Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

The wound that had been sutured on Mu Gu had broken open, but fortunately not all of it. The hole in the left chest had also split open, and the bright red granulation tissue was still bleeding. She couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive and hurt you."

"Don't say sorry to me, Ruge, I'm happy with whatever you do to me."

Xiao Ruge, who was applying medicine on Mu Gu's chest, paused, looked at Mu Gu with his dark eyes in confusion, and asked puzzledly: "Why are you so nice to me? Is it because I saved you before?"

The smile on Mu Gu's face faded a little. He sighed heavily, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.

"You also know my mother's identity. As an orphan of the previous dynasty, my mother and I have an awkward position in the palace. If it weren't for my father's love for my mother, I'm afraid my mother and I wouldn't be alive today."

Xiao Ruge didn't say anything. She just listened quietly while treating her wound.

"When my mother was still a good man, my life with her was very difficult. All the concubines in the palace bullied us..."

At that time, the queen's mother's family was at its peak, resulting in no one in the harem being able to compete with the queen.

Because of her beauty, Concubine Zhao was naturally favored by the Emperor, which led to the Empress disliking Concubine Zhao.

So in addition to secretly withholding the monthly allowance of Zhaopin and her son, she also hinted to other concubines to keep causing trouble for the mother and son.

All the clothes that Mu Gu wore before he was ten years old were made by Zhao Bin herself. If she didn't make them, Mu Gu would have no new clothes to wear.

What's even more outrageous is that when the queen saw that Mu Gu was getting older, she became malicious and wanted to freeze her and her son to death, and she didn't even give them charcoal for the entire winter.

Later, Mu Gu couldn't stand the cold anymore and secretly ran to find the emperor. When the emperor found out, he severely reprimanded the queen, which made life better for Zhaopin and her son.

But because of this, Concubine Zhao had a hard time moving forward in the harem.

Thinking of growing up in the cannibalistic palace, Mu Gu's eyes became gloomy and the smile on his face disappeared.

"My mother is a person who doesn't like to fight for things. My only wish now is to take her out of the palace and away from that cage."

Xiao Ruge had already treated his wounds, and gently tied his belt for him, saying softly: "That day will definitely come, you are happier than me now."

Although the emperor does not value Mu Gu, he still has a mother.

Unlike myself, I am left alone.

He looked at Xiao Ruge's beautiful face with his deep peach blossom eyes and gently held her hand.

"Ruge, since the day you saved me, my life has belonged to you!"

This promise shocked Xiao Ruge. She stared at Mu Gu in a daze. When she came to her senses, she immediately smiled and pushed his hand away.

"Don't be ridiculous. Even if you are not favored by the emperor, you are still a prince. How can you say that your life is mine?"

She got up to wash her hands, but her heart was beating wildly because of what Mu Gu had just said.

Mu Gu sighed, a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes, but then he regained his fighting spirit.

"What I said is real!"

Xiao Ruge blinked her eyes, wiped her hands, turned around, crossed her arms, and looked at the person on the bed, "Mu Gu, you are so persistent in pestering me, in fact, you also want to use my power to fight for the throne, right?"

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Mu Gu's face when he heard this.

He did have this idea in mind at the beginning, but after spending some time together, he found that Xiao Ruge was a kind-hearted person, albeit a bit harsh in words but with a soft heart.

Seeing that what she said was right, Xiao Ruge's heart, which had been beating wildly just now, gradually calmed down, and she calmly began to negotiate terms with Mu Gu.

"It's not impossible for me to help you. You know the influence my grandfather has left in the army. How about we work together? I'll help you ascend the throne, and you help me get rid of Mu Bo!"

She figured it out. Since she was not going to let Lu Yu ascend the throne as emperor in this life, she had to choose someone who would be beneficial to her and support him to take the throne.

For example, Mu Gu now agrees to his own conditions.

"If I ever become the emperor, I can make you the queen!"

Mu Gu wanted to make a final effort. After all, only emotional bonds were the strongest.

Xiao Ruge sneered, "I don't care."

She was also a queen in her previous life. It was so boring to compete with so many women for a man.

This was also the reason why she later put on armor and went into battle to kill the enemy, instead of being unwilling to remain trapped in the palace.

That is a position second only to the emperor, but Mu Gu did not expect Xiao Ruge to be so dismissive. This surprised him a little.

Now, apart from working together, he could not think of any other way to tie Xiao Ruge and himself together.

Now that the two have reached a cooperative relationship, they should think about the future together.

"This time I alerted Mu Bo. He came to see you today. He probably suspected that the person who broke into his house that day was one of yours, so he came to test you."

Mu Gu pondered for a moment and continued, "He didn't see you today, so he will definitely find another opportunity in two days. You have to be careful and don't reveal any flaws."

Xiao Ruge nodded, "I will control my emotions."

Things turned out just as Mu Gu had expected. A few days later, Xiao Ruge met Mu Bo at a poetry meeting.

He still had that aloof look, and only when he saw Xiao Ruge would he restrain himself a little and smile gently.

"Is Miss Xiao Er feeling better? I didn't see you when I went to the Xiao Mansion a few days ago, and I was worried for a long time."

Xiao Ruge smiled to hide the anger in her heart and behaved appropriately.

"Thank you for your concern, Fifth Prince. It's just a minor problem of my daughter. I'm fine now."

Originally, Mu Bo wanted to ask Xiao Ruge what was wrong with her and whether he should call a doctor for her, but after hearing what she said, he immediately felt embarrassed to ask.

"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to come to today's poetry gathering. Now that I see that you are fine, I am relieved."

The two talked for a while, and the poetry gathering began. Xiao Ruge found an excuse to return to the ladies' seats and sat in her seat watching the talented man and beautiful woman compete on the stage.

Xiao Mingyue also came to this poetry reading, and Xiao Ruge also saw Lu Yu in the men's section.

However, no matter how Xiao Mingyue looked at him eagerly, Lu Yu didn't even look at her. It seemed that Xiao Mingzhi must have not given him a good face last time.

Just as she was looking at Lu Yu, she caught a glimpse of Mu Gu who had also come and was sitting with Duanmu Ling.

Although the two were talking, when they saw Xiao Ruge looking over, they immediately raised their eyebrows at her.

Xiao Ruge pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"Second sister, I've always heard that you are very talented. Would you like to go up and write a poem later? But second sister has a bold personality, so she probably doesn't like these flowery things, right?"

Xiao Mingyue wanted to do something weird again.

Although it was not this poetry gathering in her previous life, she also urged herself to write poetry at another poetry gathering.
