，
Jingwan raised her head mechanically and looked at the familiar yet strange face in front of her. She then recognized who it was. "Nanny, I heard Ah Yuan calling me." Her tears were still falling drop by drop.
Nanny Gong didn't know what she dreamed of that made her so sad. It made one's heart ache. "Don't be sad, Princess. We will see His Highness soon."
After a long while, Jingwan finally recovered. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and calmed down. However, even if she took the pregnancy medicine, the effect was not so fast. She still felt a little uncomfortable now, so she still leaned on Nanny Gong and didn't move. She stroked her belly from time to time.
As she slowly recalled the dream, she suspected that it might not have been a simple dream. Regarding her husband's past life, even though he did not explain it to her in detail and only mentioned it vaguely, she seemed to be able to make some connections now. Perhaps it was something that he had experienced in his past life. It might be a little absurd to think like this, but Jingwan felt that it was the truth. It was the truth.
She could feel the pain and sadness in such a tragic end in the dream. What about the person who experienced it bit by bit?
This was not the most important thing. Even if she died tragically, she was still dead. The person who was really suffering was the one who was alive.
Her family didn't know what happened, so it might be better. But what about him? Jingwan didn't dare to imagine how she survived that period of time. If it were her, she might have completely collapsed, let alone become the Emperor and create a prosperous dynasty.
At that time, she might not have understood his deep feelings. She didn't know what he had experienced after "her" death. But from her point of view now, it was a very cruel thing to entrust the child to him and ask him to take care of the child. What was left could be a spiritual sustenance, or the real culprit who opened the scars again and again.
Tears unconsciously rolled in her eyes again.
"Your Highness …" Mama Gong called out worriedly. At this time, even though Nanny Gong was dressed in black, she was not the fierce female protector. Instead, she had been by Jingwan's side for a long time. Even though she was strict and proper, her aura was gentle. No matter how one looked at her, she did not look like a decisive person.
"I'm fine." Jingwan rubbed her eyes and held back her tears. "Mama, let's go find His Highness now."
She couldn't wait any longer. She couldn't suppress her longing for him anymore. At this moment, it completely exploded. She wanted to see him. Every cell in her body was clamoring to see him. She wanted to see him. She wanted to see him. She wanted to see him. She wanted to see him.
"Okay, okay, let's go now." At this time, naturally, whatever Jingwan said was the truth. No one had the heart to go against her wishes.
However, Jingwan's condition didn't seem to have recovered completely. Under such circumstances, there was still a huge risk for her to go on the road.
They had to take care of her emotions, but they couldn't ignore her health. For a moment, they were in a dilemma.
When Mama Gong gently stroked her belly, Jingwan realized that what she needed now was rest. She unconsciously clenched her fists. In the end, she suppressed the intense longing again. This might be the only child between her and Ah Yuan. If it was gone, there probably wouldn't be another one in the future.
"Mama, do you have anything on you that can calm me down? Rest for another two hours. "
It was good that Jingwan could control her emotions. "Yes, Your Highness. Rest assured. When it's time, I'll call you."
Jingwan nodded, closed her eyes, and tried to empty her mind as much as possible. It was not an easy thing to do. However, as the saying goes, a mother is strong. When there was no one to rely on, she would be tenacious and have extraordinary perseverance. Li Hongyuan knew the Luo Jingwan best in his previous life. No matter how she changed on the outside, she never changed on the inside.
Under the effect of the calming incense, Jingwan fell into a deep sleep. This time, she didn't have any dreams. It seemed that she slept very well.
During this process, Mama Gong had been paying attention to Jingwan's situation. Fortunately, she had gradually stabilized. Mama Gong put her hand on Jingwan's belly. "Good child, now you know how to care for your mother." As if in response to her words, she felt a slight squirming under her belly.
This time, Nurse Gong smiled very sincerely. Regardless of whether it was the Little Heir or the Little Canton Princess, he would be the most outstanding and filial child.
When two hours were up, they confirmed that Jingwan had almost recovered. Although she was still far from her peak state, it was not something that could be recovered in a short time. She needed a quiet and stable environment to recuperate slowly. Obviously, such conditions did not exist now. It was better to settle the matter as soon as possible and return to the capital.
When Jingwan woke up, she found that during this period of time, they had made a sedan chair. Although it looked simple, it was as delicate as possible. It was cushioned with a thick and soft blanket, so there was no need to worry about its warmth or comfort.
Mama Gong did not let Jingwan get up. She directly carried Jingwan and put her on the sedan chair. After tucking in the corner of the blanket, Mama Gong made a silent gesture. Four people came forward and lifted the sedan chair. Then, the surrounding scenery began to recede. The speed of receding was quite fast. However, Jingwan did not feel the slightest bump.
As for Mama Gong, she was by her side and remained relatively still. She didn't even move up or down. It was obvious that the four 'sedan bearers' were walking at the same pace. She was also walking at the same pace as them. Seeing this, Jingwan's heart relaxed a little. With these people around, it meant that her husband had already made arrangements. In that case, his own safety shouldn't be a problem.
"Your Highness, we are going a little too fast now. You may feel dizzy. Take a rest. Soon, we will see His Highness." Mama Gong said softly.
"Okay." She could feel that things might have really reached the most critical stage. Now, there was no point in thinking too much. Things should be as they were, one step at a time. Thinking about things before reaching that stage seemed to be of no use other than wasting her mind. And right now, the taboo thing for her was probably worrying.
As for Sun Yilin, Jingwan did not want to think about it anymore. It did not matter whether he had a reason or not. Some things were done. After all, Jingwan had already thought it through. Even if her husband wanted to kill her, she would not frown, let alone now. Therefore, no matter what his ending was, she would accept it. No, it had nothing to do with her. When the time came, the only thing she could do was to hide his actions and not let him implicate Sun Yijia. Sun Yijia was her sister-in-law, her best friend, and the mother of her nephew and niece.
Sun Yijia did not know anything about Sun Yilin. She was living a good life now. She should not be implicated by Sun Yilin.
Even though in this feudal dynasty, there were many cases of guilt by association, Jingwan was at most half a native of Qi Yuan. As long as she had the memory of her previous life, she could not be completely assimilated into this society. In her previous life, no matter how heinous the crime was, there was no mention of the family members being implicated.
However, if the matter was too serious, Jingwan would not be able to bear no grudges against her sister-in-law like before. After all, when she saw her, she would inevitably think of Sun Yilin. Not being implicated did not mean that she would not vent her anger. She was not a saint. She was not close to Sun Yijia, but she was not closer to her husband. Sometimes, it was already the limit to be able to control her emotions and not vent it on the innocent.
Therefore, she could only hope that things would not be too bad.
Jingwan inadvertently looked up at the sky. It seemed that the sky was about to brighten. It seemed that tonight was much faster than she thought. — — Ah Yuan …
Li Hongyuan's current situation was not good. He was trapped in the dream. Once again, he clearly experienced the darkest and most painful period. Did he and Jingwan enter the same dream, or was it a coincidence that they had the same dream at the same time?
However, now, no one could get close to him. Although he was still leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, without any movement, and even his breathing was very weak, his attack power was actually very terrifying. It was as if he had lost his mind. He attacked indiscriminately. Whoever got close to him would die. Even if Gong Jiu wanted to help him, there was nothing he could do. Therefore, he could only watch helplessly.
As for the woman, she had already been thrown far away by the people around Li Hongyuan. Although their actions were gentle because of the Substitute Gu, it was also a fact that she was "thrown away". A woman being treated like this was as embarrassing as it could be.
Unfortunately, even though Li Hongyuan was currently being "controlled", anyone by his side could not be underestimated. Furthermore, this was the Qiyuan Region. Even if it was an unknown desolate mountain or forest, it was still Li Hongyuan's territory. Even if the other party had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, they would not dare to easily do anything to this group of killing gods.
Thus, after that woman was' injured 'and embarrassed, she was so angry that her face turned ashen and she gnashed her teeth. In the end, she could only forcefully endure it. Naturally, the determination and hatred in her eyes became even more obvious and intimidating.
Li Hongyuan's secret guards saw that this woman was not so simple. Looking at her, she might even have a grudge against their master. Moreover, her obsession seemed to be a little too deep. This was even more strange. However, they were very clear that they had never seen such a woman around their master. This could only mean that her face did not belong to her. Or, she had a very close relationship with someone who had a "deep relationship" with their master.
Perhaps there would be an answer to these questions soon. Even if there was no answer, it did not matter. No matter if it was love or hatred, it was all settled. It was not a big deal. Who would care about who she was?
The woman returned to her room and smashed everything in the room. Her anger seemed to have distorted her whole face. However, as she smashed, she suddenly stopped. She felt a burning pain on her face. Then, her face suddenly oozed blood and seemed to be eroding little by little.
She covered her face with her hands in horror and hurriedly put on her gauze hat. "Guards, guards, bring a sacrifice from the dungeon. Hurry, hurry —" She was furious and anxious.
A woman's voice came from outside. However, it was not the official language of Qi Yuan. It did not seem to be a common local language in Qi Yuan. It should be a more minority language. It might not even exist in Qi Yuan.
Soon, there was a noise outside. A beautiful girl, who looked to be at most 13 or 14 years old, was dragged in by two women who were also wearing alien costumes. They threw her to the ground rudely. The girl probably knew what was going to happen to her. From her eyes to her expression, she was full of deep fear. However, she could not speak. She could only make whimpering sounds from her throat. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Even if she could not speak, it was obvious that she was begging for mercy.
The woman bent down. Kou Dan's hand, which was as red as blood, pinched the girl's chin. However, that hand, which should have been smooth, delicate, and beautiful, now looked like it had shrunk. Blue veins bulged out. Her skin was dry and dull, and there were slight wrinkles. "It's your honor to be my sacrifice. But you don't have to be so excited." The woman's other hand was gently caressing the girl's face. "You're really beautiful. However, you're also really annoying." It was as if she was whispering to her lover. However, the woman's fingernails scratched the girl's face. From light red marks to bloody marks, the girl's eyes were filled with fear and pain. Perhaps it was because of the deep fear that she could not move, but her body was trembling uncontrollably.
Perhaps it was because of the sweet blood on the girl's face, but the woman's arm suddenly moved. Gradually, on the inner side of her wrist, a large bulge appeared. Her skin was pushed open, and it even seemed a little translucent. When it was pushed to a certain extent, it broke open with a bang. A dark mass of something crawled out from inside. Upon closer inspection, it looked like a spider covered in fine fur. And because the girl's line of sight was the closest, she seemed to vaguely see a human face on the spider. She was originally just an ordinary peasant girl. Because her family was relatively wealthy, she had always been pampered. She was innocent and naive. One day, she was deceived and kidnapped. Soon, she knew the fate that she might face. Because she had seen it more than once in front of her. She had been terrified all day, hoping that she could be rescued, until this moment …
The last desire to live made her struggle with all her might. She suddenly exerted force. The hand that was pinching the girl's chin directly cut through her skin. Blood flowed out, causing the "spider" to become even more restless.
And because of the other party's resistance, the woman became angry. She grabbed the girl's hair and directly stuffed the spider into the girl's mouth. "I gave you face, but you don't want it!"
The girl was still struggling. However, the struggle now was perhaps not just for the sake of survival.
However, the skin of the woman who was separated from the "spider" became worse and worse. If it was only a young woman, then a middle-aged woman, then perhaps she had already become an old woman. It was just that no one could see her face, so no one knew how terrifying she had become.
However, because of that change, the woman became more and more irritable. The young life under her hand became the target of her venting. She pinched and kicked like a crazy woman.
And the girl gradually stopped struggling. She aged visibly until she looked like she was seventy or eighty years old.
And finally, the woman released her hand in disgust. The old girl, who only had one last breath left, fell to the ground. Then, a bright red "spider" crawled out from her collar. Compared to the black spider from before, it was more than a size bigger. Following the woman's extended hand, it crawled back into her body. The wound on her wrist instantly disappeared without a trace. And the originally aged skin also became smooth and elastic again. Her hand was also slender and jade-like fingers.
During the entire process, the woman seemed as if she had eaten a celestial medicine. She let out sighs that could cause one's bones to soften. And the evil aura on her body also disappeared without a trace because she had recovered her youthful beauty. She took off her veil and smiled. She was still that peerless beauty that could cause one's soul to turn upside down.
Without needing her to say anything, the "girl" on the ground was dragged out like filth.
"Get ready, I want to take a bath." The woman said with a bit of laziness.
And the two women serving by the side narrowed their eyes. "Saintess, do you want to take a normal bath, or …"
"Do I even need to say this kind of thing? What use do I have for you?" The laziness instantly turned sharp.
"Saintess, please forgive us. We will go and prepare for the Saintess." The two begged for forgiveness in fear, then hurriedly left, afraid that the Saintess would use them to feed the Beauty Gu if they were a step late.
Beauty Gu, as the name implied, could make an ugly person beautiful, and could also make a person maintain their youthful beauty. However, from the actions of that so-called Saintess earlier, it could be seen how cruel the method to maintain one's beauty was.
For the Beauty Gu to be effective, it needed to be fed with young and beautiful women, and those unmarried beautiful women were the best choice. The more beautiful the sacrifice was, the longer the user could maintain their beauty. However, no matter how beautiful the sacrifice was, it would only be effective for a month at most. After the effect was over, the user would have to eat more sacrifices. However, as the number of sacrifices increased, the effect would gradually weaken. And as the user's age increased, the effect would also weaken. In the end, a life might only last for two or three days, or even two or three lives at a time. It was enough to show how vicious this Beauty Gu was. And those who used the Beauty Gu to maintain their beauty had already surpassed the category of humans, they were worse than beasts.
And this Saintess was actually not very old, only in her twenties. One sacrifice could maintain her beauty for a month, but she still wanted to use the blood bath. Blood bath naturally used blood, and the source of the blood was the same as the sacrifice. However, how much blood could a person have, and how many lives would be sacrificed in one blood bath? Although the effect of the blood bath was to maintain one's beauty, at the beginning of using the Beauty Gu, it could only be used as icing on the cake. Correspondingly, because the Beauty Gu was raised too well, the Beauty Gu would become greedy and want to eat more sacrifices, and eat more frequently.
This so-called Saintess, when did she have the sudden urge to use a blood bath?
Such a person, words like snake, scorpion, and beast were no longer enough to describe her.
A bathtub was quickly carried in. Then, when she saw the amount of blood in the bathtub, the Saintess was furious. "Why is there so little blood?" In fact, it was already quite a lot. If she sat in the bathtub, it would reach her lower abdomen.
"Saintess, please forgive us. There are no more sacrifices in the dungeon. This place is remote, and there is no one around. The sacrifices were all found from other places. Because of the recent arrests, the Qi Yuan authorities have been paying attention to the nearby places. If …"
"Shut up, I don't want to listen to your explanations. No matter what method you use, continue to get me more sacrifices. Now, it's time for you to sacrifice yourselves," the Saintess said coldly.
The two women's eyes were filled with deep fear, and their bodies trembled slightly. However, they did not panic and quickly knelt down. "It's our honor to sacrifice ourselves for the Saintess. However, there are no other sisters around now. When the time comes, who will serve the Saintess?"
The Saintess knew that they were just making excuses, but it was the truth. She needed someone to serve her. "I'll forgive you for now. Go and get some water to add to the bathtub. How am I supposed to bathe with so little blood?"
The effect of the blood would definitely be weakened if it was added to the bathtub. This made the Saintess very unhappy.
However, it was better than nothing. Thus, after she was ready, she submerged herself in. After a while, she slowly raised her head. Her face was covered in blood. It was disgusting no matter how one looked at it, but she enjoyed it.
Perhaps it was the effect of the beauty parasite, but the blood gradually faded. In the end, it became clear water.
The Saintess stood up from the bathtub. She looked rosy and lustrous. Her skin was even better than the best silk. She used the softest cloth to dry it bit by bit. Standing in front of the mirror, she carefully observed her body inch by inch. It was as if she was looking at the most perfect piece of art.
Narcissism might not be a big deal, but narcissism to a certain extent was no different from a pervert.
However, it was already winter, and there was definitely no heat in this thatched hut in the wilderness. Was she not afraid of the cold? The cold might be tolerable, but the changes in the body could not be eliminated just by tolerating it. However, this Saintess was dressed very lightly before. Even those who practiced martial arts all year round had thicker clothes than her, but there was no change in her body. This was very abnormal.
After using the blood to nourish her body, the injuries caused by the emotion sealing parasite seemed to have disappeared.
