Chapter 414 Qinyu knows who the murderer is who killed Consort Yue!
Seeing that she seemed to be serious, Zongzheng Yu'er immediately shouted, "No—!"
"Although I don't know exactly what happened that night."
"But I know who killed Consort Yue."
Duan Rongshi walked over and, without any mercy, grabbed her by the collar and pulled her close: "If you dare to utter a single falsehood, I will have your head chopped off today!"
Zongzheng Yu'er saw the ruthlessness in his eyes, and felt as if a thousand arrows were piercing her heart.
It turns out, he really didn't care about him at all...
Perhaps even a bit of disgust?
This fact was hard for her to accept.
But in order to save her life, she had to force herself to speak through her grief, saying, "It is Your Majesty the Empress."
"I overheard Crown Prince Duan Rongyin mentioning that there was someone by the Empress's side who could imitate the handwriting of anyone in the world."
“Even the handwriting of the Emperor of Great Chu can be imitated exactly, making it difficult for the emperor himself to distinguish.”
"I've been a princess of the Great Chu for over a decade, so when I heard this astonishing secret, I asked a few more questions."
"He was in a good mood at the time, and said that if it weren't for this person, the Consort Yue wouldn't have been able to be so easily brought down back then."
"I won't say anything more about the rest."
Duan Rongshi: "Who is this person? Do you have any clues?"
Zongzheng Yu'er: "I did investigate this person, and I even considered bringing him under my command."
"However, the Crown Prince and the Empress have kept this person's whereabouts very well hidden, and I have searched for a long time but have not found a single clue."
"But this person must be real!"
"Moreover, what they said makes me suspect that Consort Yue's death back then was related to some kind of letter."
The matter of Consort Yue was a taboo subject throughout the entire palace.
Duan Rongshi started by targeting Consort De, who ultimately chose to commit suicide rather than utter a single word.
He just went crazy, saying that everyone was the murderer who killed Consort Yue.
Duan Rongshi could use his methods to wipe out the entire harem, but he wanted to know the truth, to know what his mother had gone through back then.
Li Qingluo looked at Zongzheng Yu'er and said only one sentence: "You should have heard about their fate."
Zongzheng Yu'er's expression changed drastically.
If he hadn't heard Zongzheng Wuheng and Zuliya's screams, he wouldn't have been able to put on a calm and collected act and talk to them for so long.
These two are indeed ruthless.
They actually imprisoned Zongzheng Wuheng and Zuliya in this godforsaken place.
What's frightening is that they didn't kill the two men outright.
They were actually keeping it to torture people slowly.
Zongzheng Wuheng, as the sixth prince of the Great Chu, did all these things in Daliang in order to obtain some real things to take back and gain the favor of the Chu emperor.
But now, let alone being favored, he has completely lost the right to compete for the throne.
Not to mention whether they'll even make it back alive...
Zongzheng Yu'er could only quickly say, "I have already expressed my sincerity. Whether or not you want to cooperate depends on your sincerity."
Li Qingluo: "Why don't you tell me first, what do you want to get?"
Zongzheng Yu'er: "You—"
She really underestimated this village girl.
They managed to control themselves time and time again.
What's even more infuriating is that I was completely helpless and could only let her lead me by the nose.
We were really careless.
If I had known, I should have killed her back at Fu Man Lou!
He had been given such a good opportunity to kill Lei, but due to his arrogance, he has caused today's consequences.
How could Qin Yu not feel hatred in her heart?
"Your Excellency...Prince Su, is her intention also your intention?"
Duan Rongshi had already loosened Zongzheng Yu'er's clothes.
He deliberately feigned weakness towards her, but only coldly held her in his arms and stared at her before replying, "Yes."
"Tell me, what other tricks are you planning to pull?"
He knew all along what kind of person she was.
All these years, I haven't exposed her because of the secret she carries.
Zongzheng Yu'er took a deep breath before speaking, her voice trembling slightly: "Tricks? Duan Rongshi, in your eyes, am I, Zongzheng Yu'er, still somewhat special?"
"I'm clearly already in your hands, yet you think I still have any ability to turn the tide?"
"My Lotus Sect, my gambling den, weren't they all your doing?"
"I'm so stupid. Fifth Prince Yue, Consort Yue, Fifth Prince."
"But I just don't want to guess that it's about you."
Therefore, it was also Yue Wuye who destroyed Jingyun Manor.
And that ugly woman next to Master Yue is none other than Li Qingluo?
Looking back now, was I just a clown in their eyes?
It's both laughable and pathetic.
Over the years, she arrogantly believed that she had already manipulated the world at her fingertips and could compete for the world like those powerful figures, vying for a world that even a woman could control.
As a result, she ended up failing miserably.
"I just want to live."
"You helped me marry successfully in the Western Regions."
"I can help you expose the Crown Prince's true colors."
She has stated her conditions; whether they agree or not is up to them.
Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi returned to the small courtyard on the back mountain.
Duan Rongshi asked Li Qingluo, "Luo'er, what do you think of Qinyu's suggestion?"
Li Qingluo: "Zongzheng Yu'er is capable of accomplishing so many great things; she is no ordinary person."
"If we let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be endless troubles in the future."
"Moreover, as a soul from another world, she was able to do so many astonishing things in Daliang. In the Western Regions, she certainly wouldn't be content to just be an ordinary woman."
"She wants to make a comeback someday after she gets out of this mess."
Duan Rongshi patted Li Qingluo's little face with satisfaction: "Luo'er is already so smart, I can rest assured."
"However, we can make use of her."
"As for the other outcomes, we'll see how they end up killing each other."
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
Although I am not a kind person myself, these people are a scourge to the world.
Li Qingluo nodded, agreeing with what Duan Rongshi meant.
She looked out the window with worry, not at Qin Yu and the others, but at the bloodthirsty poison.
Midnight, the hour of Zi (11 PM - 1 AM), outside Wanjia Village.
Chickens fly, dogs howl.
The woman cried out, the man roared.
The baby is crying.
Screams, cries, screams, and calls for help echoed from the village at the foot of the hillside.
Zhuiyu rushed over to report: "Your Highness, the villagers of Wanjia Village are completely out of control."
"All the villagers have been poisoned. Every woman in the village seems to have a dog's nose and is rushing towards us, the normal men."
"The subordinates had no choice but to evacuate immediately."
Jin Hua: "Alan Aduo, hurry to the foot of the mountain."
"These young guards, I would like to trouble you to lend them a hand."
"Ideally, I should sprinkle these specially made powders at the village entrance and at all other places where people come and go."
“They will stay in the village for a while if they smell a stench they find repulsive.”
"Otherwise, this place would have been found very quickly as well."
The smell of the group of people gathered on the hillside was like a delicious feast for the villagers below.
Zhuiyu immediately led Ren, Alan, and Aduo down the mountain together.
However, confining them to the village resulted in them killing each other.
Everyone went mad; under extreme pain, they gradually lost their minds.
A perfectly good village was transformed into a living hell in the blink of an eye...
Everyone fell silent.
There was only deathly silence all around.
What's terrifying is that even the wind smells of blood.
Li Qingluo's pupils contracted sharply.
Tomorrow night at this time, it will be the time when the poison takes effect again.
She didn't find it scary that she became a demon all by herself.
The terrifying thing is that everyone in the village turned into ghosts tonight...
It's unimaginable what a catastrophe it would have been for the entire Liang Dynasty if Qin Yu had actually used this poison in the Qinhuai River!
"Bring them up!"
As soon as Li Qing finished speaking, Zuliya and Qinyu were pulled up.
Upon seeing the flames and horrific scene below the hillside, along with genuine cries and screams of pain, the two men's blank stares began to change slightly.
Seeing this scene, Qin Yu thought to herself: It really is a zombie virus! In any case, she really did fall for that old woman Zulia's trick.
Now the fire has spread to themselves, a consequence of their own actions.
Just yesterday, she had also been forced to drink the well water from Wanjia Village. The thought that she would end up like that in a few days filled Qinyu with despair.
"Where is the antidote?"
"Why haven't you developed an antidote yet? Are you all useless?"
No one answered Qin Yu's angry outburst, which was tinged with fear.
A sense of deathly stillness gradually settled over Qin Yu's heart.
If she had known this would happen, she should have actually put all that poison in the Qinhuai River.
If I'm going to die, I'll drag the entire Liang Dynasty and even the whole world down with me. That would be satisfying!
There was little remorse in Qin Yu's eyes; instead, there was a hint of madness.
Zulya, however, felt nothing.
Looking at her masterpiece, she knew she wouldn't survive, so there was only a faint excitement in her eyes.
What a pity that Zongzheng Yu'er, that fool, didn't put the poison in the Qinhuai River.
Otherwise, even if she suffers a lot, it will all be worth it today!
Until the butterflies were also brought up.
Furthermore, to prevent her from uncontrollably lunging at and hurting people if she smelled men, her hands were tied and her mouth was gagged.
He looks like another prisoner.
When Zuliya saw her, he was able to keep his composure at first.
Until Jinhua's face was gradually revealed in the firelight.
Zulya's expression changed drastically in an instant: "How did you get here!?"
She quickly looked at the butterfly, then at Jinhua.
At this moment, I already had a guess in my mind.
She couldn't help but scream in a low voice, "What do you want to do with her?"
