Chapter 434 The people should be reassured.

"But you don't know, I've already regretted it, and in my previous life I wasn't so heartless towards you. I did genuinely like you, and I wanted to keep you by my side after I succeeded."

I just didn't expect that vicious woman Su Wanshi would be jealous and frame you. She made me misunderstand you, which is why I treated you that way!

Since regaining my memories, not a single day has passed without regret, especially when I see you standing beside the Crown Prince, I can't help but feel jealous.

I often think, how wonderful it would be if I were the one standing by your side in this life, how wonderful it would be if you could accompany me in conquering the world. If I were given a chance, I would definitely cherish you!

Xiao Churen became more and more excited as he spoke, looking as if he wanted to tear his heart out.

Even before he knew it, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Is this all the nonsense you wanted to say?"

Su Liluo showed no emotion whatsoever, looking at him with a slightly mocking expression.

Xiao Churen saw the look in her eyes; she seemed to have been greatly shocked.

nonsense?

He spoke so earnestly, but in her eyes it was all nonsense.

Even if she has fallen for the Crown Prince now, she must have genuinely loved him in the past!

In his previous life, he clearly felt Su Liluo's affection for him, so how could she not remember any of their past feelings?

"No, don't you have any feelings for me at all? You once loved me the way you loved the Crown Prince—"

"Smack!"

Xiao Churen was about to shamelessly question her about why she didn't like him anymore, but before he could finish speaking, he received a crisp slap on the face.

Su Liluo looked at him with disgust and sneered, "You dare to compare yourself to my husband? Let me tell you, I only have feelings for you because you deceived me, I have never loved you."

The reason I foolishly helped you in my past life was because I was deceived by you. It wasn't until I met the Crown Prince that I learned what it truly means to love someone.

For the Crown Prince, I would die or do anything, but you, you would never let me have such a thought, no matter what!

"No, you're lying! I don't believe you, I don't believe you! You did love me, Luo'er, please believe me one more time, okay? As long as you're willing to help me, I promise I won't let you down this time!"

"If you save me and help me ascend the throne, then from now on, my harem will only have you as my woman. I will never take any other concubines, and you will be my only woman for life!"

Xiao Churen was not angry at being slapped. Instead, he shamelessly moved closer to Su Liluo. Su Liluo found it disgusting and kicked him away.

"After all that nonsense, you've finally revealed your purpose. Who do you think you are, still dreaming of me saving you?"

Su Lilu looked at Xiao Churen, who had been kicked to the ground and was writhing and struggling like a worm, and sneered.

After all that buildup and all those disgusting things he said, his last request for help and salvation was probably his true intention!

She truly did not underestimate Xiao Churen's shamelessness; this kind of man would not give up any hope even when facing certain death.

Unfortunately, she would never help him. The reason she agreed to listen to his nonsense was because she wanted to crush all his hopes.

"I'm telling you, I will personally send you to the death row in Daliang, and then watch you go to the guillotine. Your death will become a meritorious achievement for the Crown Prince in suppressing the traitors!"

"You, are you really so heartless to me?"

Xiao Churen's expression suddenly changed when he saw Su Liluo's unmoved demeanor.

"Do you think that by helping the Crown Prince, he will be devoted to you? Let me tell you, after you died in your past life, the Crown Prince married other women. He won't only have you as his woman!"

"Hahaha! Xiao Churen, do you really think I died so early that I don't know what happened afterward?"

Su Liluo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Look at Xiao Churen, he's not only disgusting, but also maliciously trying to frame Xiao Ye.

"What do you mean? I, I really didn't lie to you, he really did marry another woman later."

Xiao Churen felt a little guilty. How did Su Liluo know what happened later?

But Su Liluo had no intention of wasting any more words with him. She walked up to Xiao Churen and looked down at him.

He said, word by word, "Today is the last time I'll listen to your nonsense. The next time will be watching you go to the guillotine. Our two lifetimes of grudges will come to a complete end today."

Then, he coldly ordered the guards to drag Xiao Churen away and lock him in the prison cart.

As she stepped out of the house, a gentle breeze greeted her, as if washing away all the hostility from her.

At this moment, she felt as if she were bathed in a spring breeze. In both her past and present lives, those who had hurt her had finally received the punishment they deserved.

She completely let go of the resentment from her past life at this moment.

Let it go.

*

After finishing their business in Youyun Prefecture, Xiao Ye and his group used a prison cart to escort Xiao Churen and the Liu family to the imperial city.

After about seven or eight days, they finally arrived at the capital.

The streets of the imperial city were still bustling with activity, but Su Liluo always felt that something was different.

After they entered the city, no one came to greet them, nor did anyone congratulate Xiao Ye on capturing two cities in the Northern Desert and pacifying the rebels in Youyun Prefecture.

It was as if the people of the capital city were unaware of Xiao Ye's great achievements.

"Husband, have you informed the Emperor and the others about what's happening in Youyun Prefecture?"

After returning to the Crown Prince's residence, Su Lilu couldn't help but ask.

"Two days before we set off to return, I had already sent a message, but Father did not respond. I guess the message was blocked."

Xiao Ye frowned and said.

Although he had already learned from Xiao Churen that the current situation in the capital of Daliang was controlled by Prince Xiao and that his father was obsessed with medicine and immortality, experiencing it with his own eyes was a different story.

He wasn't a vain person, nor did he want to see others praise him. He simply felt that since he had accomplished such a significant task as eliminating the rebels, the people should know and feel at ease.

But there's not a word about it now, which is enough to show that someone behind the scenes doesn't want his achievements to be known to the world, and is afraid that he will gain more popular support.

"I'm afraid the situation in the palace is not optimistic. We have returned without any imperial decree summoning us."

Su Liluo frowned and sighed.

"Since Father Emperor does not summon me, I will take the initiative to visit Father Emperor and Mother Emperor in the palace. I wonder how Mother Emperor has been these days."

"Let's not delay, let's go now."

After discussing it for a while, the two decided to take the initiative to visit the palace.

at the same time.

Inside the palace.

Emperor Wenjian had just finished enjoying the acupuncture treatment given to him by Zixing and was feeling refreshed and lightheaded.

"Your Majesty, Consort Zhang has arrived."

At that moment, a young eunuch walked in.
