Chapter 269 Details
Qu Ling, Pei Jingming and Zhao Yuanrong all secretly sent people to Yunnan.
"I didn't expect your people to be the fastest," Qu Ling said with a hint of ridicule in his voice, "Even my sister is left behind."
"I have more experience than you," Pei Jingming said, "I started doing this when you were still in Jiangzhou."
He took out a secret letter from his sleeve, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
"Yunnan King Yang Shao is indeed no ordinary person. He has been operating in Yunnan for many years and has long since become a local tyrant."
"The news was kept extremely secret over there. My people were almost exposed before I could barely find out Yang Yi's details."
Qu Ling opened the secret letter.
It turned out that Yang Yi came to the capital not to find a good marriage as he said, but because he could no longer stay in Yunnan.
"She has a very cruel temper," said Pei Jingming.
Qu Ling looked down and agreed very much.
In the second month after Yang Yi's mother married into Yunnan, Yang Shao took in two concubines.
One is the daughter of a general under his command, and the other is the daughter of the owner of the largest mine in Yunnan.
The two concubines each had children, but Yang Yi grew up with Yang Shao.
Whether out of guilt or to impress the imperial court, Yang Shao doted on his daughter without a limit.
The first person she killed was the child of a concubine in the mansion.
He pushed her directly down the stairs without even avoiding the servants.
Seven-year-old Yang Yi stood on a high step, looking down at the concubine below who was holding her stomach and groaning in pain.
"How can a lowly person like you be worthy of giving birth to a child for my father?" The childish voice was so cold that it made people tremble.
When Yang Shao rushed over after hearing the news, he was furious.
But he just beat the man up severely.
The second time was even worse.
At the banquet in the palace, Yang Yi, who was only ten years old at the time, tricked the girl from the concubine's family into a secluded corner of the garden and scratched the girl's face with a knife, leaving it horrible.
When the servants found her, the girl was already dying from excessive blood loss.
Yang Yi sat on the white jade railing beside him, swinging his legs and admiring his masterpiece.
The concubine lost her temper and cursed her as the reincarnation of an evil ghost.
The King of Yunnan was furious and beat her with a whip ten times. He then locked her up in the government dungeon for three months before releasing her.
After being released, Yang Yi was sent to the home of the most famous doctor in Yunnan to study medicine.
The King of Yunnan probably thought that saving people would make her less violent.
Hu Yingyue, stunned by what she heard, gasped, "What's the point of having someone like this study medicine? He shouldn't even be allowed out."
"Raising a tiger will only bring disaster." Qu Ling continued reading.
Yang Yi really didn't follow the right path.
There are many strange and poisonous animals in Yunnan.
She learned pharmacology and collected various prescriptions from quack doctors and prepared them herself.
First he tested the medicine on small animals, and then on the servants around him.
Until one year, more than a dozen beggars in the city died mysteriously one after another. Their causes of death varied but were all extremely painful.
So many people died that people were in a panic.
The King of Yunnan started to investigate and found out that his daughter was responsible.
In a rage, he killed Yang Yi's master and locked Yang Yi up in his mansion.
The maids and nannies in Yang Yi's courtyard all know martial arts.
Ordinary people can't keep an eye on her at all.
The King of Yunnan forced her to learn the rules and regulations and waited until she was old enough to marry her off.
"Crazy, this man is crazy." Hu Yingyue was horrified.
In the next few years, Yang Yi did behave well.
But the children in the mansion died one after another, and none of the pregnancies could be kept.
The two concubines only have these two sons and one daughter left.
Everyone suspected Yang Yi, but they had no evidence.
She seems very well behaved.
She would do whatever the King of Yunnan asked her to do and would never argue with her father.
Until last year, the second daughter of the mansion, Yang Xi, got engaged, but died when she went out to meet her fiancé.
Originally, that prominent family wanted to marry Yang Yi.
Yang Yi was unwilling and looked down on the legitimate son of that family.
The marriage still had to take place, so Yang Xi was allowed to get married.
Perhaps it was fate, but after meeting the young man, Yang Xi fell in love with him.
The two families were happily waiting to hold their wedding next year, but they encountered such a disaster.
The bodies of both men were found in a mass grave outside the city.
There is not a single piece of good flesh on Yang Xi's body.
The young man was even more miserable. His mouth was sewn shut with thick thread and his eyes were gouged out.
"Is she so capable?" Hu Yingyue sat up straight.
I'm not going to sneak into her house tonight and bury her too.
Qu Ling looked at the secret letter and said, "Before she entered the capital, the most trusted guard of the King of Yunnan, the number one swordsman Chu He, died. He committed suicide."
Unfortunately, the secret agents were unable to find out why he committed suicide.
Hu Yingyue held her chin in her hand and said dryly, "Could it be that Yang Yi and this Chu He had a private relationship, and Chu He was willing to kill for her, but when the affair was exposed, one of them committed suicide with a sword, and the other fled to the capital?"
"Yang Xi's death made the women in the backyard of the palace join forces to get rid of Yang Yi." Qu Ling had finished reading the secret letter and handed it to Hu Yingyue.
"Those two concubines and the other wives were determined to kill her, so Yang Shao sent her to the capital."
Hu Yingyue quickly scanned the secret letter and clutched her chest, "Fortunately, this hot potato didn't fall into the hands of the prince."
It's really brutal.
"Does Your Majesty know this?" Qu Ling asked Pei Jingming.
"I know part of it. Her Majesty is very busy. The movements of the King of Yunnan are enough to worry her. She doesn't have much energy to devote to Yang Yi alone."
The memorial sent by the King of Yunnan only said that Yang Yi was not on good terms with his illegitimate brothers and sisters.
"If I kill Yang Yi, will the King of Yunnan rebel?" Qu Ling's mouth was cold.
Pei Jingming's face didn't show much emotion. "If he wanted to rebel, he would have done so a long time ago. He wouldn't have waited until today."
Unless he joins forces with the royal family, the aristocratic families, and even the northern border to launch an attack at the same time.
If this is true, it doesn’t matter whether Yang Yi lives or dies.
"I will host a banquet for Yang Yi at the Princess's Mansion tomorrow."
She said to Hu Yingyue, "When you go out, bring more people with you."
Hu Yingyue now lives in You Ziyin's house.
After returning to the palace, Yang Yi smashed everything in the room like a madman.
"Girl, these are all given by His Majesty..."
"What? Are you going to complain and ask His Majesty to kill me?"
Yang Yi suddenly pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and poked the maid's arm, causing blood to flow.
She felt a burning anger in her heart that wouldn't go away.
"Go and bring me those beasts."
The maid ran out as if she was escaping for her life, not daring to look back.
Half an hour later, Yang Yi's door opened.
She held a thin-bladed knife in her hand, and drops of blood dripped from the blade onto the ground.
The ends of her hair were stained with blood, but her expression was surprisingly calm, even with a hint of contentment and ease.
The steward had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Seeing this, he immediately bowed and came forward with a flattering smile on his face, "Have you calmed down, young lady?"
Yang Yi said calmly, "Let's clean it up."
The steward nodded repeatedly and waved to the servants behind him to go in and clean up.
The servants walked into the room, and someone immediately covered his mouth and began to retch.
The house was a bloody mess.
Dead animals were lying all over the ground, all of them tortured beyond recognition.
Skinned and gutted, limbs twisted into strange angles.
A strong fishy smell hit him in the face. The manager tried hard to suppress his nausea, but he felt a chill in his heart.
What happened to this master today?
After bathing and changing her clothes, Yang Yi was still a dignified and reserved lady.
"Backup gift, I heard that Zhang Yun is sick, let's go see her."
A lowly person like Hu Yingyue is not worth dirtying your hands with.
