A dream ends life

"Aci! Ah...Aci..." Yu Luohan slapped the assassin in front of him away and rushed to Su Ci regardless of everything.

With trembling hands, he picked up Su Ci from the cold floor and let her lean on him.

A mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth, and Su Ci was barely able to breathe.

Yu Luohan was at a loss as to what to do and tried to wipe the blood clean with his hands, but his slender white fingers were stained red and he failed to wipe the blood off the corner of Su Ci's mouth.

Looking at Yu Luohan, then at the emperor and the empress dowager on the high steps, Su Ci laughed sarcastically.

"I thought you would die if she left you, but it turns out it doesn't matter if one of you leaves the other."

Gu Peiyi was surrounded by black potassium guards, and the assassins couldn't even damage the corners of their clothes.

Yu Luohan's actions became a joke!

Yu Luohan's face turned even paler, and he looked like he wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

Su Ci stopped looking at him and used all her strength to look at the scene in the hall.

"Imperial Physician! Call the imperial physician quickly!" Yu Luohan's voice was tense and urgent.

"Aci! I didn't mean it. I will make it up to you. Let's live a good life from now on, okay?" Yu Luohan was shaking.

Su Ci uttered a few words with difficulty: "You make me sick!"

Yu Luohan widened his eyes in disbelief.

……

When she opened her eyes again, Su Ci was lying on the soft bed, and she could smell the familiar scent of the goose pear tent.

"Madam, are you awake? I scared you to death. If anything happens to you, I will die!"

Chunshui's face appeared in front of her, and the girl spoke her last words while crying.

"Chun Shui, I'm not dead?" He touched the gauze wrapped around his chest, feeling a dull pain inside.

"Pooh! Madam will not die. Madam is a good person. God is blessing you!"

Su Qiao was in a daze. How was she? This girl was really good at making her happy.

"Ma'am, take the medicine quickly. The doctor told you to take the medicine first when you wake up."

"What did the doctor say?"

"Uh...nothing much to say, just that you're weak and you'll be fine if you take good care of yourself for a few days."

Su Ci saw Chunshui's evasive eyes and knew that she was not telling the truth.

"They say that when a person leaves, the tea gets cold. I haven't even left yet, but you don't treat me as your master anymore. I will ask the old housekeeper to transfer you to the front yard to serve you, otherwise you will lose your future if you follow me."

"No, no! Madam, please don't chase me away. Madam, if you have anything to say, please feel free to ask me. I will tell you everything I know."

Su Ci looked at her indifferently. Finally, Chunshui couldn't stand her gaze anymore and knelt down.

"The imperial physician said that Madam's lungs were injured and she might suffer from chronic illness in the future. Also, the baby in Madam's belly is gone. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to have children in the future!" After Chunshui finished speaking, tears started to flow again.

Their lady is such a good person, how could she encounter such things? Why didn’t the lord protect the lady?

A healthy person was summoned into the palace by an imperial decree, and when he came out he was only breathing his last breath. The palace is really a cannibalistic place!

Su Ci closed her eyes and touched her empty stomach, where a little life once stayed. Tears flowed down her eyes.

"Go on! Why is my wound on my chest but my child is gone?"

"that is because…"

"Chun Shui!" Yu Luohan strode in.

"Madam, you woke up, why didn't you go and tell me!"

"Your Excellency, the imperial physician has instructed Madam to take medicine upon waking up, but I have not had time to report this."

Yu Luohan looked at Su Ci, held her hand, and said softly, "Are you feeling better, Ci? Are you feeling unwell anywhere? I'll ask the imperial physician to come and check your pulse."

Su Ci pulled her hand out of his big palm, "What happened to my child?"

Guilt and pain flashed in Yu Luohan's eyes. This child came unexpectedly, and when he knew it was the time he lost him, he was extremely sad.

"The imperial physician said that you were seriously injured and had lost too much blood. Strong medicinal herbs were used to treat your injuries. The child couldn't survive in your stomach, so..."

Su Ci choked up and said, this is her child! The only child in her life.

Yu Luohan held her in his arms and said, "We can have another child later, don't be sad."

He now regretted very much. Why didn't he care about her more? He didn't even know she was pregnant. The baby was more than three months old, and he hadn't been home for more than three months.

Su Ci pushed him away, turned her back to him, and the two fell into silence.

Yu Luohan came to her yard for several days in a row, watched her take medicine, and would not leave until she went to sleep.

In order to make up for Su Ci, good things flowed into her yard like water.

Su Ci remained silent throughout the whole process, until half a month later, when Su Ci finally left the room.

"Madam, it's cold outside, let's go back to your room!" Chunshui followed her nervously.

"I want to eat some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Go to the kitchen and get some. I'll wait for you in the pavilion by the pool!"

Chunshui had no choice but to turn around and go to the kitchen.

Su Ci turned and walked towards the front yard. The imperial physician should have arrived by then.

Every time the imperial physician took her pulse, Yu Luohan would watch in the room until the imperial physician left, not giving her a chance to communicate with the physician. What was he hiding?

Is there any worse outcome than her being unable to have children and spending the rest of her life bedridden?

Yu Luohan, please don't let me down again!

She came to the back window of the study in the front yard. There was someone guarding the front. She discovered this place by accident. It was both hidden and difficult to detect.

"Doctor Liu, if I'm not around from now on, do you know how to respond to Madam?"

"Don't worry, Lord Yu. I know what to say and what not to say. I understand!"

"Well! Here is a five hundred tael note. Take it first. When my wife is safe, there will be another generous reward."

"Thank you, Lord Yu! I'll take my leave now!"

Su Ci frowned.

……

"that's it?"

"Yes! This is all I know. I have been waiting outside. Only Doctor Liu and you know the details."

Su Ci looked unhappy. There must be something strange about the disappearance of her child. The only people that Yu Luohan could protect were the three of them.

In fact, the truth is not difficult to guess. She just instinctively wants to escape.

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Luohan hugged Su Ci from behind.

Su Ci shook her head, "It's just a little short of breath, it will be fine in a while."

Guilt flashed across Yu Luohan's eyes, and he hugged her tighter.

He picked up Su Ci and carried her horizontally towards the large carved bed.

"Ah Ci! Let's have another child. This time I will definitely protect him!"

Su Ci's face turned pale and he began to cough, each cough becoming heavier than the last, as if he was about to burst his lungs.

Yu Luohan patted her back slowly, "What happened? How come you are so powerful!"

After a long while, Su Ci regained his breath and said weakly, "It hurts my lungs. The doctor said it will leave a root of disease. I'll probably be like this for the rest of my life."

Su Ci saw that Yu Luohan's hands were shaking slightly.

"sorry!"

Su Ci laughed when she heard it, and then said sorry again.

She couldn't remember how many times it had happened. Every time she was sad and upset, it would end with these three words.

This gave Yu Luohan the illusion that as long as he admitted his mistake, she would forgive him with a smile.

Yu Luohan, the reason why you can hurt me so much is simply because I care about you.
