Chapter 452
Seeing that the Empress was not swayed by them, the Liang family and Jiang Yanche simply took advantage of her trust, eliminated the power the Regent had given her, controlled her, and colluded with Nan Yue to kill the Regent and destroy her country.
It was only then that the Empress realized that the person she trusted and loved most was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing.
And those who truly cared for her were killed by them!
Afterwards, Jiang Yanche took over all the forces in Fengyuan Kingdom, and soon plotted to bring down the Nanyue royal family. He ascended the throne as a man, renamed Tianhuang Continent to Shenglong Continent, abolished all women's privileges, and made men the supreme ruler, thus overturning the entire world.
Jiang Yanche did not kill the Soul Fragment, but instead made her his empress, saying that she was the one he loved most among all his women, and that no matter what, she would always be the only one by his side who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
However, this piece of trash turned around and took countless beauties into his palace, living a life of pleasure with them on both sides.
At that time, the fragments of his soul hated him to the core and all they wanted to do was kill him to avenge the Regent and the entire Fengyuan Kingdom. Of course, they didn't care how many women he had; they were just disgusted by him.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yanche is the male protagonist, possesses a system, and has become the master of the continent. Even though she endured humiliation and plotted for a long time, she still failed to kill him.
Jiang Yanche still didn't kill her, but he defiled her in front of all of Feng Yuan's former subordinates and made her watch her people die tragically before her eyes.
The fragments of the soul eventually lead to mental breakdown, and unable to bear it, they commit suicide.
Even so, Jiang Yanche still wouldn't let her go. He sealed her body in an ice coffin and used her name every day to show how deep his affection was. He also collected countless substitutes in her likeness to enter the palace and win her favor, causing countless concubines in the harem to hate her deeply.
Finally, a mad concubine stole her body and threw it into a pile of beggars, so that she would not find peace even in death.
To think that she, a dignified empress, lived a life that was nothing short of a joke, burdened with a blood feud yet failing to exact revenge, and subjected to such humiliation both in life and in death...
The resentment emanating from the fragments of the soul soared to the heavens, directly causing the collapse of the small world, leaving no choice but to reverse the process and start over.
Kill him!
Kill them!
kill! ! !
Wen Xin was almost overwhelmed by the overwhelming hatred of the fragments of the soul.
She quickly suppressed the roaring hatred, lest she be controlled by her resentment and turn into a murderous demon, which would be a huge disaster.
However, the emotional deception, the blood feud with his mentor, the hatred of the destruction of his country, and the resentment of dying with his eyes wide open—it's no wonder that his fragmented soul is filled with resentment.
She has three wishes: to make Jiang Yanche lose everything and suffer a fate worse than death, to protect Fu Chuxue, and to safeguard the Fengyuan Kingdom.
Wen Xin had no objection to this. Jiang Yanche deserved to die, and as the Empress of Fengyuan Kingdom, she had an unshirkable responsibility to protect her country.
As for Fu Chuxue?
Those involved are often blinded, while bystanders see things more clearly. Wen Xin, through the fragments of her soul's memories, witnessed the regent's actions...
He genuinely cared for the Empress.
It's true that he wielded immense power, but sometimes his methods were also bloody and cruel.
But at the pinnacle of power, danger lurks everywhere. If he isn't ruthless, how can he protect the little empress, himself, and the vast Fengyuan Empire?
At least, compared to the civil officials and nobles who only spout benevolence and morality but are actually selfish and self-serving, the Regent is the true hero who protects the Fengyuan Dynasty.
Such a war god who protected the country should not have met such a tragic end, being plotted against and killed on the battlefield by villains like Jiang Yanche.
It was her fault...
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
A cool, low voice, tinged with worry, reached her ears, and Wen Xin felt an overwhelming sadness and guilt that almost suffocated her. Tears streamed down her tightly closed eyes.
The Regent frowned deeply as he personally wiped away the Empress's tears. He then turned his head, his gaze, sharp as an ice blade, falling on the kneeling imperial physician who was trembling like a leaf. "What happened? Didn't you say Her Majesty would wake up today?"
"What medicine did you use? Why did it fail to alleviate His Majesty's pain?"
"Your Highness, His Majesty's condition has stabilized, and it is best for him to rest and recuperate gradually..."
The imperial physician very tactfully stated that it was normal to feel pain after an injury, and that painkillers should not be used indiscriminately.
The central message is: Her Majesty the Empress must bear the pain herself; they are powerless to help.
Wen Xin: "..."
The Regent's aura grew increasingly cold and terrifying. Just as he was about to order his men to drag the group of imperial physicians away and beat them half to death so they could experience what it felt like to bear pain on their own, he noticed that his hand was being gently pulled by a soft, weak little hand.
"Your Highness."
The girl's voice was barely audible, but the regent still heard it.
He turned his head and met the girl's tear-filled eyes, a glimmer of light appearing in his dark, cold phoenix eyes.
"Your Majesty, you're awake? How are you feeling?"
Wen Xin's pale lips trembled. "It hurts, Your Highness, it hurts so much."
The Regent was slightly taken aback, because he had never seen the young empress so vulnerable in front of him.
He knew she didn't trust him, didn't like him, and was extremely wary of him.
Therefore, in front of him, she always kept a straight face, pretending to be mature, like a little kitten. Even though her claws weren't sharp, she still insisted on scratching him, even if she couldn't hurt him.
The regent felt both helpless and amused by this.
But protecting her and protecting Fengyuan Kingdom was his vow and his responsibility as a subject.
Perhaps one day she will understand him, but more likely they will eventually reach the point of suspicion and murder between a monarch and a powerful minister.
This was the first time the little empress had shown him such tender, pitiful, and dependent emotions.
In a daze, the Regent realized that even though she was the most noble emperor of Fengyuan Kingdom, she was still just a fourteen-year-old girl.
The previous assassination attempt must have terrified her, right?
The Regent felt a chilling murderous intent towards those fools who dared to harm her.
He softened his voice, offering a few words of comfort to the young empress, then turned and coldly rebuked the imperial physicians, "Are you all kneeling like wooden stakes? Didn't you hear Her Majesty say she's in pain? Why aren't you here to examine Her Majesty?"
The imperial physicians: "..." But you didn't let us go over to see him just now. Without your order, would we dare to go forward?
Your Highness Regent, could you please be reasonable?
He was truly a treacherous minister who acted arbitrarily and was unpredictable.
Of course, faced with this powerful regent, the imperial physicians could only dare to be angry but not speak out, and obediently came over to take the Empress's pulse.
Tsk tsk, His Highness the Regent is doing a really good job of putting on a show. He clearly wants to kill the Empress and take the throne himself, but he can still look so worried and concerned as His Majesty.
It's certain that the current regent isn't ready yet and needs a puppet.
Catching a glimpse of the hidden expressions on the faces of the imperial physicians, Wen Xin inexplicably understood their thoughts: "..."
