The sudden thunder woke *** up from his dream!

She dreamed about the past again...

The Su family, the queen mother, the prince's younger brother...

She got them some...

The Su family was not executed, but all nine clans followed the Northern Expedition Army northward. Women and children were forced to do hard labor, three generations were not allowed to enter officialdom, and all males over the age of ten served as vanguard soldiers... Naturally, they had to die on the battlefield fighting against foreign enemies.

Before leaving Beijing, Grandpa Su Bushan laughed at her and said that it was enough. The Su family was a military family and it was a blessing to die on the battlefield.

My mother was given a white silk scarf to commit suicide, ignoring my father's previous dethronement order and was buried with my father as the queen...

The Queen Mother was still unwilling to give in, and hysterically asked her to order 100,000 soldiers to go to the capital to kill Chu Tianming, rescue the prince's brother, and help the prince's brother ascend to the throne...

And the prince's younger brother...

"Royal sister, I didn't kill father! He was already dead when I went in! I was just shaking because I was anxious to wake him up!"

The young man burst into tears and begged, "I don't want to die! Sister, tell Chu Tianming that I don't want to be the emperor anymore. I can be a groom and raise horses! Tell him not to kill me!"

"Okay... I'll tell them. Come on, I heard you haven't eaten for a few days, so I asked someone to cook your favorite bird's nest porridge... Have some..."

The boy did not suspect anything and drank the sweet and delicious bird's nest. Then, under her comfort, he fell into a deep sleep... He fell into an eternal dream and would never wake up again...

***Gasps for breath!

These were the best results she could achieve, on the premise of putting Da Xia first...

But no matter how many times she told herself that her choice was right, she still couldn't get rid of the nightmare of watching them die...

She took the water brought by the maid, and the cool and tasteless liquid gradually made her put away the feelings in her dream.

"Your Highness... Prince Duan is outside Yunxuan Palace. It's raining and stormy outside, but Prince Duan refuses to leave or enter the palace..."

"Chu Shiyu is outside?"

*** frowned, stood up and asked the maid to put on her coat.

It was stormy outside, and even with an umbrella, the cold raindrops still hit the hem of her skirt.

In a pavilion not far away, a tall and young figure was sitting there, and two young eunuchs were holding a palace lantern to prevent the wind and rain from blowing out the faint light.

Furious! *** walked into the pavilion quickly and shouted angrily: "It's getting even more outrageous! Why are you not going to bed in the middle of the night? What are you doing here? Guarding Liu? Will she fly away?!"

"tomorrow…"

Chu Shiyu glanced at the wind and rain outside the pavilion and replied calmly, "At the latest the day after tomorrow, I will leave the capital."

*** paused slightly. They had had dinner together before, so she naturally knew that Chu Shiyu had gone to Chu Tianming to surrender, and that leaving the capital would successfully take on the task of commanding the troops.

And now Chu Shiyu is waiting outside late at night... before leaving Beijing, racing against time, not wanting to be too far away from Liu for a moment.

Speechless and breathless, *** angrily scolded: "Then go into the hall to see her, it's better to blow the cold wind outside?"

"She should be asleep, and as a man, if I stay overnight in the palace, I'm afraid rumors will spread." Chu Shiyu explained in a calm voice.

Unable to help but roll his eyes, *** sneered: "You are entangled with Liu family to the point that everyone knows about it, and you still know that men and women should avoid suspicion?"

"My cousin and Fang Qiu are also in Yunxuan Palace. I don't want rumors about them to spread." Chu Shiyu corrected.

I was speechless, but it became dull...

*** looked at the pair of similar but younger Ruifeng eyes and said in a complicated tone: "I thought you were cold and heartless, and your character was exactly the same as his. Who would have thought that things would go to the extreme and you would be so deeply involved in the love between a man and a woman."

Chu Shiyu lowered his eyes slightly, thinking of the horrified look on his father's face when he held his eldest brother in his dream, and not long ago, when he wished his father a long life, but his father didn't know how to react for a moment...

Is he really heartless and desireless? I'm afraid he has suppressed all his selfish desires in his heart, leaving only a cold and ruthless body on the throne.

"People are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless? Whether it is for the country or the people, or being attached to one person, it is all about emotion."

The slanting raindrops drifted towards the pavilion and landed on Chu Shiyu's shoes.

"People live for a lifetime, and a hundred years later, everything will be gone. How can we tell right from wrong when we live? I just met the person I love, and I cherish the person I love."

*** listened to the accompanying sound of wind and rain, remained silent for a while, and then said softly: "But in that position, people like him are probably the best... intimidating and difficult to get close to."

"Respect is impartial and selfless, while hatred is difficult to generate."

Chu Shiyu looked at the cold night. Indeed, even though he knew that his father had created his difficult childhood and done many cruel things, it was difficult for him to hold a grudge against him...

"He wanted to create another him, but there are only similar people in the world, no two people are the same, not even father and son."

Chu Shiyu chuckled and said, "I am not him, and neither is my eldest brother, nor will Chu Shiqi and the others."

"If I am in power in the future, I will naturally have my own way of doing things. If he insists that his descendants follow him, he might as well send someone to find the elixir of immortality, which may be more reliable."

"Hehehe..."

*** couldn't help but smile. Yes, it was hard to force it. Even though she respected Chu Tianming's strength, she couldn't learn to be even a little bit cold and ruthless like him.

But she glanced at Chu Shiyu again and snorted and laughed: "Even if it can't be exactly the same, it should be similar. What does it look like to be full of love?"

Chu Shiyu disagreed and said calmly: "It is what it should be. It is too early to say these things now."

"Humph, on this point, Liu is more clear-headed than you." *** said leisurely.

Chu Shiyu's face changed slightly, and he frowned and asked, "What does the Royal Aunt mean?"

"You are about to leave the capital, so I will tell you in advance that I will adopt Liu as my adopted daughter."

Seeing Chu Shiyu's shocked expression, *** pursued him with a teasing tone.

"That is to say, my aunt will make the decision on Liu's marriage from now on. You must follow the secular rules and treat her with courtesy. Don't mess around anymore."

"what?!"

Chu Shiyu's indifference was swept away immediately, and he stood up anxiously! While looking at Yunxuan Palace in the night in surprise and suspicion, he asked anxiously: "She agreed?!"

*** raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Why don't you go in and ask her?"

He took a step towards Yunxuan Palace, but then he hesitated and turned around in hesitation. However, he gritted his teeth and was eager to know what was going on. Chu Shiyu was so anxious that he paced back and forth!

*** looked at it with a grin, full of disgust!

"Go into the palace! There are many bedrooms in the palace, and there are aunts and other elders here, what kind of rumors can spread?!"

*** angrily scolded: "Sitting here in this cold and stormy night, if you catch a cold, how can you leave the capital to take on such an important task?!"

Chu Shiyu finally stopped and looked at the aunt and said, "If the Fang family has any misunderstanding, the royal aunt must testify for my nephew."

"Humph, your other brothers are afraid that they can't even marry the daughter of the Fang family, and you still want her?"

"Come in you!"

*** led the way to Yunxuan Palace in a bad mood.
