Snow-covered trees, jade-like branches.
The ice and snow covered the entire Cold Palace, but could not hide its dilapidation.
A woman dressed in thin red sat on the dry well in the courtyard. The cold wind blew up her skirt and messed up her hair, but she didn't care about anything. She just lowered her eyes and gently coaxed the baby in her arms.
When Su Feiling arrived in her empress's phoenix robes with her palace attendants, this was the scene that greeted her...
Amidst the vast expanse of white snow, the alluring red, like the red spider lily, was dazzling.
Su Xuening!
Even in such a wretched state, she is still as beautiful as a snow fairy!
Her hands clenched unconsciously, and filled with jealousy, Su Feiling strode up to the woman and snatched the swaddling clothes from her hands.
"Baby!" The woman panicked when the swaddling clothes were snatched away and immediately lunged at Su Feiling, trying to take the baby back.
But Su Feiling threw the swaddled baby hard to the ground, and a clump of straw inside the swaddle was thrown out.
"Child!" the woman screamed frantically, throwing herself into the snow and clutching the bundle of straw and the swaddling clothes to her arms. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Mother is here!"
Seeing Su Xuening's madness, Su Feiling grabbed her hair and said, "Su Xuening, have you gone crazy enough? I'll say it again, your bastard child was used as a medicinal ingredient when it was born, and it's long dead!"
Su Xuening's pupils suddenly contracted, and she dug her hands into the swaddling clothes, touching the straw inside, her heart breaking.
Su Feiling became even more smug, raising her hand to stroke her face: "Using the heart of a newborn baby as a medicinal ingredient, this is a method from your master, the Divine Physician Luo's Medical Classic. And let me tell you, it was thanks to your master's medical classic and the heart of your bastard that Xuanyuan Yu was made crown prince by the late emperor, and now that he has ascended the throne, I have taken this position as empress!"
Su Xuening gritted her teeth, crushing the straw in her palm to powder.
The sharp nails grazed her delicate skin, and beads of blood covered half of her face, but they did not diminish her beauty in the slightest, which drove Su Feiling mad with jealousy.
"You are truly a sight to behold, so breathtakingly beautiful. No wonder Xuanyuan Yu is so infatuated with you. Even though you were defiled by so many beggars, he still wanted to keep you in this palace. It's a pity that your body is tainted and you've gone mad. No matter how much Xuanyuan Yu likes you, he has never slept with you. But fortunately, there is someone who has the same face as you, and his body is clean!"
Su Xuening's heart suddenly trembled, and she gripped the swaddling clothes tightly with both hands.
Su Feiling laughed triumphantly: "Have you all forgotten? I came here today specifically to tell you this good news. Xuanyuan Yu is still hung up on you, so I recommended your precious younger brother. And let me tell you, Su Yun'an is quite capable. He bewitched Xuanyuan Yu so much that he didn't leave his bed for three days and even skipped the morning court. What do you think will happen to such a bewitching man?"
Su Xuening glared angrily at Su Feiling, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Su Feiling loved seeing her like this. Her crimson lips brushed against her ear as she spoke the most vicious words: "He's dead, torn apart by five horses! It was I and the Empress Dowager who personally went to arrest him. Before tearing him apart, we publicly castrated him! Poor thing, only twelve years old and already dead without a complete corpse!"
Su Xuening's eyes were bloodshot, and the last glimmer of light in them disappeared, just as her only thought of living in this world had been shattered!
Seeing that Su Xuening still didn't react much, a wicked glint flashed in Su Feiling's eyes, and her sharp nail guards pinched Su Xuening's face again: "Let me tell you two more secrets. Your father didn't die at the hands of the Xiliang soldiers, but was killed by my father's scheme. And your mother didn't elope with the coachman at all, but was imprisoned by my father. Your once stunningly beautiful aunt has become my father's plaything. Want to save her? Hand over the military seal of the Su family army, and I can reunite you and your mother..."
A bloodthirsty red light flashed, and Su Xuening, who had been restrained, suddenly pounced on Su Feiling like a leopard, biting into her throat.
Su Feiling's words came to an abrupt halt as the sharp pain in her neck made her eyes widen in disbelief.
Before she died, Su Feiling's only thought was: Su Xuening really wasn't crazy!
The palace servants brought by Su Feiling rushed forward to try to pull Su Xuening away, but she seemed to be stuck to Su Feiling, and no matter how they pulled, they couldn't separate her.
The mouthful of blood couldn't quell Su Xuening's overwhelming hatred. She bit down hard on Su Feiling's throat, eating her flesh and drinking her blood. Despite the countless blows she received, she refused to let go.
Su Feiling!
Xuanyuan Yu!
The grudge she inflicted in this life, Su Xuening will never forget, not even in future lives!
She feigned madness to survive, but still couldn't protect her family. If there is an afterlife, she will never repeat the same path. Even if it means walking through blood, she will fight them to the very end!
Amidst the seamless blend of heaven and earth, a river of blood flowed beneath her crimson dress, yet she remained breathtakingly beautiful, leaving behind a final splash of vibrant color in this starkly white world.
