Chapter 354: The Empress's Death
The dead look in Concubine Li's eyes startled Feng Xuanming. For a moment, Feng Xuanming was afraid to look into Concubine Li's eyes, so he chose to escape: "Zhuohua, you stay with Concubine Li. I still have someone else, so I'll leave first."
After Feng Xuanming left, the grayness in Concubine Li's eyes disappeared: "His personality really has never changed. It's ridiculous."
"Princess Ji, it's time for us to see Sun off for the last time."
After hearing these words, Concubine Li sat up straight and said, "Let's go."
The two of them left through the back door without being noticed by anyone. After all, neither Concubine Li nor Princess Zhuohua should appear in the cold palace.
In the cold palace, Sun Yuqin still refused to drink the poisoned wine and beat all the palace servants out. Due to the remaining power of the Sun family, the palace servants only dared to guard the door from a distance and did not dare to force the poisoned wine on her.
The door was opened again. Sun Yuqin felt someone coming in. She did not change her position on the ground and kept her head down. "My father is the prime minister. If you dare to feed me poison today, my father will definitely kill you. Unless this cup of poison was brought to me by the emperor."
Feng Zhuohua closed the door and Yi Qingchen walked in front of Sun Yuqin.
Sun Yuqin saw the familiar hem of the palace dress and looked up at the person who came: "It turns out to be Concubine Li. What, do you want me to die too?"
"Sun Yuqin, you owe so many lives, you have to pay them back!"
Sun Yuqin laughed, looking crazy: "Li Yu, who do you think you are? The emperor is just bewitched by you for a while. One day, he will kill you with his own hands. Love has never been anything in the emperor's heart. For an emperor, power is the most important thing."
Seeing Yi Qingchen didn't say anything, Sun Yuqin stood up and looked at her sarcastically: "Look, the emperor has been so kind to you for so many years. As long as you stand in his way, he will not show you any mercy."
Yi Qingchen smiled with a bit of contempt: "No one knows Feng Xuanming's true heart better than me. When he was vying for the throne, what he lacked most was the support of civil officials. Your Sun family is the leader of civil officials. In order to get your Sun family's help, he did not hesitate to turn against us and kill the entire Yi family. From then on, I saw through this person.
So I returned to this palace. I want to watch those who killed our entire Yi family die in front of me one by one."
When she heard her mention the Yi family, the smile on Sun Yuqin's face disappeared instantly: "How do you know those old things?" Then, Sun Yuqin's face was immediately filled with anger, "You are the remnant of the Yi family, and you actually hid in the harem for so many years."
Yi Qingchen walked around Sun Yuqin and said, "Let me guess, what are you thinking now? Do you think that if I tell others that I am a remnant of the Yi family, you can survive?"
Finally, Yi Qingchen stood in front of Sun Yuqin and looked directly into her eyes: "Sun Yuqin, don't you recognize me, my old friend?"
The word "old friend" was like a wake-up call to Sun Yuqin, waking her up instantly.
Looking at the eyes of the person in front of her, Sun Yuqin suddenly thought of Yi Qingchen's eyes, and an incredible thought came to her mind: "You, you are Yi Qingchen? But how come your face has become like this?"
Yi Qingchen raised his hand and touched his face: "If I hadn't changed my face, how could I have come back? Do you know how painful it is to change this face?"
"Impossible, Yi Qingchen is dead." Sun Yuqin was a little confused because of the sudden shock. "She jumped off the cliff. It's so high, how could she still be alive? You are lying to me, right?"
Yi Qingchen keenly heard something wrong in Sun Yuqin's words: "How do you know I jumped off the cliff?"
