Wen Xu looked at Zhao Ming seriously and said, " After seeing Xiao Li and hearing her lethal words, I realized how wrong I was. All along I cared for someone who was just using me against hating you while the one who always respected me and listened to all the scoldings from me, I kept hating her." she smiled bitterly.
" You always worked hard for the harem but I kept pushing you away and embraced a snake. Zhao Ming, I..really did not know that it was Xiao Li who pushed you into the pond that day and even poisoned you. Now if I think about it...I have never treated you right."
" I...drugged Ji Cheng's wine because of superstition but also poisoned you to not get...pregnant from it. I was afraid that just as the monk said, you might bring the dark energy in the palace, and the child birthed by you will only be cursed. That's why I was scared and did that.." she said while not daring to look into her eyes and just stared at her hands.
