After saying that, the Queen waited for the man in black to speak.
"I will send someone to do it. I will set the remuneration according to the difficulty of this matter. After this is done, I will come and collect the payment."
With that, the man disappeared. When the man left, the empress's lips curled up in a sinister smile.
Xia Sizhu, regardless of whether or not you are that slut's woman, just based on your appearance, I can't let you live.
"Big Brother Beitang, why are you here?" Just as Xia Sizhu was about to return to her room to rest, she discovered the Western Tomb North Hall standing by the door.
"Beitang gege has something to talk to Qing Er." When the Western Tomb Beitang saw that Xia Sizhu had returned, the corner of his mouth raised into a brilliant arc.
"Beitang gege, what do you have to say for yourself!" The two of them sat facing each other in the room.
"Qing'er, tell Beitang Bro and your mom if there's a birthmark of the Resurrection Lily on the left side of your chest."
At this moment, the Western Tomb Beitang was staring at Xia Sizhu without blinking.
"Yes." Xia Sizhu smiled faintly as she looked at the expectant gaze of the Western Tomb Beitang.
"If your mother has the birthmark of the Resurrection Lily, why doesn't Qing'er have it?"
The expression on the face of the Western Tomb Beitang didn't seem strange at all, but his eyes were filled with ecstasy.
Qing'er's mother had the birthmark of the Resurrection Lily, so it was very likely that he and Qing'er were siblings. How could he not be happy?
"I don't know why I don't have the birthmark of the Resurrection Lily. Maybe I didn't inherit it." Xia Sizhu shook her head. She wasn't too clear on this point.
"Big Brother Beitang will continue to investigate this matter. Regardless of the outcome, Big Brother Beitang will definitely acknowledge you as his younger sister."
He had hoped that he could grow up quickly and protect his mufei, but mufei had left.
Now, he had found someone he could protect willingly. Regardless of whether he and Qing'er were related by blood or not, he was certain that she was his own sister.
"Yes." The words of the Western Tomb Beitang made Xia Sizhu's heart warm. It was her happiness to have such an elder brother who cared for her.
After sending off the Western Tomb North Hall, Xia Si had not yet closed the bamboo door, but he felt the world spinning around him.
When she opened her eyes again, she was on the bed, and in front of her was an enlarged version of an ordinary face.
"What did you and the Xi Ling Northern Tang just talk about?" Dongfang Ya looked straight at Xia Sizhu with a serious expression.
"Big brother Beitang said that regardless of whether we're related or not, I'll always be his little sister. Why would I have a big brother? Aren't you happy about it?"
Xia Sizhu had thought that Dongfang Ye would be happy, but she didn't expect him to immediately pull his face down.
"I'm happy." Dongfang Ye said happily, but his heart was full of displeasure. Now that the Western Tomb Beitang had become A Zhu's older brother, he would have a better chance of getting close to him.
He even had the opportunity to steal his wife. In fact, he hoped that more people would love Zhu. However, he didn't want to find a love rival for himself.
The room instantly quieted down. Xia Sizhu glanced at Dongfang Ye, then took the initiative to rub herself against his body. "I'm sleepy."
Hearing this, Dongfang Ye immediately carried Xia Sizhu and lay down, covering her with a blanket.
"Ah Zhu, don't sleep. I have something to ask you." Dongfang Ye kissed Xia Sizhu on the forehead and said.
"Go ahead." Xia Sizhu lazily said as she found a comfortable position for herself.
"Why is there no birthmark on your left chest?" He knew that Xia Sizhu's mother had a birthmark on her left chest. She was her daughter, so shouldn't there be a birthmark on her left chest? Why not?
"I don't know either. It's probably because he hasn't inherited it yet!" Xia Sizhu's eyes didn't even open as she spoke.
"Ah Zhu, why do you feel so fearful and disgusted when you see Emperor Xi Ling?"
Dongfang Ye was very confused about this. Why were they so scared when meeting two people he had never met before?
"Can I trust you?" Xia Sizhu slowly opened her eyes, a flowing light flickering within.
"What do you think?" Dongfang Ye didn't directly answer Xia Sizhu, but simply smiled and said.
"Actually, I am not the real Xia Sizhu. I am borrowing corpses to return the lost souls. I live in a different world from yours. When I was very young, I had a blissful home.
It was unknown when my father started gambling and drinking, but everything in the family was ruined by him. His temper became more and more violent, and he often bullied me and my mother.
Then a rich woman fell in love with him, and he left us in vain, and my mother and I began to live a poor life, and then my mother and I could have made it even if it had been worse. "
Speaking of which, Xia Sizhu's eyes were filled with happiness. Those days were bitter but sweet.
Dongfang Ye, on the other hand, was so shocked by Xia Sizhu's words that he couldn't react at all.
No wonder when he first met Ah Zhu, the difference between Ah Zhu and the rumors was so great, so it was actually not the same person.
"If you're scared, then leave. I won't force you to stay." Xia Sizhu treated Dongfang Ye's shock as fear.
Xia Sizhu took the initiative to come out of Dongfang Ye's embrace, burying her head on the pillow as she spoke in a muffled voice.
She knew that such a thing could not even be endured by a single person. She did not blame Dongfang Ye for being afraid. From the perspective of the ancient people, she was now a ghost.
"Silly girl, what are you thinking? You are my woman, how can I let you go?"
Dongfang Ye let out a sigh, turned around, and wrapped his arm around Xia Sizhu's waist. With a single push, he pulled her into his embrace.
"This grandpa just didn't react. You don't trust this grandpa's love?"
Dongfang Ye placed his head on Xia Sizhu's shoulder and said faintly.
"What happened next?" Dongfang Ye quickly accepted Xia Sizhu's identity.
From his point of view, he did not care about how Ah Zhu used to be. Ah Zhu was now his wife, and after everything that had happened in the past, there was no need to care too much about it.
"That man is back again, and he's holding the power and money he got from that rich woman to humiliate my mother and me, to make things difficult for us.
Later on, we learned that the man did this to us because our existence made that rich woman uneasy, so he brought money and people to suppress us. Mom was beaten to death by them, and I was sold by him. "
Throughout this entire process, Xia Sizhu was trembling. Remembering her childhood memories, she was still as frightened as before. That was a nightmare that she would never be able to forget.
"Ah Zhu, don't even think about it. Let's go to sleep. I don't want to hear any more." Seeing Xia Sizhu in such pain, Dongfang Ye's heart ached.
"He's still human. Don't sell me to someone else to be a child's daughter-in-law, or somewhere else that's even scarier than a child's daughter-in-law. He sold me to an organization that specializes in training assassins. Little by little, I became cold-blooded and heartless. In order to survive, I killed everyone who was with me, and in the end, I survived and became the King of Assassins in that world. "
As Xia Sizhu spoke, her expression became abnormally cold.
