The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

The disdain and disgust in Xiao Yan's words were almost undisguised.

Shen Qiyin thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "You...seem to hate him..."

This is not a question, but an affirmation.

Xiao Yan said, "Hate it? No."

"That……"

"I hate him!" He hated him so much that just by mentioning it, undisguised murderous intent was revealed in his tone.

For a moment, Shen Qiyin didn't even dare to respond.

It’s true that you can judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart.

She had thought that Emperor Xuanwu treated Xiao Yan very well, but seeing his behavior now, she knew that "good" was definitely not as pure as she thought.

"I have you in my heart, so he decided to marry you and me. To outsiders, this is favoritism. I'm afraid Yinyin thinks the same way, right?"

“…Yeah.” That was indeed the case before.

"But the fact is, you don't have a noble family to support you. He can rest assured that I will marry you."

"Don't worry?" Shen Qiyin's brows darkened: "Is he afraid that you will seize power?"

"It's not about seizing power." Xiao Yan suddenly laughed.

His thin lips were slightly curled, and there was endless coldness in his eyes.

He said word by word: "It is to seize the throne."

Shen Qiyin pursed his lips and swallowed unconsciously.

He is not a prince, how can he seize the throne?

If you really want to rule the world, shouldn't you say "rebellion"?

Thinking of this, Shen Qiyin's heart tightened!

She suddenly looked up at Xiao Yan, only to see him looking at her expressionlessly, with only a pair of eyes that were shiny black.

“You… you, you are…”

"Yes."

"Really?!"

"Ah."

If others heard their conversation, they would probably be completely confused, but they could clearly understand each other's intentions.

Besides, Shen Qiyin was relieved when he got the positive answer, but at the same time, he was paradoxically worried.

What followed was more doubts.

Since he was a prince, why was he raised in the Ningguo Mansion? And he became the prince of the Ningguo Mansion?

Moreover, since he was obviously not the son of Duke Ningguo, why did he always call the Imperial Concubine "Aunt" in a friendly and affectionate manner, as if she were his own family?

Xiao Yan knew that she had many guesses in her mind, so he pulled her to sit down, and while looking after the former Queen Si, he told her a story from the past.

"Actually, I probably shouldn't have answered your question so confidently, because even my mother herself doesn't know whose son I am."

Shen Qiyin was dumbfounded by this simple sentence.

No, not sure?

That means...

"That happened a year after my parents got married."

Xiao Yan's mother, named Yin Shuang, was originally a nun who practiced Buddhism with her hair uncut.

That year, she accidentally saved the seriously injured Duke Ningguo, and was then brought back to Shangjing by him. Despite opposition from everyone in the clan, he insisted on marrying her as his wife.

Yin Shuang was not born into a high-class family and had once been a Buddhist. In addition, the fact that she married into the Ningguo Mansion caused a lot of controversy, so she did not have a very good reputation in Shangjing City.

Most of the women from prominent families disdained to associate with her.

Only the imperial concubine, who was not married at that time, was close to her and always protected her sister-in-law in front of and behind people.

Therefore, when the eldest lady later entered the palace as a concubine, Yin Shuang often went to the palace to visit her.

After a few visits, he became familiar with Empress Si, and the three of them were like-minded. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were "as close as sisters."

Gradually, no one dared to look down on Yin Shuang anymore.

This was originally a good thing.

But who knows——

But an accident happened!
