Zhao Qian pursed his lips and said nothing. He walked straight past Yan Jiaer's cell and moved forward.
Yan Jiaer felt a pain in her heart when she saw Zhao Qian's decadent back. She stared at him as he walked further and further away, and only looked away when she could no longer see him.
"Jiaer, your brother has already gone to ask the emperor for help. You have just married into Prince Duan's Mansion not long ago, so you should not know anything. You will be fine." Yan Ning said, holding Yan Jiaer's hand.
Yan Jiaer's hands were so cold, as if they had just been fished out of an ice cave, without any warmth at all.
Yan Ning was startled and hurriedly took off the cloak on his shoulders and prepared to put it on Yan Jiaer, but Yan Jiaer refused.
"We're going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter what we wear or whether we're cold or not," said Yan Jiaer.
It seemed as if she was not speaking to Yan Ning. She stared blankly at the ground. The blood on the ground was dropped by Zhao Qian when he passed by just now.
He is injured and it must be very painful.
Yan Ning felt even more distressed when she saw Yan Jiaer like this. She said, "I should have stopped you at the beginning, then you would be fine."
I thought that Prince Duan's teacher just had bad character, but who knew that they were actually seeking death and even imitated others in rebellion, and were discovered before they even started.
Yan Jiaer had only been married for a few days, and she was beheaded before she could even enjoy the good days.
Yan Jiaer suddenly looked up at Yan Ning, forced a smile, and said to Yan Ning, "I am already very content. Marrying him is my lifelong dream.
I told you before that it was my fault, please forgive me. When I am gone, can you help me take care of my aunt? My aunt only gave birth to me, and she will be sad if I am gone.
"Since you know that she will be sad to see her son die young, why do you still insist on doing this? Has he ever looked at you straight in the eye?" Xie Yunjiao said unhappily.
Is it worth giving up your best years for someone like Zhao Qian?
Xie Yunjiao wanted to slap Yan Jiaer twice to see if she could wake her up.
I don’t know how Yan Jiaer was poisoned by Zhao Qian. The poison has already entered her heart and lungs. She can’t be saved!
"Because I love him. Am I the only one in this world who loves him this much? When I die, I will follow him to the underworld, take care of him, and serve him."
"What if he still despises you after he dies? What if he doesn't want your service?" Xie Yunjiao said.
"They are all dead anyway, so who knows?" Yan Jiaer smiled with a bit of bitterness.
It's always good to have some expectations.
"I won't help you take care of Aunt Dong. She is your own aunt, you have to take care of her yourself!" Yan Ning said suddenly with red eyes.
"Forget it then," Yan Jiaer's eyes darkened, "My aunt has already told me that the relationship between us as mother and daughter is not strong enough."
Yan Ning looked at the stubborn Yan Jiaer, and sadness suddenly surged in her heart. She leaned on Xie Yunjiao's shoulder and cried.
Xie Yunjiao patted Yan Ning's shoulder to calm her down, but she didn't know what to say to comfort her.
This kind of thing can only be figured out by the person involved, otherwise no matter how much others say, it will be in vain.
"Yan Ning, you should go back. This place is full of filth and your precious body can't bear it." Yan Jiaer said.
Whenever Yan Ning cries, she becomes breathless and could faint at any time.
She didn't want the only person who cared about her to be sad.
None of her half-siblings came to see her, let alone Yan Ning.
Xie Yunjiao also noticed that something was wrong with Yan Ning. Yan Ning seemed to have started to lose consciousness.
She nodded to Yan Jiaer and left with Yan Ning.
Yan Ning's condition was getting worse and worse, and her whole face became pale and scary.
After Xie Yunjiao brought Yan Ning out of the cell and back to the carriage, she immediately fed Yan Ning spiritual spring water and gave her acupuncture.
After a while, Yan Ning's complexion began to improve.
After returning to the Yan Mansion, Xie Yunjiao told Yan Qing what happened to Yan Ning in the Jingya prison cell, and apologized to Yan Qing, saying that it was her failure to protect Yan Ning that led to Yan Ning's accident.
Yan Qing said it was not Xie Yunjiao's fault. He just knew that Yan Ning was sensitive and fragile and would cry easily, so he asked Xie Yunjiao to accompany Yan Ning to the prison cell to see Yan Jiaer.
Unexpectedly, Yan Jiaer cried so hard that she was out of breath and fainted.
"My sister had this problem before. She cried herself to death when our mother passed away. It was Doctor Ye who saved her.
Later, when my father had an accident, she cried so hard that she fainted again like before."
Xie Yunjiao discovered that Yan Ning's pulse condition was usually not very good, but when she cried and became emotionally excited, her pulse condition became very strange.
Therefore, Yan Ning's disease cannot be cured and can only be alleviated by controlling emotions.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, Yan Ning might have been in trouble. So, Madam Lian, you don't need to blame yourself." Yan Qing said.
Xie Yunjiao suddenly thought of something and asked, "Is there any news about Yan Jiaer?"
Yan Qing pursed his lips and shook his head. "The Emperor is unwilling to give in. He said that if Jia'er was Zhao Qian's concubine or something else, he could turn a blind eye, but since Jia'er is Zhao Qian's principal wife, he will not let her go."
In fact, Yan Qing also knew that the emperor was suspicious and jealous by nature, and Yan Jiaer had left with Zhao Qian for a few days when something happened in Prince Duan's Mansion.
No one knows what happened in between.
What the emperor fears most is the resurgence of evil, so he will not let Yan Jiaer stay in this world.
"Mrs. Lian, if possible, please come and accompany Yan Ning from time to time. I'll take this as a plea from you." Yan Qing said.
"It's okay. Doudou has already finished the Autumn Examination, so I'm free." Xie Yunjiao said.
"Thank you." Yan Qing bowed to Xie Yunjiao.
Soon, Zhao Qian and the remaining followers of Prince Duan were to be beheaded. On the day of the execution, the execution ground was crowded with people.
Zhao Qian was pulled out first, followed by Yan Jiaer, and then others.
Yan Jiaer knelt beside Zhao Qian, watching the burly and ferocious executioner walking towards her. She was so scared that her whole body trembled and she began to cry.
She's just a little girl, how could she not be scared?
"As my, Zhao Qian's, wife, how can you be so timid?" Zhao Qian suddenly said.
Yan Jiaer was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Zhao Qian in surprise: "Prince, what... are you talking about?"
"You, Yan Jiaer, are my, Zhao Qian's legal wife. If you have to die, you must die with dignity. You cannot cry," said Zhao Qian.
Yan Jiaer seemed to see Zhao Qian smiling at her. It was the first time she saw Zhao Qian being so kind to her.
But soon the smile disappeared from his face.
Yan Jiaer also smiled, so happy and satisfied.
