Chapter 96 The Sequelae of the Heat Poison
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56There were excellent chefs in the mansion of Qi Yuan, even not worse than the imperial cooks. After all, Emperor Yun Su sent them here as a gift. However, Qi Yuan, the master of the mansion of Qi Yuan, didn’t need them. He insisted on cooking for Wu Xin every night.
The food was barely acceptable and eatable. However, Qi Yuan still enjoyed it. Fortunately, Wu Xin was not a picky eater. She always ate the food he cooked as long as it was not raw.
Gradually, Wu Xin became interested in cooking as an onlooker. She didn’t think it was boring and learned how to cook from Qi Yuan. The teacher’s food always looked good, but the taste had not improved at all. In contrast, the food the student made didn’t look attractive. However, the taste was much better. It became a mystery if the teacher was too bad or the student was too clever.
Cooking was regarded as their special entertainment. Every day, Qi Yuan enjoyed it so much. He worked while show

That year, Princess Xi, Kong Yue, and Xuan Zhi were also among the crowd. It felt like yesterday that they were having fun together. Wu Xin’s tears had long blurred her view and flowed down her cheeks. She had rarely cried since she started the journey of revenge. Still, it had been her norm to indulge herself in the past and allow herself to be weak during the Lantern Festival on the Seventh Night of July. Slowly closing her eyes, she touched the only ornament on her head, the pearl hairpin, felt the pearl with her fingers, and let her tears flow. She thought of her lover Kong Yue, of everything that happened in the past, and of her love and joy as well as her hatred and sorrow... Wu Xin stood still by the river, singing softly the song Kong Yue taught her again and again. The lyrics were like a reflection of her life, “Wind and sand blocked my view... I wished life could still be a beautiful song under the moonlight when I woke up.” Time flew by.

“Zhi.” “Yes? Yinzhu.” “When everything is over, let’s find a place to live in seclusion! Just the two of us.” “Really? Yinzhu, do you really want to be with me?” “I do, as long as we are still alive.” “We will be, definitely.” “But I’m afraid that you will despise my blood-stained hands and this battered heart...” Xuan Zhi hurriedly stopped her by covering her mouth with his hand, “I don’t care. I really don’t. Yinzhu, you know I have loved you since long ago. From the beginning, you’re the only one in my heart,” Xuan Zhi said, placing Wu Xin’s hand on his heart and letting her feel his heart beating for her alone. Yet Wu Xin continued when Xuan Zhi put down his hand, “But I am no longer the innocent princess I used to be. Both my hands and my heart are not clean anymore, never again. Sometimes I feel like I am so dirty, so dirty...” “Yinzhu, it was no
Villain Princess Chapter 99 The Unexpected Guest
Qi Yuan didn’t say anything. In his mind, he felt so lucky seeing Wu Xin was willing to marry him and be his wife. Even if she did not like him now, and everything was nothing but a lie. However, he could wait for Wu Xin to change her mind gradually after they got married. He didn’t expect one day she would love him as much as he loved her. He only hoped that they could live a simple life together. Red lanterns were hung up high. The mansion of Qi Yuan was not an old mansion. It was built less than two decades ago, not solemn due to the vicissitudes of life at all. It didn’t have a special design and was just an ordinary house. Half a month later, this mansion was completely renewed on this happy and festive day. The overwhelming and jubilant red color was everywhere. The mansion of Qi Yuan looked warm and full of joy now. Today was the wedding day of Qi Yuan, the owner of this mansion. Qi Yuan’s wedding looked prosperous and joyous o
Villain Princess Chapter 100 She Was Heartless and Feelingless
“Darling, why do you still call me Wu Xin? I’m your wife now.” Wu Xin completely ignored Yun Su’s angry face. She turned around to face Qi Yuan. She even took the initiative to hug him as he was kneeling on the ground and caressed his soft long hair. They truly looked like a loving couple. Yun Su really couldn’t stand it. However, no one would have thought that he would take a sword from an imperial guard next to him. He pulled Wu Xin into his arms with his left hand while stabbing Qi Yuan’s chest with the sword in his right hand without any hesitation. There was a saying that “those who showed off their love would separate quickly.” It was verified immediately. Everything seemed to freeze. No one dared to move, except for Wu Xin, who was struggling desperately. Blood spilled out as the sword left Qi Yuan’s body. He was still kneeling and looking at Wu Xin. Without closing his eyes, he fell straight to the ground while s
Villain Princess Chapter 101 Back to the Imperial Palace
The magnificent palaces and pavilions were all richly ornamented and well arranged. Majestic as they were, the imperial architecture conveyed a sense of solemnity to its visitors. It had been seven years. The grandiose palace remained the same while time changed those who lived under the roof. The girl who had returned was no longer the same person years ago.Shui Yinzhu sat alone by the desk in the emperor’s bedchamber. She stopped bleeding, and the blood on her neck had dried. Her wedding dress was soaked in blood. That smell, however, calmed her mind. Still, no matter how much she bled, the sorrow in her heart was never going to be drained. Her right hand clenched the dagger in her sleeve. She touched the pearl on her hairpin with her left hand out of habit. Shui Yinzhu, the princess of the conquered Kingdom of Shui, once again returned to the imperial palace in the Empire of Yun. Yet, she was no longer that pure and innocent sacrifice named Prin
Villain Princess Chapter 102 Empress Xi
No one knew that this one moment of his distraction irritated the unpredictable emperor Yun Su. After the middle-aged doctor finished with the patching of Shui Yinzhu’s wound, the emperor lifted his unwounded hand. He pointed at the doctor, “Someone, take him out and chop off his head.”An innocent man was killed without any sign. The middle-aged doctor might not even know the reason at the end of his life. Many others didn’t either. But people would normally blame it on those beauties. Whatever this young emperor did, his eyes were always fixed on his Sister Xi. He left the bedchamber after the older imperial doctor patched his wound. He did need some time alone in the study, or else the girl’s eyes would eventually cloud his judgment again. As the door of the bedchamber closed, his girl in the beautiful red wedding dress was no longer in his eye. Yun Su whispered to himself - it was a whisper that others could barely hear, “Sister Xi

The elapse of time is always equal to everyone. It doesn’t take a side and serves as the solution to all the problems. Shui Yinzhu had to get back to this golden cage no matter how reluctant. It would be only impossible for her to break out again. The imperial physician was worthy of his title. Shui Yinzhu’s wounds gradually recovered. There wasn’t a tiny sign of a scar on her face or her neck as if she never got hurt. But she still kept that broken heart as her own secret, along with the after-effects of the Heat Poison. Shui Yinzhu didn’t care about the title of empress. She never wanted it at all. The bright-yellow phoenix robe and the empress crown remained new. The girl still wore her white dress and that simple pearl hairpin. What’s worse was that there wasn’t even any pattern on her white dress, making it look like a mourning dress. Yun Su never restricted her freedom, at least it seemed so. But he had always been sending guard
Villain Princess Chapter 104 Rumors About Xuan Zhi
“What?” Shui Yinzhu was shocked. But time was limited. She didn’t have much time to analyze it. So she whispered, “Keep going.”“Yun Su’s mother feared that she might not be able to give birth to a boy when she was still the Crown Princess. So she got pregnant at the same time as her servant girl. Her servant girl gave birth to Yun Su. Soon after, the Crown Princess gave birth to a girl.”Since the two women were talking about an absolute secret, they were both speaking quietly.“Why didn’t she let her servant girl bear King Yun’s child?”“The servant girl didn’t have any chance. The Crown Princess herself couldn’t really meet with King Yun back then.”“Where are the parents of Yun Su?”“The Crown Princess killed them.”“Does Yun Su know about this?”“Not until his wet nurse wanted him to marry the real daughter of his mother after you left.”“And then?”

He was thrilled at her consent. But when he was about to move on, he noticed the fear in her eyes. Xuan Zhi realized that it must have reminded her of what Yun Su did to her, so he stopped moving and held Shui Yinzhu in his arms instead. He wouldn’t continue, knowing that she was hurt so deep within and that she might get unhappy.“What’s wrong?” Shui Yinzhu asked.“Nothing. There’s no need to hurry. We have plenty of time for you to get used to it.”Shui Yinzhu didn’t say a word. Her Zhi had always been a silly man in front of her. She kissed on Xuan Zhi’s lips. The woman was running out of time, and she couldn’t wait for her inner world to heal. What she hated was the touch of Yun Su, the past of herself, and even her own body.

“Oh, you fool. You are such a fool.”Shui Yinzhu felt moved and sad. The two opposite emotions lingered at the bottom of her heart. The mixture was kinda sweet. As she lied down in Xuan Zhi’s arms, the girl understood that she was selfish and couldn’t accept any betrayal of Xuan Zhi. Tears dropped from her eyes. Xuan Zhi loved her so much. What should be done to repay that?As he saw her tears, Xuan Zhi immediately wiped her face clean. “Come on, easy, Yinzhu. It’s my fault. Feel free to blame it on me. Just stop crying, or I will feel hurt. I’ll always be by your side and keep you happy.”Their love moved Uncle Zhi and Li Yi. But Zuo Xin was still there. Uncle Zhi had to interrupt as he said, “Your Majesty, how are we supposed to deal with Zuo Xin?”“Zhi, let go of her and marry her to Xiaojing.” No one expected to hear that from Shui Yinzhu. She wasn’t born a Bodhisatva, but she wanted to accumulate merit for him as Xuan Z

At that moment, Uncle Zhi had mixed feelings about her. He didn’t hate Shui Yinzhu. Instead, he simply felt that she had too much influence on Xuan Zhi. Besides, her reputation had been discredited by Zuo Xin. But the woman in front of her had only several months to live. Uncle Zhi agreed to her request, partly because of his selfishness and partly out of sympathy.Shui Yinzhu wiped the tears on her face, kept down her sadness, and told Uncle Zhi to get Li Yi in. No matter how bad she felt, she had to keep up with the show.The conversation was quite simple with Li Yi. Shui Yinzhu promised her that she would give an answer to everyone in a month.

Villain Princess Chapter 125 The Dying Girl

The men had a selfish will that the woman would make the “proper” choice so that they would secure their loyalty and morality at the same time.Shui Yinzhu never thought that Xuan Zhi would chase her out of the hall. Xuan Zhi held her in his arms and kissed her lips regardless of her resistance. It was one of the very few times for him to be aggressive in front of her.It was a clean kiss filled with warmth and yearning, different from the disgusting one of Yun Su.

But the evil empress in red remained the same unreasonable woman. She sat in Yun Su’s arms and flirted with him even though the empire was in grave danger.The silent ministers were not sure if they should speak against their irresponsible emperor as the grave situation and the serious discussion had been defiled by the erotic aura. But Yun Su seemed to enjoy holding the beauty in his arms as he accepted it and didn’t say a single word against it.The ministers were there to suffer. They had to do their report with their head lowered. No one had the courage to look at the two on the throne. It wasn’t

“Many years ago, there was a little girl. She was the little princess of the Kingdom of Shui. Her parents loved her and provided her with the best affection. However, when she turned nine years old, the Kingdom of Yun waged war against the Kingdom of Shui... The little princess felt as if she was a jinx. In order to protect the ones she loved from dying, she had to sacrifice herself to live with her enemies.”Shui Yinzhu then told her story, including her relationship with Kong Yue and Xuan Zhi. She told the little girl about the death of Kong Yue, the injury of Xuan Zhi, the care of Qi Yuan, and the destiny of Wu Chen. She omitted the part that she was a child of the emperor’s father and how she retaliated upon the general, the Prime Minister, and the lords.Shui Yinzhu was the storyteller, but her heart still ached when she recalled the past. Surprisingly, the string of her heart could still be plucked by the past after all the time passed. She was
Villain Princess Chapter 122 Rebellion of Citizens
Speaking of the empress Shui Yinzhu, people all recognized her as the personification of a succubus. She was so charming like a vixen whose glamour in innocence could attract everyone around her. She didn’t wear the phoenix crown and robe, the status symbols as the empress but the blood-red dress. She kept her hair in a bun, and wore a simple hairpin with two pearls on it. The emperor of Yun was so fascinated by her that he forgot the responsibility of the throne and started to kill innocent people.Under the constant and mostly intentional influence of the evil empress, Yun Su raised the tax over and over again. He forced his people to do labor work and abused his power and the financial resources to build wonders. The nervous people were sent everywhere to build grandiose temporary palaces for the pleasure of the emperor and the empress.The emperor totally ignored the welfare of his people as he would torture them for saying anything wrong.

“Paner, where is the...bamboo scroll?”“What?”“The bamboo scroll...you mentioned.”“Oh, right.” Paner finally remembered what she came here for and took out a bamboo scroll from her pocket. This was the reason why she came to find Shui Yinzhu.“Okay.” The pain drained all the strength from Shui Yinzhu’s body. But she still managed to read the message before sending Paner to burn it.The bamboo scroll came from Wei Ruxuan. He intended to cooperate with Shui Yinzhu. It wouldn’t be hard to guess that it was because of Bu Xiaoyan. But Shui Yinzhu didn’t expect was that Wei Ruxuan could send this bamboo scroll to her through this well-guarded harem. Prime Minister Wei’s influence could reach farther than it seemed.As the window opened again, Xiaoba took out a flask and handed it to Shui Yinzhu. “I asked the doctor to have the medicine boiled for you.”“Okay.” Shui Yinzhu took the flask and
