    Empress Xiao’s life was very legendary. From the prime minister’s daughter to the empress, she experienced the estrangement of husband and wife, the grievance of being framed, and the pain of being separated from her son. However, in the end, she seeded in cleaning up the harem. She was the kind of person who became stronger in adversity and rose up. If she had any regrets, the first was that Xie Chi couldn’tpletely recover from the poison, and the second was that she could not see Xie Jingxing again.


    The two brothers, Xie Chi and Xie Jingxing, were more simr to Empress Xiao. Back in Long Ye, Empress Xiao was a beauty pursued by everyone, and it was not an exaggeration to say that she was peerless. Not only did Xie Chi and Xie Jingxing inherit Empress Xiao’s appearance, but they also inherited her way of doing things. Because Xie Chi was on the throne, he resembled his father in one way or another. For example, when he was ying the power game, he would rely on marriage alliances to gain an upper hand. Xie Jingxing was different. He was far away in Ming Qi and was the enemy of the royal family of Ming Qi. He did not resemble his father at all. He had indeed met Empress Xiao’s expectations of him back then. Although he was not a good person, he was definitely not a despicable person either.


    Shen Miao did not expect Xie Jingxing’s background to be soplicated and strange. She sighed and couldn’t help but admire Empress Xiao. Empress Xiao was so simr to her in her previous life. The only difference was that Empress Xiao stood until the end. However, Shen Miao knew that she could notpare to Empress Xiao, who could endure the pain of sending her child far away.


    !!


    Seeing herplicated gaze, Xie Jingxing smiled indifferently and said, “Don’t pity me. I’ve never seen her, so I naturally have no attachment to her.”


    He was a young man who grew up alone in the storm. He was born against the will of his biological father and had never seen his biological mother. On the contrary, he was more broad-minded than ordinary people. In his eyes, nothing was insurmountable.


    However, he was indifferent to people because he did not have high hopes for them from the beginning.


    Shen Miao was silent for a moment before saying, “I’ll apany you to the end.”


    Xie Jingxing’s eyes flickered. Then, he smiled and said, “If you really pity me, bear me a child.”


    His evil smile instantly wiped away the sad atmosphere. Shen Miao red at him and suddenly thought of something. She said, “The emperor’s illness…” She did not continue.


    Since the Gao family said that Xie Chi would not live over 35 years old, how many more years did Emperor Yong Le… have left?


    “My brother is already 36 this year.” Xie Jingxing said, “The diagnosis back then might not be urate. However,” his eyes turned cold, “He is indeed getting sicker and sicker.”


    “Do the Lu and Ye families know about this?” Shen Miao asked.


    “I heard that after Emperor Xiaowu died, my mother wiped out all the people in the pce who knew about my brother’s illness. Apart from the head of the Gao family, you, I, and my sister-inw, no one else knows.”


    Shen Miao’s heart skipped a beat. She was surprised at how ruthless and decisive Empress Xiao was.


    “Then did the empress know about the illness before she married the emperor? Or after she married the emperor…” Shen Miao asked.


    Xie Jingxing looked at her with a faint smile. “What exactly do you want to ask?”


    Shen Miao thought that if Empress Xiande had long known that Emperor Yong Le would not live past 35 years old, would she still marry him? After all, it was not easy to be a widow at such a young age..
