The Rebirth of the Empress

Bengong Is Back

One could see a middle-aged man walking over. He did not sit down with the officials and the young man and sat in a distant place in a special seat for distinguished guests. This man was around forty years old, looking dark and hideous, wearing a robe of pine rosin color. Her clothes were luxurious but unfortunately she only had legs.

This was the Emperor's brother, Prince Yu of the First Rank.

Prince Yu was the Emperor's brother with the same mother. When he was young, he saved the Emperor's life from the hands of the assassins and thus his left leg was injured and had to be amputated, becoming disfigured. From that incident onwards, Prince Yu's temperament changed and he became brutal, vicious, and had a perverted personality. He had a myriad of concubines, the Imperial family knew everything even though no one outside knew anything. This Prince Yu had a dirty hobby of playing with many women until they died.

Yu Wangfei had died seven years ago which in itself was strong. But since the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were protecting Prince Yu, the Yu Wangfei family could only swallow their grievances. Recently there was a sudden news from Prince Yu's residence that Prince Yu had the intention to bring a Wangfei in.

For a period of time, everyone in the capital Ding speculated endlessly. Prince Yu's status was very high and he also had the support of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, so his Wangfei should have an equal status. The noble and high-ranking families who loved their daughters so much naturally would not let their daughters enter the wolf den. Those who see their daughters as bargaining tools will then be eager to exchange their daughters for prestige and wealth, even at the cost of their lives.

Looking at the Yu Wangfei family before, even though they had lost a princess, the Emperor took care of them and didn't they become much more prosperous?

Shen Miao's gaze passed Prince Yu and landed on Ren Wan Yun in the banquet area reserved for women.

Sure enough, he saw Ren Wan Yun's face brighten up and said to Yi Furen, "His Majesty really treats Prince Yu very well."

They were all people fighting in the courtyard so Yi Furen immediately thought of what Ren Wan Yun meant. Although he found that Ren Wan Yun's actions were despicable, but his Master and Shen Gui were in the same faction so naturally he had to take sides and help Ren Wan Yun. He smiled and said, “That's right. Although he is much older but is someone who will love others.”

Chen Rou Qiu lowered his head to the side and slowly ate some snacks but the smile on his lips was a bit strange. Liking others? Believing that no one would want to see their own daughter marry a crippled widower even if she doted on them or possessed great power, it was tantamount to pushing her daughter into a fire pit. As he thought about it, he turned his head and looked at Shen Miao.

Shen Miao held the chess piece patiently and placed it on the chessboard as if she had not noticed anyone. Suddenly Chen Rou Qiu felt bottomless in his heart. After Shen Miao woke up after falling into the water, she was like someone else like Shen Xin's blood that was awakened within her. The entire Shen Xin family had a fierce and ruthless personality and if Shen Miao knew about Ren Wan Yun's plan, would she obediently accept it?

As he thought, he saw Shen Miao seem to be aware of his gaze so he raised his head to look at it. The pair of eyes were filled with a chill that froze Chen Rou Qiu's heart even though it was only the tenth lunar month.

Shen Miao lowered his head and looked at the chess in his hands.

In his last life, he humiliated himself during the Chrysanthemum banquet but Ren Wan Yun mentioned about Prince Yu's marriage to Old Shen Taitai after returning to the residence. Ren Wan Yun said, “Not saying that the actions of Little Five today did not have a good aspect at all and moreover he had lost the reputation of the Shen family. Which noble family would want to marry a young lady like Little Five? Now that there was a good marriage from Prince Yu, if Little Five got married, she would become Wangfei and get help from His Majesty and Empress Dowager and could be considered lucky. Although his legs are not good and his age is somewhat more mature, but our Little Five does not have any extraordinary abilities and hence would not be a disadvantage to the Little Five. ”

They made it sound tall but it was actually very cruel. Then when he spent a lot of money to bribe the servant Rong Jing Tang, he could tell this remark. Grand Madam Shen hated the First Household in her heart because Shen Xin was born from Yuanpei. When Old Master Shen was still alive, he liked Shen Xin very much which made Grand Madam Shen, his second wife, jealous. It was very difficult for him to endure until Old Master Shen's death but Shen Xin's military strength was untouchable. Since Shen Xin was untouchable, Shen Miao was targeted and to target a woman, there was nothing more painful than letting her get married in trouble.

At that moment Grand Madam Shen was furious at the turn of events. Although Fu XiuYi was angry in his heart, he did not treat her badly on the surface. Perhaps he saw the value of the Shen family's army. Although he did not treat Shen Miao warmly, he did not argue against it. After Shen Xin returned at the end of the year, what greeted her was the news of her daughter in the capital jumping into someone else's residence. He was shocked and furious but Shen Miao did not hesitate to protest with a hunger strike, so Shen Xin ran out of ideas and could only use all her military achievements to finally exchange for Ding Wangfei's title for him.

But no one thought that it was the beginning of a real nightmare.

Shen Miao closed her eyes. The mistakes made in his previous life have all been traced back to today and today are destined to be a turning point in his life. The people who owe him now have to start paying their debts!

"Hey. Why play by yourself?” Suddenly a voice sounded in his ear. It was unknown when Feng An Ning walked and despite the awkward expression, she sat opposite him, “Why not play around with me? Do you know how to play chess?”

Feng An Ning looked at the chessboard. He only intended to talk casually but when he looked down, his interest was triggered. After carefully searching for a while, he was unable to see anything from her and asked, “What kind of tactic is this? I've never seen it before.”

"It's not a chess game." Shen Miao smiled, "It's at war."

“Now can not be seen.” Shen Miao said clearly, "Only when the pawn is swallowed can it be seen for this type of chess." Just like the next one is woven firmly and tightly so that nothing can escape.

Feng An Ning shuddered, “What are you talking about? Weird and horrible.” He looked to the male side of the banquet and suddenly his eyes brightened and gave Shen Miao an encouraging look, “See there. His Highness Prince Ding has arrived.”

At the banquet section for men, Prince Ding, Fu Xiu Yi, wore a loose golden and blue robe with dark green books and looked beautiful. He was born handsome and coupled with his solemn attitude but his friendly actions, he did not have the temperament of a proud prince. Along the way, he was able to draw a surprise shout from the female side of the banquet.

Shen Miao lowered her head as her fingers dug deep into her palms as she clenched her fists.

Ten years of heartfelt mentoring and support was only exchanged for a long piece of white silk and the extermination of an entire clan. And even his sons and daughters lost their lives.

The better this person looked on the outside, the more cruel his heart became. Just how he looked on the outside was how cruel he was on the inside.

In his last life, this man gave him a whole corpse. In this life, he wanted this person to die without a whole corpse!

Fu XiuYi, Bengong has returned!
