At this moment, in the sky prison, Lady Zhen leaned on Ruan Changtian. Seeing Elder Fang tied to a pillar and the Fang family members trembling around him, she felt extremely relieved.
"Your Majesty, I want to see what color this old man's heart is."
The white little hand was circling around Ruan Changtian's chest, which made Ruan Changtian very happy.
"Hahahaha, since my beloved concubine wants to see it, then I will naturally agree."
After saying that, Ruan Changtian signaled the guard beside him to bring a sharp knife and dig out Elder Fang's heart.
"Ruan Changtian, you have killed loyal ministers and good generals, you will not die a good death."
At this moment, Elder Fang had no hope of pleading, and even spoke less timidly than before.
He might not support such a king, but Ruan Changtian actually killed his entire family. From now on, even if he turns into a ghost, he will never forgive him!
As soon as Elder Fang finished speaking, the sharp knife had already cut through his chest. The guard reached out and pulled hard, peeling Elder Fang's heart out alive.
The entire cell was filled with Elder Fang's screams until he died. All the men, women, and children in the Fang family almost fainted from crying.
Seeing the bloody heart presented by the guard, which was still beating vigorously, Mu Zhen felt her appetite increase.
In an instant, a gust of wind blew by, and the heart on the plate disappeared without a trace.
Ruan Changtian was instantly furious, "Who dares to steal this heart in front of me?"
However, no one around responded, and the only response he received was Mu Zhen's comfort.
"Your Majesty, it's just a heart. We have plenty of them here."
Mu Zhen's eyes swept over the Fang family, young and old, but her gaze still remained on the heart of Elder Fang in her treasure bag.
It is truly the heart of a loyal minister, it looks dazzlingly red, and when you take a bite, the fresh gushing blood is truly unforgettable.
Han Xiangxu just stayed behind Ruan Changtian and Mu Zhen, quietly watching everything around him. Even though he didn't see clearly when the evil wind rose just now, he was very sure that it was the spell cast by Li Yuan in Ji Xiaoman's body. Now he was just a Taoist priest who was not even half-baked. How could he compete with a thousand-year-old monster like Li Yuan?
Everyone in the Fang family seemed to notice the unkindness in Mu Zhen's eyes, and they were secretly sweating in their hearts. Qin Ya was even more worried that something might happen to the baby in her belly, so she quickly reached out and tightly protected her belly.
Now her father-in-law has passed away, and her father is far away at the border. Even if she got the news today and rushed over as fast as she could, it would be too late.
But she was unwilling to give up any chance. Now, as long as she could find a way to delay time and wait for her father to return to Beijing, there would be a glimmer of hope for her family.
For the time being, she must not let anything go wrong for herself or her child.
Fang Hai also protected Qin Ya tightly, fearing that Qin Ya would attract their attention. It didn't matter if he died, but Qin Ya had their six-month-old baby in her belly.
Nothing can happen to this child.
The two poor people didn't know that Mu Zhen was originally going for their unborn child. At just one glance, Mu Zhen noticed Qin Ya, and her eyes kept moving around Qin Ya's lower abdomen.
Fang Hai noticed Mu Zhen's unfriendly look, so he hurried forward to apologize and was willing to take the punishment for Qin Ya.
"Oh? Who said Qin Ya would be punished?"
Mu Zhen played with the hair in her hands, her tone was a little naive.
After hearing Mu Zhen's words, Qin Ya and Fang Hai were reluctantly relieved, but Mu Zhen's next words made them both feel disappointed.
"Your Majesty, please guess whether the baby in her belly is a boy or a girl."
Ruan Changtian narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. He felt that the direction of Qin Ya's belly was very similar to that of his own concubine when she was pregnant, so he guessed that the baby in Qin Ya's belly was a boy.
Mu Zhen leaned on Ruan Changtian's shoulder and said in a playful tone, "I think the baby in Qin Ya's belly is a girl."
For a moment, Ruan Changtian and Mu Zhen had different opinions, and Ruan Changtian couldn't help but become more curious about the answer to this question.
"Your Majesty, to know whether the fetus is a boy or a girl, all you need is, um..."
Mu Zhen made a cutting motion on her stomach with her hands, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
Her beautiful eyes were naturally extremely gorgeous, and now because of her great interest and anticipation for this matter, they seemed even more alluring.
Ruan Changtian only stared into Mu Zhen's eyes for a second before he was completely mesmerized.
"Then let's do as my beloved concubine says. Come, take the pregnant woman's intestines and stomach out for me. I want to see whether the baby in her belly is a boy or a girl."
After saying that, Ruan Changtian did not forget to tease Mu Zhen, "So what if I guessed right, my beloved, huh?"
Mu Zhen coquettishly put her arms around Ruan Changtian's neck, her tone full of charm, "Of course, I will leave it to the emperor to deal with."
Ruan Changtian was very satisfied with Mu Zhen's answer, so he raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Zhen, "If my beloved concubine guesses correctly, I will order people to build a most magnificent palace for you in the south of the city, how about it?"
Mu Zhen giggled and threw herself into Ruan Changtian's arms, "Your Majesty, you are so good to me."
Ruan Changtian was so delighted by Mu Zhen's every word that he regarded himself as King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty, with the power to rule the world.
"Your Majesty, please show mercy and forgive my beloved wife. My child with her is already six months old. In another four months, she will be able to give birth. Since ancient times, imprisonment has never been as severe as the punishment for a pregnant woman. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
But at this moment, Ruan Changtian would not listen to Fang Hai's plea for mercy. With just a glance, the originally restless Fang family members were restrained by several strong guards.
Qin Ya was held up by several people, lifted onto a chopping board, and had her limbs tied up, looking like a sow waiting to be slaughtered.
As a guard's sharp knife fell, Qin Ya let out a heart-wrenching howl. Even Han Xiangxu, who was skinning people alive, could not bear to see such a bloody scene, so he frowned and closed his eyes.
A strong smell of blood spread around. The guards held a red fetus and put it on a tray, then presented it to Ruan Changtian and Mu Zhen.
Looking closely, the fetus's pulse is still beating and it is developing very well. I'm afraid it will be ready for delivery in another month or two.
"Your Majesty, you guessed it right. Your Majesty is truly worthy of being the Son of Heaven, with your brilliant foresight."
Ruan Changtian was overjoyed the moment he saw the fetus, and now he was even more overwhelmed by Mu Zhen's praise.
"My beloved, you can't go back on your word."
Mu Zhen nestled shyly in Ruan Changtian's arms, her tone shy and soft, "Your Majesty~"
On the stage, Ruan Changtian and Mu Zhen were laughing and joking, while below the stage, there was a pregnant woman whose belly had been ripped open. Qin Ya was almost dead at this moment, but her eyes were already bloodshot and her eyes were wide open, which made people feel cold just by looking at her.
"Your Majesty, I am tired today. Let them deal with the rest of the people."
