Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 597

Chapter 597 Jing Yan’s Previous Life

Compared to Yun Xiao and Rong Jin’s suspicions, Zhou Jingyan was currently eating dinner in the temporary palace in Cangzhou City. He waved his hand and ordered all the palace servants to go down. However, after all the palace servants had left, Zhou Jingyan’s gentle face was filled with deep thought.

Zhou Jingyan frowned. His originally handsome face was now very thin because of the time he had been lying on the bed. He rubbed his eyebrows impatiently, but his eyebrows looked even more embarrassed.

Right at this moment, a palace servant carefully knocked on the door. Then, he walked in and said with a perturbed expression, “Your Majesty, the Empress sent someone to invite you over.”

Ever since Zhou Jingyan disappeared this time and returned, his expression had become much more embarrassed. His temper was even more changeable. Few people could guess what Zhou Jingyan was thinking.

Therefore, the palace servants serving beside Zhou Jingyan became even more cautious.

After the palace servant’s voice fell, Zhou Jingyan immediately raised his head. His sharp eyes flashed with a strange look, and he looked at the palace servant with an undetectable killing intent.

Zhou Jingyan glanced at the palace servant and felt that his legs were a little weak. He immediately knelt down and his entire body couldn’t help but tremble.

Zhou Jingyan snorted coldly and said sternly, “Scram!”

The palace servants didn’t dare to hesitate. They didn’t dare to ask if Zhou Jingyan was going to see the Empress.

After the palace servants left, Zhou Jingyan’s sharp eyebrows landed on the table in front of him. He waved his hand and swept all the ink, paper, inkstone, and memorials on the table to the ground. In just a moment, he heard crackling sounds, but none of the palace servants dared to step in.

Zhou Jingyan threw his entire body into the chair, his embarrassed expression becoming a little more exhausted.

He reached out and pinched the space between his eyebrows. His eyes were tightly closed, leaving behind a long shadow beneath his eyelids.

Sometimes, he simply couldn’t understand why Yun Xiao hated him so much every time, but he didn’t expect that he would actually get the answer when he fell off the cliff this time.

However, that answer was simply too ironic!

He had always thought that even if he was an unfavored prince, his status was still incomparably noble. A woman like Yun Xiao had an extremely unbearable background. If he wanted to marry her as his imperial concubine, she would probably cry with gratitude. However, in the end, Yun Xiao disdained him. Every time she saw him, she would even carry a trace of hatred.

He also thought that his appearance of falling in love with Yun Xiao at first sight was enough to capture the hearts of any woman. What was the result? Yun Xiao was still disdainful.

He had always thought that Yun Xiao’s disdain was merely a means of trying to capture him, but this time, after understanding what had happened, he finally understood Yun Xiao’s peculiarity.

He compared the appearance of Yun Xiao in his mind and finally realized that Yun Xiao had dreamed of his previous life just like him.

However, when Yun Xiao dreamed of her previous life, it was only a little earlier than her. It was precisely because she dreamed of her previous life that Yun Xiao hated her, right?

After all, what he had done to Yun Xiao in his previous life was indeed enough to make her wish she had died earlier.

However, Zhou Jingyan’s heart was still a little sour. In his dreams, Yun Xiao’s heart was all on him, and she was thinking of him. She also loved him to the extreme. She did not believe that after that life, Yun Xiao’s thoughts towards her would all disappear without a trace.

He only needed to treat Yun Xiao better. She would definitely return to his embrace, right? After all, in her previous life, she was willing to do anything for him. She was willing to suffer any grievances, wasn’t she?

Thinking of this, Zhou Jingyan’s sharp eyes flashed with a thick smile.

It was precisely because of this that he had someone send a letter to Yun Xiao, wanting to interview her.

In his dreams, like in this life, he had obtained the throne as he wished. However, he didn’t know if the heavens had killed his child, Nuo Nuo, in order to punish him. That was why he had allowed him to die without any children.

Thinking of Nuo Nuo, Zhou Jingyan unconsciously remembered another name, Tong Tong. Yun Xiao and Rong Jin’s children were called Nuo Nuo and Tong Tong. If there was no connection between them, he would not believe it.

The names were all the same. Was Yun Xiao also telling herself that she actually had him in her heart?

Thinking of this, the smile in Zhou Jingyan’s eyes grew stronger and stronger. He believed that as long as Rong Jin died, she would obediently return to him and have children for him!

Thinking of Rong Jin, Zhou Jingyan’s eyebrows were filled with killing intent. He clearly remembered that in the end, Rong Jin had seized his throne and killed him!

There was also Xiao Yuqi, who was extremely disgusting to him. She and Rong Jin were the only couple. They were the husband and wife, and Yun Xiao was his!

He did not forget that Xiao Yuqi, whom he hated in his dreams, ran back to the Eastern Jin Dynasty from Country of Xiyue to find him to cooperate with. Although Xiao Yuqi was by his side, his heart was on Rong Jin. In the end, when Rong Jin killed his way to the capital, he actually left the capital alone! And he died miserably at Rong Jin’s hands!

In this life, seeing Xiao Yuqi betraying him, especially when she returned to the capital after falling off the cliff, and knowing what Xiao Yuqi had done after falling off the cliff, she wished she could strangle her to death!

That woman was really bold, she actually dared to plot against him! In fact, when he was in trouble, there was news of a fake pregnancy. Furthermore, she didn’t send anyone out to find him. If it wasn’t for his own hidden guard, he probably wouldn’t have returned to the Eastern Jin Dynasty so quickly.

He had wanted to kill Xiao Yuqi more than once, but when he thought of the gunpowder in Xiao Yuqi’s hand, he could only calm down the anger in his heart and make Xiao Yuqi feel guilty. However, since Xiao Yuqi had committed such a serious crime, new enmity and old hatred, he had only locked her up. It was already a great grace to Xiao Yuqi.

A strong killing intent flashed through Zhou Jingyan’s eyes. In his previous life, he had fought with Rong Jin so many times that they fought each other on the battlefield. In the end, Rong Jin was conferred the title of God of Slaughter, but he could only retreat. He would lose so miserably. Xiao Yuqi must have contributed to this!

However, the two of them had fought so many times, and they had a full understanding of each other’s methods. If they continued to fight one city after another, it would not be good for them and the people.

In addition, he knew that Yun Xiao Xin Shan did not want to see so many soldiers die or be injured, so he thought of using a war to determine victory and defeat!

He would not allow himself to lose this war. No matter what method he used, he would win!

This time, it was also the only time that he could refresh his previous life’s defeat. He had lost too many times in his previous life and had always been a defeated general in Rong Jin’s hands. However, this time, he had to win this war in front of Yun Xiao, so that Yun Xiao could clearly see who would become her true reliance in this lifetime.

It was precisely because he wanted to win that he banned Xiao Yuqi from betraying him again. However, Zhou Jingyan coveted the gunpowder in Xiao Yuqi’s hand. If he had Xiao Yuqi’s gunpowder, his chances of winning this time would be even higher!

Thinking of this, Zhou Jingyan stood up from behind the desk with an embarrassed expression. He walked out with his head held high and opened the door. He saw the palace people on both sides looking nervous. Seeing him come out, he immediately knelt respectfully and said, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Zhou Jingyan did not look at the two palace servants kneeling on the ground, but said coldly, “Clean up the house for me!”

The palace servants didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately agreed.

Zhou Jingyan snorted coldly and continued walking forward. He raised his head to look at the pitch-black night. The corner of his mouth curled into a faint and strange smile. Soon, this war would end, and he would become the final victor!

And the one who could accompany him to enjoy this myriad of miles of rivers and mountains could only be Yun Xiao! He believed that Yun Xiao would definitely forgive him! Moreover, this life was different from the previous one. The people of Yun Clan were still alive. Even if it was for Yun Xiao’s sake, Yun Xiao would willingly come to her side.

Zhou Jingyan strode forward. After 25 minutes, he stopped at the entrance of a temporary palace. When the palace guards saw Zhou Jingyan, they immediately knelt respectfully in Zhou Jingyan’s direction. “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Zhou Jingyan’s cold eyes stared at the tightly shut door before he entered the palace.

Zhou Jingyan quickly walked to the door of the palace. He pushed open the door and walked in. The purpose of entering was not Xiao Yuqi’s stern face, but a face that was neither human nor ghost.

At this moment, the person standing in the middle of the room, The human skin on her face was always open, Not only that, her skin and human skin were all stretched out. If it was just human skin, it wasn’t scary. What was scary was the blood stains on the wounds on the human skin. That human skin couldn’t be called human skin anymore. Everything that touched her eyes was human skin piece by piece.

When that person saw him enter, he opened his mouth and smiled at Zhou Jingyan, his eyes still filled with joy.

However, seeing this face, Zhou Jingyan’s expression turned ugly for a moment. A burst of acid surged in his stomach, and he could vomit at any time.

Zhou Jingyan suppressed the disgust in his heart and said sternly to An Hua, “Get out!”

However, An Hua didn’t want to go out. Instead, she smiled at Zhou Jingyan again. With this smile, the wounds on her face and body were criss-crossing, and her skin was flipping outwards. She didn’t notice her own skin and rushed towards Zhou Jingyan’s figure very quickly. However, there was a malicious feeling in her black eyes. She ran and said, “You’re finally here …”
