Chapter 878: Chapter 876: Kill Su Yingxue

“What has happened?”

The Empress Dowager hurried over, supported by Shen Yu on her side.

In the hazy, incense-filled Buddhist hall, the portrait of Qin Zheng revered and treasured by the Empress Dowager, hung on the wall, had been mysteriously dampened; the face on the painting looked as if it had been crying.

“How could this be!” The Empress Dowager commanded the painting be taken down, clutching it to her chest and weeping sorrowfully, “My Zheng Er, have you come to me in a dream? Are you worried Zhao’er is being bullied, so you cried?”

“Mother… it’s all my fault for not being able to stay with you all the time.” Shen Yu also began to cry miserably.

After the incident in the Buddhist hall, the Empress Dowager’s favoritism towards Shen Yu grew even stronger. She not only bestowed all her treasures upon Shen Yu but also allowed her to stay in the Funing Palace until her marriage, wanting her company every day. The Empress Dowager personally took care of Shen Yu, administering medicine for her injuries, cherishing her like a treasure.

Even Qin Rulie and Qin Ge showed exceptional affection towards Shen Yu.

For a time, Shen Yu became the most esteemed person in the Great Wei, unrivaled in prominence.

Looking at the palace filled with bestowed treasures, Shen Yu realized that all these rare and valuable items were things she had never seen before, not even daring to dream of them!

She extended her hand to caress them, greed flickering despicably in her eyes.

Her true nature was laid bare in an instant.

Mu Fei walked in, fanning himself, and seeing her like this, he sneered, “Are you satisfied with just this?”

Shen Yu was startled, and she caressed her own smugly satisfied face subconsciously, “What’s there to be dissatisfied about? After a few days, I’ll marry cousin, and then, I will not only be a princess of Great Wei but also the noble Princess of the Scarlet Flame King. Even the former identity of Su Yingxue can’t compare to me.”

What a phoenix among people!

Even the immortals would envy her, wouldn’t they?

“With Su Yingxue still alive, why would you become the Scarlet Flame King’s Princess?”

Mu Fei mocked coldly, “Chu Yihan is already on his way back. Once he reaches Su Yingxue’s side and learns that she has been imprisoned, he will be furious. Even if it means going to war, Su Yingxue might consider the lives of the civilians, but Chu Yihan, that war-loving man, will not! If he attacks the Great Wei Capital, what use will your title as princess be?

Or maybe he wants to avenge Su Yingxue. Don’t forget, although you have her face, you are nothing but an impostor, and Su Yingxue is the real princess.”

Mu Fei reminded her coldly.

Shen Yu’s heart, which had been floating on clouds, suddenly plummeted down, shattering into pieces.

“Su Yingxue…How could I forget about her! She must die! She must die! Without her death, I can never hold legitimate title.”

Shen Yu stamped her feet anxiously, “But what can I do? Cousin is under some spell! He is inexplicably protective of Su Yingxue, and not even the imperial grandmother, my aunt, nor my older cousin can lay a finger on her!”

“If Qin Muyan protects her, does that mean everyone else in Great Wei is just for show? Just fake your death a few more times, and the Empress Dowager and emperor, for your sake, will have no choice but to order Su Yingxue’s execution.”

Mu Fei’s voice, tinted with a cold edge, drifted by her ear.

Shen Yu clenched her teeth; he wanted her to hurt herself again!

She had already suffered enough pain after falling from the building!

But on second thought, if she didn’t get rid of Su Yingxue, she would never be secure in her position as princess.

The man she loved, Qin Muyan, only had eyes and heart for that wretched Su Yingxue!

She couldn’t continue like this any longer!

According to Mu Fei’s suggestion, Shen Yu caused two disruptions, using her mother’s supposed visitations in dreams, claiming that if Su Yingxue lived, she would continuously torment her, infuriating the Empress Dowager who directly ordered Su Yingxue’s execution.
