[Let me tell you in advance that Xuan Ningxuan and Murong Jingwan are not biological siblings. I hope you will continue reading and the mystery will be slowly solved later.]
Xuan Ningxuan's stern eyes glanced over the guards coldly, and said without a trace of emotion: "Come here, pull this slave out of the Meridian Gate and kill him."
The guard looked at Xuan Ningxuan with a pale face and said in fear: "Your Majesty, please have mercy. It was the minions who accepted the bribe, but the minions really didn't do anything."
Xuan Ningxuan walked out without a trace of emotion, no longer paying attention to the guard sitting limply on the ground.
Xuan Ningxuan was confused. Who bribed the jailer, why was he blamed, and what did this matter have to do with Murong Jingwan? Ying Ting's eyebrows couldn't help but frown together, and things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
Xuan Ningxuan had no clue as to who was behind the murder of the three concubines.
Xuan Ningyi was injured and Murong Jingwan was pregnant again. The two of them would not be far away, so Xuan Ningxuan decided to hunt them down personally.
Murong Jingwan struggled to support Xuan Ningyi, her strength gradually exhausted, and thin cold sweat continued to break out on her forehead.
"Wan'er, I can't walk anymore. Can we rest for a while?" Xuan Ningyi said distressedly. Murong Jingwan is pregnant and cannot be so tired.
Murong Jingwan gasped lightly and shook her head, "Yi, just hold on for a while. When we get to a safe place, let's take a rest, okay?" Murong Jingwan knew that Xuan Ningyi couldn't bear to suffer her, but now they stopped, Xuan
Ning Xuan will definitely send people to hunt them down.
Knowing that he could not convince Murong Jingwan, Xuan Ningyi had an idea and thought of another way.
"Wan'er, let's not go to the bottom of the cliff, let's go to the imperial mausoleum." Xuan Ningyi said seriously.
A hint of joy flashed in Murong Jingwan's eyes. The imperial mausoleum had been far away from them for a long time. The most important thing was that Xuan Ningxuan would never have thought that they would be in the imperial mausoleum.
"Wan'er, what do you think of my idea?" Xuan Ningyi looked at Murong Jingwan as if asking for credit.
"Going to the imperial mausoleum is a good idea. As long as Xuan Ningxuan is moved elsewhere for search, it won't be too late for us to go to the bottom of the cliff." Murong Jingwan said word by word.
Xuan Ningyi and Murong Jingwan changed directions and set off towards the imperial mausoleum, but they did not notice a golden light left behind them.
The two of them soon arrived at the imperial mausoleum. Murong Jingwan's strength seemed to disappear in an instant, and her body slowly fell.
Xuan Ningyi was horrified, and quickly hugged Murong Jingwan into her arms, patted Murong Jingwan's face, and said fearfully: "Wan'er, wake up, don't sleep."
Murong Jingwan opened her eyes with difficulty and said weakly: "Yi, I just want to rest for a while."
After receiving Murong Jingwan's response, Xuan Ningyi felt relieved.
Xuan Ningyi struggled to pick up Murong Jingwan and walked towards the depths of the imperial mausoleum.
Xuan Ningyi suddenly stopped, looking around nervously, and unconsciously tightened his hold on Murong Jingwan.
"Who is it?" Xuan Ningyi's voice could not hide the tension.
The footsteps became closer and closer. Xuan Ningyi turned around in fear and saw the figure of the person coming.
"Wuchen, why are you here?" Xuan Ningyi felt relieved. Fortunately, he was not Xuan Ningxuan's pursuer.
The man called Wuchen did not speak, but took off the black hat on his head, revealing his true face.
Xuan Ningyi stared closely at Wuchen's face. He seemed to have seen the man in front of him somewhere before, but couldn't remember it for the moment.
Murong Jingwan, who was resting in Xuan Ningyi's arms, slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Wuchen. When she saw Wuchen's face clearly, Murong Jingwan's breathing seemed to have stopped.
"Jingwan, you're awake." Wuchen finally spoke.
Murong Jingwan was so scared that she couldn't make a sound, and her body couldn't help trembling as she was held in Xuan Ningyi's arms.
"Wan'er, what's wrong? Do you know Wuchen?" Sensing Murong Jingwan's strangeness, Xuan Ningyi asked in a low voice.
"How could I not know her? After all, I have raised her for more than ten years." Without Murong Jingwan opening her mouth, Wuchen said coldly.
Xuan Ningyi was horrified, looked at Wuchen in a panic, and said word by word in shock: "You are...Murong...Zheng..." No wonder the man felt familiar, it turned out to be Murong Jingwan
His father Murong Zheng.
Xuan Ningyi's heart was full of questions, why was Murong Zheng still alive when he had clearly sent someone to kill him.
"Daddy." After a long time, Murong Jingwan found her voice.
"Uncle, you are here to save Wan'er." Xuan Ningyi said excitedly. Murong Jingwan was exhausted and could no longer go on her way.
Murong Jingwan pulled Xuan Ningyi's sleeve and motioned for him to put her down.
As soon as her feet reached the ground, Murong Jingwan quickly stood in front of Xuan Ningyi.
"Why do you do this, why do you want to create so many things? You love your sister so much, why don't you let her go? Don't you know that she is about to give birth?" Murong Jingwan already understood everything in her heart, and she was in great pain. This
Everything turned out to be her father's doing.
Xuan Ningyi looked at Murong Zheng in shock. It turned out that all these conspiracies were designed by Murong Zheng.
"Jingwan, you are worthy of being Zhiqing's daughter. You are as smart as her, but you understand it too late. Jingshu is not my biological daughter, but just a chess piece in my hand." Murong Zheng said lightly, as a
A chess piece, why should he care about her life.
"Why do you do this? What is your purpose?" She told herself not to cry, but Murong Jingwan's eyes still blurred with tears.
Xuan Ningyi supported Murong Jingwan's shaky body and stared at Murong Zheng thoughtfully.
"Why?" Murong Zheng murmured to himself, his thoughts drifting back to the day he met Shui Zhiqing.
When he first saw Shui Zhiqing, he was attracted to her and fell in love with that fairy-like woman. Shui Zhiqing was very beautiful, especially when she smiled, making people indulge in her charming smile.
He had no regrets about falling in love with Shui Zhiqing. He finally got what he wanted and embraced the beauty.
It was only after they got married that he gradually discovered that Shui Zhiqing had always had another man in her heart. He did everything for her, hoping to move her and replace the man in her heart.
Time after time of hard work brought disappointment after time, and eventually the disappointment turned into despair. His love for Shui Zhiqing gradually turned into a heartfelt hatred. How much he loved Shui Zhiqing at the beginning, now he hates Shui Zhiqing.
.
He vowed to take revenge on her, but that beautiful person could not withstand the fate of beauty, leaving his young daughter behind and died prematurely.
His hatred did not dissipate when Shui Zhiqing left. He passed his hatred onto her daughter. The daughter named him was the daughter of Shui Zhiqing and the man she loved.
In order to take revenge on Shui Zhiqing's daughter, he began to lay out the plan, which took more than ten years. He did not want to see Murong Jingwan die happily, he wanted her to live in pain that could not be dissipated forever.
Looking at Murong Jingwan's slightly protruding belly, Murong Zheng knew that his goal was about to be achieved.
