There were flames everywhere in the imperial city.

Mu Peiyun was weak and in a very miserable state, lying at the foot of the Xuanwu Gate, which was engulfed in flames.

Looking at this imperial city that was magnificent during the day, it is now filled with smoke and foul smells.

There were corpses scattered all over the ground, and the bright red blood seemed to be announcing the bad news.

The horrific scenes flashed through Mu Peiyun's mind again and again, causing waves of pain in her heart.

"Sister, you are so lucky. Even now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still willing to come to this imperial city and die for you."

Mu Peiyun's tendons in her hands and feet had been severed. She felt pain all over and had no strength to move.

Hearing the voice, Mu Peiyun used all her strength to raise her head slightly, but before she saw the person, she was kicked hard in the waist, and she gasped in pain.

Mu Peiyun was ultimately unable to turn over. Just when she was about to give up and look back to see who had kicked her, a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes suddenly appeared in front of her.

As his eyes moved upwards along the shoes, Mu Peiyun's face gradually turned pale.

"why you?"

"It's Yaoyao."

After saying that, Mu Peiyao looked at Mu Peiyun with some disgust, and couldn't help but mocking her: "Sister, you usually love cleanliness, why are you lying on this dirty ground motionless now?"

"Oh, by the way, Yaoyao forgot that her sister can't move."

Mu Peiyun suddenly felt very unfamiliar with the woman in front of him.

But she is Mu Peiyao, her biological sister who has the same father as her, and Yaoyao who is always by her side and is well-behaved and obedient.

Although Mu Guo attached great importance to the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, she always treated Mu Peiyao as her own sister. She always gave half of the new toys her brother found for her to Mu Peiyao.

Because of her, her brother, like her, treated Mu Peiyao as his own sister, loving her in every way. But is the person in front of him still Mu Peiyao?

"Did you do it?" Mu Peiyun didn't dare to hear the answer, and there was an unknown emotion flashing in her clear eyes.

"Yes, does it hurt, sister? I specially asked the Fifth Prince to give you a quick death when he attacked you. Isn't Yaoyao very considerate?"

As Mu Peiyao spoke, she reached out and pressed hard on the place where Mu Peiyun's tendons were cut. Her vicious eyes formed a sharp contrast with her words.

"Why are you doing this? From childhood to adulthood, I have always regarded you as my own sister. I have treated you well, given in to you everywhere, and protected you..." Mu Peiyun was interrupted by Mu Peiyao before she could finish her words.

She suddenly became fierce, her face twisted with anger, and she screamed at Mu Peiyun: "You treat me well? Throw your leftovers to me, and I have been your foil since you were a child, letting you steal the show.

Just because I am a concubine's child, should I be willing to accept your charity and be inferior to others all the time? "

Mu Peiyun stared blankly at the scene in front of her, which was enough to shock her to the core.

Mu Peiyao is the daughter of Su Ning, her mother's maidservant who came with the dowry. It is said that Mu Peiyao was born because her father got drunk and walked into the wrong room.

Her mother couldn't bear to see Su living outside with her child, so she suppressed her grief and promoted Su to concubine Ning. She sent her to live in Mujing Pavilion in the Prime Minister's Mansion and assigned two maids to serve her.

Mu Peiyun had just come back to her senses after being lost in her memories when she heard Mu Peiyao continue to say: "Oh, by the way, there are also father and your brother, who have probably been cut into pieces for regicide.

Speaking of which, sister, you are really lucky, but your mother is the legitimate daughter of the Regent's Palace and was named a princess since she was young, while I can only beg for mercy by your side.

It's just a pity that you didn't want such a good marriage with the Crown Prince, but insisted on marrying the Fifth Prince, while the Fifth Prince fell in love with me. Do you think this is your retribution?"

"Mu Peiyao, daddy is also your daddy, how could you have the heart to do that to me?" Mu Peiyun looked at Mu Peiyao in disbelief and asked.

"Daddy? No, no, no, he only has eyes for you since he was a child. I am just a mistake he made. I want him and you all to die miserably."

Looking at the ferocious face of Mu Peiyao, Mu Peiyun suddenly felt cold in his heart.

Her mother, the legitimate daughter of the Prince Regent, was given the royal surname and had a very noble status. However, she died before she even got married. Thinking about it now, wasn't it all an accident?

She and Crown Prince Mu Yunchen were married by the Emperor when she was 28 years old, but because of Mu Peiyao's instigation and the Fifth Prince's sweet words, did she miss the chance of becoming the perfect match for her?

Thinking of this, Mu Peiyun's tears fell drop by drop, soaking the ground. She felt ridiculous.

She can pay for her own stupidity, but what about others?

Whatever her parents, brothers, and Mu Yunchen did wrong, it was all because of her stupidity. She was a complete fool.

With tears blurring her eyes, Mu Peiyun could only see a person running towards her from afar. After her eyes were cleared of tears, she could see clearly that the person was Mu Yunyu.

"Yaoyao, it's bad. Mu Yunchen is coming with his elite troops. Our troops have never been on the battlefield before. I'm afraid we will be defeated."

Mu Yunyu never looked at Mu Peiyun lying on the ground from beginning to end. Perhaps it was because Mu Peiyun's current miserable appearance was too unbearable to look at.

Maybe it was because his mind had never stayed on Mu Peiyun from the beginning to the end, and everything was a lie he and she carefully wove for Mu Peiyun.

Mu Peiyun believed it and indulged herself in the sweetness of the gentle world, but her usefulness was gradually drained away.

Mu Peiyao's eyes flashed with panic, but then she regained her composure, squatted down, stretched out her finger to lift Mu Peiyun's chin, and sneered: "Brother Yu, don't be afraid. With my sister here, we will definitely win."

Only then did Mu Yunyu notice Mu Peiyun, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and he immediately took a few steps back in disgust.

Mu Peiyun found this very ridiculous, as this was the future husband she had carefully selected.

A future husband who destroyed everything for her the night before her wedding, a future husband who had an affair with Mu Peiyao behind her back.

Waves of nausea surged into his heart, and Mu Peiyun couldn't help vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood.

Mu Peiyao shook her chin away, patted her dress, twisted her waist and slowly walked towards Mu Yunyu, and said coquettishly: "Your Highness, she soiled my dress."

Mu Yunyu was very pleased and hugged Mu Peiyao, saying lovingly: "Yaoyao, bear with it for a while, she is still useful to us."
