After all, feelings will inevitably fade away if there is no response, and eventually disappear with the wind.
This is a scene I don't want to see.
So she decided to find a substitute to continue provoking Shen Zhao and to keep working for her.
This person is Lin Feng.
In this way, she was subconsciously telling Shen Zhao: Do you want to win my favor? Then work harder. Only in this way will you have a chance to gain my favor.
However, after Shen Zhao was killed by her own actions, for a long time, out of fear and guilt, coupled with the increasingly worsening national situation, she gradually regarded Lin Feng as Shen Zhao's support.
After all, the ideal Shen Zhao in her heart was someone like Lin Feng, who was always by her side, capable yet humble, begging for her pity.
If Shen Zhao had already become like Lin Feng, she would have kicked Lin Feng, that good-for-nothing, away without hesitation.
But since Shen Zhao is dead, she can only subconsciously regard Lin Feng as the tamed Shen Zhao.
Therefore, feeling that she owed Shen Zhao a lot, she allowed Lin Feng to empty the national treasury time and time again, which eventually led to the collapse of this huge empire, which had only risen for thirty or forty years, in front of the Divine Martial Empire founded by Lin Feng.
But how did Su Yunying figure it out?
How did she pinpoint her truest thoughts so incisively?
Su Yunying continued, "Did I guess right? I have no idea what happened between you two afterwards."
But I was, after all, a female empress in the common people's land for a few years, so I can guess what you're thinking.
It must be that Brother Shen probably discovered your dirty schemes.
They are gradually slipping out of your control and can no longer be manipulated by you for greater benefits.
And you also clearly realize that Brother Shen will no longer be as obedient to you as before.
So, from that moment on, Brother Shen was no longer of any use to you.
You then took the opportunity to develop the idea of getting rid of Brother Shen.
As for how to do it? I think the only way is...
The first step is to eliminate those in the court who most support Brother Shen, one by one.
That way you can kill Brother Shen without any worries.
boom--
These words were like a thunderbolt, instantly causing Yu Xiyan's mind to ache terribly, as if a long-sealed and altered memory had been awakened.
In my memory—
On the eve of Gu Jingyan's departure to take up his post in Yunzhou, Yu Xiyan personally poured him a cup of wine before his departure.
"Cousin, I wish you all the best."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Only after seeing Gu Jingyan down the wine in one gulp did a faint, cold smile appear on Yu Xiyan's lips.
A month later, news came that Gu Jingyan had drowned on his way to take up his post.
Also killed were Gu Jingyan's family members and entourage.
At the same time, Yu Xiyan ordered the palace guards to eliminate all the coroners who participated in examining Gu Jingyan's body, along with everyone who knew the secret.
"No, that's impossible!"
Yu Xiyan covered her head, her face full of disbelief. Her cousin Gu Jingyan's death was actually orchestrated by her?
The next memory.
Yu Xizhao, the younger brother, was surrounded and intercepted by a large group of guards. Finally, with nowhere to go, he retreated to the edge of a cliff and looked incredulously at Yu Xiyan, who was approaching him step by step.
"Royal sister, are you really going to be so heartless as to kill me as well?"
Yu Xiyan looked at him coldly, her eyes showing no trace of the warmth that should exist between family members.
"By imperial decree, Prince Jing, Yu Xizhao, has committed treason and his conspiracy has been exposed. Feeling ashamed of his ancestors, he has committed suicide by jumping off a cliff to preserve the dignity of the royal family. Considering his past contributions to the royal family, he is hereby granted a posthumous title.
After speaking, Yu Xiyan turned away with a flick of her sleeve.
"No, Yu Xiyan! Are you really so heartless? If I had known this would happen, I should have advised the Prince of Wu (Shen Zhao) to leave you sooner..."
"Ah... I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
Before Yu Xizhao could finish speaking, she was thrown off the cliff by the guards.
Do I need to remind you what to do?
Subsequently, five hundred guards at the cliff edge committed suicide to protect the safety of their families and keep the secret.
Three days later, Yu Xizhao's remains were found at the bottom of the cliff; they were completely shattered and unrecognizable.
The official statement was that the guards encountered fierce resistance while pursuing Yu Xizhao and were all killed in action.
"No, that's impossible, it's all fake!"
Yu Xiyan shook her head in pain.
However, the next memory unfolded in my mind—
In a corner of the palace hall, Yu Guopu, whose limbs were crippled, was being strangled by a group of eunuchs with white silk.
"What are you going to do, Xiyan? What exactly are you going to do?!"
"Father, thank you for finding such a good husband for me."
But lately, my good husband doesn't seem to listen to me as much anymore.
A few days ago, just before he set off to conquer the ancient ruins, he actually dared to ignore my request to find the Azure Dragon Mirror.
This is the first time he has refused me! Good heavens, how dare he disobey me!
Since that's the case, I absolutely cannot keep anyone who has escaped my control by my side as a threat to my throne.
But Father and Mother always trust and protect him so much. If you were here, I would never have been able to do anything to him.
This puts me in a very difficult position. Therefore, for the sake of the Great Yin Dynasty, I have no choice but to ask Father to take his leave first.
After speaking, Yu Xiyan glanced around, and the eunuchs around her immediately exerted force and snapped Yu Guopu's neck.
Her eyes showed no warmth, only the ruthlessness and cruelty of those in power.
"No, it's all fake. How could I, how could I kill my own father? It's all fake, it's all fake..."
