Chapter 448: Chapter 321: You Also Have This Day (Request for Monthly Ticket)_2
"Even though we have wealth, because we’re always on the road, we can never carry much with us! It’s common to run out of money and have no support. When there’s no money, even slop water can become a necessity for survival!
"You have never experienced any of this! You are a Heavenly Pride Girl! You even look down on the only golden noble of our time, Princess Yongping! The Empress personally named you, hoping your birth would symbolize peace for the nation!
"You have a life I never even dared to dream of!
"But am I destined to be a stray dog?
"Certainly not!
"I was also noble by birth, I am of the royal family of Dayue! My ancestors once had a half-chance to rule Dayue!
"But just because he lost, I don’t even have a home!
"What right do you have to ridicule me? On what grounds do you mock me? Everything you have is merely because you belong to a powerful family, while what I have achieved until now is due to my own capabilities!"
He took a deep breath, his bloodshot eyes filled with fiery determination, "You’re right, I was only one step away from success!
"If you hadn’t come back alive, if you hadn’t solved this case, I would have used the leverage against Prince Rong to stand by the Crown Prince, becoming his trusted minister!
"If the secret of the Crown Prince fratricide was not exposed, he would ascend the throne smoothly. With his narrow-mindedness, once enthroned, he would soon turn his blade towards you founding ministers!
"Once he eliminates your families, what does Great Zhou have to rely on? And with those few years, I would have had enough time to secretly build my own power, whether I stay in Great Zhou to control the court, wielding power, or simply return to Dayue to seize the throne for myself, ultimately, I could use Great Zhou’s strength to reclaim Dayue and become the emperor of the world; it would all be up to my own desires!"
His passionate voice echoed in the courtyard, and those inside and outside the walls turned ashen, their bodies tense!
Fu Zhen looked at him with an icy expression, and when he finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and said, "What does your suffering have to do with me? I was born into a good family; my ancestors did good deeds and earned virtues, benefiting future generations. That is the blessing my family has given me! If you were not born into a good family, that is your destiny."
Xu Yin clenched his teeth, almost crushing them.
Fu Zhen said, "If your family hadn’t meddled in that power struggle years ago, hadn’t developed an excessive desire for power, you wouldn’t have to endure such hardship.
"All the suffering you endured, wasn’t it brought upon you by your ancestors? If your grandfather and father had lived their lives honestly, who would have forced you?
"You want to ascend, yet you are unwilling to bear the consequences. If you feel it’s unfair, you can go to Dayue and dig up your family’s ancestral graves. Complaining to me here is indeed ridiculous."
Xu Yin ground his teeth, but before he could speak, Fu Zhen continued:
"Did you expect me to feel guilty, uneasy, feeling I was undeserving of what I have? Before meeting me, whatever you went through has nothing to do with me. Why should I be troubled by the suffering you endured?
"I am perfectly at ease with everything I enjoy.
"I’m quite kind to everyone around me. You’ve been saved by me, and you’re not the only one. If it hadn’t been you at that time, or had you not had this good appearance, I still would have saved you.
"As for why I treated you particularly well afterward, one reason is you were indeed quite adept at aligning with my wishes, and another, you indeed had moments that touched me. Undeniably, you are a person with ambitions. You have your strengths.
"But matters of romantic entanglements are not something everyone relies on. For example, for you, it’s a tool for advancement, while for me, it’s just an enhancement.
"You keep mentioning wanting to marry me in the future, and I don’t think that would necessarily be impossible.
"But for you to think just now that the sword didn’t pierce you because of lingering feelings, what a big joke is that?"
Upon saying this, Fu Zhen laughed again.
"You still dream of escaping? As the Soft Muscle Powder takes full effect, you will become increasingly powerless, unable to ingest even soup. You will remain utterly conscious, watching yourself die.
"Even if I don’t burn you alive, I will ensure you die as you deserve."
This laughter was exceedingly light, but it was like a razor-sharp claw, shattering the last bit of self-confidence within Xu Yin into smoke and clouds!
She unraveled his core with clear logic, mentioning that great fire without hurriedness or impatience!
She said everything she had was a mere enhancement; it turns out he, Xu Yin, was neither indispensable nor irreplaceable to her!
