Blood kept gushing from Ye Yabing's abdomen, quickly staining her crimson clothes dark red, and the floor gradually became red with her blood.
"Don't be afraid, one stab and it'll be over soon," Yun Chi whispered in her ear, even turning the dagger plunged into her abdomen.
They wanted to end her life as soon as possible.
Ye Yabing's hand, which was covering her abdomen, was stained with blood. Seeing Yun Chi's ruthlessness and determination, she finally gave up and reached out her hand to Yun Chi.
Her eyes were filled with resentment and hatred as she asked haltingly, "Yun Chi, we've been childhood sweethearts. You...you really have no feelings for me at all?"
Yun Chi whispered in her ear, "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Marrying you would make me feel proud!"
Ye Yabing understood. He never loved her; he only loved her face as the Prince Ding from beginning to end.
Because Ye Qingxue grew up in the countryside, he believed that she was a country girl, uncultured, and would bring shame upon him, so he tried every means to break off the engagement.
Now that she's disfigured, expelled from the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, and labeled a witch who brings disaster to the world, Yun Chi only wants to get rid of her!
"Aren't you afraid that your true identity as a prince of the Great Zhou will be exposed if you treat me like this?" Ye Yabing asked through gritted teeth. She was in too much pain to make a sound, and only Yun Chi could hear her.
"I've confirmed that you're just spreading rumors about me. As long as you're dead, this rumor will never spread." Yun Chi kept his voice low and close to her ear.
To everyone else, this scene made it seem as if Ye Yabing was a witch who brought disaster to the world, while Yun Chi was kept in the dark all along.
Now that he has learned the truth, for the sake of the people and the stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he has no choice but to kill his own queen with his own hands.
Although he had killed someone, he was also in great pain and couldn't bear to part with his childhood sweetheart, the queen.
—That's what the people all thought.
Seeing that the situation was about right, Yun Chi moved away from her ear, straightened up slightly, and said in a normal tone, "I'm sorry, Ya Ya, I cannot abandon the people of Great Zhou!"
He's acting!
He's using her life as a performance to protect his reputation!
"You...you!" Ye Yabing gritted her teeth, trying to use her last bit of strength to strangle him, but her hand was held tightly by Yun Chi, and she couldn't move at all.
What terrified her even more was that she could feel her life slipping away bit by bit.
She seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked past Yun Chi to see Ye Qingxue standing opposite her at some point.
Ye Qingxue's face remained expressionless.
Ye Yabing stared at her intently for a long time before Ye Qingxue finally knelt down beside her. "What do you want to tell me?"
Yun Chi handed Ye Yabing to Ye Qingxue: "You are still her sister. Even if you exposed her true colors, she still wanted to say goodbye to you before she died."
Ye Qingxue: "..."
Ye Yabing stared intently at her, her eyes almost bulging out of their sockets with hatred: "As the older sister, why are you so cruel and heartless, completely ruining my face?! I am a famous beauty in Kyoto!!"
“You, as my sister, poured poison into me for a man, trying to kill me, while I only ruined your face, which is already very merciful.”
"You're not being merciful; you're just looking to get revenge on me and Yun Chi today!"
Ye Qingxue responded with an emotionless "Oh," and said, "That's right, you're absolutely right!"
Ye Yabing trembled with rage: "I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
Ye Qingxue's expression remained unchanged. She whispered into Ye Yabing's other ear, "Okay, then you must remember everything I have done for you in this lifetime."
"Remember every scar I left on your face; remember how I trampled you to death step by step tonight; remember how I wiped out all of you from your second wife's family!"
Ye Qingxue's voice was chillingly cold. At this moment, she seemed like a vengeful ghost crawling out of hell, and her expression was far more terrifying than Ye Yabing's.
Her words were sharp as nails, determined to pierce into Ye Yabing's mind and soul, making Ye Yabing tremble with fear: "You must remember this well, after you become a ghost, come and seek revenge on me, and I will make your soul vanish into thin air time and time again!"
"You...you!" Ye Yabing's eyes widened, but the blood in her abdomen continued to flow, and her pupils gradually dilated.
She was really going to die, and she was so unwilling to accept it. How could she be no match for Ye Qingxue, a village girl who had grown up in the village since childhood?
Why did this happen? Why?!
She was disfigured, while Ye Qingxue's face remained intact and beautiful! She was dying, and Ye Qingxue watched her breathe her last, filled with such hatred!
Suddenly, Ye Yabing's eyes widened and her whole body tensed up, as if she had seen something extraordinary!
