The sound of Hua Rong's screams soon filled the room.
Though faint, the screams clearly indicated she had been given the soft bone powder.
Yet, even in their weakness, the screams conveyed the agony and despair she was enduring.
Nangong Shuya, walking ahead, stopped in her tracks, not daring to approach.
Feng Qihe had already heard the screams, and his heart was filled with an indescribable turmoil.
"Is she... truly the biological mother of the Fourth Prince?"
He had brought her back, but the order came from the Empress Dowager. Therefore, although Feng Qihe knew some things about Hua Rong, he was still uncertain.
Recalling Feng Ye Xuan's icy aura and his proud demeanor, and then imagining his birth mother suffering unspeakable humiliation within, Feng Qihe felt a sense of heaviness in his heart.
The Emperor had sent a few young eunuchs inside... It was truly too much.
No woman could endure such humiliation and would rather die!
"Back then, did Father Emperor also..."
"Yes!" Nangong Shuya closed her eyes, adjusted her breathing, and then opened them to look at him.
"Your Father Emperor is simply a..."
But Nangong Shuya did not want to say the rest.
After a pause, she said, "However, his terrible methods were basically all used on Consort Rong."
"He loved Consort Rong so much that he spent half of his time each month in Consort Rong's courtyard."
"But he..."
As the Empress, she could not possibly be unaware of those romantic affairs.
Even speaking of them was shameful.
Consort Rong, however, had experienced them firsthand, and her survival was already admirable.
"Mother Empress, do you... pity her?" Feng Qihe was not exactly a good person.
But Hua Rong's son was Feng Ye Xuan!
Thinking that he had brought Hua Rong back, leading the Emperor to commit such terrible acts against her, and then recalling the coldness in Feng Ye Xuan's eyes, although he wanted to dismiss it, he still felt a prickle of fear.
If Feng Ye Xuan were to find out about all this, he would go mad and kill everyone!
"Pity or no pity, what difference does it make? She obstructed our great cause and deserves no sympathy."
Nangong Shuya claimed not to pity her, but she still took a deep breath, allowing her frantic heartbeat to gradually calm down.
She did not pity her, but... she was truly too pitiful.
"It is only now that I understand why Consort Rong was able to survive so tenaciously back then."
In those days, Feng Bufan would often take young eunuchs to torment Consort Rong.
Such humiliation was unbearable for any woman.
She had even considered that if such methods were used on her, she would either kill Feng Bufan or, rather, die!
"She could not die because Feng Ye Xuan was the son of Prince Ye, and she had to watch her son grow up, waiting until her son was strong enough to tell him who his father's killer truly was."
"Otherwise, her son would forever mistake the enemy for his father and respect his enemy as his own kin!"
This was Hua Rong's most pitiable and tragic fate.
For her son, she was not even allowed to die.
"Her'er, Feng Ye Xuan is your enemy. Do not pity him, for you are not qualified to pity him."
Nangong Shuya looked at her son, her voice gradually deepening:
"Moreover, you personally brought Hua Rong back. For this alone, Feng Ye Xuan will not let you go."
"If you do not kill him, sooner or later, he will kill you!"
"Her'er, now is your best opportunity to earn merit in front of Father Emperor. Go and tell your Father Emperor your plan, and let your Father Emperor know that you are the son he should favor the most!"
