Chapter 190

As she left, palace maids lowered their heads and approached the bed.

Efficiently, they wrapped the body of the male favorite in bed sheets and carried him outside.

Meanwhile, the remaining palace maids quickly tidied the bedding, replaced it with fresh sheets, and lit incense on the bed to mask the scent of desire that lingered.

Once the Female Emperor of Canglan Country was dressed with the help of the palace maids, she walked back to the enormous bronze mirror, extended her hand, and carefully examined her beautiful face reflected in the mirror.

Indeed, her skin had improved significantly!

The male favorite's aura was truly pure and white!

She smiled faintly. However, the smile vanished from the corners of the Female Emperor of Canglan Country's eyes the next moment.

"Summon the attendants, we're going to Feixu Palace!"

With her command, the attendants who served her immediately organized themselves in an orderly manner.

The Female Emperor of Canglan Country had a peculiar habit. Wherever she went, not only did the people around her have to bathe and burn incense, but the path she walked had to be covered with brocade.

Furthermore, fresh flower petals had to be scattered on the brocade, and the fragrance of those petals had to constantly linger around her.

Fortunately, the Female Emperor of Canglan Country didn't enjoy wandering around. Otherwise, the amount of silver she spent on this daily ritual would be enough to make an average family prosperous for a lifetime.

When the Female Emperor of Canglan Country followed the palace maids to Feixu Palace, she lifted her head and looked at the plaque above the palace entrance.

In her eyes, there was only endless darkness.

What could the chief of the Tianshan Fire Clan do? What could having the purest aura in the world amount to?

In the end, he would still rot to death with her in the depths of this palace.

If she couldn't leave, then others would have to accompany her. Until the moment that damned Ming Zhu arrived in Lan City!

Suppressing the darkness in her gaze, the Female Emperor of Canglan Country raised her head again. The heavy doors of Feixu Palace had already been pushed open by the palace maids.

Passing through the thick doors, when the Female Emperor of Canglan Country entered the courtyard, the owner of the courtyard was already kneeling and waiting for her.

As the Female Emperor of Canglan Country looked at the slender man kneeling in the courtyard, a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes.

There was a time when he was a flamboyant and unrestrained person.

Back then, he was so free. He possessed a freedom she could never envy!

But now, for the sake of his half-dead tribe, he had no choice but to be trapped in this bottomless palace wall with her, unable to escape.

"Luo Xuan, I've received a letter from the new Female Emperor of Han Country, your good son Ye Yi's wife. Would you like to know what she wrote to me?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know," Luo Xuan whispered.

"Do you really not know, or do you not want to know?"

Hearing the Female Emperor of Canglan Country's mocking voice, the man who had been kneeling on the ground, his head lowered, slowly raised his head.

It was a resolute and strong face, lacking the fair and delicate features that belong to men of the inner palace, and devoid of exquisite eyebrows and eyes.

However, at first glance, it could only bring warmth and comfort. It seemed that merely gazing into his steadfast gaze would make one's restless heart settle.

Luo Xuan lifted his head and looked at the breathtakingly beautiful face of the Female Emperor of Canglan Country before him. Once, when they first started living together, they had moments of warmth.

During that time, they had three children: the eldest daughter Ye Xi, the second son Ye Yi, and the youngest son Ye Nuo.

But now! Ye Xi had been poisoned into a living death by her, and Ye Yi was firmly controlled like a puppet in her hands.

Even their youngest son, Ye Nuo, had died while searching for his older brother. And the reason for Ye Nuo's death was also the poison his loving mother had administered to him.

How did their relationship deteriorate to this point? When did it become so adversarial?

Now, the ruler is no longer a ruler, the subject is no longer a subject. The wife is no longer a wife, and the husband is no longer a husband.

Furthermore, the mother is not truly a mother, and he, as a father, is not a qualified one.

Steadying his fluctuating heartbeat, Luo Xuan looked at the Female Emperor of Canglan Country and spoke softly.

"Ye Hui, Ye Yi is your own flesh and blood. We have two sons and one daughter. Our eldest daughter, Ye Xi, and our youngest son, Ye Nuo, have already died. Now, only Ye Yi is left alive.

Could it be? Are you really willing to push Ye Yi to the brink of death as well? Is there not even a trace of affection in your heart for the child you brought into this world, regardless of your feelings for me? Do you truly want to force Ye Yi into a desperate situation?"

In response to Luo Xuan's eyes filled with grief, the Female Emperor of Canglan Country's eyes revealed only a sense of satisfaction after revenge.

But she didn't know what she was truly seeking revenge for.

All she knew was that she wanted to drag everyone around her into the quagmire, to cry with her, to share in her pain, and to sink into endless darkness.

Kneeling on the ground, Luo Xuan looked at the madness in the eyes of the Female Emperor of Canglan Country, and he couldn't help but close his eyes in disappointment.

Smelling the nauseating fragrance emanating from her, he also knew that another man had just died in her bed.

What has happened to her?

If she were merely promiscuous, then no one would dare utter a word against her no matter how many male consorts she took.

But the reality?

Now, in the palace of Canglan Country, besides him, only a few powerful lords and concubines remained, barely surviving in this palace filled with deathly silence.

Her former attendants and male consorts, one after another, died on her bed.

When the palace attendants and male consorts inside the palace perished, she went outside the palace to find more.

And so, one after another, young boys, who hadn't truly grown up, silently died in her bed, perished in the maw of this monstrous palace.

Looking at the bloody red in the eyes of the Female Emperor of Canglan Country, the last trace of hope in Luo Xuan's heart was extinguished.

He now only had Ye Yi as his child, and he could no longer let his own shattered life burden Ye Yi.

As for his own family, let it be!

The Baichi Clan has turned into the living dead, imprisoned in a coffin by their matriarch. A half-dead person can't bear the burden alone, and it's time for Luo Xuan to let go and give Ye Yi a chance at survival.

If Ye Yi can escape from this palace, leave Canglan Country, and reach Han Country to find his own matriarch, then based on her character, she will protect not only Ji the Divine Physician and Ruoqiu but also Ye Yi himself.

The Female Emperor of Canglan Country caught a glimpse of the lifelessness in Luo Xuan's eyes and couldn't help but laugh lightly. She bent down, her hands adorned with rouge, and gently pinched Luo Xuan's chin.

"Luo Xuan, do you want to die now? Unfortunately, your time hasn't come yet. You can only die when Ye Yi's matriarch arrives in Lan City.

Only when she arrives will you, along with the Baichi Clan you've protected for half your life, your eldest daughter, and your son, be able to die together."

"Yehui, you've tormented me for decades. I'm old now and no longer of any use to you.

The Baichi Clan is no more, Xiaoxi and Xiaonuo are dead. Only Ye Yi, my child, remains.

Yehui, you know in your heart that Ye Yi is a good child. If he had even an ounce of your ruthlessness, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation today."

Upon hearing Luo Xuan's words, the Female Emperor of Canglan Country couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Luo Xuan, at your age and after experiencing so much, how can you still be so naive?

Kind-hearted! Compassionate! These are not the qualities a prince should possess, not even one of them.

Throughout the history of Canglan Country, every Female Emperor who sat in my position had hands stained with the blood of their own kin.

But what about Ye Yi? I instructed him to kill those disgusting twins, but he would rather die than comply. He secretly released my good sister and your despicable brother from the palace.

I ordered those twin siblings to be thrown into a pack of wolves, but they survived.

Tell me... Doesn't the blood of your Tianshan Baichi Clan flow in the veins of those twins? Is your Tianshan Baichi Clan naturally born as lowly beings?

Otherwise, why is it that the appearance of your Tianshan Baichi Clan is unremarkable, yet they managed to seduce one imperial princess after another?

You seduced me, and your own brother seduced my beloved sister, resulting in the birth of those repulsive twins. And now, your good son has managed to captivate the Female Emperor of Han Country."

Upon hearing the Female Emperor of Canglan Country raise her voice, Luo Xuan muttered incredulously.

"Does Ming Zhu truly intend to go to such lengths for Ye Yi? Does she really want to exchange those fifty thousand captured soldiers of Canglan Country for my good son, Ye Yi?"

"Yes, that's right. However, her appetite is not small. Besides Ye Yi, she also wants Murong Family's youngest son, Murong Hai, and the bastard child, Gushan, who defected from me.

I told Ming Zhu that if she truly wanted to make the exchange, she would have to come to Canglan Country in person.

Otherwise, there would be no discussion!

Only when she arrives can your suffering end. And I, too, will achieve true freedom."

After a triumphant laugh, the Female Emperor of Canglan Country disregarded her imperial image and squatted directly in front of Luo Xuan, speaking softly.

"Luo Xuan, guess what? Will the Empress of Han Country, for the sake of your good son Ye Yi, willingly come to Canglan Country despite knowing that it's a trap set specifically for her, just to welcome Ye Yi back to her own Han Country?"

"Ye Hui, what are you planning? If you dare to kill the Empress of Han Country, not only will the State Teacher not spare you, but even High Priest Hanye of Han Country won't let you off the hook," Luo Xuan anxiously pleaded while pulling at the Female Emperor of Canglan Country's clothes.

"Shut up!"

A resounding slap landed harshly on Luo Xuan's face.

The Female Emperor of Canglan Country withdrew her hand and lightly flicked her nails, which were painted with henna. Along with her cold laughter, her eyes couldn't conceal their murderous intent.

"So what if they won't spare me? As long as I have Ming Zhu under my control, Han Ye and Han Xibei, no matter how formidable they are, will obediently listen to me.

Once Ming Zhu arrives in Canglan Country, I have my ways of dealing with her. It's been so long, and that damn Ming Zhu is about to be by my side.

Hahaha... I can hardly wait!

I can't wait to kill her!"
