Gu Xi Chao looked deeply at her and kept reminding himself that this was the last time. However, he also understood that this self-consolation was useless. If it was useful, he wouldn't be unable to control himself and repeat the same mistake again and again. He also understood that she had been impatient for a long time, but he couldn't help it. Even if it was just sitting in her place, she would still be happy.

She had an impatient expression on her face. He didn't even bother to reply. He knew that his actions would cause trouble for him, but he just couldn't control himself. For some unknown reason, he had a vague feeling in his heart that today would be the last time they would meet. He couldn't help but speak out the things that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

"Madam Su, I'm fine, I just like you."

To Su Yuewu, this simple sentence was like a clap of thunder. Although the expression on his face didn't change, the surprise in his eyes couldn't be ignored. She had never thought that he would suddenly say such a thing to her. Didn't he like Su Yuehua? Why would he say such a thing to her now?

Apart from being surprised, she didn't think that it was fake. This was because his eyes were no longer concealing it. Slowly, it was filled with infatuation, expectation, sincerity, and even some undetectable despair. Although it was very faint, she could still see it clearly.

"Oh."

She didn't know how to respond to his words. The only thing she could give was a faint "Oh", indicating that she knew. The two of them sat in silence, neither of them saying anything.

After an unknown amount of time, the First Prince stood up and gave her a glance. His speed was too fast, and before she could clearly see the expression in his eyes, she saw him turn and leave. He only left behind a "Goodbye".

Su Yuewu didn't say anything either. In such a short period of time, she had discovered the hidden feelings within the First Prince. Although he didn't say much, she understood very well.

She sat there for a moment, and she understood the despair in his eyes. He had been given the identity of a married woman from the moment he had met her, and had even brought a son with him. The conversation also revealed that she and her husband had a good relationship. The current dynasty was not a small era where people plundered each other. Furthermore, his status was still there, so he was not allowed to do anything excessive to him. And because he is not a scoundrel.

The reason why she was so relaxed and willing to act this way towards him was also because she had looked up his information. Understand that all his life he just wanted to be a casual prince, but his mother as a queen doesn't think that way. Being in the royal family was something he couldn't control. He also had his own difficulties.

Although she was grateful for his love for her, if she didn't like him, then she didn't like him. Even if she gave him hope, it would only make her sad.

After Gu Qishao left that day, he had never appeared again. Presumably, it was because he knew that there was no hope for him. There was also the matter of the Su Clan. Now, it was extremely urgent.

Su Yuewu had made all the preparations and no longer had any mood to continue playing. Moreover, Su Yuehua, supported by the empress, was showing signs of a comeback. This made her very annoyed. She told Nan Gong Qian to contact the Royal Family to get a definite answer. If they insisted on protecting the Su Family, then don't blame her.

Politics has always been a bloodless war. While people were still reacting, the country had already changed generations. As for the Su Clan, they had also quietly been annihilated in this long river of history. However, everyone was curious as to how it had been destroyed.

There were too many versions of what happened that day. But the truth was simple.

After Su Yuewu discovered the Empress's support for the Su family, she had found Imperial Concubine Qi, who had always been at loggerheads with the Empress. As for Imperial Concubine Qi, she also had a son of her own, who was only the Third Prince. She had been suppressed by the title of eldest son of the eldest prince since she was young, and the title of imperial concubine had been suppressed by the empress as well.

Imperial Concubine Qi's father was a general of the imperial court. Although he was a military man, he was also a man of iron and tender feelings. He loved his little daughter the most. It was also because of him that forcing the palace this time became very easy.

The Emperor's delay in reigning the throne also gave her endless hope. Therefore, when she and the empress fought to their hearts' content, the appearance of the Lunar Shadow gave her hope of success.

Since ancient times, money was just a good thing. No matter what you wanted to do, as long as you had money, things would become much simpler. Anything that could be solved with money was not a big deal.

With the help of Moon Shadow, most of the officials in the court leaned towards Imperial Concubine Qi. With the appearance of Moon Slaughter, this matter had become much easier. And to the Su Clan, the thing that caused them the most pain was none other than having the person they had always relied on give them despair. Moreover, the first thing the new Emperor did when he registered was to reduce all members of the Su Clan to commoners.

As she did not know who the new emperor was, when Su Yuehua received the decree, she thought it was from the First Prince. Her face was filled with disbelief as she rushed to the palace to see the Empress and the First Prince.

Actually, with her ability, it would not have been so easy to die. It was just that her mind had been completely disrupted by the imperial edict and she had lost her wits. That was why she was so easily killed.

As for the First Prince, although he had done many things to make things difficult for him under the orders of the Empress and had even helped Su Yuehua chase him down and kill him, but because of his deep love for her, she could not bear to do anything to him. She also followed quietly behind him until she saw that he had settled down. As for his future, it was no longer related to her. It was entirely due to his good fortune.

Su Yuewu sat in the carriage in Li City, looking at the little house behind her. She thought that once she went back, everything would be over. Because she was not in the capital when the matter unfolded, she did not know about Su Yuehua's death.

Along the way, she leisurely walked and played with Su Yitian. The two of them had never had a good time on this continent since they came here. Naturally, they were very interested in these sights.

As time passed, they were also unable to control what was happening in the Imperial City.

Su Yuewu looked at the news that had just come from her hands and really felt that it was sarcastic. The Su Clan had already been expropriated, but they were still delusional enough to think they could turn the situation around. However, the ones who could turn the tables were actually him and Su Yitian. He really didn't know whether they were too ignorant or too idiotic.

Looking at the letter saying that Su Huai wanted to use her to marry the Nangong Family, she didn't know whether to be glad that she was still of use, or ridicule him for not seeing the current situation clearly.

Write to Nangong Jean, tell him to delay Su Huai and give him some hope from time to time. She will return as soon as possible.

From that day onwards, she brought Su Yitian and Bing'er with her to the capital city at the same time, day and night. It's just that things can never be as good as planned.

When she heard that the coachman was only three days away from their destination, her whole heart relaxed. After all, there were only a few days left, and all she needed to do was to rest well.

However, the heavens did not seem to want her to be so relaxed. It was first a heavy rain along the way that forced the carriage to slow down for safety. Then there was a fight, and it was not a weak one.

She curiously stuck her head out to look and discovered that the back of the person being attacked was somewhat familiar. He stared at it blankly for a moment, but the more he looked, the more familiar it became. When she saw the ghost mask on his face, she finally knew who he was. Because she knew his strength, she didn't move. Instead, she excitedly looked at the battle in front of her.

Just when he thought he would see an exciting battle, he saw the person in front of him collapse limply. The person who was besieging him took the sword in his hand and stabbed him with it. Then, he turned around and left. Before leaving, he cast a deep glance in his direction. Perhaps because it was night, he did not notice the abnormality on his side and left without doing anything. The people around him also left.

She couldn't help but shiver at that man's cold, piercing gaze. She stopped and jumped down from the carriage and rushed to his front after seeing them leave. The blood flowing in his abdomen was a testament to the strength of the stab.

She asked the coachman to pick him up and put him in the carriage. After that, he had Su Yitian take out the Golden Sore Ointment and tear off a few pieces of clothing in order to stop the bleeding. He told the coachman not to worry about anything else and to enter the next town as soon as possible. Otherwise, based on his current situation, if he didn't bleed to death, he wouldn't be able to live for long due to the wound infection. In addition to the current poor medical equipment, even if they didn't die, they would at least shed a layer of skin.

After arriving at the inn, Su Yue Wu used her shallow knowledge of first aid to work all night. The moment the sun rose, she reached out to touch his forehead, and discovered that he was no longer having a fever, she relaxed and fell into a deep sleep beside his bed.

Leng Fanyun was awakened by the piercing pain on his body. When he woke up, the warmth on his body caused him to panic a little, not knowing where he was now. When he was completely awake, he could smell the fragrance of the woman beside him. Moreover, he was somewhat familiar with this smell. He couldn't help but laugh at himself; he was truly bewitched. He had only seen her twice, but he had actually remembered the scent of her body so well.

As his chuckle inadvertently pulled on the wound on his abdomen, he couldn't help but groan. Before he could regain his composure, he heard a gentle voice asking him.

"Are you awake?"

The familiar voice made him think that he was dreaming. He turned his head in excitement towards the source of the voice. However, this time, the voice caused a wound. This time, he felt happy. Because the pain from the wound told him that what he was seeing was not a dream, but reality.

It seemed like the scene he had seen the day before when he had fainted was not his final illusion, but that she had truly appeared.

"Mm, I woke up."

After Su Yuewu heard this, she nodded her head and didn't say anything else. She turned around and called for a doctor. It seemed that the result of her night of waiting wasn't too bad. Now that he was awake, there shouldn't be any big problems. In addition, Su Yitian had also examined him before. His body was very strong, and it wouldn't be long before he would recover from this kind of injury.

At this moment, Su Yuewu only felt that she had saved a person, and this person had also saved her before. In this way, they could be even and could be considered as repaying the debt of gratitude.
