Feng said, looking at Sima Rui. "She comes from Wumeng, a country rich in medicinal herbs, perhaps there are excellent medicines that the Great Xing Dynasty does not have."

  Simarui nodded and turned around to leave.

  Lihui was indeed quick, and with a few swift movements, she managed to temporarily stop the bleeding. However, she saw that Murong Xue had a look of desperation on her face, as if seeking death. Lihui couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, saying: "Simarui, it's not that I'm unwilling to help, the bleeding has been stopped, but Murong Xue is consumed by despair and has given up all hope. Even if I had another solution, I could only save her for the time being, but not forever."

  Murong Feng looked at Murong Xue lying on the bed, not speaking for a long time. Sima Rui even thought she wouldn't speak again, and Murong Juan also thought she had given up, but suddenly,

  "Murong Xue, you really are my younger sister Murong Feng's little sister, the number one beauty of the Great Xing Dynasty. Your parents doted on you so much, and yet you've lost your will to live over such a small matter! Now that you're pregnant, you can't just let it disappear silently. If Liu Fei is harming you, why can't you stand up for yourself? Why should she be allowed to hurt you like this? Is it because the Emperor has seduced you and toyed with your first love? Why should he get to say he loves you one day and not the next just because he's a man, an emperor, and a ruler above all others? If you still consider me your sister, then make an effort to live on for my sake. You're young, beautiful, intelligent, and talented - Liu Fei is no match for you! If she's harming you, you should use the same tactics against her. Don't be afraid, don't be sad, it's just a setback. The Emperor may have hit you today, but you can make him regret it later as long as you've planted yourself in his heart. As long as you live well and have us sisters who love you, you'll be able to look down on her from above one day! But all of this depends on you living..."

  "Right!" Lihui blurted out, "Isn't it just Liu Fei? I, Yalai, can help you. With her little tricks, even the ordinary people of Wumeng country wouldn't bother to use them. Right, what trick did she use?"

  Murong Feng, Sima Rui, and Murong Xuan all looked at her at once, crying with laughter.

  Murong Xuewa burst into tears, "Third sister, how can he treat me like this?! I considered him to be Xiaoxue's heaven!"

  Murong Feng didn't say a word, staring at Murong Xue. No matter how others guessed, they wouldn't have thought that this silly girl had actually fallen in love with the Emperor.

  "Listen, Murong Xue, in this imperial palace, no one believes in tears. If you want to seek justice for yourself, you must first survive. With us here, you will never lose to that Liu Fei!" Sima Rui said calmly, "You are Feng'er's sister, just this one point, I won't be stingy about helping you."

  "There's also me." Murong Xuan said calmly, "There are many rights and wrongs in this palace that you, a little maid, can't understand. Although I've been married into the palace for only a few years, what I know, see, understand, and experience can definitely help you! You can't continue like this, how can you face your mother who lost her life for you? If you give up easily, it's better if I send you away myself. Since you love the Emperor, he must also love you!"

  "Good!" Li Fei said beside him, "What's it to me? Anyway, I'm on your side, and anyway, I don't dare to have any interest in that emperor. If it weren't for the peace of Wumeng country, I wouldn't bother to marry this old man."

  Murong Feng secretly admired this foreign girl, so bright and lovely, if she were in the era of Bai Min, what a 'thousand people's infatuation' it would be! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile lightly, but then let out a light sigh, only to think that she was mismatched with someone.

  Murong Xue's sobbing finally stopped hiding in her heart, and the sound of her crying made everyone present feel a pang of sorrow. After all, she was just a 15-year-old girl, how could she bear such hardships? On that day when she was 15, she had already exhausted all her dignity, and now being scolded by the Emperor like this, and losing her first child, it's no wonder she had thoughts of seeking death.

  "Tonight, Liu Fei will surely pretend to be afraid of the cold, and with the people around her, as well as Sima Qiang and Hong Yu's cooperation, I'm afraid Father Emperor will send Murong Xue to the Cold Palace and let Liu Fei move in here." Sima Rui thought for a moment, looking at Murong Feng. "He must not be willing to listen to explanations now, and by the time he can be explained to, it's likely that he has already been forgotten by Father Emperor."

  Murong Feng quietly thought for a moment, looking at Sima Rui, and suddenly said: "I'll go to my grandmother's place now."

  Simarui nodded slightly, "Since Liu Fei had a miscarriage, we don't know what's true or false. Why not make a big deal out of Murong Xue also having a miscarriage? Regardless of who is more important, just this one dragon fetus is enough for Liu Fei to handle. She had a miscarriage, and so did Murong Xue. For the time being, Father Emperor won't be able to take action, let's get past this hurdle first."

  Murong Feng and Sima Rui went to Xiangfu Palace, while Murong Xuan and Li Fei stayed behind to take care of Murong Xue.
