“Yunxin, that medicine has no poison at all. Why are you doing this for him?” The man's tone was close to a roar, his heart aching for this woman. What was so good about that man? Why did he deserve such devotion from her while dismissing her efforts?
Although he had indeed been a playboy in the past, after meeting her, he could no longer tolerate anyone else in his eyes.
“Why? Don't you understand? Because I love him, so even if he tells me to die, I would do it without hesitation!” Yunxin's eyes were filled with deep disdain; she understood the man's feelings well enough.
But similarly, she could no longer tolerate anyone else in her eyes either.
“Even if he tells you to die just for the sake of another woman's Queen position?” The man looked at the woman before him, who was almost driven mad by love, in disbelief. He really wanted to hit her hard to wake her up.
Hearing this, Yunxin felt as if she had been struck hard in the Heart, the pain leaving her bloodied and bruised.
It was only at this moment that she realized how cold the Heavenly Prison truly was.
Clearly, she already had the answer in her heart, but she still couldn't help but tremble as she asked, “What... Queen position?”
“That woman is your lady, your master. She is now Consort Yun!” The man sneered coldly. “Do you know? During today’s morning court session, Empress Dowager and Su Mo Yuan used Gu Yuniang's natural Freak status to make a case against her, requesting that man to depose her. But do you know what the Emperor said? Not only does he want to make her a consort, but he also wants to make her the empress. So what does your long-standing silent sacrifice count for? What does your suffering alone in this dark Heavenly Prison amount to?”
The man's words were merciless, each one piercing directly into Yunxin's chest.
“Ah...” She let out a miserable cry, clutching her head and weeping uncontrollably. Tears had already streamed down; please stop talking, I beg you not to say anymore...
Seeing her cry, the man felt extreme pain and regretted his cruel words. He also hated that man for being so heartless towards Yunxin. His gaze darkened, and a sinister light flickered in his pupils. “Yunxin, don’t be sad. I will go kill that woman for you. Then you will have no more threats!”
His gaze darkened again as a sinister light flickered in his pupils. “Yunxin, don’t be sad. I will go kill that woman for you. Then you will have no more threats!”
A strange glimmer flashed in Yunxin's eyes as she looked at the man before her with red-rimmed eyes, remaining silent for a long time.
Before visiting Yunxin, Tian Feiyao repeatedly reminded Gu Yuniang not to stay long in the Heavenly Prison, after all, it was not a good place. Seeing his nagging demeanor, Gu Yuniang couldn't help but laugh, "With the way you're acting, where's the sign of being poisoned?"
Tian Feiyao was speechless and could only remain silent.
His originally bright eyes immediately dimmed.
Sigh, actually getting poisoned isn't easy.
Seeing him like this, Gu Yuniang felt extremely guilty. Now that his life and death were uncertain, she was making such jokes. A wave of bitterness surged in her heart; she comforted Tian Feiyao for a moment before heading out to call Ugly Girl to go to the Heavenly Prison.
On the way, she repeatedly warned Ugly Girl not to speak carelessly or intentionally provoke Yunxin.
Ugly Girl hummed a couple of times in agreement.
However, she was quite suspicious; that girl must have feelings for Tian Feiyao, so how could she possibly poison him? There must be some untold secret behind this!
Perhaps Tian Feiyao wasn't poisoned at all.
The thought startled her. What kind of experiences had Tian Feiyao not gone through? How could he possibly get poisoned in the Imperial Palace? Moreover, only Luo Qingyun had checked his pulse; these two were practically in cahoots!
What exactly did Tian Feiyao want to do? What role did Yunxin play?
All the way there, she tilted her head pondering these questions.
"Ugly Girl, what are you thinking? You seem distracted!" Gu Yuniang observed her expressive face—sometimes surprised, sometimes calm—and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Nothing much, I was just wondering why Yunxin hasn't been executed yet! As long as she exists, my eyes will be polluted!" Ugly Girl chuckled and said nonchalantly.
What she was thinking had no basis at all; it was better not to tell this silly woman for now.
Gu Yuniang's forehead creased with a few dark lines. "You mustn't say that in front of Yunxin later. Otherwise... you two will definitely end up fighting!"
"Let’s fight then. Do you think I can’t take her on?" Ugly Girl replied dismissively. Just then, her eyes narrowed, and a wave of killing intent enveloped the two of them.
With a whoosh, a tiny silver needle shot towards the unsuspecting Gu Yuniang, glinting in the sunlight. Ugly Girl leaped forward, her arm exerting force as her slender fingers precisely pinched the needle.
Gu Yuniang was still confused. "What happened? What's going on?"
"Someone wants to kill you!" Ugly Girl's eyes sparkled with dangerous light. How bold was this person to attempt an assassination against Consorts in broad daylight at the Imperial Palace!
Hmph, but it was just amateurish skills; how could they show off in front of her?
"Ah! No way!" Upon hearing this, Gu Yuniang's face turned pale. Tian Feiyao had been poisoned and her life was uncertain; could it be that she would also meet her end at the Imperial Palace?
"It's fine, I'm here. Don't worry!" Ugly Girl quickly reassured her upon seeing her expression. Perhaps the more time they spent together, the more she realized that she truly didn’t hate Gu Yuniang anymore.
In fact... at certain moments, she regarded her as family.
She would rather get hurt herself than let anything happen to her.
Ugly Girl looked down at her already darkening nails and discreetly hid them behind her back.
Gu Yuniang knew that Ugly Girl was highly skilled, and at this moment, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
The thought that she had been so close to death just now sent chills down her spine.
She certainly didn’t want to die before Tian Feiyao because she understood that the one left behind would be the most tormented.
She was willing to bear this suffering.
At that moment, a figure swiftly darted through the trees ahead.
"Who goes there? Come out!" Gu Yuniang shouted.
Upon hearing her voice, the person walked out slowly and stood before the two of them.
Seeing him, Gu Yuniang was taken aback. "It's you?" She had initially thought it was an assassin, but it turned out to be him!
The newcomer was named Mo Ting, the only son of the former Chancellor of the Great Zhou. He was known for his flirtatious and reckless behavior, earning a notorious reputation in the Great Zhou. Gu Yuniang had once had a complicated history with him.
The past events were still vivid in her mind, and now, as members of prominent families in the Great Zhou, they encountered each other in the palace.
Gu Yuniang had a poor impression of him. At that moment, seeing him standing there in silence, she couldn't help but feel mischievous. "How dare you not pay your respects upon seeing me! Mo Ting, you come from a noble family; how can you not understand such basic etiquette?"
She mocked him with a smile, feeling a vague sense of satisfaction from revenge.
This man had once slapped her in public.
Just thinking about that made it impossible for her to treat him with any kind of nostalgic affection.
