Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 996
Chapter 996: Previous Life (10)
He looked coldly at Shen Miao fighting with Consort Mei in the harem. He looked at her listless eyes and haggard face helplessly.
In the end, when Fu Xiuyi asked him how to deal with the descendants of the Shen family, he said the word ‘elimination’ without hesitation.
What he wanted to eliminate was the feeling that was growing wildly.
However, he did not expect Fu Xiuyi to kill Fu Ming too. Even a tiger would not eat its cubs, but Fu Xiuyi was so cold-blooded that he laid a hand on his children.
Pei Lang remembered Shen Miao’s eyes when she found out about Fu Ming’s death. Her clear eyes were wide open. There were no tears, but she was so miserable that Pei Lang could not bear to look at her.
That fire burned for three days and three nights, and it also aroused the deep regret in Pei Lang’s heart.
He went to look for the abbot of the Putuo Temple and asked him how to make peace with himself.
The abbot was an old monk. He looked at him and shook his head. “You need to untie the knot in your heart yourself.”
Pei Lang asked the eminent monk for guidance. The monk said, “Benefactor, the reason why you often dream of your old friend is because you owe her someone. She haunts you in your dream because she has resentment. She is unwilling to die, so her soul is trapped.”
Pei Lang was terrified and asked if there was a solution.
The monk asked, “Yes, and that is go back to the past and undo the wrong. If what it takes is your life, are you still willing to do it?”
Pei Lang said, “Yes.”
The monk said, “Benefactor, go back.”
“Why do you want me to go back?” Pei Lang was puzzled.
“Benefactor, even if you are willing to sacrifice your life, you still have to wait for that opportunity.”
“That opportunity… What opportunity do you mean?” Pei Lang asked.
“Benefactor, the person you owe has an unfulfilled wish. When her wish is fulfilled, you might be able to sacrifice your life and give her a new chance.” The monk said, “That’s all I can say.”
Pei Lang thanked the monk and returned to the palace.
What was Shen Miao’s unfulfilled wish?
Shen Miao’s life was miserable. Her children were dead, and her family was gone. What she wanted to see was probably her enemy going to hell and justice for the Shen family.
There was a chance to do it all over again, but you had to wait. Would you wait for it?
Pei Lang made a decision to wait.

Winter passed and spring came.
When a dynasty was about to fall, the aura of decline would shroud it.
Ming Qi was no longer the same as before. There was harsh taxation and conscription, and the people were struggling to make a living. The imperial court was in chaos, and the emperor was muddle-headed.
The crown prince, on the other hand, was busy forming alliances all day long, wishing he could ascend the throne as soon as possible.
Ming Qi was a piece of fat meat that everyone wanted to take a bite of.
The Daliang Dynasty attacked and annexed the State of Qin and finally launched an attack on Ming Qi. The victory was easily won and they marched smoothly all the way to the capital of Ming Qi.
After the Daliang Dynasty set up tents outside the capital, the people were scared out of their wits. The doors of the houses were tightly shut, and the atmosphere was filled with the aura of a country being destroyed.
In the big tent, someone sat there, wiping his sword.
“Ming Qi is coming to an end.” The white-robed Young Master walked in with a folding fan, his voice emotionless. “I heard that the palace is cleaning up tonight.’
The women, consorts, palace maids, and even the princesses of the royal family had to be cleaned up. Instead of being humiliated by the enemy, it was better to kill them all first..
