Mr. Quan's mood was obviously depressed.
His face was haggard, and the signs of aging were clearly visible on a high-level genetic evolver.
Grandpa Quan whispered, "In order to obtain this video, our Quan family paid a huge price..."
"Children are all debts... Alas..."
Quan Jiuyi could not hear his old father's sigh, and his eyes of surprise and doubt were cast straight at the virtual display screen in front of him.
What is shown on the virtual display screen is a very unfamiliar place.
It seemed to be in the wilderness, at dusk, with no one around.
The sunset glow in the sky is layered and so thick that it is about to fall to the ground.
The sky is filled with rays of light, and the strong colors are layered on top of each other. Broken gold, deep red, orange, pink purple, azure blue, and orange-red are intertwined together, dyeing the green grass into an abstract canvas.
The emperor, who looked very young at the time, was wearing a white robe embroidered with black lotus flowers, holding a very luxurious dark gold kesi swaddling cloth, and standing in front of a carved pillar.
The pillar was about 1.5 meters high, reaching the emperor's chest.
At the top of the pillar is a lotus flower carved from stone.
The lotus blooms like a basin of water.
In the stone lotus basin, sparkling water splashes.
The emperor lifted up the swaddling clothes, revealing the face of the baby inside. He looked towards the sunset with a pious expression.
After the emperor, dressed in a formal gown, finished his blessing, he carefully opened the baby's swaddling clothes, revealing her unhealed umbilical cord, and then placed her naked in the lotus basin with water to soak her.
Then he picked up the baby girl and wrapped her body in a snow-white towel.
Then a man who looked like a eunuch appeared and poured out the water in the lotus basin.
The next moment, a strangely shaped scimitar appeared in the emperor's hand.
If you look closely, you will see that the blade of the scimitar is not a sharp blade, but has fine, serrated cracks, like the jagged teeth of a monster.
He used this knife to slowly cut the baby girl's neck, one cut at a time, like a saw.
The newborn baby girl let out a horrific cry.
That means that as soon as you are born into this world, you will experience the pain and helplessness of the great sufferings of the world.
Quan Jiuyi couldn't help but let out a scream.
She hugged her body and cried bitterly.
On the virtual display screen, drops of blood finally flowed out from the delicate little neck that was cut into jagged shapes.
Time went by very slowly. I didn't know how long it had passed before a shallow pool of blood gathered at the bottom of the lotus pot.
The little baby girl's cries were hoarse, as if there was something wrong with her vocal cords.
She no longer had the strength to struggle, and just cried a few times like a kitten, and then fell silent.
In the picture, as the little baby girl took her last breath, her pink and white skin instantly turned dark blue.
Quan Jiuyi suddenly covered his mouth with his hands to block out the heart-wrenching cries.
She whimpered to herself.
"My little girl, stop crying, and I won't cry either..."
"My little girl, stop crying, and I won't cry either..."
Repeat over and over again.
Quan Yuxun looked at his grandfather with some worry, then at his father.
Mr. Quan shook his head slightly at him and told him not to interfere.
Quan Juntai nodded, indicating that he agreed with Mr. Quan's opinion.
Quan and Xun also knew that they both believed that serious illnesses required drastic measures.
The severity of Quan Jiuyi's "illness" was such that even strong medicine was needed to cure him.
Quan Yuxun sighed softly and turned his gaze to the virtual display screen.
On the screen, the emperor picked up the lotus pot and suddenly tilted it forward.
The blood sprayed forward, but instead of falling to the ground like raindrops, it seemed as if it encountered an invisible wall in mid-air.
The bright red color just "hangs" in the air.
The red color of blood spread on the invisible wall, as if painting.
Soon, the edges of the "wall" began to flicker.
It turned out that the painting was of a door.
On the virtual display screen, the young emperor was overjoyed, rubbing his hands, and he almost couldn't wait to push open the door!
But the edge of the wall kept flickering until it gradually faded away, and no real door was formed.
The young emperor's expression darkened.
He put his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "As expected, Jiuyi's daughter's blood is still not enough to open that door."
…
The picture suddenly stopped and the video ended.
Quan Jiuyi was still staring blankly at the direction where the virtual display screen had just appeared, muttering, "How could this happen... How could this happen..."
"When I was pregnant, he told me again and again that I was the person he loved most."
"He hopes that his daughter and I can obtain the most honorable princess status, rather than being an illegitimate daughter that everyone looks down upon..."
"So he wants... he wants... to exchange my child for the Queen's child..."
"I was obsessed with giving my children the best I could."
"My due date is different from the Queen's, but in order to give my child the identity of a legitimate child, I agreed to an early Caesarian section."
"That day, he said, was the Queen's due date..."
"That day, I also learned that the Queen had labored in the palace and was giving birth. I agreed to a caesarean section..."
Quan Jiuyi finally covered his face and burst into tears.
"How could this happen?! How could this happen?!"
"My daughter... my poor daughter..."
“Why…why is this…”
