Chapter 402: The Root of the Nightmare

Rong Jingqiu's eyes were a little hollow. She didn't know how to explain what happened in her previous life, as well as the worries and fears deep in her heart. In the end, she could only turn into one sentence, "I'm really fine. Doctor Zhen also said that our children are very good, you don't have to worry. People affected by the flood are still waiting for you to rescue them. I will be fine, I promise."

She didn't want to hold Zhao Yu back. Now the prince was restrained by General Xiao and had no intention of providing disaster relief. The fourth prince was a person who was seeking fame and was devoted to fighting for the throne. Now he was busy negotiating with the Royal Court of Mobei. After all, Prince Ertai was still in his hands, so he naturally hoped that he could get more benefits, and his mind was not on people's livelihood at all.

The emperor's suspicion and taboo made most other princes choose the path of mediocrity, just like the eighth prince. Anyway, he just doesn't work hard and wants to be a prince of peace to enjoy wealth. This was the path that Rong Jingqiu wanted Zhao Yu to choose, but now her mentality has changed. She is very glad that Zhao Yu is not such a mediocre person.

Even though Zhao Yu received her guarantee, he still couldn't let it go. It was not until this moment that he realized that Rong Jingqiu had a deep psychological shadow about pregnancy, but where did this shadow come from? He was really clueless. "You have lost a lot of weight. How can I believe the guarantee you gave?" He paused, "Instead of losing you in the future, I will just guard you like this, okay?"

When Rong Jingqiu heard this, her eyes suddenly wet, and indescribable sadness filled her heart. In her previous life, she complained that Zhao Yu was exhausted and died. In this life, he said that he wanted nothing and just wanted to guard her... Thinking of the various actions he had done to escape from him since he was reborn, she was actually the selfish one. She never tried to believe his feelings for her.

She suddenly hugged him tightly with excitement, "Don't worry, I'll get better, I swear."

Zhao Yu still looked at her deeply and said nothing, but he did not leave the house anymore, but kept by her side and took care of her carefully.

Rong Jingqiu was also as she said. She was working hard to get better day by day. She told herself that this life was not the previous life and that nightmare would not come.

But nightmare is a nightmare, not controlled by human will. On that night, Rong Jingqiu dreamed of the old woman's voice again, "Princess, your princess is gone as soon as she was born, and the Imperial Doctor said it was a fetal pregnancy..."

"No, I don't believe it..."

Then a newborn baby boy whose body was full of purple and had no breath was sent to her hands, and the old woman's voice was still the same, "Princess, don't be sad, your highness will go uneasy, look..."

"No, this is not my child, not mine..."

She refused to admit that the child was hers, she clearly, Mingming...

"Princess, this is obviously your highness. We can't make mistakes when we look at it with so many eyes. I know you are sad, but this is the fact. I can only say... Princess, your land is not good and you can't raise good crops..."

"Stop, stop..." She looked down at the dead baby who was thrown aside by her. How could this be her child? She was pregnant for ten months and the child was always in her belly. She had obviously had fetal movements before, so how could she still have a baby?

"Princess, don't scare me, come here, the princess is crazy about gaining and losing her heart... She doesn't even recognize the newborn little prince..."

"That's not my child-"

With this roar, Rong Jingqiu suddenly woke up from the nightmare. She sat on the bed with a quilt and gasped, even if it was a dream, her whole heart was still tightly clutching.

The dead baby was wandering in her dreams. Even after a lifetime, she did not admit that it was her child. She remembered it very clearly. She fainted and fell asleep with confidence when she heard the child's crying. The child could cry even though he could cry, how could he be a dead baby as soon as he was born?

Zhao Yu opened his eyes almost at the same time. Not to mention that Rong Jingqiu was not sleeping peacefully, he also had insomnia all night. He had to look at her from time to time. Only when he saw her fall asleep could he sniff with confidence. As long as she moved, he would wake up, not to mention that she was talking in her sleep excitedly.

At this moment, he hugged her gently, then patted her back to comfort her emotions, muttering, "Dreams are the opposite, don't be afraid, I'm still there..."

Rong Jingqiu slowly turned around and looked at him, her eyes very strange.

She never admitted that the dead baby in her previous life was the child she gave birth to, but no one stood on her side. Even Zhao Yu felt that she was sad and overly unable to accept reality. At that time, he also guarded her all day and night like this.

She said she wanted to send someone to find the child, so he sent someone out, but the final result was repeatedly disappointing. When the dead baby was buried, it was raining heavily and she refused to attend. She firmly believed that her child was still alive.

But everyone looked at her with strange eyes, as if something was wrong with her mind.

They spent that difficult time, from the time they conceived the child until they gave birth, they had no peace for a moment, and it almost exhausted all their energy.

Until later, even she felt that hearing the baby's crying that day was an hallucination, and she no longer clamored to find the child. Seeing her gradually coming out of the pain of losing her son, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Since then, he never mentioned having another child, and she also avoided this topic.

They returned to their original mode of getting along, and she was still addicted to eating, drinking, and having fun, as if she could gain peace in her heart.

Later, she was sent away by Zhao Yu until she died. She was glad that the child was really gone, at least she didn't have to suffer with her.

Zhao Yu had never seen Rong Jingqiu's unfamiliar eyes before, which made his mind tremble, "What's wrong?"

These three words shook back to her consciousness. She turned to look at the somewhat strange and familiar tent. The cow head was silent and said, "Where is Madam Dou?"

Zhao Yu's eyebrows were twisted into knots. What should I do when I mentioned her?

"You forgot. You said you wanted her to retire in advance without having to serve her in the mansion. She has never been in the mansion."

Rong Jingqiu suddenly realized that yes, she was reborn, and even kept Madam Dou, the annoying woman, away from her life. In addition to seeing her newlyweds for several days, Zhao Yu, the wet nurse, had been kicked out of the house by her, and she also had her shameless daughter Dou Qi.

At this time, Zhao Yu reached out to hold her chin and asked her to look up at him, "You can't tell me what kind of dreams you have?"

When Rong Jingqiu saw his dark eyes reflecting her figure, she couldn't help but feel shocked. She was reborn and she didn't intend to tell anyone that she was completely reborn. After all, human nature cannot stand the test, and she doesn't want to be seen as a monster. People will subconsciously feel fear of unknown things.

If a close relative and a distant couple, you should know what to say and what not to say.

However, it was too tormenting for a person to carry such memories. She took several breaths and then said carefully, "I... dreamed that the child was gone as soon as he was born, and then someone told me that the child... was still in the womb..."

"All nonsense!" Zhao Yu scolded angrily before he finished listening, "Who said it? He dared to curse the descendants of the royal family. Tell me, I will chop his head..."

Rong Jingqiu hurriedly hugged his arm and said anxiously, "It's said it's a dream. Look at you, you're so angry, our child..." When she was about to say something, she suddenly felt a heavy kick in her abdomen, and she was stunned.

Seeing that she suddenly lost her reaction, Zhao Yu was still worried about finding someone to vent his anger? He hurriedly said, "What's wrong?"

"Child...he..."

Zhao Yu was immediately scared. There would be no real accident, right? He hurriedly got out of bed, "I'll go and have someone invite Doctor Zhen to come here, don't worry..."

"No," Rong Jingqiu hurriedly grabbed his hand and placed it on his raised abdomen, "Listen."

At first, Zhao Yu felt nothing. He was about to withdraw his hand and asked someone to invite Doctor Zhen overnight, but he felt the fetus in Rong Jingqiu's abdomen kicked. He suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Rong Jingqiu, who was also happy. This was the child moving. He was telling them in this way that he was very healthy.

"The child is moving..." He licked his dry lips and said.

Rong Jingqiu hugged Zhao Yu tightly, and the joy in her heart was indescribable. No imperial physician's pulse was taken as fast as the fetus kicked. The fetal movement came too late, which made her suspicious for a long time.

Zhao Yu also hugged Rong Jingqiu excitedly. On this early summer night, he even felt Rong Jingqiu's tears soaking his underwear. Not to mention Rong Jingqiu, even he wanted to cry.

After changing her clothes and laying on the bed, Rong Jingqiu lay sideways in Zhao Yu's arms. The fetal movement began to become more frequent. Her hands were pressed on her abdomen. Every time the child moved, her heart trembled.

It was not until dawn that the child did not move much, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were sharp. Her feelings were not wrong. She really heard the cry of the child during her childbirth in her previous life. That was not a dead baby.

Her child has been replaced, and this must be the case. She should trust a mother's intuition.

Madam Dou, she couldn't help gritting her teeth when she woke up these three words. In her previous life, she owed her an explanation. If she could wear it back to her previous life, she would definitely torture the hateful woman and ask her about the whereabouts of her child.

When she thought that the little baby might have suffered in a place she didn't know, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and even had the intention of killing people.

"What are you thinking?" Zhao Yu gently stroked her hair.

"I want to kill someone." Rong Jingqiu said bluntly.

Zhao Yu's hand paused, and then said calmly, "Who do you want to kill? Leave it to me, don't dirty your hand."

Rong Jingqiu raised her eyes and looked straight into his eyes, "Madam Dou."

Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes. This answer surprised him. He remembered that Madam Dou and his wife had only had a conflict that time. Later, under his order, Madam Dou never appeared again.

"Okay." No matter how excessive this request was, he would agree to her.

When Rong Jingqiu heard this, she was stunned for a long time. She was so kind in her previous life that she should have used the eighteen tortures on Madam Dou. Her children would definitely be found. After all, she didn't believe that there was no mouth that could not be pried in the world.

"I'm kidding." After a while, she smiled again.

Zhao Yu didn't laugh. He felt that she was not joking. He didn't understand what his wife's temperament was? Madam Dou must have done something wrong.

So the next day, he called Feng Debao and ordered him to send someone to monitor Madam Dou's every move.

Feng Debao was stunned for a moment, why did he pull Madam Dou in? Then he knelt on the ground as if he woke up and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, Madam Dou has found an old slave. I hope that Madam Dou will help her speak a few good words in front of her master and ask her to come back to serve her. The old slave did not dare to agree. He just thought about his previous colleagues, so he did not say anything..."

Zhao Yu didn't expect that there would be another incident, so he frowned and asked, "Why haven't you heard from me?"

"The old lady didn't dare to say it, for fear that the princess would be unhappy. Anyway, the old lady didn't respond to her request..." Feng Debao quickly explained, and he was brave enough to bring Madam Dou back to the princess's mansion. The old lady was very thoughtful. Rong Jingqiu was in pregnancy again, so who knew what she wanted to do?

"Since she has asked you, she will definitely ask others for help. This way, you will leave the rest of your work to others. You have to keep a close eye on this person." Zhao Yu said coldly.

Judging from common sense, there is no problem with Madam Dou's actions. She is his wet nurse, and it is normal for her to return to the mansion to serve. What's more, she also has an unreasonable daughter Dou Qi clamoring. However, Rong Jingqiu is not an unreasonable person, so there must be something else in between.

Seeing that his master did not doubt him, Feng Debao breathed a sigh of relief and immediately knelt down and took the order.

A part of the knot in his heart was opened, and Rong Jingqiu's spirit was visibly improved. Many people came to visit her, but she had not met anyone except a few relatives and friends. However, an uninvited guest came this day, and she still had to see her.

Seeing Rong Jingqiu coming out to greet him with a big belly, Shufei, who got out of the carriage, hurriedly stepped forward and pressed Rong Jingqiu who was about to salute, "You are still big belly, why should we be so polite?"

"I didn't expect that Mother Shu would come here. I'm sorry that I was not able to meet you. I'm guilty, sin..." Rong Jingqiu said a few words of modestness, but just lowered her eyes slightly. Concubine Shu's energy was much greater than she thought. Her behavior must have been approved by the emperor, and it would be not easy to hide it from Xia Wei.

Concubine Shu took Rong Jingqiu's hand and walked to the inner courtyard. She walked on the shaded corridor. She said with a worried look on her face, "I heard that you have been frequently circulating on the imperial physician's pulse. I couldn't let go of my heart all day long, so I asked Your Majesty to give me a grace to let me leave the palace to visit you. After all, I have to see it with my own eyes, so I can't calm down..."

"It was my fault to make Mother Shu worry about it..." Rong Jingqiu also quickly expressed his opinion, whether it is right or wrong, it is absolutely true that this is true.

When Shufei heard this, she looked at her, "Why are you polite to me, your child? Yu'er grew up because she was growing up, no different from my biological son. You are the same as my daughter-in-law. Is our family still going to speak two families?"
