Bai Zhirou could never have imagined that the token of love between her and Shen Zhao would be a golden horsewhip.
This was given to her by Shen Zhao, and she gave him a big gift in return that night.
She was only wearing a pink gauze dress, supporting her chin with her hands and winking at Shen Zhao.
Chen Zhao was a young man full of vigor and had just gotten married, so naturally he couldn't stand Bai Zhirou dressed like this.
He turned around and washed it with cold water several times before calming down.
Bai Zhirou didn't care about his appearance. From then on, she would wear this gauze dress whenever she wanted to tease him.
Chen Zhao secretly vowed to avenge the loss of this piece of clothing!
In the eighth month of Bai Zhirou and Chen Zhao's marriage, news came from the Rongjun Prince's Mansion that Xia Yuning had given birth to a son, and Xia Yifeng tried his best to save the child.
Xia Yuning, Prince Rong, and Princess Rong all wanted to kill the innocent child, but he defied everyone and took the child out.
The child is innocent, and the hatred between Xia Yuning and her should not be taken out on a child who knows nothing.
Xia Yifeng knelt on the ground with red eyes and begged Bai Zhirou to adopt the child. He would take Xia Yuning away and never return to the capital!
Bai Zhirou thought for a long time and then agreed. She and Shen Zhao set off for Jiangnan and handed the child over to be raised by Bai's father and mother.
Although the couple was estranged from their biological daughter, they liked their grandson as soon as they saw him.
It's that kind of close blood relationship.
Bai Zhirou really couldn't bear to see the couple have a grudge about Xia Yuning, so she kept the child.
The couple naturally loved each other very much.
Xia Yifeng also did what he said. After Xia Yuning finished her confinement, he took her away and never came back!
The carriage was running fast on the road. It was early summer again. All the flowers had withered and the whole place was green.
The gate of the capital city became smaller and smaller in the field of vision until it became a small black dot and disappeared from view.
Xia Yuning knew that she was getting further and further away from that kind of rich life and could never go back!
Her heart was filled with infinite bitterness and unwillingness.
Xia Yifeng said he would take her to a place where no one knew them, start over, and live together as husband and wife.
She agreed, but changed her mind halfway through.
There was no one around, so the two stopped to rest.
Xia Yuning went to the bathroom and didn't come back for a long time, so Xia Yifeng started to get anxious.
When I looked over, I found a person standing on the edge of a cliff, with his hair flying in the wind below.
She was so thin that she looked like she could be blown away by a gust of wind, and she stood there swaying.
"Ning'er, come back! It's too dangerous!" Xia Yifeng was so scared that his legs were shaking and his face turned pale.
Xia Yuning just turned around and didn't come back. Her face was still pale, with tears in the corners of her eyes. The tears rolled down in strings, wetting her clothes.
"My entire life is ruined. I'm still having trouble living my life again. Why is that? Is it wrong for me to love wealth and fame?"
"It's all Bai Zhirou's fault! She deserved to die! I'm the one who should be the princess! And the Shen family, they should have offended the emperor and been exiled! How can they live such a rich life!"
"I won't accept this! I won't accept this even if I die!"
Xia Yuning smiled miserably and took a step back.
The small stone fell off the cliff, making a frightening sound, and Xia Yifeng's heart rose to his throat.
"Ning'er, be obedient. There is a cliff behind us. You will die if you fall down. Come back quickly!" Xia Yifeng's voice trembled as he began to think about how to coax Xia Yuning back.
But Xia Yuning did not give him this opportunity. She pulled up an ugly smile at the corner of her lips, pinched the corner of her clothes with both hands, and then leaned back without hesitation, and fell into the vast Cangshan Mountains.
"Ning'er!" Xia Yifeng was so scared that he dragged his limp legs and lay on the edge of the cliff to watch.
But there were only cliffs below, and they were completely covered by white fog, so I couldn't see anything clearly.
Xia Yuning's jump was very dangerous, but Xia Yifeng ran around the mountain road like a madman and came to the bottom of the cliff. After searching for three days and three nights, he finally found Xia Yuning, who was swollen and bloated, beside the stream.
When the news of Xia Yuning's death reached the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, Bai Zhirou had just returned home. She was silent for a moment, and a strange feeling arose in her heart.
Seeing that she was silent, Shen Zhao helped her sit down on a chair beside her and poured her a bowl of hot tea.
It is inconvenient for pregnant women to attend funerals, but Bai Zhirou went anyway.
At the funeral, Prince Rong had a gloomy face and a blue-gray stubble on his chin, which showed that he had not slept well.
Concubine Li, who was standing by, was holding her big belly and urging the maid to burn paper money, with a bad look on her face.
At this moment, even the paralyzed Princess Rong was carried out and placed beside her. Looking at the brand new wooden coffin, her eyes were blurred with tears.
This wooden coffin was originally prepared for her, but unexpectedly, it was used by Xia Yuning first.
The moment she saw Xia Yuning lying inside, all grudges were wiped out, and even the mother-daughter relationship was gone with the wind.
She quickly became thinner, but she still wanted to take a piece of yellow paper from the basket and throw it into the brazier.
The flames wrapped around the yellow paper and swallowed it up in an instant. The flames shot up high, burning Princess Rong's forehead until it was burning hot.
The prince also came and offered incense to Xia Yuning.
The dead are great, and the past is gone with the wind.
There were groups of people gathered in the yard. Some of them knew that the prince was here and did not forget to come over to curry favor with him, making the whole yard a mess.
The prince was unable to bear the worry and quickly said goodbye and returned to the palace.
Not long after Xia Yuning's death, Bai's father and mother also received the news. They built a cenotaph for her, at least to give her some thought.
Two months later, Bai Zhirou gave birth to a baby boy safely and named him Shen Moci. Everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion was filled with joy, and Shen Zhao kept calling him his sweetheart, which made Bai Zhirou so disgusted that she didn't want to look at him for even a second.
