She humiliated me because she knew that there was nothing I could do to stop her. But eventually her crimes came to light and she was stripped of her title and imprisoned.
Jinmi and Xufeng came back and she could be my bride now. But he'd realized his feelings and was determined to fight for her. There was no consideration to ask for anything I'd been through. None at all. So I put a plan into action after someone murdered Jinmi's father and his wife.
[His eyes slowly open but he doesn't look to the man across from him.]
The culprit looked like my brother but I knew it wasn't him. But that did not stop me from sending dreams to Jinmi to have her believe such. And while that was happening I was gathering allies in the Heavens. So on the day of our wedding my brother came to arrest me but instead I turned it around on my own father and staged an uprising. All people loyal to my father and brother turned against them to fight in my favor. My father could do nothing for I'd given him a poison to weaken him.
My brother fought me but before either of us could truly do anything Jinmi killed him, fully believing that he was her father's murderer. My father used the very last of his life to send one piece of my brother away so that he could hopefully be resurrected.
I had the Immortals on my side and I was made Emperor. Jinmi's pill had shattered though and she could only think about Xufeng and what she'd done to him. I tried and tried to heal her broken heart but she continued to dwell on him instead.
And I had the Empress put under house arrest. She wanted to commit suicide when she learned of all that had happened. [He lets out a bitter laugh.] I wouldn't let her. I wanted to live and suffer knowing that all her hopes and dreams had died with the men she committed great evils for.
Save for Jinmi's heart, everything was in my favor...
