Chapter 340 Ending
Nightfall!
Yuan Ziyu and Huo Xifei entered the palace under the cover of Qiongjiang Pavilion.
I don’t know if it’s because Huo Xifei has entered the Qiongjiang Pavilion more often, and the Qiongjiang Pavilion has also recognized him. Now Huo Xifei can also see the scene outside in the Qiongjiang Pavilion. This change makes Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu extremely surprised.
With Huo Xifei's guidance, Yuan Ziyu easily found Liu Zhaoyi's Yongfu Palace.
Yuan Ziyu drugged all the palace maids and eunuchs in Yongfu Palace, and then she and Huo Xifei quietly walked into Liu Zhaoyi's bedroom.
At this time, Liu Zhaoyi did not go to bed, but lit a candle and sat quietly in front of the dressing table in a daze.
However, after just a few days, Liu Zhaoyi no longer had the bright and beautiful appearance she had before. Her face without makeup looked sallow, and there were even many fine lines at the corners of her eyes. Even her hair was gray.
Looking at Liu Zhaoyi like this, Yuan Ziyu couldn't help but sigh softly. He had to admit that Liu Zhaoyi was really miserable now. But when he thought about what this family had done to Huo Xifei and the Su family, Yuan Ziyu couldn't sympathize with Liu Zhaoyi.
Everything in this world has a cause and an effect!
Yuan Ziyu's sigh startled Liu Zhaoyi, and her back stiffened suddenly. At this time, it was impossible for the palace maid to come in and disturb her.
Liu Zhaoyi slowly turned around and looked at Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyou in front of her. After a long moment, she smiled sadly and asked, "Were you the ones who killed my daughter Xiao'er?"
Yuan Ziyou neither admitted nor denied it, but simply said, "Whatever Liu Zhaoyi thinks, that's fine."
"Oh!" Liu Zhaoyi sneered, "As expected, my guess was correct. My daughter Xiao'er was murdered. I only hate that the Emperor is so foolish as to refuse to avenge Xiao'er!"
As she spoke, Liu Zhaoyi's hateful gaze shot towards Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu. Her eyes were filled with hatred, as if she wished to tear their bones and tendons apart and tear their bodies into pieces.
"We are here now, and Liu Zhaoyi can call for help!" Yuan Ziyu said with a faint smile.
"You are standing here now, can I still call for help?" Liu Zhaoyi was smart because she was able to compete with Empress Xuan in this palace before. She knew very well that even if she shouted at the top of her lungs, she would not be able to call for help.
"Zhaoyi is indeed smart, no wonder she has been favored for so many years!" Yuan Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Second Miss Yuan!" Liu Zhaoyi raised her chin, her face full of arrogance. "Are you mocking me? You've been favored for so many years, but when you're dying, you've lost your parents, your children, and your favor, with no one to save you?"
"It does sound a bit sad!" Yuan Ziyu said with a sigh.
"I don't need a young girl like you to sympathize with me!" Liu Zhaoyi seemed to be irritated by Yuan Ziyu's slightly sympathetic tone. She stood up suddenly and stared at Yuan Ziyu.
Huo Xifei had not spoken before and just stayed with Yuan Ziyu. When he saw Liu Zhaoyi suddenly stand up, he quickly stepped in front of Yuan Ziyu and stared at Liu Zhaoyi unkindly.
Liu Zhaoyi looked at Huo Xifei, then at Yuan Ziyu behind him, and snorted coldly: "Master Huo's love for Miss Yuan Er is really deep and loyal."
Yuan Ziyou walked out from behind Huo Xifei and asked, "Is Consort Liu envious?"
"Envy? Ha!" Liu Zhaoyi sneered, "What's there to envy? Men are all the same. When they pamper you and love you, they'd be willing to pluck the stars from the sky for you. But when they don't have you in their eyes, a speck of dust on the ground is more noble than you!"
As she spoke, Liu Zhaoyi began to cry, then hurriedly wiped her tears away. She stared at Yuan Ziyu with tearful eyes, "Second Miss Yuan, although Master Huo is deeply devoted to you today, there's no guarantee he won't become disenchanted with you in the future. Your future won't be much better than mine."
Although Liu Zhaoyi had fallen out of favor in the past few days, she also knew that Emperor Wen of Qi had recently appointed a noble concubine who was said to be very beautiful and had bewitched Emperor Wen of Qi. Now he was in the noble concubine's palace every night, and she was probably forgotten by Emperor Wen of Qi a long time ago.
"There's no need for Liu Zhaoyi to worry about that!" Yuan Ziyu replied indifferently. She understood Huo Xifei's feelings for her better than anyone else.
"Hmph!" Liu Zhaoyi snorted coldly, then looked at Yuan Ziyu: "Second Miss Yuan, are you here to take my life today?"
"Zhaoyi is a smart person!"
Liu Zhaoyi was silent for a moment after hearing this, then said, "Considering that I'm about to die today, can you please tell me why you want to harm my brother and my Xiao'er?"
"When Liu Zhaoyi sees them, you might as well ask them first why they want to harm us!" Yuan Ziyu said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaoyi gave Yuan Ziyu a deep look and smiled sadly, "Okay, I understand. Tell me, how do you intend for me to die?"
"Why don't you choose for yourself, Zhaoyi!" Yuan Ziyu said softly.
Liu Zhaoyi smiled faintly upon hearing this: "Thank you very much. Please allow me to dress up!"
"Please do as you please, Zhaoyi!" Yuan Ziyu nodded and said.
Half an hour later, Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu quietly left Yongfu Palace again.
Early the next morning, as the senior palace maid who served Liu Zhaoyi walked into the bedroom, she saw a figure hanging silently from the beam. Who else could it be but Liu Zhaoyi?
"Ah..." The senior palace maid suddenly let out a horrified scream!
Soon, the news that Concubine Liu had hanged herself spread throughout the palace.
Upon hearing the news, Emperor Wen of Qi rushed to Yongfu Palace. At this time, Liu Zhaoyi had been let down and was lying quietly on the bed. Her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque and she was dressed in gorgeous clothes. If it weren't for the purple and swollen marks on her neck, one would have thought she was asleep.
Emperor Wen of Qi looked at Consort Liu quietly for a long time, sighed deeply, and said to Eunuch Liu, "Pass on my decree to bury her with the ceremony of a noble concubine!"
Eunuch Liu quickly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Wen of Qi looked at the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes: "Send these people to serve the imperial concubine!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Oh, Your Majesty, spare me!"
The palace maids and eunuchs on the ground cried and begged, seeing that Emperor Wen of Qi had decided their fate with just one sentence. Unfortunately, it was all in vain.
With the death of Liu Zhaoyi, the Liu family, which once held great power in the court, finally came to an end.
It is said that Madam Liu dismissed all the servants, leaving only a few loyal ones, and took Liu Haozhe back to her hometown.
Upon hearing the news, Yuan Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly. In his previous life, Liu Haozhe was hacked to death in the street by Taifu Liu, but in this life, because of Liu Heng's death, Liu Haozhe saved his life.
Yuan Ziyu felt a little excited in his heart. The fate of the Yuan family in this life would definitely be completely different from the previous life!
