C58 (1/2)
The blue-robed eunuch hid the glee in his eyes, lifted his chin, and ordered loudly, ”Let her go, let her confess!”
The two guards let go of Palace Maid's hand.
Palace Maid laid on the ground as she panted heavily. Then, with tears in her eyes, she looked at Noble Consort Hua and kowtowed three times to her. ”Empress, I'm sorry. This servant really can't take it anymore …”
Noble Consort Hua looked at her with astonishment, a trace of pain and despair in his eyes: ”Ru Yi, what are you talking about! ”How could I …”
”Empress!” The blue-clothed eunuch suddenly raised his voice, interrupting her words. ”Don't say anymore. Otherwise, if your beautiful face swells up, it'll be ugly.”
He looked at the ground again, ”Hurry up and attack. If you can bring out all of them, we'll give you a corpse. ”
Palace Maid laid on the ground for a long time without making a sound. Then she suddenly raised her head, and miserably smiled at Noble Consort: ”Empress, take care! This servant will be leaving first! ”
Before anyone could react, she suddenly charged straight towards the pillar in the hall and slammed her head against it.
”BOOM!”
With a loud bang, the Palace Maid collapsed to the ground, leaving behind a deep red trail of blood on the pillar.
”Ruyi —!” After being stunned for a moment, Noble Consort Hua cried out in grief and tears flowed out of his eyes, ”Ru Yi … ”I am the one who has let you down …”
The blue-clothed eunuch's eyes flashed with resentment. This damned slave had ruined his plans! However … With a roll of his eyes, he had a solution, ”This lowly slave has committed suicide out of fear of her crimes! Take good care of Noble Consort Hua, let us report this to the emperor! If anything goes wrong, be careful of your heads! ”
Although the guards did not want to hear the words of a eunuch, this eunuch was the emperor's favorite and they did not want to be noticed by him. So even though they were dissatisfied, every one of them still dared to speak more.
The blue-robed eunuch stepped out of the hall door and headed straight for the imperial study. His hurried steps suddenly stopped as a weak voice whispered into his ear, ”Hades is dead. We have found his corpse.”
The corners of his mouth curled up, and he continued walking as if he had not stopped.
One was taken care of, and there were two more!
He flung the whisk from his hand and stepped into the high threshold of the Imperial study.
Not long after, the decree of the emperor was passed down. ”Noble Consort Hua has suffered a loss in terms of virtue and character, is jealous of his character, plotted against the emperor's heir, and gifted him with a cup of poison.
The capital was once again in an uproar. No matter how much the Hua Clan didn't believe it, the imperial edict had already been passed down. They could do nothing but secretly hate the Emperor in their hearts.
In the dark, a man sneered. He tied a piece of news to the messenger eagle's leg and let it out.
The emperor had brought about his own destruction. Although the Hua family wasn't some powerful government official, the Imperial Tutor was the third generation of the Hua family. Their disciples were spread throughout the night, and the Hua family only had one daughter in this generation. This time, Ye Yuxiu had even removed the last layer of protection on his own, it would be difficult for the master to not achieve anything major.
Regardless of how turbulent and turbulent the situation was in the capital, the border crossing was still tense.
The terrain of the Yan City was extremely unique. It was built according to the mountains, with high mountain cliffs on both sides. However, before and after, it was a vast open plain. The Yan City was like a stopper stuck in a bottle, behind them was a large piece of fertile ground during the night.
