The Empress Behind the Veil

Chapter 45 Followed Nightmares Continue

Ji Mie soared into the sky, looked at her son with a smile, “My son, you must be calm, Father cannot help you. You should be more courageous, and try to help yourself.”

“But, I was afraid..” after saying, Qin Ruojiu just realized that the vibration had disappeared. At this moment, the atmosphere became so calm and peaceful.

“Don't be afraid, my son, you'll be fine. There is nothing you cannot do, the important thing is you are brave and strong, you can definitely get through all the obstacles in your life.” Said Ji Mie with affection and no heart. This is the care and affection of a father for his son.

“But I don't want to stay in the palace, it's cold like on an iceberg, the cold is bone-chilling.I want to get out of here, I want to live with Dad, then I can be happy.”

“My dear child, do not forget, you are an Empress. You're married, where can you live with Dad again?”

“But I don't want to be empress, everyone here is so scary, I have to be vigilant at all times.I don't like this kind of life.I want to be with Dad. Help Dad pick plants in the forest, split wood, wash clothes, cook.” Qin Ruojiu said with the pain of remembering the good times were far from him, he cried and shouted at his father.

But his loving and calm father suddenly became cold and unfeeling, “Useful. It could be the empress, why even want to be an ordinary girl. You're my son, aren't you?”

“I...” Qin Ruojiu was surprised, because this was the first time his father had scolded him. His wet eyes continued to stare at his father, speechless.

“Smart, you must serve His Majesty the Emperor well. We, the witches, are not accepted by others, are always ostracized, if you do not become empress, our people could be threatened, and we might be slaughtered.”

“Dad, don't go, take me away, take me away!” his father's appearance grew increasingly blurry, Qin Ruojiu was afraid again.

She was afraid of loneliness, she was afraid of being alone. He did not want his father to leave him as well, he stuck out a hand to catch the shadow, but , in this very instant, a frightening face appeared before him.

Qin Ruojiu shouted in fear, then woke up from a dream.

When he woke up, he looked around. After realizing that he was only dreaming, he was relieved. Both of his eyes were wet, the embroidery of peonies was finished.

Apparently he was asleep, though,

Don't know why, lately, she can't sleep well, has no appetite. Right now, he was even having nightmares during the day, did this signify anything?

While she was still feeling scared, Lu’Er hurriedly ran over, “Empress, Empress.

Qin Ruojiu became startled and started to panic, because she was still not calm because of the dream.

“What's up?” ask him with a furrow.
