Chapter 220 Dead
Xiao Fuguang walked towards the coffin step by step.
Looking down at him.
"Gu Chuan, don't worry, this time, I will trap your soul in Su Yan's body."
"This year, I've been researching day and night to find a way to seal the soul, and I've finally waited for this day."
As he spoke, he squatted down and took out a handful of talismans to block Su Yan's mouth.
Then he reached out to take the iron nails as big as chopsticks handed to him by Liu Yue. Xiao Fuguang raised his hand and personally nailed the nails one by one on Su Yan's knees, lower abdomen, shoulders, and chest.
In the snowy weather, beads of sweat rolled down Su Yan's forehead.
One sob after another that could not be suppressed.
“Wuwuwu… Wuwuwu…”
But because his mouth was stuffed with talisman paper, he couldn't even scream.
When Xiao Fuguang personally nailed the last nail into his forehead.
The blood from Su Yan's brain also splashed on her face.
Xiao Fuguang's eyes were filled with murderous intent, even colder than the falling snow.
Wen Ying and others couldn't help but take a step back.
From now on, no matter who you mess with, you must not mess with the princess.
If you offend others, the worst that can happen is a knife to your throat, and you can still be a hero eighteen years later.
But if you offend the princess, you may not even have a chance to be reborn.
All seven iron nails were driven into Su Yan's body. Su Yan's pupils were wide open and he died with his eyes open.
His clothes were stained with blood. Xiao Fuguang felt a sense of pleasure in his heart as he looked at his miserable condition.
"Close the coffin."
Wen Ying and others hurried forward to close the heavy coffin.
Xiao Fuguang took out a handful of talisman paper and pasted it all over the gaps in the coffin, making a complete circle.
Liu Yue took the rope and tied the coffin tightly.
Xiao Fuguang gave the order in a cold voice.
"Buried."
Wen Ying and others hurriedly lifted up the coffin, walked to a deep pit that had been dug not far away, and placed the coffin into the pit, which was a full foot deep.
Xiao Fuguang watched Wen Ying and his men fill the body with soil. "Gu Chuan, goodbye forever. I spent a year drawing these talismans. You will be trapped in this corpse forever."
As the mud covered her face layer by layer, Xuanyuan took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood off her face, and then wiped the blood off her hands bit by bit.
"Fuguang, it's over."
Xiao Fuguang nodded.
"It is indeed over."
"A Southern Border Saintess and Su Yan are really difficult to kill."
Emperor Xuanyuan spoke slowly.
"I will be leaving for my fiefdom tomorrow. Be careful when you return to the Imperial City. Although Su Yan is dead, Prince Rong still has many people trained by the Yao family around him. Try not to conflict with Prince Rong before I return."
Xiao Fuguang nodded slightly after hearing this.
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
In the palace.
Nanny Fang carefully poured hot tea for the queen.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor did not punish Concubine Li, but allowed Concubine Yao to serve the Empress Dowager."
The queen clenched the teacup in her hand and gave a sarcastic smile.
"The Emperor truly has deep feelings for her."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Fang analyzed the situation.
"I guess the emperor is doing this for Prince Rong's sake."
The queen took a slow sip of her tea.
"It's indeed because of Prince Rong. He's still like this, not trusting anyone."
"He is suspicious, selfish, cold-hearted, and self-righteous. When the Crown Prince was still alive, he supported Prince Rong in suppressing the Chen family."
"Now that the Crown Prince is gone, the Fifth Prince is registered under my name, and he has started to protect Concubine Yao everywhere."
"Forget it. We can't touch Yao Zhaoyi for the time being. Imperial Concubine Shu is keeping a close eye on her. We absolutely cannot let Yao Zhaoyi have a chance to do anything. Wait until Imperial Concubine Shu safely gives birth to the prince, and then we can let her slowly fight Yao Zhaoyi. Imperial Concubine Shu will not let go of the revenge for killing her son easily."
Shou'an Palace.
Yao Zhaoyi brought up a box of cakes with her men.
"Your Highness, I saw you ate little for lunch today, so I made you some plum blossom pastry. Please try it! It's made with plum blossoms that were just picked today."
As he spoke, he reached out and took a piece of plum blossom pastry and handed it to the empress dowager with a smile on his face.
The empress dowager looked at the plum blossom pastry in her hand, reached out to take it, and the warm feeling of the plum blossom pastry was transmitted to the palm of her hand.
"Just let the palace servants do these things."
"You don't have to do it yourself."
Yao Zhaoyi walked up to the Empress Dowager and held her shoulders with her hands.
"Your Majesty, I was born to serve you, and I should do all this."
"I have spent the first half of my life serving the Emperor. From now on, I will be content to serve the Empress Dowager."
As the Queen Mother ate the plum blossom pastry, the fragrance of plum blossoms filled her mouth. The taste was indeed good. It had to be said that Concubine Yao had a knack for making mooncakes and pastries over the years.
"You have been the emperor's favorite concubine for many years. Doing these things is really unfair to you."
"I also know that you are seeking asylum. Don't worry, for the emperor's sake, I will treat you with respect. Prince Rong is already grown up, and as his mother, you should also think more about him."
"The children in this palace are all the emperor's offspring. The royal family needs more children."
The Queen Mother was criticizing herself for the child of Lipin and Shu Guifei. Yao Zhaoyi hurriedly walked to the Queen Mother and knelt down.
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager. I know I was wrong and will never let anything like what happened before happen again."
As he said this, he raised his hands and swore to the sky.
"I swear to heaven today before the Empress Dowager that I will serve her for the next week and treat all the children in the palace as my own. If I ever harm the crown prince again, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager's expression eased slightly and she gestured to Yao Zhaoyi to stand up.
"Get up. Remember this from now on. There are many turbulent times in the harem. I understand everyone is vying for favor, but I am old and I also hope to see a harmonious harem with many children and grandchildren."
Yao Zhaoyi stood up and spoke respectfully.
"Yes, I understand. From now on, I will serve the Empress Dowager wholeheartedly."
Then he squatted down and massaged the empress dowager's legs.
"Your Majesty, I have noticed these past two days that you don't seem to sleep well at night."
The Queen Mother sighed helplessly.
"Alas, perhaps it's because I'm getting older, my sleep has become increasingly shallow in the past two years."
"Sometimes I always feel like I haven't gotten enough sleep. I feel groggy all day long. I've already asked the imperial physician to see me, but he couldn't find any problems. At most, he prescribed two doses of tranquilizers."
When Yao Zhaoyi heard this, a gleam flashed in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the ladies in the Imperial City are now wearing the calming talismans given by the Regent Princess. Many ladies who used to have trouble sleeping have been able to sleep through the night since wearing them. Because of the adequate sleep, the ladies' complexions are getting better and better!"
"How about inviting the Princess Regent into the palace for a cup of tea?"
