Chapter 253 The Queen Mother Killed the Adulterer with Red Eyes
This dirty damn man deserves to die!
Queen Mother Jiang was so overwhelmed by hatred that she felt dizzy. She wanted to kill this dirty man who had defiled her. She wanted to tear him into pieces!
With red eyes, she pushed the Second Young Master Zhao away and turned around to grab the sword from the guard!
"I kill you!"
"I'm going to kill you, you evil bastard!"
"I'm going to kill you!"
When the second son of the Zhao family saw this, he was so frightened that he immediately turned around and ran for his life.
He ran and shouted.
"Please spare me, Empress Dowager. It was you who asked Aunt Cui to call me to serve you in the garden pavilion. You can't blame me. It was clearly a matter of mutual consent between us, but you asked Aunt Cui to say that we were in love with each other and couldn't help ourselves!"
“…”
When Queen Mother Jiang heard this, she felt dizzy again.
no!
That's not the case!
She did these things to harm Shen Yuanwei, not herself!
She didn't know how things turned out like this tonight. She clearly wanted to ruin Shen Yuanwei's reputation. She shouldn't be the one to suffer such a misfortune!
Xie Junlin looked at the rampant Second Young Master Zhao with murderous intent in his eyes.
He motioned to the Dragonscale Guard.
"Take him down and leave him to the Queen Mother to deal with!"
The Dragon Scale Guards quickly captured the fleeing Second Master Zhao and brought him back to Queen Mother Jiang.
How can the good-for-nothing Second Young Master Zhao defeat the might of the Dragon Scale Guards?
He was caught like a little chicken, unable to struggle at all. Seeing himself getting closer and closer to the tip of Queen Mother Jiang's sword, he was so scared that he started to yell loudly without caring about anything else.
"Your Highness, you can't kill me!"
"I'm not a pervert and I haven't committed any crime. Why should I die?"
"I was staying at the banquet tonight, but it was you, the Queen Mother, who asked the maids around you to secretly ask me to come to the garden to make love with you. I just followed your and Maid Cui's advice. What crime have I committed?"
"I, Zhao Erjian, have only one life. Your Majesty can kill me if she wants. But if you kill me, how will your Majesty and the Emperor's reputation be saved if this matter gets out? You have already been accused of adultery. Do you want to be accused of taking human life lightly?"
"Your Majesty, you can kill me and the entire Zhao family, but you can't kill everyone present today, right?"
"Look at the huge crowd behind us. It's not just the Zhao family members here tonight. There are also countless ministers watching us!"
"Everyone has sharp eyes. Whether I deserve to die tonight and whether I am wronged or not, everyone knows it clearly. Queen Mother, you feel that I have abused you, but it is clear that you have harmed me, too. I am also a victim!"
"If the Empress Dowager and the Emperor unjustly kill an innocent victim like me, how can they stop the people from talking about it?"
Queen Mother Jiang clenched her sword tightly with trembling hands, staring at the eloquent Second Master Zhao in despair.
No matter how much she wanted to kill the villain who had abused her, she had to admit that he was right.
Everything that happened tonight was caused by her, it was not Zhao Er who took the initiative to commit a crime.
If she killed this bastard, all the men in the world would definitely sympathize with this bastard and would talk about her maliciously in private...
Those people would say that it was clearly her own lustful and lowly nature that made her unable to bear the loneliness and secretly wanted to find a man, and the man listened to her and slept with her, satisfying her, but she turned around and pretended to be a chaste heroine and killed the man unjustly...
Those men would say that she, a woman in her fifties, was lucky enough to be slept with by such a young man. She also killed people, and was simply a vicious woman...
There were even more vicious remarks that she didn't even dare to think of.
She even felt that the ministers were cursing her in their hearts for being lowly and deserving of death, and that she even wanted to kill others.
She staggered two steps and looked back at the ministers.
Although all the ministers looked calm, Queen Mother Jiang still felt that they were secretly cursing her.
She collapsed. She couldn't even hold the sword. She dropped the sword and collapsed to the ground. She covered her head and howled to the sky like a dying animal!
"ah--"
“Ahhhhh—”
Why is God so cruel to her, why!
Helpless tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, melting away her former pride bit by bit.
Until this moment, when she fell into the abyss, she finally felt a trace of regret in her heart.
Harming others will eventually harm yourself. This is her retribution, right?
If she had known this would happen, she would not have harmed Shen Yuanwei.
She regretted it, really. Wouldn't it be better for her to live her life quietly? Why did she have to find ways to hurt others?
She slowly turned her head and looked at Shen Yuanwei with tearful eyes.
The moment Shen Yuanwei's eyes met, the Empress Dowager suddenly showed a hint of fear.
She suspected that Shen Yuanwei was the daughter of heaven, and that God had been secretly protecting Shen Yuanwei.
Otherwise, why could Shen Yuanwei cure Xiao Lingzhao's strange disease that no one else could?
Why can't others give birth to a son for the emperor, but Shen Yuanwei can?
Why can Shen Yuanwei see through what the autistic Ayou is thinking without knowing what others are thinking?
She also fought with Shen Yuanwei twice, and both times ended in failure.
Four years ago, Shen Yuanwei stabbed her with a knife, but she was able to escape from her bedroom unscathed. This time, she wanted to ruin Shen Yuanwei's reputation, but in the end, she suffered the consequences and ruined her reputation...
Perhaps, there really are people in this world who are born God's favorites. No matter what happens, they can turn misfortune into good fortune, and no matter what they do, they can succeed easily.
If she continued to oppose Shen Yuanwei, she would probably only end up losing even more miserably...
"Her Majesty the Queen Mother—"
Seeing that Queen Mother Jiang was staring at her, Shen Yuanwei curled her rosy lips slightly and asked with a smile.
"Why are you looking at me like this? If you can't kill the innocent Second Young Master Zhao, do you want to kill me? Do you want me to be drowned in the pond?"
Glancing at Xie Junlin, whose face was gloomy, Shen Yuanwei did not directly attack Queen Mother Jiang. She just smiled faintly.
"I will not be drowned in the pond. Tonight, I am as pure as all the ladies present here. Your Majesty, no matter who you want to be drowned in the pond, it will not be my turn. Don't you agree?"
Queen Mother Jiang, who was already in despair, turned even paler.
Shen Yuanwei's words were so heartbreaking.
Shen Yuanwei said that she was as pure as all the ladies present. Wasn't this a metaphor that only the Empress Dowager was unchaste?
Also, the repeated word "Chentang" instantly reminded her of the words she had used to scold Shen Yuanwei.
Every word she said to Shen Yuanwei at that time now sounded like a slap in her face.
Everything went dark before her eyes, and she felt like her world was starting to shake and collapse.
She felt like everyone here was waiting for her to die.
She felt that those old-fashioned ministers hoped that she could be as chaste as she was when she forced others to do so, and die to preserve her reputation in order to correct the world's customs...
