There is no doubt that he is the undisputed candidate for the next emperor that is widely expected by the entire empire.
Faced with such an outstanding and highly-regarded Qu Mu, many brothers did not even have the courage to compete with him, let alone fight for the supreme throne.
How could a humble being like Qu Can, who was despised and looked down upon everywhere, dare to have even the slightest unreasonable thought?
I can still remember the first time I met Qin Miao.
At that time, he was still young and ignorant, with a petite and weak body, but unfortunately he was bullied by a group of domineering princes and was beaten beyond recognition with a bruised face.
Just when he was in despair, Qin Miao came like a goddess descended from heaven and rescued him, thus escaping his predicament.
At that time, Qin Miao's close relationship with Qu Mu angered the emperor, who summoned her to the palace and gave her a stern warning.
You know, as the future heir to the empire, he should marry a woman of noble birth as his queen.
A casual cultivator like Qin Miao, whose background is unknown, would never be able to ascend to the supreme throne of queen.
Faced with the emperor's rebuke and warning, Qin Miao showed no fear and retorted righteously.
"Your Majesty is so powerful, why would you attack a mere fairy girl like me? Why not discipline your sons who bully the weak?
Your son wanted to come to me on his own, but you ignored him. How could you possibly embarrass or insult me? Do you really think everyone is your dog and should obey your scolding?"
After saying that, she waved her sleeves gracefully, turned around and walked away, leaving behind only a proud and independent back.
Qu Can, who was hiding in the dark and watching the whole process, was deeply shocked by the scene before him.
Qin Miao's free and unrestrained, proud and unyielding attitude was deeply imprinted in his young heart, making him unforgettable for a long time.
At the same time, the image of his father, who had always been high and mighty and majestic, collapsed in his heart in an instant and fell from the altar.
What made Qu Can even more ecstatic was that it turned out that not everyone in the world would unconditionally favor the eldest brother.
Recalling Qin Miao's gentle and soft look when she rescued him, he inexplicably felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction in his heart, as if the whole world became beautiful at this moment.
However, this brief joy did not last long. After all, Qu Mu was not the kind of person who would let things develop in a direction that was beyond his control.
He always acted decisively and announced it to everyone without hesitation.
"I just like Qin Miao!"
Such a straightforward confession shocked everyone.
Not only that, in order to be able to stay with Qin Miao forever, he did not hesitate to have fierce quarrels with his father many times.
The trigger of all this was the time when his father had a private conversation with Qin Miao without telling him.
As the conflict escalates, Qu Mu's determination becomes stronger.
In the end, he drove his own father down from the supreme throne and placed him under house arrest.
This makes him a powerless emperor who does not need to worry about anything and cannot interfere in management affairs.
Until the end of his life, he never interfered in their affairs again.
All this has become Qu Can's regret.
After many twists and turns, the person he thought he finally had fell in love with his brother who had everything.
But Qu Can, who was just a young boy at that time, didn't understand what the paranoid feelings in his heart meant.
It's really hilarious.
Once upon a time, as the emperor's son, his life was extremely miserable.
However, as fate would have it, when he suddenly became the emperor's brother, his life gradually became smooth.
All this is thanks to the woman named Qin Miao.
Because of Qin Miao's appearance, his brother Qu Mu, who had always been in a high position and was so busy that he could hardly stop, also became familiar with him.
As for Qu Can, with his own little thoughts in mind, he willingly became their little follower.
In this way, the days passed and he grew up.
Time flies, the years pass by like a shuttle.
Finally, on a sunny day, he was strolling aimlessly in the garden as usual.
Suddenly, he saw two figures hugging each other tightly and kissing each other passionately under the cherry tree in front of him.
When he looked closely, it turned out to be his brothers Qu Mu and Qin Miao!
At that moment, a strong feeling of jealousy suddenly ignited in his heart like a raging fire, quickly devouring all his rationality.
All the emotions that he had deliberately ignored in the past now surged out, making him unable to control himself.
At this moment, Qu Can finally woke up from his dream - it turned out that he had already developed a deep possessive desire for his imperial sister-in-law.
What I said before was just hoping that Sister Qin Miao would care about me more, but it was just an excuse to deceive myself.
In fact, what he really wanted was to completely replace his elder brother Qu Mu and become the only person in Qin Miao's heart.
Become the person Qin Miao loves, become the person who stands by Qin Miao, become the person who can hug her openly... and become the person who can be closer to her.
When he finally had the courage to face his true thoughts deep in his heart, the name Qu Mu became like an insurmountable gap between him and Qin Miao.
Because from that moment on, he realized very clearly that Qu Mu's existence had become the biggest obstacle for him to get Qin Miao.
For tens of thousands of years... he silently accumulated strength during that long period of time.
During these tens of thousands of years, he could only watch them being as affectionate and loving as ever in front of him.
Every day and night was a torment for Qu Can. His heart felt as if it was pierced by thousands of arrows, and the feeling of being torn apart by a knife never stopped for a moment.
In fact, he had already carefully planned and arranged everything.
Even if he had to face the two children with Qu Mu's blood, as long as he could stay with Qin Miao forever, he was willing to open his heart and accept them.
However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Just when he was overjoyed and thought that happiness was about to come, Qin Miao suddenly disappeared without a trace without any warning.
What is even more heartbreaking is that after much searching, it was finally confirmed that she had passed away...
This sudden bad news hit Qu Can's heart like a heavy hammer, completely destroying the last bit of faith and persistence he had held on to.
In an instant, he seemed to have lost his mind and fell into a state of extreme madness.
The madness that had been suppressed in my heart suddenly erupted like a volcano, and could no longer be restrained or controlled.
