Chapter 178 The Villain is the Imperial Advisor (31)



Is Ruan Qingchen's identity a mystery?

Chu Qingxuan slowly curved her lips into a smile as she played with the little trinket in her hand. Le Wuyou looked at Chu Qingxuan and felt that the Empress's smile was somewhat eerie.

"Alright, you can go now," Chu Qingxuan suddenly said.

Joy and carefree feeling, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Before Le Wuyou left, Chu Qingxuan instructed him, "Remember, before the truth comes out, no one is allowed to talk about Ruan Qingchen's matter, so as not to alert her."

"yes!"

Le Wuyou sighed inwardly. It seemed that these two would be enemies from now on.

Chu Qingxuan was left alone in Qingchen Palace, looking out at the moonlight.

"Ruan Qingchen, I hate betrayal the most."

If it weren't for the betrayal, she wouldn't be here.

Chu Qingxuan tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. When she finally drifted off, she dreamt of the past.

She dreamt that she was enduring excruciating pain in the God-Slaying Array, her blood mixing with her purple clothes, turning them purplish-black.

She was laughing at that moment, a laugh that was tinged with sarcasm, resentment, despair, and hatred.

Hatred consumed all other emotions, leaving only endless hatred in the end.

At this moment, Feng Chuli coldly watched her, watched her being torn to pieces, watched her being swallowed by the great formation.

Ultimately, it evoked a sarcastic smile.

The dream gradually turned black, and Chu Qingxuan on the bed was covered in sweat. After the dream disappeared, Chu Qingxuan suddenly sat up.

Chu Qingxuan was panting, feeling the moisture in the corners of her eyes.

She touched the corner of her eye, looked at the dampness on her index finger, and a sarcastic smile appeared on her lips.

She joked, "It seems to have had quite an impact; I even cried after dreaming about something like this."

The smile on her face disappeared, Chu Qingxuan got up, wiped the moisture from her eyes, and returned to her original state.

As the lady-in-waiting was doing Chu Qingxuan's hair and makeup, Chu Qingxuan stared at her elegant and beautiful self in the mirror and thought of her dream from last night.

It seems Ruan Qingchen had a huge influence on her, as she even dreamed of Feng Chuli.

Chu Qingxuan began to suspect that the villain and Feng Chuli were related.

She just didn't have any evidence.

evidence?

Ruan Qingchen's identity is very mysterious, but she has no evidence to prove that Ruan Qingchen has any ulterior motives towards her.

Chu Qingxuan rubbed her temples, hoping she was just overthinking things.

During the morning court session, Chu Qingxuan leaned lazily against her chair, her eyelids drooping, and her complexion was not good.

A courtier was speaking in the audience, but Chu Qingxuan didn't hear a word he said.

"Your Majesty?" the man called out to Chu Qingxuan after he finished speaking.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingxuan said calmly, "I know about this matter, so I will leave it to Jun Zilin to handle."

"Your Majesty, it is not appropriate to entrust the matter of the Crown Prince of Xuefeng Kingdom marrying the Eldest Princess to the Prime Minister."

"After all, the Prime Minister was previously the Princess's fiancé."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingxuan immediately woke up from her drowsiness.

"Is His Majesty ill?" Ruan Qingchen asked.

Chu Qingxuan said calmly, "It's alright."

"I have already made a decision regarding the eldest princess's marriage. I will not agree to marry anyone the eldest princess is unwilling to marry."

Lord Luo persisted, "Your Majesty, a marriage alliance between Tianqi Kingdom and Xuefeng Kingdom would be more beneficial than harmful!"

Chu Qingxuan scoffed, "I don't think so."

She stared at Lord Luo with a smile and asked in a low voice, "Or did the Snow Phoenix Kingdom give Lord Luo some benefits?"

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely not true!"

Lord Luo knelt down and hurriedly explained.
