Haoyue pounced forward, and then was kicked back at an even faster speed.
The kick in the chest was so painful that she lay on the ground for a long time without being able to recover.
It was really Gu Yanxi, Haoyue smiled, only he would be so ruthless to a woman, this man had never looked down upon her from the beginning to the end, she was stupid, and still wanted to change her fate starting with him, but she didn't expect that this life would be worse than the last one, at least the last life was not so unbearable, at least her hands were not covered in blood, at least... she was still Haoyue, not the crazy herself now.
If, if he rejected all women from the beginning to the end, it would be fine, but he didn't. He fell in love with another woman. He was willing to turn against the emperor for her and would rather give up everything for her. He was not heartless, he was just cruel to her!
That's why she was so unwilling to give up and had come to this point step by step. Her current situation was caused by those two people. How could she be willing to accept this!
Struggling to sit up, Haoyue looked at Gu Yanxi. His vision was still a little blurry, but he could see his indifference clearly. "I said I'm good at divination. Have you ever believed it?"
"Never believed it."
Haoyue chuckled, not surprised. The people to whom she dared to reveal her true identity did not believe her, but she did not dare to reveal it in front of the emperor. She knew deep down who she could trust and who she could not.
But she can't live anymore, why should others live a glorious life!
Standing up shakily, Haoyue slowly walked towards the light, with a sarcastic look on his face, "I'm not good at divination. I just lived my life again. In my previous life..."
Haoyue pointed at the person that Chen Qing had casually thrown to the ground, "In my previous life, I was his imperial concubine."
Gu Yanxi looked back, Chen Qing understood, glanced at Haoyue, and went out to guard. He couldn't help but feel fortunate that there was no one else in the Ruyue Palace.
“What are you afraid of? I’m not afraid. Even if people find out, I’ll be burned to death as a witch. But… I won’t die alone.” Haoyue laughed arrogantly, “Just because I’ve lived an extra lifetime, I know that the Fourth Prince is dead, the Fifth Prince is disabled, the Sixth Prince didn’t even live to this day, that Yuan Shifang is from the Chaoli tribe, that Wu Yong was poisoned to death, and that all the people in the Hua family who were supposed to be exiled died in Yinshan Pass, which led to riots among students all over the world, turmoil in the court, the Hua family huddled in a corner, and the eldest daughter of the Hua family remained unknown.”
Haoyue raised her head and smiled silently, "Just because of this one person, the emperor died early, the fifth prince was not disabled, the sixth prince became the prince, Wu Yong is still alive, the Hua family is still living well in Yinshan Pass, Hua Zhi became the Taifu as a woman and is invincible. Two lives, completely different directions, those who should have died are still alive, and those who should have lived are dead. Gu Yanxi, do you think that your precious person is really so smart that she can do so many things? Maybe she just took advantage of two lives, or was possessed by some dirty thing. Look at her current network of relationships, aren't you afraid that she will overthrow your Daqing Kingdom?"
Gu Yanxi listened to her without saying a word, but what he said was completely unrelated to this, "Who gave you the idea to seduce the late emperor to eat the blood and flesh of a boy?"
Haoyue's smile froze. She said so much, but this was Gu Yanxi's reaction? Was he not afraid? Was he not suspicious
"How do you know that this was someone else's idea? I hate the emperor, I hate you, I want to destroy Daqing, why do I need others to give me advice?"
"I just suspected it before, but now I am sure."
"So what? Do you think I would tell you?"
Gu Yanxi raised her lips coldly, with no intention of pressing the issue at all, and turned and left.
Haoyue raised her voice without giving up, "Gu Yanxi, aren't you afraid that Hua Zhi is just a disguised daughter of the Hua family, but is actually an ugly and disgusting monster?"
Gu Yanxi didn't even turn her head, but her voice was powerful and resounding, "So what? As long as she is Hua Zhi, I will be happy with her even if she is a ghost or a demon."
Haoyue's mind went blank, this was not the answer she wanted to hear. No, how could there be such deep affection? It was impossible. How could Hua Zhi be so blessed in this life to deserve such deep affection from Gu Yanxi!
"Gu Yanxi, Hua Zhi is just using you. She is using you. Do you think she really likes you? She is just pretending. She wants to save her Hua family and keep the Hua family rich and prosperous. She is using you!"
Gu Yanxi finally stopped walking. When Haoyue was delighted that his plan had worked, he slowly turned around with a smile on his face. "I'm glad that I'm worth being used. Not to mention being used, even if you want my life, I'm willing to give it up with both hands."
"Why do you have to deceive yourself..."
Gu Yanxi ignored her and threw a pill into the room before ordering, "Lock them all and seal the door as usual."
Chen Qing took the order and stepped forward, picked up the fourth prince who had completely fallen down and threw him in, then pushed Haoyue, who knew something was wrong and wanted to run away, far away, and took the opportunity to close and lock the door, then personally took a hammer and nailed the boards back one by one.
He recognized the smell of the pills that the master threw, it was an aphrodisiac. The master was really vicious, the four princes were castrated, and then they were poisoned by the aphrodisiac...
Outside the hall, Yuxiang was waiting.
Without further ado, he followed silently to Fushou Palace.
Shaoyao was massaging the empress dowager's forehead when she heard the noise and grinned at Yan Xi. For her, there was no such thing as being unable to laugh during the mourning period. Maybe she was heartless, but for her, the only person close to her was Brother Yan, and then it would be Hua Hua, who would inevitably become her sister-in-law's playboy, and then it would be Xiao Liu's turn. The empress dowager would be further behind, and everyone else was outsiders, including the late emperor.
The Queen Mother opened her eyes, and with the help of Yuxiang, she sat up and beckoned, "Come and talk to Grandmother."
Gu Yanxi sat over, and her palm softened as she looked at him becoming increasingly skinny. "Take a good rest, and don't think too much about anything. What happened will eventually pass."
"I didn't think about it, but I just felt uneasy after doing so many bad things."
"Your decisions are never made for yourself."
"Because I know you can understand me, I feel even more guilty." The Queen Mother sighed, "The late Emperor said that he would allow you and Hua Zhi to get married only after the Crown Prince is married. I agree. I am also a woman, and I know best that once a woman gets married and has children, her life is no longer her own. I am also afraid that she will have other ideas in her mind, that your heart will be biased, and that the Crown Prince will be wary in an unnecessary way."
The Queen Mother smiled with a hint of bitterness, "Yan Xi, your in-laws' family is the Hua family, the leader of civil officials. Not to mention the contributions of their family throughout the generations, even if we only count Hua Zhi, it is hard to count. If you can't suppress the prince, how will he live in the future? How will he get along with you?"
"Grandson understands. Grandson... has also discussed this with Azhi, and she said she can wait." Gu Yanxi's voice suddenly fell silent, "Grandma, Azhi has done the best she can, don't ask her for more."
The Queen Mother's lips twitched, and after a while she answered him, "I know."
