Xu Minghuang was confused, and couldn't wait to ask: "What did my brother say?"

Madam Cheng paused on purpose and did not continue. Instead, she yawned and said, "I am tired after a day of worshipping Buddha. Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."

"Stop!" Xu Minghuang stopped him and said, "I must explain to this palace today what exactly does my brother mean?"

Seeing Xu Minghuang's anxious expression, Madam Cheng curved her lips and said, "My husband died because of you. We can't just let it go. How about the Queen kowtow three hundred times in front of the Bodhisattva?"

Seeing that Madam Cheng refused to say anything, Xu Minghuang gritted his teeth, turned around, knelt on the cushion, and kowtowed to the Buddha statue.

The person behind him just watched calmly.

The moon is bright and clear

A man knelt in front of the mat and kept coughing, from one to three hundred.

An hour has passed.

Xu Minghuang stood up shakily and looked at Madam Cheng: "Can you tell me now?"

Madam Cheng looked at him with some pity and said with a sigh, "Master Xu said that the Xu family's eldest branch has never had a legitimate daughter."

These words were like a slap in the face to Xu Minghuang.

This means not recognizing her.

"I asked Lord Xu how to deal with the Empress, and Lord Xu said it had nothing to do with him." Madam Cheng looked at Xu Minghuang's pale face and felt very happy. She continued, "The Empress has now experienced the consequences of being ignored by her relatives and pointed at by thousands of people. If she had known this would happen, why did she do it in the first place?"

After saying that, Madam Cheng got up and left.

Sometimes killing a person is far less satisfying than having your heart broken.

She stood in front of the Buddhist temple, her whole body numb. She looked up at the dark sky outside the window and recalled the days she spent with her brother.

He personally taught her music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Xu Feng had shouldered heavy responsibilities since childhood and had single-handedly carried the Xu family on his shoulders, and had suffered a lot. However, although she did not have the title of a noble lady, her life was no less comfortable than that of the noble ladies in Kyoto.

Since when did the relationship between brother and sister change?

It was probably her first time entering the palace, and she was dazzled by the prosperity of the capital. She saw from afar Queen Liu standing in the imperial garden wearing a golden phoenix crown, and the concubines knelt down to salute Queen Liu.

She happened to catch the eye of the Northern Qi Emperor, who made her his concubine despite opposition and used secret medicine to force her to become pregnant.

My brother was very angry about all this.

The sound of footsteps came to my ears.

Xu Minghuang suddenly raised his head and looked at the person coming under the moonlight with tears in his eyes.

The word "brother" is like a thorn in my throat.

Xu Feng looked at the petite figure and felt uncomfortable.

"I thought that since you had a child, you would support this child to take the position. After all, I underestimated the relationship between you and Bu Yan." There was still some doubt in Xu Minghuang's tone.

Xu Feng sighed softly, but hesitated to take that step. He lowered his voice and said, "Given your temper, once that child takes the throne, he will kill anyone who has the chance to threaten the throne, including me."

"How could I do that!" Xu Minghuang shook his head unwillingly: "You are my brother, how could I attack you?"

In the past, Xu Feng thought she was just willful and proud, but he didn't expect that in order to force him to appear, she would not even let go of the dead.

Xu Minghuang is the perfect example of someone who will do anything to achieve his goal.

"That's your own nephew." She covered her face and cried, blaming it all on the loss of her child, which caused her emotional instability and led to these infuriating things.

Xu Feng's eyes became complicated. He looked at the sister he raised with no sympathy, only anger: "You know that the Northern Qi Emperor is the enemy who killed our parents, and you dare to use his blood to take revenge. Isn't this deceiving yourself?"

Even if Xu Minghuang got angry and killed the Emperor of Northern Qi, Xu Feng would do his best to rescue Xu Minghuang.

More than ten years ago, the Emperor of Northern Qi was attacked by bandits while on tour and was rescued by the Xu couple who were passing by. Before the Xu couple could introduce themselves, the Emperor of Northern Qi strangled all the people they brought with them.

The reason was that the Xu couple saw the Emperor of Northern Qi begging for mercy from the robbers, so they killed him.

In order to protect the poor emperor's heart, he killed the loyal minister who saved his life.

When her parents died tragically, Xu's mother was more than seven months pregnant.

Scenes after scenes lingered in Xu Feng's mind.

How could he forget such hatred?

However, Xu Minghuang, whom he raised with his own hands, became pregnant with the Northern Qi emperor's child for the sake of wealth and glory, which Xu Feng could not tolerate.

"I didn't kill your child." Xu Feng said.

Xu Minghuang was excited: "It's Lu Jingning!"

She has always known that Lu Jingning was involved behind the scenes. Xu Minghuang approached Xu Feng and said, "Brother, I am your sister. Lu Jingning is just using you. And Bu Yan is ruthless. When he takes the throne, he will never let you stay by his side."

Xu Feng looked at his crazy sister and sighed.

"What about Chang Ling? Don't you care? If Chang Ling knew that you were involved in the rebellion, do you think she would still be loyal to you?" Xu Minghuang said excitedly: "There is still room for retention. Northern Qi still belongs to the Zhao family. Bu Yan, he is just a bastard, unworthy of the position!"

Suddenly a sneer was heard in the silent night.

"There is no cure."

Xu Minghuang was stunned for a moment, and raised his eyes to look towards the voice. A slender figure gradually emerged under the moonlight.

"Bu Yan!" She said angrily, "It was you who instigated my brother!"

Bu Yan walked over here, with a sneer on his face, and said to Xu Feng: "The guards at the foot of the mountain are here. She guessed that you would definitely come, so she deployed them early. The dismissed guards only obey her. The dog emperor promised her that he would use you in exchange for her lifetime of wealth and glory."

Having his thoughts exposed, Xu Minghuang looked guilty and grabbed Xu Feng: "Brother, don't listen to his nonsense. I am your sister, you can't abandon me. How are you going to explain to our parents in the future?"

Xu Feng pried open her fingers one by one, his eyes cold: "From today on, you have been expelled from the Xu family tree by me. Your future life and death has nothing to do with the Xu family."
