"Master, what's wrong?" A maid-like woman saw Zhu Wanqing walk in with a gloomy expression.
"It's nothing. I didn't expect that he was already content with his current life and had no intention of fighting for that position anymore." A deep disappointment appeared on Zhu Wanqing's beautiful face.
"Master, you are now pregnant!" The maid was Zhu Wanqing's confidante and actually possessed martial arts skills.
"What's the use? If the Fourteenth Prince can't become emperor, what's the point of me giving birth to this child!" Zhu Wanqing said unwillingly. "I thought he would keep fighting for it, but now I've raised a useless person!"
Deep disappointment and resentment made the originally beautiful Zhu Wanqing look fierce, because her current life was not what she wanted.
"Master, if you're willing, you can use a curse on the Fourteenth Prince, then he'll be completely at your beck and call," the maid said.
Zhu Wanqing was taken aback; she had never considered this possibility regarding Fourteenth Prince. Gu poison was one of the most effective methods of controlling people. In the past, the White Lotus Sect frequently used this vicious method of Gu poison to quickly control its followers.
"Is the sect leader reluctant to part with it?" the maid asked, noticing the hesitation on Zhu Wanqing's face.
"If we cannot push him to become emperor, all my efforts will have been in vain," Zhu Wanqing said with a frown after suppressing any lingering softness she felt for the Fourteenth Prince.
“Master, you must not be soft-hearted,” the maid said.
"Leng Shuang, let me think about it some more. Go out!" Although Zhu Wanqing was somewhat hesitant, she still couldn't make a final decision.
"Master, please don't forget your identity," Leng Shuang reminded him before leaving.
Zhu Wanqing raised her hand and placed it on her abdomen, where the fruit of the Ming and Qing dynasties was located.
It must be a boy!
Zhu Wanqing thought to herself that if she didn't have the identity of a princess of the Ming Dynasty, perhaps she and the Fourteenth Prince would have been an ordinary couple, living happily ever after.
However, the princess of the Ming Dynasty, the teacher's teachings, and the followers who had been with him for more than ten years were all wholeheartedly hoping that he would lead them to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.
After several days of deliberation, Zhu Wanqing finally decided that she had to ignite the Fourteenth Prince's fighting spirit. And the only way to do that was through hatred. She wanted the Fourteenth Prince to hate Yongzheng, to hate him so much that he would have to go back and take everything from him.
Although Gu poison can control people, Zhu Wanqing still didn't want to use those things on Fourteenth Prince. After all, he was the father of the child in her womb.
Therefore, Zhu Wanqing sent a secret order to the remaining believers in the capital, which read: "In the fourteen prefectures, do not leave any survivors; kill them all."
She wanted to slaughter everyone in the fourteen prefectures, adults and children alike, leaving no survivors.
If the Fourteenth Prince knew that all his wives and children had been killed, he would surely believe that it was the work of the Yongzheng Emperor. Only in this way could he be enraged!
Consort Wanyan of the Fourteenth Prince's residence lived under constant surveillance, with the entire household under the care of the Fourth Prince, who stationed over a dozen imperial guards within the residence. While they did not interfere with daily life within the residence, Wanyan and her family were not allowed to freely enter or leave.
Wanyan had no idea that the Fourteenth Prince, whom she had prayed for day and night to return safely, might have already forgotten them completely.
A horrific massacre was about to unfold, but the people in the Fourteen Prefectures were completely unaware.
