Chapter 171: The Past
In the dark, Zhao Yunfei didn't even have time to scream, she was already killed by someone with a knife, and the blood instantly stained her couch, and she lay in a pool of blood with wide eyes.
The masked man in a night robe used a crystal clear colorful glass dagger to draw a circle along Zhao Yunfei's face, and a complete human skin appeared in her hand.
With a bloodthirsty smile in her eyes, she took off her veil and revealed her face, and the woman wearing the veil turned out to be Lan Xueting.
She applied the piece of human skin to her face, then took a bottle of ointment from her waist and applied it to her face.
The human skin was completely integrated with her face, as if the skin had grown on her face in the first place.
Heh, I originally thought that if I killed the princess of Beiling Kingdom and married to Prince Rui's mansion, I would be able to get your favor, but you actually humiliated me with that stinky woman, didn't you want to marry the crown princess?
Then I will marry into the palace, and in this life, you don't want to ask me. Hahahaha.
Lan Xueting thought in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a sneer.
After she did this, she took out a bottle of medicinal powder from the bag and poured it on Zhao Yunfei's corpse, which instantly transformed into a pool of liquid.
She picked up a bottle and put the liquid into the bottle, and then used magic to restore the bed to its original clean and tidy appearance, and changed into Zhao Yunfei's clothes and lay on her couch.
The Imperial Palace of the New Moon Kingdom.
"What do you say? You said that the crown prince actually chose the daughter born to a woman in the Qinglou? It's just nonsense. β
The empress angrily threw all the wine glasses on the table in front of her to the ground, making a clanging sound.
The imperial husband behind him held her shoulder and said softly: "Ah Yue, your wound has not yet recovered, it is better to be calm and not be irritable, don't get angry easily, if it pulls the wound, it will not be good."
The empress in the main hall turned to look at her husband, her eyes were full of anger, and she said to the person on the side: "You didn't expect this bastard thing to make such a choice, did you?" β
The royal husband, who was sitting next to her, shook his head and nodded again.
He probably felt that there was no hope for Lin Qingwan in this life anyway, so he ...... He just chose one at random? And she was chosen? β
The imperial husband said with complicated eyes, he couldn't guess that he would choose her, originally thought that even if he didn't choose the eldest lady, he would choose one from the main room.
Unexpectedly, he would choose a person that none of them expected.
"Ah Yue, the next plan is going to be faster, my life is running out."
The imperial husband looked at the empress with a sad expression.
"What? Haven't you always been in good health? Why do you suddenly say such frustrating words? β
The Empress was startled and propped herself up from the couch.
The imperial husband looked at the starry sky outside the window of Lingyun Palace, pointed to one of them and said: "You see, the light of the star that symbolizes my destiny has become more and more dim, which means that my life is approaching, and I will not be able to assist you by your side in the future, you must take good care of yourself, don't work too hard." β
"How...... How did it suddenly turn out like this? Didn't the people at your body hospital just check and there were no problems? The Empress asked, looking at him with a shocked expression.
"After observing the stars last night, Qingtianjian came to me and told me that I have two months to live at most, and it is a blood-light disaster, which means that I will not die of illness, but will be killed by someone."
The imperial husband looked at the empress in front of him, the woman he loved most in his life, she was always competitive, and she was burdened by power all her life, but she had never seen her really happy.
"Impossible, who can kill you in this New Moon Country?"
The Empress blurted out.
"I'm also quite curious about this question, except for the emperor in this Shuoyue country, no one should be able to kill me."
The imperial husband said in a faint voice, looking at the willow branches that were swaying around in the wind outside, and said: "In this entire Shuoyue Country, he is the only one who wants to kill me except you." β
"Impossible, I will never kill you, I can have today's status, it is because you desperately assisted me, helped me with advice, and strategized, so that I sat on the dynasty of the entire Shuoyue Kingdom, and I will not be able to kill you until I die."
The empress clenched the imperial husband's hand and said seriously, there was a rare trace of tenderness on her face, he knew how much the man in front of him loved her.
Only she knows how much he has paid for her, but for him, she is grateful and guilty, because her heart is long dead, and she can no longer fall in love with any man.
She couldn't believe in those so-called loves, so she felt too much guilt for him.
He suddenly hugged her back and whispered softly in her ear: "Ah Yue, you have been so strong in your life, fighting for power, and becoming the supreme empress of this Shuoyue country, but since you became this empress, I have never seen the simple and happy smile on your face when I first saw you, is this really the life you want?"
"......" The empress was silent, as if thinking about something, yes, she had exhausted all her life, fighting for power, for the sake of the infinite glory of life above these ten thousand people.
Butβis she really happy? It seems that since she became the empress of the New Moon Country, she has been working non-stop all her life, busy correcting the recitals, busy fighting for territory, and busy thinking about how to make the New Moon Country more prosperous.
She didn't have time to enjoy life, nor did she have time to enjoy the joy of family, she was just busy like a spinning top that couldn't stop.
But I didn't have time to ask my heart, ask myself if this is the life I want, and ask myself if I am happy.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, Ah Yue, in fact, I don't think you should transfer your hatred for Luo Chen's father to him, Luo Chen is also your biological son."
The royal husband shook his head, trying to dissolve the stagnant atmosphere and change the subject.
"To be honest, compared to letting Feng'er inherit the throne, I think Luo Chen is more suitable, Feng'er is our favorite daughter, I actually want her to live a simple and happy life, this is also my selfishness!"
The emperor's face was reflected in the lamplight, dark and concave, bottomless.
"Do you think so? But you also said that he would kill you, so I will never let him ascend to the throne of the New Moon. β
The empress looked at the moon outside the window with cold eyes, and said in a cold voice.
Thinking of the man she loved the most in her life and hurt her the most, her heart was filled with infinite hatred, and the person she loved most in this life was actually Bai Luochen's father.
But he never thought that the man had lied to her and almost killed her with his own hands, not only that, but he also put poison in the tonic soup he personally served to her every day during her pregnancy, so Bai Luochen was highly poisoned from the day he was born.
