Zhong Miao Yi carried the child and sat beside the bed for a long time.
The porcelain bottle was still in her hand. She closed her eyes tightly and never opened them again.
Zhong Miao Yi didn't know what she should be doing or responding to right now.
She knew that the person beside her was already dead.
Su Zeyi had said it before, those pills were very toxic and would not cause any pain, so the virtuous wife walked very peacefully, as if she was asleep.
Since the Aunt Sun didn't come in, she probably didn't dare to come in for fear that she wouldn't be able to handle it.
In the empty room, the candles were almost burnt out, shaking as if they were about to go out.
The child's sudden cry scared Zhong Miao Yi so much that her whole body trembled. She subconsciously hugged the child and shook it, but the child's cry did not seem to stop at all.
Zhong Miao Yi stuck his face close to his face, but he still moved randomly. She didn't know why, but the ear-piercing sound of her crying sounded especially lonely and desperate on this night.
Aunt Sun still could not let the child go. She pushed open the door, hesitated for a long time, and then walked to Zhong Miao Yi's side: "Sir, please give the child to me."
Zhong Miao Yi was unwilling to let go. She really had nothing left now, she only had this child. She was going back to the palace, and no one could help her.
"Honored one, it is not good for you to hold a child like this. The child might be hungry and lose his mother. There's always something else to eat. " Aunt Sun choked with sobs. It was too pitiful. Whether it was Zhong Miao Yi or the child in her arms, both were too pitiful.
Zhong Miao Yi was stunned, a sharp and ear-piercing wail pierced her ears.
So it was because he was hungry.
Zhong Miao Yi paused for a moment, and still passed the child to Aunt Sun: "Aunt, did you cut off the roses?"
When she didn't want to go out, she would see that eye-catching color again, a color that was out of place.
The Aunt Sun sighed, "It has already been cut off, I let Shun Cheng put it outside the courtyard."
Zhong Miao Yi nodded, she did not have the courage to turn around and look at the Consort Xian. She could only help herself stand up and let the Aunt Sun take the child outside, she could do it by herself.
Aunt Sun replied. When she reached the door, she suddenly said: "Honorable person. Let's go and see the old master. "
After saying that, he left the place, the words had no beginning and no end, Zhong Miao Yi did not react for a long time.
Why did the Aunt Sun want her to see the crippled monarch? Say goodbye?
Zhong Miao Yi felt that there was no need to bid farewell. The two of them looked at each other and could think of too many things.
But Aunt Sun would not say that for no reason at all. She wanted to cry, but there were no tears.
His heart was in too much pain, so much so that even breathing was difficult. There was no way he could shed any tears. The pain had already dried him up.
When Zhong Miao Yi walked out of the door, she had always been waiting for her at the entrance. Her tears flowed down continuously, and she didn't even have the time to wipe them away before supporting him with her arms, "My dear man."
The moment Zhong Miao Yi stepped out of the door, her legs softened and she directly kneeled on the ground. Ah Jiu was unable to pull her away, so she could only lean against the door and look towards the sky with a wooden expression.
"Ah Jiu, tell me, how many mistakes did I do in my previous life? Is this how the heavens will punish me in this life?" Her tone was cold and despairing, to the point where Ah Jiu felt that she was about to make a slight move in just a short moment.
"My lord, don't let your thoughts run wild." She said carefully, kneeling beside Zhong Miao Yi, "Let's leave this place as soon as possible."
The Zhong Miao Yi smiled coldly. Leaving this place, returning to the palace, there was only an even more despairing abyss waiting for her. The road ahead, she really didn't know how to go about it.
"Wait for me here." Zhong Miao Yi stood up with difficulty. She did not have much strength left.
Her whole body was trembling, but she still didn't want Ah Jiu to follow her.
When the time came, Consort Xian did not tell the Zhong Miao Yi anything. She probably understood and understood what was going on, so she left in a carefree and peaceful manner.
This was probably the best result. There was no pain and struggle, no pain and pleading, but the more it was like this, the more the knot in Zhong Miao Yi's heart could not be unraveled.
Would the child blame her when he grew up? Could he blame her for killing his mother?
Zhong Miao Yi did not know what would happen in the future. No one knew when she would never be able to see the sun tomorrow, nor did she know whether or not she would really be able to protect this child.
A lamp was lit in the abandoned monarch's courtyard.
He sat motionlessly under the light.
Zhong Miao Yi walked over very slowly. After walking for a few steps, Zhong Miao Yi felt like she had walked for an entire lifetime.
"She's gone."
The Zhong Miao Yi opened her mouth, wanting to say something more. She found that she was unable to say anything, such as words of comfort, words of self-deception, or other things.
It was unknown if the cripple heard these four words. He was silent for a long time, and then he suddenly laughed in a low voice.
It was the kind of laughter that would give people goosebumps.
Zhong Miao Yi did not know what had happened to him. He just laughed like that, laughed and began to mutter softly, "She left. She left. She's gone. "
Again and again, accompanied by that laughter, it was like a terrifying incantation resounding in the ears of the Zhong Miao Yi.
Zhong Miao Yi wanted him to stop, but this kind of laughter was simply impossible to adapt to. She shouted, "Stop laughing! Don't laugh! "
His entire person seemed to be in his own world, he did not hear anything Zhong Miao Yi said, only three words left in his mouth, "She is gone."
The Zhong Miao Yi walked up to pull him back, wanting him to clear his mind. However, the cripple's body was soft, so the moment Zhong Miao Yi pulled him back, he let go, and Zhong Miao Yi was able to clearly see the cripple's face in an instant. His expression was blank as she uttered those words expressionlessly, and his entire body kept twitching uncontrollably.
Zhong Miao Yi called out to him, but he didn't react at all. She helplessly watched as he squeezed out a laugh from his throat, but there wasn't the slightest bit of emotion on her face.
The Zhong Miao Yi was so frightened that she quickly took a step back. She forgot that there were only the steps behind her, and with a step on the air, she couldn't find any support in the air and fell down.
She felt her head touch the ground. There was a hum, and finally there was no sound.
Soon after, everything became pitch black. In the last second before he lost his consciousness, Zhong Miao Yi only had one thought in his mind.
He was crazy.
