After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

"Luo Hanfeng rebelled, and Prince Jin was forced to his death on the Zhaixing Tower."

"The entire Xie family was executed, and the crown prince was forced to beg in the streets."

"Xie Mingzhu saved me and told me everything. Only then did I realize that Xie Mingzhu had known my identity all along. She had always resented us for causing her family to be destroyed and for her to recognize a thief as her father, so she planned to take revenge."

"My elder brother was forced to his death by her, and Xie Tongchen was indirectly killed because she refused to help him."

"As for me," Xie Yuze sneered, "she said she's about to become empress, about to rule the world, and plans to give up everything else. As long as I'm alright, I'll still be her brother."

These words disgusted everyone in the Xie family.

They had already put what Xie Yuze had just said into practice.

Only they knew in their hearts that without Xie Xing, they would really have developed exactly as Xie Yuze had predicted.

only--

"Why did Luo Hanfeng rebel and force Prince Jin to his death at the Star-Picking Tower?"

Xie Yuhe couldn't help but ask.

Xie Yuze shook his head, "I don't know much, I only know the result, not the process."

After all, in his previous life he was just a playboy with no real power. He only knew so much after the Xie family fell into decline. Xie Yuze, filled with hatred, dragged his crippled body and investigated bit by bit.

"Then..." Xie Yuhe continued, "What about Xie Xing?"

A trace of sorrow flashed in Xie Yuze's eyes.

"Xie Xing was protected by her brother from the Song family, but in the end she still couldn't escape Luo Hanfeng's clutches. In order to save me, she was captured by Luo Hanfeng and tortured beyond recognition."

"He died right in front of me."

The room fell silent upon hearing this.

Madam Xie was the first to slap her thigh, tears welling up in her eyes, "What a tragedy! What a tragedy!"

"How could such a thing happen to our Xie family?"

Madam Xie staggered repeatedly, her face deathly pale. She almost lost her balance and would have fainted if the nanny beside her hadn't been supporting her.

"How could this happen?" Madam Xie clutched her chest, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.

No matter what, Xie Xing was still a piece of her flesh.

Upon hearing that she had been tortured beyond recognition, with pieces of flesh being scraped off her body, Madam Xie opened her mouth and let out a mournful cry before kneeling on the ground.

"My daughter, that's my daughter!"

"How cruel must they be? What utterly depraved things must they have done for that beast to treat my daughter like this!"

They never cherished their favored daughter, but after the Xie family fell into decline, they actually helped them out, and in the end, she even lost her life to save Xie Yuze.

Where is Xie Mingzhu?

She caused the deaths of her three brothers, leading to the wrongful deaths of the entire Xie family!

Doesn't her heart ache?

What is her heart made of?

Tears streamed down Madam Xie's face.

Why are they so different?

Xie Yuhe remained relatively calm, after all, he had already heard this ending from Xie Xing's inner thoughts, the only thing he didn't know was Xie Xing's fate.

It turns out her ending was just as tragic as theirs.

“Perhaps she wasn’t the real Xie Xing.” Xie Tongchen, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up: “She is different from us. Everything we have experienced is just a series of words in her eyes.”

"Her arrival was solely to complete her mission."

"The real Xie Xing is long dead."

Xie Tongchen said this with a cold face.

"Ah!" Madam Xie couldn't accept such terrible news, and her eyes rolled back as she fainted.

"Madam!" the nanny beside her exclaimed and quickly helped Madam Xie up.

The room became chaotic again.

The crowd hurriedly summoned a doctor to take Madam Xie's pulse. After the doctor administered a few acupuncture needles to calm Madam Xie down, Xie Yuhe finally spoke:

"Whether she is Xie Xing or not, at this moment, she is Xie Xing."

"If it weren't for her, we would have ended up in the same situation."

"She came to save us."

Xie Tongchen remained silent.

Because Xie Yuhe was right.

Putting aside the fact that they were able to hear Xie Xing's thoughts, how much kindness has the Xie family owed Xie Xing?

Xie Xing risked his life to save Xie Yuze from the cliff. If Xie Xing hadn't pulled Xie Yuze back, there wouldn't be a Xie Yuze today.

And not long ago, without Xie Xing, Xie Tongchen's head would have been hanging on the enemy's city wall.

If what he himself said is true, and this Xie Xing might not be the real Xie Xing, then it means that they are not even related to Xie Xing by blood; they are complete strangers.

She saved the lives of the entire Xie family, and the Xie family was spared a certain death because of her.

Xie family...

How much do I owe her?!

Everyone felt extremely sad.

Xie Jiaojiao finally spoke, saying, "Whether it's true or false, she is definitely Xie Xing."

"Now we still need to focus on the present and make up for all the things we owed Xing'er before."

Xie Ansheng nodded silently: "Jiaojiao is right."

"So, where is Xie Xing?"

Everyone looked at Xie Yuze and Xie Tongchen.

After Xie Xing was secretly rescued by Jun Lanjin, he went out and returned with Xie Yuze and the others.

Xie Yuze said, "Since the Xie family is innocent, Prince Jin naturally sent Xie Xing back to the palace. He should be in the Fifth Princess's palace now."

After all, Xie Xing is still the Fifth Princess's study companion.

at that time.

In the palace of the Fifth Princess.

After Xie Xing was sent back, he was greeted with a big hug from the Fifth Princess.

The hug completely stunned Xie Xing.

"Fifth Princess, what are you doing?"

The Fifth Princess couldn't hide her joy. She coughed lightly and said, "Of course, I welcome you back to be my study companion."

"This princess has specially prepared a table full of delicious food for you."

"You certainly didn't eat anything good while you were in the prison, did you?"

Xie Xing glanced at the Fifth Princess with suspicion.

Is Luo Mengfei that kind of person?

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Xie Xing said helplessly, "Princess, please just say what you have to say."

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, Luo Mengfei couldn't stop smiling and said smugly, "From now on, you can call me Princess Sister-in-law."

"What?!" Xie Xing doubted his ears.

Luo Mengfei was in a good mood and didn't mind repeating it again: "Father has already bestowed a marriage upon me and General Xie. From now on, I, the princess, will be your second sister-in-law."

"Since you're somewhat sensible, and I find you pleasing to the eye, I'll reluctantly treat you a little better."

Xie Xing: "..."

She was silent for a moment.

He couldn't help but think to himself, "This emperor really should bestow a marriage upon the Xie family."

First it was her and Xie Mingzhu, and then it was Xie Jiaojiao.

Now, Xie Tongchen and the Fifth Princess have been betrothed.

Xie Tongchen was heartbroken by Xie Mingzhu, so how could he agree to marry the Fifth Princess?

Moreover, becoming a prince consort means being forever barred from power.
