The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Hearing Tan Tai Yun Yi's words, Xue Ming calmly broke off a branch and sniffed the plum blossom's fragrance. His voice was ethereal, "The plum blossom blooms nine times, and it's extremely poisonous and cold in nature. Anyone who takes it will die. It can be used with other medicines. The fragrance of plum blossoms can cause hallucinations, and if someone guides them during the hallucinations, they can remember everything about themselves. It's the best medicine for those who have lost their memory." Xue Ming said this and looked at Tan Tai Yun Yi: "Where is Tan Tai Wu Yue Ren?"

"He..." Tan Tai Yun Yi was a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't come with Tan Tai Wu Yue. Just as he was about to explain why Tan Tai Wu Yue was late, he heard a cold and clear voice slowly say: "I am here."

Hearing that voice, Situ Yaorao's heart trembled. She turned around and saw the man in red slowly approaching them, each step punctuated by peerless grace. Every movement was exactly as it had been before. Nothing was different. Tan Tai Wu Yue, he was still Tan Tai Wu Yue, and regardless of whether he had lost his memory, he would always be as striking as before. He was just as captivating.

Situ Yaorao just stared at him, unwilling to look away. The usually calm Tantai Wuyue, sensing the gaze that had been following him, couldn't help but glance at her calmly. He saw this seemingly charming woman staring straight at him, sadness evident in her eyes.

As he looked at him, he felt a mixture of nostalgia and excitement, but in the end, it all faded into indifference. She stood there, yet her previously calm heart began to flutter and beat again.

Just like the last time they met, he clearly didn't know who she was, but he couldn't help but think about her. Perhaps this was what love was, Tantai Wuyue thought.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince will be late too." Xue Ming's voice sounded with a hint of mockery.

"There are too many guards in the City Lord's Mansion. It will take some time to escape." Tan Tai Wu Yue explained.

"Oh?" Xue Ming glanced at him with interest, then glanced at Situ Yaorao, who was just looking at Tan Tai Wu Yue. A strange look flashed in his eyes, and he said, "As agreed, I will restore your memory. Your Highness should be mentally prepared by now, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue nodded and said, "We're all ready. We're just waiting for the miracle doctor to take action."

"Miracle doctor?" Xue Ming looked at Tan Tai Yun Yi strangely and laughed. "If someone called me a miracle doctor, I would think they were mocking me. After all, I'm best known for not saving people in need. But now, seeing the dignified Crown Prince calling me a miracle doctor is really funny, extremely funny!"

After Xue Ming finished speaking, he burst into laughter, but no one knew what he was laughing at.

Tan Tai Wu Yue looked at him with a hint of confusion in his eyes, completely puzzled as to what was wrong with Xue Ming.

"Alright, stop laughing. Let's detoxify the prince first." Tan Tai Yun Yi said impatiently. He glanced at the sky and had a plan in mind.

"Well! Let's get back to the topic." Xue Ming's expression became much more normal. He looked at Situ Yaorao and Tan Tai Yunyi and said, "I have treated some people with amnesia. People's brains are actually very strange. They may remember a lot of things because of drugs, or they may remember them because of the people around them. Occasionally, they may even remember them because of one thing. So, I'm not sure how you will remember it, but let's use the simplest method first." After Xue Ming finished speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his arms.

"What is this?" Looking at the jade pendant in Xue Ming's hand, Tan Tai Yun Yi was surprised.

"This is the emerald jade from the snowy mountains, the one I always wear." After saying this, Xue Ming held the jade pendant towards the sun. The sun shone on the jade pendant, and the emerald light shone brightly. It was so gorgeous that people looked at it.

"Burn the peach blossom branch." Xue Ming gestured to Tan Tai Yun Yi to burn the peach blossom he had taken earlier. Tan Tai Yun Yi quickly did as he was told.

Although Xue Ming was unreliable, he was the most convincing when it came to treating illnesses. No matter what the ailment, he seemed to be able to easily cure it. Even... the most terrifying Yue Hua, he still had a way. Therefore, Tan Tai Yun Yi never neglected his orders.

After burning the peach blossoms, Xue Ming pulled Tan Tai Wu Yue between the emerald jade and the peach blossoms. Tan Tai Wu Yue felt a flash of light before his eyes and then fainted.

After doing all this, Xue Ming looked at Situ Yaorao again: "This is the first step now. If Tan Tai Wu Yue doesn't get better, you will be needed."

"Need me?" Situ Yaorao was confused.

"As I've said, there are many ways to restore a person's memory, and we don't have time to slowly restore Tan Tai Wu Yue's memory right now. So, of course, we have to stimulate him. If he wakes up later and has no memory, we'll need to stage a scene. A scene that will make him feel excruciating pain."

Xue Ming finished speaking and gave Situ Yaorao a deep look, which made Situ Yaorao shudder.

Tantai Yunyi, standing by, also frowned. After all, he knew exactly what kind of person this person was. He just hoped Xueming wouldn't do anything too extreme.

In this dream, there is darkness.

There is never any light in Tan Tai Wu Yue's dreams.

Sitting in the darkness, feeling his fingers, Tantai Wuyue sneered: "Sure enough... It's still the same as before. There is nothing in my dream."

Tan Tai Wu Yue's tone was hollow, with a hint of helplessness.

While he was meditating, he heard a burst of quarreling. This forced Tantai Wuyue to take a closer look. Walking outside in the darkness, he saw a large mansion with vermilion and green tiles.

This house has a very domineering name, called the Imperial Palace.

This is where the emperor of Lanlin lives.

Inside the palace, the queen held him, who was only six years old, in her arms, and looked coldly at the woman who looked like his biological mother kneeling on the ground. She grasped the dagger in his hand and stabbed him fiercely.

"No!" Tantai Wuyue screamed, his heart icing with fear. A bright light flashed, and the image before his eyes changed again. He was now holding a dagger, listening to the Queen speaking to him.

"Wu Yue, you must remember that from today on, I am your mother. And this woman is nothing. If you can't remember, I'm afraid you will have nothing. Do you understand?"

The woman's voice was full of temptation. The child finally grasped the dagger, looked at the woman, and shouted with a smile as beautiful as a flower, "Mother."

This call of "Mother" seemed to have exhausted his last bit of rationality and his last bit of humanity.

Soon, the scene shifted, and he became the crown prince, the legitimate son of the empress. He was respected and admired by all. Wherever he went, countless women followed him. However, the admiration in those women's eyes was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart. After all... he wasn't as perfect as they imagined.

What they liked was the Tan Tai Wu Yue that the Empress had created, the Tan Tai Wu Yue who only knew how to fake a smile, the Tan Tai Wu Yue who could still remain shameless even after being forced to commit a serious mistake. But no one paid attention to the real him.

Gradually, his temper began to change.

He began to treat everyone coldly. When the queen asked him about it, he simply said that it was a necessity as a king. After hearing this, the queen said nothing more.

For her, as long as she can be the queen mother and live a glorious life, she will not care what happens in the middle. In the beginning, she chose him as a chess piece, so this chess piece will definitely be used forever.

It's just exploitation.

Later, the scene shifted to that night. The queen brought him a bowl of medicine. To avoid the queen's suspicion, he drank it. He felt a burning sensation all over his body, and the queen then left her personal maid in the palace.

He kept running, not wanting to be caught, nor wanting to do anything he didn't want to do. He ran away, escaped from the palace, and went to a brothel.

But unexpectedly, he met an extremely strange woman...

When she looked at him, she didn't feel any admiration. Her name was Situ Yaorao, and it was said that she loved him very much, but she didn't even know what he looked like. He had a slight interest in her.

Later, step by step, he became stuck in the mud.

He understood what love is.

Tantai Wuyue looked at these images. After reaching this point, he felt the images flash and everything disappeared. A sharp pain in his head woke him up.

Standing up and sitting beside the peach blossom branch, Tantai Wuyue's expression was extremely ugly...
