Although Boss Xue flatly denied having changed his own fate, all the clues and solid evidence pointed the finger at him without exception.

This made it impossible for Xue Jinhua to find any reason to doubt these irrefutable facts.

However, there was always a lingering doubt deep in her heart.

If it was true as Boss Xue said, that he was absorbing my fate just to ensure the prosperity of the Xue family, then the question was - I am also a member of the Xue family! Even though I am a woman and may marry someone else in the future...

But as long as she could maintain the family's honor and reputation, it would be fine if she chose to remain single for life. There was no need for Boss Xue to go to such great lengths to set up such a plan.

Recalling the previous confrontation with Boss Xue, she had already been overwhelmed by the burning anger and lost her rationality.

At that time, there was no time to calm down and think carefully about the reasons.

At this moment, as her mood gradually calmed down and she regained her composure, she felt more and more that there were many strange things about this matter.

Maybe...that mysterious book can provide me with the answers I want.

Because of this, Xue Jinhua made up her mind to meet the beggar master no matter what.

Because only from him can this series of confusing mysteries be solved.

Gu Yu's heart suddenly sank, and he looked at Xue Jinhua solemnly, and whispered, "My queen, the guards outside are very strict now. We can't find any chance to slip out."

Looking back, as a maid, she could occasionally find opportunities to go out.

However, the situation took a turn for the worse after Tsing Yi appeared.

The Imperial Master had even specially dispatched many additional guards to surround the place tightly. Not to mention a little maid like her, even the Empress could not escape at this moment.

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua tightly covered her slightly bulging belly, frowned, and her expression became more serious.

She opened her red lips and said firmly, "No, we have to find a way no matter what!"

Guyu, who was standing by, saw his master's appearance and felt anxious.

She knew the queen's worry and determination at this moment, but she couldn't help but persuade her: "Queen, please don't be impulsive! If something goes wrong with the fetus in your belly, it will be a loss!"

Xue Jinhua knew the stakes involved, but the current situation made her feel deeply powerless.

She can hardly even ensure her own safety, let alone protect her unborn child?

Furthermore, seeing the concern that Boss Xue showed for the baby in her belly, she could conclude that he would definitely not want to let the child encounter any accident.

Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua slowly closed her eyes and silently whispered words of apology to the little life in her belly.

At this moment, a terrified cry for help suddenly came from the room where the Crown Princess lived: "Crown Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at the shocking blood, Guyu felt a chill running down his spine to his forehead, and he instantly became panic-stricken.

She ran out of the house as fast as the wind, shouting at the top of her lungs: "Oh no! The Crown Princess has had a miscarriage, and now her stomach hurts so badly that she can't stand it any longer! Please, everyone, please go and get the imperial physician over!"

When the guards outside the house heard this, they were struck by lightning and their faces changed suddenly.

They knew clearly in their minds that the importance that the Imperial Master attached to the Crown Princess's unborn baby was beyond imagination.

Not daring to delay in the slightest, several of them immediately rushed to report the matter to the imperial teacher.

At the same time, Mr. Xue stared at the pill being refined in the furnace calmly and said in a deep voice: "Be sure to take good care of this pill. If anything goes wrong again, you don't have to come to see me again!"

The person beside him nodded timidly and said, "Yes, I understand."

On the other side, Gongzi Jin was also staring at the pills in the furnace, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

Just then, a loud noise suddenly came into his ears.

His heart skipped a beat, and he made a quick decision. He flashed and quietly hid in a corner nearby.

Not long after, Qing Yi hurried in.

She looked around and was secretly delighted when she found that there was no one around the stove.

Qingyi was asked by the Crown Princess to come and get the medicine.

She reached out for the pill without hesitation, however, just as her fingertips were about to touch the pill, she suddenly felt a chill on her back.

After all, this woman in green was also somewhat skilled in martial arts, and in just a moment, she keenly realized that something was wrong.

In a flash, she dodged a fatal blow from Young Master Jin.

Knowing that he was no match for the other party, Qingyi made up his mind and without caring about anything else, he kicked the stove in front of him to the ground.

In an instant, sparks flew in the stove and smoke filled the air.

Seeing this, Gongzi Jin, who was standing by, thought to himself that something was wrong and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

He instinctively wanted to rush forward to see what was going on, but Qingyi was faster. She quickly picked up a bucket of water and poured it on the blazing fire without hesitation, putting out the flames in an instant.

Then, she quickly covered the mysterious box with a wet cloth, took advantage of the chaos to break the window, and disappeared into the night.

Gongzi Jin's face was terribly gloomy. He knew that this matter was of great importance and there could be no delay at all.

So, he flashed and followed closely behind like a ghost, chasing after him relentlessly.

Soon, the two of them came straight to the back mountain, one in front and one behind.

Gongzi Jin leaped forward and blocked Qingyi's way, saying coldly: "Hand over the things, or today will be the day you die!"

Hearing this, Qing Yi was not afraid at all. Instead, he raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a contemptuous smile, and sneered: "Humph, even if I hand over the things obediently, I'm afraid I can't escape death in the end, right?"

Gongzi Jin frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "If you know what's best for you, I will consider leaving you a whole body."

Qing Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter when she heard this. Her laughter echoed in the silent night sky, sounding particularly harsh. She stopped laughing and said disdainfully, "Hahahaha... an intact corpse? This means nothing to me!"

Seeing that Qingyi was so ungrateful, Gongzi Jin stopped talking and shook his wrist, and the long sword with a flashing cold light was unsheathed.

Qingyi was not to be outdone. He drew out the sword from his waist. For a moment, swords flashed and shadows intertwined. The two men engaged in a thrilling life-and-death battle in the dark night.

Just when the two sides were fighting hard, a clear and pleasant bell sound suddenly came.

Upon hearing the voice, Qingyi couldn't help but frown, secretly surprised.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Gongzi Jin, and her eyes happened to fall on the jade pendant he was wearing on his chest.

Her expression instantly became tense, full of disbelief, and her lips trembled as she said, "Young Master Jin, you are actually..."

The voice seemed to be stuck in the throat, sounding particularly low and hoarse.

Seeing that she already knew his true identity, Gongzi Jin couldn't help but frown, his eyes revealed a chilling coldness, and he responded coldly: "No one has ever been able to know my identity alive.

Now that you have discovered this secret, unfortunately, today is the day you die."

After hearing this, Qingyi froze in place, her originally beautiful face now filled with astonishment and fear.

However, even so, she still forced herself to cheer up and continued to ask: "Do the Imperial Master and the Crown Princess also know about your identity?"

Gongzi Jin's brows knitted together again, and he replied in an increasingly cold tone, "They don't need to know these things. I don't need to explain or account to anyone for everything I have done."

At this moment, a muffled "puff" sound was heard.

It turned out that the gleaming sword in Gongzi Jin's hand had mercilessly pierced Qing Yi's chest! In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, staining the surrounding ground red.

"Of course, since you know my secret, you must keep it buried forever."

Gongzi Jin said this expressionlessly, and at the same time drew back his sword without hesitation.

But no one expected that at this moment, Qingyi suddenly burst out with amazing power from nowhere.

She used up her last bit of strength, suddenly reached out and grabbed Gongzi Jin's sleeve, and pulled hard, forcibly pulling the mask off his face.

When the face hidden behind the mask finally appeared in front of her, a flash of realization flashed across Qing Yi's eyes, and then her body fell limply...

At this time, Gongzi Jin's long-hidden identity was unexpectedly exposed! His face instantly became solemn, and his eyes, which were originally as calm as water, now burned with rage, like a completely enraged beast.

Suddenly, he kicked the man in green hard.

Qingyi knew that she would not live long, but she never forgot the mission she was carrying out.

At the last moment of her life, she hugged the pill tightly in her arms, then jumped without hesitation, falling straight towards the bottomless cliff.

Young Master Jin stood quietly on the cliff, holding the silver mask in his hand. The mask was flashing coldly in the moonlight.

His thin lips curled up slightly, forming an elusive smile.

In this inky black night, he was like an unattainable king, overlooking everything in the world.

Not long after, the pursuers from the temple rushed to the scene.

At this time, Gongzi Jin had already put on the silver mask again and returned to his former indifference and mystery.

Facing everyone's questions, he simply said: "Go back, the assassin is dead." After that, he turned and left, leaving the pursuers looking at each other in bewilderment.

At the same moment, Xue Jinhua felt a sharp pain suddenly attacking her abdomen.

The pain was like a surging tide, quickly flooding her whole body. She bent over involuntarily, covering her stomach tightly with both hands, and groaning in pain.

When Boss Xue, who had rushed over, inadvertently glimpsed the pool of blood on the ground, the expression on his face froze instantly, as if he had been cast under a spell.

Then, his face suddenly turned livid, veins popped out on his forehead, his eyes widened like bells, and he shouted angrily at the people around him: "What the hell is going on! Who can tell me what happened?"

Gu Yu, who was standing nearby, stepped forward quickly, lowered his head and answered carefully, "Master Imperial Master, the queen accidentally slipped and fell to the ground while walking just now."

After hearing this explanation, Master Xue was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at Guyu and cursed: "You useless things! You can't even take care of the master. What's the use of you! Where is the imperial physician? Come over here and let the Crown Princess see you!"

Along with Boss Xue's deafening roar, the imperial doctors also ran over in panic.

They all looked pale and began to treat Xue Jinhua's illness in a panic.

The leading imperial physician did not dare to be negligent at all. He quickly stretched out his fingers and placed them on Xue Jinhua's slender wrist, taking her pulse attentively.

After a while, he carefully checked Xue Jinhua's physical condition again.

After a busy period, the imperial physician finally completed all the examination steps, but his face looked extremely solemn.

He walked to Boss Xue with trembling legs, then fell to his knees with a plop. He said with a hint of panic and uneasiness in his voice: "Master Imperial Master, the situation is really not optimistic..."

After hearing this, Boss Xue's already furrowed brows furrowed even more, with obvious impatience on his face. He shouted loudly: "What's wrong? Stop hesitating and tell me clearly!" The voice was deafening, as if the whole palace could hear his roar.

The imperial physician's heart trembled and he swallowed tremblingly. Then he mustered his courage and continued, "Your Excellency the Imperial Master, the Crown Princess accidentally fell down, causing the fetus in her belly to be shaken and suffer a miscarriage. The situation is extremely critical now. If the bleeding from her body cannot be stopped quickly, I'm afraid her life will be in danger..." Having said that, the imperial physician could not help but wipe the cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

At this moment, even Xue Jinhua himself was extremely shocked.

She originally thought she was just pretending to fall, but she didn't expect that the fall would actually lead to such serious consequences.

However, now that things have come to this, she knows in her heart that as the saying goes, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Now that things have come to this, she will never regret the decision she made.

Boss Xue's face was as gloomy as frost. He stared at the imperial physician coldly and said with gritted teeth: "If the baby in the Crown Princess's belly cannot be saved in the end, humph, then I think you don't have to keep it anymore!" These words were like a thunderclap, which frightened the imperial physician so much that he trembled all over and almost collapsed to the ground on the spot.

The imperial physician knelt down and kowtowed immediately, and responded in fear and trepidation: "Master Imperial Master, please calm down. Please rest assured that I will do my best to save the Crown Princess and will never let you down!" After saying this, he quickly stood up and threw himself into the intensive treatment work.

After the imperial physician's race against time to save her, the bleeding in Xue Jinhua's lower body was finally brought under effective control.

Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they still did not dare to let their guard down, for fear that another accident might happen.

However, her pregnancy was still short and the fetus was extremely fragile.

If the bleeding continues, I'm afraid this little life, which has not yet been formed, will be difficult to save.

If the situation is really that serious, the only feasible solution is to stay in bed for a long time.

Boss Xue said solemnly, "Crown Princess, even if you don't care about your own safety, you should at least think about the baby in your belly! If something happens to you... what will happen to these two poor children? They are so innocent!"

Unexpectedly, Xue Jinhua's eyes widened when she heard this, and she cursed without any courtesy: "Bah! Stop pretending to be kind and righteous here! Master Imperial Master, don't think I don't know what you are planning."

"Although this child is safe and sound in my belly, you never intended to give him a safe birth! Now the prince's life or death is unknown. No matter what, he will die. I will never let your evil plan succeed even if I have to sacrifice my own life!"

Hearing this, Boss Xue couldn't help but frown slightly and said in a deep voice: "Crown Princess, don't be impulsive. It's ok that you don't care about yourself, but you can even ignore your children? Don't you really care about other people?"
