In the previous life, the Crown Prince had personally killed Xue Bitao and her child. In this life, the Crown Prince had destroyed Xue Bitao's dreams.
If the Crown Prince had not granted her a marriage, even if she could not be with Zhou Haiqing, she could still be with other people. Even if her status was not high, even if she could not compare to Zhou Haiqing, she would not be in this situation.
The Crown Prince treated her even worse than in the previous life. After all, in the beginning of the previous life, the Crown Prince had treated her very well and had given her the dignity and respect of the Crown Princess. In this life, the Crown Prince had treated her like a doll to satisfy his lust.
When she thought of her appearance when she woke up this morning, Xue Bitao wanted to use a knife to chop the Crown Prince to death.
Today was the first time she had seen the Empress thank her, but the Crown Prince had a cold and indifferent expression in front of the Empress. The Crown Prince treated her like this in front of the Empress. Even if he pretended, he was not willing and did not give her any dignity.
And the Empress was even more disdainful of her.
Xue Bitao felt very wronged, but on the surface, she could only obediently walk in front of the Empress and kneel down to greet her.
The Empress only had one precious son, the Crown Prince. She naturally doted on those the Crown Prince liked, and hated those the Crown Prince did not like. Originally, when the Empress knew that the Emperor had given the eldest daughter of the Zhenyuan Marquis to the Crown Prince, she still liked him. After all, the Zhenyuan Marquis was the Emperor's confidant. Giving Xue Bitao to the Crown Prince was giving the Zhenyuan Marquis to the Crown Prince, making the Crown Prince's position more stable.
But the problem was that it was a headache.
Not only did the Emperor give Xue Bitao to the Crown Prince, he also gave Jiujiu to Zhou Haiqing.
Zhou Haiqing and the Emperor were monarch and minister in name, but secretly, they were like fire and water. Half a year ago, the Crown Prince had vowed to her that Zhou Haiqing had disloyal intentions.
Although she did not know where the Crown Prince had gotten this information, the Crown Prince was her child, and Zhou Haiqing was just a minister. For the Crown Prince's future, the Empress naturally chose to believe the Crown Prince. She thought about how to deal with Zhou Haiqing, and even secretly helped the Crown Prince to deal with Zhou Haiqing a few times.
As for Zhou Haiqing, it was as if God had helped him escape their assassination attempt.
In fact, a few days before the Emperor bestowed the marriage between Zhou Haiqing and Xue Biyu, the Crown Prince had come to ask her to bestow the marriage between Zhou Haiqing and Xue Biyu. She had wanted to wait until after the Lantern Festival to bestow the marriage, but who knew that Zhou Haiqing would actually ask for the marriage. By the time she wanted to salvage the situation, the Emperor's decree had already arrived.
The Emperor's words were like gold and jade. Even if she was the Empress, she couldn't change the Emperor's mind. The Empress was so upset that she could only choose to wrong the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince could only choose to give up, but he still accepted the marriage with Xue Bitao.
The Empress had thought that the Crown Prince had accepted his fate, but now it seemed that the Crown Prince had only accepted it because Xue Bitao looked similar to Xue Biyu. Looking at the Crown Prince's careless and uncaring appearance and Xue Bitao's miserable appearance, he most likely thought that Xue Bitao was Xue Biyu's substitute.
If the Empress didn't have any tricks up her sleeves, she wouldn't be able to sit firmly in her position. How could she not understand the Crown Prince's thoughts? Therefore.
The Empress lowered her head and glanced at Xue Bitao, whose head was covered in cold sweat after kneeling for a short while. She said, "Get up."
Xue Bitao hurriedly got up, but her stumbling footsteps indicated that she couldn't support herself anymore.
The Empress's eyes flickered and she glanced warningly at the Crown Prince, indicating that he shouldn't go too far. Even if he didn't like Xue Bitao, he couldn't abuse her like this. Otherwise, when Zhenyuan Hou found out, it wouldn't be good.
Of course, it wasn't because she was afraid of Zhenyuan Hou, but because she wanted the power and support in Zhenyuan Hou's hands.
Just now, she had given Xue Bitao the cold shoulder, so the Empress immediately gave her a sweet date. She got up and took Xue Bitao's hand, pulling off a jade bracelet from her wrist and putting it on Xue Bitao's wrist. She said softly, "Bitao, from now on, we're mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If there's anything wrong with my son, just tell me. If he dares to bully you, just tell me. I promise to teach him a lesson for you."
Xue Bitao's eyes flickered and she lowered her eyelids to hide the ridicule in her eyes.
The Empress's words couldn't be more fake.
If the Empress dared to say that she was second in favor of the Crown Prince in the world, no one would dare to say that they were first.
In her previous life, it was because of the Empress's help that the Crown Prince dared to poison her and her child. Not to mention that the Empress had just taken her down a notch, it was a joke that she would help her.
Xue Bitao ridiculed in her heart, but she still put on a fake smile on her face and said to the Empress, "The Crown Prince is very good to me."
"That's good." The Empress was pleased and patted the back of Xue Bitao's hand, saying softly, "If you have any problems in the future, just come to me, understand?"
"Bitao understands."
"It's good that you know." After the Empress finished speaking to Xue Bitao, she looked at the Crown Prince and said, "Crown Prince, you can't bully Bitao in the future, understand?"
A cold light shot out of the Crown Prince's eyes as he looked coldly at Xue Bitao. But no one knew what he was thinking, but the corners of his mouth lifted slightly to reveal a devilish smile. He said meaningfully, "Of course I won't bully her."
The Empress saw that she had said enough and waved her hand, indicating for them to leave.
The Crown Prince and Xue Bitao returned to the Crown Prince Fu. When they entered the room, the Crown Prince's expression immediately changed. He pulled Xue Bitao's arm and threw her onto the bed. Without waiting for Xue Bitao to react, he took off her robes and pants and started to entangle himself with her without even taking off his clothes.
Xue Bitao had already been injured last night. After the Crown Prince did this, her lower body tightened even more.
The Crown Prince moved forward. Xue Bitao's lower body was torn and the blood that seeped out became the best lubricant. The Crown Prince entered even more smoothly under the lubrication of the blood.
After the Crown Prince felt comfortable, he carelessly touched the thing below him to Xue Bitao's face. His lips curled to reveal a devilish smile, his eyes cold and evil: "Crown Princess, don't worry. This one will definitely treat you well."
The Crown Prince's eyes contained undisguised malice, causing Xue Bitao's heart to uncontrollably tremble. She even started to think about how she had offended the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince, whose desire had dissipated, strode back to the study and started to ask his subordinates about the assassination attempt on Zhou Haiqing a few days ago.
The Crown Prince had been reborn.
No, before he was reborn, he was the Emperor, but an unsuccessful Emperor.
He originally thought that he was the Emperor, above all people. As long as he wanted something, there was nothing he couldn't get. So when he saw Xue Biyu, who looked very similar to his Empress but had an otherworldly aura, he deeply liked Xue Biyu and wanted to obtain her.
He originally thought that as the Emperor, as long as he wanted something, there was no way he couldn't get it. So he killed Xue Bitao and wanted Xue Biyu to replace him. Who would have thought that Zhou Haiqing would rebel?
