Chapter 269 I Have No Way Out

an felt that all of this really wasn't a big deal at all. 。What she urgently wanted to do was go to the restroom. 。After all, it had been a long time, and she had been drinking tea incessantly to ease...The brand-new Dust Prince's Mansion was formerly the residence given to Quan Qingcheng by the previous ruler. 。But because Quán Qīngchéng was a mute, Empress Yú at the time didn't trust him to live alone outside, so the mansion remained vacant. 。When the earth dragon turned over, this house didn't collapse. Apart from a few servant quarters, all other places were intact, and even the damaged servant quarters were repaired in time. 。After Quan Qing moved in, all the original retainers left. The entire manor was taken over by the Dust Manor, even the signboard above the main gate was replaced with a new one. 。When returning home, Feng Zhaolian was still smiling as if nothing had happened, not showing at all that she had just taken someone away from Quan Qing's studio. 。Even Quan Qing didn't want to ask, or perhaps dared not ask. Because just like Feng Zhao Lian's, some things he did, he thought he could hide from the sea, but he didn't expect that they had already fallen into other people's eyes. 。Even Lian Feng Zhao Lian knows a thing or two, let alone the people of Gui Yue. 。Quan Qinghua still returned to the courtyard. Feng Zhaolian didn't follow, and she didn't act like usual, always chattering with him. Something about him felt like the man in her dream. 。She watched as the person walked farther and farther away, their white robe gradually disappearing from view. Only then did she stop paying attention and return to rest. 。The new mansion courtyard, Quan Qinghua stood in the middle of the courtyard, watching the light snow drifting up, as if she could hear the sound of the falling snow. 。When winter arrived, the moon descended, and snow fell. However, it was not as frequent as the snowfall in Lin'an city. 。In my memory, the snow in Lin'an would fall until late February, and sometimes even into March there would be a few snowflakes fluttering. It wasn't until early April that spring truly began, and people could start farming. 。But I can't remember much else, it's the things about returning to the moon that are more memorable. 。For instance, on such a snowy winter night, he went to see the great general. 。It was also on the days just after the Lantern Festival, he personally sent himself into a deep abyss from which one couldn't climb out. 。"Junior sister, I'm not forcing you to a dead end. I just didn't leave myself a way out either." 。My entire life has been fueled by hatred, yet sometimes this very hatred leaves me utterly lost. 。Because I don't know where hate comes from, nor its roots. 。There are things I know the truth about, but I'm unwilling to accept it. So I have no way back, I can only cling to one person or one thing and refuse to let go. This is the only way I can get through this and keep going. 。So I hate Ye Fei Zhou, if it weren't for him, this revenge would be almost complete. 。I hate you too. If it weren't for you, at least I could still watch Ye Fei Zhou half-dead and see my third brother in agony, tormented by guilt for a lifetime. 。"What a beautiful ending, why did you have to interfere"

He looked up at the snow, as if he saw the shadow of a young woman in it

That was her mother concubine, the one person he had both yearned for and hated for so many years. 。His hatred stemmed from her, and because of her, it became a grave mistake. 。But ironically, after he realized it was a mistake, everything was beyond repair. He had already done what he needed to do. 。There's no turning back, only forward. 。From then on, his life was left with only ~gloom and frost, no longer seeing the sun. 。This night, the masters of several mansions all tossed and turned in their sleep. 。As for the Dust Prince's Manor, it goes without saying. At the Ren Wangfu, Quan Qingyun was truly ecstatic to see the Emperor. He spent the entire night reminiscing about the process of the Emperor coming to treat Ye Fei Zhou's injuries and recalling how the Emperor addressed Ye Wen Yan as "A-Yan". 。That's such an intimate address! In this world, the only one who can command the Emperor is probably that Night Fourth Sister!He also took the time to go over what Ye Wenyan said from beginning to end. After he was done, he felt that this matter was indeed as Ye Wenyan said, unless he cooperated with her, otherwise this matter would never end. 。He wasn't afraid of the fourth brother. As for what happened that year, he had a clear conscience. After all, it was his own fault that Empress Li had been wronged. Even if he didn't expose it, someone else would have eventually. 。How is it possible for concubines and guards to have an affair and still manage to keep it hidden from everyone So after the Fourth Prince returned to Beijing, he even went to the Dust Palace to provoke them, just to vent his frustration about being secretly sabotaged by Quan Qinghua who was always far away in Guiyue for the past ten years. 。But now the fourth brother has set his sights on Ye Fei Zhou, so he can't help but be more careful. 。He can do whatever he wants, but Night Flying Boat cannot be implicated in this matter, otherwise his heart will be troubled. 。Also unable to sleep was the Sixth Prince, and Ye Hongzhuang who had been dragged from her bed for quite a while after being poisoned by him. 。This time he went harder, the whip was coated in chili water, lashing until Ye Hongzhuang's skin was ripped and bleeding. 。When he was exhausted, the Sixth Prince pointed at Ye Hongzhuang and shouted angrily, “You traitor! Did you report to the Ye family Did you leak the news of those three letters That's why your second brother stole them, and he actually succeeded!” He spun around in anger. Those three letters were what he had planned for. As long as he held onto them, he could crush his third brother and even seize all the land and houses under his control. 。Now the trust is gone, he investigated all night and finally discovered it was Ye Fei Zhou who did it. 。He was furious. He was angry that the people around Lao Si were incompetent, that so many masters had failed to defeat Ye Fei Zhou. 。This news very likely leaked from him, because as for his going to the Prince Regent's Mansion, Ye Hongzhuang seemed to have heard it outside... 。"This king doesn't like you at all" 。He told Ye Hongzhuang the truth, "This king even dislikes you because you are not good-looking and have an unpleasant personality." 。Also because you are a piece that the Empress Dowager and Lord Ye need to use, but not a piece that this King wants. 。"But since you've already stepped into the gates of Duke Su's mansion, this king can't just kick you out. So you need to think it through carefully," he stared at Ye Hongzhuang, saying each word deliberately, "You are now this king's wife, which means you have to live in Duke Su's mansion for the rest of your life." 。If I prosper, you prosper. If I perish, you perish. 。So, think it through, do you want to die or live 。If you want to live, then be honest and work for the Prince's Mansion. If you want to die, just speak up, and this prince can send you on your way right now. 。"

Yehongzhuang lay on the ground, enduring the pain all over her body. Her eyes flashed with an unknown light, whether it was hatred or hope.

" 。She: “Of course I want to live, but I want to live well. I want you to be as one with me as you were before.” 。Even if we can't have a loving marriage, at least we should treat each other with respect, rather than beating me up when it gets dark and putting on a fake mask when it gets light. 。I can also consider the interests of the Wangfu, wholeheartedly planning for you, and even using the power of the Ye family to establish your military prestige. 。But you must treat me well and let me safely give birth to the child, then establish him as the Crown Prince, securing our mother and son's prosperity and safety for generations to come. 。“

She struggled to get up, leaning against the bedpost and sitting on the floor, “I don’t know if you still remember what happened back then. The reason you agreed to marry into the Ye family was because of their military power, wasn’t it Although my grandfather is gone now, my grandmother is still here, and the Ye family's prestige in the army remains>>> 。Whatever you seek, even if it's just to preserve what you have, you'll need the support of a family like Night's. 。So now it's not what I want, but what you want. Think about whether you want to treat me well and spend your life with me. 。If you hit me again, what if you really kill me Then see if your family can save you. 。She stared at the person in front of her, a smile on her face, but fear in her heart. 。She was also betting, betting that this person claiming to be the fake Quan Qinglu would be convinced by her words and wouldn't beat her anymore from now on, and they could get along well. 。What if something happened Would the Ye family really stand up for her, or is their military influence really gone 。A deathly silence filled the house. It felt like an eternity had passed before His Royal Highness Sixth finally moved again. 。Ye Hongzhuang instinctively took a step back, but found herself pressed against the bed with nowhere to go. 。She clearly seemed terrified and even raised her hand to protect her head, but when the sixth prince knelt down, gently grasped her hand, and spoke to her in a particularly gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, I won't hit you again" 。Just do as you say, let's live a good life together. No matter day or night, I will always treat you well. 。Let's plan together for the good days ahead. Let's be just like we were before. 。"Really" Night Red Makeup almost couldn't believe her ears. He nodded, "Really." 。But Crimson, there is only one thing you must promise me. 。"What's wrong" He loosened his grip on her hand, gradually moving lower, lightly caressing her stomach. 。"This child, shall we just get rid of her You don't have to worry, as long as you get rid of this child, I promise to treat you well. " 。“You, you what” Yèhóngzhuāng was almost insane. “What are you talking about This is your flesh and blood!” “It’s not mine!” The person who had just calmed down suddenly raged again. “It’s not mine, Yèhóngzhuāng, you know in your heart, this child isn't mine! You belong to me now, and in the future, you can only belong to me. But I can't raise someone else's child. Abort it, and give birth to another child for me, and our family will be very happy.” 。I promise you, if it is a boy, I will make him the crown prince. 。If she's a girl, I'll definitely love and pamper her and give her the best of everything. 。I can even guarantee that I will never take a concubine. The entire Duke of Su's mansion will only listen to your word. 。When you think about it, how dazzling you'll be! 。"

Night Hongzhuang heard her whole body trembling, her two hands clutching her stomach tightly, her face full of fear and rejection " 。She even fooled herself: "Are you stupid The one in my belly is your child! You know it, don't you This was the first time I was with anyone, and this baby is definitely yours!" 。"That's his, not mine!" The man before her had a sinister look on his face. "Ye Hongzhuang, you know it well in your heart. What was then is gone, what is now is now." 。I don't care how the previous one treated you, now that I'm living with you, you have to follow my rules and give birth to my children. 。Don't play dumb with me. I just want to ask you one question: did you or did you not abort this child Qiuhuman looked at each other, though there was struggle in their eyes, they ultimately put down their swords and chose to spare Qian Luo's life. 。As soon as the crisis was lifted, people from Northe...
