Chapter 405: Concubine Yue’s Death, a Secret



Li Qingshi was in disbelief.

Looking up at the eerie sky, I felt a sense of sadness in my heart.

"Your Highness, if you seek revenge, I, Li Qingluo, will accompany you with my life."

Duan Rongshi said these words that had been buried in his heart for seventeen years, and the depression in his heart was relieved a lot.

Besides, how could he bear to take her life?

He smiled and caressed her face.

"What do you want with your life?"

"I only ask you to stay with me for a long time, which is the blessing I have received from the gods."

Li Qingluo raised her head with red eyes and kissed his face.

"good."

She finally understood why he cut himself and bled to save her life even though she was clearly poisoned by a bloodthirsty poison.

He couldn't hold onto anything else.

Perhaps it is really only me who can allow him to live like a human being.

"Your Highness, may I ask what's going on with those mute slaves?"

"After the Empress's accident, I heard that the entire Guifu Palace was massacred, and then a huge fire burned it all down."

"But those mute servants in Guiyuan look like they used to work in the palace."

Duan Rongshi propped himself up and stood up.

Holding Li Qingluo's hand, he walked back.

After the two entered the palace, he said, "Those mute slaves, the older ones, were my mother's former companions."

"It was two years after my mother's death, when I was eight years old, that they carefully passed the news to me."

"In this world, apart from them, no one else knows that Guiyuan was the house that Concubine Yue bought for them to live in during her lifetime."

Li Qingluo was shocked: "Did the queen buy them when she was alive?"

"Then Madam, didn't you already know..."

Duan Rongshi nodded: "Yes, my mother may have anticipated that she would meet with an unexpected disaster."

"So, when she became alert, she pulled out the tongues of the mute slaves one by one half a month in advance, then gave them fake death drugs and transported them out of the palace to settle down in places where they looked like they had been tortured to death."

"She has been replaced by some new people, all of whom are spies from various palaces."

"The bloodbath at Guifu Palace was simply a purge of spies from various palaces."

Li Qingluo gasped heavily. With such a big move, wouldn't Concubine Yue's last days be infamous as a cruel concubine?

"But since she has the fake death drug...why doesn't she use it on herself?"

Duan Rongshi gripped the edge of the table, exerting great force.

Li Qingluo saw a crack extending along his side and in front of him.

She had a horrified guess.

"As the Princess of Great Chu, Her Majesty cannot simply divorce and escape. She must maintain her dignity and respect as a Princess of Great Chu, so she can only wait for those conspiracies to fly towards her."

"But she still has you..."

"Since she was able to save those old friends she brought from Da Chu, why didn't she think of a way to save herself?"

"So maybe she also took the fake death drug?"

But a big fire burned down the entire Guifu Palace.

Even Concubine Yue was burned to ashes.

What the truth is is unknown.

But Emperor Yan is really a ruthless person.

The person I have loved for six years turned against me in an instant and was more ruthless than anyone else.

This is truly the nature of an emperor.

He seems affectionate, but in fact he is the most heartless person.

Duan Rongshi gently closed his eyes and rubbed the ring on his finger: "Starting from Concubine De, they all took turns to repay my mother's life one by one."

Two days later, Li Qingluo left Guifu Palace.

She followed Ling Fengzi to the previous dynasty and paid a visit to the immortal Yunhe.

"Are you my disciple?"

Immortal Yunhe looked at Li Qingluo with some disdain.

Not only is he small, his face is also ordinary.

Immortal Yunhe was a little disappointed.

However, it was a matter of loyalty to the person who entrusted him with the task, so Immortal Yunhe had to suppress the grievance in his heart and reluctantly accepted it.

"Since you are here, please leave the palace with me today."

After he said this coldly, he turned around and walked ahead holding Fu Chen.

Qingyangzi gave Li Qingluo a look, and the two of them hurriedly followed, one in front and one behind, and climbed onto the carriage.

Halfway along the way, they met Princess Qinyu's sedan chair.

The carriage of the immortal Yunhe was given by Emperor Yan.

It is wide, large and very luxurious.

Even Princess Qinyu's sedan had to pull over and wait for the carriage to pass.

In order not to be an eyesore, Li Qingluo consciously sat cross-legged on the shaft outside the sedan.

She saw Qinyu gently lift a corner of the curtain and look towards them.

It seems that she is completely recovered.

After the two sides had exchanged views, Li Qingluo watched Princess Qinyu's sedan hurriedly leave, so he asked Sha Jiu to find out where Qinyu had gone.

Sha Jiu came back quickly: "He went to the Queen's Palace."

Li Qingluo instantly became alert.

However, she touched her face, which was about to recover, and with some regret, she could only order Sha Jiu: "Go and find out what she wants when she goes to see the queen."

Sha Jiu disappeared on the long street in the blink of an eye.

The Immortal Yunhe in the car half-opened his eyes and said, "You are quite brave."

Soon, they left the palace.

Li Qingluo did not get off the carriage and leave immediately, but followed the master and disciple directly to the National Master's Mansion.

As soon as I entered the door, the young Taoist priest at the gate came over holding a red invitation and said, "Master, we received more than 20 invitations today. Among them, the Pan family, the family of the eldest son-in-law, sent a wedding invitation."

"It is said that Miss Pan is getting married. Please come and have a drink at the wedding if you have time."
