I was sitting down on the bed. She sat in front of me on her knees with tears in her eyes.
"That day, we came back from our honeymoon. After I had given out the gifts and remodeled the study, Fen came rushing in. She was not happy. She had pinned me down and made me swallow this pill. So, it has taken over a month for my recuperation."
Trying to control my anger towards Fen. Keeping a straight face so Na wouldn't worry. I can see she has more to say.
"The royal physician told me and your mom today that I also lost our child because of the pill she forced me to take. There is some good news. I can still have children." She continued to cry.
Getting anger, I couldn't help but hug her and cry because of that witch.
"I failed to protect you." I said with tears in my eyes.
"You can't be there all the time for me. It is no way your fault." She said..
"I should have been there during the recovery, at least." I said.
"We didn't want you to worry, and you also needed to spend time with your consorts as well." She said.
I was so furious and sad at the same time that I was fighting to hold it in, hoping she didn't notice that I was upset, but it was hard to hold back the tears of losing my child.
"As long as we are on the same page now. Please tell me what you are thinking. I know it is my fault, but I would like to know where your head is." She said.
"I want to kill her. I really want to kill her." With a murder on my mind,
"We really cannot do anything because of her father, and this is not a murder offence. Stuff like this happens all the time in the harem, so there is no need to worry. At least we can still have a child. I am also worried about the other consorts because no telling what she has done to them," she said.
"I am sorry you went through this alone." As I calmed down.
"What projects are you working on?" trying to change the subject
"Do you remember the books I bought?" she asked
"Vaguely remember why?" I asked.
"I think it is time to read them. Then you will understand the changes to our secret room." She said with an evil smile.
We headed to the secret room being excited to see the changes made. As I look around, I see just pillows and the bed. Nothing new, but the lighting has changed where the candle stands are. Noticing that there are several types of shelves that don't look right it piqued my curiosity.
I kept looking around
"why did you not go into the room? That is why I had it built." I asked.
"There was no time." She replied.
I stepped further into the room. "I do not see any changes. It still looks the same." I said.
"Cao, can you please take out the new items?" she said
Watching Cao pull out all the objects for the secret room. Pulling out scarfs from one side of the bed.
"What is this for?" I asked.
"Read the books." She said.
My mind is racing a million miles per hour, wondering I just want to find out what all this is for.
"Do you mind if we just read tonight?" I asked.
"If that is what you want to do, we can manage that." As she laughs,
