Chapter 85: She seduced this king!
Seeing that he still couldn't hold back, Shen Ruoli sneered inwardly.
"Have you been waiting long?"
"Of course not!"
Xie Xuansong was being hypocritical, still stubborn even on the verge of death, "Why should I wait for you? Shen Ruoli, don't flatter yourself."
"Since you didn't wait for me, then I'll go back."
Shen Ruoli turned to leave.
Sure enough, as soon as she turned around, Xie Xuansong's urgent voice came from behind her, "Wait!"
Although he pretended to be calm, he couldn't help but get anxious when he saw that Shen Ruoli was really going to leave.
Therefore, Xie Xuansong could no longer maintain his airs.
He strode to the cell door, gripped it, and stared intently at Shen Ruoli. "You came here just to see me? Shen Ruoli, we've known each other since childhood, I know you fairly well."
"Since you're already here, why leave so soon?"
Shen Ruoli then turned to look at him.
Xie Xuansong felt guilty under her gaze and avoided her eyes.
"I know that my marriage to Song Xuerou broke your heart."
Even now, Xie Xuansong still harbored a glimmer of hope, believing that everything Shen Ruoli did was because she was heartbroken by him and Song Xuerou, and that she was deliberately retaliating against them.
So he softened his tone, "Li'er, it's my fault."
"But marrying Song Xuerou was also out of necessity! Because that woman lied to me! She lied to me that she was pregnant with my child! I had no choice!"
Xie Xuansong could lie without blushing or panting.
He was not only unreasonable but also arrogant, "You know that I have always valued loyalty and righteousness. If she is truly pregnant with my child, I cannot abandon her and the child!"
"Moreover, the Song family is pressing hard... As you know, Prime Minister Song has never been easy to deal with."
As he spoke, he reached out and tried to pull Chen Ruoli.
No sooner had he stretched out his hand than the jailer came over with a stick in his hand.
He looked at Xie Xuansong warily, "King Chu, you'd better watch yourself!"
Although Xie Xuansong has been imprisoned, Xie Yuanhe has not yet ordered his punishment; he is still a royal prince.
Unlike other criminals.
Therefore, even though the jailer really wanted to give him a few whacks, he had to suppress his impulse and kindly remind him.
Shen Ruoli took a small step back, thus avoiding Xie Xuansong's hand.
Even though Xie Xuansong didn't touch her, she still frowned and patted her arm with a look of disgust.
Upon seeing this, Xie Xuansong's face immediately darkened.
"Do you despise me that much?"
He suppressed his anger, "Li'er, it is I who have wronged you! But you also know my feelings for you! Do you think you can just let go of the feelings you have for me all these years?"
"Feelings? I wonder who's really trying to make themselves look good."
Shen Ruoli sneered.
She did have "feelings" for him.
But it wasn't love, only hatred that made me want to tear him to pieces!
"Your Majesty, it would be best if you didn't spout nonsense. After all, I am now the Crown Princess. I am Xie Xuanyin's person."
Are you blaming me?
Upon hearing this, Xie Xuansong said impatiently, "Li'er, are you blaming me for forcing you to marry into the Eastern Palace? Although you have no feelings for the Crown Prince, you are still the Crown Princess! From now on, you will be the Empress!"
"You must believe that once I sit on that throne, you will definitely be the Empress, not someone else's Empress, but my Empress!"
He was clearly somewhat insane, unafraid that his words would reach Xie Yuanhe or Xie Xuanyin's ears!
Shen Ruoli looked at him as if he were a madman.
The jailer stood to the side, looking astonished. "King Chu, be careful what you say!"
Good heavens, is he afraid he won't die fast enough?
"Li'er, I am sincere! Every word I just said is true! Everything I am doing now is for you! You must believe in my sincerity!"
Fearing that Shen Ruoli wouldn't believe him, he added anxiously, "Blame Song Xuerou!"
"She claims to be your best friend, but behind my back she's been seducing me!"
Knowing that Shen Ruoli is not easy to handle now, Xie Xuansong dared not treat her with the same arrogant attitude he once had.
In the past, whenever he was cold to Shen Ruoli, she would give up everything to please him!
But things are different now.
Over the past few months, Xie Xuansong has clearly noticed the changes in Shen Ruoli!
"Did the Crown Prince threaten you to do this?"
Xie Xuansong still refused to believe that Shen Ruoli genuinely wanted him dead!
He only thought that Xie Xuanyin had forced her to do this.
So he quickly shouted, "Li'er, as long as you tell me the truth, even if he is the Crown Prince, I will never let him go!"
"You're not going to let him go?"
Shen Ruoli seemed to have heard a funny joke!
She laughed coldly, "What gives you the right to not let Xie Xuanyin go?"
"I……"
"He is the crown prince, and what are you?"
Before Xie Xuansong could answer, Shen Ruoli sneered, "Are you a prisoner? Are you a death row inmate?"
The words "prisoner" and "death row inmate" shut Xie Xuansong up the words he was about to say!
His face was ashen, and he looked away in utter disarray, unable to utter a single word!
"Xie Xuansong, you think too highly of yourself! I was blind before, not seeing what kind of person you were. But now that I've gone this far, it means I'm no longer the fool you used to be, easily manipulated and controlled!"
Since she had come here to say a final goodbye to Xie Xuansong.
Then, Shen Ruoli will let him die knowing why!
“I don’t care when you and Song Xuerou got together, or whether she is pregnant with your child or not. I’m not angry about your betrayal! On the contrary, I’m very glad.”
Fortunately, God gave her and Xie Xuanyin a second chance at life!
“You know what you’ve done to me and Xie Xuanyin.”
"Li'er, what are you talking about?"
Xie Xuansong was completely baffled.
Although he felt guilty, he was even more confused!
He truly let Shen Ruoli down.
Because he's been using her all along!
But apart from that, he didn't do anything to her!
There is also Xie Xuanyin.
Although he desperately wanted to seize the crown prince position, he hadn't succeeded despite his years of effort. Recently, he had taken some action, but strangely, Xie Xuanyin seemed to have a precognitive ability!
Every time before he could even take action, Xie Xuanyin extinguished all his hopes!
Every time he planned to seize the throne, his plans were forced to fail in the womb!
Judging from what Shen Ruoli said, it seemed that he had done something heinous to the couple!
Xie Xuansong also felt wronged because he wanted to do everything, but he hadn't had time to do anything yet!
"Li'er, have you misunderstood something?"
Xie Xuansong hurriedly said, "I did nothing! I have indeed wronged you, and you can call me heartless and ungrateful, but I have no intention of harming you!"
Seeing his anxiety, Shen Ruoli felt a little better.
She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him expressionlessly. "Is it that you had no intention of hurting me, or that you didn't have time to hurt me?"
"You want to use me against Xie Xuanyin, and you're even willing to use my child with Xie Xuanyin to hurt him! Xie Xuansong, do you really think I don't know what you're thinking?"
She had barely finished speaking when she saw Xie Xuansong stare wide-eyed in shock!
His legs buckled and he knelt down, staring at Shen Ruoli in disbelief. "You...you knew everything?!"
