The Yandere Male Lead Chases Me

Chapter 1288: The Emperor Is Expecting 2

The Empress of Tiansheng Country who is about to ascend the throne today.

Age 17.

She sneaked out of the palace to play and was knocked unconscious.

When she woke up again, she was already in a temple.

Meanwhile, another ’substitute’ had taken the Emperor’s throne.

A new Empress was appointed.

Afterwards, the original body was devastated by this incident, refused to eat or drink, and kept crying in the temple.

She passed out for a day and night.

When she woke up again, it was now.

Xiao Hua spoke up

"The original body’s wish is to reclaim the throne that belongs to her."

Su Yan listened, her dark eyelashes trembling.

She asked in confusion,

"What happened to the original body in the end?"

Xiao Hua replied in a childish voice,

"Later, the original body returned to the Imperial Palace to try to reclaim her identity, but she was weak and no one believed her.

In the end, she was sentenced to death by slow slicing for impersonating a member of the Royal Family."

Xiao Hua sighed while speaking,

"This Empress is really pitiful."

"Is this era a matriarchal society where women dominate men?"

"No. It’s just because she was the last bloodline of the Royal family Su Family.

And also because the Regent King Situ Xiu protected her strongly.

That’s how she ascended to the throne."

Su Yan nodded,

"Oh."

She responded.

Then, she obediently picked up the bun in her hand and continued to eat.

First, she needed to fill her stomach.

Then, she would talk about reclaiming the throne.

The man who had just given Su Yan the bun watched as Su Yan finished eating it.

With a gentle smile on his face,

"Miss, would you like another one?"

Su Yan shook her head,

"No."

This body had a small appetite.

Just one bun was enough to fill her up.

The man seemed to think it wasn’t easy for Su Yan to be alone.

After pondering for a moment, he said,

"I am Zhao Mu, heading to the Capital for the imperial exams. Does Miss need any assistance from me?"

Su Yan shook her head,

"No need."

Zhao Mu walked up to Su Yan and consoled her,

"You don’t need to be afraid, Miss. I’m not a bad person, I’m just worried it’s dangerous for you to be alone out here.

May I know your name, Miss?"

Su Yan looked up,

"Su······"

She had just said a word.

Xiao Hua said,

"Host, in Tiansheng Country, the surname Su belongs to the Royal family, and no commoners have this surname.

It’s a serious taboo. Su Yan is also the well-known name of the Empress.

If you share the same name, you’ll be sentenced to death."

Su Yan had said one word but swallowed the rest back down.

Her throat was a little hoarse just after waking up.

And besides, in this world, only one person carried the surname Su.

Zhao Mu listened to the single character she uttered and asked,

"Song? Is it Miss Song?"

Su Yan blinked her eyes.

Her face, pale without blood, looked a bit pitiful.

Then, she nodded,

"Yes."

Zhao Mu further asked,

"What is Miss Song’s full name?"

"···· Su"

"So, it’s Miss Song Su, I apologize if I was overstepping my bounds."

Su Yan leaned against the wall.

For a while, she remained there.

The bun she ate gave some effect.

She regained some strength.

Holding onto the wall, she stood up and moved outside.

Zhao Mu was surprised,

"Miss, you still need more rest."

Su Yan shook her head,

"There are still things to do."

Zhao Mu saw that she was alone and so thin and frail that he couldn’t help but worry.

He followed Su Yan outside.

But he did not come too close or recklessly disturb her.

Instead, he kept about three meters behind Su Yan.

Xiao Hua whispered,

"Host, that scholar has been following you.

Does he have a crush on you?"

Su Yan’s eyes were clear as she slowly said,

"That’s none of my concern."

It had nothing to do with her.

The gossiping Xiao Hua quietly shut up.

As they walked, they heard the sound of fighting ahead.

"Protect the Prince and leave first!!"

She looked up, since it was a bend with trees in between, she couldn’t see what was happening on the other side.

However, even from such a distance, she could smell the salty tang of blood.
