Chapter 111

"What on earth is going on?"

"Who are you? Who exactly are you!"

"Ah ah ah!"

Li Xueyan screamed frantically, her eyes filled with tears.

Ever since she became a marriage-alliance Princess, it seemed everything in this world had changed.

Used!

Deceived!

Living in this world like a chess piece!

I hate it!

Li Xueyan bit her red lips, her face pale.

She no longer believed what was true and what was false in this world.

Qin Mu looked at the frantically venting Li Xueyan, waiting quietly.

I don't know how much time passed.

The bedchamber finally became calm again.

Outside the window, the wind whistled.

The Tibetan night was bone-chillingly cold.

But inside this Princess's bedchamber, it was as warm as spring.

"That's right, I deceived you."

"I am Great Tang's number one traitor, Qin Mu; I am the only King of this land; I am the Tibetan envoy who fought with you on the Changancheng tower; and I am also the man Princess Wencheng married."

"I was the one who disguised myself, mixed into the delegation, and entered Changancheng."

Qin Mu truthfully confessed everything to Li Xueyan.

Li Xueyan listened, tears rolling down her cheeks continuously.

Disguised?

Yes!

No wonder!

He is Great Tang's number one traitor!

If he hadn't disguised himself, let alone entering Changancheng, he would surely have been recognized if he appeared anywhere in Great Tang.

"You! Who exactly are you?"

"Why is the Tibetan monarch you? What crime did you commit in Great Tang?"

"What kind of person are you?"

Li Xueyan had a bellyful of questions she wanted to ask Qin Mu.

"Who I am, you will soon know."

Qin Mu did not answer her questions, simply turning slowly and leaving the empty bedchamber. He knew.

This woman needed time to accept all this!

And in another bedchamber of the Budalagong.

"Wow! Mother, this place is so beautiful!"

In the empty palace, Changle was like a curious little cat, looking here and there.

Truly a child's nature!

"Alright, you girl, you haven't stopped since entering the Budalagong."

Empress Zhangsun looked at Changle with doting eyes, shaking her head helplessly.

"Pfft!"

"I'm not afraid!"

"That big brother surely won't do anything to us."

Changle sat on a soft wool rug, leaning against the nearby stove, feeling the warmth.

"Hmm?"

"Why do you say that?"

Empress Zhangsun became interested, sitting next to her daughter and asking curiously.

"Mother, I just feel that big brother doesn't seem like a bad person, and..."

"And what?"

"And there is a special, intimate feeling about him."

Changle touched her red lips with her fingertips, recalling the scenes of her time with Qin Mu.

There wasn't a single thing that made her uncomfortable.

Full of a sense of security!

Even though Qin Mu was always stern-faced, Changle just wasn't afraid.

"Do you have that feeling too?"

Empress Zhangsun raised her eyebrows.

It seems.

I'm not the only one who has this feeling.

"Mother, do you have it too?"

Changle looked at Empress Zhangsun in surprise.

I thought this was just a tacit understanding between me and big brother!

Hmph!

I didn't expect Mother to have it too!

"Yes, I had that feeling the first time I saw him."

"Although he was disguised, that feeling remained strong."

Empress Zhangsun nodded thoughtfully.

Back then.

When Qin Mu kidnapped her, she didn't know Qin Mu's identity.

But during the escape along the way.

Empress Zhangsun inadvertently learned that Qin Mu's true identity was Great Tang's number one traitor.

Beyond the shock.

Empress Zhangsun also tried her best to mediate the conflict between Qin Mu and Great Tang.

But after contact.

Empress Zhangsun discovered that everything she did was futile.

Qin Mu seemed to have an incomprehensible hatred for Great Tang, for the Emperor, and especially for the Zhangsun family.

Is it because of the Top Graduate position?

That should be it!

After so many years of studying in the cold window, so much hard work and effort, only to have it all snatched away by a single sentence.

No one could accept that.

Especially with a personality like Qin Mu's, how could he endure such humiliation?

"Sigh!"

"In the end, we are the ones who failed him."

Empress Zhangsun sighed.

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

The innocent and romantic Changle blinked her dark, bright eyes, tilting her head and asking. ===== CHAPTER 113 =====
