Zhao Ying walked out of the imperial study in a daze, and after a few steps, he bumped into Zhao Xi head-on.
In an instant, surging, overwhelming hatred flowed through his limbs and bones and spread throughout his body.
He killed her Shangguan Shu.
Zhao Xi walked forward, frowned, looked at the red marks on her face, and said in a deep voice, "Did the emperor beat you?"
As he spoke, he tried to put his hand on Zhao Ying's face, but Zhao Ying coldly avoided it.
Zhao Xi took a deep breath, knowing that Zhao Ying was angry with him. He explained, "Shangguan Shu's death was not what I wanted. I..."
"Congratulations." Zhao Ying interrupted calmly.
"What do you mean?"
"Congratulations! You've successfully taught me that the hatred of killing one's wife and husband is irreconcilable."
Zhao Xi's face suddenly darkened.
Zhao Ying's voice choked with sobs, unable to contain the pain. "I can understand your hatred now. That's great. You're so kind. This is my real brother."
"Zhao Xi, I should have known who you were, but I had other expectations of you."
"How do you know that Qi Dongqiang was killed by Yue'er? The news of that day was blocked. How would you know? Unless you rushed over."
Zhao Xi paused for a moment, then his eyes became fierce and urgent.
"You already knew that Qi Dongqiang had kidnapped Yue'er, but you wanted to silence her for her, right?"
Zhao Xi looked at Zhao Ying's disheartened expression and listened to her questions, feeling heartbroken, but he couldn't refute a single word.
Zhao Ying was almost mad with regret. She lamented, "I treated you as my dearest, but you destroyed my family..."
Zhao Xi couldn't stand Zhao Ying's overwhelming resentment and anger. He said angrily, "Really? Do you think I'm your closest person?"
"It was you who hid my life story for that idiot Zhao Cong. You were the first to be ruthless to me!"
He stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Ying's shoulders excitedly, and demanded, "Zhao Ying, you keep saying that I've wronged you, but what about you? Have you ever been sincere to me?"
Zhao Ying slapped Zhao Xi across the face, a loud and clear slap. She wanted to tear him apart. "If it weren't for me, do you think Gongsun Yuda would have been able to enter the palace to report to the emperor? Do you think you could have restored your status so easily?"
Zhao Ying felt a sharp pain in his heart, a heart-wrenching pain.
Zhao Xi seemed to be frozen, staring at her in a daze.
It turned out that she had recognized him a long time ago.
She didn't try to hide his background; she helped him.
Zhao Xi felt as if the huge rock pressing on his chest had suddenly moved away, and his mind suddenly became clear. However, the next second, he glanced at Zhao Ying's indifferent expression, and his brows furrowed.
Zhao Ying closed her eyes in pain, "I was wrong, I was really wrong."
"I always felt that blood ties trumped everything else, but what did I get?"
"Zhao Xi, you can continue to hate me. I don't care anymore. From now on, I, Zhao Ying, will no longer be your sister..."
Zhao Ying left.
Zhao Xi, however, did not move.
He wanted to stop her and tell her that his brother was no longer angry with her and that she should not disown him. He would do better than Zhao Cong and Shangguan Shu. She was not afraid of being left without love or protection. He would protect her and love her from now on...
They must be the closest people in the world... They are siblings from the same mother!
However, my heart suddenly felt like it was bitten by something and the pain was unbearable.
He frowned in pain and bent down to hold on to the tree trunk beside him.
A passing eunuch came over to ask, "Is Prince Ding all right?"
Zhao Xi's facial features were all wrinkled together. When he heard the voice, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
…
Princess Mansion.
Shangguan Bailin suddenly sat up from the bed, his face pale and covered in cold sweat, looking frightened.
The servant outside asked, "Second Young Master?"
Shangguan Bailin stared at the darkness in front of him. He was in the princess's mansion.
Was that just a dream?
But this dream is so clear.
Shangguan Bailin said softly, "I'm fine."
Having said that, he lay down again, pulled the corner of the quilt tightly, and looked at the ceiling in confusion.
There are vague and confusing images in my mind, but it is all just one picture.
In the vast forest, two horses were tied not far away, leisurely eating grass and wagging their tails.
The setting sun shines obliquely, and the sky is filled with rosy clouds.
A handsome young man sat on a big rock with an indifferent expression.
In front of him, the man in brocade clothes and jade belt was looking down at him. He had slightly gray hair on his temples and looked somewhat similar to the young man, but he looked more cold and imposing. The man spoke in a low and hoarse voice.
"Bo Lin..."
"I know you hate me," the man said, his heart broken. "I hate myself too."
"Your mother is dead. I still couldn't keep her. It's a relief for her. She finally escaped from me."
"But it doesn't matter. I will still go find her."
"Are you worthy?"
The man was silent for a moment, then said solemnly, "I'm not worthy."
"But things have developed to a point where it's no longer what I wanted. Maybe you won't believe it, but something has manipulated me and changed me."
The young man sneered in response.
The man didn't care and explained, "At first, I wrote your mother's name on the edict to confer the title of empress, but in the blink of an eye, it became Zhao Yao. It seems that this is all destined."
"Over the years, I've searched for talented people, but none of them could do anything. But recently, a wizard named Zhuicong Mingda came and said he could change it."
"Bai Lin, now is not the time for you to be angry with me. I have no choice but to hand over the country to that bastard Zhao Ziyin. But I am here to hand over these million-strong army in the Southern Territory to you. After I die and break this curse, you can do what you want and avenge your mother and your brothers and sisters."
