Ancient women awaken: loving yourself is the way to go

At this time, many masked men in black broke into the Baohedian Hall, screams were heard incessantly, and the scene became chaotic.

Chen Shangshu's "bodyguard" took the opportunity to protect Chen Shangshu to a safer place. When no one was looking in his direction, he shot the poisoned hidden weapon on his sleeve directly into Chen Shangshu's heart.

Minister Chen covered his chest with his hands, his eyes full of disbelief.

The guard's pale lips couldn't hide his joy, "Sir Shangshu, do you still remember Ruyan who was forcibly abducted back to your mansion two years ago?"

"You betrayed me just for a woman?" Minister Chen coughed in anger. The poison slowly eroded his internal organs and his whole body couldn't help shaking.

He fell to the ground, his pale face distorted in great pain.

"Comparing a thing worse than a beast like you with a woman is an insult to women!"

The guard's eyes were full of mockery, "She is my future wife, but you abducted her back to your house. I would accept it if you could treat her well, but you abused her!

Do you feel it? Is it like your body being torn apart by a wild beast? Then your whole body will itch uncontrollably, and you will scratch uncontrollably until your body rots and dies. I want you to pay back double the pain you made Ruyan suffer!"

Minister Chen was too busy to respond. Every part of his body was in unbearable pain. His body stretched out and then bent into a bow shape, and he couldn't help but groan in pain.

The "guard" put his feet on Minister Chen's face and twisted it a few times, then quietly left in the chaos, took off the human skin mask and changed back to his real identity.

No one cared about all this except those who knew about it. All the rational people in the palace were looking at the assassinated emperor.

Prince Yun stretched out his arms to block the prince behind him so that he would not get in the way.

His eyes were fixed on the emperor and the princess, with the hidden weapon in his hand ready to be used.

Another "guard" of Minister Chen broke through the imperial guards who were protecting the emperor, and pointed his sword directly at the emperor.

He was so fast that no one could stop him!

"Your Majesty, be careful!" The people around exclaimed in unison, gasping continuously.

Shen Xingxi also exclaimed, and took the initiative to stand in front of the emperor before Eunuch Xu pushed her.

She had an expression of fearlessness in the face of death, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye because she knew her fate. "Your Majesty, I have no regrets in protecting you. I only ask you to treat the sisters of the Disguise Pavilion well."

The Emperor's expression was somewhat moved. He kept staring at Eunuch Xu out of the corner of his eye, and he knew that it was Princess Yun who volunteered to block the sword for him.

Memories of the past came flooding back to him like a tide.

He was not the emperor at that time, and his brothers sent people to assassinate him many times in order to fight for the throne.

Once, all his guards were killed, and he was seriously injured and hid in a farmer's house.

Yue'er (Queen Yun's mother) rescued him, placed him in the woodshed, and pawned the only jewelry she had on her body to buy medicine for him to heal his wounds.

Later, his whereabouts were discovered and he was assassinated again, and Yue'er stood in front of him just like she does now.

He remembered that day when he ran for a long time with Yue'er in his arms, and after meeting up with his guards, he promised her: "Wait for me to marry you."

He knew that he was in a dangerous situation and only by obtaining the throne could he protect Yue'er.

He took the initiative to approach the current queen's sister. Every time he pushed the queen's sister against the wall and kissed her, he would imagine that this was his Yue'er.

But he didn't expect that Minister Chen was willing to help him become the emperor on the condition that they eat together every day. For Yue'er's sake, he ate the dishes even though he knew there would be something in them.

The strange thing is that the imperial physician did not find any abnormalities. He thought that Minister Chen would not dare to give medicine in public, so he did not take it seriously.

He wanted to remain a virgin for Yue'er, but Minister Chen seemed to think that women could control him, and he kept sending women to him.

He became increasingly addicted to the show, and only realized how deeply he had been addicted when he realized it.

For Yue'er's sake, he gritted his teeth and insisted on giving up his bad habits, but there were people from Shangshu Chen around him, and every time he endured the torture and persevered for a few days, he fell back into the abyss.

The abyss was so dark, so dark that he dared not think about the outside world anymore.

But Yue'er always encouraged him when he woke up in his dreams at midnight. He regained his confidence again and again, and was not hesitant to hurt himself with a dagger to relieve the torture of the drugs.

The last straw that broke the camel's back was the news of Yue'er's death.

It was summer and the sun was shining brightly, but he felt cold all over.

Big tears fell on the wound, but I didn't feel any pain at all.

Through tearful eyes he saw the blood spreading on the white undershirt that Yue'er had made for him. He stabbed himself with the knife like a madman, as if if the blood soaked the undershirt he would become one with Yue'er.

He was saved by the imperial physician when he was dying, but the person who encouraged him in his dreams at midnight was gone.

The only sanity he had left was that Yue'er had asked him to protect himself.

He began to train secret guards at any cost.

So what if there were famines every year? If he died, Yue'er's wish would not be fulfilled.

So what if countless people were killed or injured? His Yue'er was dead, so how could those people live!

It seemed like God was playing a joke on him as he saw the moon in the palace.

He couldn't wait to have her, but found out that she was not a virgin.

He sent people to investigate and found out that Yue'er was the illegitimate daughter of Minister Chen. She was placed in that farmer's family that year and her age was changed before entering the palace.

It was then that he noticed something unusual. Why was Yue'er, who was only ten years old, not panicked when she saw him covered in blood?

Minister Chen did not support him before, why did he change his mind?

He was eight years old at the time and was still an unpopular prince.

The huge conspiracy made him feel suffocated. He thought that he had obtained the throne through his own ability, but in fact it was a prince who was easy to control and chosen by Minister Chen.

The moonlight shone through the sparse flower trees onto his body, creating mottled shadows. He looked as pale as ice as he was suffering from the onset of his drug addiction.

He has already taken root in the abyss, and it was Yue'er who filled the soil for him with her own hands.

Hatred almost overwhelmed him, but he found that he couldn't bring himself to do anything to Yue'er.

He threw her into the deserted palace to fend for herself and deliberately avoided inquiring about her. However, he did not expect that she was pregnant and had an affair with a eunuch.

He became a being that he himself could not understand. Every night when the poison took effect, he would ask someone to torture her.

Bai Ri couldn't help but care about her situation.

One time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and went to the remote palace to find her, but he heard her moans.

She would rather choose a non-innocent way to ask for food for Yun'er, but she never thought of begging him.

OK! He satisfied her!

The days seemed to have returned to normal. He no longer paid attention to Yue'er's situation. Apart from the news he should know and the training of secret guards, he was either in despair or playing chess with Zhou Gong.

That day he woke up early for the rare occasion and heard the news of Yue'er's death.

The imperial physician said that Yue'er died from years of torture and exhaustion of her energy and blood.

Maybe it was because it had been a long time, he listened calmly, calmly granted Yue'er the title of concubine, calmly had her buried, and calmly granted Yun'er a mansion and made him a king.

Calmly watching the sunlight emitting hazy colorful light.

He wandered aimlessly in the palace, smiling as he watched the virgin palace maids who happened to meet him.

He increasingly liked to make everyone like Yue'er, and he gradually couldn't stand the sight of pure and innocent women.

The moon isn’t even clean, so how can these people be clean?

Yue'er hasn't even left the palace, so why should these people leave?

As his memory returned, the emperor looked at the second woman in front of him who was willing to block the sword for him. He clenched his fists and used almost all of his rationality to not stop the conspiracy against Minister Chen.

The tip of the sword drew a cold light in the air, accompanied by a cry of "Dog Emperor, give me your life!"

The sword was pressed against Shen Xingxi's back.

Prince Yun's hands were almost shaking after he shot the hidden weapon. At this moment, he hated himself for not rushing over at the first moment.

I also hate the princess's calmness in preferring to get hurt rather than expose herself to the martial arts competition.

The prince heaved a sigh of relief immediately, "Fortunately, Princess Yun had some foresight and knew to block the sword for my father."

Prince Yun's eyes were bloodshot, and his resentment towards the prince reached its peak at this moment.

He also wanted the prince to experience the pain of having his loved ones stabbed in front of him!

The assassin died on the spot due to the poison from King Yun's hidden weapon, and his hand loosened on the hilt and he fell to the ground.

The scene turned into Shen Xingxi lying on the table with a small section of sword stuck diagonally in his back.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then he was the first to react and shouted loudly: "Call the imperial physician!"

At this time, all the men in black were killed and the chaotic scene returned to order.

All the court officials knelt on the ground to plead guilty and asked if the emperor was seriously injured.

The imperial physician rushed over and took the emperor's pulse immediately.

Only the Crown Prince's Consort asked weakly, "Your Majesty, how is Princess Yun?"

The prince shouted angrily, "Shut up! The emperor and the queen haven't finished taking the pulse yet, how can it be Princess Yun's turn!"

The Crown Princess' lips moved and tears flowed from her eyes.

It was clearly Princess Yun who blocked the sword for the Emperor, and the Emperor and the Empress were not injured, so why couldn't they show it to Princess Yun first?

Prince Yun clenched his back teeth and stared at the imperial physician who was moving slowly.

Time seemed to be blocked by an hourglass, and he felt that the action of the imperial physician placing the handkerchief on the princess' wrist took an exceptionally long time.
