The emperor was bedridden and appointed Si Yicheng as regent to temporarily manage the government.
Prince Gu Changshi was still young, so he naturally went to school every day and also set aside some time to learn how to handle state affairs from Si Yichen.
Emperor Ying Tianhuang, lying on the hospital bed, glared at the woman in front of him with resentment in his eyes.
"I really underestimated you. I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and spared your life! If I had killed you earlier, this wouldn't have happened today."
Lin Fengmian sneered.
"When have you ever been soft-hearted towards me? When have you ever been soft-hearted towards those heroes who helped your Gu family seize power?"
"I owe my current situation to my own abilities. Ever since my parents and family members died, I've lived in constant fear. From time to time, a group of assassins would appear, wanting to kill me. I also had to be constantly wary of those around me, fearing that spies might sneak in..."
The way Emperor Ying Tian looked at her was as if he had poison in his eyes.
If looks could kill, she would have died a hundred or eighty times already.
Lin Fengmian raised his hand and slapped him in the face.
"What are you looking at? No matter how you look at it, the world is already part of my Lin family."
Another smile appeared on his face.
"You don't know yet, do you? My two children are not your useless brother's children. Nothing happened between him and me, so your Gu family is truly extinct."
"Oh! No, actually it's not really the end of the line. After all, your useless brother is still alive. I believe you will meet again soon."
Upon hearing that his brother was not dead, Emperor Ying Tian was both excited and worried.
I hope Brother Chuan can be smarter and escape from the clutches of this vicious woman!
Gu Qinchuan and his family came to Beijing, and as soon as they returned to Prince Liang's Mansion, they acted like the masters.
"Lin, you vicious woman, I'm back now, take your two evil children and get out of here!"
Lin Fengmian was not intimidated by his posture at all.
"Ah! My Lord, you are not dead. I am so happy to see you again."
Gu Qinchuan pulled Fang Panqiao, who was hiding behind him.
"How can you, a woman who is not faithful to her husband, be worthy of being my princess? Only a woman as gentle as Qiao'er is worthy of being my princess."
Lin Fengmian's tone was neither cold nor indifferent.
"Your Highness wants to divorce me! You keep saying I'm unfaithful to my husband. What evidence do you have?"
Is there any need for evidence? The twin bastards she gave birth to are the best evidence.
"Whether this King Lin has ever touched you or not, you know it in your heart. But please don't tell me that your twin offspring are King Mu's offspring."
Lin Fengmian stood up and kicked him to the ground.
"How dare these rude people impersonate His Royal Highness Prince Liang? Come, take them away."
"Ms. Lin, you are so bold that you dare to treat me like this."
Fang Panqiao also spoke softly:
"Sister Princess, please don't treat the prince like this. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have asked for the position of principal wife. Don't worry, I won't fight with you for it. As long as I can stay by the prince's side, even if I'm a concubine, I'll be content..."
Gu Qinchuan was extremely moved.
Look! Only a woman like Qiao'er who doesn't covet wealth and glory is the right candidate for his wife. A woman with a vicious heart like Lin is not even worthy of carrying his shoes.
"Lin, as long as you kowtow and admit your mistakes, I can give you a chance. Considering that your entire family is extinct, I can keep you in my mansion and give you a meal. Otherwise, when I see my brother, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy."
What a fool! Since I allowed him to come to Beijing without any worries, I must be sure that I can deal with him. But he is unaware of this and is still talking nonsense here.
Was she so foolish as to let a poisonous snake in to bring trouble upon herself?
Gu Qinchuan and his family were thrown into the cell while cursing.
At this time, they had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem and thought that Emperor Ying would definitely come to rescue them.
It wasn't until they saw someone familiar in the dark cell that they finally panicked.
At the same time, Emperor Yingtian finally passed away after being bedridden for a month.
Crown Prince Gu Changshi naturally inherited the throne.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, he issued a general amnesty. Many criminals in the dungeon had their sentences reduced, and some were even released.
Only the Gu Qinchuan brothers hugged each other and cried, cursing.
Emperor Yingtian, who should have been buried in the imperial mausoleum long ago, is now in a secret cell.
"Let me out, I'm not dead! Lin Fengmian, you are a thief, you will not die well."
I don’t know when Si Yicheng stood outside the cell.
When he saw him, the emperor immediately felt that his savior had arrived.
"Lord Si, I knew you would come to save me. That little bitch Lin Fengmian is so vicious that she actually dared to use a dead eunuch to be buried in the imperial mausoleum instead of me. When I get out, I will definitely skin her alive..."
Si Yicheng frowned slightly.
"So Your Majesty enjoys the feeling of skinning and pulling out tendons! Since Your Majesty enjoys it so much, as a subject, I should naturally oblige Your Majesty."
Emperor Ying Tian finally heard something wrong in his words.
"What do you mean by this, Si Aiqing?"
What does that mean? You'll find out soon enough.
Si Yicheng ordered his men to tie him up.
Seeing Emperor Ying Tian’s horrified expression, he took out a sharp little dagger.
"Lord Si, even you are going to betray me!!"
"I have never been loyal to you, so how can I say I have betrayed you?"
Si Yichen peeled the skin slowly and said a few words after each piece of skin he peeled.
"I used to have a very happy family, but one day the enemy entered the city and took the lives of my parents. I ran and ran for my life, not knowing where to go."
