Su Majestad - Capítulo 31
...It turns out that we've reached a point where there's no need to meet unless there's a specific reason.
"good."
Yue Shenhong arrived at Fuxiaoxuan first, and in front of the mirror, she slowly transformed herself into Tang Congrong.
Then comb his hair into a masculine style.
They changed into men's clothes.
The person in the mirror suddenly appeared to be Tang Congrong.
Suddenly, she saw Tang Qiefang in the mirror and smiled, "Brother Tang, are you done with your work?"
Tang Qiefang didn't speak, but threw a pill into the basin of water. "Shen Hong, you don't need to disguise yourself as someone else every day. Change to another one."
Yue Shenhong's face stiffened slightly, but she quickly composed herself and asked, "Then, who should I pretend to be?"
Tang Qiefang smiled and said, "Whatever."
That smile was so desolate. Yue Shenhong felt a pang in her heart. "It's okay to treat me as him."
These words struck Tang Qiefang like a whip, making him tense up. "What did you say?"
Yue Shenhong shed tears, "I said, if you treat me as the person you long for to be by your side, I don't mind."
Tang Qiefang's pupils contracted sharply, like a cat's, like a snake's. "Do you know why I crippled Yue Shenlan's martial arts?"
"If you want to cripple my martial arts, I will have no complaints," Yue Shenhong said softly.
From the very first moment she saw him, she was already doomed in his hands. His gentle smile brought her joy. His desolation and sorrow saddened her even more.
She always thought she was smart and capable, handling everything smoothly, from seizing the Cloud Barrier to helping her father manage the gang's affairs. But in front of him, she was just a woman who had fallen in love.
Even knowing that his gentle gaze was only because she had changed her face, even knowing that his meticulous care was only for her because he saw another person, it didn't matter. As long as she could see him like this, as long as she could stay by his side, pretending to be Tang Congrong, she was willing.
This is how you end up not in control of your own life. Sometimes you look down on yourself, but when you see him, you can't help but want to please him.
She covered her face, tears welling up between her fingers.

She shouldn't have revealed that secret. But why couldn't she control her tongue?
Tang Qiefang's voice was chilling, "Don't think I can't do it."
Of course he could do it; she had seen him poison people before, and he could even smile while doing so.
She closed her eyes.
It would be best to kill her.
To die in his hands is like dying in his arms.
The room was deathly silent for a long time.
He ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Go on your way. Study hard at the Thirteen Riders. Your father's hopes are on you." Tang Qiefang's voice was pale and weary.
Yue Shenhong opened her eyes and looked at him sadly.
“You’re very smart, you naturally know what you should do.” Tang Qiefang’s lips were as red as blood, her face as white as snow, and the faint blush at the corners of her eyes was exceptionally beautiful. “Here are two pills. Take them to Yue Shenlan. I was too harsh that day. I hope these pills can help him recover his strength.” After saying that, he sat down in front of the mirror.
Moon Deep Red did not leave.
He gave a bleak smile to his reflection in the mirror. "What? You want me to apologize? Yes, apologize to him for me. He's right, and you're right too. I'm gay, I like men, I'm filthy, I'm despicable. I made you dress up as that person because I desperately wanted to see him, yet I was also afraid to see him. I mistook you for him..."
"Don't say anymore..." Yue Shenhong said with tears in her eyes, "I'm willing for you to treat me like him, and I'm willing to do whatever you want to me."
Tang Qiefang slowly raised his head. At that moment, a thought crossed his mind: if he loved this woman, could he pull her back to the right path?
Tears welled in her eyes, and her expression was earnest.
Oh no, no, her tears cannot turn into mist and dampen his heart.
Her sadness did not affect him, and he had no urge to hold her in his arms.
She is not that person.
No one will be that person.
He will forever remain trapped in this dark nightmare, never to return.
He released her hand. "Crimson, go back to your world. Don't pay attention to me anymore. You will know what you want. Your father and the Qingcheng Sect are waiting for you to return."
Yue Shenhong's body stiffened slightly.
Tang Qiefang closed her eyes and smiled.
No one can save him.
This matter was resolved perfectly, and Tang Yuchang was very satisfied, as was everyone in the Tang Clan. Indeed, only the patriarch could persuade Seventh Uncle.
That year, the Tang Clan was peaceful and successful as usual. Several members of the Thirteen Riders even gained some fame in the martial arts world. Yue Shenhong went out with the Thirteen Riders a few times, and people in the martial arts world knew that there was such a person.
Even after Tang Congrong officially assumed the position of family head, he continued to maintain contact with figures in the imperial court. This was unprecedented in the Tang Clan's more than one hundred-year history. However, the fact that this family head took office at sixteen and mastered the Flower Rain Needle technique at nineteen was also unprecedented in the Tang Clan.
Before they knew it, the end of the year arrived. The Tang Clan was bustling with activity, setting off firecrackers and pasting up couplets. Meanwhile, the servants of Fuxiao Pavilion were busy making lanterns, having started preparations before the new year.
