Ying Yue was scared out of her wits.
Alas, at such a time, one already in dire straits shouldn't court further trouble, she thought, and promptly hastened to offer advice.
"Your Ladyship, you can't keep dwelling on these thoughts!"
"The Emperor is sentimental; otherwise, he wouldn't have..."
The moment Noble Concubine Shih heard this, she bristled with anger.
"Sentimental? If the Emperor were truly sentimental, how could he not visit me for so long, after all this time! Has his anger still not subsided?"
Having said that, she clutched her stomach again. "Could he still be holding a grudge against me over the child's matter? Yet, have I not suffered as well?"
After saying this, her eyes reddened again. "If my child were still here, things wouldn't have come to this..."
Ying Yue was also very upset. "Your Ladyship, don't be sad. You are still young!"
Noble Concubine Shih shook her head. "Young? HEH, what's the use if the Emperor doesn't visit!"
