At this moment, a strange memory rushed into Su Liyue's mind.
She…had actually traveled through time! She had become Su Liyue, the Princess of the Zhan Palace—but only in name only.
Five years ago, the original owner, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was brought back from the countryside to marry her sister, the War King Ye Cangming, who had been wearing a mask since childhood due to disfigurement, and later had a disabled leg for two years and had not appeared in public for a long time.
On the wedding night, the War King stood up under the surprised gaze of the guests.
But the original owner was found lying in the marriage bed with a servant in disheveled clothes.
Not only that, War King Ye Cangming's junior sister Ji Xiaohe was lying in the house with a bleeding head, looking miserable.
The original owner didn't even know what was happening before she was pulled off the bed and thrown to the ground. She was then whipped and sent to the royal nunnery overnight, becoming an abandoned concubine of Prince Zhan's palace for a full five years.
As for why he fell off the cliff after being hit by the death powder - thinking of this, a cold look flashed across Su Liyue's eyes.
The original owner stayed in a nunnery for five years, and the War King Ye Cangming went to the border a few days after marrying the original owner, and was away for five years as well.
During these five years, as an abandoned concubine of the royal family, Su Liyue had a very difficult time in the nunnery, and she looked forward to returning to the capital every day to explain what happened.
Yesterday, the original owner finally heard the news that the War King had won and was on his way back to Beijing. She felt that hope had been brought to her, but she never expected that two old nuns would force her to drink the Death Powder and throw her body on a cliff.
He was safe and sound for five years, but was killed when the King of War was about to return to Beijing. She didn't believe that there was no trick.
Thinking of this, Su Liyue changed direction and headed towards the nunnery.
…
The Royal Nunnery is located on Xuanfeng Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing. Unlike the royal temples that are bustling with worshippers, the Royal Nunnery is a place for meditation and is therefore located in a relatively remote area.
At this moment, it was late at night and the Royal Nunnery was silent.
Huijue was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt a sense of oppression and woke up from his sleep.
When Huijue saw the face of the person in front of the bed clearly through the moonlight, his eyes were suddenly filled with fear, "You...are you a human or a ghost..."
Su Liyue sneered: "It's the evil ghost who came to seek your life."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab Huijue's neck, and his hand gradually closed, and the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
Huijue is the nun in charge of this nunnery. She usually has a stern face and is a model of fairness and justice in the nunnery.
And all this is just appearance.
It can be said that most of the suffering the original owner endured was instigated by Huijue.
The two old nuns who fed her the death powder this time were brought by Huijue.
Huijue is the mastermind.
When Huijue thought he was about to be killed by a ghost, Su Liyue suddenly exerted force, threw Huijue under the bed, and stepped on Huijue's chest, "Tell me, who told you to kill me?"
Huijue felt pain and cried out "ouch", but happened to see a shadow in the moonlight beside him, and his eyes flickered involuntarily.
"I, I say, let me go first." Huijue looked compromising.
Hearing this, Su Liyue loosened her feet.
Seeing this, Huijue stood up and tried to escape.
Su Liyue would never give her this chance. She simply raised her foot and kicked Huijue in the butt.
With a loud bang and a scream, Huijue fell flat on his face.
Then, Su Liyue picked up the Jianzhi next to the wooden fish and used the back of it to pierce Huijue's several acupuncture points quickly, accurately and fiercely.
Huijue only felt a spasm in his body, and then pain swept through his whole body.
"If you don't tell me, you can just wait to die in pain." Su Liyue looked coldly at Huijue who was curled up in pain.
"I, I said..."
Huijue was really afraid of the pain, so he said, "Yes, it was Miss Shangguan. Because, because of the Queen Mother's decree, the day that Prince Zhan returned to the capital would be the day he would marry her. You—you blocked Miss Shangguan's way…"
Shangguan Ruoning!
After Su Liyue heard Huijue's words, this name immediately appeared in her mind.
It is said that everyone in the capital knows that Shangguan Ruoning is the one beloved by the War King Ye Cangming, but the War King has been engaged to the Prime Minister since childhood.
But even so, Shangguan Ruoning was still deeply in love. Even though the War King Ye Cangming was disfigured and lame, Shangguan Ruoning did not despise him. Instead, she devoted herself to learning medicine for him, which moved the world.
Even if the War King married, Shangguan Ruoning still remained unmarried and stayed by his side.
Just putting aside morality and talking about infatuation? Isn't she still a mistress? A vicious mistress who wants to kill her.
In that case, Su Liyue would not do as she wished.
Thinking of this, Su Liyue walked towards the door.
Seeing this, Huijue panicked and quickly crawled forward, "King, Princess, please spare this old nun..." She was really in so much pain.
Upon hearing this, Su Liyue turned and looked at Huijue, her eyes cold and unconcealed. "Not killing you is the greatest forgiveness I can give you."
If this place was not a pure Buddhist place and a nunnery of the royal family, if she started killing people here, it would inevitably bring unnecessary trouble, and she would not want to keep her life.
After saying that, Su Liyue turned around and left without caring about Huijue's desperate and resentful look.
However, what Su Liyue didn't know was that just as she left, a figure quietly appeared in Huijue's room...
——
"Prince Zhan and Miss Shangguan are finally getting married!"
"Yes, I heard that the Queen Mother ordered the wedding sedan chair to go directly to the Prince's Palace. I just don't know if Prince Zhan is strong enough to attend the ceremony after three days of recuperation."
“…”
The streets and alleys were filled with discussions like this, and everyone's face was filled with joy.
