730 Identity Exposed? Da Bao’s Return (2)
The golden-masked death warrior screamed and flew to the horizon.
Yu Shaoqing looked at his fist in disbelief. He actually sent a golden-masked death warrior flying with a punch. He had become very powerful!
On the other side, Yu Wan also woke up. She rubbed her dizzy head and propped herself up on the ground. Other than feeling a little sore, she was fine.
The internal energy was too terrifying. Helian Sheng and Dong Xian’er had fallen somewhere. However, she was fine even when she did not know martial arts. So they should be fine. She wondered if her uncle, Grandma, and mother were also safe and sound.
Yu Wan planned to look for them. She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly heard a low cough. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Nangong Yan, who was pressed under a huge rock.
Nangong Yan woke up from the pain. When she woke up, she found herself lying on the ground. Half of her body was pressed down, and she had long lost the feelings below her waist. The injuries on her upper body were so painful that she wished she could lose consciousness too.
She tried to use the strength of her arms to climb out, but she suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. Suddenly, the light above her dimmed. She raised her head with difficulty and looked at the peerless woman.
“Ha…” She laughed at herself.
Yu Wan smiled faintly. “As expected of the Little Princess. You can still laugh at a time like this.”
Nangong Yan said in a hoarse voice, “If I don’t laugh, then should I cry in front of you?”
Yu Wan spread her hands and said, “Do you really think I care if you cry or laugh?”
Nangong Yan’s expression froze.
Yu Wan squatted down on one knee and looked at her without blinking. “You didn’t expect yourself to end up like this, right? You didn’t kill anyone you wanted to kill. Instead, you won’t be able to live. You’re the Princess of Nanzhao, and you clearly have a bright future. How did you get to this point step by step?”
That’s right, how did she end up like this? When did everything start to go wrong?
Was it from the moment she stopped the Eldest Princess from reuniting with the Emperor, or was it from the moment she forced the holy artifact to recognize her as its master? Or was it from the moment she sold the Eldest Princess in exchange for the holy artifact, or even earlier, when she snatched Shangguan Yan’s husband away?
No, maybe earlier than all that.
Her birth was a mistake.
Under the guise of Yuwen Zhao’s flesh and blood, she forcefully snatched away the fate of the Eldest Princess. She was the one who should be abandoned. Her mother had stolen this life from Consort Yun and the Eldest Princess.
Nangong Yan laughed louder and louder until her body was trembling. Unlike the mocking smile at the beginning, she was now exuding despair.
Yu Wan glanced at her and shook her head regretfully. “You’re so pitiful. Why are you a jinx too?”
There were some things that Yu Wan did not personally hear the Empress admit, but not listening did not mean that she did not know how to guess. The Little Princess should indeed be the Emperor’s flesh and blood. Unfortunately, in order to control Yuwen Zhao, the Empress lied and said that she was his. Then, in order to protect this child, what would Yuwen Zhao do? He could not let the Emperor have the slightest doubt about her, nor could he let her lose to the Eldest Princess from birth.
There was no better way than to give her the identity of the Heavenly Blessing Princess. What she carried was not only the Emperor’s expectations, but also the rise and fall of the royal family and the destiny of Nanzhao.
With that, the Emperor would no longer suspect her.
As for the matter about fortune and misfortune, Yu Wan had also asked Grandma. Grandma was more willing to believe that it was true, but it was hard to say if Yuwen Zhao had changed her fate.
Yu Wan sighed and said, “Even if Nanzhao sent my mother away, my mother is still living better than you. There’s a saying in the Central Plains that says to put one’s life on the line to survive. Actually, have you ever thought that if you were the one who was sent away back then, you might have returned in glory now?”
Nangong Yan’s heart trembled.
That’s right. If she was the one who was sent away, then she would also be the one who had a fortuitous encounter in the Ghost Clan. She would not meet the Prince Consort and would not cause irreparable mistakes. She might meet Yu Shaoqing like the Eldest Princess. Then, she would be the daughter-in-law of the Helian family now. Then, why would she have to worry about not being able to sit on the throne?!
Yu Wen patted her shoulder. “Hey, I was just saying it casually. Did you take it seriously? Do you think with my mother’s personality, she would sell you in exchange for a holy artifact? Would you have the guts to escape from the Ghost Clan? Even if you met my father, would he fancy you?”
“You!” Only then did Nangong Yan realize that she had been tricked by Yu Wan. Yu Wan was not feeling sorry for herself. She was just adding to her regret and pain. As expected of Yan Jiuchao’s woman. Her two-faced heart was exactly the same as Yan Jiuchao’s!
