In the following days, Jiang Yi was awakened by nightmares every night. She was extremely worried every day and lost a lot of weight. Even the imperial physician said that if she continued like this, it might be harmful to the fetus in her womb.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yi is a pregnant woman, and no calming incense can be lit around her.
The emperor and Jiang Yi stayed together every night. Watching her struggle in pain, he felt even more resentful towards the man who had harmed Jiang's mother.
If it weren't for that person, Jiang Yi wouldn't have had such a hard life since childhood.
If it weren't for that person, Jiang Yi wouldn't have to suffer this kind of suffering now.
The emperor tried his best to appease Jiang Yi, but it was of no use. He felt powerless and could only order the Dali Temple to investigate the matter as soon as possible.
Jiang Yi occasionally caught a glimpse of the emperor's worried face and knew that his actions should be useful.
Even if it is finally discovered that the person is Princess Rong'an, I think the emperor will still punish her severely.
If she can't achieve her wish, she will think of another way.
Jiang Yi was also powerless in this matter.
Who made her enemies all the emperor’s closest relatives?
She could only gamble on her position in the emperor's heart. If that didn't work, she could only rely on her child.
Three days later, news finally came from the Dali Temple.
Cheng Yi, the Minister of Dali Temple, secretly visited the servants in Jiang's house and learned the truth from the midwife who delivered Jiang's mother.
It turned out that Princess Rong'an bribed the midwife who delivered Jiang's mother, intending to kill two children with one body. However, Jiang's mother's delivery was very smooth. When the midwife came over, Jiang Yi had already been born and was taken to Old Madam Jiang.
The midwife had no choice but to murder Jiang's mother secretly.
Given Princess Rong'an's personality, she should have killed the midwife to silence her, but she thought that Mother Jiang was of little influence and no one would investigate the matter.
But she is the noble Princess. No one would be stupid enough to target her because of a little dead Jiang Mu.
She is not afraid even if they target her, because she is the emperor's sister. No one dares to punish her without the emperor's permission.
This was indeed the case. Mother Jiang died quietly. Even though the Jiang family members had noticed it, they still did not dare to make it public. They even assisted the tyrant and concealed the matter for Princess Rong'an. Afterwards, they demoted Mother Jiang to a concubine.
Jiang Yi only found out about this before he died.
In that life, Princess Rong'an must have lived a very carefree life. She took possession of the husband she snatched from someone else, allowed her children to bully the young Jiang Yi, and finally enjoyed her old age.
Jiang Shan instigated Princess Anle to torture Jiang Yi to death.
None of them paid any price and even lived very recklessly.
All this is because they are of the high and mighty royal bloodline.
It’s only because Jiang Yi was reborn that everything is different.
Even so, it was not easy for Jiang Yi to get to where she is today. The emperor's favor is not easy to obtain. She had to pretend to be obedient, gentle, generous, and ignorant of everything in front of him to get to where she is today.
When she knew the result, Jiang Yi cried and fell into the emperor's arms. She grabbed the emperor's clothes on his chest, her eyes red. She asked the emperor: "What did my mother do wrong? She did nothing. Why did the princess want to kill her? Why?"
"I miss my mom so much."
"When I was little, I saw other people being loved by their mothers. You have no idea how envious I was. At that time, I thought it was because of me that my mother died. It turns out that it was not the case."
"It was the eldest princess who had my mother brutally murdered. She was willing to murder someone just because she had a crush on Jiang Rao."
"She is so vicious."
"And me, I should have had my mother by my side, and be the child doted on by my parents, but no, nothing at all!"
"The eldest princess harmed my mother and ruined my life."
She looked up at the emperor and asked, "Brother Shen Yu, are you going to protect her?"
The emperor was silent for a moment.
Jiang Yi quickly withdrew from the emperor's arms. She kept backing away until she shrank into the corner. When she looked at the emperor, there was no longer the love and dependence in her eyes as before, but instead a sense of alienation.
"You are her brother, so you are naturally on her side. Maybe you helped her in the past."
Jiang Yi's eyes gradually became filled with hatred.
She asked herself, hadn't she ever hated the emperor?
She hated it.
If Shen Yu was not the emperor, his sister would not be the eldest princess, and they would not be able to do such a thing to her and her mother.
His closest relatives have harmed her and her mother for a lifetime. Even if Shen Yu is unaware of it, Jiang Yi will not be spared.
What's more, they relied on him as the emperor to do all these things.
He gave them authority but failed to properly restrain them, allowing them to do evil things outside.
At this moment, Jiang Yi's hatred was genuine.
Looking at the person who was getting farther and farther away from him, the emperor couldn't help but feel very panicked, as if Jiang Yi would no longer belong to him in the next moment.
The emperor stepped forward and wanted to take Jiang Yi back to his arms, but Jiang Yi refused. For the first time in her life, she yelled at the emperor, "Go away! You are in cahoots with them."
Jiang Yi was the one who made the choice for the emperor. If he chose her, he could no longer choose Princess Rong'an or Princess Anle.
She and they were destined to be enemies. If the emperor wanted to protect his sister, she would give in, but from now on, the man in front of her would no longer be in her heart.
He will also become her enemy.
If she has the chance in the future, she will not be soft-hearted towards him.
The emperor's eyes turned red upon hearing this. He forcefully pulled Jiang Yi back into his arms, as if Jiang Yi would never leave. He almost choked with sobs and said, "If I wanted to protect her, why would I tell you about this? She hurt not only your mother, but also my mother. Naturally, I will not let her go."
"You must believe that you and the child are the most important people in my heart at all times. I will not let anyone who has hurt you go. Don't treat me like this again. I will be sad, upset, and afraid."
"I can bear to lose everything except you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi could no longer hold back her tears. The emperor had never seen her cry like this before. He knew that she must be in extreme pain, so he could only try his best to comfort her.
Jiang Yi finally tired of crying. She buried herself in the emperor's arms and sobbed softly. She bit the emperor hard and almost murmured to herself: "Why do you have to be their relative?"
The emperor's heart suddenly tightened, and a feeling of pain spread throughout his limbs. He suddenly felt a lot of regrets.
He regretted that he had given Rong An too much power but failed to restrain her.
He regretted that he didn't pay attention to this matter when Rong An mentioned Jiang Rao, causing Jiang Yi to be displaced for the rest of his life.
He really lost her a lot of money!
What he was more afraid of was that Jiang Yi would develop a grudge against him because of this.
"I was wrong. Let me spend the rest of my life atonement for my sins, okay?" the emperor pleaded almost humbly.
Jiang Yi didn't answer and fell asleep.
Jiang Yiyuan was already sleepy in the late stages of her pregnancy, not to mention that she had just cried a lot.
The emperor carefully placed Jiang Yi on the couch and then issued an imperial decree.
