Ye Qiu left with the child, leaving only the two of them in the hall. This was deliberately done by Ye Qiu to give them a chance to talk alone. Without anyone around, Kong Suxin asked Zhang Yuwen excitedly.
Zhang Yuwen looked at her, unable to hide the compassion on his face: "He promised me that if I solve this crisis for him, he would let you leave the palace. Besides, I can't bear seeing you suffer such humiliation from the State Preceptor. You are a person, not a tool for the State Preceptor."
Kong Suxin suddenly became silent; how could she possibly want to be a mere tool for childbirth? Especially when being forced, how could she have the dignity of an Empress? It was simply a disgrace.
"But I am not worth you doing this for me!" Kong Suxin said, feeling both touched and worried.
