This weapon had never failed her. With it, she could survive in a desperate environment, turn around the terrible situation, and step on the people who trampled on her. However, once her face was ruined, she would lose the means to manipulate others.

She indeed felt despair and even lost her fighting spirit. She felt that no struggle could change anything.

She was blind and her face was disfigured. She could almost imagine how terrifying she looked now. She could tempt people to risk their lives for her. There was no lack of those people in the world who would climb the high mountain just to pick a flower. However, now that the flowers had become weeds, who would still risk their lives to pick them?

Fu Xiuyi was really ruthless. He had been with Ye Mei for so many days. Perhaps because he understood Ye Mei’s ability to bewitch people, he decided to destroy it. He directly ruined Ye Mei’s face and made her unable to do anything.

Ye Mei hated him so much!

Footsteps came from outside, echoing especially clearly in the empty dungeon.

She turned her neck with some effort and looked out with her other eye. Fu Xiuyi stood outside.

He said coldly, “Ye Mei, I’ll give you one last chance. Tell me everything you know.”

“What do I know?” Ye Mei asked.

Fu Xiuyi frowned in disgust, as if he was disgusted by her ugly face. He turned his head away. “I’ve investigated everything. Since you’re a spy from the Daliang Dynasty, you should have a way to communicate with them!”

Ye Mei laughed out loud.

Her laughter was hoarse, and it was no longer as pleasant as before. Instead, it was very ear-piercing. She did not know why Fu Xiuyi said that she was a spy. Perhaps Fu Xiuyi just wanted to find a reason for his failure and a target to pin the blame on.

She said, “Your Majesty, you won’t believe in anything I say, so what’s the point of asking me if I have a way to communicate with them? You’ll think I’m lying anyway.”

“Tell me and I’ll grant you an intact corpse,” Fu Xiuyi said coldly.

Ye Mei smiled. When she smiled now, her face was terrifying, like a ghoul.

However, she did not realize it and even tried to be flirtatious. She said, “Your Majesty, what kind of condition is that? If you say that you can let me live and think of a way to treat the wound on my face, I can consider it and tell you everything I know.”

Fu Xiuyi smiled instead of being angry. “No one who betrays me can live.”

“Then why don’t you just kill me?” Ye Mei said, “I heard that back then, Princess Consort Rui also fell in love with you and pursued you. You treated her coldly, so in the end, nothing happened.”

Now that Fu Xiuyi already knew Xie Jingxing’s identity, he naturally knew Shen Miao’s identity too. At the mention of Shen Miao, Fu Xiuyi’s expression turned even uglier. In his life, he had always been in control of everything. However, Shen Miao was a variable. He thought that he could use Shen Miao’s love for him to take over the Shen family, but it didn’t go smoothly. Now that the Shen family turned around to go against him, it gave him a headache. In addition, Shen Miao gave up on him and found a better-looking person. Fu Xiuyi was extremely angry with Ye Mei for poking at his sore spot..
