Chapter 243

Xiao Ci's eyes turned red with madness.

"I said I didn't mean it, why don't you believe me?"

He admitted that part of what Xia Muyan said was true.

He did it.

But he really didn't want to kill Xia Muyan!

He didn't.

Xia Muyan had long been indifferent to his madness.

If she hadn't come to the lower world to experience the tribulation, her life would never have intersected with Xiao Ci.

There is the glory of a goddess in her soul. She

had long seen through the filth and darkness of Xiao Ci's soul.

She curled her lips and asked meaningfully: "Xiao Ci, you already knew that I am a goddess, right?"

Xiao Ci's eyes paused.

It was this brief pause that allowed Xia Muyan to glimpse the truth.

She smiled.

So that's it.

The goddess's tribulation was not a secret.

After all, she also has many competitors in the upper world.

Someone passed the news down, and there are many people who want her to fail.

Xiao Ci knew her identity, and she figured this out in the upper world.

She smiled and said, "When did you know my identity?"

Xia Muyan is a goddess, of course not a child of the Xia family.

Instead, she was picked up by General Xia on a snowy night.

When he saw her pink face, he liked her very much.

General Xia has three sons, but no concubine.

It happened that the fourth son was born at that time.

Xia Muyan's arrival fulfilled his dream of not having a daughter.

So he announced to the outside world that Xia Muyan was his daughter, and that she and his fourth son were dragon-phoenix twins.

From childhood to adulthood, Xia Muyan grew up under the love of her father, mother and brothers.

Although she was not General Xia's biological daughter, she received much more love than his biological children.

Her childhood was happy, joyful and unrestrained.

So she was sunny, cheerful, bright and proud.

Later, she followed General Xia back to the imperial city and met the miserable and unfavored prince Xiao Ci.

The righteousness in her bones burst out.

She protected Xiao Ci like an old hen.

She protected Xiao Ci as her own chick.

Xiao Ci did not answer Xia Muyan's words.

But silence is acquiescence.

Xia Muyan held her chin.

"Let me think... You should have known my identity long ago, and you have a deep understanding of my origins, and then when I returned to the imperial city, you appeared in front of me several times in the most vicious form."

Xia Muyan's eyes became interesting.

"Actually, you were not that miserable at that time, right? You were just acting for me."

The story of Xia Muyan and Xiao Ci is very cliché.

In a secluded corner of the palace, Xiao Ci, the unfavored prince, was being bullied by the eunuchs.

He was thin, his face was pale, and his eyes showed helplessness and despair.

However, all of this was accidentally seen by Xia Muyan, the daughter of the general, who was passing by.

A sense of justice surged in her heart, like a burning flame.

Xia Muyan stepped forward, shouted coquettishly, and stopped the eunuchs' evil deeds.

Her voice was firm and dignified, making people look sideways.

The eunuchs panicked and fled in all directions.

Xiao Ci raised his head and looked at Xia Muyan, his eyes flashing with gratitude and a glimmer of hope.

His lips trembled slightly, and he wanted to say something, but he seemed unable to speak.

Xia Muyan walked to his side and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Her eyes were gentle and firm, as if they could penetrate the pain in his heart.

Xiao Ci nodded lightly, tears welling up in his eyes.

Xia Muyan's heart moved, she reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him: "Don't be afraid, I'm here, they won't dare to bully you again."

Xiao Ci was grateful, he took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.

Xia Muyan looked at him and secretly decided to protect this poor prince and fight for his due respect and status.

Now thinking about it, everything at that time was too coincidental.

Eunuchs only bully people in dark corners.

How could they be on the main road she had to take to go to the palace? It was

just that she was young at that time and couldn't understand the twists and turns.

She and her father and brother grew up on the battlefield since they were young. They were loyal and brave, and what they hated most was bullying the weak.

And Xiao Ci was just that weak.

Xia Muyan's question once again led to Xiao Ci's silence.

He said nothing.

Xia Muyan didn't care.

Not saying anything was tacit approval.

Saying something was an excuse.

In fact, they all knew the truth like a mirror.

Xiao Ci's mother was a witch.

She was a witch with real skills.

However, a witch like Xiao Ci's mother could only tell fortunes three times in her life.

Once or twice was not a big deal.

But if she told fortunes three times, she would die.

She had told fortunes for the late emperor twice before her death.

One time saved his life.

Another time helped him seize the throne.

Later, the late emperor disliked her.

Why?

Because the late emperor wanted to take over the world.

He asked her to tell fortunes for him.

She didn't.

She also cherished her life.

The late emperor was furious and never set foot in her courtyard again. He

even ignored Xiao Ci, who was born to her.

But on her way to the imperial city, the witch concubine died. She died

of illness.

The life span of the witch people is very long and they hardly get sick.

How could she die of illness

? There is only one truth.

She told the third hexagram.

Now that I think about it, the third hexagram told by the witch concubine should be about the goddess.

She told the goddess Xia Muyan.

And...

whoever gets the goddess gets the world!

She wants to use her life to help Xiao Ci get the world.

The hexagrams told by the witches of the Wu clan are very accurate.

After all, they burn their own life to offer sacrifices to the heaven to get the hexagrams.

So what they get are all real hexagrams.

Xia Muyan is the goddess she had calculated.

In fact, many things are really simple.

Since Xiao Ci had tried his best to get the favor of the goddess, he should concentrate on loving the goddess and listen to her, and he would surely be able to unify the world.

But men, especially men who are emperors.

They want both.

They want both.

He became the emperor with the help of Xia Muyan, but he cares about other people's pointing and criticizing, and he must prove himself, and then he starts to do all kinds of stupid things.

When everything has become irreversible, he starts to regret and feel heartache.

This is mean!

Xia Muyan was too lazy to look at Xiao Ci's unpresentable look.

Waved his hand.

"Go, I'm sleepy."

A deep pain flashed in Xiao Ci's eyes.

He knew that Xia Muyan was restless and had to rest for a long time every day.

He couldn't disturb her.

He could only hang his head, like a bullied young wife, and turned away in distress.

In front of Xia Muyan, he was no longer a bloodthirsty emperor.

Xia Muyan sneered at his distraught back as he left.

There was no emotion in her heart.

Feeling sorry for a man will bring bad luck to her.

It was because of feeling sorry for this man that her family was broken up.

Now, she will not repeat the same mistake.
