His Majesty has not yet punished your crime of adultery, and yet you are still making excuses!" "Enough!" Giang Thanh Ngon's shout rang out, bringing with it an undetectable tremble. "Go find two experienced old nannies... to take care of her." After giving instructions to the royal doctor, he took a step forward, paused again. But in the end, without turning around, he walked away quickly. I laughed - Such a coward, I was once desolate. I thought... I thought he could protect me, he could protect my child. It was... so wrong! He took advantage of me, then pushed me out. He took advantage of me, insulted me, humiliated me. He listened to others, became suspicious. Now - He killed you with his own hands - The only thing in this world I am attached to... 12. "Girl, please take medicine." The sixth time, I pushed the bowl of tonic medicine out of my hand. said that my body was exhausted and needed careful treatment. But I knew that was just telling Giang Thanh Ngon very clearly... I didn't have much longer to live. My eyes looked blankly at the yard. There was nothing worth seeing today. Giang Thanh Ngon came from the rain, followed by Minh Duc. He took me to a palace near his palace Go. That way you can get well quickly.” He sat down next to me, embracing me intimately, as if nothing had ever happened. I tilted my head to avoid his kiss, my stomach churning. He also didn't get angry. If it was before, he would have argued with me. “Your Majesty, are you free to come by today? The Queen's investiture ceremony is coming soon?" The hand holding my hand suddenly stopped. A moment later, he turned around and said softly: "Balancing the power of the court is not easy. Khanh Yen... please wait for me a little longer, okay?" Wait? I'm no longer interested, nor do I want to wait! He tightened his grip on me again. "The royal physician said that your body has improved. When you recover, I will take you out of the palace to see the sights, okay? We... will still have a child." Still? It turns out... he remembered. No wonder he's been so gentle lately. I glanced at Minh Duc standing in the hallway—He was still safe and sound. You see, Giang Thanh Ngon is more tolerant towards the people under his hands... than he is towards me. "Giang Thanh Ngon... Do you regret it?" I felt his arm hugging me suddenly stiffen. I smiled coldly in my heart. Whether he regrets it or not, is no longer important. "I want to go to Hanh Dai pagoda to do a ritual to save the undead." After a long while, he said: "Okay." I stood up from his arms and coldly walked into the temple. 13. On the day he left the palace to go to Hanh Dai Pagoda, Giang Thanh Ngon sent countless guards. Prestige is almost no less than the Queen's status. However, he didn't know...I already had no intention of running away anymore. That's just how he is—I've never believed in me before. I glanced at Minh Duc, the person standing closest to the carriage. I once asked Giang Thanh Ngon to let him follow me, saying it was to protect me. In fact, it's convenient for him to monitor me. But can he really monitor me? Because in my hands, there are his weaknesses. Giang Thanh Ngon hasn't punished me yet, because I haven't opened my mouth yet. Minh Duc understands clearly—His life is now in my hands. When entering the main hall of Hanh Dai Pagoda, the incense of incense mixed with the warmth from the candlelight spread across the face. The sound of chanting rang out, I half-closed my eyes. The blood and bones are at peace, but the hatred still fills the heart. 14. In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, I am content to stay in the palace. Nham Dao comes almost every day to make a few sarcastic comments. I don't care. Today, she came again. As usual, sit down on the main seat, looking down at me from above. My cough came back today, I withdrew

Handkerchief covering mouth, coughing endlessly. She let out a scornful laugh, but when her eyes fell on the golden brooch and knife set on my head—her expression clearly darkened. She asked me where I got it from. I answered honestly. It's just that last time Giang Thanh Ngon came, brought a few pieces of jewelry, and asked me which one I wanted. I answer as I please. He immediately chose this tree for me. It seems that what Nham Dao sought but could not get, fell into my hands. Her face was gloomy, but her mouth still smiled faintly and disdainfully: "It's just a set of knives, the Queen's phoenix has already been brought to my hospital. Why do I still covet this small thing?"
