The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

"You can't...Gao Qingnian you can't do this to me!"

Fu Rongxin was so frightened that her legs went limp, but Gao Qingnian grabbed her wrist and lifted her up.

He smiled grimly: "Don't think I'm a fool. You drugged me. I don't know who you want to use me as a pawn to deal with. Otherwise, why would you be so guilty as to kill someone to silence him? When the time comes, I will be unable to distinguish myself from adultery, and you can get away with it!"

As he spoke, he stroked Fu Rongxin's pale face again: "Murder is more serious than adultery, not to mention that the victim is the empress dowager's granddaughter. It's a pity that such a beautiful face will be cut into pieces, bit by bit, and then hung up for public display."

Fu Rongxin just felt her whole body stiff...

Originally, as things had developed in the previous life, Xue Zhiyi would be in trouble in no time. Why... why did she go to such lengths to force herself into such a situation where she could be bullied by anyone!

She shouldn't have come here! She shouldn't have plotted against Xue Zhiyi! She regretted it! She really regretted it!

But now that things have come to this, there is no turning back for Fu Rongxin.

While she was in a daze, Gao Qingnian pushed her onto the table where Fu Ling was copying scriptures, and he also pulled her body so that her back was facing him.

"You gave me the medicine, so you have to take the medicine yourself!"

Realizing what Gao Qingnian was trying to do, she struggled desperately.

But Gao Qingnian's voice sounded faintly beside her ear, with a hot breath: "It seems that Miss Fu really wants to die, but I still can't bear to let my woman die."

Fu Rong's heart froze... She couldn't kill Gao Qingnian, nor could she escape from here...

She has no choice.

Giving up struggling, she became numb and allowed herself to be manipulated by the person behind her.

She bit her hand tightly to prevent herself from making that broken and humiliating sound.

But why...why!

She is the true phoenix, a favored daughter of heaven!

She had died once, and she was reborn to be the queen! How could she...how could she be easily defiled by such a person?!

The one who should bear all this is Xue Zhiyi, the scapegoat!

This isn’t fair… it isn’t fair!

Xue Zhiyi must die! She must die! She wants to cut that bitch into pieces!

I'm going to make that bitch suffer a thousand times more! I'm going to make her regret being born into this world!

……

In a moment, the matter was done.

Fu Rongxin's eyes were red, and he sat on the ground in a daze with his clothes in disarray.

Gao Qingnian felt refreshed after the effects of the medicine were removed.

With a rustling sound, he tore off a corner of Fu Rongxin's underwear and put it in his arms. On it were patterns embroidered by her herself and a strange smell of blood.

Before leaving, he patted Fu Rongxin's face and said, "Be honest if you want to live. Otherwise, if something happens, I can't guarantee that I won't confess anything."

……

But what Fu Rongxin didn't know was that when Gao Qingnian dragged her into the Buddhist temple -

After Xue Zhiyi dealt with Xue Hanshu's marriage, he had been wondering what Fu Rongxin was planning.

In particular, after they separated in the garden, she saw Fu Rongxin going towards the rockery, and vaguely saw Gao Qingnian following her.

With some curiosity, Xue Zhiyi went to the rockery.

Su Yue followed behind her and asked her, "Miss, this place is damp and musty. What are you doing here?"

Xue Zhiyi only replied: "I didn't do anything, just took a walk."

There was nothing unusual here, and Fu Rongxin did not leave any traces.

I guess I was overthinking it. Maybe it was the same as in my previous life, Gao Qingnian just got lustful and followed me to harass Fu Rongxin.

Just as she was about to leave, her peripheral vision caught sight of the lake.

The rockery and Fu Ling's Buddhist temple were facing each other across the water, and at this moment, there was actually a person floating in the lake!

“Miss, that is…!”

Su Yue also discovered it.

The person in the water has stopped struggling and it is unclear whether he is dead or alive.

"Miss, I'll go call someone!" Su Yue said hurriedly.

"It's too late." Xue Zhiyi said in a deep voice.

The person is already silent, and calling for help would be a waste of time.

In no time, Xue Zhiyi took off his heavy coat and jumped into the water.

"Miss!" Su Yue was almost going crazy by the lake.

The lady is a girl in the boudoir, she can’t swim!

But Su Yue didn't know that Xue Zhiyi could actually swim.

In her previous life, after she fell into Chunfeng Tower, she went to seek help from Prince Gong Gu Shichong, but was sent back by Gu Shichong.

That time, she was put in a water dungeon.

The water in the dungeon reached her chest, and if she lost her balance, she would fall into the water.

In order to survive and to make herself feel more comfortable in captivity, she was tied with an iron chain in the water, and she actually learned how to swim by floating up and down.

She was imprisoned for about seven days, and only on her deathbed did she agree to receive guests.

In the lake, Xue Zhiyi was as light as a small fish. She held up the person who fell into the water. Fortunately, the child was only in his teens, not big enough and a little lighter, otherwise she might not be able to hold him up.

Xue Zhiyi stuck her head out of the water, only to find that both the waterside pavilion on the opposite bank and the place where she had just entered the water were very far away. In addition, the water level was low in autumn and the bank was much higher than the water surface. She would definitely not be able to climb up with someone.

Looking around, she saw a rockery stone that had been submerged in the lake water all year round, which was exposed above the water surface because the water level had dropped.

After calming down a little, Xue Zhiyi swam over with the man.

After landing here, there is a rockery cave. You need to go around a big circle to get back to the shore where Su Yue is.

But after all the trouble, she was already exhausted. How could she have the strength to carry someone out?

We can only provide rescue on the spot.

She turned the child over, and the moment she saw the face clearly, Xue Zhiyi was shocked.

Princess Anle Huo Zhiyu...

Why did she fall into the water out of nowhere?!

Without time to think, she pried open Huo Zhiyu's mouth to let him breathe, and then pressed his chest repeatedly, finally making Huo Zhiyu cough up a mouthful of water.

Fortunately, I am still conscious.

It’s just that he had been drowning for too long, and although he coughed up water, there was no sign of waking up.

Xue Zhiyi had no choice but to continue pressing her chest, but this was a strenuous job and she was already exhausted, with her arms feeling extremely sore.

Huo Zhiyu must not die.

Although the main fault for the incident lies with the failure of the people around him to serve him well, what if the Queen Mother holds the Xue family accountable?

Xue Zhiyi hated the Xue family, but she had not yet severed her ties with the Xue family, and she did not want to perish together with them.

What's more, the child is really pitiful. His carefree days only have a few years left. If he dies here, the few joys he has will be gone.

At this moment, a scream was heard.

"Ayu!"

Xue Zhiyi turned around suddenly, but was stunned for a moment.

The person who spoke was a young man in red, with a pair of exceptionally sharp phoenix eyes. Although he had thin lips, he did not look mean. His hair was combed high into a tuft, and the ribbon tied with his hair hung down on his shoulders.

He was the young man she met at the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival and who saved Shen Qingtang with her.

But unlike his eyes that were full of fireworks that night, at this moment his eyes were full of anxiety.

His eyes stayed on Xue Zhiyi's face for only a moment, and then the boy quickly leaned down and called Huo Zhiyu's name.

"Ayu, what's wrong with you? Second brother is here, don't be afraid!"
