Chapter 335 The marriage is with your daughter
There was naturally no way to conceal the fact that Yamato had sent an envoy, so the court soon officially announced it and spread it to the people.
In the past few days, Zhou Qingdai had already been hastily buried, leaving Wen Zimei no time to struggle.
It is now a well-known fact that Concubine Wen is still imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. The people have just been talking about the Zhou family's melon for a few days and have started talking about the Yamato envoy.
Gu Ruanci calculated the time and thought that the two people in the prison should have said almost everything.
Especially Concubine Wen, those people have already confessed. If she dares to deny it again, Lu Ennan and Lu Wenxue will be in danger.
For the sake of her children, she had to admit everything.
When Prince Duan heard the news, he was not surprised. Someone had already given him advance notice and told him the truth in advance.
When Lu Enyan came to find Gu Runci and said that he had already made arrangements and the palace was willing to give Gu Runci the opportunity to personally kill the Wen sisters, Gu Runci was still not surprised.
"The preparations I've made over the past few days should be sufficient. I should be able to give these two sisters the most special gift before they leave."
As Gu Ruanci spoke, she packed up the things she had sorted out earlier and asked Nongchun and Zangxia to take them.
As expected, there was no one around in the sky prison, the cells next to it were empty, and the jailers were not around.
The Wen sisters were beaten badly and looked very embarrassed.
But they still didn't die. Since they entered such a place, the Heavenly Prison would naturally have ways to ensure that they were still alive.
Lu Enyan instinctively retreated without listening to the details of Gu Ruanci's conversation with them.
Seeing Gu Ruanci coming in, Wen Zimei knew her purpose.
"You win."
Instead, she calmed down. After all, the outcome before her could not be changed.
Concubine Wen asked, "Are you here to provoke us?"
"I do have this purpose, but if your abilities are too strong to bear, I will probably return empty-handed."
Gu Ruanci answered directly and clearly without hiding anything.
It's already this time, there's really no point in saying those things.
Wen Zimei sneered. She knew that no matter how they struggled, it was too late to save the situation.
Gu Ruanci looked at them, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She didn't feel much pleasure, but instead a deep disgust. She was tired of this struggle.
If she wants to get rid of these two pieces of trash, she needs to make such a long-term plan.
"When you attacked my mother back then, you certainly didn't expect this day to come." Gu Ruanci spoke slowly, with a hint of fatigue in her voice.
When Concubine Wen heard this, a hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
She didn't expect that Gu Ruanci would say such words at this time.
Gu Ruanci ignored her reaction and continued, "You killed so many people, including my family. I really didn't think of it at first. I always thought it must have been Ye Lanxin's doing. I didn't expect that the badge at the scene would betray your identities."
Wen Zimei's face turned pale when he heard this.
If it weren't for that badge, they could have hidden themselves away beautifully.
Wen Zimei noticed that she was beginning to attack her heart, and quickly warned her, "Sister, don't listen to her. She must have known it a long time ago. It's no use regretting it now. She won't forgive us. She just came here to see our miserable state."
Concubine Wen finally reacted and her eyes changed when she looked at Gu Ruanci.
"If it weren't for your sister, you could have lived a peaceful and prosperous life. You gave birth to a son and a daughter for the royal family. Even though they were born out of wedlock, they were legitimate royal bloodlines. But because you helped your jealous, perverted sister, you sacrificed yourself and made your children's future bleak."
Since Wen Zimei wants to continue pretending, then just alienate their sisterhood.
Concubine Wen didn't care: "Don't say these things. If it weren't for my sister, I wouldn't have been able to become Concubine Wen. It's useless for you to sow discord. Now that you know what happened, you can kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you."
Gu Ruanci looked at Concubine Wen with a glint of admiration in her eyes. She had never expected that Concubine Wen's feelings for Wen Zimei would be so deep that she would still be willing to speak for her at this point.
But praise is praise, and things still need to be resolved.
Gu Ruanci slowly spoke, "I know you two are sisters with deep affection for each other. But if you do something wrong, you always have to pay the price. Do you think I will let you go just because of your deep affection for each other?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Zimei sneered, "Of course we know that won't happen. But what can you do to us? We are now prisoners, and your life and death are in your hands. But you must remember, if you do too much evil, there will always be retribution."
Gu Ruanci was not angry when she heard this. She looked at the two women in front of her and felt ridiculous.
They actually feel that they are doing evil.
"Death? Do you want to be free like this? Wen Zimei is definitely guilty of a capital crime. As for Concubine Wen, I believe the royal family will not let Lu Ennan and Lu Wenxue have a stain like you in their lives. They will most likely kill you, but I didn't intend for you to die too easily, otherwise I wouldn't be here today."
Gu Ruanci's words made Wen Zimei think of something.
She glanced at Concubine Wen worriedly, then asked, "What do you want to do with the children?"
Concubine Wen also reacted and immediately asked, "Yes, what do you want to do with my children?"
Gu Ruanci looked at Concubine Wen's expression with great interest and said, "You seem to have never thought about where you went wrong, and you still dare to mention the children. If I don't feel the sincerity of your apology, I promise to return all the remaining hatred to your children. Especially your daughter, I forgot to tell you that the Yamato delegation is coming and proposed a marriage with our Dayao. There are only two princesses in the royal family. The eldest princess is already married, and Princess Hanyue is still young. On the contrary, Lu Wenxue is over the age of coming of age. Although she is only a county lady, she was born into the royal family and her status was given by the emperor. The emperor said she is a princess, so she is a princess..."
When Gu Ruanci said this, Concubine Wen had already collapsed.
"Impossible! How could Dayao possibly marry into Yamato? The people of Yamato disregard human ethics and love to do whatever they want!"
It seems that she has some understanding of Yamato, and Gu Ruanci feels that the situation will be easier.
"You said it's impossible, but it's useless. The Yamato delegation is about to set foot on our Dayao land. When the time comes, marry your precious daughter to an island nation prone to natural disasters and shipwrecks. Live a life of uncertainty with the people there. As the first woman to set foot there, she might become a noblewoman coveted by all the royal men."
Concubine Wen covered her ears and shouted, "Stop it, stop it, I apologize, if you have anything to say, come to me!"
