A grand drama was quietly brewing.
At dawn, a ray of sunlight shone on the earth. The once silent land gradually became populated. The sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking filled the air as people started their day's work.
Suddenly, a man let out a shout. He ran from one end of the street to the other, muttering non - stop, "It's bad! Demons are going to harm us. Everyone be careful!"
"Bad news!" The shouts echoed one after another, making everyone feel uneasy.
An old woman frowned and asked, "Hey, what are you talking about? Don't spread false information here, okay?"
"Look! This was found in a fish's belly. I went fishing today and caught quite a few. Especially this one, it's so big. It's clearly the king of the fish. I was about to cut it up and cook it nicely, but unexpectedly, I found this in its belly."
The man took out a small cloth strip from his hand with a lingering fear. Taking a closer look, there was a sentence written on it.
If Su Qingwen is not eliminated, the world will never know peace.
"Oh my god, it's really so." The old woman widened her eyes. She glanced at him in horror, and her face turned extremely pale.
"This Su Qingwen is really a reincarnated demon. What should we do now? Let's go and plead with the emperor to order her execution. How can such a person be left in the palace?" The man clapped his hands and shouted sternly.
Hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement.
"That's right. We can't let this demon harm us. Let's stage an uprising right now and force the emperor to kill this woman!" In an instant, everyone's enthusiasm was ignited, and they all headed towards the palace.
The uprising took place right in the capital. Although many soldiers were dispatched to suppress it, it was of no use. Those people seemed to have all their anger aroused and refused to stop. They just kept shouting non - stop.
Finally, the situation got out of control. Seeing that those people were about to break into the palace, Hua Yueye was extremely angry. He immediately ordered the imperial guards to guard the gate of Su Qingwen's palace tightly. Not even a fly was allowed to get in.
"What's that noise outside?" Su Qingwen woke up from her sleep. She felt that it was extremely noisy outside. Frowning in annoyance, she asked.
"It's nothing, Your Highness. You can continue to rest." The little maid beside her sighed. Her eyes were red as she replied.
Su Qingwen frowned desperately. She felt that her strength was slowly draining away. She bit her lips tightly and suddenly heard the voices outside clearly.
It seemed that everyone was cursing her and asking her to die.
Hearing this, Su Qingwen could no longer hold back her tears. What sin had she committed? Why were they treating her like this?
[System: Honey, are you okay? Why don't you take a nap?]
Su Qingwen shook her head. These days, she had been lying in bed all the time. She felt that her body was about to go limp. She definitely couldn't sleep anymore. "System, I'll just ask you one thing. Am I about to die? If I die, will this game end?"
[System: Theoretically, it is. But don't forget that there are other players here. If he is not willing to quit, the game will still continue. You'll just log off early.]
"I see." Su Qingwen nodded slightly.
She felt a bit sad. She never thought that after coming to this world with so much effort, she would leave in such a hurry. And she couldn't get anyone's sympathy or love. It was really pitiful.
Probably because of her sad mood, Su Qingwen closed her eyes, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
"Your Highness!" The little maid opposite seemed to be frightened. She immediately rushed over to support her and said anxiously, "Maybe I should go and find the imperial doctor."
Su Qingwen shook her head. She knew exactly how bad her body was.
"Qingwen." As soon as he entered the room, Hua Yueye saw her leaning weakly against the head of the bed. Her long hair was loose on her shoulders, making her small face look even paler. Her fingertips were trembling slightly, and the color on her lips seemed to be fading. She looked as if she was about to lose her breath.
Hua Yueye felt as if something had hit his heart. He rushed over and hugged her tightly. He whispered, "Can't you see that Concubine Xian is so sick? Why haven't you called the imperial doctor yet?"
"Yes." The little maid felt extremely wronged. One moment she was told to go, and the next moment she was told not to. It was really difficult for her.
"Forget it. Don't scold her. I know my own body." Su Qingwen gasped. Every time she said a word, she felt her strength was fading.
"Don't talk. The imperial doctor will come soon. He will cure you." Hua Yueye whispered in her ear, tightening his arms.
Hearing this, Su Qingwen shook her head and smiled bitterly. "Fool, I won't get better."
"Your Majesty, Doctor Zhang is here." The little maid just now rushed in and reported with her head down.
"Quickly let him come in and check Concubine Xian's condition." Hua Yueye said anxiously. He quickly adjusted Su Qingwen's posture to make her sit there steadily.
After Doctor Zhang came in, he first felt her pulse, then shook his head and sighed, "Your Majesty, this old servant has really done his best, but..."
"Is there still no news about the Snow Lotus from the Heavenly Mountains?" Hua Yueye asked dejectedly. His face instantly darkened.
"Your Majesty, haven't you seen the people outside? Those commoners are about to rebel. They are all looking forward to Concubine Xian's death. How could they come to help?" Doctor Zhang couldn't help but look up and sigh.
Su Qingwen was still conscious. Hearing this, her eyes suddenly turned red. She said helplessly, "Hua Yueye, tell me, who have I offended? Why do these people all want me dead!"
As she spoke, she kept coughing. Su Qingwen always knew that she was not liked by everyone. But she never thought it would come to this point where everyone was against her.
"Come here! Suppress all those people. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, cut off his tongue on the spot!" Hua Yueye really couldn't bear it anymore. He snorted coldly and gave the order angrily.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this! You've already incurred the anger of the people. If you use such violent means to suppress them now, I'm afraid..." Doctor Zhang knelt down beside him and pleaded urgently.
"Don't say any more!" Hua Yueye frowned tightly. He couldn't care about anything else now. Su Qingwen was so weak that it seemed she was about to leave him. This feeling was really unbearable.
Doctor Zhang looked at this scene and could only shake his head and sigh helplessly.
