In the twenty-first year of Long'an, the winter was bitterly cold and heavy snow was flying.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, the Su family, which had protected the country for a hundred years, was executed for treason and all the members of the family died tragically. For a time, everyone in the imperial city was in danger.

"Mu Ling! Do you really think that you can sit firmly in your high position by killing the entire Su family? You and I both know how you got your current position. Without me and my Su family, you would be nothing but an ant hiding in a corner! You can only live by relying on others!"

On the wall of the Great Zhou Imperial City, Su Jingning was wearing a moon-white silk dress, standing on the edge of the high wall, her slender figure swaying, her expression cold and resolute. Looking at the elegant but indifferent scary man in the distance and the little girl in her arms, Su Jingning suddenly realized that she had been on the wrong path for half her life, and in the end, she was the one who killed the entire Su family.

"Su Jingning! The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was destroyed long ago. For the sake of our past friendship, if you hand over the Su family's formation map and military talisman to me, I will spare your life." Mu Ling looked at Su Jingning with disgust, as if he was looking at something extremely unclean.

"Hahahahaha, what's the difference between me being dead and now? Since you destroyed the Su family, you should know that you will never get the Su family's formation manual and military talisman in this lifetime. Without the Su family's help, I wonder how you can sit firmly on the throne of the Great Zhou."

Su Jingning looked at him, feeling sad and regretful. This was the man she had loved for five years! Her half-life obsession was really ridiculous!

She was the only legitimate daughter of the century-old famous Duke Zhenguo Mansion and had been pampered since childhood. When she first met him, he was just a prince with a humble mother and was not valued.

In order to be with him, she disobeyed her parents and left her family. In order to help him ascend to a high position, she hid her identity and planned for him for five years, killing gods and ghosts to eliminate dissidents for him.

When he was about to achieve success and fame, he colluded with Su Ruofu, the adopted daughter of the Su family, to frame the Su family, which had defended the country for a hundred years, for colluding with foreign enemies, and accused the Su family of treason! Hundreds of members of the Su family died tragically in front of him!

"Su Ruofu, no matter how elegantly you dress, you can't change your inherent inferiority complex. You will have to live in my shadow all your life, like a rat in a gutter, never seeing the sun!" She looked at Su Ruofu, who was dressed in noble and elegant clothes, with a cold, arrogant and compassionate expression, as if it was not herself who was trapped, but the two people in front of her.

The pretty and gentle woman in Mu Ling's arms was stabbed and felt pain. Her face turned pale and she spoke calmly.

"Su Jingning, do you know what I hate most about you? It's your nonchalant attitude! Why? You were born as the daughter of the noble Duke of Zhenguo, with a noble status, and your father and brothers dote on you. Even if you betrayed the family, they would still protect you! And I, I tried so hard but still got nothing? I've had enough of living under someone else's roof and relying on others for more than ten years! You deserve to die! They deserve to die too! Now I'm the winner, I'm the queen of the Great Zhou, and you lose! "

Su Ruofu is the adopted daughter of the Su family, the daughter of Deputy General Chen, the deputy general of the Duke of Zhenguo. Her father's poor command led to the tragic death of tens of thousands of soldiers on the border. It was her father who took the risk to protect her, raised her under his knees and spoiled her as his own daughter, but he didn't expect that he would raise a poisonous snake, which harmed the entire Su family.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, I, Su Jingning, have never lost in this life of strategy, and I will never lose. Mu Ling, you haven't even firmly established your throne in the Great Zhou Dynasty! How dare you betray me and my Su family!" Su Jingning looked at Mu Ling and laughed wildly, with tears in the corners of his eyes.

Mu Ling looked at Su Jingning, who was smiling like a flower. She was extremely beautiful, and the white dress made her look like an immortal. But Mu Ling felt cold in his heart. What did she mean?

"Mu Ling, I can send you to the throne, or I can make you lose everything." Su Jingning slowly turned his back to them, and his casual voice reached Mu Ling's ears.

She looked at the black line gradually approaching in the distance, and the light in her beautiful almond-shaped eyes gradually disappeared.

"Su Jingning! What did you do!?" Mu Ling then discovered the dark army that appeared without anyone noticing, and the man sitting in the commander's seat at the front of the team. The man was dressed in an elegant black fox fur coat, dignified and noble. Although he was not wearing armor, he could not hide the bloody and ruthless kingly temperament on his body.

Mu Ling's face turned pale. These hundreds of thousands of troops appeared silently in the imperial city right under his nose! This must be related to Su Jingning!

"Su Ruofu! Mu Ling! I want you to go to hell with me and be buried with my Su family! Atone for your sins!" Su Jingning looked at them fiercely, his eyes red and the hatred in his eyes seemed to be overflowing.

She handed over the Su family's military talismans and formation manuals to Gu Yan'an, the man she had been afraid of for half her life.

"Gu Yan'an! You are planning a rebellion!" Mu Ling panicked. He leaned over and rushed to the city wall, shouting at the man in front of the team in the distance.

"If I want this world, when will it be your turn?" The man had a handsome face that looked like a demon or an immortal. He raised his eyes and glanced at the flustered new emperor on the city wall, his eyebrows and eyes were cold.

He looked at Su Jingning who was standing on the city wall. Her white dress was fluttering in the wind, and it seemed that she would be blown away by the wind in the next moment. His hand that was stroking the Buddhist beads tightened.

"Gu Yan'an! I remember you promised me that you would grant me a wish whenever I needed it. I want you to fulfill your promise today! Kill Mu Ling and Su Ruofu for me and redress the injustice for my Su family!" Su Jingning looked at the man in the distance who was always arrogant and powerful. If it weren't for Mu Ling, they might have become friends instead of enemies.

If she were to live again, she would protect everyone in the Su family! She would protect the Su family's glory for a hundred years! She would never make the same mistake again and let tragedy happen again.

"Gu Yan'an! Goodbye!"

Su Jingning smiled at Gu Yan'an, his smile was sincere and pure, as clean as a holy lotus in the snow. After saying that, he jumped off the city wall...

"Da...da da da..." The Buddhist string wrapped around the white and slender fingertips suddenly broke and scattered all over the frame.

Gu Yan'an watched him pray silently, and the girl he had secretly protected for half his life jumped in front of him and jumped off the city wall without any regrets.

The cold-hearted, arrogant Lord of the Northern Frontier, the high-ranking Regent of the Great Zhou, actually lost his composure in front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. He was so flustered that he could not even walk steadily and stumbled to Su Jingning.

Looking at the woman lying on the snow, her body covered in blood, her eyes closed, and her face bright and beautiful, Gu Yan'an's eyes were red, and he held her in his arms tremblingly, his voice trembling.

"Su Jingning! Wake up!"

"Su Jingning!!!!"

"Wake up....I'm sorry, I'm late..."

A tear suddenly fell between the brows of the sleeping beauty.

Later, the regent of the Great Zhou who had lived in the northern border for a long time led a large army to break through the imperial city of the Great Zhou. He imprisoned the new emperor and the empress in a dark prison and used all the tortures of the Great Zhou on them, torturing them for more than a month. Then he hung them on the city wall and hanged them to death. Their bodies were exposed to the sun and rain. The methods were extremely cruel and bloody.

He also personally retried the treason case of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion and overturned the injustice of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. He also posthumously conferred the title of King of Zhenguo on Duke of Zhenguo Su Bo.

Later, when everyone thought that the regent was going to ascend the throne, he casually adopted an eight-year-old child from the side branch of the Emperor's family and made him the emperor. From then on, he disappeared from the Great Zhou...
