Chapter 195: Let Zhao Yun become the most humble mute slave
Yun Xiangye was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a while, but she quickly pulled out a hairpin from her head, handed it to Ye Wanhe and said, "Sister, it's better to kill the Crown Prince once and for all than to cut the grass at its roots."
Seeing the hairpin handed over by Yun Xiangye, Ye Wanhe shook her head and said, "There's no need to kill him. I will poison him to make him mute, and let Ah Hong take him out and sell him to a human trafficker or a foreign trader in a remote village as a slave. I will also let him experience the pain of being separated from his parents and never seeing them again in his life. Only then can I relieve my hatred. Letting him die will be a good thing for him."
Yun Xiangye said: "But, sister, this is too easy to be exposed. Even if the Crown Prince is poisoned and mute, he can still write. He can write to let people know his identity."
Ye Wanhe was not as worried as Yun Xiangye. "Even if a mute slave could write, who would believe him if he wrote that he was the crown prince? They would just think he was crazy. Who would dare to help him pretend to be the crown prince?"
Yun Xiangye was somewhat worried. After all, Zhao Yun had been the crown prince for 24 years. He was not an ordinary person. "Sister, it is better to kill him today so that he dies without any evidence."
Ye Wanhe said to Yun Xiangye: "I couldn't bring myself to take his life, not because I had feelings for him, but because I didn't want to be like him and treat human life as worthless."
Yun Xiangye thought about it and realized that she had never killed an ant before. If she really killed Zhao Yun, she would probably have nightmares in the future.
Even though Zhao Yun had bullied my sister for a long time and deserved death, this was still murder...
After all, she and her sister grew up in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, in a commoner's family. They could not take people's lives at will like the powerful people in Chang'an.
Ye Wanhe looked down at Zhao Yun in her arms and said, "Making him the most humble mute slave and making him unable to recognize his parents for the rest of his life is enough to make his life worse than death."
"Ah Hong, come out."
Yun Xiangye saw the handsome young man coming out and looked at Ye Wanhe: "Sister, he is..."
Ye Wanhe said: "He is my adopted brother, and he is the commander of the underground palace of the Dasheng Imperial Palace."
Ye Wanhe said to Ah Hong: "Take His Highness back to the underground palace under the East Palace."
"Yes." Ah Hong replied.
Yun Xiangye saw Ah Hong bringing Zhao Yun into the underground palace. She frowned slightly and asked, "Is there a tunnel leading to the palace?"
"Not only can it lead to the Imperial Palace, it can also lead to any of the residences of princes and ministers. This is something that only Your Majesty and Your Highness know. Your Highness told me when I went out for fun before..."
Yun Xiangye heard this and said, "Then is this Ah Hong reliable?"
Ye Wanhe said, "He is reliable. He and his men can only help me in this matter. I went from the underground palace to drug His Highness. If they report this matter and are exposed to the public, they will never survive. Ah Hong is trustworthy."
Yun Xiangye nodded with relief, supported Ye Wanhe, and deliberately raised her voice and said, "Sister, don't be too sad. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone, and you still have Yu'er to take care of. Come back with me."
Ye Wanhe also pretended to be sad and painful, and followed Yun Xiangye out of the mausoleum.
Yun Xiangye actually admired Ye Wanhe a little. She was really shocked by Ye Wanhe's grief-stricken look and almost thought that Ye Wanhe wanted to commit suicide for love.
Yun Xiangye helped Ye Wanhe into the palace.
Ye Wanhe let Yun Xiangye sleep on the same bed with her, "Speaking of which, we two sisters haven't slept together for a long time. It was only when we were kids and tired from playing, we slept together during the afternoon rest."
Yun Xiangye recalled her childhood and said, "I really want time to stay at that time. My parents were still alive, my sister was very cute, and we were carefree except for being scolded by the teacher for not being able to recite the books. It was nothing like today, where we have so many worries..."
Ye Wanhe said: "Yes, it would be great if time could stop at that time, but unfortunately we can never go back."
Seeing the faint sadness in Ye Wanhe's eyes, Yun Xiangye smiled and consoled her, "Sister, Yu'er has been named the Crown Prince, and you will be the mother of the future emperor. The future will be very good for you."
Ye Wanhe thought of Yu'er, smiled faintly, and fell asleep. Pretending to be extremely sad for the past month also consumed a lot of Ye Wanhe's energy.
The next day, Ye Wanhe returned to the East Palace.
As soon as Ye Wanhe returned to the bedroom, she dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs, locked the door, and knocked on the door of the underground palace.
After Ah Hong came and opened the door, Ye Wanhe asked Ah Hong to guard the door while she went into the underground palace.
A bedroom inside the underground palace was brightly lit.
Zhao Yun slept straight and stiff on the bed.
Ye Wanhe stepped forward and pierced Zhao Yun's acupoint with a silver needle. Zhao Yun, who was originally asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
It took Zhao Yun a while to open his eyes and adjust to the light in front of him. He glanced sideways at Ye Wanhe and raised his hand with difficulty to hold Ye Wanhe's wrist.
Ye Wanhe dodged it.
Zhao Yun said with a self-deprecating smile: "It's a pity that you don't go to sing. These few days, I heard you crying beside me, and Jin Ye thought that you really loved me deeply..."
Ye Wanhe listened to Zhao Yun's weak voice, took a cup of tea from the side, and put a pill in the water.
When Zhao Yun saw the water that Ye Wanhe handed over to him, he bit his lip tightly, not wanting to be poisoned by Ye Wanhe again.
Ye Wanhe stretched out her hands and pinched Zhao Yun's cheeks hard, but couldn't open them. So she simply took a bite herself and leaned over to kiss Zhao Yun's lips.
It was just like when he fed Zhao Yun rice porridge with his lips these days.
Zhao Yun felt weak all over, but he still loosened his teeth.
Ye Wanhe fed Zhao Yun mouthful after mouthful of the liquid, then wiped the corners of her own mouth with a handkerchief, and also wiped the corners of Zhao Yun's mouth, "This is a drug that can make your throat mute. Now that Crown Prince Zhao Yun is dead, you will only have a mute slave dog in the future. When you regain some strength, Ah Hong will take you to the dock and sell you to a human trafficker going out of town."
Zhao Yun kept coughing and said, "Ye Wanhe, one day you will regret treating me like this..."
Ye Wanhe reached out and patted Zhao Yun's cheek, "You still call yourself lonely? There is no Ye Wanhe in this world, and there is no Zhao Yun either. You will only be a dumb slave dog, sold as a slave by human traffickers to the merchants you despise the most, to serve them."
Ye Wanhe reached out and held Zhao Yun's hand again, "Tsk tsk, what a pity, such a pair of delicate hands will have to serve others in the future..."
After Ye Wanhe finished speaking, she threw Zhao Yun's hand away in disgust.
Zhao Yun glared at Ye Wanhe and kept coughing. He vomited a bloody smell and it was very difficult for him to speak again.
When Zhao Yun saw Ye Wanhe's disdainful look, his heart was filled with heart-wrenching pain. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Wanhe in front of him.
It was ridiculous. She had been by his side for ten years, a full ten years, and they had slept on the same bed for six or seven years, but he had never really gotten to know Ye Wanhe...
Ye Wanhe looked down at Zhao Yun and said, "Dog, you don't have to look at me with such hatred. What I give back to you now is not even one ten-thousandth of what you did to me. Do you know the pain I felt when the child passed away from my body... You deserve what you have today!"
When Zhao Yun heard the word "dog", his eyes were full of fierceness as he looked at Ye Wanhe.
Ye Wanhe stared at Zhao Yun and chuckled, "Are you so angry when I call you a dog? Do you know how disgusted I was when you named me Pearl?"
After Ye Wanhe finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. Before leaving the bedroom, she turned back and looked at Zhao Yun deeply, and then returned to the bedroom without looking back.
Ye Wanhe arrived at the bedroom and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
From now on, she will take over all of Zhao Yun's power, but she can no longer recognize her own parents, nor can she get her first child back...
