Chapter 437: Even She Could Feel How Dirty She Was

Lu Hetian left the room. He turned back to look at the young girl standing inside. A complex look flashed in his deep eyes.

Would Lihua blame him for letting Weiwei marry into the Palace?

A shadow of deep sorrow appeared on his face. He sighed silently and walked away.

Lu Liangweis breathing finally relaxed after watching him leave the courtyard. She fell limp into the chair.

When she saw the food basket on the table, she suddenly realized why her father had secretly arranged for archers after he had left. It was because the food basket had betrayed them.

She felt slightly ashamed at the thought of her lying to her father that she wanted to sleep when he knew early on that she was lying.

When Chu Jiu entered the room, she was lying on the table.

Chu Jiu hesitated before informing, Miss, if theres nothing else, I am planning to go to Xiawu Town now.

This reminded Lu Liangwei of the matter concerning Xiawu Town. She immediately sat upright. Lets put this matter aside for now. His Majesty has sent his people to investigate this.

Chu Jiu was taken aback. She immediately thought of something and quickly explained, It wasnt me who told His Majesty.

This did not bother Lu Liangwei as she pacified Chu Jiu. Theres no need to feel anxious. I know. His Majestys covert guards were investigating this. They must have spotted you investigating as well, and reported it to him.

Chu Jiu felt relieved.

His Majesty had sent her to be with Second Miss, which meant that she would obey Second Miss whole-heartedly without compromising her loyalty.

Xiawu Town.

Chen Qiyu had just finished servicing a man. She fell limp onto the bed, completely exhausted. A teardrop fell from the corner of her eye.

Right then, the tightly closed room door was pushed open. Her maidservant ignored the foul smell in the room and rushed in to help Chen Qiyu up.

Miss, how are you feeling? The maidservant anxiously clawed at a blanket from the side to cover up her Miss body.

Chen Qiyu opened her eyes. She noticed the anxious look on her maidservants face and smiled pitifully. Meier, I dont think I can hold on any longer

Meier panicked when she heard this. She placed her hand on Chen Qiyus tummy and said pointedly, Youve already held on for so long. For his sake, you need to continue holding on. We will definitely find a way to leave this place.

Chen Qiyu shook her head and laughed bitterly. Theres no escape for us. We wont be able to leave. I know most of those people. Theyre officials of the imperial court and some of them do recognize me. Yet, it doesnt bother them at all that Im the concubine of the Crown Prince, and they arent even afraid of me finding out who they are. They know very well that we cant leave, which is why theyre so brazen.

Meiers face turned grim when she heard this, but she continued, Even so, we cant give up so easily. As long as we stay alive, we would be able to leave this place.

Chen Qiyu shook her head. It doesnt matter even if we can leave, my honor has been compromised and I am no longer pure

At the thought of what she had gone through the last few days, even she could feel how dirty she was.

Even if she were able to leave this place, she could never return to the Eastern Palace. She would only be despised.

Her determination from the last few days was now shaken.

Seeing how disheartened she was, Meier felt afraid but did not dare to reveal her fear. Instead, she encouraged, Youll need to hold on for his sake. As long as youre okay, you will have a good life in the future.

If Miss was able to give birth to an heir smoothly, it would bring her great merit. This was the Crown Princes first child, and it would make a lot of difference.

Chen Qiyu understood Meiers thoughts.

She shared the same thoughts, and it was those thoughts that helped her to hold on to hope when she was first brought here.

No matter how those people tortured or abused her, she clenched her teeth and stayed determined to hold on, but
