Jiang Jingyue was a little embarrassed, but she still nodded to Qi Yehan.
Madam Jiang, who was standing nearby, watched them speaking in cryptic language and asked with some confusion.
"Yueyue, what are you talking about with the Emperor? Why are you blushing so much all of a sudden?"
This was definitely something that couldn't be discussed with Madam Jiang, so Jiang Jingyue immediately shook her head.
"Mother, she didn't say anything. Do you like everything here? Is it exactly the same as before?"
With Jiang Jingyue's attention diverted, Madam Jiang instantly forgot what question she had just asked and immediately nodded.
"I love it, Mother loves it very much. Everything here is exactly the same as before. It must have been hard work for Your Majesty."
Meanwhile, at General Zhao's mansion, Zhao Qingqing had just finished fighting the two women Zhao Hu had brought back and was about to go out for a walk when she saw that the gates of the Minister's mansion next door were open and looked very lively, as if someone was preparing to stay inside.
Seeing this strange scene, Zhao Qingqing immediately stopped a servant at the entrance of the Minister's mansion and asked him a question.
"Hey, what's all this commotion about? Is there a new person moving into this mansion?"
Although the servant did not know who the person in front of him was, since she had asked, he answered truthfully.
"No! This is still where Minister Jiang and his family lived. Minister Jiang and his family were wronged, and the Emperor has already issued an edict to release them. Didn't you know that?"
Zhao Qingqing was genuinely unaware of this; she was too busy fighting with the women in the mansion to care about such matters.
"Impossible, aren't they still locked up in jail? How could they possibly be out?"
After saying this, Zhao Qingqing immediately ran back to their own residence. She wanted to hurry back and tell Zhao Hu about this matter and ask him what to do.
To her surprise, as soon as she returned to the mansion, she saw the two women who had been at odds with her standing in front of Zhao Hu with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, Zhao Hu's face looked particularly grim.
Seeing the tense atmosphere in front of her, Zhao Qingqing was unsure whether she should step forward.
"You two, why did you do this? I've treated you well, why..."
Zhao Hu was so excited that he could hardly speak and couldn't help but clutch his chest.
Seeing Zhao Hu like this, Zhao Qingqing felt that her chance to shine had come, so she immediately ran to Zhao Hu's side and helped him catch his breath.
"General, what's wrong? Did your two sisters upset you? They're so inconsiderate! I'll talk to them for you, so please don't be angry."
When Zhao Hu saw the child in Zhao Qingqing's belly, he was quite angry. He wondered if these venereal diseases would have any effect on his child.
"Qingqing, you've come at the right time. These two women are wicked; they've both contracted a disease and specifically targeted me. They're infuriating! Now I've caught it too; no wonder I've been feeling unwell down there these past few days."
Zhao Hu's words startled Zhao Qingqing, who instinctively took a step back to distance herself from him.
Zhao Qingqing's reaction instantly changed Zhao Hu's expression. He immediately reached out and grabbed Zhao Qingqing's hair, tearing out a large clump without any mercy.
"What, even you despise this general?"
Zhao Qingqing had barely answered "yes" when she immediately started shaking her head frantically.
"General, that's not what I meant. Please don't overthink it. I just couldn't stand properly for a moment, that's why I was like this."
Zhao Hu was in a very bad mood and didn't want to listen to Zhao Qingqing's explanation at all, so he immediately shouted outside.
"Guards! Take these two women away and beat them severely. Don't kill them, though. I want to torture them so they wish they were dead."
Several servants rushed in from outside, and just as they were about to attack the two women, four men in black appeared out of nowhere.
The man in black protected the two women, letting them go first while the women stayed behind to cover their retreat.
Zhao Hu's servants usually slack off, and they had no chance against these well-trained men in black.
Even though they outnumbered each other, the men in black easily kicked and pushed them away.
The two women disappeared right before Zhao Hu's eyes, and Zhao Hu could hardly believe it.
He angrily smashed everything around him, but he was still not satisfied. Seeing Zhao Qingqing standing some distance away, he immediately grabbed her and beat her with all his might.
He has completely forgotten that Zhao Qingqing has a child; he just wants to vent his anger.
"General, please don't do this. I have a baby in my belly, and it hurts so much."
A piercing scream escaped Zhao Qingqing's lips, the pain making her feel suffocated.
When Zhao Hu came to his senses, Zhao Qingqing was lying there with a bruised and swollen face, and a large pool of blood beneath her, which looked particularly horrifying.
Seeing Zhao Qingqing like this, Zhao Hu was really frightened. He had suddenly become somewhat delirious just now, otherwise he wouldn't have treated Zhao Qingqing like this.
"Qingqing, Qingqing, don't fall asleep. I'll send someone to fetch a doctor right now. Just bear with it."
Zhao Qingqing's biggest worry right now is her child.
"General, the child, you must save the child. I have no other requests, I just want the child to be alright."
Looking at the large pool of blood, Zhao Hu had a premonition that the child was unlikely to survive.
Sure enough, when the doctor arrived, his first words were that the baby had already been lost and the most important thing now was to deliver the stillborn.
When Zhao Hu looked at the fully formed baby boy, he was completely mesmerized, staring blankly at the child.
"Child, this is my child. It's all my fault, all my fault. I shouldn't have hit your Qingqing. We'll have more children in the future."
When Zhao Qingqing heard that the child was gone, she completely broke down and couldn't hear anything else.
"Zhao Hu, I hate you! May you die a horrible death! You don't think that just because you killed my child, I'll stay with you, do you?!"
I'm telling you, that's impossible. Don't even mention the fact that you aborted my child; you're also sick, the thought of it makes me nauseous.
When Zhao Hu heard Zhao Qingqing say that, he was so angry that his chest trembled and he could hardly breathe.
