Double Happiness was right about one thing, but not entirely right. Although it was not harmful to the human body, some of the women who were afflicted with the forbidden pill could not bear the pain once, and would just hit their heads and die. Young Miss had endured it for so many years because of the hatred in her heart, and she knew she could not die.
But no woman could endure such pain. Young Miss's body was getting weaker and weaker. If the pain continued, even if she could bear it, she would die sooner or later.
Li Yingying's cries seemed to be much softer, leaving only a faint moan.
"I just gave Miss Li a few needles, but it can only temporarily relieve the pain. Moreover, it was only effective this time. I'm afraid I won't be able to help her next time."
Double Happiness saw Shen Yueji's doubts and explained.
If the forbidden pill was not removed, Li Yingying might not be able to live for long under such painful torture.
But if the forbidden pill was removed …
Shen Yueji knew that the women in the imperial harem fought fiercely, and used endless methods. The women in this mansion were not inferior at all.
She got up and walked towards Li Yingying on the bed.
She lay weakly on the bed, sweating profusely. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pale, bloodless face revealed the helplessness and despair she exuded.
She had a strong desire to live, and this desire had kept her going until now.
Mo Wushang saw her get up and followed her. Until he saw the face of the woman on the bed, his black eyes suddenly shrank. Not long after, he moved his gaze from Li Yingying's face to Shen Yueji.
Previously, he did not understand why Shen Yueji would go through so much trouble to let Shen Yuechi go to Zhongzhou to bring her into the palace. He had never been interested in other women, so he did not ask much until Ji Chu came back and told him about it. He said that Li Yingying was very much like a person, and her words were careful, as if she was afraid to say it in detail.
He listened without any expression on his face, as if she was a stranger.
Even though she looked very similar to Gu Yueqin, this face, as well as the feeling she gave him, were all unfamiliar. With just a glance, Mo Wushang knew that she wasn't Gu Yueqin.
He vaguely guessed the reason why Shen Yueji had gone through so much trouble to bring her into the palace, and his handsome brows furrowed even deeper.
He did not understand why she would do this …
She had always liked that man … Why did she still …
Mo Wushang had never thought that his mind would be in such a mess because of a woman. Wherever she went, he would follow. He would leave everything behind just to be by her side. To him, this was a great satisfaction.
Shen Yueji's heart was on Li Ying Ying, so she didn't have the time to care about his thoughts.
She sat on the edge of the bed and stared at Li Yingying's pale face for a while. "How do you feel now?"
"Thank you …"
Li Yingying smiled weakly at her.
"Did you hear what I said just now?"
"… Yes."
Li Yingying lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time before she spoke.
It was a hoarse word filled with infinite loneliness, expressing the grievances and humiliation the young girl had suffered all these years.
Seeing her like this, Shen Yueji waved her hand and asked them to leave first.
Mo Wushang glanced at her. Perhaps because he had something on his mind, he didn't have much of a reaction. He just walked to the opposite tea table and sat down. He didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
