Chapter 425: Strong outside and infatuated inside male protagonist x beautiful and cruel reborn female protagonist 19

Liao Mu found a death row prisoner to experiment with the medicine given by the witch. After just one night, the prisoner died quietly without any struggle or pain. The doctor could not diagnose why the prisoner died. It was as if he had stopped breathing while sleeping.

"Your Majesty, this medicine is exactly the same as the one the witch gave you."

Xie Chengyu narrowed his eyes, curled his lips and said, "Not bad, it seems that this witch can cooperate, but I still want to see if her disguise skills are as amazing as she said."

On the third day, there was no sign of the witch. Xie Chengyu frowned and asked Liao Mu behind him, "Do you think she doesn't plan to cooperate with me?"

"Master, I have always wanted to cooperate with you, but you have been testing me." The voice came from Liao Mu's mouth behind Xie Chengyu.

Xie Chengyu suddenly turned his head, looked at Liao Mu in disbelief and said, "Are you a witch?"

The witch smiled triumphantly and tore off a layer of human skin mask from her face. Then there was a crackling sound from her body and her bones shrank in an instant.

Xie Chengyu stood up and looked at the witch who had restored her original appearance. He laughed out loud, "Hahahahaha, you are really worthy of being a witch. You really make me look at you with new eyes."

The witch threw the human skin mask on the table and sat down by herself. "My Lord, since we have agreed to cooperate, do you have any plans? Don't forget that my goal is only Princess Zhao."

"Don't worry." Xie Chengyu personally poured a cup of tea for the witch, and then sat down. "The Queen Mother and my sister will be back in a few days."

"Father will definitely hold a palace banquet, and I will work with my sister to help. You just need to find a way to become the person Father loves the most, and I will take care of the rest."

After Xie Chengyu finished speaking, he handed a portrait to the witch.

The witch opened it and looked at it and said, "As expected of the Emperor's woman, she is so beautiful."

"When the palace banquet is held, send someone to No. 16 Wanshui Hutong to inform me."

"Master, have you really decided to let her seduce the emperor?" Liao Mu was still a little scared of Xie Chengyu's plan. After all, if the truth came out, all of us would die.

Xie Chengyu had already prepared for a fight to the bitter end, and said calmly, "What if it doesn't work? Rather than living in such a miserable state, I might as well take a chance."

The Queen Mother and Princess Wencheng returned to Beijing.

The Queen Mother has not returned since she left the palace two years ago, and at most she only writes a letter occasionally to keep in touch.

Princess Wencheng looked at the palace she had been away from for a long time and asked sarcastically, "How is my mother? How is my brother?"

The maid guarding Princess Wencheng's Yu'an Palace heard this and said, "Your Highness, the Queen has committed a serious crime and has been banished to the cold palace by the Emperor and has since disappeared."

Princess Wencheng opened her eyes wide, obviously shocked by the news.

"As for the prince, he was confined by the emperor for three months. However, after the confinement was lifted, the prince was not favored by the emperor and was ignored by the emperor for a while."

Princess Wencheng stood up angrily and said, "Is that the Aunt Qiao that my brother wrote to me about?"

The maid nodded and said, "Yes, Princess, His Royal Highness King Cheng is very aggrieved, not to mention that Miss Qiao is now the Princess of Zhao."

Princess Wencheng sneered and said with a cold look, "Help me change my clothes. I want to go find my brother."

Prince Cheng never left the palace, not even to welcome the Queen Mother. He deliberately wanted to create this atmosphere to let the Queen Mother and Princess Wencheng know how wronged he felt as the Emperor's son.

"Your Highness, Princess Wencheng is here."

Xie Chengyu curled his lips in triumph, then put on a decadent look, sat at the table and said, "Princess, please come in."

Princess Wencheng hurriedly opened the door and saw Xie Chengyu holding a wine jar and pouring wine.

"Brother, stop drinking. How did you become like this?"

Xie Chengyu laughed like crazy, "Haha, my sister is here, don't worry about me, let me drink. I will feel better only when I drink too much."

Princess Wencheng lowered her eyes, her eyes were red, "Brother, you have been wronged, how could father treat mother like this to you?"

"Now that my mother is missing, doesn't my father know to send someone to look for her?"

Xie Chengyu took another sip of wine and said, "Looking for her? Father has completely forgotten about Mother's existence."

"Do you still remember Aunt Qiao'e?"

Princess Wencheng nodded and said, "Remember, Aunt Qiao'e is not with my mother?"

Xie Chengyu sneered, "Prince Zhao killed Aunt Qiao'e, and when father found out, he said nothing, as if nothing had happened."

Princess Wencheng was just sad before, but now after hearing what Xie Chengyu said, she finally became angry, "Father is too partial. No, brother, we must think of a way to deal with Prince Zhao."

The knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the brother and sister. Xie Chengyu said casually, "Come in."

A woman dressed as a maid came in with a plate of cakes in her hands and placed them respectfully on the table.

Just as the maid was about to turn around, Princess Wencheng said, "Wait a minute."

The maid stopped, lowered her head and took a step back, as if she was very afraid of Princess Wencheng.

Princess Wencheng looked at the maid's figure, narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Raise your head."

The maid slowly raised her head, revealing a face that was full of love and care for the whole country.

Princess Wencheng was shocked and exclaimed, "It seems"

"Brother, I know how to deal with King Zhao."

Xie Chengyu's eyes flashed with success and he said, "How can we deal with this? Father only favors Prince Zhao. Who told him that he is the son of Empress Xianwen?"

Princess Wencheng sneered sarcastically, "Oh, so what about Empress Xianwen? She has been dead for many years."

"Brother, if someone who looks exactly like Empress Xianwen appears, will father still favor Prince Zhao?"

Xie Chengyu stood up shakily, waved his hands and said, "Sister, stop joking. Where can we find someone who looks exactly like Empress Xianwen?"

Princess Wencheng pushed the maid in front of Xie Chengyu and said, "Look, this is just one, brother. How come you didn't notice that she looks so much like Empress Xianwen's maid?"

Xie Chengyu carefully looked at the maid in front of him, and after a while he slapped his forehead and said, "Am I dazzled? Why do I seem to see Queen Xianwen?"

Princess Wencheng shook her head helplessly and said to the maid, "From now on, you will be called Lianyu. When I return to the palace later, you will follow me. Just listen to what I tell you to do."

Lian Yu and Xie Chengyu looked at each other secretly. Lian Yu bowed to Princess Wencheng and said, "I will obey your arrangements."
