The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"Mo Shu is just like that. Situ, don't take it to heart. Mo Shu is Mo Zhu's cousin, and in the Mo family, Mo Shu and Mo Zhu are competitors. Mo Shu is born arrogant, and Mo Zhu never cares about anything, so there is already a gap between the two. Now you are helping Mo Zhu. It is inevitable that he will treat you much worse." Yu Sheng explained.

Situ Yaorao finally understood why Mo Zhu didn't even want to talk to him.

Feelings are because enemies meet?

"Are we going to the Cliff of Broken Hearts now?" Situ Yaorao asked the two of them.

"Of course we have to go. No matter how much we argue, Heartbreak Cliff is the main point," Yu Sheng said. Mo Zhu seemed to agree, and stood up and walked out.

Broken Heart Cliff is located in the wild countryside west of the Imperial City. Nearby is a suspension bridge, and at the other end of the bridge is the Imperial Mausoleum. Lanlin is the first imperial mausoleum to be built here. Other imperial mausoleums are built in auspicious locations. Lanlin, on the other hand, chose to build it within the Imperial City. It is said that this prevents any unscrupulous individuals from having evil intentions towards the mausoleum.

On this side of the imperial mausoleum, where there's no suspension bridge, is the legendary Heartbreak Cliff. White orchids grow on both sides of the cliff. When Situ Yaorao and the others arrived here by carriage, there was no one around.

The fragrance of orchids makes people feel better. Here is a beautiful scene.

"Situ, let's find a place to rest. This is a matter between them, and we shouldn't get involved." After Yu Sheng got off the carriage, she pulled Situ Yaorao away from where Mo Zhu was.

Although it was far away, it wasn't that far. It was just a little more hidden. It wouldn't be discovered. As for what Mo Zhu said and did, I could still hear it clearly from here.

"Didn't you say you wanted to stay away?" Situ Yaorao asked in a low voice.

"If we stay away, won't we know what this idiot said to Princess Wuyan? This idiot can't think straight when he sees Princess Wuyan. If we don't keep an eye on him, who knows what might happen." Yu Sheng replied in a low voice. Situ Yaorao twitched her lips when she heard this.

Mo Shu and his men were indeed efficient, and soon, Princess Wuyan's sedan chair arrived.

When the woman you love deeply appears before you after not seeing her for many years, what expression should you use?

Mo Zhu looked at the sedan chair and suddenly became nervous. He looked at the purple sedan chair nervously and whispered, "Princess Wuyan?"

The man's voice trembled slightly, obviously due to excitement.

Princess Wuyan had imagined many times the scenario of her meeting this man again. She even thought that perhaps she would only see him again when he died.

However, when she heard his voice, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart. Princess Wuyan slowly opened the curtain of the sedan chair. An ugly face covered with scars was revealed.

When Mo Zhu saw her face, his expression froze.

Princess Wuyan took in the scene. A sneer lingered in her heart, yet she walked out without a flicker of emotion. Her eyes, seemingly alluring, gazed at the man with a tender gaze, as if he were her lover.

Mo Zhu loved her eyes so much.

When they first met, it was because of this look that he was so captivated by her that he was willing to do anything to help her. And now, even if she became ugly, he still wanted to be good to her.

Mo Zhu never doubted his own heart.

"Long time no see." Princess Wuyan's voice sounded with a hint of coldness. Mo Zhu nodded after hearing this and said, "I thought I would never see you again in this life."

"If someone hadn't invited me here, I don't think I would have ever seen you in my life."

"Then I have to thank that person."

"Perhaps. Why do you want to see me?"

"Is there any other reason to want to see the person you like?" Mo Zhu asked back.

"You really don't need a reason. But... I'm not the woman you like. You should know this better than anyone else. If you liked me, how could you have let me become like this?" Wu Yan said coldly. At the end, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

"You still hate me." Mo Zhu sighed.

"Of course I hate you. If it weren't for you, my face wouldn't be like this. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have such a rollercoaster ride. If it weren't for you... I wouldn't be unable to love someone. And I wouldn't..." Princess Wuyan didn't finish her words. The deep sadness in her eyes made it unclear who she was thinking of.

What Mo Zhu feared most was Princess Wuyan's appearance. For a moment, he was at a loss: "You...what do you want from me? I'm willing to do anything. As long as you're happy."

"See? I told you this guy's brain went haywire the moment he saw Princess Wuyan?" Yu Sheng gnashed with hatred in the dark. Situ Yaorao felt the same way. Princess Wuyan was clearly being unreasonable, but Mo Zhu was willing to do anything for her.

"Are you really okay with anything?" Princess Wuyan looked at Mo Zhu with a smile.

Mo Zhu nodded, his face serious. Seeing him like this, Princess Wu Yan smiled even more beautifully: "Do you still remember the legend of this Heartbreak Cliff?"

"Of course I remember. You heard the legend of the Cliff of Broken Heart when you and I left the palace for the first time. At that time, you said that if there was someone who treated you sincerely, you would be willing to die." Mo Zhu said.

"Yes, you are thoughtful. Mozhu, you said you love me. And you always want me to forgive you, so why don't you learn from that farmhand and die to prove your will. If a miracle happens on the mountain when you die, I will believe you. I will die with you." Princess Wuyan bewitched.

Mo Zhu's eyes flashed when he heard this.

Meanwhile, in the dark, Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaorao with a strange expression: "Situ, are you a crow's mouth?"

"Why blame me?" Situ Yaorao looked innocent.

"Well, do you agree?" Princess Wuyan looked at Mo Zhu and asked. Mo Zhu became flustered when he heard this. He had never expected that Princess Wuyan would make such a request.

"What? You don't dare? You don't dare to prove whether you love me or not?" The mocking look in Princess Wuyan's eyes became even stronger.

"I...are you serious?" Mo Zhu looked at Princess Wuyan and asked coldly.

"Of course I'm serious. You always said you were sincere, but sincerity is something you can't see. So, if you really want me to believe you're sincere, then jump. If the white orchids on this mountain turn red, I'll believe you."

Princess Wuyan's tone was cold.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zhu looked at the woman and smiled: "Okay, if this is your wish." After that, Mo Zhu walked to the edge of the cliff.

Princess Wuyan was stunned. She didn't expect Mozhu to really jump down.

Just as Mo Zhu was about to jump, Mo Shu came running over from nowhere and shouted, "If you dare to jump, I will kill this woman."

This one sentence made Mo Zhu stop in his tracks.

Turning around, she saw Mo Shu's sword pointed at the princess' neck.

Princess Wuyan saw this and laughed. Her laughter was wild and unbridled: "Haha, haha! Is this your plan? First you're going to jump, and then you're going to conspire with others to put on a show? Mozhu, you're such a coward. If you really love me, then jump. Even if I die, I'll be happy. At least, it will prove that there are people in this world who truly love me."

Princess Wuyan's words were full of sarcasm.

Mo Zhu heard this but did not move.

The anticipation in Princess Wuyan's eyes gradually faded, replaced by deep indifference.

"Princess Wuyan, we in the Mo family agreed to bring you out, but not to let you harm the future head of the Mo family." Mo Shu reminded coldly.

"How funny! If this princess really wanted to hurt him, he would have died eight hundred times already."

"Princess, don't play tricks." Mo Shu said and left again.

Only the princess and Mo Zhu were visible. They sat side by side, a strange atmosphere lingering between them.

After a while, Mo Zhu said, "Princess, what happened back then was my fault."

"You went to so much trouble to bring me here just to tell me this?" The woman looked at Mo Zhu sarcastically.

"Over the years, I have never forgotten you. I never thought I could ever forgive you. If you hadn't trusted me, you wouldn't have ruined your appearance. If I hadn't insisted, you wouldn't have been forced to come to see me at your most heartbroken. Back then, I was young and reckless, and I hurt the princess. This is the thing I regret most in my life."

"You have said these words more than once." Princess Wuyan sighed.

"Princess, I have never said a single thing in all these years. But today, I really want to say it."

"But it doesn't matter."
