After what happened last night, Zhai Jingxuan thought it through. She didn't want to marry Shangguan Chengjing. She was not lucky enough to enjoy this God-given pie!
The Zhai family had been dealt with, and she had her revenge. Now she was alone, so why not marry Shangguan Chengjing and become his wife in name only? She was of low status, had no family to rely on, and her husband didn't like her. How could she have a good life?
It’s better not to get married!
After her body was restored, she could travel around the country and enjoy herself.
Therefore, she had to clarify all the rumors about her and Shangguan Chengjing.
She talked a lot of nonsense, but it made Gao Qi happier and happier. She didn't understand why this boy was so happy.
Zhai Jingxuan's eyelids twitched and she had a bad feeling.
She immediately added, "You are not allowed to provoke Zhai Jingxuan either!"
These two bastards stay away from her!
Gao Qi's smile froze, and he stammered, "What do you care about me..."
"What did you say?"
"No, I didn't say anything."
Zhai Jingxuan took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Stay away from Zhai Jingxuan, she..."
“Big brother!”
Suddenly, a disheveled little beggar rushed over, hugged Zhai Jingxuan's legs and cried.
Zhai Jingxuan was stunned, and Gao Qi also frowned curiously.
"Big brother, I'm Er'er, big brother..."
Zhai Jingxuan suddenly opened her mouth and looked at the horrifying scar on the little beggar's dirty face, unable to speak.
Shangguan Qing'er, wasn't she sent away by the princess? Why is she here?
Not far away, Shangguan Chengjing, who was waiting for someone with his arms folded, caught a glimpse of Liu Er out of the corner of his eye, and heard her familiar voice again, his face suddenly turned pale.
Oh my god, she's still alive?
After my mother massacred the entire city, leaving no one alive, yet she is still alive?
…
The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
"father!"
Shangguan Chengjing found Shangguan Shu and told him the truth about seeing Liu Er. Shangguan Shu's eyes darkened and he asked, "Where is she now?"
"She cried and recognized Zhai Jingxuan, but when she saw me, she ran away in fear. I don't know where she is now, but I'm sure she's in Beijing."
"Dad, I always feel like something is wrong..."
Shangguan Chengjing was worried, "Do you still remember Yue'er's feelings?"
"She said that I would fall in love with Zhai Jingxuan at first sight, and that Zhai Jingxuan would fall off a cliff. And then there was all the other things that happened. We knew where things were going and wanted to avoid it, but it still went on the same path."
"She said Shangguan Qing'er would survive and cause trouble, but even the massacre of the entire city failed to kill Shangguan Qing'er!"
Shangguan Shu's pupils darkened, and then he smiled faintly, soothingly, "Chengjing, you are frightened by Shangguan Qing'er's torture. You are too suspicious."
Shangguan Chengjing was skeptical, "Really?"
Shangguan Shu rarely spoke so gently to his eldest son. "If you're worried, Dad will have Shangguan Qing'er found and dealt with immediately."
Shangguan Chengjing listened to Shangguan Shu's resolute tone, and his uneasy heart calmed down a little. He said, "In that case, thank you for troubling me, father."
Before Shangguan Chengjing left, Shangguan Shu reminded him, "There's no one left in the Zhai family. You should stay at the Princess's residence for a while. I'm sure no one will gossip about you."
Shangguan Chengjing was delighted and readily agreed, "Okay!"
After Shangguan Chengjing left, Shangguan Shu's calm face suddenly darkened.
His dark eyes were fixed on a spot in the yard in a trance.
Actually... he felt the same way.
He has had this feeling ever since "Zhai Jingxuan" fell off the cliff. If God controls the fate of mortals, how can a mere mortal change it?
Everything in Yue'er's heart was so tragic, he would never allow Zhao Ying and his children to repeat the same mistakes!
During that time, Zhao Ying's resistance and hatred towards him frightened him. He was afraid that he would make a big mistake that could not be undone in his previous life.
This was also one of the reasons why he agreed to divorce Zhao Ying.
He wanted to try and see if their fate could be changed.
Originally, according to Yue'er's thoughts, he and Zhao Ying should have never divorced.
But they succeeded in getting divorced.
That can be changed.
He also thought he was overthinking it.
At this time, he learned from Yue'er's voice that they were in a storybook and they were all people in the storybook.
Who wrote the storybook?
If someone writes it, can it be changed?
Or, if they defy fate and change it, they will eventually be corrected?
Zhao Xi is the ironclad evidence!
He was sure that he was not in the original storyline!
Yue'er doesn't know him.
Why did he appear?
Could it be that his appearance is to replace Zhao Yao, who was demoted to a commoner, and to create trouble for Zhao Ying?
The Queen was brought back because Yue'er's inner thoughts were exposed. In the original script, Yue'er was not included and the Queen was not brought back.
And now, the queen is under house arrest for no reason, which is no different from not being brought back.
Emperor Jianxi has been in poor health recently, and the newly appointed Concubine Gang has been serving him, so Zhao Ying cannot see the emperor.
It is unknown what kind of slanderous words Concubine Gang had offered, but Emperor Jianxi and Zhao Xi were looking for Zhao Zihua, hoping to borrow her spiritual energy to prolong their lives.
None of this matters. What matters is that the emperor has been secretly reducing his power recently.
He originally thought that after the Dali incident and the military achievements against the six southern kingdoms, Zhao Ying was already capable of competing with Zhao Xi.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was willing to punish him to protect Zhao Xi!
But there may be another deeper meaning, which is that... the emperor is acting.
It was impossible for the emperor not to see the connection between Concubine Ge and Zhao Xi. He was also certain that the emperor's sweetheart was the queen.
It is unreasonable for Concubine Gang to imprison the Queen.
If the emperor did this, it meant that he wanted to test Zhao Xi's background and see what he was going to do.
