Upon hearing Yu Yunxi’s question, Yu Zhongcheng beca even more evasive.
“Well, that..”
However, when Yu Zhongcheng sensed Yu Yunxi’s murderous intent, he could only nod and say, “Yes, it was… it was the Imperial Preceptor and the Empress’ idea.”
‘The Imperial Preceptor and the Empress?’
Yu Yunxi’s gaze turned even colder. She recalled what Aunt Qing had said back then. Before her mother’s death, the Empress had visited the Yu Residence. “What’s your relationship with the Empress?” Yu Yunxi asked sharply. Seeing that Yu Zhongcheng wanted to prevaricate again, she sneered and added, “At this ti, you still want to hide the truth from . It seems like you don’t want to live anymore.”
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk,” Yu Zhongcheng hurriedly said. He knew that Yu Yunxi was ruthless. He took a deep breath and said with difficulty, “I t the Empress when I was young, and our… our relationship was quite good..
Seeing how Yu Zhongcheng was hemming and hawing, Yu Yunxi knew what Yu Zhongcheng ant when he said his relationship with the Empress was ‘quite good’. She asked sharply, “Does the Emperor know about your relationship with the Empress?”
“I, I don’t think so. After she entered the imperial palace, we rarely interacted. Even if we t, we t privately,” Yu Zhongcheng said nervously, lowering his head.
‘As it turns out the Empress is hiding such a secret from the Emperor…’ Yu Yunxi’s eyes glinted coldly as she continued to ask, “So based on what you said, the Empress also hated my mother?”
“Of course. Your mother was already in the capital before she married . She was very different from the won in the capital, and the Emperor had a whole new level of respect for her. That was why even after your mother married into the Yu family, the Empress was still worried…” Yu Zhongcheng said, “Initially, the Imperial Preceptor only told to kill your mother secretly. However, later on, the Empress looked for and told that she hoped your mother would still be scolded after she died. So, so I ca up with that… idea…”
Since the secret was out, Yu Zhongcheng also did not hide it anymore.
“My mother’s biggest mistake in her life was working with a shaless person like you,” Yu Yunxi said coldly.
Yu Zhongcheng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Yu Yunxi put the dagger away, assuming that Yu Yunxi was going to let him go. Unexpectedly in the next mont, she suddenly stuffed sothing into his mouth. He coughed violently trying to throw up but to no avail. He asked in horror, “What did you feed ?”
Yu Yunxi looked at Yu Zhongcheng expressionlessly as she said word by word,
“It’s just a poison that’ll make you die early to atone for your sins.”
Pain assaulted Yu Zhongcheng’s body as he watched Yu Yunxi leave. He wanted to call for his servants, but he soon realized he could not make a sound at all. He felt himself gradually weakening…
In Yu Wanrong’s room.
Yu Wanrong asked uneasily, “Mother, do you really think the Imperial
Preceptor can kill Yu Yunxi?”
“Don’t worry. The Imperial Preceptor’s ability is beyond our imagination,” Madam Chen said gently as she patted Yu Wanrong’s shoulder comfortingly.
“Is that so?”
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind the mother and daughter.
Yu Wanrong and Madam Chen’s hearts sank when they heard this voice. They hurriedly turned around and saw Yu Yunxi standing behind them.
“You! Why are you here?” Yu Wanrong asked in horror. She was so nervous that she tripped and fell to the ground.
Madam Chen quickly helped her daughter up, asking anxiously, “Wanrong, are you okay?”
As she supported Yu Wanrong, Madam Chen asked angrily, “Yu Yunxi, didn’t you say that you won’t return to the Yu Residence? Why are you here now?”
“Madam Chen, I heard that you were about to die from so illness. Why are you still so energetic?” Yu Yunxi asked with a mocking smile as she slowly walked toward Madam Chen.
“I, I…” Madam Chen averted her gaze, and her expression was unnatural. At the sa ti, she furtively shot Yu Wanrong a look, wanting Yu Wanrong to find a chance to escape and report this matter to Yu Zhongcheng.
Yu Yunxi saw through their plan at a glance and said icily, “Yu Wanrong, if you plan to reDort this to Yu Zhonzchenz, I advise vou not to waste vour ti. After all, it’s still unknown if he’s alive or not.’
‘What?’
Yu Wanrong and Madam Chen grew even more uneasy when they heard these words.
After a mont, Madam Chen forced herself to calm down and asked sternly,
“Yu Yunxi, speak clearly. What do you an by that?”
Yu Yunxi did not intend to explain herself at all. Instead, she said frostily,
“Madam Chen, do you still rember what you did to my mother back then?”
“You… Why are you ntioning this again?” Madam Chen’s eyes flashed slightly, and she instinctively moved back.
Yu Yunxi no longer had the patience to talk nonsense with them. She quickly pressed the two won’s acupoints and stuffed sothing into their mouths.
Madam Chen and Yu Wanrong widened their eyes in fear. Imdiately after, they felt sharp pains in their abdons.
“Don’t worry. This poison won’t take your lives away; it’ll only disfigure you. You’ll have to suffer a few hours every day until the day you die,” Yu Yunxi said stonily before she left.
Previously, Yu Yunxi did not have ti to deal with them. However, now that she had ti, none of them would be able to escape.
Just as she opened the door to leave, Yu Yunxi saw Yu Yongnian return.
Yu Yongnian looked at her inquisitively and asked, “Eldest Sister, why are you here?”
Yu Yunxi frowned slightly. She hated everyone in the Yu family except for… Yu Yongnian.
At this mont, Yu Wanrong, who was in the room, fell to the ground again. Coincidentally, she looked up and t Yu Yongnian’s gaze. She whimpered a few tis and looked at him with a plaintive gaze.
Yu Yongnian could naturally guess what had happened.
Yu Yunxi took a deep breath before she raised her head and looked at Yu
Yongnian calmly. She said, “It’s fine if you want to settle scores with now…”
Yu Yunxi knew her position was different from that of Yu Yongnian. She wanted to avenge her mother, but she understood that they were his biological mother and sister, after all.
Yu Yongnian’s feelings were extrely complicated at this mont. After a long silence, he looked away and said with great difficulty, “Eldest Sister, the Prince Regent and Junjin must be waiting for your return. Hurry up and go back. As for … I’ll just pretend I didn’t see you in the Yu Residence.’
Yu Yunxi was slightly shocked. Her emotions were complicated as she looked at Yu Yongnian. After a mont, she said in a slightly trembling voice, “Thank you.”
After nodding to Yu Yongnian, Yu Yunxi hurried to the study. She packed all the books and took them away. At this ti, Yu Zhongcheng was already unconscious. He could be dead for all she knew. However, she did not feel a trace of sadness in her heart because he deserved it.
When Yu Yunxi returned, Qian Jiao saw her carrying sothing from afar. She ran over and asked, “Princess Consort, what are you carrying? Let help you.”
“It’s my mother’s dical journals,” Yu Yunxi replied softly. The last things her mother left in the Yu family had been taken away by her. In the future, the Yu family no longer had anything to do with her.
“Where’s His Royal Highness?” Yu Yunxi asked.
“Princess Consort, the Imperial Preceptor has returned to the capital ahead of ti. The Emperor personally welcod him, and His Royal Highness was summoned,” Qian Jiao quickly replied.
‘The Imperial Preceptor has returned to the capital?’
