The ancient tea has a light mist and a refreshing taste, but it is surprisingly bitter.

Dao Tianxing watched quietly. He didn't drink. The duchess looked at him with some doubts.

"You don't seem to want to drink?"

"Well, I've had it. I don't want to try it again." Dao Tianxing nodded and looked at the surrounding environment.

Among the ruins, it seems that only this table, a few chairs, and a pair of teapots have been preserved, which makes people feel a little deliberate.

The Duchess also nodded. Those who have tasted it will naturally know what bitterness is, so there is really no need to taste it.

"Well, mother..."

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly made a voice, and the duchess's heart trembled. Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's flawless face, she felt as if she was looking into a mirror of the past, filled with unspeakable pain and suffering.

The Duchess put her right hand on the table. Her palm opened slightly, and then she clenched her fist tightly. Her hesitation was actually self-doubt. She didn't know whether she was qualified to touch her child.

Finally, the Duchess let out an imperceptible sigh, withdrew her palm and placed it on her thigh again.

"I know what you are worried about. Don't worry. Even if it's a dragon, your father, Duke Zhuluo, will take care of everything. Emperor Xingluo won't have too many problems." The Duchess held the teacup and brought it to her mouth. He drank some tea and licked his lips to moisten his lips.

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head violently, her eyes glowing with crystal luster, full of desire: "This is not what I want to ask, but I want to know about your past, mother!"

"I..."

The Duchess sighed and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I have no past to speak of, it's just an exercise repeated countless times in the imperial family."

"If you don't understand and feel the same, how can you let go of your grudges?" Dao Tianxing said with emotion, which made the duchess highly approve.

"You're right. Maybe I should face the past..."

The bitter tea entered her throat, and under the stimulation of this extreme bitterness, the Duchess began to recall the past and recount bits and pieces of the past.

The Duchess is the eldest princess of the Dai family. She is extremely talented. If it weren't for the fact that she was a daughter, she would even be qualified to compete with her brother for the throne.

It's just that she met a man in her life who could compete with her. The first time they met and they fought, the second time they fought and they became confidants, the third time they talked and became lovers, and the fourth time they were side by side, they were separated by yin and yang.

The time they fell in love was short, but this love was very heavy.

It was so heavy that her hands were stained with the blood of her lover, so that she was no longer able to pick up any weapons!

The Duchess is actually very cowardly. She has endured it for many years, so much so that she has now surpassed her husband, Duke Zhuluo, and entered the title realm, but no one in this huge Star Luo City knows about it!

But so what?

The cowardice in her heart makes her, who was originally afraid of failure, even more afraid to take revenge on everyone easily!

"There is a Douluo who controls people's hearts in the worship service?!"

Dao Tianxing was horrified. He never thought that Xing Luo, who looked peaceful on the surface, would actually hide an extremely terrifying sharp blade!

Whenever the rules designated by Xingluo are challenged, these sharp blades will cut at the challenger without hesitation, even relatives!

"Yes, he died in the end, but he was still smiling happily, and my arms went through his chest, holding the bloody organs, and the spring was gushing scarlet and dazzling..."

The Duchess recalled too deeply and was filled with grief. Her heart felt as if there was a meat grinder. The deeper she went, she found that the past had long since been shattered, leaving only bits and pieces.

Dao Tianxing watched the Duchess cry, but she remained quiet. She had gone through too much and had long been numb. Even though her emotions were ups and downs now, her face was still as frosty as snow.

The Duchess quickly calmed down her emotions and wiped away her tears. She was an independent woman.

"Boy, you are very strong, much stronger than him. But you still need to be careful. In addition to the titled Douluo who can manipulate people's hearts, the Xingluo royal family also has the Supreme Emperor who lives in seclusion in the worship hall.

Of course, you may be able to climb these mountains, but that’s nothing. Because in addition to facing an army of millions, you also have to face a worshiping god! That is your final obstacle, and it is also the most difficult threshold for Zhu Zhuqing to break free from the shackles of his family. "

Dao Tianxing and Zhu Zhuqing were both silent. This was too difficult for them now.

Moreover, the situation in Xingluo is complicated, and the mud has gathered into a turbid swamp. It is far more difficult to struggle here than they imagined.

Dao Tianxing and Zhu Zhuqing chose to join the game at first, originally for Dai Mubai, but now they are already in trouble. Should they choose to save their own lives, or break the shackles?

In fact, these are meaningless.

Dao Tianxing had already made a plan, and if he was forced to the end, it would topple the royal power at worst!

"Okay, let's stop here. I'm tired too."

The Duchess held her head. Her mood swings were too violent today and she was very tired. She had no energy to continue chatting with Dao Tianxing and the others.

"With Madam's approval, it will be justifiable for us to meet Emperor Xingluo tomorrow."

Dao Tianxing bowed to the duchess, pulled Zhu Zhuqing and turned to leave.

When they walked to the door, the duchess spoke again: "Is your name Zhu Zhuqing? If you have time in the future, can you come and see me often?"

Zhu Zhuqing stood there stunned. She was very excited and bit her lower lip with her teeth without making any sound, but tears had already slipped down her cheeks.

Finally, she trembled her lips and uttered a word with great difficulty.

"it is good!"
