Reborn to overthrow the throne, I became the new emperor's dark moonlight

Su Heting smiled bitterly, "You'll reap what you sow."

His emotions were too overwhelming, and he ultimately failed to suppress the poison. As he spoke, blood oozed from the corners of his mouth.

Qiao Xi finally saw his eyes, which were as red as blood.

And the slap mark on his face that hadn't faded.

"your face?"

When Su Heting had been tormenting her before, she had often deliberately scratched and tickled him. Qiao Xi didn't remember what happened last night and wasn't sure if she had hit herself in the face.

There were only two people in the room, and given her previous personality, she was very suspicious, and she couldn't think of a reason why Su Heting hit himself.

Then he heard Su Heting say four more words, "You brought this upon yourself."

The use of two idioms in a row made Qiao Xi mistakenly believe that Su Heting had used aphrodisiacs, and that she had beaten him because of his ridiculous sexual intercourse, which even triggered the poison. In desperation, she cursed, "You, you really deserve it."

"Well, you deserve it."

He stroked Qiao Xi's head with his chin, "I won't do that again. I'm going to be away for a few days. You stay in the mansion and wait for me to come back."

Qiao Xi guessed that he was going to seek treatment from Su Que. She was still angry and said in a bad tone, "Let me go first."

Su Heting let go of her hand and said, "Princess, please help me change my clothes."

Qiao Xi lifted the quilt and noticed that both of them had changed into new undershirts. She knew that Su Heting had arranged them for her afterwards.

No matter how angry she was, she couldn't bear to watch Su Heting die from the poison. Qiao Xi helped him up and put on his outer robe.

Su Heting lowered his eyes and looked at her with a smile on his lips.

They were married and loved each other deeply. He drew her eyebrows and combed her hair, and she helped him change his clothes. This was the married life he and Qiao Xi had imagined countless times.

Su Heting lowered his head and rested it on Qiao Xi's forehead, then closed his eyes.

He wanted to tell her that he was her brother the Crown Prince.

But he was poisoned again, and he didn't know what the future would hold. "During the days when I'm away, if there's anything, please help me deal with it."

Xibaoer, wait for me.

If I have a chance to survive, I will come back and confess my identity to you.

If there is no antidote to this poison, then just pretend that your brother the Crown Prince died five years ago, and everything I have will become a help to you.

Qiao Xi's sadness and pain last night broke Su Heting's heart. He couldn't bear to give her hope, so as to prevent her from experiencing the pain of losing her lover again.

Qiao Xi sensed that Su Heting was in a very bad condition and wondered how he could still be so calm and relaxed. She quickly helped him put on his clothes, put on a casual outfit herself, and called out to the door, "Chenshan."

Chen Shan pushed the door open and walked in. The moment he saw Su Heting, his face changed drastically, "Your Highness, you..."

You've had the poison attack again. This is fatal.

The rest of his words were stopped by Su Heting's cold eyes.

He hurriedly helped Su Heting out, "Someone, prepare the car."

Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment, then followed, "I'll go with you."

But Su Heting stopped him, "The palace cannot be without someone to take charge of the overall situation. Don't worry, Princess. I will be back soon."

Qiao Xi always felt that Su Heting was a little weird today. When Su Heting left and Ji Yao came to her house, her weird feeling became even worse.

"Qiao Xi, it was you who poisoned Brother Su, wasn't it?"

Ji Yao was furious.

Qiao Xi's expression remained calm, but she was thinking, Lou Xin had said that Su Heting's poison was a secret, and only a few confidants knew about it.

He had followed Su Heting for five years, but he didn't know what poison Su Heting was poisoned with. It can be seen that Su Heting's poisoning was kept secret very well.

Why was it so publicized today that even Ji Yao knew about it?

"Speak now, did you kill the prince? You even dared to hit him. Aren't you being too arrogant?"

Seeing Qiao Xi silent, Ji Yao reached out to push her.

But Qiao Xi twisted her wrist with her backhand, "How dare you! This is the Jiangbei Palace, and I am the Jiangbei Princess. It is not your turn to act rashly here."

She seemed to understand Su Heting's intention.

He deliberately let Ji Yao think that she was the one who poisoned him, and used Ji Yao's mouth to tell the emperor.

Let the emperor know that she, Qiao Xi, has never slacked off in her mission and has always been plotting to take Su Heting's life. As for what the emperor is thinking about Su Heting now, Qiao Xi, the sword, doesn't know. She just needs to obey orders.

Although Su Heting was ill, he still entrusted the affairs of the mansion to her. This was also telling the emperor that she had won Su Heting's trust and that conquering the Xinjiang North Army was just around the corner.

The servants in the mansion had Su Heting's instructions, so no one dared to doubt her, and they would even obey her.

Especially since Su Heting was slapped, not only did she not pursue the matter, but she condoned it. The emperor would believe that Su Heting was bewitched by her.

"Princess, would you like me to take the person away?"

Butler Yi, who was temporarily replacing Liang Shi, appeared at the door and asked respectfully.

Qiao Xi's eyebrows turned slightly, and she said thoughtfully, "Butler Yi, please go and do your work. I will handle this myself."

Without any hesitation, Butler Yi bowed and left.

Just as Qiao Xi thought, Steward Yi's heart was also in turmoil at this moment. The prince was such a great figure, and who was not afraid of his fierce methods over the years?

She beat the prince but was still fine. The prince didn't blame her at all. This shows how important the princess is in the prince's heart. How could he dare to neglect her in the slightest?

Naturally, he would never think that the slap was given by the prince himself, and no one who knew about this would think so.

Qiao Xi let go of Ji Yao and warned in a low voice, "Watch your mouth, or don't blame me for being rude."

She used the identity of a dark factory to talk to her.

"Is it really you?"

Ji Yao was shocked. "Didn't you say you wanted Brother Su to surrender to the court? Why did you want to harm him?"

"I have my own arrangements."

Qiao Xi looked at Ji Yao and asked, "Have you made any progress with the prince during the days since you were released?"

Ji Yao thought about these days. Although Su Heting had accompanied her for dinner twice, he was very busy most of the time, either in the study or in the army.

She originally thought that Qiao Xi being punished to go to Zhuangzi was her chance, but in the end she didn't even touch the corner of Su Heting's clothes.

Now Qiao Xi is back again, and on the night she returned home, Su Heting stayed in her courtyard, and he never even suspected Qiao Xi of being poisoned.

Ji Yao heard with her own ears that Su Heting instructed the housekeeper before he left that Qiao Xi should be the priority in everything when he was not in the mansion.

What kind of curse did Qiao Xi cast on Brother Su?

While feeling jealous, Ji Yao also felt a sense of crisis.

She had written several letters to her father and grandfather these days, but no one replied, and she felt very uneasy.

Hearing Qiao Xi ask this, she was afraid that Qiao Xi would think she was useless and lock her back up in the yard.

He hurriedly said, "Brother Su treats me very well. Give me some more time and I will definitely succeed."

Qiao Xi supported her waist again, seeming impatient, "When the prince returns home, you must win her heart as soon as possible. My time is precious, and I really don't want to waste it dealing with him."

Ji Yao's train of thought was strange. "The prince's demands were too much, and you didn't want to serve him, so you beat him?"

What a stupid woman who doesn't know how to enjoy herself.

Qiao Xi said nothing, waved her hand, and motioned her to leave.

As she moved, something fell from her sleeve.

Ji Yao looked down and saw that it was a jade pendant hanging from a string of jasper beads. She frowned and bent down to pick it up.

When Qiao Xi saw the jade token, she seemed a little annoyed and said, "Give it to me."

Ji Yao asked, "Why is this thing in your hand?"

This reaction clearly shows that he recognizes the jade token.

Qiao Xi's heart was beating fast.

She originally wanted to test Ji Yao with a try-it attitude, but she didn't expect that she had actually seen him.

His face was calm, "His Majesty's new task is to find someone. It has nothing to do with you."

Taking the jade token from her hand, Qiao Xi seemed to react and asked, "Have you seen this?"

Ji Yao wanted Qiao Xi to die, but before she won Su Heting's heart, especially now that Qiao Xi was the boss in the mansion, she couldn't turn against her, so she nodded and said, "I've seen her before."

"Oh, when, and where?"
