Chapter 1084: Chapter 1085: Deserve It Also
“At that ti, my sister was very attached to , unwilling to leave my side. Having no other choice, my imperial consort mother could only send her out of the palace with . At the sa ti, she found a girl with a similar build to impersonate her.”
“You should be able to tell, my sister knows nothing about the truth of our identity and origin. My master and I have not told her anything.”
“Back then, we were all too young, and as we grew up, we gradually forgot the events of our early childhood. The reason I still know about them is because I later asked my master.”
“My imperial consort mother, who was indebted to my master in her maiden years, sent and my sister to him because she saw him as reliable and hoped that he would raise us to adulthood.”
“At first, my master was unwilling to reveal my origins, but later on, he did tell . He felt that among and my sister, it was better for one of us to know the truth, and he chose . As it happened, I also desperately wanted to know.”
“My imperial consort mother wished for my sister and to stay far from the Imperial Capital and live as ordinary citizens. So, I lived as such, even though I hated Su Haoyu so much that I wanted to flay him alive, I never thought about seeking revenge.”
“Previously, my plan was to stay with my sister in Nan Shen, far from the Imperial Capital. But then, we t ng Lanqing, and both my sister and I thought he was good-looking, so we followed him to Qilin County.”
“At that ti, I thought Qilin County was far enough from the Imperial Capital that it wouldn’t matter if we went there, but who would have thought that after all the twists and turns, we would end up back here in the Capital.”
“Perhaps, this is fate.”
“Destiny decreed that I must co back here, to be killed by him.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Changyi finally spoke again, still insisting, “He’s not that kind of person, there must be so misunderstanding.”
Gong Juechen laughed bitterly, “The evidence is right before your eyes, and yet you still refuse to believe. Truly, he must have treated you too well all this ti.”
Gong Juechen again let out a cold laugh, “If it weren’t for your indifference towards the throne, for not posing a threat to his precious son Su Chengyu, would he have treated you so well? He would be more than happy to kill you!”
Xiao Changyi calmly said, “The throne doesn’t belong to . If I were to covet it and get killed by him, it would be my own fault.”
Gong Juechen was montarily stunned. Indeed, to covet what was not ant to be yours and to be killed for it, one would deserve it.
But—
Gong Juechen sneered, “I was only three or four years old at the ti, too young to understand these matters. How could I have coveted that position? Yet, didn’t he still harbor the intent to kill ?”
This ti, Xiao Changyi only had three words: “There’s a misunderstanding.”
Gong Juechen coldly said, “If you are so adamant in believing that he’s incapable of such a deed, deluding yourself, then I have nothing more to say. Let him take my life if that’s what he wants, but for the sake of our friendship, you must protect my sister. She is innocent; she knows nothing.”
Xiao Changyi didn’t say whether he would protect Gong Juese or not, but instead, he questioned, “Every year on your morial day, he abstains from at, and ever since you were gone, he planted cyclans in front of Jun Palace, and they have been there ever since. He reminisces about you so, do you truly believe he is the person you describe?”
Gong Juechen also sensed the contradictions, yet said, “Then why would my imperial consort mother commit suicide by fire to send out of the palace? If it wasn’t for him wanting to kill , would my mother have done such a thing?”
