Chapter 1400: The Maid’s Great Turn (End)
Chapter 1400 The Maid's Great Turn (End)
After Prince Chen won the battle, his reputation reached an unprecedented high.
Finally, the emperor couldn't help but send people to take action again.
This time, Prince Chen showed no mercy. The emperor wanted his life, so he had no choice but to let the emperor die.
Since the emperor is ruthless, he can only be unrighteous.
When the emperor was assassinated and was on the verge of death, it was discovered that the imperial concubine had an affair with a guard, and the prince was the son of the guard and the imperial concubine.
The emperor had many concubines in his harem, but the prince was the only child who was born and raised safely. Now it was revealed that the prince was the illegitimate child born from the adultery between the imperial concubine and a guard.
Not only were the imperial concubine and her guards executed, but the imperial concubine's family was also implicated.
The Prince of Chen massacred the harem and the previous dynasty with a bloody fist, and there is no doubt about that.
"Brother, now that your crown prince and imperial concubine are dead, you should go down and accompany them as soon as possible."
"you you......."
"Brother, don't blame me for being ruthless. You forced me to do this. I fought for the Jin Kingdom, but in the end you wanted to kill me. Have you forgotten who has been protecting your kingdom for you all these years? How could you do such a chilling thing?"
"I...you..."
"I had no interest in the throne. It was your suspicion that forced me to become what I am today."
"You are... ambitious..."
"Brother, you disappoint me so much. You know very well that I have always given in to you. If I really wanted the throne, I would not have followed General Su to the military camp."
Unfortunately, he never realized the painstaking efforts behind his actions, and selfishly thought that he went there to gain control of the military power.
Thinking of this, he remembered what Su Yan said to him before he left.
"If you still want to live and really want to do good for the people, then I advise you to make plans early. Some things should be cut short."
"What do you mean?"
"If the superiors are unkind, it will not be a good thing for the people. Also, when the birds are gone, the good bows are put away."
How could he not know? There is another sentence behind it: When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked.
It was Su Yan's words that made him make up his mind.
Now that he holds great power, he cannot keep a woman's heart.
No matter how he tried to please her, Su Yan remained indifferent to him.
After Emperor Wenhui of Jin was assassinated, as he had no son to inherit his career, Prince Chen had no choice but to ascend the throne and become emperor.
After he became emperor, the first thing he did was to posthumously confer the title of General Protector of the Nation on General Su and the title of Third-Rank General of the Garrison Army on Su Chengye.
Su Chengye was a popular figure around the new emperor, and at one point, the number of people who came to the Su residence to congratulate him almost broke down the threshold of the Su family.
I heard that Su Chengyan found his long-lost sister, so anyone who came to propose marriage can go around the imperial city.
Su Chengye drove away all the matchmakers who came to propose marriage, saying that his sister had just been found and he didn't want her to get married so soon.
Su Yan now lives a good life in the Su Mansion, with everything provided for him.
Su Chengye seemed to want to give her all the good things in order to make up for the suffering she had endured over the years.
999: "I heard that Su Chengye went to the palace today to ask for an imperial decree for you."
"Pfft...what?"
999: "Prince Chen... No, it was the current emperor who rejected his request, saying it was unreasonable."
Su Yan: "I have never heard of a brother asking for the title of Madam for his sister."
999: "But Su Chengye said that he has neither a wife, children, nor a mother, and his only relative is his sister. He wants to share this honor with you."
Su Yan sneered. This was something Su Chengye could do.
"What did the Emperor say?"
"The emperor couldn't persuade him, and finally agreed to confer you the title of county princess. It was mainly because you made many contributions to the army that the emperor was able to withstand the opposition of the court officials and confer you the title of Anxianzhu."
"In the end, I still rely on my own strength."
Su Yan was conferred the title of Princess An, which made many noble ladies envious.
Everyone praised her for having a good brother, and more and more people came to her to propose marriage.
Su Yan doesn't even need to refuse, Su Chengye will take the initiative to help her stop these people.
In his words, I haven't even developed a good relationship with my sister yet, how can I let her go to another family to suffer? He has to pamper his sister for a few years and make up for the grievances she has suffered over the years.
On the day she entered the palace to express her gratitude, the Emperor summoned her alone.
The two met again after two years, and Zhu Si was actually a little homesick.
But he still pretended to be calm and maintained his imperial dignity.
"Long time no see, how have you been these past two years?"
"It was pretty good. I saw famous mountains and rivers everywhere and experienced many local customs and cultures."
"Are you still blaming me?"
Su Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking. Why should I blame you?"
Zhu Si had a hint of sadness in his eyes. He said apologetically, "I shouldn't have doubted you at the beginning. I knew you had done so many things, but I had to..."
"I know the emperor's concerns, so I have never been dissatisfied."
"Really? But I have been unable to figure out for the past two years whether you have actually returned to the past?"
Su Yan chuckled: "The emperor is still thinking about this. If I could go back to the past, why didn't I return to the Su family earlier and avoid being a servant in the Zhang Mansion."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chen felt a little disappointed. Is it true that she can't go back to the past?
The emperor also hinted to Su Yan that he wanted to take her into the palace.
Su Yan said: "Your Majesty, I am not capable of being a good wife and mother, and I cannot stand the slightest grievance. I think life in the palace is not suitable for me."
After Su Yan left the palace, Emperor Chen sat in a chair and calmed down for a long time before he accepted the fact that she could not go back to the past.
Can't stand being wronged? Didn't she just say that she wouldn't stand being wronged? With her martial arts, if she was wronged, she would probably dare to beat even him, the emperor.
Emperor Chen finally let go of his obsession.
Speaking of Zhang Mansion today, Su Yan still didn't know what happened to Zhang Ruonan in the end, so he couldn't help asking, "By the way, what about Zhang Ruonan? How did she become?"
999 said gloatingly, "She is in such a plight now. You don't even know that when she disguised herself as a man and sneaked into the army, the Prince of Chen didn't hold her responsible and only beat Xue Kui with a hundred sticks. Xue Kui almost hated Zhang Ruonan to death, blaming her for not only not helping him get promoted, but also causing him to be beaten and demoted by three ranks. Now that she is back in the capital, Zhang Ruonan is beaten every three days and every five days. She never feels comfortable."
Su Yan: "You will suffer the consequences if you do evil."
Su Yan didn't expect that after she left the palace and just went shopping in a shop, she met Zhang Ruonan who was also out shopping.
Now when she saw Su Yan's bright, elegant and luxurious appearance, she felt ashamed of herself and wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
We are both time travelers, but she lives such a good life while I live such a miserable life.
Even being beaten by Xue Kui didn't make her feel as uncomfortable as she did now.
I thought Su Yan would be dragged into this, but it turned out that Su Yan was fine and has now been conferred the title of County Lord.
Looking back at myself, I couldn’t even escape the clutches of a domestic violence man.
You can only struggle in the quagmire all your life and have no future to speak of.
When Su Yan saw her, he just smiled sarcastically and left.
She was too lazy to add insult to injury. The fact that she was living a good life was enough to make her feel a hundred times worse.
