Tired from shouting and shouting, Qiu Xirou could only lie down weakly on the ground and sob weakly.

I have never been so helpless and hopeless as I am now.

To her father, she was just a bargaining chip for him to hold the emperor in check. To the emperor, she was the vicious daughter of an ambitious man who coveted Northern Yanjiang Mountain. To the entire harem, she was the object of secret discussion and ridicule by all the concubines.

So, to myself, it is just a joke after all.

After living for eighteen years, she realized for the first time the cruelty of this world.[

She is no longer the arrogant daughter of a noble family, nor is she the aloof mother of a country. She is just a chess piece, and both parties are manipulating and using her as a chess piece.

"Master Xiang." There was some movement outside the door, followed by the sound of the door being unlocked.

The door opened, and some dazzling sunlight came in. Qiu Jingtang, dressed in a jet black python robe, walked in with a cold face. Following closely behind him were Qiu Mu and Du Yinxiang.

Qiu Xirou covered her face, with blood oozing from the corners of her mouth. She looked at Qiu Jingtang hatefully and sneered:

"Yeah, I just don't live up to expectations, how about it? She lived up to her expectations, very much, and gave birth to a son for you. Your Qiu family is expected to be prosperous, and you can finally realize your spring and autumn dream, right?
