"elder sister, do you really not want me to die?"
I dejectedly emerged from the woods, pulling Mu Xiao along by the sleeve as he could only walk slowly with me.
I looked at elder sister.
Although some tricks have not been figured out, during these days, in the nightmare of sleeping with Lou Jingzhi, I have long understood her intentions. I just hate her for not saying a word from beginning to end.
"It's elder sister's stupidity that let Lou Jingzhi see through the methods."
In my previous life, the precious family affection was trampled before my eyes before I died. I was blinded by hatred and resentment towards her.
Looking back on my life, if sacrificing me, a useless princess, in exchange for the peace and prosperity of the Nanzhao Kingdom, it might not be a bad deal. But my elder sister never considered such a method. Instead, she found a death warrior who was my equal in strength to die in my place in front of Lou Jingzhi.
In the imperial city of Nanzhao, there were already spies of Lou Jingzhi, and when the news leaked, those death warriors were assassinated, and I couldn't escape either.
"But today I have seen clearly the insatiable desires of human hearts, and the blade used to kill others is now turned towards me. A-Tang, we can only rely on ourselves, and women may not necessarily become dependent."
"Is it risky to cooperate with Lou Qi?"
I have always been uneasy about this move.
"You've already won the bet," she patted my head.
"My Atang, you are truly brilliant."
Fortunately, there were no dangers tonight. I think I should return to the sleeping quarters. The guards have already heard about my impressive performance during the spring hunt, and after being intimidated by me during the day, they dare not come near me again.
There were only a few court ladies waiting in the hall, and I dismissed them along with Cuiyun. I opened the hidden drawer at the head of the bed. Inside was the box that Cuiyun had handed to me on the day of our trip to Ning Kingdom.
Inside the box is an unremarkable packet of medicine paper. As a member of the royal family of Nanzhao, I only need to lightly smell the faint bitter fragrance emanating from it to know that this is the secret poison formula passed down from the ancestors of the poison doctor family in our dynasty. This potion, I have never thought was left by Wei Ruyin for herself.
Tonight, even though elder sister is using my body, with her proficient martial arts skills, Lou Jingzhi should not be her match. In the beginning, Father was afraid of his ambitious nature and prohibited anyone from teaching him martial arts. I was so naive, and I even defended him, vowing to teach him everything once I mastered it.
It's a good thing I was playful in my childhood, neglecting all six arts.
Lou Jingzhi has suffered quite a few injuries tonight, so he probably won't be back too soon.
After enduring so many long, endless nights, I have plenty of patience to wait.
"Wei Sitang is dead."
"Is that so?" I raised my head.
Lou Jingzhi's arm was wrapped in gauze, with little specks of blood seeping through.
He walked over casually, his sharp wolf-like eyes staring at me without blinking, trying to find any flaws. Can he still remain calm in the face of danger at this point? Or is it just meaningless pretense left?
"It was you who taught I, those who want to achieve great things must give up petty emotions and love. Her death is not worth regretting," I replied through gritted teeth. "The queen's heart is even colder than I imagined."
"Is the heart of I like this?" I looked at him with a bitter smile, filled with deep hatred.
"After such tempering, it has long been as hard as iron."
"But I have a doubt."
Lou Jingzhi changed the subject. "She said she was the previous life's Wei Ruyin, then may I ask, the queen of mine - who are you?" I restrained my emotions, poured a cup of tea, and helped him sit down.
"kingWhere did you hear such a fantastic story?"
I had just put on a perfect smile when suddenly the warm tea spilled all over my face.
He grabbed my neck from behind.
"In the previous life, I looked down on the world. Are you two sisters here to collect debts from me in this life?"
"Do you think you can succeed by forgetting the past? No, even if everything has changed, my fate will not be altered!"
Lou Jingzhi touched the sore spot, breathing heavily.
The gentle and profound mask was completely torn open by him, and for the first time, he revealed his inner ambition and madness so bluntly.
"I, your humble servant, I, your humble servant, don't understand what the king is saying..."
I grasped his hand that was holding my wrist with both of mine, squeezing and pulling with all my strength, just to gain a little breathing space.
I just feel the air in my chest getting thinner and thinner. In a daze, the firelight from my past life reappears before my eyes. My body feels like it's falling into an ice cellar, and I strangely long for that burning death. The army of Nanzhao will arrive tomorrow, won't they?
It seems like I saw elder sister for the last time. I miss father so much...
"Stop!"
