The time-traveling girl crawled to the prison door, grabbed it with both hands, and said sarcastically, "You are really kind to Yang Xin. It's a pity that I don't know where she went."
At this point, the time-traveling girl paused and said quietly, "The Emperor is so kind to everyone, but he's so cruel to the heroine whose heart and eyes are filled with you. How ridiculous."
"It seems that you are really crazy and talking nonsense."
"Your Majesty, if you continue to listen, you will know whether I am talking nonsense or not."
The time-traveling girl stood up at the prison door and stared at the third prince.
"Does the Emperor know who the little girl in the painting is that he has been looking for?"
Seeing the Third Prince's eyelashes twitch, the time-traveling woman smiled, "That person is in the Emperor's harem, and the Emperor didn't recognize her?"
As if remembering something, the Third Prince's hanging hands trembled slightly, "Is it Concubine Xue?"
"Hahaha," the time-traveling girl laughed a few times before she stopped laughing. "Yes, it was Concubine Xue. She was worried that I might do something bad to you, so she entered the harem despite Marquis Qingyuan's objections. She wanted to protect you."
"By the way, the emperor has been suffering from insomnia for a while. The person playing the piano outside is also Concubine Xue, but I am impersonating her."
Although it was such a shameless statement, the time-traveling girl acted as if she was talking about some achievement worth showing off.
"What a touching love story! But Your Majesty, you are so heartless and have betrayed the love of this poor little Concubine Xue."
Thinking of all the kindness Concubine Xue had shown him, the Third Prince felt as if his heart was being pierced by needles, making him breathless with pain.
At that time, he just thought that she was just like the other women in the harem, trying to show her affection.
"Your Majesty has something to say to me now, right?"
The time-traveling woman looked at the Third Prince, whose face was gloomy. "Before her death, Concubine Xue was unable to see the Emperor for the last time. I heard from the palace servants that she even burned the portraits she had painted for the Emperor and the amulets she had obtained over the years."
"Your Majesty, how heartbroken was Concubine Xue that she died without caring about her family?"
The third prince could no longer hold his body still. He raised his hand and grabbed the prison door tightly, his eyes bloodshot.
"How do you know?"
This person and Concubine Xue are not on good terms, and everyone in the palace knows it, so Concubine Xue couldn't possibly tell her this.
Then why does she know so much about Xue Fei?
"Why?" The time-traveling woman looked at the Third Prince with pity. "Because your world is just a novel. You may not know that novels are just like the storybooks here, created by others."
"So I'm the male lead and the female lead is Xue Fei?"
In the past, the Third Prince would have thought she was talking nonsense, but since this person could come to this world from other places, he found it much easier to accept other more absurd things.
"Yes, from saving your life as a child to reuniting and getting married and growing old together as adults, this is the ending the author arranged for you. Of course, the premise is that I haven't traveled through time. If I did, I would be the protagonist."
"You, the one who kills innocent people, are the protagonist?"
The Third Prince looked at her with disgust.
"Yeah," the time-traveling girl said complacently, as if she didn't notice the disgust in his eyes. "Isn't the heroine dead? I've done what I wanted to do, stepping on the protagonist. If I'm not the protagonist, what am I?"
At first she thought she was just an ordinary character in the film, but many things went smoothly afterwards, as if with divine help.
But she failed to succeed in becoming the queen, which made her very frustrated.
"Since you know everything, then the deaths of my father, my brothers, and my sister were also yours?"
"That's right," the time-traveling woman recalled her thoughts. "The late emperor died suddenly due to poisoning by your mother and I. We also tricked the crown prince into committing suicide. And the fourth prince was that idiot. As for your two younger sisters, they are just stupid. You can't blame anyone else."
In her mouth, human lives were spoken as lightly as if they were cats and dogs.
Reason suppressed the Third Prince's impulse to strangle the time-traveling woman's neck, and he calmed his sad mood.
"You shout about the equality of all people and say that the ancients treated human life like grass, but in fact, you are the one who despises the lives of others."
"They are just some unimportant characters. Why should the emperor be angry?"
The time-traveling girl looked unconvinced and said, "Besides, if it weren't for me, Your Majesty, you wouldn't be the emperor. You would just be a pitiful prince."
"You're so dismissive of us, characters created by others, yet you're obsessed with the position of Queen. How ridiculous!"
These words seemed to have touched the time-traveling girl's sore spot, and she glared at the third prince.
"I helped you become the emperor, so shouldn't I be the empress? Why is it so easy to deal with others, but not you?"
She clearly understood everyone, but even though she had put all her heart and soul into the person in front of her, this person still didn't take her seriously.
"I don't need your help."
The Third Prince's thoughts drifted away. He actually wished that his father and brother were still alive. Before, he always felt that his father favored His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he only knew it after he sat on the throne.
How lonely and unbearable it is to be in a high position without any family around you.
"I've said so many things I shouldn't have said. Is the Emperor planning to kill me to make it quick?"
The time-traveling girl sighed, "You've already locked me up for two years. Why should we torture each other?"
"Killing you would be too easy for you,"
The Third Prince glanced at the dim sky prison and said, "Since you don't know where the real Miss Yang has gone, you will slowly suffer here."
Seeing him about to turn and leave, the time-traveling woman said anxiously, "Your Majesty, don't you want to know your identity?"
The third prince stopped and did not look back.
"Everything else is your doing. This must be your doing as well. I am actually the Emperor's child."
Hearing his confident tone, the time-traveling girl raised her hands and clapped.
"As expected of the male protagonist, you are so smart. If the female protagonist was as smart as you, she wouldn't have died, because I never thought of killing you, the emperor."
"If you want to kill me, you have to have the ability to do so."
"Your Majesty, do you know why Concubine Xue's eyes look like that?"
Seeing that the Third Prince did not seem to be upset by her words, the time-traveling girl continued to provoke him.
"It was because Concubine Xue prayed for your safety and happiness that she didn't see her mother for the last time. Doesn't the Emperor feel guilty at all?"
"I didn't become the queen, but I am the protagonist. Even if you become the emperor again, you can't change the current ending. You can't change the current ending, hahaha..."
Looking at his obviously stiff body, the time-traveling girl knew that she had achieved her goal.
She just wanted to make this person unhappy so that she could calm down the frustration in her heart.
Only after leaving the Ministry of Justice's Prison did the time-traveling woman's laughter disappear from his ears. The Third Prince could no longer hold on to his tense body. He staggered, raised his hand to hold the wall beside him, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood.
Zi Yang, who was waiting at the door, hurried forward to support him.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
