Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

The events of those years seemed to replay themselves yesterday. Whenever Su Ming thought of the news that the Lu family had cancelled the engagement, he would feel unwilling.

"You have never treated Congfang sincerely. How can I entrust my sister to you? Su Ming, even though you are well-versed in literature, your character is far from that of a saint. Do you remember what Xiao Yan said to you and what you did?"

It was during that Qixi Lantern Festival. If Lu Changfeng had not appeared in time, Lu Congfang, who had been poisoned by the Ecstasy Powder, would probably have fallen into Xiao Yan's hands long ago.

From that moment on, Lu Changfeng completely saw through Su Ming's true nature, a person who could sacrifice everything for his goals, and even used his own sister to exchange for the benefit of the family.

"Beast!" Jiang Xue was furious after learning the truth. The golden needle in her hand flew out quickly and accurately pierced into Su Ming's vital points.

"Ugh..." Su Ming groaned in pain, but he laughed with a twisted face, "Jiang Xue, do you know? Your noble mother had a love affair with Xiao Yunjian before she married Jiang Xun!"

"Shut up!" Jiang Xue attacked again, this time directly sealing Su Ming's mouth, "Don't slander my mother!"

Seeing her emotional look, Xiao Zhan patted her shoulder gently and said gently: "Xiaoxue, let me handle it. Don't let Su Ming affect you."

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xue nodded in agreement. Indeed, staying calm is the best way to respond.

"Now it's my turn to ask questions." Xiao Zhan stepped forward and slowly pulled out the golden needle from Su Ming's mouth. Every movement made the latter almost collapse in pain. "Prime Minister Su, I really want to hear the details of the story between the Queen of Qian Kingdom and my father."

Facing the silent Su Ming, Xiao Zhan signaled his men to prepare for action. "If you don't want to talk, I have a way to make you talk. However, I hope to avoid using overly cruel methods. So, please tell us the truth as soon as possible."

After a moment, Su Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he smiled coldly: "Well, since you want to know, Xiao Yunjian and Lu Congfang had already fallen in love with each other before they met. You should be very clear about this, Lu Changfeng."

Zhenbei Hou frowned, his lips tightly shut, and he said nothing. Ever since Fang chose Jiang Xun, he never mentioned this matter again, firstly because he didn't want to disturb her new life, and secondly because he was afraid of reminding her of her sad past.

"What happened next?" Xiao Zhan's heart sank, and he had a bad feeling.

"Later? Oh, Xiao Yan has always been obsessed with Lu Congfang. After a flood, when Xiao Yunjian was ordered to go to the disaster area for inspection, Xiao Yan asked me to trick Congfang into the palace and drug her, hoping to do something bad to her.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xun showed up in time and ruined his plan. After Xiao Yunjian learned about this, he stopped seeing Congfang after returning from the disaster area, which made Congfang very sad.

But Jiang Xun pursued her relentlessly and eventually won her heart, and the two were granted marriage by the late emperor. Ironically, when Xiao Yunjian heard about their marriage, he went crazy looking for Congfang the night before she left for Qian State... Hehe.

When Su Ming said this, a complicated smile appeared on his face.

He glanced at Jiang Xue, which made Xiao Zhan very dissatisfied. He immediately moved to block her sight.

Lu Changfeng closed his eyes tightly, and his fists clenched tighter and tighter as Su Ming spoke, and his joints made creaking sounds.

At that time, His Highness looked unusual when he came to see my younger sister, but he thought it was because my younger sister left, so he didn't ask much. It was not until he saw His Highness's empty eyes that he realized something was wrong.

When he rushed into his little sister's room, it was a mess, with torn clothes scattered on the floor. His little sister was curled up in a corner of the bed, wrapped in a quilt and crying.

"Brother, this cannot be told to anyone, not even a word about it." She reminded him repeatedly, fearing that the two countries would go to war and the people would suffer.

Jiang Xue was stunned. Her most respected master actually did such a thing to her mother. She couldn't believe it. The arrogant figure of Xiao Yunjian appeared in her mind. How could such a person act like this?

Suddenly, Jiang Xue thought of something and was terrified. She stood up suddenly and her body swayed. Xiao Zhan immediately stepped forward to support her.

"You said it was the night before our mother went to Qian Kingdom. What time was it exactly?" She stared at Su Ming and asked.

Su Ming's smile became even more weird: "Princess Changle is really smart. She guessed it so quickly."

"Tell me the exact time!" Jiang Xue almost collapsed.

"The twelfth year of Xingwu."

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, and Jiang Xue felt as if the world had collapsed. "The twelfth year of Xingwu..." She staggered back, her face as pale as paper.

Xiao Zhan hurriedly hugged her, worried that she would fall.

"Xiaoxue." He called softly, his subordinate's body trembling slightly and his brows furrowed.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and a long sword was pressed against Su Ming's throat. "Su Ming, are you telling the truth?"

If it was in the twelfth year of Xingwu, according to Xiaoxue's age, she was most likely the daughter of Lu Congfang and Xiao Yunjian. Even Jiang Chen might have the blood of the Beiling royal family. Does this mean that the person he loved so much turned out to be his sister?

This fact was hard for Xiao Zhan to accept. He stared at Su Ming, who was sneering, and wondered how much truth this cunning man had in his words. But if all this was true, then between him and Xiao Xue...

Pain flashed through Xiao Zhan's eyes, and he unconsciously clenched Xiaoxue's fingers.

No, he doesn't believe it!

This thing can never become a reality no matter what.

"Prince Gong, I never like to see my opponents living too comfortably. Seeing you and Princess Changle so affectionate, I feel very uncomfortable.

This secret will not only make you suffer, but also make Xiao Yunjian and Lu Changfeng feel guilty. For me, this is the best outcome. Do you think I would lie? "Su Ming's smile became more and more dazzling.

"When Lu Congfang was alive, she chose to be with Jiang Xun instead of me. Now that she is gone, her daughter should bear this pain."

"Shut up..." Xiao Zhan shouted threateningly, his shaking hands revealing his inner anger.

However, Su Ming seemed to ignore the tense atmosphere around him and continued, "Xiao Yunjian dared to take my woman away. I will let him see what evil consequences he has sown. My son and daughter are in love. Is there anything more ridiculous than this in the world?"

"I told you to shut up!" With a roar, the blade slashed down and pierced Su Ming's throat.

His sharp voice stopped abruptly and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, but he still maintained his eerie smile until his last breath, and there seemed to be lingering mockery of the two people in his eyes.

"Your Highness, let me handle things here." Seeing this, Lu Changfeng stepped forward and took charge of the follow-up matters.

Faced with such a situation, he also felt extremely complicated. He didn't know how to face Jiang Xue or Xiao Zhan, so he could only avoid them temporarily.

Back in the palace, Jiang Xue quietly stayed by Xiao Yunjian's bed, waiting for him to wake up.
