"Yun'er, look at His Majesty now... doesn't he look different?"
At that time, she didn't know what the Empress Dowager meant, but later...
"Yun'er, some things require some means, and some people need to be pushed to understand... Yun'er, anything that can achieve the goal can be used. Right now... the most useful thing is His Majesty's affection for you... Do you understand? Use a non-existent child to make him feel guilty for half a lifetime, it's not a bad deal..."
Today, the Empress Dowager deliberately let Luo Yuncheng stay because she knew that Yu Jingchen had Xinglai investigate when he saw Luo Yuncheng yesterday. Isn't today the perfect time?
She had taken the medicine given to her by the Empress Dowager today, so her pregnancy was already a false pregnancy, and now it would naturally be a false miscarriage. After Yu Jingchen arrived, all she needed to do was make him "kill his own child," and her goal would be achieved.
Those last words... were spoken at the Empress Dowager's behest. As for the purpose... Nan Zhiyun was actually somewhat confused, but just now, she seemed to understand something.
Inside the room, everything was bustling with activity. Yu Jingchen stood outside, hesitant to go in. Xing Lai stood beside him, his heart filled with despair. How had things come to this? And what... should they do next?
The commotion inside the room was exaggerated. Yu Jingchen watched as basins of bloody water were brought out one after another. It was as if an invisible hand was gripping him, making him feel suffocated.
He desperately wanted to go in, but his feet seemed rooted to the spot, unable to step out. He was afraid. What would he do once he was inside?

She liked herself, fell in love with herself, but she condemned herself because of it... How unbearable must it have been for her to bear all that bitterness, sorrow, and despair all alone during that time?
At this moment, Yu Jingchen seemed to realize that Nan Zhiyun hadn't done anything wrong from beginning to end; she was innocent. It was he... he was wrong. He had vented all his anger on a little girl who was so devoted to him... He had been far too wrong.
Yu Jingchen's heart ached terribly. What should he do? This time… he regretted it. But it seemed too late now. If only he had acted just a little earlier, even just a tiny bit earlier, things wouldn't be so bad now. He was sorry… but was an apology even useful? Nan Zhiyun had probably really given up by now, hadn't she? How did things turn out this way?
