“After I fell into the water that time, I started to distance myself from the second and third branches of the Shen family. I’m not as friendly to Shen Qing and Shen Yue as before. I even went against Old Madam Shen.” Shen Miao said, “Do you find it strange?”

Xie Jingxing said, “People will wake up when they have enough of something.” In the early years, Shen Miao was fooled because she was young. When it reached a certain point, she might realize the truth and grow up overnight.

Shen Miao shook her head. “It’s not like that. After I was saved from the water,

I was bedridden for a long time. During that period, I had a very long dream.” She looked at the dancing candle light on the table, and a pensive look gradually appeared on her face. “That dream was very long and detailed, as if it really happened. ”

“Can you believe that kind of dream?” Shen Miao smiled. “It’s like a prophecy.” Xie Jingxing gradually frowned and stared at Shen Miao sharply.

“It’s said that there was once a governor who sat under a tree and fell asleep. He dreamed that he was the emperor and lived a long life. When he suddenly woke up, he realized that it had only been a moment. Everything in that dream was just a dream. It’s just that it felt real, so he couldn’t tell dream from reality.”

“My dream was longer and more bitter than the one the governor had in the story. I dreamed of the future,” she said.

“I dreamed that I finally married Prince Ding, and the Shen family was tied to him. I dreamed that in the future, when the imperial court was in chaos, the princes would compete for the throne. In the end, Fu Xiuyi would win. He would ascend the throne, and I would be the empress with a glorious life ahead of me.”

Xie Jingxing raised an eyebrow.

“You probably think that it was a beautiful dream because dreams usually have a perfect ending. I also hope that it was a beautiful dream, but it was the most terrifying nightmare I’ve had in my life.”

“I gave birth to a son and a daughter. They were the most sensible and cute children in the world. Then, the Daliang Dynasty became more and more powerful. Ming Qi’s border was threatened, so Ming Qi borrowed troops from the State of Qin. The State of Qin took me as a hostage and kept me in the State of Qin for five years.”

“I met Huangfu Hao and Ming An,” Shen Miao said.

Xie Jingxing’s expression gradually became serious.

“I don’t like the royal family of the State of Qin. They always humiliate me. They invented a kind of game where they put an apple on my head and miss shots on purpose. Later, I secretly practiced archery. However, no matter how well I practiced, I would never get to make them the target.”

“Five years passed quickly, and I returned to Ming Qi. There was a new consort called Consort Mei in the capital. She gave birth to a son called Fu Sheng.”

“Fu Xiuyi doted on Consort Mei and Fu Sheng. I was neglected. Although I’m the empress, I was mocked by people.”

“Fu Xiuyi started to make a move on the Shen family. Although I wanted to help, I was not allowed to get involved in politics. My brother’s official career was ruined because Jing Chuchu drove him to murder someone. My mother’s condition worsened and she later died of depression because of Chang Zaiqing.

My father became older and older, and his military power was snatched away. He got drunk every day. The second and third branches, on the other hand, rose step by step and became more and more powerful.”

“When Consort Mei and I fight in the harem, neither of us will let the other off. It’s not that I’m greedy for the position of the empress, but if I can’t even keep this position, I won’t be able to keep my children either.”

“In the end, I lost. The Shen family was wiped out. Wanyu died of illness on the way to the the Xiongnu, and Fu Ming committed suicide after being deposed as the crown prince. In the Cold Palace, I was given a rope to hang myself to death. Then, I suddenly opened my eyes wide and found myself lying on the bed. I had a very, very long nightmare..”
