Chapter 74: Xiao Yu doesn’t like children.
Hearing the words "Blissful Banquet", Yan Shu was stunned.
Only then did he remember what Xiao Yu said when he came here: "I have already killed him once in my previous life."
He immediately stared at Xiao Yu with wide eyes and asked in a trembling voice:
"I was so scared by you just now that I forgot to ask. You mentioned your past life. When did you remember your past life?"
And how could he be so sure that she was also reincarnated?
Looking at the girl's cat-like eyes widened in fear, Xiao Yu touched her soft black hair soothingly.
"After you drugged me and tried to escape from Xiao Palace, I suddenly had memories of two lifetimes."
"I discovered that you were different from your previous life, so I guessed that you, like me, also had memories of your past life."
Yan Shu's eyes widened instantly.
Xiao Yu actually had memories of his past life so early, so wouldn’t everything he did before be ridiculous in his eyes?
Moreover, Xiao Yu actually guessed that he was also reincarnated, since he had been hiding it from everyone.
Yan Shu suddenly became angry and looked at him with a puffed face.
"Then why didn't you say it? You have been pretending for so long!" After saying this, Yan Shu thought of the question Xiao Yu had just asked, and her brows suddenly frowned slightly.
"Did you just say that in my previous life at the Paradise Banquet, I offered you poisoned wine?"
Yan Shu thought about it carefully.
I vaguely remember that at the Paradise Banquet in my previous life, she seemed to have really poured a glass of wine for Xiao Yu.
But she had no idea that there was any poisoned wine.
So when Xiao Yu asked the question, Yan Shu also looked confused.
When Xiao Yu looked at the girl in front of him, he roughly realized that the poisoned wine plan in his previous life was indeed a conspiracy of the Chu family.
Thinking that he and Shushu had been fooled by Chu for two lifetimes, he suddenly felt a surge of violent anger in his heart.
Yan Shu finally reacted, and suddenly realized and asked him in surprise:
"Could it be that you thought I poisoned you, so you suddenly pushed me into the Colosseum to scare me, and that's why you kept me locked up in Baohua Palace?"
Yan Shu thought, no wonder Xiao Yu's temperament suddenly changed that day, and when he imprisoned her later, he often went crazy at her.
When Xiao Yu heard Yan Shu's question, deep regret flashed across his eyes. He held the girl tightly in his arms, buried his head in her neck, and said sorry in a deep voice.
At that time, he thought that the sweetness between them in the past was all Yan Shu's pretense of flattery.
After being betrayed twice, the extreme grief and despair made him want to take revenge on the girl in front of him. He wanted her to also taste the feeling of being abandoned, but he regretted it the moment Yan Shu was pushed into the Colosseum.
That's why the arrow was shot at the wolf's throat.
And Yan Shu was still immersed in her own thoughts.
Now there are reasonable explanations for advancing into the Colosseum and imprisoning him in Baohua Palace.
Then what about the fact that Yan Qingwan was finally named a beauty, and the cup of poisoned wine that Yan Qingwan gave her?
When Yan Shu thought of this, she immediately asked.
Xiao Yu, who was still immersed in regret, was stunned when he heard this, and even his narrow eyes widened in disbelief.
"Isn't that the poisoned wine you want to drink?" Xiao Yu looked at the confused girl in front of him, his dark eyes trembling.
Yan Shu immediately became angry when she heard this, and snorted unhappily:
"How could I possibly drink it myself? I don't want to die!"
"Yan Qingwan said you were going to make him a beauty! And she also said that you were the one who gave him the poisoned wine!"
"I was made to think that you were going to kill me. Even if I were to live my life again, I would still be trembling with fear every day that you were trying to flatter me and would take my life at any time." Yan Shu began to explain. When she thought about how she had been so cautious before just to stay alive, her eyes suddenly became sore again.
Xiao Yu looked at the aggrieved girl and felt a sudden pain in his heart.
"How could I possibly call someone else a beauty? I have no one else besides Shushu."
"When I came back from my tour of the palace, I learned of your death, but Chu lied to me, saying that you didn't want to be entangled with me and would rather die than be humiliated by me, so you took the poison to commit suicide." Xiao Yu's eyes were dark as he continued.
"Because you have always treated Miss Yan very well, she and the Queen Mother both said that you committed suicide. I thought you really hated me and would rather die than stay by my side..."
Yan Shu was also extremely shocked when she heard this.
She never thought that her death in her previous life was actually planned by Empress Dowager Zhao Jing and Yan Qingwan.
Two cups of poisoned wine, two attempts at provocation, and both actually succeeded.
Xiao Yu succeeded in hating her and imprisoned her.
And she successfully died with hatred in her heart, and until the moment she breathed her last, she still thought that it was Xiao Yu who wanted to kill her.
Yan Shu suddenly felt a pang of fear in her heart. If it weren't for Xiao Yu's immune body, he would have been killed by her in both lives.
Thinking about how she had never resolved the misunderstanding with Xiao Yu until her death in her previous life, Yan Shu couldn't help but shed tears again.
But when he thought that he died because he drank that cup of poison and was reborn, how did Xiao Yu come back to life?
I wonder if he was also plotted to death by Empress Dowager Zhaojing and others?
"What happened after I died in my previous life? What happened?" Yan Shu half stood up, put her arms around Xiao Yu's neck, and asked him curiously and puzzledly.
Xiao Yu lowered his eyes, his thick and long eyelashes covering the obscurity in his eyes.
What happened.
He personally killed Chu and Yan Nu, as well as the palace maids who failed to guard the palace properly.
The Xiao Palace was flooded with blood, and all the court officials said he was crazy...
The dim candlelight in the hall flickered brightly, stretching the shadows of the two people on the couch.
When Yan Shu heard that Xiao Yu had actually killed Empress Dowager Zhao Jing and Yan Qingwan, she was shocked and stunned.
"How could you kill them?! Didn't you believe I committed suicide?"
Xiao Yu hugged the girl in front of him as if he was holding some lost treasure.
"I believed what the Chu family said, but I hate them for giving you poisoned wine. Even if you asked for it, it doesn't matter. They deserve to die if they gave it to you." Xiao Yu said in a deep voice, and a murderous and bloodthirsty look appeared in his dark eyes again.
Xiao Yu is now extremely grateful that he killed those two people in his previous life.
When he thought that they were the culprits who killed Shushu in his previous life, he wished he could cut the two people in the dungeon into pieces right now.
Yan Shu naturally hated them in her heart. Since they had harmed her, then Empress Dowager Zhao Jing and Yan Qingwan had indeed deserved to die in their previous life.
However, Xiao Yu only talked about others and did not mention himself, so Yan Shu continued to ask.
"What about you? How did you suddenly come back to life?"
Xiao Yu's eyes paused slightly, and then he just hugged the girl in his arms a little tighter.
"Nothing, just some insignificant things."
Xiao Yu's tone was flat, but Yan Shu could clearly hear a hint of evasion in his tone.
Yan Shu instinctively felt that something was wrong and immediately looked up at him, holding Xiao Yu's pale but extremely handsome face in her hands, not allowing him to escape.
"No, I want to listen! Tell me!" Yan Shu opened her watery eyes and stared at the man in front of her seriously.
Xiao Yu looked at her, his dark eyes fixed, with a hint of darkness in his dark eyes, but at the end was a deep obsession and attachment.
He seemed to take the face of the girl in front of him deeply into his eyes, and after a long while, he answered calmly.
"I...later got together with Shushu."
Yan Shu was suddenly stunned when she heard this. She understood the other meaning in Xiao Yu's words, and then her eyelashes trembled in disbelief.
If I'm with her from my previous life, doesn't that mean I'm dead too?
According to Xiao Yu's personality, it is very likely that he would commit self-destruction.
The shock in Yan Shu's eyes instantly turned into sadness and anger, and crystal tears began to flow out again.
"Xiao Yu, are you crazy or a fool? How could you, how could you... This is not worth it at all!" Yan Shu choked with tears.
What a wonderful thing it is to be alive.
As long as you are alive, there is hope.
How could Xiao Yu commit suicide just because she died?
The girl avoided Xiao Yu's wounded chest, hit his arm angrily, then lowered her head and tears fell from her eyes.
Xiao Yu simply bent his narrow eyes and gently and carefully wiped the tears of the little girl who was crying non-stop.
"Whether I'm a madman or a fool, luckily God is not so stingy with me and lets me see Shushu again."
"Moreover, if I was the only one who was stupid, why did Shushu drink that cup of poisoned wine at the Queen's coronation ceremony?"
Yan Shu wanted to cry even more when she heard this. She rested her forehead on Xiao Yu's shoulder and finally vented the depression and grievances she had felt in the past few days.
But she didn't admit defeat at all. She just buried her head in Xiao Yu's neck and gently bit his shoulder, with a hint of crying in her soft voice.
"I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for my mother..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, a faint smile flashed across his eyes, and then he hugged the angry girl in his arms.
As Yan Shu was crying, she suddenly remembered the pair of gold rings on her ankles, and immediately bit Xiao Yu several times in reproach.
"Why do you always lock me up? It's really annoying..." Yan Shu said as she stuffed her chained feet into Xiao Yu's arms and asked him to unlock her quickly.
While quietly cursing his bad quality of imprisoning people, she also started talking about his behavior that disappointed her last time.
"Xiao Yu, can you please stop killing people so easily in the future? Qingtao and the others are the closest people to me, as are the palace servants. They are all innocent. I know you are the king, but if you treat human lives like this, what's the difference between you and the disgusting King Xiao Wei and those hateful Xiao royal family members?"
Although the girl's tone was light, the meaning of her words was not light.
If Zhou Tong were present at this moment, he would be extremely nervous after hearing this, fearing that this moody master would start another massacre.
But now it was Yan Shu who said this.
This king, who was seen as gloomy and violent by others, showed no signs of being angered.
He just obediently untied the chains on the girl's ankles and nodded in response to her words.
Yan Shu saw that Xiao Yu agreed, and then she continued to nestle in his arms with peace of mind.
In the silent night, the Baohua Hall was also silent.
Just when Xiao Yu thought that the girl in his arms was about to fall asleep, the girl's soft voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Brother Xun, please don't drink that medicine anymore, okay? I think our future children will be very cute."
The young king's pupils shrank.
A strange feeling came to my heart, a little sour, but more of an indescribable strangeness.
His and Shushu’s child?
He had never had such a luxury, nor had he ever hoped for it.
Xiao Yu doesn't like children.
They are fragile, pitiful, and have no ability to resist any risks.
Just like he was in the past, he was powerless and allowed to be manipulated at will by the royal family of Xiao State.
Xiao Yu hated himself for being so incompetent.
But if it was Shushu's child...
For no reason, a little baby who looked exactly like Yan Shu, but was several times smaller, appeared in Xiao Yu's mind. The baby then staggered towards him and called "Daddy" in a baby voice.
Xiao Yu's heart trembled violently.
That strange feeling gradually filled my heart.
His eyes trembled slightly, and after a long time, he finally squeezed out a "OK" from his throat.
But the girl in his arms was already fast asleep in his arms, and it was unknown whether she heard his response or not.
…
The next day, it was already noon when Yan Shu woke up.
She was lying on the familiar couch, with Xiao Yu no longer beside her.
The autumn sun shines through the beige window paper and falls on the green curtains.
Yan Shu lifted the curtain and listened to the noises of the palace servants working and chatting outside the courtyard. It seemed that everything in Baohua Palace had returned to normal.
Just as Yan Shu let her long hair down and stood up from the bed to open the window, Qingtao heard the noise and went into the inner hall to help Yan Shu wash and dress.
Not only Yan Shu was frightened these days, but Qingtao was also quite frightened.
Fortunately, everything has returned to normal now, which is a blessing.
Yan Shu sat in front of the carved pearwood dressing table, letting Qingtao tie her hair while she listened to her mumbling.
What happened to Empress Dowager Zhaojing? How was Mingyi Marquis Wei Ziqi also implicated? Finally, it was mentioned that Yan Qingwan had been clamoring to see Yan Shu these days.
Yan Shu was yawning, her fair little face slightly stunned.
"She wants to see me?"

Copywriter:
As the richest merchant family in Pingcheng, the Ming family is particularly doting on their little daughter Ming Yuzhu, who was born in middle age.
In short, the food, clothing and other expenses of a small merchant girl are comparable to those of a country princess.
Ming Yuzhu herself was born with a voluptuous and charming figure, not only with fair skin and beautiful appearance, but also rumored to have a natural fragrance.
Everyone said that she was so beautiful, but it was a pity that she was a merchant's daughter. If her family background was better, she would have married into a noble family.
It just so happens that the ancestors of the Ming family really did do good deeds.
Because the Ming family's ancestors had saved the Cui family's lives, a verbal marriage contract was made, and this contract happened to fall on Ming Yuzhu. …
As one of the top aristocratic families in the Wei Dynasty, the Cui family has produced many talented people, and the family has reached its peak among the grandchildren.
The third son of the Cui family, Cui Yan, who was born in the second branch of the family, was the most talented and handsome among the younger generation.
At a young age, he was already a close minister to the emperor and was highly respected.
Moreover, he was handsome, with a noble bearing like jade, and all the noble ladies in the capital flocked to him.
He should have married a noble lady from an equally good family, but he had to agree to the marriage promise made by his ancestors.
So among the younger generations of the Cui family who either married princesses or noble ladies, only this Sanlangjun was forced to accept this marriage.
…
When she first met Cui Yan, Ming Yuzhu, who loved beautiful women, felt very happy.
It would be a good thing for her to marry such a handsome and gentle man.
After marriage, because both of them were good-looking, their sex life was naturally harmonious, and Cui Yan treated her like a spring breeze.
So she thought she had married her ideal husband and was in high spirits.
One day, Ming Yuzhu suddenly had the urge to go to the study to deliver soup.
All I could hear was the always cool and aloof husband and his colleagues laughing coldly, "Ming is vain and spoiled, and unlettered. How can she compare to the princess?"
Ming Yuzhu then realized that Cui Yan had looked down on her since the day he married her.
Just like those aristocratic children, they are a bunch of hypocrites who look down on others.
Ming Yuzhu, who had been spoiled at home for more than ten years, had never suffered such humiliation. She was so angry that she threw down a divorce letter and ran back to her parents' home.
There are thousands of good-looking men? If Cui Yan is gone, there are still Zhang Yan and Li Yan!
So on the second day after returning home, the Ming family began to look for a husband for their beloved daughter, and they competed in both literary and martial arts.
While the young lady from the Ming family was leisurely eating candied fruits, she was dazzled by the sight of the group of shirtless young men fighting.
I saw that the always arrogant Cui Sanlang actually walked into the Ming family's backyard with a sullen face.
"Such a good-for-nothing like me is not worthy of your attention. Why don't you choose me as your son-in-law?"
…
In order to avoid being constrained by his wife's family, when no one in the family accepted the marriage proposal with the wealthy businessman Ming.
Cui Yan took the initiative to accept it.
Outsiders all sigh that he is a young man from a noble family, but they don't know that he knows in his heart that he is cold-hearted and only cares about profit.
I thought she was just a small merchant's daughter, and I would just marry her to make her a beautiful vase.
I coax her with good food and drink, so I don't think she would dare to cause any trouble.
Therefore, Cui Yan never really took the Ming girl seriously.
What's worse, because Ming didn't know the rules, liked extravagance, and luxury, had an extremely spoiled temperament, and was not good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting, Cui Yan felt that she was a fool and vulgar.
However, since you have married her, it is not difficult to treat her with respect.
So after a while, if you don't think too much about it, the relationship between husband and wife is quite harmonious.
But as time went by after their marriage, Cui Yan gradually felt that he could not live without this Ming girl for even a day.
When the girl laughs or gets angry, her usually calm emotions will fluctuate accordingly.
But just as he was getting deeper and deeper into the so-called love between men and women, his wife, whom he had married in a formal ceremony, left with a letter of divorce.
The Cui family thought it was a great thing and were all very happy. They immediately and happily wanted to find a new noble lady to marry Cui Yan.
No one would have thought that Mr. Cui Sanlang, who had always been proud and self-respecting, would leave the Cui family overnight to become a son-in-law of the Ming family, a well-known merchant family.
