Chapter 499 Pain in the past life: Only when Dugu Liancheng died can she be truly relieved
The world only knows that Mu Ci liked to shamelessly pester Dugu Liancheng since she was a child, but no one knows her sincerity.
She knew everything about him, no matter how big or small. She knew his strengths and weaknesses, and of course she also knew that he had suffered from headaches.
She applied the most poisonous pollen from the soul-eating grass to her lips, which not only caused his old disease but also made him invisible.
Even when Dugu Liancheng's old illness relapses, no one will know that Dugu Liancheng's illness was caused by her, because Soul-Eating Grass is not poisonous at all.
She did it perfectly, and if she wanted to continue to hide it, no third person would know.
She thought she had left out everything, but she failed to consider Dugu Liancheng's heart.
Yingchun has also been worried recently, because she secretly checked the Soul-Eating Grass. When she found out, she was actually frightened because she thought of the emperor's illness.
The person who used to be so optimistic and talkative has recently become taciturn.
Sizhu also saw it, but didn't know what to say.
She didn't know what the empress was going to use the soul-eating grass for before, but now she understood that it was originally used to murder the emperor.
When the empress did this, she did not leave any escape route for herself.
There is no airtight wall in the world. If this matter is exposed, the empress will definitely be punished.
On the way back to Yong'an Palace, for the first time, the three masters and servants were silent.
After Mu Ci returned to Yong'an Palace, she did not eat dinner. She fell asleep on the couch and had a long dream.
In the dream, she was the queen of Dugu Liancheng, and she was pregnant.
When Dugu Liancheng first learned that she was pregnant, he was reluctant to pay attention to her until she contracted a cold and coughed non-stop. Dugu Liancheng ordered Dr. Zhang to diagnose and treat her.
She was ill and confused at that time, so she held Dugu Liancheng's hand and talked a lot.
She said that she had no choice but to think of using that method to become his woman. She also cried and said that she couldn't stand that he had so many concubines.
These were all things Sizhu told her after her fever subsided and she woke up.
Normally, she also had her own pride and was unwilling to bow to Dugu Liancheng. At that time, she would never cry to Dugu Liancheng. That was the only time.
I don't know if it was her sincerity that moved Dugu Liancheng, or there were other reasons. After that, Dugu Liancheng often visited Weiyang Palace.
It was during that period that her relationship with Dugu Liancheng developed rapidly, and she even naively thought that there was a chance that she and Dugu Liancheng would last forever.
If a person has never had hope, there will be no despair. It is precisely because Dugu Liancheng gave her hope that she imagined their future.
Later, Yun Xi planned to kill her flesh and blood, and An Rong climbed onto the dragon bed in Dugu Liancheng after she slipped, causing her to suffer a double blow.
Later, someone sent her a message saying that the reason why Dugu Liancheng cared so much for her during her pregnancy was because he wanted to use her to deal with Mu Zhi.
She once had a beautiful dream, and finally woke up from it.
She loved someone, and her best friend betrayed her, but she only ended up in the cold palace.
How could she not hate it?
But after living in Chenxiang Palace for several years, in that deserted place, even hatred became a luxury.
At that time, she suddenly understood that there was no need to make herself so miserable. It was just falling in love with someone she shouldn't love, and it was just relegated to the cold palace.
But God is still too cruel. After she entered the cold palace, her mother died suddenly, her brother also died in the sky prison, the Mu family was confiscated, and she was the only one alive in the cold palace.
Until one day she was burned in Chenxiang Palace and turned into ashes together with Chenxiang Palace. She suddenly found that she was freed.
When she woke up again, she was back to the age of fifteen.
She wanted to change her destiny, but her calculations came and went, only to return to the starting point.
Because she was unwilling to become Dugu Liancheng's plaything, she thought that only when Dugu Liancheng died could she truly be freed.
But before Dugu Liancheng died, she must let him taste the ultimate pain. She would make his life worse than death, let him taste the pain that she had experienced...
"Your Majesty, does the food not taste good to you?" Sizhu asked softly when he saw Mu Ci sitting at the dining table in a daze.
The queen took a nap and then woke up.
Even so, the empress also had nightmares.
When she first started to sleep with her, she would often have nightmares at night. After she woke up, she would sit like this, making it hard to tell what she was feeling sad about.
It looks like she is sad, right? Even if the empress appears to be very calm.
In fact, the empress has only just turned seventeen, but she has already experienced everything.
"The Ai family doesn't know if they have done something wrong. The personal grudge between the Ai family and Dugu Liancheng is not as important as the foundation of Daxia." Mu Ci put down the bowl and chopsticks, feeling like a heavy mountain was weighing on his head.
She had thought about stopping, but she also knew that once the Soul-Eating Grass enters the human body, if it is not detected in time, it will be extremely painful when it attacks.
The reason for such confusion was that she knew that no matter how many things Dugu Liancheng had, he was still a good emperor who loved his country and his people. Having such an emperor in Daxia was a blessing to the people of Daxia.
Sizhu did not expect that the empress would reveal this problem personally. Yingchun, who was waiting on the side, looked outside cautiously and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no one nearby.
"There is no absolute right or wrong in the world. It was indeed the emperor who felt sorry for the empress. The empress had no choice but to commit herself to the emperor because of the imperial power." Sizhu replied in a low voice.
So the empress did this to avenge herself, so what’s wrong with that?
Not everyone can have the world in mind. The empress had lived too hard in those days, so she wanted to take revenge on the emperor.
"You don't know that the grudges between the Ai family and the emperor cannot be explained in a few words." Mu Ci stood up and looked at the orange palace lantern in the corner with a distant look: "I'm just asking for what he owes me.
He should live a life worse than death, to taste what I have tasted."
She was not wrong, it was Dugu Liancheng who was wrong. It was him who refused to let her go, and it was he who created today's results.
"Empress?" Sizhu had never seen such a cruel Mu Ci. Even Yingchun was frightened and stood not far away, not daring to move.
Mu Ci seemed to realize that she had lost her composure. She smiled, and the anger on her face disappeared completely: "Why are the Ai family telling you this? You don't understand anything."
None of them have memories of their past lives, and she is the only one who is moving forward carrying those heavy pasts.
"I really don't understand anything. But as long as it is something that makes your Majesty happy, I will feel that your Majesty is not wrong."
Sizhu felt that her mother-in-law must have a reason for everything she did.
If the empress wishes to kill the emperor, then the emperor must die.
