Chapter 510: Mission Accomplished



"Your Highness, please don't be impulsive..."

The Fourteenth Princess looked at Aunt Duo with sparkling eyes and curled her lips: "Don't worry, Aunt, I won't be impulsive."

"Your Highness, you are really making me uneasy. Are you going to harm the Empress tomorrow?"

The Fourteenth Princess lowered her eyes and stared at her hands, her tone cold: "She killed my mother, shouldn't I take revenge?"

"Your Highness, when the Queen travels, she is always accompanied by many people. Even when she comes to visit you, there will be no shortage of people waiting on her. You are ill, do you really want to rely on brute force? If so, I'm afraid you will fail before you can do anything. How can you be worthy of the motherly love of the beauty?"

Princess Fourteen covered her face and cried, "Apart from this sick body, what else can I do?"

The girl's sobs echoed in the room, getting farther and farther away as the curtains swayed.

"Have you ever thought of using poison, Your Highness?"

The Fourteenth Princess stopped crying and looked at Aunt Duo.

Aunt Duo is already middle-aged. She looks kind, but the words she speaks lightly reveal an inexplicable chill.

"Use poison?" Princess Fourteen looked confused. "I have a set schedule for every penny I spend. Where can I get poison from?"

Nanny Duo took something out from her sleeve and handed it over.

It was a very small jade box, and looked ordinary.

Princess Fourteen looked at her in confusion.

"There is a poisonous insect in here. As long as it finds an opportunity to enter the human body, it won't take long for that person to slowly show symptoms of heart failure, and eventually die of heart failure. Even the doctors won't be able to see any clues. In this way, Your Highness can both seek justice for your mother and get away with it. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

Princess Fourteen stared at the small jade box and murmured, "Why did Nanny help me like this?"

Grandma Duo's eyes sparkled: "I have an adopted daughter who used to work in Kunning Palace. Because she complained a few words in private and the Queen heard about it, she was quietly punished by the Queen. Like Your Highness, I want to seek justice for my poor adopted daughter."

The Fourteenth Princess's slender white fingers fell on the jade box, her eyes filled with surprise and fear: "How do I use this poisonous insect?"

"It's very simple. All you need to do is find a small wound on the target's hand..." Aunt Duo's voice was seductive.

Princess Fourteen finally held the small jade box and said softly, "Is this all right?"

The sound of footsteps was heard, and the curtains were drawn aside. Emperor Jingming and the Empress appeared in front of Nanny Duo hand in hand.

Nanny Duo was stunned and subconsciously looked at the Fourteenth Princess.

The Fourteenth Princess held the jade box tightly and walked towards the Queen.

"Mother—"

The queen patted Princess Fourteen's arm gently and pulled her behind her: "Fourteen did a great job."

The Fourteenth Princess smiled as if relieved of a heavy burden, leaned against the palace maid, panting slightly, and said word by word: "I am lucky to have fulfilled your mission."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Aunt Duo, who still hadn't come to her senses, and burst into tears.

She knew that her mother was guilty.

That day, her father and mother came to her place, and then her mother passed away. She wanted to ask her mother the real cause of death countless times, but all she received was evasive and disgusted looks.

Finally, the day came when her mother sent someone to reprimand her and told her the truth about her mother's death. Only then did she know what had happened.

It turned out that her mother was the one who caused her thirteenth sister to go blind, and was also the murderer who killed her fifteenth sister.

Although she didn't want to believe such an unbearable truth, she knew it was true.

She had accidentally heard her mother complain a long time ago.

At that time, she was ill and fell asleep in her mother's arms. Her mother held her tightly and whispered, "It's all because of Princess Fuqing that my son's fortune was taken away. It would be better if Princess Fuqing died..."

Her mother's bitter tears dripped onto her face, but she had already woken up but didn't even dare to tremble her eyelashes.

Such words were too horrible. She couldn't imagine how her mother would react if she knew she heard them. She just pretended she didn't hear them. Her mother was just feeling sorry for her and she was just saying them in anger.

But these words took root in the Fourteenth Princess' heart. When the truth was revealed to her, she had no reason to question it.

The Fourteenth Princess felt both resentment and hatred. She resented her mother for being foolish enough to believe such nonsense and harm others, which ultimately led to her losing her life. She hated the person who instigated her mother even more.

This person is the culprit behind all of this. Finding this person is the true revenge for my mother.

The Fourteenth Princess held the jade box, her hands shaking.

She had no idea how she had performed the scene just now, she just felt that it had exhausted all her energy.

She did it, she really did it...

The Fourteenth Princess felt dizzy and the jade box in her hand fell out.

A palace maid quickly caught the jade box: "Your Highness——"

The queen immediately said, "Help the princess go to the compartment to rest."

Princess Fourteen's eyes were filled with pleading: "Mother, I want to listen."

The Queen looked at Emperor Jingming hesitantly.

Emperor Jingming nodded slightly: "Then listen."

Just as Lao Qi said, Shi Si is not a child anymore and we can’t keep everything hidden from her. Otherwise, she will be used by someone with ulterior motives and do something irreparable.

Thinking of how Nanny Duo had slightly stirred up Fourteenth Emperor's hatred towards the Empress, Emperor Jingming felt a pang of fear.

If the truth about Concubine Chen's death had not been revealed to Fourteenth Prince in advance, this daughter might have followed in the footsteps of Concubine Chen and Concubine Yang and been used as a tool by others.

But now he felt relieved.

He didn't even expect Fourteen to perform so well, and quietly lure the other party into showing his true colors.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jingming's evaluation of Yu Jin became much higher.

The transformation of these three titles - Mother - Empress - Empress - was pointed out by Yu Jin.

This kid is really smart.

"Madam Duo, you are a Wu Miao people. Fifteen years ago, you sneaked into the palace and stirred up trouble. What was your intention?" Emperor Jingming collected his thoughts and stared at Madam Duo closely.

Aunt Duo remained silent.

"Why did you instigate others to harm the princess, the crown prince, and even the empress?"

"I don't know what the emperor is talking about."

Emperor Jingming was furious: "Just now you instigated the Fourteenth Princess to use poisonous insects to harm the Empress. I heard it clearly. Do you still want to deny it?"

"The Queen punished my adopted daughter, and I just wanted to seek justice for her. As for the Emperor's claim of harming the legitimate princess and the crown prince, I have no idea what he meant by that."

Seeing the calm and composed Aunt Duo, Emperor Jingming was furious and sneered, "If you knew that your companions in the capital had been executed, would you still pretend to be ignorant?"

Auntie Duo's calm expression finally changed a little: "What does the emperor mean?"

Emperor Jingming sneered: "The two grandparents have been cut into pieces. Aunt Duo, if you tell me the truth about your purpose, I can give you a whole body. Otherwise, they will be your role models!"

This time it was Nanny Duo who started laughing: "Your Majesty wants to cut this servant into pieces? Haha, I wonder if Your Majesty has asked the Empress Dowager?"
