This is the deepest question in Lu Hua's heart.
If she had ever let down Zhuang Mi and her son, then all this would be her retribution.
But, she gave her all, supporting them and their son to the top, and in return, why did she end up like this?!
She is unwilling!
I'm not willing to give in!
"It's your fault that you're too powerful! Everyone has to listen to you. You're putting pressure on us, mother and son, to the point where we can't breathe. How can we ever get out of this situation?" Perhaps knowing that her fate was already decided, Zhuang Mi calmed down.
Compared to the emperor who had almost lost his mind on the ground, she was indeed admirable.
"Lu Hua! Even if you turn into a ghost, I'm not afraid!"
"Aren't you very powerful? You think everyone is under your control. Now I will let you see that I am not! I was not in the past, I will not be in the future, even if I die, I will not be like this!"
She had been competing with Lu Hua all her life. She was competing with him when she was a concubine, and she was still competing with him when she was the empress dowager. But the hateful thing was that Lu Hua never compared with her from beginning to end!
In Lu Hua's mind, he was not even an opponent!
Why?!
She was also the late emperor's woman, the emperor's mother. Why did Lu Hua always treat her with such self-proclaimed kindness?!
She just wanted to let Lu Hua know that an ant can also kill an elephant!
"Mother, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong!" The emperor suddenly got up from the ground and rushed towards the group of snakes. He thought Lu Hua's ghost was there!
"Please forgive me! My mother told me to do all these things. It wasn't me, it really wasn't me!" He cried miserably, without any of the dignity of an emperor. He wanted to kowtow to the snakes directly, "Mother, please let me go! Let me go!"
"What a useless fool!" Zhuang Mi was furious. How could she have given birth to such a useless thing!
Shen Ruoyan watched coldly from behind. Zhuang Mi was still shouting at her to come out if she had the guts. Even if she turned into a ghost, she would still compete with her...
"Jealousy can make a person lose their mind. There's no reason for it. I thought she would come to her senses when she was about to die. How ridiculous."
She turned around and walked out slowly.
The snakes behind them, as if receiving some kind of command, slowly crawled towards Zhuang Mi and her son...
Soon, screams rang out one after another. Behind Shen Ruoyan was endless darkness, but in front of her was a bright light!
Before Meng Su's army reached Shengjing, it was intercepted by the King of Huainan and the rebel army.
Emperor Mengsu thought he had the real defense map, and despite all the advice, he insisted on taking down Dasheng. However, at the last moment, he was caught in a trap!
At the beginning, Shen Ruoyan told Qin Xiang that he would use the defense map to provoke internal strife within Meng Su.
But the method is not the same as before.
She would not make the same mistake again, and she would be on guard against even Prime Minister Qin.
Therefore, the initial verification made Emperor Mengsu completely believe in the authenticity of the defense map, and he led his army south, ready to take down Dasheng in one fell swoop.
On the other hand, the King of Huainan and the rebel army joined forces in advance according to the original plan, ambushed the route that Meng Su's army had to pass, and completely counterattacked!
The reason why the rebel army was able to rise so quickly was because the King of Huainan sent people to support them.
They staged a play and successfully deceived everyone, and Shen Ruoyan was the liaison in the middle and knew everything about it.
The emperor and the empress dowager were found in a secret passage, having committed suicide.
He left behind an edict of abdication, saying that he was without virtue and unworthy of being emperor. He abdicated the throne to the King of Huainan, thus leaving no regrets and apologizing for his sins before dying.
After the King of Huainan ascended the throne, the Marquis of Changning's Mansion had the merit of following the king, and for a time, it became a rising star in Shengjing.
Lu Yan is extremely busy every day, and the new crown prince Song Huainan often visits him, which makes him helpless and amused.
Shen Ruoyan lay in the recliner, looking at the newly opened osmanthus flowers in the yard, immersed in the refreshing floral fragrance.
Everything finally returned to its original point.
The mountains and rivers are safe.
The criminal has been executed.
Her mission was accomplished, and she had no regrets in the future.
Mrs. Lu’s Buddhist temple was demolished, and another one was added to Shen Ruoyan’s house——
"Originally I was a guest who would never return home, but because of the muddy wine I stayed in the world."
