In the past few days, Zhao Jian has been staring at the Biyang Marquis Mansion almost all the time, but he did not see the trial food in and out, and Zhao Jian was anxious, and went to the door to ask if the trial was in the mansion, and the servant said that the Piyang Marquis was called by the emperor to go to Beidi County to inspect the people's situation in these days, and check whether the people of Beidi County were warm and well-fed in winter. Zhao Jian thought it was true, so he left with a little cold heart and a little disappointed. After the servant waited for Zhao Jian to leave, he came back to report the trial in the inner room, saying that Zhao Jian had been sent away. Judging the food, he didn't feel relaxed, knowing that Zhao Jian would come in the next few days, in the big winter, how could the emperor summon himself to Beidi County? Empress Lu was extremely disgusted with Zhao Ji's matter and was unwilling to help, so she was so worried that she was pacing around the house with her hands behind her back and frowning, and regretted with a long sigh that she shouldn't have agreed to rescue Zhao Ji for the sake of jewelry, but now it is unsuccessful, but how to reply to others.

On this day, the snow stopped. Judging the food and putting on a robe and wanting to intercede with Zhao Ji again, he asked the queen to come forward to rescue Zhao Ji. When he went to Changxin Palace, Lu Houzheng was furious and wanted to punish a little palace maid for a trivial matter, and when he saw that she was in a bad mood, he didn't dare to say anything about rescuing Zhao Ji again, so he returned to the mansion in a gray manner, and was just about to enter the mansion, when a person behind him tightly grabbed the robe of the judge. Judging the food, he hurriedly turned his head and saw that it was Zhao Jian, he was slightly stunned, knowing that he couldn't avoid him, so he asked Zhao Jian to follow him in. Standing in the atrium, he explained his best to Zhao Jian straight to the point, but Empress Lu refused to buy it, and said that it was impossible to call a very jealous woman to save another woman whose husband had been lucky. After listening to Zhao Jian's words, he felt that he was a blow to the head, and thought to himself, is his sister's matter really irreparable? Judging his guilt, he finally took out the jewelry box that Zhao Jian gave himself and returned it to him, Zhao Jian 'sigh-' shook his head helplessly and coldly, his mind was not on the jewelry at all, and he got up and went straight to the door of the house without accepting the jewelry, without saying anything, like a cocoon without energy.

Judging the food with the jewelry box in his hand and watching the depressed Zhao Jian with a stiff back, he felt that he really couldn't live with Zhao Jian in his heart, and took other people's jewelry for nothing, although it was a joke whether the jewelry was made or not, it belonged to him, but Zhao Jian's friendship with his sister really made him a little moved. Zhao Jian's last hope is gone, as if the sky is falling, he didn't dare to visit his sister in the women's prison for several days, I don't know if my sister asked, how should I tell her, and there is no conclusion about King Zhao's affairs so far, only the screams and whipping of others are heard in the darkroom. Zhao Jian was so worried that he drank some wine in the wine shop on the street to increase his courage and stupidity, and went to see his sister in the most hazy way.

In the afternoon, Zhao Jian approached the women's prison in the Tingwei Mansion again, and the jailers were used to seeing him, and joked with him, "I came to see my sister again, what a good brother", Zhao Jian smiled bitterly and went to his sister's cell. But he said that Zhao Ji was getting thinner and thinner, his younger brother was busy working outside, he was worried inside, he couldn't eat, he couldn't sleep at night, he often lay on the tattered mat, and he was a little shivering from the cold. Zhao Jian saw his sister lying on the cold mat, and his heart became sour, and he was worried that he didn't know how to explain to his sister, so he didn't dare to wake up his sister, and only looked at his sister with a sad face outside the prison. Zhao Ji, who seemed to be asleep, saw him dimly, Zhao Ji saw from her brother's face that things were unsuccessful, somewhat small waves, the queen was the last person she could ask for help, but the last hope had been dashed. Zhao Ji dragged her bulky body and stood up slowly, and called out with a forced smile, "Brother is here." Zhao Jian replied with a low 'um'.

Zhao Ji was even more sure that there was no hope in his younger brother's tone, and he didn't want his younger brother to feel ashamed, so Zhao Ji pretended to comfort Zhao Jian easily, "My brother came to see me, I'm already very happy, it doesn't matter if anything else, don't feel guilty." ”

Zhao Jian heard this, but his eyes were red and he felt even more guilty, he still didn't dare to look at his sister's pure and transparent eyes, afraid that when he saw it, his tears would disintegrate his sister's last strong mind, Zhao Jian lowered his head with a smile on his face and scratched the back of his head.

Zhao Ji patted her brother's shoulder lightly across the prison bar, and comforted, "Sister doesn't blame you, live well." ”

Zhao Ji said a dull 'um' again and didn't say more, afraid that if he said more, he would shed tears, Zhao Ji smiled when he saw his brother's womanhood, and said with a slight tear smile, "What is the husband crying about?" ”

Zhao Jian bit his lip tightly and didn't answer, but he could hear a small sob, looking at the child in his sister's belly, Zhao Jian was angry with his sister and complained, "Why didn't my sister beat this child at the beginning, but now it has become a burden." ”

Zhao Ji took a deep breath and said calmly, "It's in vain to say anything now." He looked into his brother's eyes and asked, "Have you been to see King Zhao recently?" What happened to him? ”

Zhao Zhen said, "It's not good. ”

Zhao Ji nodded 'oh-' and said nothing more, and the two sisters and brothers stopped speaking for a long time, and they all endured silence. Zhao Ji stroked her bulging belly, adding a few sadness, and tears flowed silently, but she didn't make a sound. The sister and brother cried for a while, and the jailer told Zhao Jian to leave quickly, and the warden wanted to come to inspect. So the sister and brother had to say goodbye in a hurry, and before leaving, Zhao Ji comforted Zhao Ji several times not to feel guilty about his own affairs, and to live well, and he would go out well. Zhao Jian forced a smile on his sister with a bitter smile in his heart, and Zhao Ji also smiled bitterly and watched his younger brother go. Zhao Jian left, and Zhao Ji really began to cry. Crying alone for a long time, Zhao Ji looked at the sky outside through a tiny window in the high place with tears in her eyes, and gradually recalled the beauty of Zhao Kingdom, King Zhao was good to herself, although the queen was a princess of the Han Dynasty, she was also good to herself. Go on an outing with them in spring, enjoy the flowers and scenery with them in summer, stroll with them in autumn, and indulge in the world of Yuqiong with them in winter......

The more she thought about it, the more she felt like a heart twist, Zhao Ji hugged her head and cried alone, crying so much that the jailers were upset and didn't dare to question her. It wasn't until about midnight in the evening that Zhao Ji slowly stopped crying, her eyes were already red and swollen, and the damp cell was filled with a cold wind. She barely moved the hot meal brought by the jailer, huddled in the corner alone, staring blankly at one place with a dull look in her eyes, as if she had been drained. Suddenly, Zhao Ji felt a terrible stomach pain, so he rolled on the ground tightly with a stomachache, beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks, and the heart-rending pain made Zhao Ji shout with all her strength, 'Help-', and she was already weak and moaned in pain on the ground, biting her lip in pain, and her thin sweat was light and her clothes were through.

When the jailer heard the sound, he rushed over and saw Zhao Ji rolling on the ground, and in a panic, he didn't know who shouted, "She's going to give birth, hurry up and find the midwife." Everyone hurriedly looked for a midwife, and after a while, everyone looked at each other for a long time before they realized that there was a midwife in prison. The warden grabbed the back of his head anxiously, and a jailer's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to offer a plan and said that the other female dependents of King Zhao were locked up next door, and maybe some of them knew about women giving birth. The jailer on duty hurriedly sent someone to find five or six female dependents in the women's prison next door to help Zhao Ji give birth to the child. Originally, the jailer was a man, and Zhao Ji was going to give birth to a child now, which caught these iron-clad men off guard, and scolded while busy scolding, 'If you don't give birth sooner or later, you won't give birth sooner or later, give birth at this time, let these men do what to do, the girls have a lot to do, and they have to give birth to babies'.

No one bothered to pay attention to the broken thoughts of the jailers, everyone pulled the curtains, boiled water, prepared clean clothes and cloth strips, and nervously prepared, looking for midwifery tools, and one Zhao Ji made the entire women's prison all night. Several female relatives came over and saw that Zhao Ji was about to give birth, and they didn't have time to chat with her, so they drew the ground as a prison and pulled up the curtain to prevent the men from entering, and everyone entered the midwifery work. Several jailers saw the woman giving birth to a baby at close range, and they all approached the curtain curiously to see, but were pushed away by a female dependent, and the woman scolded, "I don't understand the rules, go and help me boil a pot of hot water, if Zhao Ji and the child have something, the emperor will blame you in the future." The jailers looked at each other, stared wide-eyed, and turned to boil water.

The ladies tried their best to move Zhao Ji to a good position, at this time Zhao Ji was already in pain, the pain was unbearable, only heart-rending shouting that King Zhao came to save her, and there were constant jailers outside who handed in warm and clean cotton clothes, and the ladies hurriedly put Zhao Ji on her body to keep warm. The lady brought hot water from the jailer's hand, found a small wooden stick and told Zhao Ji to bite it in her mouth, and stroked her stomach to tell her to relax and think about beautiful things. A female dependent told her about the beautiful things about the sisters in Zhao Kingdom, where would Zhao Ji think about this with peace of mind at this time, she still screamed in pain, and the jailers who were standing waiting for the news heard Zhao Ji screaming, and they all trembled one by one.

"Is that what your daughter-in-law calls when she gives birth to a baby?" A short jailer asked the man next to him.

"One voice is higher than another." The man next to him quipped, "That scene, that formation...... It can't be compared to here. ”

Inside the tent, it was like a war, and a woman called Nu Ai said to Zhao Ji while stroking Zhao Ji's stomach, "Madam, think about King Zhao, think about the beauty of Zhao Kingdom, don't be nervous, we will guard by your side." ”

Zhao Ji tried her best, struggled painfully, held her strength and gave birth, thinking that she was going to give birth to a child. Zhao Ji's abdominal pain came urgently, and it didn't take much effort to hear a child's cry of "Wow-", the female dependents helped Zhao Ji give birth to the fetus smoothly, and told her that it was a boy as soon as possible, everyone rejoiced, only Zhao Ji closed her eyes weakly and rested.

A female dependent told the guards that the child had been born and that it was a sturdy boy. The jailers clapped their hands and jumped in joy. The ladies hurriedly wrapped the newborn child tightly with clean cotton cloth, looking at the bloodstains on the little boy's face and closed eyes, the ladies smiled lovingly, this is the result of their full efforts, the little boy was born peacefully in the mother's painful struggle. The warden asked the two ladies to take care of Zhao Ji, and the rest returned to their respective cells.

After touching for about an hour, Zhao Ji woke up, and the female Ai held the cute baby to Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji liked to shed tears, looked at her sturdy son, thinking that his future would be a success, Zhao Ji quietly looked at her sleeping son, shook him gently, leaned over and cried and laughed against the child's small flower cotton jacket......

"Sister Ai, how are you?" Zhao Ji straightened up and asked Nu Ai about them.

Nu Ai lowered her head and was silent with a small sob. Zhao Ji held the child in one hand, and surrounded Nu Ai and another female family with the other, the three of them cried bitterly for a while, and Nu Ai held back her anger and said, "I don't know how King Zhao is now, how can the emperor not believe in his son-in-law?" Zhang Wang is kind and benevolent, how can he rebel? The other woman chimed in.

Zhao Ji no longer said anything about this matter, pursed the corners of her mouth, and leaned her head on Nu Ai's arms with a calm face.

When the ugly time came, Nu Ai and the other female dependent were already sleepy. Zhao Ji hugged the child and looked at it lovingly, unbuttoned her clothes and fed the child milk and juice, as soon as she saw the child, Zhao Ji burst into tears, "If you can go out, go to your uncle." Zhao Ji murmured to her infant son. The child just drank his mother's milk happily, and his little mouth muttered, and Zhao Ji smiled at him caressing again, and kissed him on the forehead.

Before dawn, there was a loud cry of 'Wow-', and the child's cry woke up the sleeping Nu Ai and another female relative. Nu Ai turned over in a hurry, and saw the child lying alone behind her in sleepy eyes, and she didn't see Zhao Ji's figure at all. Nu Ai yawned and rubbed her eyes and shouted, "Madame, ma'am." The female Ai drowsily picked up the child and turned back to the direction where she was asleep, and was about to lie down when she inadvertently saw Zhao Ji with a pale face hanging on the beam in the northeast corner.

"Ahh The clothes on Zhao Ji's body were torn to shreds, and it turned out to be a 'three-foot white silk', and the smaller body was hung quietly, and Zhao Ji rested forever.

The child cried unscrupulously, and the two female dependents also cried, looking up to the sky and crying......

A strange cold wind blew outside, whistling through the Tingwei Mansion.

The sun was rising, and the jailer on duty had just woken up and was led by a cry in Zhao Ji's cell, and when he hurriedly arrived, he saw that Zhao Ji had committed suicide, and the jailers were all a little stunned, and hurriedly carried Zhao Ji down and placed him on the mat, looking at Zhao Ji, who was already stiff, the jailers didn't know what to do, after all, Zhao Wang's matter was not really resolved, Zhao Ji died in prison, and they couldn't get out of the relationship.
