Already crazy
"Mother, this is just a temporary solution. Only by clinging to your elder sister can we have a good life." Madam Su took the tea he handed to her without thinking and took a sip. "Don't worry, even if mother enjoys her life in the palace, she will not forget you outside the palace.
"In my heart, you are my child, and I will always love you the most..."
Halfway through her words, Mrs. Su suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Zhao Ming, what's wrong with me?"
Su Zhaoming looked at her coldly without saying a word.
The poison took effect too quickly, and Mrs. Su collapsed weakly. She looked at Su Zhaoming and said, "Hurry up and get someone to save my mother."
"If you can't be saved, mother, you can go in peace. I will enjoy the rest of your good days for you." Su Zhaoming's voice was cold.
"Is it you?"
Mrs. Su looked at Su Zhaoming in amazement. She never expected that the son she had loved for most of his life would do such a cruel thing to her!
Her eyes widened, filled with confusion and unwillingness, "Why...why? You are the one my mother loves the most...how could you bear to do this to me?"
Su Zhaoming squatted down with a cold look in his eyes.
"Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. From the moment you sold my sister, I knew you weren't fit to be a mother. One day, you'd abandon me and abuse me."
"I just didn't expect this day to come so soon. Unfortunately, I'm not as foolish as my sister. I know how to strike first."
Mrs. Su laughed. She never thought that her beloved son would be such a beast.
Blood continued to flow from the corner of her mouth. The severe pain and cramps were unfamiliar to her, and she knew she was not going to survive.
She stared at Su Zhaoming intently, and red blood flowed from her eyes.
Su Zhaoming was frightened by this horrific scene and wanted to get up and leave, but his mother grabbed his sleeve.
She held on to her last breath and begged him, "Can I, let me say one last word to you?"
Su Zhaoming could hardly hear her voice, but seeing the pleading in her eyes, he still endured the discomfort and leaned over to put his ear close to her.
Madam Su seized the opportunity and used the last bit of her strength to stab the dagger she had prepared long ago into his heart.
She originally thought that if Su Zhaoming didn't agree to her, she would pretend to do it and cut him with a knife.
Firstly, he wanted Su Qingli to see his determination to treat everyone equally, and secondly, he wanted to use a cruel trick to make Su Qingli soften her heart and let them, mother and son, stay.
But now she just wants to take Su Zhaoming away and not let this beast stay with Su Qingli.
Su Qingli couldn't do it, so she, as a mother, took over.
This was the first and last thing she did for her daughter.
"Qingli...it's your mother who has let you down."
The news of the two people's death in the palace soon reached Fu Xuechen's ears.
He knew that all this was Su Qingli's doing. Even though he was used to the ups and downs and intrigues in the court, he still couldn't help but tremble.
The once gentle and kind Su Qingli was so cruel to her family.
After dealing with her family, her next target would probably be herself.
Qian Jue looked at Fu Xuechen's absent-minded appearance and thought about what Su Qingli had done recently. Every single thing was beyond his imagination.
Such a cruel and vicious woman is no longer the Miss Su she used to be.
Risking Fu Xuechen's death, he voiced his dissatisfaction with Su Qingli for the first time, "Your Majesty, the Empress has gone mad. Who knows what she will do in the future? If you keep her around any longer, I'm afraid the next person in danger will be... you."
Hearing this, Fu Xuechen stopped thinking and rebuked him coldly, "If I hear you say anything bad about the Queen again, you will be beheaded."
"Your Majesty... please think twice!" Qian Jue knelt down and begged.
"It's not your turn to interfere in my affairs!" Fu Xuechen's face turned cold as he ordered, "Go and cover up this matter. Don't let it affect the Queen. Also, when you go to the Ministry of Personnel, you don't have to serve me anymore."
Qian Jue's face suddenly turned pale. He never thought that he would lose the qualification to serve in front of the emperor just because he said something bad about Su Qingli.
These two people are simply crazier than each other!
It is difficult to persuade a dying person with kind words.
He said no more, just stood up and left resolutely.
When Fu Xuechen stepped into Kunning Palace, Su Qingli was sitting at the table eating pastries, looking in a good mood.
If he hadn't heard from the palace maid that Su Qingli had already learned about the death of her mother and brother, he would have almost thought that she was still unaware.
He walked quietly in front of her and stared at her for a while, with infinite complexity surging in his eyes.
Is she really happy doing this?
Su Qingli saw him and forced a smile, "Why are you here? Are you done with government affairs?"
"I went to see the bodies of your mother and brother. They...died miserably." Fu Xuechen looked up at her, not missing any subtle expression on her face. "Are you sure you don't want to see them off for the last time?"
"What a pity! I clearly invited them to the palace to enjoy a good life, so why do they want to kill each other?" Su Qingli put down the cakes, looking very regretful.
She was already used to wearing a mask, and Fu Xuechen could hardly see any flaws on her face.
It was not until his eyes fell on her slightly trembling hands that his heart, which had been suppressed to the point of suffocation, was able to breathe for a moment.
"Ari, if you're sad, or... regretful, you can vent it in front of me. You don't have to force it."
Su Qingli laughed out loud and looked at him in confusion, "Regret? Why should I regret? Do you think I killed them?"
"Did you know that Qi Jinqian hanged himself that night after meeting you?" Fu Xuechen pursed his lips, his eyes burning. "He had already packed his belongings and was preparing to travel to the border."
It was after seeing her that her mother and younger brother killed each other and died tragically in the palace.
She knows how to use words to accurately stir up the darkest weaknesses and hatred in people's hearts.
"So what? Do you think I killed them all?" Su Qingli stood up suddenly, her eyes filled with pain and pleasure.
At the end, he chuckled.
Fu Xuechen looked at her who looked so strange and abnormal, and quickly stood up and took her hand. The touch of her hand was so cold that his pupils shrank.
He said nothing more, but held her in his arms lovingly.
"Ari, these things are in the past. Let's not talk about them anymore."
Su Qingli leaned in his arms, her whole body shaking uncontrollably, as if something was about to burst through her head.
She closed her eyes, and pain and despair surged through her limbs like a tide.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, she just kept repeating it with trembling lips.
"I didn't kill them."
"I don't……"
As she was speaking, she fainted completely in Fu Xuechen's arms.
