But later I learned that the Queen Mother was not hiding anything. It was because she did not love her father. The empress had a very fierce temper. She could not bear to have a child with a man she did not love. Coincidentally, royal father had always listened to her request and would never disobey her.
No matter what she did, royal father would not deny her. In the end, she would make a move on me.
I knew when the word slave was carved that she had never thought of me as her child from the start. She had only thought of me as her stain. Then, the State Grandmaster appeared. He came from Bai Shan, the head disciple of the White Mountain Immortal School.
He had an unparalleled talent, a face as beautiful as an immortal's, and an aura that didn't exist in the mortal world. I got a lot of love from women, especially from my mother. The Queen Mother fell in love with a man who was exactly ten years younger than her.
As for the man, he didn't reject her and only indifferently accepted her offer. Then he became an Imperial Advisor.
How could such a woman have any unspeakable secrets? The reason she pushed me off the cliff that day wasn't because of the people, but was because of that man. Because the man said he didn't want to see me. "
Jiang Wuyue's face contorted when she said that.
Shui Ruo heard this and was speechless. Just what kind of wondrous mother was this? How could she do this?
Even if she didn't like him, he was still her child, right? She had no parents and did not know what parents should do to her children. However, looking at the father of this body, it was Shui Sanjin.
In addition, he already knew that the soul in this body was no longer his daughter, but because this face had chosen to continue being his daughter, he knew. The Queen of Jiang Country was not a competent mother.
"Don't show that expression, I don't need your sympathy." Jiang Wuyue frowned as he looked at the silent but complicated expression on Shui Long's face.
"I don't sympathize with you. I'm just curious. What kind of person was a woman that could treat her own child like this? Did she have nightmares when she did that?
It is obvious that others would even dream of obtaining it. Yet, she still torments such a treasure in every way possible? "
"You too on this point." Jiang Wuyue looked at Shui Ruo and said faintly.
"Huh? How could that be? I don't have a son. "
"You have no son, but you treat the feelings of those high and mighty towards you as if they were nothing. You even make full use of them. Isn't it the same when you step on someone else's foot as if they were treasure? "
Jiang Wuyue asked.
"Of course it's different. Affection was love, but kinship was kinship. "If there is anyone who treats me like family, I will definitely protect them for the rest of their lives. I won't let them suffer any more, but …" No.
Although the people from the Shui family saw her as a family member, that feeling was different. All of this was brought about by this body. There were still differences between him and his real family.
She wanted real family, the kind that would share the same boat, laugh together at night, enjoy the cold, and watch the moonlight together.
Perhaps it was because Shui Yuehan's expression was too lonely at this moment, or perhaps it was because the two of them unexpectedly shared the same thoughts.
Jiang Wuyue looked at Shui Ruo. A rare trace of tenderness flashed across her scarlet eyes. He then moved to her side and said, "Although it's a little hot, it's still more comfortable to be near you."
"Right? So, why did you make such a troublesome poison? If you were willing to be my friend in the beginning, I might be willing to help you. " Shui Long was depressed.
"It's not the same. When you go, you'll know why. " When you see Jiang Guo, you will be like them. Why don't you put all the blame on me?
Jiang Wuyue didn't know what was going on in her heart, but as she stuck to Jiang Wuyue, she felt truly at ease. He wasn't sure if it was his own temperament or the effects of the medicine.
Finally, the carriage arrived at the city gates.
He was stopped by the guard.
"Who's inside?" The guard asked with a fierce expression.
"It's This King's people." Just as the guard wanted to investigate, Night Emperor Shang's voice sounded, teasing and lazy.
When the guard heard this, he hurriedly knelt down, "King Jing, thousand years."
"Stand up. This King came here to send off a friend. There is no need to be overly courteous."
"Your subordinate does not know that the person on this carriage is a friend of the prince. If you offend him, please punish him." The guard looked at the Emperor with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Night Emperor Shang laughed, "Since you know, then I will allow my friend to pass."
"This …" The gatekeeper hesitated.
"What, even This King's friends need to be checked?" Night Emperor Shang wrinkled his brow. The smile on his face instantly disappeared.
Usually, in the eyes of these guards, the Emperor was a god-like existence. They had only heard of him but had never seen him. Where did he see Emperor Shang getting angry?
They couldn't afford to offend the emperor, but neither could they afford to offend the prince.
After thinking about it, the gatekeeper finally clenched his teeth and let them pass.
Thus, when the carriage was about to leave the city, Emperor Ye Shang also jumped onto the carriage.
He coincidentally saw two people snuggling together in the carriage. The two of them didn't have any flirtatious feelings, they just leaned against each other. It even seemed to match.
However, these were not the main point. The main point was why they were together!
Night Emperor Shang wrinkled his brow.
"Did I disturb you?" Night Emperor Shang's voice was pleasant to hear, but it was somewhat abrupt. Hearing this, the two of them hurriedly pushed each other away.
With an awkward expression, he looked at the approaching Night Emperor Shang.
"Sorry, I didn't know you were coming." The water was low. However, Jiang Wuyue, who was standing at the side, was much calmer. The moment he saw that Emperor Shang had arrived, the awkward expression on his face changed to one of provocation.
"Is Your Highness preparing to send us to Jiang Guo?"
"This King came to bid farewell to her." Night Emperor Shang wrinkled his brow.
"Farewell?" There was no need for that. Your Highness still needs to help us deal with the soldiers chasing us later. " Jiang Wuyue smiled innocently.
Hearing this, Emperor Ye Shang's face changed drastically. He hurriedly asked, "You are secretly plotting something?"
"What are you doing in secret? Aren't your words a bit too unpleasant to listen to?" I just don't want anyone to catch up to us. Naturally, this person also included the Prince. Be at ease. By the time your emperor knows that you are the one who let us go, we are already far away. Even if he were to quickly let the people below pass the message, it would be too late. " When Jiang Wushang heard this, his expression immediately turned dark.
If he let Night Emperor Yan know that he was the one who let Wandering Water go, this would be a big deal. The Night Emperor's attitude towards her was no less than any of them.
"Remember that!" Emperor Shang fiercely glared at Jiang Wuyue and could only choose to return.
He didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to Shui.
When he left, Shui Ruo couldn't help but look at the man beside him weirdly.
He was just lying. Because when he said those words, his hand was always moving. Over the past two days, she had gradually discovered the temperament of this man, as well as some of his habitual actions.
When his hands moved, it meant that he was lying and nervous.
When his smile was harmless, it meant that he was very wary of the other party.
"Why lie to him?" Shui Long thought about it for a while and could not help but ask.
"Interesting. And I really can't let him catch up with us. I will not let go of any possibility of exposing our whereabouts. "
The man's tone was very indifferent, as if he was talking to her about how good the weather was.
Shui Long listened and fell silent.
It had to be said that this person's brain was truly useful. He had cut off all possibilities.
At this moment, Night Emperor Shang was in a hurry to return, so it was impossible for him to lead the way for others. Even if someone were to follow him, they would still follow him halfway back.
During this time, Jiang Wuyue would have enough time to escape.
To be able to hold the position of Crown Prince of Jiang Country and be tricked by his mother for so many years without dying, he did indeed have some tricks up his sleeves.
"What are you thinking about?" On the carriage, Jiang Wuyue looked at the water and asked faintly. He was silent because of Shui Long's meditation.
Shui Long quickly replied, "It's nothing. I'm just thinking about where we're going to live tonight."
"If it's an inn, it's easy to find out, so we have to travel at night and not rest." "This way, we can reach the Jiang Country in less than half a month."
The country is a long way from the country. The Jiang Country was already the closest country to the map, and if they were to take place in a Bai Country that was further away from the Jiang Country, it would take a whole year. It was also because of this that the Jiang Country was the only country that was related to this country.
Just like the Jiang Wu Yue in front of his eyes. If he wasn't so close, he wouldn't have appeared here.
It was just that, the distance between Jiang Guo and him was only a month, how urgent was he to travel through the night?
Shui Ruo didn't quite agree with him. After all, rushing over in such a hurry would only bring them harm. Along the way, he was tired and couldn't respond to anything that happened.
But even if she wasn't satisfied, they had already said so. She could only obediently listen to him. She was not Jiang Wuyue's friend, but his hostage. Although he treated her well and didn't make things difficult for her, even sitting in the same carriage as her, this didn't mean that he regarded her as a friend.
There was nothing to say along the way. Meanwhile, in the capital.
Within the royal estate of the Night Emperor, Redtears knelt on one knee, not daring to look at the person before her.
"He came back?" The voice of the Night Emperor was ice-cold, without a trace of emotion. His lavender robe was embroidered with ancient runes. He lightly touched the teacup beside his hand, a bit absent-minded.
Hong Lei did not even take a deep breath after hearing that and just said, "This subordinate will follow Prince Jing according to your request. As expected, Prince Jing's actions are strange." He personally went to the city gate to send a carriage out of the city. The subordinate followed behind. But not long after, Jing Wang left the carriage. He turned back.
His Highness the Scene King was very meticulous and this subordinate determined that he must have intentionally picked up a horse carriage to show us. So, I followed him back. "
"And then?" After listening to Redtear's explanation, the Night Emperor asked indifferently.
And then? Tears smiled bitterly. If there was a later, he wouldn't have to kneel here all by himself.
"Then... Prince Jing went back to the Residence by himself and never came out. "
"So, you lost it?" The Night Emperor wasn't angry, but he was calm.
"Yes, your subordinate knows his wrongs. Please punish me, Your Highness." Tears bowed her head in apology.
Hearing this, Night Emperor Xiu shook his head and said, "Stand up, your judgement is reasonable, so it's not your fault. If you're going to blame, it's because Night Emperor Shang is too crafty. If she was right, she should be in the carriage. Although he did not know why Ye Huangshang wanted to send her out, he definitely had a reason.
It's really too weird to have Night Emperor Shang send her far away. "
"Then, what does Your Highness mean?" Tears looked at the man and asked curiously.
"They seem to be heading towards Jiangguo. Right now, the Jiang Country was in chaos. Those who could hijack water and continue to head towards the Jiang Country regardless of everything would definitely have an inseparable connection with the Jiang Country.
This king remembers that we had a lot of interactions with the empress of Jiang Country. Ask her to look after it. If she can find it, then give her the thing she always wanted. In exchange for this, she should be very willing to help us. "
The voice of the Night Emperor was cold and indifferent. With these words, his thoughts couldn't help but drift off into the distance.
Even the woman he liked couldn't stay by his side. He was too ridiculous.
He boasted that he was doing everything for peace. But when would there be peace in this world? As long as there were people, there would be fights.
Even if he wished for peace, it did not mean that others would be like him. Just like the Night Emperor's flames.
"It seems that the Emperor has sent many assassins recently." The Night Emperor said faintly. He put his hand on the table and frowned.
"There are indeed a lot of answers to the prince, they all seem to be deathsworn."
"This time he really wants my life." Even though he had thought of it before. The Night Emperor frowned.
The fight between him and the Crown Prince had never stopped. However, it was the first time it had happened in such a blatant manner. Ever since Shui Ruo had disappeared, he had been sending assassins to kill him. This caused him to be at his wit's end.
"Your highness, your subordinate feels that it would be better to make some preparations earlier, so as to not cause too much trouble." Red tear said respectfully. However, the meaning behind this test was rather strong. He felt quite worried as he looked at the man.
The prince still couldn't bear to part with his own brother.
