Rebirth of the Great Favor

That was the last time he released inside her.

The spacious and empty, big palace hall echoed with her subtle moan and his repressed low gasp.

The turbid white exploded in Shen Qi’s body and his uploaded dragon root weakened but he still pressed Shen Qi’s waist maliciously, pushing a few more times.

Then he got up and left, leaving her alone.

It wasn’t until that day when she put on the red wedding dress in place of Su Lianxue and married to the northern country.

On that day, her fine, black hair that had been entangling in Shen Zhonghua’s fingertips was all coiled up and the golden curtain tassels on her forehead covered her red and splendid makeup facial features perfectly just like looking at flowers in the house.

That day it seemed that Shen Zhonghua saw Shen Qi apply makeup, draw her eyebrows, and apply deep red lipstick for the first time.

Shen Qi was married in place of Su Lianxue and the wedding dress on her body was also tailored for Su Lianxue. Su Lianxue had a slender figure so all the clothes Shen Qi wore were all slightly oversized. Shen Zhonghua glimpsed Shen Qi’s delicate, long and narrow collarbone. For the first time, he noticed Shen Qi was thinner than he thought.

But it was such a thin body that was once used against ten enemies and used her flesh as a shield to block him from those deadly dark blades.

Shen Qi’s eyes drooped, dark and calm. Shen Zhonghua looked at her and the color of his pupils gradually deepened.

Now Su Lianxue had changed her identity. It was nominally from the young miss of the general to the second daughter of the general that was raised in the boudoir but not known by anyone. Also, not long ago, she was bestowed the title of Princess Chunjia by Shen Zhonghua.

Su Lianxue stood beside Shen Zhonghua, holding a jar of wine and whispered softly to Shen Zhonghua: “Older brother Zhonghua, the time is not early, bestow the wine to big sister to practice it.”

This generation of practicing wine finally really became wine practicing.

“What marriages! What peace between two countries! Zhen doesn’t need those things!” Not long after Shen Qi left, Shen Zhonghua drank alone in the palace hall. He suddenly became furious: “Zhen’s land, how come he needed a woman to defend!”

Shen Zhonghua suddenly realized, but he realized too late, and leaving to chase her was also too late.

* * * *

When Shen Zhonghua spurred the horse to full speed and led everyone to chase after her, Shen Qi’s small face was dirty and her hair was messy. She stood alone on the edge of the mountain cliff as if about to fall at any time.

Behind her, the savage sun was bloody and the free swirling sand blown by the wind.

Her original delicate and complicated hair was scattered and blown by the wind. The bright, red, wedding dress was like blood and the bloody sword from her hand stung Shen Zhonghu’s eyes.

“Shen Qi.” Shen Zhonghua got down off the horse and walked toward her alone but Shen Qi held the sword firmly and stepped back. She was about to fall off the cliff.

Shen Zhonghua frowned and shouted in a cold voice: “Come over here!”

If Shen Zhonghua knew his heart, he would surely know that he was worried about her. His heart was hurting, hurting for her sustained injured body and hurting for her helpless eyes.

Shen Qi didn’t move.

Speaking of which, this was the only time she had disobeyed his orders.

Shen Zhonghua took a step toward Shen Qi. Shen Qi wasn’t stepping back so he took another step. Until Shen Zhonghua was convinced that Shen Qi wouldn’t move nor jump off the cliff, he strode toward Shen Qi with a striding meteor.

His heart was tormented, anxious, and equally frightened.

“Zhen won’t allow you to go.” He walked up to her and hugged her in his arms. His movements were not gentle.

Shen Qi let him hold her. There was no surprise nor joy on her small face, but just stuck close to the throbbing heart of Shen Zhonghua and told him: “Your Majesty, this slave can’t go back.”

In the end, Shen Qi still regarded Shen Zhonghua as her master. Like all times, she had never exceeded half-point except for her emotional uncontrollability.

At last, her Shen Zhonghua finally held her tightly. She was finally close to the once out of reach chest and still hadn’t forgotten her identity when she was close to his heart.

Her Shen Qi was the slave of Shen Zhonghua.

“Zhen will take you back.” Shen Zhonghua’s tone became anxious. His hands clenched tightly against Shen Qi’s thin shoulders, thinking that she was really too thin. Going back he would have her eat a few more bowls of rice and only by eating meat would it support this body and bone together.

“Can’t go back......” Shen Qi repeated, but her voice wasn’t as calm as it was before. Trembling and revealing her fear and helplessness as she said: “There’s nothing...... I have nothing......”

Shen Qi trembled in Shen Zhonghua’s arms. Shen Zhonghua’s heart twisted fiercely with pain. He merely blurted out using his usual strong and domineering tone, growling at her: “What do you want, Zhen will give you exactly!”

Hearing that from Shen Zhonghua, Shen Qi calmed down and stopped trembling.

Shen Zhonghua heard Shen Qi laugh softly in his ear and said: “This slave has been serving Your Majesty for fifteen years, but today is the first time to know that Your Majesty is also fond of joking.”

Shen Qi wanted a sincere heart.

Want him to love her only.

Want a child.

Want a home that belongs to her.

Want a simple life.

Shen Qi laughed again. She knew she wanted too much. It was no wonder she couldn’t even protect the only child in her belly that belonged to her.

That cup of wine......

The cup of bitter wine that entered her throat drowned out Shen Qi’s heart and the last spark of light.

Shen Qi had cramps in her abdomen, but more painful than the abdomen was her heart.

She originally thought her heart was heavily damaged and it would not hurt again.

Shen Qi reached out as if embracing the man in front of her. She had always wanted to hug him. Now she didn’t want to but she did.

Shen Qi asked Shen Zhonghua: “Your Majesty, if this slave really wants something, you will give it to this slave?”

Shen Zhonghua held her tight and said: “A monarch has no jokes.”

“Slave hopes...... If there is a next life...... this slave never meets Your Majesty again......” Shen Qi said again: “If there is a next life...... if there is….. after all...... this slave’s hands were covered with blood for Your Majesty...... That bloody smell...... so far it can’t be washed away......”

When finished speaking, Shen Qi’s hand behind Shen Zhonghua raised the sword that she had been holding tightly. When everyone in the distance thought that she was going to kill the monarch, she quickly and ruthlessly slit her own throat like jade. (tenderflower: how…?)

I watched this part where Xiao Feng slit her own throat and I thought of Shen Qi. Shen Qi should be sliting her throat like this? QAQ I cried a lot!

That feel when you watched the person you loved died in front of you is a sin!!!! QAQ Can't get rid of it! You will always remember it~

This screenshot is from Goodbye My Princess. If anyone is interested, go watch it! I haven't watched it but saw some clips lol. I don't like it when FL died at the end. Not my cup of tea~
