    “Back then, I was the one who gave the drugged tea to Eldest Senior Brother. In order to achieve my goal of furthering our rtionship, I even ruthlessly drugged myself! I didn’t expect you to drink that cup of tea instead! It’s all your fault! You destroyed my life! When I found out about Zixiu, I even wanted to kill you! If it weren’t for you, I’d be the Princess Regent now! I wouldn’t have to watch Eldest Senior Brother and Yu Yunxi love each other while feeling as though my heart was being cut to pieces!” Gao Shixuan said, growing angrier and angrier. Her gaze was like a knife, wanting to cut Liu Xian into pieces.


    Liu Xian’s eyes were red as he looked at Gao Shixuan in disbelief. “So, you were lying about wanting to live a good life with me and Zixiu?”


    “Of course! I only did that to win Eldest Senior Brother’s trust. Otherwise, I’d never acknowledge a good-for-nothing person like you in my life! You’re clearly the Third Prince of Nanyue, but you insist on living like a piece of trash!” Gao Shixuan said as she looked at Liu Xian contemptuously.


    A deranged smile appeared on Gao Shixuan’s face as she continued to say, “I hate Yu Yunxi! I hate how easily she obtained the position of Princess Regent! I worked so hard for so many years, but she didn’t have to do anything! I want to destroy her! Even if I can’t get Eldest Senior Brother, I still want to destroy


    Yu Yunxi!”<div>

    She looked like a lunatic now even in Liu Xian’s eyes. He said in despair, “So you began to plot these things while we were in Xinan, right?”


    “That’s right. Unexpectedly, I failed even after nning for so long. I told the Emperor and Nan Xun about your identity not only because I wanted to sow discord between you and Yu Yunxi, but I also wanted you to join forces with me to deal with her! Apart from that, I also thought that if my n failed, your identity as the Third Prince of Nanyue would be able to save me. Who knew that you were really a good-for-nothing and allowed me to be imprisoned?


    Since that’s the case, what’s the point of keeping you by my side?”


    Gao Shixuan reached out and grabbed Liu Xian’s neck after she finished speaking.


    Liu Xian slowly closed his eyes as he said tiredly, “If killing me can lessen the hatred in your heart, then kill me.”


    ‘I was wrong. I’ve been wrong for so many years. I fell in love with someone I shouldn’t have fallen in love with and even implicated Eldest Senior Brother and Yunxi…’


    After a beat, Liu Xian pleaded, “I want to ask you for something before I die.


    Zixiu is just a child; he’s innocent. After you escape, can you take him with you?


    He cares about you a lot and hopes that you’ll acknowledge him…”


    “Stop dreaming! He has your blood coursing through his veins. I think he’s dirty! I was already very kind to spare his life back then, but you still want me to take him with me now? Impossible,” Gao Shixuan said coldly.


    In the next moment, Gao Shixuan let go of Liu Xian’s neck, revealing a deep strangtion mark around his neck.


    Liu Xian coughed violently, gasping for air. He raised his head and looked at Gao Shixuan carefully, wondering if she could not bear to kill him. However, he was disabused of that notion in the next moment.


    Gao Shixuan said derisively and arrogantly, “Killing you will only dirty my hands. Moreover, I need you to be alive to convey my message to Yu Yunxi. Tell her that I lost to her this time, but she won’t be so lucky next time.” After saying that, Gao Shixuan turned around and left.


    Liu Xian’s eyes dimmed as he watched Gao Shixuan leave without any reluctance. He muttered bitterly, “So this is what she thinks of me…’


    Although there was no prison guard in the immediate area, Liu Xian knew they should be nearby. He still had some strength left. If he called out now, there was still a chance for him to stop Gao Shixuan. However, he did not do that. Although she hated him, she was more important to him than his own life.


    In the Yu Residence, or the new Prince Regent’s Residence.


    When Yu Yunxi woke up, she found that she was alone. She quickly went to Feng Yili and the little bun’s rooms and found that they were empty as well. With this, she hurried to the study. Simrly, it was empty.


    Coincidentally, Yu Yunxi saw Qian Jiao at this moment. She asked, “Where’s the


    Prince Regent and Junjin?”


    A hesitant expression appeared on Qian Jiao’s face when she heard this question. After a long time, she whispered, “Princess Consort, the Prince Regent brought the little prince to the Heavenly Prison.”


    ‘Heavenly Prison? Did he go to see Liu Xian?’


    Yu Yunxi frowned slightly. Nheless, she was not angry. She believed Feng Yili had his reasons for doing things.


    At this moment, Feng Yili and Luo Xiuran also returned with the little bun.


    At this moment, the little bun was asking to be praised. “Father, do you think I performed well today? I managed to persuade Uncle Liu!”


    “Yes, you did very well. Father is very proud of you,” Feng Yili praised in a deep voice as he rubbed the little bun’s head.


    The little bun’s eyes lit up, and he looked very pleased with himself when he heard his father’s words.


    At this moment, Yu Yunxi cleared her throat.


    The two men and the little bun froze immediately and slowly looked up. The little bun gulped before he called out softly, looking very nervous,


    “M-mother, you’re awake?”


    Yu Yunxi crossed her arms and asked lightly, “Why aren’t you saying anything? I want to hear about what happened in the prison.”


    Luo Xiuran coughed and said, stuttering, “Y-Yunxi, we, we… We went to the prison to… to…’


    Luo Xiuran racked his brain to think of a way to exin the matter in a way that would not affect their rtionship. After all, Feng Yili secretly brought Yu Junjin away when she was sleeping.


    Just as Luo Xiuran was still thinking of an excuse, Feng Yili said in a deep voice, “I brought Junjin to persuade Liu Xian. After all, Liu Xian has a one-track mind. Seeing Junjin and Gao Zixiu are about the same age, I thought that Junjin might be able to make him see reason…’


    ‘So that’s it…’


    Yu Yunxi nodded. In fact, even without Feng Yili’s exnation, she could guess a thing or two.


    The little bun said nervously, “Mother, don’t be angry…”


    When Yu Yunxi heard this, sheughed helplessly. “I’m not angry. I was just worried that it’d be dangerous for you. Alright, tell me. Did you sessfully persuade Liu Xian?”


    “Of course!”


    The little bun’s eyes lit up with excitement as he recounted everything animatedly to Yu Yunxi.


    Yu Yunxi frowned slightly and said worriedly, “It’s not easy for Liu Xian to figure things out, but I’m worried that Gao Shixuan won’t let things go so easily.”


    “Indeed. There’s no way she’ll let things go,” Feng Yili said icily.


    “Yili, why are you so sure?” Luo Xiuran asked curiously.


    Feng Yili nced at Luo Xiuran and asked, “Why don’t you take a look? Is the thing you used to pry the lock still with you?”


    Luo Xiuran touched his waist before he eximed, “Oh, no! It’s gone!”</font>
