Chapter 177 Intimidation
Su Chenyu understood Concubine Shu's concerns: "Are you sure? If you lose, there will be no recovery."
"I have no control over my own life and death right now. If I am willing to fight for it, then I can be considered to be in control of my own life and death, right?"
When she said this, Concubine Shu felt a little relieved. Being able to fight for her and Su Siyi's fate was the only thing she could do.
The four words "being strong while being brave" are embodied vividly in Concubine Shu.
"Your Highness, Si Yi is also my younger brother. I will not let him suffer in vain." The corners of Su Chenyu's mouth curled up slightly.
When Concubine Shu looked at Su Chenyu's appearance, she suddenly felt a little happy in her heart. Perhaps it was because she had been oppressed for too long, and the consciousness of deciding to rise up and resist made her excited.
In the middle of the night, the Queen Mother lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
The window was blown open by the wind, blowing the Queen Mother's bed curtains, and the palace maids who were guarding the Queen Mother suddenly collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
The Queen Mother was awakened by a gust of cool air. She opened her eyes and found that the few candles left in the hall had been blown out by the wind.
"Someone, someone, come!"
The empress dowager called out several times, but no one answered. She became a little panicked and got off the bed. She took a few steps before she tripped and fell.
The Queen Mother fell to the ground. In the moonlight, she realized that she was tripped by a palace maid who had fallen to the ground.
"Ah..." Seeing the palace maid unconscious, the empress dowager didn't even dare to check her breath. She screamed loudly, thinking that the palace maids lying around her were all dead.
However, the Queen Mother's screams did not attract anyone, and the entire hall was very quiet, almost eerie.
"Is there anyone here? Is there anyone here..." The Queen Mother stood up tremblingly and wanted to walk out of the hall.
But after walking a few steps, she felt a chill on her ankle, and someone grabbed her ankle: "Ah..."
The Queen Mother was so frightened that she couldn't even make a sound. She lowered her head to look at her ankle. It was an invisible hand holding her ankle. Looking in the direction of that hand, the Queen Mother saw a face she didn't expect.
"Su Siyi" was lying on the ground with blood all over his face. He raised his head with great effort, and his voice was filled with great sadness: "Grandfather, why did you want to hurt me? Am I not your grandson?..."
The Queen Mother opened her mouth wide, her expression twisted, and she wanted to shout, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something.
"Su Siyi" slowly got up from the ground, and moved his hands upwards along the Queen Mother's ankles until he pinched the Queen Mother's neck with both hands. With just a little force, the Queen Mother could be strangled to death immediately.
Her hands were ice-cold, wrapping around her like a poisonous snake. The Queen Mother trembled, with nothing but fear in her eyes.
A smile suddenly appeared on "Su Siyi"'s face, but tears of blood flowed from his eyes: "I am your grandson, why did you come to kill me, why..."
The Queen Mother didn't know where she got the courage from: "I am sorry for you. Who asked you to block the way for others? Si Yi, the Grandfather will definitely burn more paper money for you. You can go down and don't come back."
Su Siyi's cold hands slowly pinched the Queen Mother's neck: "Then Zuxi, please come with me. The river water is too cold. With you around, it shouldn't be that cold anymore."
Upon hearing this, the empress dowager lost control of her lower body and fluid flowed all over the floor.
With her eyes rolled up, the empress dowager fell directly into the fishy liquid.
