In the middle of the night, he extinguished the candle and tenderly tucked me in.

　　In the silent darkness, the faint sobbing made the person in the darkness panic.

　　He uncovered the blanket and looked at me curled up inside, crying uncontrollably.

　　I also looked at him, tears streaming down my face.

　　Whatever barrier had existed between us disappeared silently.

　　He embraced me tightly, a mixture of joy and anger in his voice, saying, "It's alright, it's alright..." I cried and asked him, "Why is it me? Why is it still me? Clearly, I have followed her instructions, so why couldn't I save the child? Am I not obedient enough? Am I not magnanimous enough?" "No, it's not your fault.

　　You have done nothing wrong.

　　You should be like this now, this is the real you," he replied.

　　I continued to cry like that, not knowing when I fell asleep.

　　When I woke up the next day, I was still tightly held in someone's arms.

　　Before leaving, the Emperor said, "I will make decisions for you." On that same day, I was demoted to a concubine and Noble Consort, with the crime of great disrespect, and news of my confinement for two years spread.

　　Yes, it was just two years, that's all.

　　Why not use the charge of plotting against the crown prince? Because of the great victory on the border.

　　Unfortunately, it was not a great victory on our border, but on the border of the Qianyue Kingdom, the queenland of the noble concubine.

　　The sudden rise of the neighboring country was fierce, and the loss of one city allowed for easy attacking and defending, catching Great Sheng off guard.

　　Countless soldiers were buried in a foreign land, and countless Great Sheng men joined the army resolutely.

　　I heard that among this group, there was a young general.

　　Of course, I only heard about it.

　　After all, I am trapped behind these red walls, and news is always not well-informed.

　　Pei Qi occasionally gets angry, thinking that the defeat is the soldiers' incompetence.

　　Why did the treasury allocate so much money, yet we still lost? If we truly had the strength, how could we retreat steadily because of one city? Fortunately, at this time, the noble concubine, ah no, now she should be called the Ning concubine.

　　The poems and songs that the Ning concubine had someone deliver were seen, which angered the emperor again.

　　Many palace attendants who helped were punished, and a death order was issued, forbidding anyone to mention her name again.

　　Fortunately, although this year was not peaceful, there was also good news.

　　The empress consort is pregnant.

　　And successfully gave birth to a dragon son.

　　This is His Majesty's legitimate first son, the future heir.

　　Even if Pei Qi has no feelings for the empress consort, his brows and eyes are full of smiles, granting amnesty throughout the country, looking grand.

　　I am also happy, looking at that tender little baby, and smiling, saying, "It's really good."
