Shaking her head vigorously, Su Yunxuan was choked with sobs and unable to speak.

"Royal brother, Royal brother, save me......" Su Shaoyu continued to shout from behind.

Seeing this, the maidservant beside him hurriedly took a tablecloth and stuffed it into his mouth. Unexpectedly, Su Shaoyu struggled even harder, and fell to the ground with the chair.

With a loud bang, Su Jibei's gaze finally turned to Su Shaoyu who was lying in a mess on the ground, but there was no warmth in his eyes anymore.

"Tie him up and lock him up." He stared at Su Shaoyu coldly and ordered the palace maid, "Send Shengxing over."

Shengxing was the emperor's personal eunuch. When the emperor became mentally unwell, Shengxing helped to handle government affairs. Later, the empress dowager intervened and took Shengxing to her palace.

The maid explained the situation with embarrassment. The emperor frowned, thought about it, and ordered the maid to go and bring Su Changfeng first.

Considering that it was already late and her father had just woken up, it would not be advisable for her to work too hard. Su Yunxuan suggested waiting until dawn. She had also made an appointment with Su Changfeng to go to the palace to pick him up.

Su Jibei knew that he didn't have much time left, so he insisted on summoning Su Changfeng into the palace immediately.

The maid took the emperor's token and hurried out to pass on the order. After a while, she brought Su Changfeng back.

It turned out that Su Changfeng, who had been busy all day, returned home in the evening. After learning about the peace terms sent by Feng Lan, he rushed to the palace regardless of anything.

The palace gate had been sealed, so he stayed there guarding, and no matter how Bai Shu and Bai Shu tried to persuade him, he refused to leave.

Su Yunxuan didn't know that Su Changfeng had been waiting at the palace gate for half the night, she just thought he came to pick her up in advance.

Seeing him come in, she was still lying on the bedside, tilted her head and shouted to him with joy on her face: "Brother Changfeng, come here quickly, my father has woken up, my father has finally woken up..."

Su Changfeng looked at her and slowed down his pace with a sad expression.

Su Yunxuan was puzzled and was about to urge him again when she noticed Bai Shu following Su Changfeng. She quickly stood up and ran over there, wanting to pull Bai Shu to help her father take a closer look.

She had only run a few steps when Su Changfeng on the opposite side suddenly opened his arms, ran over and hugged her tightly.

Only then did she notice the coldness of Su Changfeng's body.

Guessing something vaguely, Su Yunxuan responded by hugging Su Changfeng's waist and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Let's face it together."

Su Changfeng did not respond, but just hugged her tighter.

Along the way, he never got discouraged or gave in...

In the daytime, when he received the news from Ruofeng that he had found the Master Shiguo, he thought that they could finally be together in this life...

"Changfeng, come here." Su Jibei waved and shouted at them.

Su Yunxuan patted Su Changfeng gently on the back, pushed everyone away, and walked to the bed with Su Changfeng.

Waving his hand to exempt Su Changfeng from the formality, Su Jibei looked at the two people holding hands and said with a pleased smile: "Okay... okay, you guys..."

As soon as he started to speak, he started coughing violently.

Bai Shu followed the instructions and trotted forward to check on Su Jibei. His expression looked extremely ugly.

Without him saying anything, Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan could guess the result of the diagnosis.

Seeing that they all looked heavy-hearted, Su Jibei ignored Su Yunxuan's advice to let him rest, and insisted on sending the palace maids out of the room, leaving Su Yunxuan and Su Changfeng to explain three things.

One was to ask Su Changfeng to take the book of succession that he had secretly prepared from the bookshelf in the room, and order him to bring it to the court tomorrow.

The second was to order Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan to drain Su Shaoyu's blood, the more the better, and then send it to the Queen Mother to drink as soon as possible.

Third, he told Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan that he was willing to let the empress dowager drink his blood.

When he was very young, the Queen Mother told him that the purpose of giving birth to him was to provide blood for her.

The Queen Mother gave him life, and he had no complaints about repaying her in this way.

Su Yunxuan asked the Queen Mother why she needed to drink blood.

Su Jibei said he didn't know the specific reason.

But he later discovered that this blood could only come from the Queen Mother's offspring, and if the Queen Mother did not get blood for a long time, she would mysteriously turn into another person.

A dangerous person who has no family affection, great desires, and is extremely crazy.

He told Su Yunxuan that if the Queen Mother drank Su Shaoyu's blood and turned back into the original Queen Mother, he hoped Su Yunxuan would not hate the Queen Mother, because the Queen Mother must have her own difficulties and was unable to control herself.

He also told Su Yunxuan that it was he who did not listen to the Queen Mother's warning and insisted on accompanying Su Yunxuan's mother back to Fenglan to celebrate her birthday, which cut off the Queen Mother's blood supply and allowed that terrible man to emerge, causing all these tragedies.

Su Yunxuan didn't believe it. If his father wasn't there, why wouldn't the Queen Mother go find Su Shaoyu.

Su Ji told him again: The Queen Mother hated Su Shaoyu because Su Shaoyu's birth was not what she wanted.

It was precisely because he had witnessed the Queen Mother's dislike for Su Shaoyu since childhood that he developed pity and unlimited tolerance for his younger brother Su Shaoyu.

Su Jibei blamed himself extremely for not realizing that Su Shaoyu was hopeless sooner and almost harming Su Yunxuan.

Su Yunxuan didn't understand why his father didn't hate the Queen Mother and was still speaking for her. Even if he had no choice, what mother in the world would have the heart to keep hurting her own child?

Su Jibei explained that the empress dowager did not need much blood every month and it would not cause much harm to him.

He insisted that it was his refusal to believe the Queen Mother's advice that led to all this.

He said he knew that the Queen Mother was actually living an extremely miserable life.

Therefore, he completely disregarded his own body and increased the amount and frequency of bloodletting...

Su Yunxuan burst into tears and shook her head frantically after hearing this.

The pain in her heart was so severe that she almost lost consciousness. She didn’t know, she didn’t know… It seemed that no matter how hard she tried to move forward, there would always be more unknowns and sorrows waiting for her ahead…

Beside them, Su Changfeng watched without interrupting their conversation, but just held Su Yunxuan's trembling hand tightly.

Su Jibei raised his hand to wipe away Su Yunxuan's tears again and again.

Su Yunxuan's tears flowed like a spring and could not be stopped.

In order to ease Su Yunxuan's sadness, Su Jibei finally said that he was actually very grateful to the Queen Mother.

Thanks to the Queen Mother's persistence, he met Su Yunxuan's mother.

The two countries negotiated for peace, and the Queen Mother insisted on marrying Lu Qingxi, the granddaughter of General Lu Zhenyuan of Fenglan, to Yun Sheng. However, due to the threat from Prince Xu and the pressure from his father, he was too cowardly to refuse.

He originally thought that after he became the Emperor of Yunsheng, he could cancel the engagement and set Lu Qingxi free.

However, when he really married Lu Qingxi, Lu Qingxi lived in his heart at first sight.

He had heard rumors that Lu Qingxi had been engaged to Feng Zihao, the prince of Fenglan, and that Feng Zihao had betrayed Lu Qingxi.

He thought that as long as he was nice enough to Lu Qingxi, he would be able to impress her.

It’s a pity that he was ultimately unable to enter Lu Qingxi’s heart.

He said that in the end, he was greedy.

He was so greedy that even though he knew that the person in Lu Qingxi's heart had always been Feng Zihao, he still wanted Lu Qingxi to accompany him in fulfilling her duties and was reluctant to let her leave.

He said that he felt sorry for Su Yunxuan's mother.
