The First Genocide Hatred

  Mei'er held an agarwood stick in her hand, knelt on the ground and prayed to heaven: "Great and kind true god, I beg of you in the name of the Western Xia Holy Maiden, please bless the Empress Dowager of Shangguo with good health, and soon give birth to a dragon son. The holy maiden will be eternally grateful!"

  After finishing speaking, Chi Xiang bowed again and then stood up.

  "Holy maiden, you pray to the true god every day, and the true god will surely be moved by your sincerity and fulfill your wishes!" The little immortal took the incense stick from Mei'er's hand and placed it aside.

  Mei'er let out a soft sigh and said, "The Empress has been so kind to me, I really hope she can get pregnant with the Dragon Son soon. I hope it's like you said, that the gods in heaven are merciful and can hear my daily prayers, and grant blessings upon the Empress!"

  She prays every day, not for Yezi's blessing, but to ask God when she can avenge Wu Chen'er.

  "Saintess, you've been here for many days now, and the Emperor hasn't even come to see you once. Don't you feel wronged?" Little Fairy deliberately picked some sensitive topics to ask, making outsiders want to know the answer even more.

  Mei'er smiled at her and said, "Little fairy, I really don't feel any resentment. The king has said that my purpose for coming here is to help the queen conceive a dragon son. Seeing how much in love the queen and the emperor are, I really don't want to compete for favor. Besides, the queen has been so good to me, even if I were to spend the rest of my life alone here, I wouldn't try to compete with her for anything!"

  Her words were so touching and sincere, her tone was such that it left no room for doubt. Those who heard her outside naturally went back to report with complete peace of mind.

  Until 'Spider' walked away again, Mei'er smiled coldly: "Little Fairy, it seems that woman still doesn't trust us, we need to put on a few more shows!"

  She thought that Yezi's feelings were just a play for Wu Chen'er to see, and she would fall into Yezi's carefully woven trap time and time again. Now, she just wants to use the same method to deal with him.

  She wants to make Yezi feel grateful to her, and then let Yezi understand until the moment of his death that he lost in whose hands. She also wants Yezi to taste the feeling of being stabbed in the back by the person he trusts most.

  "Don't worry, fairy maiden, Xiaoxian will definitely cooperate with you!" From the moment Meier borrowed her original master's heart and brought it back to life, Meier became her new master, and their fates were tied together for this lifetime.

  It was the master who saved her, giving her a chance to be human, so this life, she only lives for her master. And since the master's heart beats for Mei'er, then this life, she will also live for Mei'er.

  Fengqi Palace

  "Miss, I just heard these!" Xiaofan returned and told Yezhiqin what he had heard.

  Ye Zi Qing listened with a great mood, a smug face: "Unexpectedly, this Western Xia Holy Girl is really simple-minded. It seems that our previous worries were unnecessary. She doesn't understand anything."

  "Your Ladyship, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I always feel that the Western Xia Holy Maiden is not as simple as she seems." Indeed, one who has seen many people.

  "Little fairy, do you suspect that she's just pretending? Once is possible, but every time it's a show?" Yezi Qing, skilled in tactics, seemed somewhat unbelieving. Would the seemingly simple and innocent Western Xia Holy Maiden be someone who resorts to sinister schemes?

  Ke Xiao Fan advised, "Your Majesty, let's be cautious. Look at the daughter of the former Minister of Rites, she was obedient to you when she first entered the palace, but in the end, she plotted against you behind your back. Fortunately, the Emperor has always been consistent in his treatment of you, or else she would have succeeded."

  Ye Zi's expression turned cold as she snorted, "That cheap woman, Qiao Yiyi, actually dared to play tricks behind my back. She really doesn't know her own strength. I'll send her to a brothel and let her sleep with twenty men every day. With how promiscuous she is, she should be grateful to me!"

  Qiao Yiyi, the daughter of Qiao Shuhui, the Minister of Rites, was cunning and had a single-minded desire to enter the palace as an imperial concubine. She eventually succeeded in entering the palace, where she tried every means to win Ye Ziqing's favor. When Ye Ziqing fell ill, she took advantage of the opportunity to get Commercial Tian drunk and then spent a night with him under the same blanket.

  Originally thought, oneself will soon be able to fly up the branch, but did not think that after being known by Yezi Qing, secretly sent her into a brothel, and ordered the old prostitute to arrange twenty men for Qiao Yiyi every day. If there are not enough people, even cats and dogs can go up!

  The Minister of Rites, Qiao Shu, and his whole family were killed in one night, not even a head was found, it's still an unsolved case!

  Ye Zi's ruthlessness is imaginable, she won't give her enemies a chance to rise again, just like what she did to Wu Chen'er's family back then. She knows that when cutting grass, one must eliminate the roots, otherwise it will grow again with the spring breeze!

  In front of people, she is the virtuous empress who rules with benevolence, but behind their backs, she is a ruthless and cunning woman, known only to those closest to her.

  Just like Xiaofan.

  "So, Princess, we still need to observe this Western Xia Holy Maiden for a while."

  Yezi nodded slightly and said, "This time, I'll use my illness as an excuse not to go with the Emperor to pray for blessings. Those women will definitely be waiting at the Houjun Gate for the Holy One. I'd like to see what that Western Xia Holy Maiden will do."

  "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll keep a close eye on them and won't let them get close to the Emperor." At this time, Xiao Fan always showed his competence and loyalty in a timely manner.

  "All the other women are just pawns, I'm not worried at all. You just need to take good care of that Western Xia Holy Maiden for me!" She hadn't forgotten how many times Shang Li Tian had looked at Mei'er in the Golden Dragon Hall.

  She is a woman with an extremely strong sense of possession. Physically, she cannot satisfy Shang Li Tian, but still wants to monopolize him. Her creed is that what she can't get, others shouldn't even think about getting, and what she has, others shouldn't even think about touching.

  "Don't worry, Your Highness, I'll keep a close eye on her!" Xiaofan was only in her early twenties, an age that should be filled with innocence and simplicity, but her face bore too many signs of premature aging and worldly wisdom. This was the palace, where women were far more mature than those outside its walls.

  Happy Valley

  Located in a dangerous place, the Happy Valley has a unique cave heaven. There is a pavilion comparable to the royal palace, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with flowers and birds singing, which is simply a paradise on earth.

  The host of the valley calls himself the King of Hedonism, and no one has ever seen his true face. Some say he is a handsome young man, because every time he appears, his face is covered with a silver mask. Others say that he is an extremely ugly man, so ugly that he uses a silver mask to cover it up.

  Every time he appears, that head of black hair is always unbound and unfastened, forever wearing that one set of wide and exquisite black robes, with those two cold eyes shining like stars outside.

  That powerful aura makes people dare not look straight at him.

  At this moment, he is sitting alone in the pavilion in the courtyard, quietly facing the chessboard, his slender fingers holding a chess piece that has been lifted for a long time but not put down, as if thinking deeply. He seems reluctant to put down the chess piece in his hand, or perhaps he doesn't know where to place it properly.

  Time seemed to stand still at that moment, he seemed to merge with everything around him, his hair like clouds and smoke poured down, scattered on his exquisite silver robe, his long hair covered his face, and his eyes were unclear.

  "Report to Master Gu, there is a guest arriving!" The servant's report came from the entrance.

  "Please!" The voice was full of slyness, but still maintained its previous posture.

  "Hesitating to make a move, perhaps the host has something on his mind?" A low voice suddenly came from the doorway and in an instant had arrived outside the pavilion.

  Not someone else, but Ye Baocheng, the state master of Shangguo!

  The chess piece in the hand of Kuai Huo Wang was put down on a certain place on the chessboard at that moment, and he asked without raising his head: "Master Guo came here today, didn't you bring good news?"

  Ye Baocheng lifted his Taoist robe, staring at the chessboard on the stone table, and slightly curled up the corner of his mouth, but did not directly answer Kuaihuo Wang's question: "This chess seems to be a dead end on the surface, but it actually hides vitality. Does the host have a new idea?"

  The lively king slowly stood up, his slender fingers inadvertently swept open the ink hair on his face, and his face still wore that silver mask, only to have those black pupils forever so deep.

  "National Master, you should be the clearest about this. The things I want to do have never failed, just like three years ago when you asked me to help eliminate the Wu family, didn't I succeed? However, National Master, the matters you promised me seem to have made no progress in three years. Are you thinking of terminating our cooperation?"

  The voice of Kuai Huo Wang seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the sentence that followed almost gave Ye Baocheng a chill down his spine.

  Ye Baocheng's face changed slightly, and he hastily said: "Master Valley misunderstood, I have never forgotten your matter, but this requires time..."
