The night gradually darkened and the winter nights were always exceptionally cold. If one were to walk outside, the north wind seemed to be able to blow into the seams of one's bones, making one feel pain even if one moved.
In the gloomy prison, the wind blew in through the narrow window, making the people in the prison to shrink into a ball. She wrapped the tattered quilt tightly around her body and only her head was exposed. She got up with great effort and tried to close the window that the wind blew in.
However she could not reach it even when she tiptoed. After a moment, she gave up this idea, fearing that if she used too much strength, it would only make herself weaker.
When the patrolling jailer saw this scene, he only smiled at this scene and did not step forward to help. After staying in this kind of gloomy place for a long time, one would more or less be somewhat distorted. Most likely it was a kind of pleasure to watch the prisoners suffer, at least for now.
Shen Qing glanced at the jailer and quickly lowered her head to hide the trace of hatred in her eyes. After being here for a few days, she had suffered all the hardships that she should have suffered. She did not know if it was because Shen Yuan and Shen Gui did not manage to bribe them, but these jailers did not treat her any different from others and also made fun of her suffering. If there was anything that was deliberately taken care of, it would be that she was not like the other female prisoners who had her innocence destroyed by these jailers. However, perhaps this was not the credit of the Shen family, after all she was still carrying Prince Yu's flesh and blood in her stomach. No matter if her background was glorious or not, she was after all stained with a little Royal blood.
Shen Qing carefully touched her lower abdomen. Now this was the only thing that she could rely on. She did not know why but the words that Shen Miao said to her in the afternoon made her feel an extreme fear. This was something that she had never had before. Even when she was first brought to the prison, she did not have such thoughts because she knew that there would always be someone who would come to save her and her loved ones would not let her suffer in vain.
But Shen Miao had analyzed it word by word for her, shattering her hopes one by one, allowing Shen Qing to see clearly how weak she was. It also made Shen Qing doubt if she could escape unscathed this time.
The jailer glanced at her and was about to walk out again when Chen Qing suddenly called out, "Big brother."
The other party stopped and walked over to her. Probably because he couldn't stand the strange smell on Shen Qing's body, he waved his hand in disgust and asked, "What's the matter?"
"In the past few days, has my family come to see me? Or did you pass a message to me? " She held back her anger. A little jailer actually dared to look at her with such a look of disdain. If it was in the past, she was afraid that he wouldn't even have enough time to curry favor with her. These despicable people who fawn on those in power!
The jailer laughed, "What are you thinking, Miss Shen? The case hasn't been solved yet, who would dare to see you? Besides, apart from that younger sister of yours, no one else in your family has asked about you, "the jailer said in a mocking tone. After all, such a thing happened to Shen Qing. Even if she was able to clear her name in the future, she would still have to bear the burden of many gossips. Moreover, the Shen family would also fall into such a predicament and it would be very difficult for them to pass their days. Presumably the Shen family had decided to give up this daughter. Thinking of this, the jailer's attitude towards Shen Qing became even more impolite.
Shen Qing's heart did not know if she was disappointed or relaxed. After hesitating for a moment, she then looked at the jailer and said, "Big Brother, if my Older Brother comes to see me … You can say that I have heavy thoughts and do not wish to see others. How about not letting him see me?" As she spoke, she took off a bracelet from her wrist and handed it over through the iron bars.
When she was in prison, most of the jewellery on her body had been taken away. This bracelet was worn by Ren Wan Yun on the day of her marriage and was also very precious. Shen Qing kept a selfish motive and did not take this thing out. Thinking about it, she was forced to give the bracelet out today.
