The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

"Ah... it hurts..." The Queen Mother was consumed by a new round of pain. She could clearly feel that thousands of insects were eating her alive.

Her breathing was rapid, her pupils dilated, her eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets because of the pain, and her hands tightly grasped her clothes, her fingertips almost breaking from the excessive force.

"Please, please, please give me the antidote..." The Queen Mother was in so much pain that her nose and saliva could not be controlled, and she used the last of her sanity to beg for mercy.

But Shi Anxia said leisurely, "Have you forgotten that you told me in person that there is no antidote for 'Thousand Insect Powder'?"

The Empress Dowager felt a sharp pain in her head, as if she saw Shi Anxia kneeling in the rain begging for medicine.

She cried so miserably for a palace maid, "Please Queen Mother, give me medicine! Please Queen Mother, give me medicine! Queen Mother, I promise not to investigate Xiyue's death anymore. Please give Dongxi the antidote..."

The Empress Dowager at that time looked at Shi Anxia with disgust, "What evidence do you have to prove that this 'Thousand Insect Powder' was created by me?"

Shi Anxia kowtowed like crazy, her forehead was covered in blood, and she begged incoherently, "I have no evidence! I know it wasn't the Queen Mother who gave me the drug, but I beg the Queen Mother to give me the antidote... I will never investigate Xiyue's death again, I will never investigate it again, please give me the antidote!"

Shi Anxia saw with her own eyes that Xiyue was reduced to nothing but skin, so how could she bear to see Dongxi become like this?

She disregarded her status and only sought to save Dong Xi's life.

But the Queen Mother said, "Where is the antidote for 'Thousand Insect Powder'? There is no antidote in this world."

……

The Empress Dowager eventually fainted from the pain and lay on the ground like a lifeless corpse.

Shi Anxia quietly looked at the nails dyed with rouge on her slender jade fingers, and her smile was as cold as frost.

She had never understood why Emperor Rongguang had so few children in his harem, but later she found out that it was the Empress Dowager's doing.

The Empress Dowager wanted the bloodline of the Li family to inherit the throne, so she secretly sent people to drug and kill the babies in the bellies of other concubines, including her own Anxia's, leaving only Li Lanzhi's son, who later became Emperor Yuqing.

Therefore, because Xiyue was interested in medical theory and loved to study medical skills, the Empress Dowager was afraid that she would discover the clues, so she regarded her as a thorn in her side and killed her.

It was many years later that Shi Anxia discovered the truth. She then decisively abandoned Emperor Yu Qing, who was already too dull and unable to handle the important task, and supported His Royal Highness Prince Ling to ascend the throne.

She just refused to do what this old poisonous creature wanted!

The Empress Dowager curled up in pain, her pale face almost unrecognizable under the dim candlelight. Her hair was sparse and white, large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and her mouth twitched, drooling uncontrollably.

Shi Anxia's eyes were full of indifference and determination. He walked closer to her and whispered, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that my husband is Emperor Heng of Liang. Soon, we will take back the throne. By then, I will still be the queen..."

The Queen Mother suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the Phoenix Girl in front of her with all her might.

Emperor Heng of Liang! Chen Yuan! She remembered that Emperor Heng of Liang seemed to be called Cen... Yuan... So that's it!

Shi Anxia smiled and said, "The emperor also knows about this, so you can't alienate us. Oh, by the way, Shi Anrou should also know about it, but she... heh, just doesn't like to tell you."

The Queen Mother was so angry that she seemed to have forgotten the pain. Her lips trembled and she could not speak clearly. "She, she, she knows it too!"

Shi Anxia said everything he had to say, and without even looking at her, he stood up and walked out of the cell door, leaving behind four words, "You brought this upon yourself."

Behind her, the Queen Mother let out a roar of grief and anger and a wail of pain.

Shi Anxia took out a bag of silver from her sleeve and handed it to the jailer, "Take good care of her."

The jailer nodded ingratiatingly, took the silver bag, and hurriedly lit a stick of incense.

The smell of that incense can make the "Thousand Insects Powder" more active. Debts owed must always be repaid.

When Shi Anxia walked out of the cell, he saw Dong Xi and Xi Yue standing under the eaves, squeezed between Bei Hui, Nan Yan, Hong Que and Hong Yan, and his eyes inexplicably became wet.

The evening breeze was light, cicadas were chirping, and the drizzle was like silk threads. How wonderful! Her sisters were still alive, and the family was complete.

As soon as Ye Baoer saw her come out, he broke free from the rope in Hongyan's hand and ran towards Shi Anxia, ​​wagging his tail.

Shi Anxia stroked Ye Baoer's head and bent down to pick up the leash.

"Madam, please change your cloak quickly. It's unlucky in prison." Bei Hui came in with a thin silk cloak draped around her wrist.

Hong Que rushed forward to take off Shi Anxia's cloak, and Bei Hui tied a new cloak for her.

Bei Hui said, "Madam, let's get on the carriage and go back."

Shi Anxia shook her head, her eyes gently falling on Dong Xi and Xi Yue, "Tonight, I want to get drunk with you guys."

Several maids showed some joy in their eyes, only Bei Hui was still sober, "Madam, let's go tomorrow, go out early tomorrow. It's too late today."

Shi Anxia rarely acted like a spoiled child, "Sister Bei Hui, please obey me just this once! Just this once, okay?"

Bei Hui looked at her master helplessly, "Does the young master know?"

Shi Anxia smiled, "He knows. I have reported it to him."

Hong Que spoke quickly, "The young master must have arranged secret guards to protect us, so we won't be in danger."

Bei Hui pointed at Hong Que's forehead and said, "You just love to play! Once you hear the word 'play', you forget everything else."

Hongque bit her lips and smiled, she didn't say anything, but she was extremely happy.

Shi Anxia looked up at the dripping rain curtain, and thought that from now on, everything would be peaceful and smooth.

Several people got on the carriage and headed towards the Congyin River, chatting and laughing.

Along the way, the ones who loved to talk the most were Hong Que Hong Yan and Nan Yan, with Bei Hui occasionally saying a few words. Only Xi Yue and Dong Xi listened, watched and laughed seriously, but rarely spoke.

It was the same in the previous life, Xiyue and Dongyu were both taciturn. But Shi Anxia knew that they both had the same desire to protect their master.

After Shi Anxia was reborn, she tried her best to restrain herself from thinking about their past lives, because the "Thousand Insect Powder" really tortured the two girls too much.

Xiyue cried and begged her, "My queen, please kill me! Please kill me! I am in so much pain, so much pain!"

But how could Anxia bear to kill Xiyue at that time? Watching her turn into a piece of skin...

Later, Dong Xi was also poisoned by "Thousand Insect Powder". When An Xia went to ask the Empress Dowager for an antidote but failed to get one, she personally ordered the killing of Dong Xi.

She couldn't let Dong Xi be tortured to death like Xi Yue.

These two people are the pains in her heart that she dares not and is most unwilling to touch... At this moment, she is finally relieved.

The Congyin River is even more beautiful on a rainy night, with pleasure boats hanging with lanterns slowly sailing through the sparkling water.

The warm light of the lanterns spread out in the drizzle, interweaving with the silver light dancing on the river surface to form a flowing dreamy picture.

A pleasure boat named "Chuyang Fang" had been waiting by the river, and the owner had been looking forward to it for a long time.
