Transmigrated into a goddess from another world, and criticized the King of Yan for loving her like

It was Xiao He, the maid who used to serve her. Xiao He followed her after she married into the Lu family. Before Lu Feng kidnapped her that day, he knocked Xiao He unconscious. They never saw each other again after that.

Su Qingci looked at Xiao He for a while, and was relieved to see that she was fine, just a little thinner due to the dusty journey. Then he hurriedly asked her about Lu Huan.

Xiao He has always been the most loyal to her and would never listen to Yan Xuanye's words to deceive her.

Xiao He hesitated for a long time, but still spoke slowly under her expectant eyes, her voice carrying a bit of sadness: "Madam, the general is indeed dead."

Su Qingci didn't believe it: "Didn't they say the body wasn't found? How can you be sure he's dead?"

Xiao He also burst into tears: "Madam, the general's body has been found."

Su Qingci stood there blankly, tears welling up uncontrollably in her eyes, muttering to herself, "How could this be?"

"When the army retreated, everyone was only concerned about their own safety, and no one dared to go and pick up the general's body in danger."

Xiao He wiped away her tears as she spoke, "After some time, the men under King Ning threw the general's body at the gate of Yizhou City. The deputy general and others carried the general's body back, and only then were they able to bury it."

Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe. She asked, "Are there many injuries on his body?"

Su Qingci wanted to know more about his life and wanted to know whether he was in pain before he passed away.

Xiao He's tears shrank even more, like beads from a broken string, unable to stop falling. "That bunch of beasts, even after the general died, they still refused to let go of the general's body, and even whipped the corpse!"

"When the general's body was sent back, it was completely unrecognizable. It was completely unrecognizable from his former appearance and high spirits."

Su Qingci seemed to have grasped a slim hope. He held Xiao He's hand, his eyes gleaming, "Could it be that it wasn't him? Maybe... the person who died wasn't Lu Huan, but someone else?"

"The corpse was wearing the clothes and armor of a commander, and the belt around his waist was altered by you, Madam, yourself, and there was an amulet sewn inside it."

The light in Su Qingci's eyes disappeared.

Lu Huan is really dead.

This news was like a bolt from the blue. Su Qingci was struck by lightning. Her vision went dark in an instant and she was about to fall to the ground unsteadily. Fortunately, Xiao He was quick to help her up.

"Ma'am, are you okay?"

"It's okay." She forced herself to smile at her, trying to pretend that nothing had happened, trying to pretend that she didn't care and wasn't heartbroken.

"Xiao He, how did you escape?"

Xiao He: "They just knocked me out that day, they didn't mean to kill me. After Madam disappeared, Sister Zitan brought people to find me. The secret guards that the general left behind to protect Madam were either dead or injured."

"The enemy is outnumbered and powerful, and we only have six or seven of the most skilled secret guards left alive."

"Because the people they brought were all women from the Central Plains, Sister Zitan initially thought that the Crown Prince had sent someone to kidnap the Madam, and didn't think of anything else."

"I didn't expect that the people who took you away were actually these northern barbarians."

Xiao He looked at Su Qingci's thinning chin and increasingly thin jawline, feeling very distressed, "Madam has suffered a lot, and has lost a lot of weight."

She slowly looked at Su Qingci, and when she saw her slightly bulging belly, she was shocked, "Madam, you...you?"

Xiao He was afraid that she could not stand steadily, so she helped Su Qingci sit down.

"I am fine."

"Don't worry, I'm carrying Lu Huan's child."

Xiao He wiped her tears quietly, "I am not worried about this, I am just worried that your body can't handle it."

Xiao He had watched her and Lu Huan all the way here, and knew how loving they were. Even if Su Qingci didn't tell her what she had been going through these days, Xiao He could guess a little.

She didn't love Yan Xuanye, and she still cared about their general in her heart, but she was away from home and had to restrain her temperament.

Their wives have really suffered.

After a long time, Su Qingci finally came to his senses and asked Xiao He in a trembling voice, "Where are Zi Tan and the others now?"

Xiao He turned around and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, she lowered her head and said to her, "Don't worry, Madam. Sister Zi Tan also knows that I was kidnapped by them."

"When they kidnapped me, I was gathering information with Sister Zitan on the street, trying to find your whereabouts. Sister Zitan saw me being kidnapped."

"The people who arrested me found an excuse to say that I was a runaway slave from an official's family and wanted to take me back, but Sister Zitan knew that I was not a runaway slave."

"I was taken away suddenly this time because they were trying to trick me. Sister Zitan will definitely follow them to save us."

Su Qingci bit her lower lip and nodded silently.

It would be better if Zitan would bring people to rescue her.

She had to go to Yizhou in person to inquire about Lu Huan's death before she could believe it.

Before that, she had to wait for Zitan to come and rescue them.

……

That night, Su Qingci started to feel pain in her lower abdomen again, and soon she started to bleed, which scared herself and Xiaohe a lot.

The maids in the palace ran to find the witch doctor and Yan Xuanye.

Yan Xuanye arrived much faster than expected.

Last time, Su Qingci had a quarrel with him, and the two of them were very unhappy. After Yan Xuanye left in anger, he didn't come to see her for many days. It seemed that he was very angry.

This time her bleeding was more severe than last time, with blood flowing all over her thigh. Su Qingci herself was scared.

Before the witch doctor arrived, she fainted.

After the witch doctor took Su Qingci's pulse, he sighed heavily.

"I said last time when I came here that the princess's body was caused by anger, and she was exhausted both physically and mentally. She needed to be well taken care of and must not be stimulated again."

"In the past ten days or so, the condition has not improved at all. Instead, it has become worse. The mother is listless all day long and is malnourished. How can she take good care of the fetus?"

"You have too much to do and too little to eat, and you are worried too much, and you don't take medicine to take care of your body. Even a body made of iron can't stand it." Now that the mother is bleeding so heavily, it is an ominous sign. "

Yan Xuanye was extremely worried and asked in a trembling voice, "Can the child still be saved?"

The witch doctor shook his head helplessly: "If you had taken good care of the baby when you first diagnosed the pregnancy pulse, there would still be hope."

"Now... even if we delay the use of medicine, we can only save the mother for about a month at most. The longer we delay, the more dangerous the mother will be..."

Yan Xuanye frowned, his expression solemn, "What do you mean?"

"Cut the Gordian knot."

"The mother's body is not healthy to begin with, and she is allowing the fetus to continue to absorb the mother's own nutrients. If this continues, if she miscarries, the mother will be more likely to be in danger."
