The ancient mythical beast quickly wears a cruel and ruthless

In the system's original space.

Su Li absorbed the merit power rewarded for completing the task with ease and converted it into his own spiritual power.

[Host sister, the next mission has appeared, should we continue?] Tuanzi appeared.

"Of course." Su Li nodded.

She couldn't wait to know the truth of what happened.

[Okay! ] Tuanzi responded.

Soon, Su Li turned into a ray of white light and disappeared into the system's original space.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself lying on a gorgeous golden nanmu step-out bed, with a setting moon hanging outside the window.

"Your Highness, it's time to get up and take a bath."

A maid dressed in palace attire said respectfully, "Today is your big day. The procedures are complicated, so you need to prepare early."

"Yeah." Su Li stood up and, served by a group of palace maids, entered the hot spring pool next door.

The huge hot spring pool was filled with milk and rose petals. After Su Li entered, she dismissed all the serving palace maids.

She took out her original body's memory orb and began to read it.

Her original identity was Xiahou Xi, the daughter of a royal concubine and the only princess in the entire Xiahou Dynasty.

Her father was a wise ruler who acted decisively. He may have killed too many people when he was young, and his descendants died out.

When Xiahou Xi was born, the old Emperor Xiahou had three sons and one daughter, and this was still the case when she reached the age of 15.

As the only princess of the Xiahou Dynasty, she was beautiful and powerful, and lived a life of luxury.

Being favored by her father, mother, and brother, she developed a lazy character, willing to sit and wait for death.

However, she never imagined that one day she would become the Crown Princess!

Just because her father fell ill suddenly, her three brothers thought that the old emperor would not live long.

A tragic battle for the throne begins.

It was impossible to defend against the open and concealed attacks. In the end, all three brothers were killed. She was the only one left in her generation.

In fact, the old emperor still had brothers, but he sent them to guard the border close to the barbarian land.

The old emperor had seized the country from his brothers, so naturally he was unwilling to give it up.

With one imperial decree, he made Xiahou Xi, a princess who only lived a life of idleness and waiting for death, become the crown princess and the future empress!

The first thing after becoming the Crown Princess is to get married and give birth to royal offspring.

In fact, the old emperor did not really want this daughter who had no ambition to become an empress. He just wanted her to give birth to excellent royal blood for him, so that he could choose an excellent grandson from among them to inherit the throne.

Thus, a marriage selection process began.

All unmarried noblemen of marriageable age are included in this selection.

Amidst all the flattery and the intentional or unintentional hints from those around her, she chose Xie Yunxiao, a gentleman with a gentle appearance and a graceful figure like a spring breeze caressing her soul, as her imperial consort.

Afterwards, she married Xie Yunxiao and moved into the East Palace.

Only then did I realize that Xie Yunxiao was not as gentle as he looked.

Jade is still jade, but it is as cold as stone.

He seemed to be forced to do so. Except for going to her room at night to get ready, he rarely spent any time with her.

She also asked him if he was unwilling to become her crown prince consort.

He said that a man should marry and have children instead of marrying into a woman's family. He felt uncomfortable and didn't know how to get along with Xia Houxi.

Xiahou Xi could understand it, so he didn't force him. Instead, he suggested to his father that Xie Yunxiao be allowed to enter the court.

The old emperor originally did not intend to let Xie Yunxiao get involved in state affairs. In his opinion, the other party was just a tool.

However, he could not resist the persuasion of his beloved daughter, so after Xia Houxi became pregnant, he let Xie Yunxiao participate in political affairs.

When Xiahou Xi's first child was born, the old emperor was extremely happy and personally named him Xiahou Cong.

He planned to let Xie Yunxiao put down the things in his hands and work hard with Xiahou Xi again to produce more royal offspring.

However, less than two months later, the old emperor, who had always been strong, suddenly died in an assassination.

After her father died, she wrote a letter to her uncle, who was only ten years older than her and lived far away at the border with foreign countries, asking him to come back and take charge of the situation.

However, the other party wrote back to let her inherit the throne with peace of mind, and he would guard the border for her.

There was no other way, Xiahou Xi could only hold her nose and become the empress, and named Xie Yunxiao as the emperor's husband, and their child Xiahou Cong as the prince.

After ascending the throne, although she did not like the government affairs, she still tried her best to study and handle them properly.

It took her ten years to turn the Xiahou Dynasty into a prosperous and flourishing country.

In the end, she died.

He died from a sword piercing his heart by the person next to him, who caught him off guard.

Afterwards, seven soul-suppressing nails and a bronze coffin trapped her soul in the palace, where she would never be able to be reborn.

However, Xie Yunxiao, the emperor's husband who killed her, took out a disguised edict and ascended to the supreme throne himself.

Even on that day, the Prime Minister's daughter Lin Ruolan was named the Queen of the Daxiao Dynasty.

Originally, she thought that the child she gave birth to would also be rejected by the two of them.

However, they treated him very well. Even after they had children, they still let her Cong'er sit on the throne of the crown prince.

At that time, she, with her soul trapped, was still feeling lucky, after all, even a tiger would not eat its own cubs.

In the second year after her death, Xiahou Cong was renamed Xie Cong by Xie Yunxiao.

In the next five years, Xie Yunxiao gradually secured his throne and planned to eliminate the uncle of the Xiahou royal family who had fought against the barbarians for more than ten years.

However, no one expected that the Emperor's Uncle Xiahou, who was known as the Jade-faced King of Hell in the frontier, would lead 800,000 cavalrymen to Kyoto.

In the end, Uncle Xiahou broke into the palace, deposed Lin Ruolan from the position of queen, and imprisoned Xie Yunxiao.

Just when everyone thought he would ascend the throne himself, he asked the fifteen-year-old prince to change his surname back to Xiahou and supported him to become the new emperor of the Xiahou Dynasty.

The night before the young prince's coronation ceremony, he sat on the steps in front of the hall, drinking and drowning his sorrows.

The young prince brought a bottle of girl's red wine and said that it was buried under the peach tree in the East Palace by Xiahou Xi when he was born.

After three rounds of drinking, Uncle Xiahou, with his eyes blurry with drunkenness, spat out a mouthful of black blood.

It turned out that the wine was poisonous!

At that time, even the dead Xiahou Xi didn't understand. It was her uncle who helped her son regain the Xiahou Dynasty, so why did her son treat him like this?

Until Xie Yunxiao, dressed in a precious dragon robe, came slowly and told Uncle Xiahou, and also let Xiahou Xi know the truth.

It turns out that he has been the child of Xie Yunxiao and Lin Ruolan from the beginning to the end!

When her child was born, Xie Yunxiao swapped it out and threw it into the mountains to be fed by wolves, tigers and leopards.
