Xie Yao heard that her legitimate younger sister refused to marry the Crown Prince and insisted on marrying a poor scholar. That’s when she realized her sister had also been reborn.
In thei...
Chapter 341 He Wants to Go Back to the Past
Xie Yao's pupils shrank slightly. As expected...
She was shocked in her heart, but remained calm on the surface. "What nonsense are you talking about? You..."
Song Wenbo used his fingers to pinch Xie Yao's jaw, blocking her from speaking.
He lowered his head slightly and looked at Xie Yao with displeasure in his eyes, "Xie Yao, stop pretending."
"I really don't like you doing this."
ill!
Xie Yao cursed inwardly, whether Song Wenbo likes it or not... is it important?
Her eyes were full of resistance and anger. "Song Wenbo, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Song Wenbo's expression became even more gloomy.
His words were so clear, why did Xie Yao still want to pretend in front of him?
"Since you can't remember, then I, as your husband... will remind you well." Song Wenbo sneered and swung out the long whip from his sleeve. He swung it very flexibly, and a sound of breaking air was heard in the house.
"I bought this whip specifically because I was afraid you wouldn't be used to it." Song Wenbo waved the long whip in his hand very flexibly.
This is the memory of his previous life, engraved in his soul.
It was also because of this familiarity that he was certain that those dreams were not false delusions, but real past events.
While Song Wenbo was doing this, his eyes were fixed on Xie Yao, not missing any slight changes in expression on her face.
He is waiting.
Xie Yao was terrified, frightened, and trembling...
Just like in the previous life.
But no.
Nothing that Song Wenbo expected happened. Xie Yao looked at him with disgust in her eyes, as if she was looking at something dirty.
Xie Yao appeared calm on the surface, but only she knew the panic in her heart.
She was still subconsciously scared when she heard the sound of the whip cutting through the air, but she was able to overcome it.
Unlike in my previous life, when I would tremble at the sound of this voice.
Xie Yao's reaction was completely beyond Song Wenbo's expectations. Song Wenbo clenched the whip in his hand and looked at Xie Yao with suspicion and inquiry in his eyes.
Could it be that... Xie Yao really doesn’t know about her “previous life”?
No, it's impossible!
Song Wenbo quickly denied this idea. If Xie Yao knew nothing, how to explain what happened in Nanzhou and Shu in the past?
At that time, she had news about Xie Yujiao, but Xie Yao and Xiao Ji were one step ahead of them...
Xie Yao, there must be something wrong!
Bang!
Song Wenbo raised his hand and whipped Xie Yao. The pain came instantly. Xie Yao's face changed drastically in pain, and she looked at Song Wenbo with hatred in her eyes.
It's hatred, not fear.
Song Wenbo saw it clearly. He sneered and whipped him again, "Pretend, and you still want to pretend for me, right?!"
"Wait!" Xie Yao suddenly spoke up and stopped Song Wenbo.
Song Wenbo raised his whip in the air, his eyebrows slightly raised, "Do you remember now? Don't pretend anymore?"
Xie Yao nodded, "Yes, I remember now, you are right."
Xie Yao was so straightforward that Song Wenbo was stunned for a moment, with doubt in his slightly narrowed eyes.
Song Wenbo's other hand fell on Xie Yao's cheek, stroking it and asking, "Now that I think about it, you and I were also husband and wife?"
Xie Yao felt a little nauseous.
Being married to him... was truly her greatest shame.
But she still said: "Yes, you are right. If Xie Yujiao hadn't changed her mind suddenly..."
She is going to repeat the mistakes of her previous life.
Song Wenbo smiled and nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's all her fault. Otherwise... how good would we be?"
A trace of regret flashed across his eyes, and he stared into Xie Yao's eyes, "Do you still remember Ping Ping An?"
Xie Yao was stunned for a second, her expression dull for a moment.
She was just acting, but her distraction at this moment was real.
Xie Yao pursed her lips.
The "peaceful and safe" that Song Wenbo mentioned were not for others, but the two children that she conceived that night when she was forced to do so by the drunk Song Wenbo in her previous life.
She endured humiliation for the sake of her two children.
But since the child was born, she has never taken a good look at him. It's not that she doesn't want to, but Song Wenbo and Song Li don't let her.
Even so, Song Wenbo still captured her true emotions when she heard the names of her two children.
Song Wenbo squatted beside the bed, his hand slid from Xie Yao's cheek to her ear, gently kneading her earlobe, and whispered in a heart-to-heart voice: "They miss you very much, do you miss them?"
"You and Xiao Ji's child have been pampered and raised with luxury since childhood, with you accompanying him every day...but he has nothing but peace and quiet."
"They are all your children, don't you feel indebted?"
Do you owe me?
Xie Yao lowered her eyes slightly, a cold smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and she didn't.
She only regretted.
I regret why I gave birth to those two children and brought them into this world to suffer.
Having a father like Song Wenbo... is their disaster!
But Xie Yao did not say what she really thought. She just blew her eyelids and her eyelashes kept trembling, as if her emotions were greatly fluctuating because of Song Wenbo's words.
"Madam," Song Wenbo said, "Let's start over, okay?"
"Let's go back to the past and start over. This time, I will definitely treat you well and will never bully you again or let you suffer any injustice."
"OK?"
Song Wenbo's voice became gentler and gentler, but Xie Yao felt a chill on her back, as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and it was horrifying!
But she also understood in her heart that this was what Song Wenbo was planning.
Song Wenbo... wants to go back to the past!
Did he find her because he was sure that she remembered her past life from the very beginning? Song Wenbo's guess was indeed correct, but finding her... was really the wrong person.
Xie Yao took advantage of the situation and bit her lower lip lightly, with a look of uneasiness and guilt on her face, as if she was persuaded by Song Wenbo.
Hesitantly speaking, "But...how do I go back to the past?"
Song Wenbo's eyes lit up, and then he stared at Xie Yao, "I have to ask you this."
"Tell me how you did it."
The windows in the house were very small, and even though it was almost noon, the light was not sufficient and it was still very dim.
But at this moment, Song Wenbo's eyes were particularly bright. The desire and urgency in his eyes when he stared at Xie Yao made Xie Yao feel cold in her heart.
Song Wenbo...really cares about this matter and is very persistent about it.
If he knew that she had no idea what to do, he might do something crazy.
"lady."
Song Wenbo's voice was full of danger. "Why aren't you talking? Huh?"
"The Song family." Xie Yao blurted out, looking at Song Wenbo and said, "It should be related to the Song family."
Song Wenbo fell silent...
He is thinking.
Then, his sharp eyes fell on Xie Yao, "Really?"
Xie Yao said "honestly": "Although I am not sure, I guess it has something to do with the Song family."
"You know, I died in the Song family..."
Song Wenbo's eyes flickered, "And Xie Yujiao..."
Xie Yao was not surprised. She had guessed at the beginning that Song Wenbo deliberately let Xie Yujiao in to kill her.
Because she is already an eyesore.
As a successful man, he did not want to be talked about for "divorcing his wife", so her death was the best outcome.
Even if it wasn't Xie Yujiao, there would be other ways.
It was just that at that time, Xie Yujiao happened to become this knife.
"Heh." Song Wenbo sneered and looked at Xie Yao with a dangerous look in his eyes. "Do you think you can trick me like this?"
His hand fell on her neck, and it seemed that he could break her delicate neck with just a little force.
"You just want to trick me into taking you back to the capital."
Xie Yao was abducted by him. Considering how much the short-lived prince Xiao Ji cared about Xie Yao, I'm afraid the entire capital city is now under martial law.
Xie Yao said such things deliberately...just to trick him into returning to Beijing, which is tantamount to walking into a trap!
Song Wenbo's hands gradually became stronger, and Xie Yao clearly felt suffocated.
But at this moment she felt sore all over and had no strength at all, otherwise she would have resisted long ago. How could she be bullied by Song Wenbo like this?
But Song Wenbo's behavior was obviously just a deterrent, not really to kill her. Even though he kept exerting force, he left her room to breathe.
"I don't know, I really don't know..."
Xie Yao said this with great difficulty, and tried her best to look innocent and sincere when looking at Song Wenbo.
But she cursed Song Wenbo in her heart.
Seeing that Xie Yao was almost out of breath, Song Wenbo finally slowly let go of his hand.
"Cough, cough, cough." Xie Yao coughed, looking very fragile and helpless.
She clearly felt that Song Wenbo's eyes were full of suspicion when he looked at her.
But Xie Yao just lowered her eyes and didn't even look at Song Wenbo.
Even if she continued, Song Wenbo might not believe her. Instead of trying to convince Song Wenbo, it would be better for her to remain silent and let him think about it himself.
This is more effective than a hundred words from her.
"Tell me everything that happened between you and Xie Yujiao." Song Wenbo sat on the edge of the bed, listening attentively.
"Okay." Xie Yao nodded directly. This time she did not lie to Song Wenbo and told him everything she remembered.
“…”
"That's all?" Song Wenbo asked again after Xie Yao stopped talking.
"Yeah." Xie Yao nodded, "No more."
"Very good." Song Wenbo nodded, "These... I will ask Xie Yujiao one by one."
"Xie Yao, you better not lie to me. Otherwise... you know my methods, huh?"
Song Wenbo's voice sounded almost next to Xie Yao's ear, and his breath sprayed all over Xie Yao's ear, giving Xie Yao goose bumps all over her body and making her feel extremely nauseous.
She didn't say anything, but her heart was in turmoil.
Xie Yujiao...is still alive.
And Xie Yujiao is still in contact with Song Wenbo... Fortunately, she didn't lie just now.
Song Wenbo smiled contentedly and was about to get up and leave.
Xie Yao calmed herself down and suddenly called him, "Song Wenbo."
Song Wenbo stood beside the bed, turned his head and looked down at her, his eyebrows raised slightly, "Why? Can't bear to leave me?"
He spoke in a light tone, and there was contempt in his eyes as he looked at Xie Yao.
Xie Yao’s first reaction was to vomit!
Song Wenbo is really...disgusting as always.
She ignored Song Wenbo's barking and asked the question she wanted to know the answer to, "Does my grandmother's death have anything to do with you?"
Xie Yao raised her eyes at this moment and stared into Song Wenbo's eyes.
From the moment she was confirmed to be kidnapped, this question has been lingering in Xie Yao's mind.
Everything happened so fast that even she didn't react. She was still immersed in the sorrow of her grandmother's death, and before she had time to think deeply about the problem, she was kidnapped.
Xie Yao couldn't believe such a coincidence!
"What?" Song Wenbo raised his eyebrows. "My wife, you think too highly of me. How could I have calculated that?"
"Besides, she's your grandmother. How could I do anything to her?" Song Wenbo raised his hand and rubbed Xie Yao's head. The smile on his face instantly faded, and his eyes became dangerous. "Are you... doubting your husband?"
Song Wenbo's eyes were very dangerous, as if he would do something to Xie Yao in the next second...
Xie Yao: "How come?"
"You know, I didn't have any feelings for them."
Song Wenbo thought about it, a flash of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and then he said: "That's good."
"I have something to do now. I'll come see you later." Song Wenbo patted Xie Yao's cheek, then got up and left.
Bang.
The door of the room was slammed shut, and the already dim room became even darker.
Grandma!
Although Song Wenbo just denied it, it made her more certain: Song Wenbo was involved in this matter.
As for the mockery in Song Wenbo's eyes...
You must be laughing at her.
It's funny that she doesn't even know her real enemy. It's funny that the Zhao family has given a lot for her in this life and in her past life, but she doesn't know about her past life and still says such cold words.
Xie Yao closed her eyes, tears rolling down weakly from the corners of her eyes.
Grandmother...
Xie Yao was in great pain, but the more pain she felt, the calmer she became.
Just now when she mentioned the "Song family", Song Wenbo said the three words "return to the capital", which means that she has now left the capital.
She could still smell the stench left on her clothes, and coupled with the groggy feeling she had last night...
Able to enter and exit the city gate at night...delivering night fragrance!
It was through this channel that Song Wenbo quietly transferred her out of the capital.
By this time... Your Highness should have discovered that she is missing, right?
But she was quietly transferred outside the capital, and I'm afraid even His Highness wouldn't be able to think of this for a while...
For now, she can only rely on herself.
So she has to stay calm!
…
After Song Wenbo left the room where Xie Yao was, he ordered the attendants guarding the door to lock it.
"Did you hear everything?"
He looked at the masked woman in black clothes and a veiled hat standing not far away.
The woman had a slim figure and her expression was covered by a mask, so that only a pair of cold eyes could be seen.
Song Wenbo took a quick look, then looked away and asked, "Is it true?" He was naturally asking about what Xie Yao had just said.
The black-clad woman's gaze fell on Song Wenbo, her eyes becoming even colder, "That doesn't mean anything."
"You should know how cunning she is."
This was not the first time they had dealt with Xie Yao. Xie Yao... was definitely not a good person!
"Heh." Song Wenbo chuckled with some disdain and said, "Xie Yujiao, you can't do it yourself, so don't think that everyone can't do it."
It was okay in the past.
But in the previous life, Xie Yao was tortured and humiliated by him for such a long time... As for this life, Xie Yao only relied on the prophet and managed to escape from his control by luck.
Now that he has remembered what happened in the past, isn't it easy for him to control Xie Yao?
Xie Yujiao: “…”
She looked at Song Wenbo with an indescribable look, and then burst into laughter. She never knew that Song Wenbo was so...confident.
She looked Song Wenbo up and down, and said in a mocking tone, "You mean... you can do it?"
Her eyes focused on the area between Song Wenbo's legs.
Song Wenbo's face darkened instantly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Xie, Yu, Jiao, are you provoking me?"
Xie Yujiao sneered, "I'm reminding you not to underestimate anyone."
"Especially women."
She really didn't expect that Song Wenbo would become so arrogant so quickly. Did he really forget how he used to kneel at Xiao Ning's feet and flatter her?
ridiculous.
Xie Yujiao didn't want to get entangled with Song Wenbo anymore, so she walked past him and went to the room where Xie Yao was locked up.
But Song Wenbo directly reached out to stop her, "What do you want to do?"
Xie Yujiao held a dagger in her hand, and now she clenched it tighter. She looked at Song Wenbo with cold eyes, "Get out of the way."
Song Wenbo would naturally not give in. He said, "It's not time yet. You can't touch her now."
There was a flash of murderous intent in Xie Yujiao's eyes, and her voice became even colder, "Get out of the way."
Her patience was limited. If Song Wenbo dared to stop her again, she wouldn't mind just...
Xie Yao had caused her so much suffering, how could she just let it go? She would definitely take revenge!
Now Xie Yao admitted in front of Song Wenbo that she had already remembered things from her previous life.
Xie Yao knew clearly what kind of beast Song Wenbo was, but she still watched her marry Song Wenbo and caused her to be in such a situation...
How could she swallow this humiliation if she didn't eat Xie Yao alive?
The more Xie Yujiao thought about it, the more murderous intent appeared in her eyes.
Song Wenbo saw it clearly, so he was more determined to stop Xie Yujiao. It didn't matter if he tortured Xie Yao, but if Xie Yujiao accidentally killed Xie Yao...
That would be a waste of time.
"There is a long way to go, there is no need to rush." Song Wenbo said: "Besides, look at the way you are now... Who can be assured?"
"If you accidentally kill her..."
"I won't!" Xie Yujiao said viciously, "How can I bear to let her die like this?"
How could she be content if she didn't torture Xie Yao properly and vent her resentment?
Xie Yujiao's eyes flashed coldly, "I have prepared a great gift for her!"
"No." Song Wenbo's attitude was also very firm.
He had tortured and humiliated Xie Yujiao in the past. Although he was later retaliated by Xie Yujiao, he now has the memories of his past life and begins to show off his power again.
He didn't take Xie Yujiao seriously at all.
Just a woman who was used by him!
Xie Yujiao's face turned completely cold. She didn't want to argue with Song Wenbo anymore and was about to wave his arm away.
Song Wenbo naturally refused to give in and pushed Xie Yujiao away, "That's enough!"
"Wait another three days. Three days later, it will be the day when the seven stars align. You can do whatever you want to her then."
He didn't feel sorry for Xie Yao's death, but Xie Yao was already weak after being drugged, and he couldn't let her die early.
puff!
The next second, the sound of a dagger entering flesh was heard, followed by Song Wenbo's scream, "Ah!"
However, Xie Yujiao, who was being pushed, did not give in at all and directly stabbed the dagger into Song Wenbo's shoulder!
The dagger was completely penetrated.
There was a flash of satisfaction in Xie Yujiao's eyes, but Song Wenbo's body softened and he fell directly to the ground. He covered the wound with his intact hand and looked at Xie Yujiao as if she was a madman.
Crazy, Xie Yujiao is really crazy!
How dare Xie Yujiao treat him like this...
Song Wenbo's face turned pale, and he looked at Xie Yujiao with hatred in his eyes. He quickly reacted and ordered sternly: "Catch her!"
The people in the courtyard took immediate action and subdued Xie Yujiao.
Someone else helped Song Wenbo to get up. Song Wenbo's clothes were already stained with blood, and his face was still a little pale. Blood was gushing out of the wound on his shoulder.
Bang!
Song Wenbo raised his intact hand, took off the mask on Xie Yujiao's face, and threw it to the ground. Then he slammed it heavily on Xie Yujiao's face, "Bitch! How dare you touch me?!"
Song Wenbo was very sure that he had more power than Xie Yujiao because Xie Yujiao was just a tool.
And he, Song Wenbo.
He is the master's right-hand man and a capable minister who can expand the territory.
Xie Yujiao...just a woman.
What's the use?
Xie Yujiao wanted to resist and struggle, but the followers who used to obey her words now held her arms tightly because of Song Wenbo's orders, making her unable to move.
Xie Yujiao's eyes were spitting fire as she looked at Song Wenbo!
Song Wenbo... is looking for death!
Her face, which had been sealed under the mask, was now exposed to the outside world. The scars on her face were clearly visible. She could even sense the strange looks these people gave her...
Bang!
Song Wenbo slapped Xie Yujiao on the cheek again, "Look at this. If you look again, I'll dig your eyes out!!"
"Humph." Song Wenbo sneered, "Do you really think you are something? Who do you think you are? You... are just like Xie Yao, just a tool."
"If you were honest, I could still give you some face. Since you are shameless...then don't blame me!"
After Song Wenbo finished speaking, he ordered the guards, "Take her away and lock her up. Don't let her get close to Xie Yao for the next two days."
He had just been stabbed hard by Xie Yujiao, and his voice was a little weak at the moment.
After accidentally taking Xie Yujiao away, Song Wenbo quickly summoned a doctor to treat his injuries.
…
Inside the cabin.
Xie Yao heard the quarrel outside and she breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't have much strength left in her body. If Xie Yujiao really came in and wanted to do something to her...
She was totally unable to resist.
Judging from what I just heard, Song Wenbo is now the one in charge here.
Xie Yujiao originally had some status, but because of the dispute with Song Wenbo just now, she has obviously been deprived of her rights...
There is indeed someone behind Song Wenbo and Xie Yujiao.
Three days later, when seven planets align?
Xie Yao thought about it seriously and then remembered some common points.
In her previous life, she died three days later than Song Wenbo and others had planned... although not in the same year, it was the same day.
If she thought positively...she still had three days to live.
While Xie Yao was thinking about this, she was trying her best to control her hands and feet, trying to make even the slightest movement.
Now...she can only wait.
She looked towards the window to check the time...it was almost afternoon.
I don’t know if her disappearance will affect my grandmother’s funeral... I don’t know what His Highness is doing now...
Even if she was gone, His Highness still had to have lunch. He had just recovered and needed to rest...
At this moment, Xiao Ji, who was missed by Xie Yao, hurriedly left the Zhao family and went straight to the main hall of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.
He grabbed the sleeping emperor's shoulders and shook him vigorously, his cold voice unable to conceal his urgency, "Tell me, where is Xie Yao?!"
