To Be a Mighty Empress, Or Not to Be - C141

“Your Majesty …” She still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Ruolan.

Li Ruolan pursed her red lips, she gently caressed her lower abdomen with one hand, then looked at Shi Anran haughtily: “Could it be that you do not understand the emperor’s words, and are still not going to leave?”

The emperor exhaled lightly. “Forget it, I’ll let you off this time!”

Shi Anran had originally thought that the Emperor was also human, that he had emotions and desires, and knew how human things were. But now, she realized how wrong she was, to think that she would actually dream of having pity on such a heartless emperor. It turned out that everything she had done for him in the past wasn’t worth it. From today onwards, she would no longer have the slightest bit of sympathy towards anyone. No one would be worth it!

After Shi Anran returned to the Palace, he promptly packed her things and only after sending her and Yi Yue to the Palace entrance did she return back. She coincidentally met with Third Prince who was about to leave the Palace and return to the Palace. Why are we here? ”

Cui Yun lowered her eyes and faintly replied: “Aunt has left the palace.

“What is she doing?” After he asked, Li Mu felt that he was being too nosy. Thinking about it, he closed the curtain of the carriage without waiting for Cui Yun’s reply.

Cui Yun stood there in a daze. Before she could even react, Third Prince’s carriage had already gone far away. She didn’t think too much about it and turned around to return to the palace.

After leaving the palace, Yi Yue was worried that she did not have enough people, so she returned to the Shi Family and brought two strong guards with him. On the way, from start to finish, Shi Anran did not say a single word, nor did she have any superfluous expressions.

Yi Yue looked at her worriedly, then poured herself a cup of water and handed it over: “Miss, no matter what, your body is the most important.” She forgot that her eyes were red.

Shi Anran took the cup, and unexpectedly, the cup fell from her hands and burned the back of her hand. After the pain had struck, she suddenly regained her senses: “Yi Yue, where are we?”

“Miss, we are fast… “It’s an unmarked grave.” Yi Yue took out some scalding ointment from the carriage and carefully applied it on her.

Burial site, yes, her Liu Yue is already dead, she was tortured to death by Li Ruolan! Shi Anran’s hand that was holding the silk handkerchief was held tightly, and only after her sharp fingernails had sunk deeply into her flesh did she gradually calm down a little. She opened her mouth and said in a lukewarm manner, “Liu Yue must have been waiting for me to save her last night, but I don’t have a way …” After she finished speaking, Shi Anran’s heart clenched, feeling only pain and self-blame.

Yi Yue’s throat was dry. She was originally not good at speaking, and now, she didn’t know how to comfort this young lady who normally didn’t seem to care about anything, but in reality, was very weak in her heart. After a long while, Yi Yue finally said in a stiff voice, “Young miss must pull yourself together now, we can’t let Liu Yue die in vain.”

What you said is right, I will not let Liu Yue be the person to be killed by them, the person who hurt her, I will take revenge on behalf of Liu Yue! As he said that, the expression on Shi Anran’s face gradually became colder, and actually did not carry any warmth at all.

Yi Yue had never seen such a lady before, she pursed her lips and did not say a word, quietly accompanying Shi Anran.

Very quickly, the carriage arrived at the unmarked cemetery, and Shi Anran opened the curtain to instruct the guards behind: “You two, split up and search. You must find her!”

“Yes …” A powerful response resounded through the silent cemetery.

Shi Anran stood under an ancient tree quietly, her eyes could not help but lose focus, and she did not know where she was looking, but from time to time, she could hear the cries of the eagles eating the corpses of the dead.

“Miss, why don’t you go back to the carriage and sit down. If there’s any news, this servant will immediately inform Miss. Is that alright?”

Shi Anran shook his head and said, “Forget it, you don’t need to mind me …” As a master, she couldn’t even protect the people beside her. Wasn’t it because of her status? Whether it was Li Ruolan or the Emperor, they were all heartless people.

Yi Yue did not speak further, looking at her gloomy and silent expression, a kind of unsteady feeling surfaced in her heart, like all the little things that she had gotten along with her in the past remained in her mind, and would not go away.

“Eldest Miss, I found it!” One of the guards shouted, and brought him up from the pit. Although he had used a thick piece of cloth, blood still oozed out of the wound.

When the guards opened the bags, Yi Yue, who had seen so many killing people, found it hard to look directly at them. However, Shi Anran’s gaze remained unmoving.

Yi Yue bit her lips and said softly: “Quickly take him away!”

The guard replied, and then carried the person over. Shi Anran had not been in a state of emotions throughout this period of time, as though she was a puppet with its strings cut, and did not have any signs of life.

Unknowingly, it had started to drizzle. Unable to persuade Shi Anran, Yi Yue could only stay outside and accompany her in the rain.

The heavy rain washed over her body, making her entire body calm down. She also looked like a completely different person. Her eyes were filled with a strange light.

In a nearby forest, Li Mu sat upright on horseback, his eyes constantly focused on the woman who had acted foolishly in the rain. He knew that Shi Anran would come here.

“Miss, the rain is too heavy. Let’s go back!” Yi Yue could not help but say, she was fine, but the young miss’s body was not fully recovered yet.

Shi Anran closed her eyes, enjoying the washing away of the heavy rain. She actually felt such excitement, as though she had always been obedient and didn’t dare to do anything. Shi Anran’s mind flashed with the scenes of when she was together with Liu Yue and Xiu Er back then. They were innocent people, but the result was that they died because of him.

Yi Yue was unable to force her, so she could only turn around and ran back to the horse carriage to retrieve her umbrella. Right at that moment, Shi Anran’s tottering body suddenly fell down.

“Miss, Miss …” Yi Yue did not care how heavy the rain was and immediately turned back.

Li Mu, who was about to leave, saw this scene, his face turned cold. He immediately ordered the carriage driver to turn around and head forward, then he walked over to Shi Anran with large strides. He did not care about the fact that there were other people by his side, and took off his cape to tie it up with her, hugging her by the waist and reproaching her in a low voice: “Why are you so disobedient?” Life is rough all the way, inevitably have to sacrifice some things, in order to achieve the goal can only be like this. It was good to let her understand this earlier.

After Li Mu carried her onto the carriage, Yi Yue helped her change into a clean set of clothes. She looked at Third Prince who was outside in the rain and extended her head out: “Third Prince, it’s done.”

When she opened the curtain, Shi Anran was already awake. She looked at everyone with a very unfamiliar gaze, and Li Mu said indifferently: “You shouldn’t be here today.”
