Transmigration: The Fate of the Villainess

220 A woman in love is always wicked Part I

She did not do it.

She did not do anything.

She did not kill anyone’s child!

Everything was dictated by fate. It was not her!

“Y…Your Majesty.”

It was not…

“Your Majesty.”

Everything that happened, it was not her.

She was here, not at the east palace.

.....

Whatever happened to Bai Hua was not caused by her!

“Your Majesty!”

Bai Yu was startled when Xiao Xi shook her after calling her many times and receiving no response. “W…What is it?”

“Should I prepare a carriage to the east palace?”

Bai Yu turned silent. She did not want to go.

“Your Majesty? Is something the matter?” Xiao Xi was worried by the silence of her mistress. Normally, she was calm and capable of quick decisions when an emergency happened.

“Bengong…” Bai Yu took a breath and gripped her hands tightly to hide the trembling. “…Bengong shall go to the east palace.”

After making the decision, Bai Yu was quiet again. She let Xiao Xi help her into another set of clothes as she was already preparing to retire for the night. Soon, everything was ready. Bai Yu left the palace with a calm expression.

As the person of the highest status in the palace right now, Bai Yu could not afford to ignore the east palace, no matter how much she wanted to.

The villainess was terrified.

She was terrified of the fate that, despite her valiant struggle, was inevitable for Bai Hua. Even though Bai Yu no longer resented her half-sister, fate was still relentless.

“Make way for the Empress.”

The sound of an announcement was heard throughout the east palace. The servants were already prepared to receive her. Bai Yu ignored their words of greeting. She headed inside, led by Xiao Chang, who had been waiting for her.

“Where’s Taizi Fei?”

Before anything else, she must ask about the matriarch of this place first.

“With the second consort, Your Majesty.”

Hearing the answer, Bai Yu nodded in relief. If Chu Jiaoxin was there, she would be able to use her magic to stabilize Bai Hua’s condition in case there was an injury from her miscarriage.

“How’s she?”

As soon as she stepped inside Bai Hua’s residence, she waved her hand once to stop Chu Jiaoxin from giving her curtsy. The Taizi Fei was embracing a woman on the bed. A heart-wrenching wail could be heard from that woman.

Bai Yu did not need to hear the answer to know that Bai Hua was not injured. The only thing that was harmed was her heart.

“Uuuuh…My child. Hic...My child…”

The sound of weeping from the depth of the pain in her heart stopped Bai Yu’s feet. Her hand came to gently rest on her stomach. How lucky was she that her children were still here?

“What did I do wrong? ...What did I do?!” Bai Hua screamed. Her voice was hoarse from a long period of crying. “Heaven! What do you want?! You brought me here…hic…And now I’m here…I’ve endured. I’ve fought. Is that not enough? Why did you take my baby away?!”

Boom!

As if heaven had heard her cry. A sound of thunder boomed, echoing throughout the land. A rush of wind came shortly after, bringing with it drops of rain that should not happen during the season. The gust that came through the window that had been left open made Bai Hua move.

The broken-hearted heroine left Chu Jiaoxin’s arms. She struggled to get down from the mattress and run outside, but could only leave the bed for a few steps before succumbing to weariness.

Bai Hua collapsed in front of Bai Yu’s feet.

“My child…”

A whisper came from her dried lips. Her beautiful face was obscured by tears and disheveled hair. Her red, swollen eyes stared out the window in a daze. The talented and graceful second consort was no more. It was as if Bai Hua had truly become a mad woman.

Bai Yu turned her eyes away from her sister to another noble lady in the room. Chu Jiaoxin was looking at her as well. She shook her head. Even the arrogant first princess was affected by the loss of a person close to her. She was further saddened by the state Bai Hua was in.

Magic could heal the body, but not mend the broken heart.

Bai Yu sighed before kneeling down to help Bai Hua back to the bed. She had miscarried, and she needed to rest. However, Bai Hua shook her hands off, trying to go outside despite not having an ounce of strength left within her. Seeing Bai Hua’s stubbornness, Chu Jiaoxin came to help hold her.

“Bring him back! Bring my baby back!”

Her bloodstained hand extended forward as if she was grabbing something from the sky above.

Boom!

“My baby! My baby! Aaaaahh!!”

Boom!

“Stop!” Bai Hua’s scream, which tried to rival the crack of thunder, was stopped by Bai Yu’s yell. Her peach blossom eyes looked back at Bai Yu. The glazed look within had now turned into a trembling one.

“Help me…” Bai Hua threw herself toward Bai Yu. The villainess’ shoulders were held and shook by the heroine. “…You came here to change fate, didn’t you?! Help my baby. Give my baby back. Give him back. Oooohhh….”

“Bai Hua, listen.” Bai Yu tried to remain calm and spoke to her sister in a serious and stern voice. “You’re a doctor. You know best how everything is. Right now, your body is the most important thing. You, letting your heart and mind be troubled like this, will only worsen your health. Do you understand?”

“No…” Bai Hua repeated that same word again and again as tears overflowed from her eyes.

“You should lie down first.” Chu Jiaoxin added when she saw that Bai Hua was still.

“No! You have to take him back. Take him back to me! You can change fate, Bai Yu. Help me…” Bai Hua clasped her hands over her chest. Her voice quivered. “I beg you. Bai Yu…I beg you.”

Bai Yu closed her eyes to escape from the sight before her. “You should get some rest first.” She tried to convince her sister to prioritize her rest.

“No!” Bai Yu’s shoulders were held once again. This time, Bai Hua’s strength made her dizzy. “You have to help me. He’s the only one that’s mine…”

“You…”

“Nothing in this world is mine! Only him! I only have him!”

“You have to calm down first.” Chu Jiaoxin tried to hold Bai Hua back from shaking Bai Yu. Yet she was pushed away. No one expected the sick person to have such strength.

“You won’t help me!” The once enchanting peach blossom eyes were now filled with hatred and pain as they glared at Bai Yu. “Why won’t you help me?! You’re selfish! Selfish!”

Bai Yu wanted more than anything to tell her that she was unable to, not unwilling. The most she could do was send Xiao Chang to take care of Bai Hua in order to prevent it from happening. And in the end, she could not prevent the inevitable.

“Then I’ll die! I’m going to be with my baby!” Bai Hua declared as she reached for Bai Yu’s phoenix hairpin, taking her by surprise. “Hahahahaha. Now I’ll be with him. Wait for mommy a little more. Hahahaha.”

“Stop! Ow!” Bai Yu tried to resist Bai Hua. The mad woman’s hands pulled and jerked her hair. Chu Jiaoxin attempted to help but could not fight against Bai Hua’s grip.

“Let me go! He’s waiting for me! Aaaaaah!!” Bai Hua released her hand from Bai Yu’s hair because of the heat from Chu Jiaoxin’s magic. The royal maids took this opportunity to retrain Bai Hua and forced her away. However, they could not take her far before they were all pushed away by the strength of the despaired woman.

“Let her go.”
