This Palace is Guiltless! After Being Read Through by Using a Slacker Strategy, Everyone Repents

Jiang Yu died, dying at the hands of the three children she had painstakingly raised. Her husband disdained her, and the children loathed her. She was forced to bear the infamy of being a wicked co...

Chapter 296 The Truth Comes Out, Regret is Deep

The next day, Yunmo and Yunhui waited outside the Minghua Water Pavilion early in the morning, and even Pei Zhi got up very early.

It seemed that after learning about Yun Zhi's injury yesterday, everyone vaguely sensed that today was unusual.

"Everyone's here?" Jiang Yu wasn't too surprised. "Let's take Yun Qing with us and go visit the family head."

forecourt.

When Butler Cheng saw a group of people approaching in a "grand procession," his brow twitched instinctively. "My lords, the head of the family is injured and needs to rest. It is inconvenient for him to see anyone."

“Butler Cheng, we know that the eldest young master injured the head of the family yesterday, so we brought him here to apologize to the head of the family.”

Butler Cheng glanced at Yun Qing, who was bound hand and foot and had a rag stuffed in her mouth. Her eyes were wide open in anger, making her look terrifying.

"Miss Cousin..."

Before Butler Cheng could finish speaking, Jiang Yu bypassed him and pushed open the door.

Inside the room, Yun Zhi coughed. Butler Cheng shuddered. Why did Miss Biao look so strange?

"Yun Zhi, I've brought Yun Qing to you."

Jiang Yu shoved Yun Qing in front of Yun Zhi, who was still lying in bed. Upon hearing this, Yun Zhi immediately struggled to sit up. "You unfilial son! I'm going to kill you!"

Upon seeing this, Yunmo paused for a moment, then removed the rag from Yunqing's mouth.

"What right does Father have to kill me?" Yun Qing's face showed a mocking expression. "My aunt committed suicide in Father's place. What's wrong with Father sacrificing himself for my future?"

"You, all these years I've raised such an ungrateful wretch?"

"If I am an ungrateful wretch, then what is Father?" Yun Qing forgot all her resentment towards Jiang Yu, her eyes filled with the murderous intent emanating from Yun Zhi. "Back then, Father, you thought that my stepmother was unfaithful and refused to give you the Pei family's medicine formula, so you killed her. Only a little over ten years have passed, and Father has already forgotten?"

"Does Father think he can live with a clear conscience now that his aunt is dead?"

As soon as Yun Qing spoke, everyone present, except for Jiang Yu, changed their expressions.

"You unfilial son, it was clearly your aunt who had malicious intentions." Yun Zhi inadvertently met Pei Zhi's cold gaze, and instantly sobered up. "You framed me and even tried to kill me, Yun Qing. You are such an ungrateful and disloyal wretch, you don't deserve to be a member of the Yun family."

Yun Qing suddenly started laughing, and the laughter grew louder and louder.

Turning to look at Jiang Yu, she said, "You said that only one of us could live, him or me."

Upon seeing this, Yun Zhi's eyes narrowed sharply. "Ming'er?"

"Insolence!" Jiang Yu glared at Yun Zhi. "I am the Empress Dowager of the Great Yu Dynasty, not some Yun Ming!"

At this moment, all of Yun Zhi's composure crumbled.

......

"ah--"

A piercing scream rang out. Pei Zhi looked at Yun Qing, who was rolling on the ground, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. "Were any of the things you just said false?"

"Absolutely not... absolutely not a single falsehood..."

Yun Qing's face turned deathly pale with pain, but Pei Zhi smiled slowly, "So, you killed her because she refused to tell you the Pei family's medicine formula?"

"Not only that," Yun Qing desperately grabbed Pei Zhi, "Give me the antidote...I'll tell you everything..."

"Sister Azhi, give him the antidote."

Yunmo's voice rang out, and Pei Zhi gave Yun Qing a pill. Yun Qing breathed heavily.

"Speak quickly."

Pei Zhi's words made Yun Qing tremble, and she hurriedly spoke up:

“At that time, even Yun Hui was still very young. From the first time her stepmother refused, Yun Zhi deliberately treated her coldly.” At this moment, Yun Qing only had the will to survive and had no time to care about anything else.

"Gradually, everyone in the Yun family began to bully the stepmother."

Yun Hui's eyes began to redden, and Yun Mo stared intently at Yun Zhi.

"Later, Father asked my stepmother again, and all I know is that she still didn't agree that time." Yunqing paused here, "After that day, my stepmother became pregnant."

Yun Qing looked at Yun Mo, and in an instant, Yun Mo understood everything.

"Did you force my mother to give birth to me?"

Yunmo was extremely close to Yunzhi, so close that Yunzhi could hear the sound of Yunmo clenching his teeth.

"Mo'er, don't listen to his nonsense, he's gone mad."

Yun Zhi forced a smile, but the next second, the smile froze on his face, and disbelief flashed in his eyes.

How could his usually obedient daughter... stab Yun Qing in the heart?

"Second sister?"

When Yunmo turned around and saw Yunhui holding the knife, he was struck dumb.

Only Jiang Yu sighed inwardly.

“Everyone bullies us, so my mother and I are together all the time.” A hint of madness flashed in Yunhui’s eyes. “But that day, you called me away and said you would take me to the temple to pray for my mother.”

Yun Hui screamed in anguish, brandishing the knife in both hands and lunging at Yun Qing again, "You lied to me, Yun Qing, you deserve to die!"

Yun Hui was in a daze. She only realized today that her one and only departure had caused her to miss the chance to save her mother.

"Don't panic, first release your strength and let go."

Jiang Yu reached out and helped Yun Hui up. "You did very well. Your mother will be at peace if she knows this in the afterlife."

After saying this, Yunhui completely broke down and cried.

......

"You..." Suddenly, Yun Zhi seemed to realize something, his eyes filled with disbelief, "How did you step out of the Tea Flower Pavilion without my permission?"

Every time Jiang Yu stepped out of the Minghua Water Pavilion, she needed to inform Yun Zhi in advance, and then Yun Zhi would briefly unlock the mechanism outside the Minghua Water Pavilion.

"Looks like you're still pretty sharp."

Jiang Yu helped Yun Hui sit down in a chair, and then walked to Yun Zhi's bedside. "Tell me, how did you bring me to the Yun family back then?"

So many people were searching for her after she fell off the cliff. If they hadn't deliberately hidden her, how could they have brought her to Luoming?

"Hahahaha!" Yun Zhi suddenly laughed. "You answer me first, how exactly did you step out of the Tea Blossom Pavilion?"

Yun Zhi's hands were trembling. "You solved the mechanism outside the Minghua Pavilion?"

Seeing that Jiang Yu remained silent, Yun Zhi shook his head. "Impossible... That mechanism was the culmination of my life's work. There's no way anyone in this world could crack it!"

"I cracked it."

The air in the room seemed to freeze for a moment. Following the sound, Yun Zhi slowly looked at Yun Mo.

This son, whom he hated from birth.

"You... cracked it?"

"Three days."

Yunmo and Yunzhi looked at each other. "A mere trick. I broke through it in three days."

Yun Zhi's eyes gradually became bloodshot, and the veins all over his body bulged.

A trivial skill?

Three days?
