With Qingyi's help, Wang Yiyuan managed to get out of the Imperial High Court prison without being caught. Qingyi had crippled Wang Yiyuan's meridians unwittingly by her, in order to prevent an unwanted fight.
Then, Qingyi took him to the imperial palace, to a place that could make Wang Yiyuan complete her old grudge.
Wang Yiyuan was shocked as he stood in front of an extremely fine majestic palace. He looked at Qingyi, wanting an explanation as to why the girl had actually brought him here. Qingyi then said, “Come in. The person you want is inside.”
After that, Qingyi hid near the pillar that was not illuminated by light. He had already seen Wang Yiyuan enter the palace, although his steps looked doubtful. Yinghao gave himself a look, sitting on Qingyi's shoulders as usual.
“Master, you will let Wang Yiyuan kill Grand Consort Sun's widow?”
Yinghao was not inexhaustible, why was there such a disobedient son-in-law like Qingyi in this world. But no wonder, the master could even be a disobedient child who could be said to have destroyed his own family.
Consort Sun's widow was only her in-laws and their relationship wasn't that close. Plus, right now he was still angry at Baili Qingchen. It is not impossible that this is one way to vent anger.
But the answer is very surprising.
“No. Wang Yiyuan will not kill him.”
Meanwhile, Dowager Consort Sun was greatly shocked when a black-robed person suddenly walked into her room. He was about to scream, but stopped because it would only bring more trouble. The man unfolded his hood, revealing his face to Consort Dowager Sun.
As Wang Yiyuan looked at her, Consort Sun's eyes flashed.
“You? No, no way,” murmured Dowager Consort Sun.
“You killed Wang Lingshan, didn't you?” ask Wang Yiyuan.
Consort Dowager Sun still had trouble reacting. That face, why is it so exact same?
“You...His twin sister?” ask Dowager Consort Sun after a moment of thought.
Wang Yiyuan turned his face away. The one who killed his twin sister turned out to be just a fifty-year-old woman. The woman lived in the palace, hence her status must be quite high and honorable.
Until now, Wang Yiyuan had not known why Qingyi was willing to take him to meet an assassin who turned out to be a member of the harem palace.
It's true, the imperial family is really cunning!
Dowager Consort Sun thought back. A few hours ago, his servant said that King Changle and Princess Empress Changle had succeeded in arresting the perpetrators of the infiltration of illegal immigrants from the south. He also heard from some people who had seen the face of the perpetrator, who was so similar to someone from King Changle's past life.
He only believed it after seeing it directly. The purpose of the woman coming here must not be simple. It was impossible for a prisoner to visit the harem palace all of a sudden. Also, there was no way he could be released from a prison whose guard was extremely strict. Well, then someone must have let go.
“Princess Empress Changle released you, didn't she?”
Of all the people, this is the only one who can do it. Consort Dowager Sun knew very well that Qingyi had abilities that no one else could.
He can infiltrate without being discovered, can act without fear of rules, and can disguise without fear of being exposed. His thoughts and actions were not simple either. Merely, Dowager Consort Sun did not know why Qingyi was willing to do so.
The anger in his chest churned when he first saw the person who had killed his twin brother. It felt like he wanted to stab Consort Sun's Dowager with a dagger under his cloak.
But before that, he needed to know the reason why this fellow killed his twin brother. Consort Sun's widow was never afraid, and she always knew that this day would come.
Wang Lingshan, who had been a pestle in his heart for so many years had kept him far away from his son. This person, who had a blood relationship with him, definitely came to demand a reply.
“If you want to kill me, then just do it. No one will be able to catch you,” Consort Dowager Sun said. Wang Yiyuan chuckled.
“I'm not a guy like to kill for no reason.”
“Didn't you have a good reason? Right, I did kill Wang Lingshan. So, why?”
“I didn't expect, Widow Consort was so cold-hearted. Not even an orphan soldier did you let go.”
Wang Yiyuan clenched his hands. Had it not been for the palace, had it not been for anyone outside to be watching him, he would not have hesitated to stab this woman in the chest, slit her throat and cut off her hands and feet. The woman before him looked noble, but who would have thought her heart was so cold and cruel.
“I'm just a mom. Which parent wants their child to get lost until they don't recognize right and wrong? What's wrong if I get rid of the thorns that make my son's flesh slowly rot and give off an unpleasant smell?” said Consort Dowager Sun.
Wang Yiyuan smiled smirkingly.
“Then, did you ever think that the life you lost was one that you could hardly defend? Did you ever think that everything was the act of your own son?”
“That's why I received my karma! If you want to kill me, kill me! I'd rather die than be haunted by those shadows for life!”
If Qingyi and Baili Qingchen heard him, perhaps her heart could calm down a little. Consort Sun's widow who had been pretending not to feel guilty for her actions turned out to keep her pain alone. Only when he met the family of the person he had killed could he reveal his heart.
Wang Yiyuan was struck with emotion. He pulled out his dagger. Consort Dowager Sun closed his eyes, preparing to die tonight. Incidentally, he was also tired of being in the palace. The rest of his life is still long pity if wasted. Only by dying could he free himself and free his son.
The dagger shot out as fast as the wind, then passed beside the neck of Consort Dowager Sun. Another centimeter, the dagger could hit the skin and tear it apart.
However, the energy Wang Yiyuan exerted was not directed to it. The dagger misses, cuts off a few strands of Consort Sun's Widow's hair and gets stuck in a pole.
“Down Consort, you must live by bearing your karma.”
Then, Wang Yiyuan covered her head back with a robe. He turned around leaving Consort Sun's room. Just then, Dowager Consort Sun opened her eyes, staring at Wang Yiyuan's back until her figure disappeared behind the door. A moment later, he closed his eyes, calming himself down.
“Master, your guess is correct, Wang Yiyuan really did not kill him. Congratulations, your mission was successful and the prize has been added to the dimensional space,” Yinghao said.
Qingyi came out from hiding. There was nothing he needed to ask and he also did not need to know the reason why Wang Yiyuan really did not kill Grand Empress Dowager Sun.
He walked over without a sound, then beat Wang Yiyuan unconscious. Qingyi dragged Wang Yiyuan's body under the willow tree, leaning it there.
“Yinghao, help me return him to jail!”
