When the man in black carried Li Shengyi into the room, a strong and bitter smell of medicine instantly filled the nostrils of both of them.
There seemed to be someone talking in the inner room, but because of the screen and bead curtain, Li Shengyi couldn't hear clearly.
With her toes touching the ground, she turned her head to look at the man who had already knelt beside her, "Miss Shengyi is here."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left the room without caring about the reactions of the people inside.
He also closed the door.
The strong, bitter smell of medicine in the room suddenly became sticky.
Li Shengyi stood there and looked around, and found that not even a window in the room was open.
With such a strong medicinal smell and an airtight environment, if the owner of the room is seriously ill, it would be strange if his condition could get better staying here.
However, before she was captured, she always thought that it was the Second Prince who sent people to capture her.
Judging from the medicinal smell in the room...
There were faint sounds of footsteps in her ears. Li Shengyi turned around and saw a slender figure walking through the screen and towards her. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw the other person's thin appearance.
"What? You didn't expect it to be me?"
"Aren't you always smart?"
A hoarse voice sounded above my head.
Seeing the other party approaching him, Li Shengyi took two steps back, "Your Highness."
"I just didn't expect that you would become like this now, Your Majesty."
The neither humble nor arrogant tone fell into Su Jinrou's ears, causing the latter's already pale face to twist into a ball in an instant.
In just a few days, she went from being the most favored imperial concubine in the Great Chu to falling into the dust and becoming a slut laughed at by countless people.
She has been living here for several days, but her health has not improved.
Doctors came one after another, and they all said that she was depressed and that heart disease needed to be treated with heart medicine.
It's not that I have a knot in my heart.
Now she has finally figured out the knot in her heart.
With her bloodless lips slightly raised, Su Jinrou came to sit on the soft couch beside her. After just a few steps, fatigue appeared on her face.
The pair of fox eyes that were usually the most alluring now became dull and lifeless.
"This is all thanks to your kindness, isn't it? Without your kindness, how could I have fallen to this point?"
Li Shengyi was not idle either. She had no idea that she was kidnapped. She ran to the round table and sat down, and took an apple and put it in her mouth to chew.
Seeing her fearlessness, Su Jinrou's eyes flashed with resentment, "Shengyi, aren't you afraid that I might poison that fruit?"
Li Shengyi shook his head, swallowed the fruit in his mouth, and then said, "Your Majesty can't and dare not. Your Majesty is now at a disadvantage, and you must know how much my father loves me."
"If Your Majesty poisons me to death, not only will my father not let you go, but neither will the Second Prince or the Fifth Prince."
Her words made Su Jinrou unable to pretend anymore.
He suddenly sat up from the couch, but the words he wanted to shout were stuck in his throat, unable to come out or down.
The miscarriage she had suffered some time ago had left her in extremely poor health, and coupled with her unresolved emotional issues, she had been feeling depressed during this period.
As time went by, her originally healthy body became skin and bones, and she could be blown down by the wind.
After finally recovering from the shock, Su Jinrou took a deep breath and said hoarsely, "You're such a sharp-tongued person! When I first met you in Qinghua Palace, I should have followed my heart and killed you straight away."
Li Shengyi shrugged upon hearing this, "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. The Queen wanted to kill me but didn't because she wanted to use me to get closer to my father."
"It's a pity that some things are not what the Queen wants, so they can be obtained as a matter of course."
Every word of the soft child's voice in the room was like a sharp blade, piercing Su Jinrou's heart.
Her hands were clenched into fists, and her nails, which had not been trimmed for a long time, had grown a lot longer. Now her nails were deeply embedded in the soft flesh of her palms, but she did not feel any pain at all.
Pulling the corners of her lips, she changed the subject, "Do you know why I asked you to come here today?"
The word "please" made Li Shengyi laugh. She put down the apple in her hand, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were sharp.
"Your Majesty, what else could you have done to tie me up? You simply wanted to use me, shackle my father, and make him bow down to you."
"My Lady, this world can continue to thrive even without anyone else. Why do you have to take yourself so seriously?"
Her sharp tongue completely surprised Su Jinrou.
I thought Li Shengyi was just a little more sensible than an ordinary five-year-old child.
But she even knew all this and could still preach to herself.
A bloodthirsty smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and Su Jinrou shook her head. "You are wrong about this. I didn't kidnap you. You came here because I begged you to."
"The Second Prince is cruel by nature. Since Shengyi is so smart, he must have heard about his love for children."
"It's a pity that a while ago, a blind assassin cut the Second Prince's body... The Second Prince has always been resentful about this incident. Then, the Second Prince found out that you were involved."
Her fingers gently stroked the animal hide on the soft couch, and a fake smile appeared on her face. "Shengyi, I am here to remind you to be careful of the Second Prince."
"Oh, I guessed what you were thinking, so you changed the subject. You 'kindly' reminded me that the Second Prince is not a good person, hoping to win my favor and make my father submit to you."
Li Shengyi exposed her intention without thinking.
Li Shengyi jumped off the stool and walked over to her with his short legs. He supported his thighs with both hands and leaned forward to look at her. "My Lady, why are you doing this?"
Su Jinrou choked on the spot.
Looking at the cute and lovely little face in front of her, she could already imagine how stunning this little face would be when it grew up.
Thinking of Qin Songmo and Meng Jiuan behind Li Shengyi, thinking of her wealth and glory, thinking of the Crown Prince's love for her...
His already pale complexion turned into a dark blue.
Su Jinrou took another deep breath and smiled at the person in front of her, "Because you deserve to die."
"I remember that you never existed in my dreams. Why did you suddenly appear, instigating the relationship between me and Yuan Qing, and harming me to this extent?"
"It's all because of you that I ended up like this. Li Shengyi, who the hell are you?!"
Oh wow, I didn’t expect Su Jinrou to have the ability to predict dreams.
Li Shengyi raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
She looked at the ferocious expression that appeared on Su Jinrou's face, and the curve of her lips suddenly deepened.
Then, she approached the other person with a mysterious look on her face and said, "Since the Imperial Concubine knows everything, then this Fairy will not hide it from you."
"Su Jinrou, do you know that there are not only humans and animals in this world, but also people watching you from the sky."
"And this fairy is that person."
