Chapter 64: Sent to Yulu Temple
Ling Chan walked up to Ruan Yiyu and slowly squatted down, "Of course I am! I'm very satisfied!"
"It's just the beginning, and you can't stand it?"
"Ruan Yiyu, Ling Xuehui deserves to die, Ling Xueyao deserves to die even more, and you, Ling Yu, and Ling Rui too! Don't worry, I won't let any of you go."
Ruan Yiyu's pupils gradually dilated. "What do you want to do? You can't, you...can't."
"Yu'er is still young, Yu'er is still young, he doesn't understand anything, and he has never hit you."
Ling Chan raised the corner of her mouth sarcastically, "He never hit me, but he did frame me and scold me a lot."
"If he hadn't pinned some unfounded accusations on me, how could you have had any reason to punish me?"
"Ruan Yiyu, God is watching what you do. Whatever you did more than ten years ago...cause of karma, now it will be repaid to your children..." Ling Chan looked at Ruan Yiyu's expression carefully.
Ruan Yiyu's black pupils enlarged noticeably, and she avoided Ling Chan's gaze guiltily.
Ling Chan continued, "Ling Xueyao and Ling Xuehui's fate is all because of you."
"You killed them!"
"No, no." Ruan Yiyu covered her ears and shook her head desperately, not daring to look at Ling Chan. "It's not me, I didn't... No..."
"yes..."
"Princess, you're back." Nanny Qu's voice suddenly rang out.
Ling Chan slowly stood up and turned to Madam Qu. "Madam Qu is here. Does the Queen Mother have any instructions?"
Aunt Qu looked at Ruan Yiyu with pity in her eyes. "The Empress Dowager has decreed that Ling Xueyao has committed a grave sin by killing her own sister. She will be sent to Yulu Temple in three days. From then on... she will be accompanied by green lamps and ancient Buddhas, spending her life by the morning bells and evening drums."
"Mrs. Ling is under house arrest. She should reflect on what she can do and what she can say... Stop being foolish."
Ruan Yiyu trembled as she adjusted her posture and knelt before Madam Qu. "Your servant will obey the Empress Dowager's order."
Being sent to Yulu Temple is better than being in prison. Although life is hard, there is room for improvement.
If the emperor issues a general amnesty, or if Ling Rui has made meritorious contributions, Ling Xueyao may be pardoned.
"Also... Ling Xuehui's funeral should be kept simple."
Ruan Yiyu spoke with a heavy nasal tone, suppressing all her reluctance and saying, "Yes."
After lunch, Ling Chan asked Gong Lan to prepare a bottle for the potion, and then filled it with pool water from the space.
"Gong Lan, take this bottle of potion to the Liu residence."
"Tell General Liu to add two drops of this to his tea every day."
If he drank it directly, it was estimated that just a few sips would be enough to heal Liu Hong's old injury.
But that would expose the magic of the pool water, so it must be diluted.
After Gong Lan left, Ling Chan asked Hongdou and Gong Yu to go downstairs to rest, while she took out her surveillance glasses and began to look through the records from the early morning.
She had to see why Ling Xueyao stabbed Ling Xuehui to death.
Back to last night...
Ling Xueyao sat by her bed like a soulless doll, accompanied by her maid Qu Lian.
Qu Lian looked like she wanted to comfort Ling Xueyao, but she moved her mouth several times but said nothing.
This went on until the end of the Yin hour, which was about five in the morning, when Ling Xuehui suddenly came to Ling Xueyao's room.
She sent Qu Lian away, saying she came to comfort her sister.
Qu Lian probably thought it was a good thing for the two sisters to comfort each other, so she left with peace of mind.
Ling Xuehui sat down next to Ling Xueyao and whispered, "Sister, do you think...Will Prince Huai like me?"
Ling Xueyao was stunned and did not react.
Ling Xuehui reached out and tucked the hair by her ear. "Sister, don't be sad. Although Zeng Hongbao is not as good as Prince Huai."
"But no matter what, he is still the son of Zeng Fu, the commander-in-chief of the imperial court."
Zeng Fu, the commander-in-chief of the palace, was a second-rank official.
"Even though she's just a concubine, as long as you can capture Zeng Hongbao's heart and make him obey you, then what difference does it make whether she's your legal wife or not?"
"Sister, why don't you tell Hui'er what Prince Huai likes?"
"Sister, I'm about to become King Huai's concubine. Even though I'm just a concubine, I'm confident that King Huai will look at me differently."
"Sister, you don't know that Hui'er has always liked Prince Huai."
"But King Huai only has eyes for my sister..."
"Now it's all good. Hui'er finally got what she wanted and can become King Huai's woman."
Ling Chan looked at Ling Xuehui in the picture. She said these words to Ling Xueyao at this time because she was afraid that Ling Xueyao was not sad enough?
How could this be comfort? Every word was clearly a stab to Ling Xueyao.
"Okay?" Ling Xueyao finally responded. She slowly raised her stiff neck and looked at Ling Xuehui in disbelief. "Are you okay now?"
"Even if you entered Prince Huai's mansion, you would only be the lowest-ranking concubine in the mansion, an ant-like existence. How can you call this good?"
Ling Xuehui rolled her eyes at Ling Xueyao and said, "Sister, don't say such harsh words."
"Sister, if you enter the Zeng Mansion, won't you also be a concubine?"
She turned her head away angrily, "Still a concubine...who is no longer a perfect concubine."
Ling Xuehui sneered coldly after she finished speaking, "I have always regarded my sister as a role model, but I never thought she would be such a shameless person."
"Ling Xuehui!" Ling Xueyao stood up angrily, but fell to the ground because her legs and feet were numb from sitting for too long.
Ling Xuehui looked down at Ling Xueyao, her eyes filled with disdain. "But...if it weren't for what happened to my sister, how would Hui'er have had the chance to enter Prince Huai's Mansion?"
"Speaking of which, Hui'er should be thanking her sister."
At this point, Ling Xuehui smiled again, "No, maybe I should thank Ling Chan."
She looked up with a delighted expression, "I knew that the maid was unreliable."
"Sure enough, it didn't work, haha."
Ling Xueyao looked up in surprise, "Huier, what did you say?"
Her eyes were filled with shock, she couldn't believe that the person in front of her was her own sister, "Are you saying that you knew it wouldn't succeed?"
Ling Xuehui smiled and didn't answer her.
Ling Chan remembered that when Ruan Yiyu and Qiu Lan were plotting that matter, Ling Xuehui did point out that it was unreliable to ask others to do it.
However, Ruan Yiyu and Qiu Lan were afraid that if they stepped forward and soiled Ling Chan's clothes, Ling Chan would notice something was wrong, so they insisted on letting Caihui do it.
Ling Chan looked at Ling Xuehui through the screen. This Ling Xuehui was much smarter than Ling Xueyao.
Ling Xuehui turned her back to Ling Xueyao and said, "Sister, every time Prince Huai comes to see you, I feel sad..."
"Before, I envied you so much..."
"But it doesn't matter. From now on, I will be the one entering Prince Huai's Mansion..."
"elder sister."
Ling Xuehui turned around, but she didn't expect that Ling Xueyao behind her had touched the scissors in the needlework basket and stabbed them into her chest.
"Sister, you..."
Ling Xueyao's facial expression was distorted and extremely hideous.
"Ling Xuehui, you want to enter Prince Huai's Mansion...dream on."
"I, Ling Xueyao, can't get in, so you can forget about getting in either."
She ignored Ling Xuehui's struggling hands for help, raised her bloodied hands and spun happily in circles, "Hehehe... I am Princess Huai, Princess Huai! Princess Huai! Hehe..."
When Qu Lian heard the noise inside, she rushed in. When she saw the situation inside, she was scared to death.
"Ah..." Qu Lian's cry resounded through the sky...
