She spoke of this shocking dream indifferently with a smile on her face. This smile was a little unfathomable, as if it contained endless bitterness. However, the bitterness was too much and deep to be uttered, so she simply replaced it with a smile.
Xie Jingxing did not speak.
Shen Miao said, “Do you believe in this dream?”
Xie Jingxing asked back, “Do you believe it?”
Shen Miao smiled. “If I didn’t believe it, I’m afraid what stood in front of you today would be a tomb.”
“After I woke up, I was very afraid that everything that happened in my dream would happen again. I tried to find some clues to prove that it was just a nightmare. However, I later realized that it was not just a dream. The things in the dream were happening one by one.”
“I reminded Su Minglang because not long after that, the Su family will be wiped out because they aroused the emperor’s fear. Everyone in the Su family will be executed, and only you will go and collect the corpses for the father and son. After the Su family, it will be the Shen family’s turn. I reminded the Su family just to protect myself, but I didn’t expect you to notice.”
At that time, after Su Minglang told Xie Jingxing about Shen Miao’s reminder, Xie Jingxing was suspicious of her. The two of them had interacted many times, but they couldn’t figure out what was on each other’s mind.
“Then in that dream of yours, what was the ending for me?” Xie Jingxing stared at her and asked.
Shen Miao said, “You are doing well.”
“The Xie family gradually declined. Later, the Marquis of Lin’an died in battle. You went to war on behalf of your father. It was said that you died tragically in the battle, but many years later, you returned to Ming Qi as Prince Rui.” Shen Miao smiled. “But with troops to overthrow the emperor.”
Xie Jingxing frowned. “That’s it?”
“That’s right.” Shen Miao nodded.
“I see.” He raised his eyebrows. “I thought that in that dream of yours, you and I would be also involved.”
“Do you really just treat it as a dream? Or do you think I’m drunk and spouting nonsense?” Shen Miao’s eyes darkened slightly as she continued, “But this is also good. I’d rather it was just a dream.”
“There are some things that you won’t believe, but I did dream of Jing Chuchu,
Chang Zaiaing. and the others. Because of the dream. I was alreadv Dreoared to deal with them before they came. In fact, now that I think about it, many things can only be done thanks to that dream.”
Xie Jingxing looked at her and smiled, but his smile was gentle and comforting. “You did very well.”
“The past is in the past. I tried my best to avoid the ending in my dream, but there’s one thing that can’t be avoided, the death of the two children.”
Xie Jingxing paused for a moment and said, “We’ll have children too.”
Shen Miao took a deep breath and looked at him. “You have to listen carefully to what I’m about to say.”
“In that dream, Consort Mei, the mother of the new crown prince, the woman who almost controlled the entire imperial court, was called Li Mei. She was the daughter of an official Fu Xiuyi met during the Eastern Campaign. She was gentle, charming, and kind. Now, I met her again. Do you find it strange that I was cold to you when you woke up from being poisoned? Because at that time, I was very flustered. I saw Li Mei again.”
“Her name is Ye Mei now.”
“Do you understand what I’m saying?” she asked.
Xie Jingxing did not speak for a long time.
After an unknown period of time, he looked at Shen Miao. “So she is the enemy in your dream.”
“I hated her to the core, but I couldn’t kill her with my own hands. When we met again in this life, she became the daughter of the Ye family. Xie Jingxing, I can forget about my hatred, but there’s one thing I have to say. Ye Mei is definitely not a kind person. For the sake of power, she will do anything. Since you owe her a favor, she will definitely make you a knife to her use. You have to be careful.”
Xie Jingxing picked up the wine bowl again and finished it in one gulp.
Although he was smiling, his eyes were cold as he said, “Ye Mei, right? Fu
Xiuyi’s taste in women is as awful as ever. I’m different from him.”
“It doesn’t matter if your dream is real or not.” Xie Jingxing said, “The hatred in your dream is also hatred. The fact he betrayed you is unforgivable. Leave your hatred to me. I’ll avenge you.” He interrupted Shen Miao. “Don’t say that you want to kill your enemy with your own hands. You’re my woman. Your hatred is my hatred. In this world, the two of us will have countless enemies. One day, you can avenge me, and then we’ll be even.”
Shen Miao frowned. “Do you have an enemy? Who is it?”
Xie Jingxing looked at her for a while and suddenly reached out to rub her head. “You are so cute.”
“How dare you!” Shen Miao said.
When she was drunk, she habitually brought out the aura of an empress. Xie
Jing paused, and Shen Miao was stunned for a moment. He stared at Shen
Miao. “Do you still want to be an empress?”
“I don’t want to have that dream a second time,” Shen Miao said. “I don’t want to be that kind of empress a second time either,” she said..
