The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

"Xue Zhiyi?" Gu Shimin repeated.

He said, "This is not the first time you have mentioned her."

Xue Tingliu said seriously: "Your Highness, Xue Zhiyi is willing to take poison for Gu Shichong. It is clear who she belongs to."

At this point, Gu Shimin chuckled: "You said last time that she and Huo Wuyou had an affair."

Xue Tingliu's eyes became more fierce. He snorted coldly, "This woman is fickle and born lowly. For the sake of power and wealth, she used the previous engagement to collude with Gu Shichong. She is not content with her own house and wants more, so she hooked up with Huo Wuyou, the empress dowager's beloved grandson. It's not surprising."

After hearing this, King Ke Cheng said, "She is just a little girl. If you think she is an eyesore, just get rid of her."

At this moment, with the sound of a door being pushed open, a woman's voice suddenly rang out: "Xue Zhiyi is insidious and cunning, he is not someone that is easy to deal with."

I saw a slender hand slowly lifting the curtain, revealing a woman with a beautiful face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and a slender body that seemed like it would fall down in the wind. Her skin was as white as jasmine, and she just smiled slightly, which made people's hearts flutter.

She said slowly: "If Your Highness wants to deal with Xue Zhiyi, I am willing to do my best."

But Gu Shimin was stunned. Then, he drew his sword and placed it across the woman's neck. His voice was so cold that it made people shudder: "You dare to eavesdrop on me, Fu Rongxin, you are tired of living."

After a brief moment of shock, Fu Rongxin calmed down a little. She slowly raised a gentle smile, raised her hand and gently pinched the sword: "Your Highness, I am the person who knows Xue Zhiyi best in the world, and I also hate Xue Zhiyi the most in the world. I am extremely grateful to Your Highness for saving my life. I only want to work for Your Highness in this life."

As she spoke, she knelt down slowly, holding the sword, bringing the blade close to the throbbing vein on her neck, and looking at Gu Shimin with her sparkling eyes in admiration: "If Your Highness doubts Rong Xin's loyalty, you can just kill Rong Xin."

She was already beautiful, and such sincere words, coming from such a person's mouth, seemed more believable.

There was no fear on her face. Even though the person in front of her was the one who had chopped off her head and killed her in her previous life, even if this person might try to kill her again, she had nothing to be afraid of... She already had nothing, so what could she not afford to gamble on?

Gu Shimin narrowed his eyes, lifted Fu Rongxin's chin with the sword, and said condescendingly: "Are you loyal?"

He suddenly smiled: "That day in prison, you said you knew the real culprit of the Yueling Pass tragedy, but after rescuing you, you said the real culprit was Shen Chiyan. Did you deceive me in order to get away?"

Fu Rongxin certainly knew whether Shen Chiyan was the real murderer in this incident. In the previous life, the entire Shen family was executed for this reason. However, she could not produce any evidence to prove it now.

After thinking for a while, she said, "During the Yueling Pass tragedy, His Majesty dispatched many people to provide reinforcements, including Shen Chiyan. Why is Your Highness so sure?"

But Gu Shimin just laughed, a laugh that made people feel a little puzzled.

After laughing, he lifted Fu Rongxin's chin a little higher so that he could clearly see her neck vein from this angle. He could cut it with a slight swing of the sword.

"Fu Rongxin, I am not a fool. If you dare to deceive me, you know my methods."

But Fu Rongxin's attitude of admiration was even more standard, with only reverence in his eyes: "But after hearing Rongxin's words that day, Your Highness was moved with compassion and kept Rongxin, wasn't he?"

The self-proclaimed proud Phoenix of Destiny actually had to wag its tail and beg for mercy one day. Even Fu Rongxin herself did not realize how humble she was at the moment.

She just thought that she had gone through so many twists and turns in her life and ended up next to Gu Shimin by accident. It must be her fate as a phoenix, which was fulfilled little by little after she had gone through so many hardships.

As long as she can take down Gu Shimin, as long as he ascends the throne in the future, even if she is not the queen, she can still be a concubine. With her means, it is only a matter of time before she becomes a real phoenix!

After staring at Fu Rongxin's face for a moment, Gu Shimin sneered.

It has to be said that it is indeed difficult to kill a beauty, so he spared Fu Rongxin's life. After all, beauties are common, but such a crazy and vicious beauty is a special kind of beauty.

Seeing that Gu Shimin said nothing, Fu Rongxin smiled even more deeply, and his attitude became more humble: "Your Highness is famous and wise, Rongxin has heard of it a long time ago, and I admire heroes like Your Highness even more in my heart. Now, even if I just bow down to Your Highness, even if I risk my life for Your Highness, it will not hesitate."

On the side, Xue Tingliu watched Fu Rongxin acting so seriously and couldn't help laughing for a moment. Didn't Prince Cheng know that he, Xue Tingliu, didn't know what Fu Rongxin was?

However, since there is someone who can help deal with Xue Zhiyi, there is no need for him to expose it.

Xue Tingliu echoed, "Your Highness is devoted to the former dynasty, so perhaps Fu Rongxin should be the one to come up with the ideas for these shady tactics in the deep palace."

After thinking for a while, Gu Shimin sheathed his sword. His voice was chilling, yet contained a hint of anticipation.

"If that's the case, then don't be soft-hearted. This king wants her to die a worthy death."

……

That day, Ye Ting.

A woman dressed as a palace maid was carrying a wooden barrel unsteadily. The contents inside gurgled with her footsteps and gave off an unpleasant sour odor.

With tears in her eyes, she was muttering something, but no one knew who she was cursing.

Tears fell down her face like stove ash, leaving gray mud on her face.

She wanted to raise her hand to wipe away her tears, but she lost her balance... the slop bucket in her hand fell to the ground, and the sour and smelly soup splashed all over the floor.

At this moment, someone suddenly pushed her from behind, causing her to fall heavily onto the ground filled with slop.

The one who pushed the person was also a servant palace maid, and standing beside her were several other servants who were also carrying swill buckets.

The one who pushed the man cursed condescendingly: "You can't even do such a small job properly, and you're going to make us miss dinner! You useless thing, don't you want to live anymore!"

The woman on the ground was crying breathlessly, and she quickly stood up and was about to tear the mouth of the man opposite her.

But two fists are no match for four hands, not to mention that they were a group of palace maids who had been in the palace for who knows how many years, with sturdy bodies and rude manners. They did not have the elegance and upbringing of the respectable masters in the palace. When they saw that she made a mistake and dared to fight back, they scratched her face in just a few strokes.

Sitting on the ground again, the man laughed out loud: "Do you think you are still a rich lady? Come on, your family has been convicted, and your life is worth less than the sewage on the ground!"

Another person echoed, "That's right, Xue Panrou, you should take a good look at yourself and stop pretending to be a noble lady all day long!"

Xue Panrou just lay on the ground in a daze. Her hair was disheveled and her face was covered with scratches. She looked in a miserable state.

In the past, she was the one who beat and scolded the servants. It was common for her to punish them by making them eat sewage or be whipped. She would even give them slaps at will. She never thought that there would be a day when she would be beaten and scolded by her servants.

She cried and gnashed her teeth in hatred: These people were not even worthy of carrying her shoes in the past, yet they dared to treat her like this, it was really outrageous!
