Liu Qianyu slowly opened her collar, revealing the eye-catching kiss marks above and below her collarbone, and raised a provocative smile.

"Oh? Then may I ask, mistress, do you have it? This is the mark of His Majesty's love. I have it all over my body every day, and it disappears and disappears."

The queen's face turned pale and she was shaking with anger. She could no longer maintain her composure.

"You slut! You have no shame! I will never let you go!"

Before she finished her words, the queen suddenly stood up and tried to push Liu Qianyu away with both hands.

Liu Qianyu took advantage of the situation, leaned back and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Murong Di Ze rushed into the hall like an arrow.

He witnessed the Queen pushing Liu Qianyu down, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited, and his eyes turned red as blood.

"Baoer!"

He ran over shouting, his voice filled with endless anxiety and heartache.

Murong Di Ze hugged Liu Qianyu tightly in his arms, his eyes falling on the shocking bloodstains under her body.

The bloodstain was like a blazing knife, burning deeply into his heart. It hurt, it hurt so much.

He was in excruciating pain, could hardly breathe, and his eyes were so sore that they were about to burst into tears.

The person he loved was hurt right under his nose.

What's even more sad is that although he is the emperor, he cannot turn back time and cannot stop all this from happening, which makes him panic and at a loss.

"Baoer! Don't be afraid, Aze is here!"

The queen was shocked, and before she could come to her senses, she saw Murong Di Ze glaring at her.

The eyes were bright red and dazzling, as if containing overwhelming hatred.

Murong Dize's words were like a cold blade, cruel and hard, cutting deeply into her heart, making her feel extremely painful and desperate.

"Zhou Jinyu, I've said before that my Imperial Concubine and my child are my weak spot, and you dare to touch them!"

After saying that, he didn't even look at the queen again, but just rushed out holding Liu Qianyu tightly.

"Imperial Physician! Send the message to the Imperial Physician quickly!"

His voice echoed in the palace, carrying endless anxiety and expectation.

Ji Rui saw the emperor running out with a panicked look on his face, holding the imperial concubine in his arms. He hurriedly knelt and crawled to catch up.

Oh my God, who is so reckless that he dares to touch the apple of your majesty's eye!

The queen collapsed to the ground, looking helplessly at Aunt Zhang beside her, her voice filled with tears, as if she were an abandoned child.

"Mammy... that bitch is so cruel that she can even kill her own child. Will the emperor believe me?"

Nanny Zhang sighed inwardly and could only silently help the Queen up.

She knew in her heart that the emperor had seen it with his own eyes and would not easily believe the queen's explanation.

Murong Di Ze gently and carefully placed Liu Qianyu on the bed. The imperial physician was already on standby and hurried forward to treat her.

"Make sure to protect my imperial concubine."

Murong Di Ze's voice was firm and unquestionable, as if it was a cry from the depths of his soul.

After some tense and anxious treatment, the imperial physician reported to Murong Di Ze with a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has been pregnant for more than a month, but the impact was severe and the baby... could not be saved."

Murong Di Ze felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife, and was in agony.

He tried hard to hold back his tears, but ultimately he couldn't control them and the tears rolled down his cheeks.

"Bao'er, my Bao'er, it's my fault. I didn't protect you and our child well..."

His choked voice was filled with endless sorrow and self-blame.

Liu Qianyu felt Murong Di Ze's great grief. She quickly reached out her hand, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and comforted him guiltily.

"Aze, don't cry. I'm not hurt, really."

Pain and regret came flooding over him, and Murong Di Ze clenched his teeth tightly, as if he wanted to swallow all the pain into his heart.

The strong smell of blood filled his mouth, which was the grief he could not suppress.

Liu Qianyu saw bright red blood flowing out from the corner of his mouth.

She hurriedly reached out her hand, trying to pry open his mouth so that he would stop hurting herself like this.

"Aze, don't be like this, I feel bad."

Aze, I regret it.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have used this method.

At this time, the Queen Mother hurried over and asked anxiously as soon as she entered the door.

"How is the Imperial Concubine?"

When she learned that her child was gone, she swayed and almost fainted. Fortunately, the nanny beside her supported her in time.

The Queen Mother burst into tears and blamed herself.

"It's all my fault. I didn't choose the right queen for my son, and now my grandson has been harmed!"

Murong Di Ze turned his head and secretly wiped the tears and blood from his face with his sleeves.

He suppressed his grief and comforted the Queen Mother.

"Mother, this is not your fault. It was my son who failed to protect them!"

An uncontrollable desire to kill surged in Murong Di Ze's heart.

He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with cold, bloodthirsty murderous intent.

"Pass on my decree. Immediately close the Yongfu Palace. No one is allowed to enter or leave! Order the Dali Temple to set up a special case and conduct a thorough investigation of the entire harem. No matter who is involved, they will be severely punished without mercy!"

"My dear, you..."

The Queen Mother hesitated to speak, and finally could only let out a heavy sigh.

"Oh, I hope this will all be resolved soon."

Murong Dize did not turn around, but his voice was clearly heard by the empress dowager.

"Mother, I cannot let anyone hurt Baoer and our child again."

For a moment, the former court and the harem seemed to be swept by an invisible storm and fell into panic.

The night was dark and the moonlight was as bright as a silver thread, but it could not illuminate the thick haze in Murong Dize's heart.

He sank into a bizarre dream, where there was no glory of imperial power, only endless darkness and despair.

In his dream, he seemed to be in a bloody world, filled with a pungent smell of rust, and low and suppressed wails echoed in the air.

He searched anxiously until the familiar figure came into view.

His precious child lay quietly in a glaring pool of blood, her face pale and eyes closed, like a withered white lotus, beautiful and fragile.

Murong Dize's heart suddenly shrank, fear and despair swept over like a wave, completely drowning him.

He staggered towards Liu Qianyu, and every step felt like walking on a knife edge, excruciating pain.

When he finally touched that cold body, the whole world seemed to stop.

He hugged her tightly, wanting to merge her into his own bones and blood, but the person in his arms did not respond at all. Only the glaring red color kept reminding him that everything was irreversible.

"Baoer! Don't leave me!"

He roared, his voice filled with pain that penetrated his bones, and tears poured out like a flood, blurring his vision.

He cried and begged in agony, but all he got in response was dead silence and emptiness.

He hugged Liu Qianyu tightly, hoping that this would stop the slip of life, but the person in his arms became lighter and lighter, as if she would turn into a wisp of smoke at any time and disappear into the endless darkness.

"Baoer~"

Murong Di Ze woke up from the nightmare with a scream, sat up, his whole body was stiff as iron, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.

His eyes were filled with fear and anxiety, as if he had just returned from hell.

Liu Qianyu was awakened from her sleep by his shouting, and saw Murong Di Ze's face full of tears and fear.

She felt so distressed that she quickly hugged him in her arms.

"Aze, don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm fine."

In Liu Qianyu's arms, Murong Di Ze gradually regained some sanity and realized that it was just a nightmare.

The strength accumulated in his body was suddenly drained away, and he leaned in Liu Qianyu's arms like a puppet that was about to fall apart.

Tears slid silently and dripped onto her neck, carrying with her endless guilt and self-blame.

"Baoer, it's all my fault..." he said while choking.

"I was too rigid in my adherence to etiquette and I failed to protect you and our child..."

Liu Qianyu gently stroked his back and hugged him tightly with heartache.

"Ah Ze, believe me, our child will definitely come back."

Murong Di Ze rubbed her, whispering in her ears with great affection.

"Yes, I believe it."
