I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life
Chapter 205 How could a woman like her have such brilliant political wisdom and strategy?
Ten days later, the princess who once held great power and was extremely noble actually chose to commit suicide in her own residence. This news was like a thunderclap, causing a stir inside and outside the court.
When Xuanyuan Ping heard the news, he was shocked and stood there in a daze, his face pale, with Pei Zhixuan's words echoing in his mind.
Originally, he thought Pei Zhixuan's words were just nonsense when she was suffering from a hypochondriac attack, and he didn't take it seriously. He thought it was just an absurd dream and had nothing to do with reality. However, the current facts forced him to re-examine Pei Zhixuan's words.
The death of the eldest princess was exactly the same as Pei Zhixuan's description. This made him feel a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Could it be that Pei Zhixuan could really predict the future? Could her dream really happen?
Xuanyuan Ping felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart. He had to admit that he might have underestimated Pei Zhixuan. He decided to find Pei Zhixuan in person and find out the truth of all this.
He stood up and walked out of the study, his heart full of doubts and uneasiness. He knew that this time, he had to face Pei Zhixuan in person to uncover the truth of it all.
Pei Zhixuan was quietly waiting in her room at the moment. She seemed to have anticipated all this, so she was not too surprised. She just sat there quietly, waiting for Xuanyuan Ping to arrive.
When Xuanyuan Ping walked into the room, Pei Zhixuan raised her head, glanced at him, and then smiled gently. She knew that this time, she could finally make Xuanyuan Ping believe her words.
"Your Highness, can you believe what I say now?" Pei Zhixuan said with a smile.
Xuanyuan Ping tried to make his voice sound calm and firm, "Xuan'er, tell me, what do you know? Will your dream really come true?"
Pei Zhixuan looked at Xuanyuan Ping, took a deep breath, and then slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, my dream was not entirely fictitious. I did see some fragments of the future, but not all of it. The death of the eldest princess was just one of them."
Xuanyuan Ping frowned, "What else do you see in the future?"
"What I see is a future full of crises and turmoil. My Lord, you will face unprecedented challenges and difficulties, and I may be your greatest help."
Xuanyuan Ping was silent for a while, then slowly said, "How can I trust you?"
Pei Zhixuan smiled slightly, "Your Highness can choose not to believe me, but what I said is true. No one can predict the future. I just hope that when that day comes, Your Highness will remember what I said today."
"I know that my sister has the memory of her past life, so she came back to seek revenge on us."
Xuanyuan Ping frowned slightly. Yan'er? But, everything Yan'er is doing now is to pave the way for herself. Could it be that all this is an illusion?
Xuanyuan Ping took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly spoke, "Why are you so sure that Yan'er has memories of her past life?"
Ever since she had the memory of her past life, Pei Zhixuan has been thinking about their past and present lives these days. She finally discovered that what happened in her past life had changed on the day she married into the palace, and many things deviated from their original track.
In the past, my sister was obsessed with the prince and was very obedient to her and my aunt.
However, on the day she married into the palace, her sister changed. She began to control her and her aunt step by step, and looked at her with a very distant and even somewhat hateful look.
She must have come here for revenge with the memories of her past life.
Pei Zhixuan smiled slightly and said softly, "Your Highness, I am not making a guess. My sister and I grew up together, and I know her character and behavior very well."
"However, since I married into the palace, my sister's attitude towards the prince and me has changed dramatically. This change is by no means a one-day effort. I guess there must be some reason behind this. And the memory of the previous life is the only reasonable explanation I can think of."
Xuanyuan Ping listened to Pei Zhixuan's narration, and the doubts in his heart were slowly solved. He recalled that Yan'er's behavior was indeed very different from before after Pei Zhixuan married into the palace. Looking back now, that subtle change seemed really strange.
Xuanyuan Ping frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "If it is true as you said, Yan'er has the memory of her past life, then her behavior is indeed unpredictable. But can we conclude that she has the memory of her past life just based on the change in her attitude?"
Pei Zhixuan shook her head and said softly, "Of course we can't conclude based on just these. But I have other evidence."
"Does Your Majesty still remember the matter of abolishing the Crown Prince?"
"If she didn't have the memory of her past life, how could she have given the prince such accurate advice and deposed the crown prince?"
Xuanyuan Ping was moved when he heard Pei Zhixuan's words. The matter of deposing the crown prince was indeed a key step in his fight for the throne, and he was very clear about Yan'er's role in it.
The crown prince was deposed, but Yan Er provided him with a lot of key intelligence and strategies. These intelligence and strategies were accurate and effective, allowing the deposed crown prince to be defeated one by one without realizing it.
He looked at Pei Zhixuan again, a deep light flashing in his eyes, "You mean, the reason why Yan'er was able to give me such accurate advice and depose the crown prince is because she has the memory of her previous life?"
Pei Zhixuan nodded slightly, with a hint of firmness in her voice, "Yes, I think this is the only explanation. Otherwise, how could a woman like her have such brilliant political wisdom and strategy?"
Xuanyuan Ping took a deep breath. He knew that Pei Zhixuan's words made sense. If Yan'er really had memories of her past life, then her behavior would indeed be unpredictable.
However, at the moment, it seems that even if Yan'er has memories of her past life, what she is doing now is for herself and Prince Jing's Mansion, and she has not done anything to hurt herself.
Pei Zhixuan glanced at Xuanyuan Ping and saw that he was silent, and she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
She took a deep breath and continued, "Your Highness, we must be on guard against others. I know that you and my sister have a deep relationship, but please be aware that if my sister really has memories of her past life, she may feel resentment and hostility towards us. After all, she suffered a tragic fate in her past life."
Xuanyuan Ping raised his head, his eyes met Pei Zhixuan's, and he said in a deep voice, "Xuan'er, I understand everything you said. Don't mention this to anyone else first."
Pei Zhixuan nodded slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty."
