Reborn to overthrow the throne, I became the new emperor's dark moonlight

Chapter 173 Sisters recognize each other

Xia's eyes were filled with surprise. "You...what do you mean?"

Her appearance had completely changed and she was on the death list. How could the little tiger recognize her?

"Fourth brother said that he saw a young barbarian warrior knock eldest sister unconscious with a knife.

A few more bodies were piled on top of her, obviously trying to save my eldest sister, so we guessed that she was still alive.

The barbarians hated the Qiao family very much. Perhaps only the people of the Shatan family spared the eldest sister's life because their father had spared Fan Ji.

The Shatan family was wiped out, with only Fan Ji surviving. The eldest sister often followed the eldest brother to the military camp.

So, my fourth brother and I prayed that Fan Ji had seen my eldest sister when he was captured, and that it was he who saved her that day."

Qiao Xi covered the upper half of the little prince's face again, "And the little prince's face, looking at it this way, he looks a lot like my eldest brother, a nephew like his uncle.

So, you are my eldest sister and he is my nephew, right?"

"Aunt, you guessed it right."

The little prince couldn't help but bow respectfully to Qiao Xi.

He performed the military ceremony of Daiyou.

Qiao Xi laughed until tears came out, and touched his head, "Good boy."

Since her son had been exposed, Xia had no need to hide anything. She walked forward and hugged Qiao Xi.

"All along the way, I've been thinking, what should I do with my little tiger if she recognizes the thief as her father and works for the enemy?

As we approached the capital, I heard about Mother's situation again, and I felt that you wouldn't be so foolish, otherwise you wouldn't have made such a big fuss about Mother's matter."

She stroked Qiao Xi's hair and said, "That's why I have to come and see for myself and hear what you have to say."

"I'm sorry, sis."

Qiao Xi hugged her back tightly, "I was too stupid. I didn't know the truth about the Qiao family's murder, and I lived a peaceful and happy life for those years.

If I had been smarter and more vigilant, perhaps I would have found you and Fourth Brother sooner, and you wouldn't have suffered so much."

My eldest sister was in such a situation back then, and she was a woman. Even if she was rescued, she probably wouldn't have had an easy time these years.

Otherwise why wouldn't she come to see her.

Su Heting couldn't bear her blaming herself, so he comforted her, "You were still young at that time, and the emperor kept the matter secret, so you can't be blamed."

Xia glanced at Su Heting, then let go of Qiao Xi and wiped the tears from her face, "Since your memory was falsified and you were deceived by the emperor into working for him, this family law will be waived.

Take me to see my fourth brother, and later the three of us will go to the ancestral hall to pay our respects together."

Her reaction was a little cold, which made Qiao Xi feel uneasy. "Is Big Sister angry with me?"

Qiao Xi was considered to be able to restrain herself, but Xia Ya's reaction was even colder than hers. She didn't even see any joy on her face.

Except for the moment of shock and joy when she learned that her fourth brother was still alive, her face remained calm.

In her impression, the elder sister was very caring towards her and always smiling. After not seeing her for more than ten years, she shouldn't be so cold.

Xia curled her lips and said, "No, I'm very happy to see you again. Don't think too much."

Qiao Xi thought of something and raised her hand to touch her chin, "What's wrong with your face, big sister?"

Why couldn't she see any signs of disguise, nor did she erase any traces of disguise?

Just at this moment, a man and a bird poked their heads out from outside the yard.

Wuyou smiled and said, "Because her face was replaced by Ye Er, the great doctor of Dasheng, you naturally can't see any traces."

Qiao Xi felt a pain in her heart.

"What happened after Big Sister woke up that day?"

If her appearance had not been damaged, she believed that her elder sister would never have changed her face for no reason, and replaced it with a barbarian's face.

Xia curled her fingers slightly.

As Qiao Xi guessed, Fan Ji was captured when he was young. She had met him and given him two steamed buns.

When Fan Ji realized that something was wrong in the battle, he knocked her out with a sword, leaving her a chance to survive.

That day, she woke up from a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and all she saw were the bodies of her family and Qiao's army.

Before she could feel sad, she smelled the smell of burning flesh in the air and saw thick smoke billowing above her head, coming from the direction of the Qiao family.

She thought of her brothers and sisters who stayed at home, and stumbled all the way back to the Qiao family, avoiding the sight of the barbarians.

What caught my eye was half the sky burning red, the fire that could not be put out, the houses that collapsed in the fire, and the desperate smell of burned family members in the air.

At that time, she thought that it was the barbarians who harmed the Qiao family. When the barbarian soldiers discovered her and she had nowhere to escape, she simply cut her face with a dagger, put on barbarian clothes, disguised herself as a barbarian soldier, and followed them back to the barbarian camp.

There are few barbarian women, so their ancestors abducted many Han women from the surrounding areas. Therefore, there are many barbarian people who look like Dayou.

In addition, the Qiao family guarded the border to resist the barbarians. In order to know themselves and the enemy, the children of the Qiao family would be taught the barbarian language after their enlightenment.

Therefore, she remained in the barbarian army for more than a year without being discovered.

Until the old Barbarian King died and the new King ascended the throne and came to inspect the army, she wanted to assassinate him.

The new king was stabbed by her, but his life was not in danger. Instead, she was captured by the new king's guards.

She was imprisoned for three months and suffered torture. It was Fan Ji who saved her again.

However, Fan Ji also exposed herself because of this. When she learned that there were still people alive in the Shatan family, the Barbarian King sent people everywhere to capture her and Fan Ji.

For a time, women who did not look like barbarians had a hard time making their way among the barbarians. Her and Fan Ji's situation was also very worrying. They had no sleep and even caused the loss of many of Fan Ji's subordinates.

Not wanting to drag Fan Ji down, she had to temporarily give up the idea of ​​assassinating the Barbarian King and try to return to Dayou and then slowly plan it.

However, on the way back to Dayou, he was found by the Barbarian King's men and was fortunately rescued by the traveling Wuyou.

Later, Fan Ji also found her, and at that time he had already discovered the truth that the Shatan family and the Qiao family were conspired by the monarchs of the two countries.

The Qiao family was harmed by the emperor. If she returns to Dayou, the emperor will definitely not tolerate her, and may even implicate her sister.

And she received news that the emperor, in order to show his benevolence, brought his sister into the palace, named her Princess Chaoyang, and arranged for her to marry the crown prince.

The prince was very caring towards his sister, so she thought that since her sister was still young, it was a blessing and a safety for her not to know the truth.

It was her responsibility to avenge the Qiao family, so she asked the genius doctor Ye Er, who had traveled with Wuyou that year, to change her appearance.

From then on, she was able to gain a foothold in the barbarian tribe and build up her own power bit by bit. After the barbarians were severely damaged by Su Heting, she took the opportunity to instigate civil strife among the barbarians, and joined hands with Shatan to overthrow the royal family of the barbarians and sit on the throne.

It's just that she was too harsh on herself back then and damaged her facial nerves. Even if she had a new face, she would no longer be able to express many expressions.

Xia Ya omitted the suffering and simply told Qiao Xi about her experience, "In the past, I was not sure if I could succeed, so I didn't dare to let you know that I was still alive.

Firstly, I'm afraid that the Si family will find out and bring disaster to you. Secondly, if I lose, it will only make you sad again for no reason.

But it was my fault that the Emperor tampered with your memory. Don't blame your elder sister."

Although she knew that the prince was a decent man and was good to her younger sister, he was a member of the Si family after all, and he and the emperor were biological father and son.

She didn't dare to bet that the prince would turn against his biological father for the Qiao family.

After the prince passed away, Qiao Xi stayed in the palace to recuperate, and it became even more difficult for her people to contact her. In addition, she and Fan Ji were also having a hard time in the barbarian tribe at that time.

There was guilt in Xia's eyes.

After all, it was her fault.

Qiao Xi buried her face in her arms, and her tears soaked Xia's clothes bit by bit.

She knew that her elder sister must be in a difficult situation, otherwise she would never ignore her.

After letting her cry for a while, Xia patted her back and said, "Let's go. Take me to see my fourth brother."

Then he said to Huahua on Wuyou's shoulder, "Please defend us for us."

Huahua raised her head proudly, spread her wings and flew out.

It said that this family cannot do without it.

That old man Wuyou can't do anything except eating, drinking and having fun. What can you expect from him?
