Jiang Manyun helped Chen Siyuan away from the crowd. At this moment, when there were no outsiders, Jiang Manyun's expression changed repeatedly, and began to become ferocious.
"It breaks my heart to see you in so much pain. I'll make you feel good in a bit, and I promise you'll feel better soon."
Chen Siyuan finally realized what Jiang Manyun was up to.
They will not kill themselves, but destroy themselves.
I finally understood what was causing that strange feeling I was experiencing.
Soon, Jiang Manyun dragged Chen Siyuan around a corner, and when there was no one else around, someone came and dragged Chen Siyuan away.
At this moment, due to excessive roughness, Chen Siyuan's feet almost dragged on the ground, leaving two marks.
Jiang Manyun walked slowly behind.
She smiled.
It was cold, and mostly sarcastic.
She refused to believe that a woman who had lost her innocence could still have the face to stay in the general's mansion.
Jiang Manyun and the others arrived at a very secluded courtyard. Chen Siyuan was almost asleep, and her face looked even more pale.
As soon as she entered, two maids saw her off, and Chen Siyuan collapsed to the ground, truly fainting.
Jiang Manyun walked in and kicked Chen Siyuan, but there was no reaction.
She knew perfectly well that she had administered the drug herself.
First, let this woman faint so she won't cause any trouble. Once the drug takes effect, she'll send Chen Siyuan to find a man.
The men were all ready, just waiting for the show to begin.
According to their plan, Jiang Manyun only needed to do her job. However, because of what Chen Siyuan said not long ago, she changed her mind and decided to do it herself.
After dismissing the maids, she closed the door and walked towards Chen Siyuan.
Jiang Manyun stood to the side, coldly watching the woman who had completely fainted, a sense of pleasure instantly welling up in her heart.
She gritted her teeth and let out a cold laugh.
"Chen Siyuan, you bitch, today I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
"You stupid pig."
"Hmph! You didn't expect I would personally poison you? I'm dragging you down to hell with me!"
As Jiang Manyun spoke, she felt that merely ruining Chen Siyuan's body was not enough to vent her anger. She pulled out a sharp dagger from her sleeve and approached Shen Yuzhu step by step, a hint of ferocity in her eyes.
At this moment, Chen Siyuan fell asleep peacefully. Although she was asleep, her cold and aloof face stung Jiang Manyun's eyes.
As the legitimate eldest daughter of the Marquis of De'an, she was naturally of unparalleled prestige among the noble ladies of the capital.
He was driven to this point step by step by a village girl from the countryside.
Who does she think she is? What gives her the right to be so arrogant?
Jiang Manyun gripped the dagger tightly in her hand, so tightly that her knuckles began to turn white.
Her expression gradually turned ferocious as she stared intently at Chen Siyuan's beautiful face, gritting her teeth as she said, "Isn't it because of this face that you seduced Qiao Yuchen? Without this face, I wonder who would even glance at you?"
Jiang Manyun wanted to slash Chen Siyuan's face and ruin her body, turning her into an ugly monster, so that she would have no face to live on.
She gave Chen Siyuan a clean break, but she couldn't let her die as the young mistress. She had to wait until Qiao Yuchen returned, divorce this shameless woman, and then torture her to death little by little.
A cold smile curled at the corner of her lips, and the knife in her hand suddenly fell, aiming for Chen Siyuan's face.
......
The Imperial Palace.
The Empress Dowager arrived at the Imperial Garden, surrounded by palace maids.
The Imperial Garden was quite deserted today; without the usual babbling brooks, she could enjoy the flowers all by herself.
As she walked and looked around, the Empress Dowager was in a very good mood.
Granny Gao carefully served her from the side.
Today, the Empress Dowager was supposed to go to pray for blessings, but for some reason, she suddenly decided not to go.
The Empress Dowager was in a bad mood and had been in the Imperial Garden for half an hour. She was extremely worried.
Was he worried that the Empress Dowager would be angry and take it out on him?
Just as she was thinking this, she saw Granny Yu rushing over and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, Granny Yu arrived and bowed to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Gu and asked, "What is it?"
"May everything go smoothly for you."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager suddenly looked at Granny Yu, who immediately lowered her head in shame.
Just then, Eunuch Huang suddenly arrived.
"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager."
"What is it?" The Empress Dowager was furious. If this old eunuch wasn't someone close to the Emperor, she would have ordered him to be dragged away immediately.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has ordered a stage to be set up and invites Your Majesty to watch the play."
"Watching a show?"
"Yes." Eunuch Huang knelt on the ground and spoke again.
When gods fight, these lowly soldiers suffer.
You can't refuse something like this.
Thinking back to what happened between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor eighteen years ago, the Emperor never invited the Empress Dowager again, nor did he even pay his respects to her.
This sudden turn of events left him bewildered; what exactly was going on?
"Very well." The Empress Dowager seemed to know why, and walked away.
Upon seeing this, Eunuch Huang quickly led the way.
When the Empress Dowager saw that Eunuch Huang had led her to Jingyuan Garden, her expression immediately turned sour.
At this moment, seeing that the opera had already started on the stage of Jingyuan, and hearing the tune, I immediately understood what was going on.
It was nothing short of a trap.
If I could lay a hand on that woman back then, I won't let her off the hook now.
Having changed his identity and arrived in the capital, he thought the matter was over.
No matter what, anyone who gets involved with her will suffer.
Granny Gao and Granny Yu were so frightened that they didn't even dare to lift their heads.
They had followed the Empress Dowager all the way and witnessed countless things, but one particular incident remained buried deep in their hearts, and every time they thought about it, they felt a lingering fear.
Because of that person's death, the emperor showed no respect whatsoever to the Empress Dowager.
Otherwise, how could the Dowager Consort have been involved all these years?
She was just a lowly palace maid at first, but the late emperor noticed her and gradually promoted her to the rank of talented woman. If it weren't for the rift between the Empress Dowager and the emperor back then, how could she be the current Imperial Concubine Dowager?
Pray for blessings!
We should pray for the soldiers on the frontier, but we should also pray for ourselves.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
A sharp sound rang out.
The eunuch Huang, who was standing next to him, trembled inwardly.
A figure in bright yellow walked directly towards them, surrounded by a large crowd.
The people who were originally following the Empress Dowager all knelt on the ground.
Even the people on the stage inside knelt down.
Huang Gonggong knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head or even steal a glance.
The Emperor came forward and stood opposite the Empress Dowager.
The atmosphere was deathly still at that moment; the only sounds were one's own breathing and the wind around them.
Finally, the emperor spoke first.
"Empress Dowager—"
A chill ran through everyone.
The Empress Dowager, not the Empress Mother, it seems the matter is not over yet.
After a long while, they heard the Empress Dowager hum in agreement and then walk inside first.
The emperor followed him inside.
The crowd, who had been kneeling on the ground, shakily rose to their feet and followed their master. As soon as they stood still, the show began again.
After hearing just a few words, their faces turned deathly pale.
