Chapter 181 Death of Liu Shihan
A few days later, the setting sun was as red as blood, making the entire cold palace look even more eerie and dilapidated.
Shen Yuning stepped into this desolate land. There was a smell of decay all around, as if even the air was telling of the desolation of this place.
Liu Shihan was curled up on the washed bleached mattress, looking haggard and disheveled.
Hearing footsteps, she slowly raised her head, and the moment she saw Shen Yuning, resentment flashed in her eyes.
He sneered and said, "Oh, isn't this the extremely noble Empress? Why have you come to this cold palace? Are you here just to see me make a fool of myself?"
Shen Yuning's gaze fell on Liu Shihan, her eyes calm, as if she was looking at a lifeless object.
She took a step forward, Xitong took out a piece of brocade handkerchief and placed it on the worn stool beside her, and then Shen Yuning slowly sat down.
"Yes, you are right. I came here today to see the miserable state of my defeated general."
The corners of Shen Yuning's mouth rose slightly, but the smile did not reach her eyes, revealing a hint of coldness.
"But there is something more important here. Why don't you guess what it is?"
Liu Shihan looked at Shen Yuning's smiling tiger-like expression, and a chill inexplicably surged in her heart, and cold sweat unconsciously emerged from her forehead.
She really couldn't understand why this girl, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, had such a cruel ability to scheme against people.
Can manipulate everyone in the palm of his hand!
"What do you want to do?"
Liu Shihan's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of fear.
Shen Yuning sneered.
"Of course I want you to die."
Her voice was icy cold, like a verdict coming from the Netherworld.
Liu Shihan was one of her targets of revenge, so simply imprisoning her was certainly not enough for Shen Yuning.
She had no intention of attacking Liu Shihan's eldest and third princes, which was considered to be the most benevolent thing she could do.
If Liu Shihan is not killed, do we have to wait until the eldest prince and the third prince grow up and then stage a farce to rescue their mother?
Liu Shihan's eyes suddenly widened, with a look of fear and anger in her eyes.
"Your Majesty has not ordered my execution, so why are you killing me? And why do you dare to kill me?"
She screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Tomorrow, I will go south with Your Majesty to understand the people's sentiments. It will take at least half a year to go back and forth. By the time of the New Year, Your Majesty will not even be able to see your body that has already rotted away."
"In this case, why would I not dare?"
Shen Yuning's tone was flat.
Although these words were so vicious, they sounded nonchalant when spoken by Shen Yuning, as if Liu Shihan's life was nothing more than an insignificant ant in her eyes.
Liu Shihan suddenly lost her voice and said, "Shen Yuning! You are a devil with a heart as vicious as a snake and scorpion. If His Majesty knew that you are so vicious, he would definitely hate you and spit on you!"
Shen Yuning sneered.
Who cares?
"Liu Shihan, before you die, I will tell you that I never worry about whether a man loves me. I only worry about whether I will betray him and whether he has the ability to tie me down and make me love him willingly."
"I am beautiful, but I am not a vase that can be manipulated by others. I am not short of money, and I have a family background that people are eager to pursue. There are many people who are willing to treat me well. I deserve to die if I shed a tear of true love for someone who doesn't love me, but I never seek death."
Liu Shihan was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
In the dead silence, the door was slowly pushed open with a creaky sound, and a palace maid holding poisoned wine walked in.
When Liu Shihan saw the palace maid approaching her step by step, her instinct for survival was instantly aroused.
Even though she was now imprisoned in the cold palace, demoted from the high and mighty Zhaoyi to a commoner, she had never thought of death.
She also has the eldest prince and the third prince. As long as the children grow up and hold power, she firmly believes that she will have the opportunity to see the light of day again and take back everything that belongs to her.
But now, fear overwhelmed Liu Shihan like a tide, and she shrank back into the bed desperately, as if this could help her avoid the approaching death.
However, no matter how she struggled, she could not escape the ruthless control of fate.
At the moment when the palace maid forced the poisoned wine into her throat, Liu Shihan used up her last bit of strength and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Shen Yuning, you will not die well..."
She was filled with resentment.
Shen Yuning followed His Majesty south, and the assassins she arranged were still waiting in the dark for an opportunity to strike.
Shen Yuning will come down to accompany her soon!
Liu Shihan widened her eyes, filled with resentment and resentment.
After the maid finished drinking the wine, she left.
Shen Yuning stood up and walked to Liu Shihan's side.
Although Liu Shihan's eyes were open at this time, her breath was weak and she was about to reach the end of her life.
Shen Yuning gently raised her hand, stroked her hair, and said calmly, "Will you not die a good death?"
"Unfortunately, no matter how I die in the end, it will only go according to my own arrangements. You don't need to worry about this."
Liu Shihan was confused and didn't understand what Shen Yuning said at all.
Shen Yuning's behavior is really too horrible.
What normal person would plan his own death?
But now, she no longer has the chance to find out the truth.
Shen Yuning looked down at Liu Shihan, with a cold look in her eyes that showed she knew everything: "Don't worry, the next person to accompany you will be your sister who has helped you a lot."
"Liu Shihan, have you ever wondered why your sister knows so many secrets that even you don't know?"
Shen Yuning paused slightly, a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Oh, that's true. As a vested interest, you naturally don't care where the news about your sister came from."
"But now, I want to return the perfect life that you and your sister have stolen to your place. Why not?"
At this moment, Liu Shihan was extremely weak. Her vocal cords seemed to be strangled by death. She could no longer utter a word and could only blink her eyelashes desperately.
There was fear and confusion in his panicked eyes.
In Liu Shihan's eyes, Shen Yuning was like a devil from hell, not a human being at all.
Like Liu Jingyi, she seemed to know some mysterious things that ordinary people could not touch. Their existence was like the cold palace, revealing a frightening abnormality.
Liu Shihan has always been afraid to offend Liu Jingyi, but also hopes that Liu Jingyi can help her more, so she meets all the requests made by Liu Jingyi.
Could it be that Shen Yuning came to the harem specifically to take revenge on Liu Jingyi?
Countless doubts were tangled in Liu Shihan's mind, but she never had the chance to ask.
Shen Yuning wanted her to die in obscurity, and to go to the underworld with a heart full of confusion and resentment.
As the last breath slowly escaped from Liu Shihan's mouth and nose, Liu Shihan completely stopped breathing.
At this moment, Xitong, who had been standing quietly by the side, suddenly became empty and lifeless, as if she had instantly turned back into a cold system.
He said seriously, "Congratulations, host. Liu Shihan is dead. One third of the mission is completed. Please keep up the good work, host."
Shen Yuning turned her head slightly and glanced at Xitong indifferently.
Liu Jingyi and Feng Moheng were not far away.
She wanted to speed up the process, not only to get the three wishes promised by the system as soon as possible, but more importantly, she was eager to know what memories she had lost.
Why did she come to this world before?
Since she had been here before, why didn't she find the person she was looking for, and instead lost her memory?
Shen Yuning wants to know the whole truth, instead of being bound by the so-called system and blindly completing tasks while losing her memory.
