"Young Master is joking, how can Princess Qing He not be sensible?" Without waiting for her to finish, Yan Jue cut her off.
The faint smile on his voice matched his hoarse voice, making it seem exceptionally strange and sinister.
Princess Duanyun's face became even paler as she looked at Yan Jue in panic, afraid that her daughter would see through her.
Sun Qing He was someone who was used to being arrogant and reckless. Seeing how Princess Duanyun was acting, not only was she not on guard, she rolled his eyes at her and said angrily, "Look at your talent, what is a swindler worth! I'm a charlatan. I'm telling you, you repeatedly said that you wanted to help me become the Empress, and you even swore that you had your own plans, but your highness forbade me to enter the palace. What are you all going to do? Do you have the nerve to cheat in our house? If this isn't helping, then what is it! "
"You said that I'm a swindler, that I'm a swindler in your house, and that I'm helping you?" Yan Jue's hoarse voice was ice-cold, as if it had been fished out of hell.
Princess Duanyun shuddered all over.
The hall was deathly silent.
On the other hand, Sun Qing He, that idiot, had still not vented her anger after scolding her. This princess was wrong when she scolded you. Who do you think you are? You are courteous even if I say that you are a swindler! All day long, you will wear a mask to play tricks on others. Who knows if you are a human or a ghost, or if you are ugly to the point that you want to use this mask as a cover. If you have the ability to drag that bitch Situ Min down the back seat for me, I will admire you! "
"Pah!"
Just as she finished speaking, Princess Duanyun's palm fell.
The slap was extremely loud.
Sun Qing He had never been hit by her mother before, and this slap stunned her. She covered the left side of her face in anger and shock, and angrily said: "You, you actually hit me! For the sake of such a swindler who swindles food and drinks badly, you beat me up! "
"Go back to your room!"
"Why should I!?" He is just a swindler, he is a swindler, how am I wrong. Mother, you're not like this with me, did you get possessed by a ghost? "
Princess Duanyun's face was extremely ugly as her left hand slapped her again.
"Pah!" The sound was even louder.
Sun Qing He was completely dumbstruck, as if he had seen a ghost. "You! "You are not my mother, my mother never hits me. You are something like you, but you are not my mother —"
How could she have known that her mother's slap had saved her life? If not for her slap, Yan Jue's palm would have struck down just now.
"I'll say it again, go back to your room!" Otherwise, I will sentence you to a month's imprisonment! " Princess Duanyun had never had such strong eyes before.
Her expression was dark to the extreme. It was ashen and ashen like the bottom of a pot.
Sun Qing He wouldn't understand that her own mother was afraid, and at the moment, she was terrified to the extreme. She was using her own way to protect her life.
Yan Jue who was dressed in a black robe and gold mask did not move an inch. He did not make a sound, his entire body releasing a terrifying cold aura, as though he was an evil ghost who just crawled out from hell. At any time, anywhere, he only needed to lift a finger, and that would be enough to take a person's life.
It was effortless.
Yuwen Jue was a freak who couldn't be understood by others back then. He was extremely shrewd, and had thought of ways to be the crown prince back then. He had been missing for so many years, yet no one had heard of him. Everyone thought he was dead, but he had suddenly reappeared, and even looked so ghastly and terrifying.
She had been frightened since the afternoon when he appeared in her bedroom in his black robe and mask. She did not dare to investigate the face beneath the mask. Back then, those people had offered some sort of immortal medicine to their royal father, and it was he who had tasted it for their father. After that, his whereabouts were unknown.
No one knew how he had turned out.
He must have been hibernating all these years just wanting to come back. This girl, Qing He, doesn't care about her life, she actually dared to say such nonsense again and again.
One of them was even worse, his entire family was going to be involved!
This person didn't really care about kinship.
He came to her because he was sure she knew a little about what had happened that year, and because he was timid and wanted to protect himself so that he wouldn't dare to announce it. He was not the boss, and would not show mercy, nor was he someone who was useless like Yuwen Chenglian, who would be easily taken down by others.
His eyes, hidden beneath the mask, were as cold and unfeeling as a viper's.
Princess Duanyun pushed Sun Qing He, but Sun Qing He pushed her forcefully towards Yan Jue.
Yan Jue stared at her coldly, then laughed out loud and said to Princess Duanyun: "Elder sister, your precious daughter does not seem to appreciate your kindness."
After Princess Duanyun heard him call her by that name, his face turned completely ashen, he kneeled down and kowtowed to him, "Second brother, I beg of you, please let her go. She didn't know anything, she didn't know anything, she just wanted to be the queen. She had no brains. I guarantee that she will immediately apologize to you. She will not remember anything that she heard today, so even if elder sister begs you, will you? "
Yuwen Jue was a cautious person so he would definitely not casually reveal his secret. Unless, the person who knew his secret could not continue to live.
The Princess Duanyun trembled as she kowtowed. A sneer came out from under Yan Jue's golden mask and he pushed the Princess Duanyun far away with a wave of his sleeve.
She screamed and fell to the ground. She couldn't get up even with all her strength. It was as if her bones had just fallen apart.
Yan Jue walked towards Sun Qing He, only then did she realize that he had to be afraid, "You, why do you call me mother? What did my mother call you just now? "
"Didn't you hear it, Princess Qing He?" Yan Jue's hoarse voice was mixed with a smile, which made it sound even more frightening. "Strictly speaking, your father married into our royal family, so you are my eldest niece and daughter. "According to the blood relationship between us, you will have to call me Second Uncle."
"No, I … I don't have an uncle like you!" Sun Qing He hurriedly retreated a few steps in fear, the killing intent that assaulted her face made all the hairs on her body stand on end, and her feet trembled continuously, "My Uncle Qi Wang had long left, and Second Uncle had also disappeared twenty years ago. You are just a swindler, you can swindle my mother but not me. "I … I'm not afraid of you."
"Really?" "Since you're not afraid of me, then why are you stuttering?" Yan Jue's laughter was even icy-cold and bloodthirsty. He pinched Sun Qing He's pretty face and forced her to look at him in the eye, "Eldest nephew daughter, Second Uncle will teach you another lesson. A person's value can only be shown by their opponent. Someone like you, who wants to compete for the position of empress with her, is just wishful thinking! You're not even fit to carry her shoes! "
Sun Qing He wanted to cry and yet he couldn't cry out. His bones ached from being pinched, as though they could split at any time. The only thing she could do was open her eyes wide in fear as she let out some indistinct monosyllabic sounds.
"Qing He, quickly kneel down and kowtow to your second uncle, and beg him to spare your life!" Princess Duanyun crawled up from the ground as if his life depended on it, and howled at the top of her lungs.
However, how could Sun Qing He still say anything.
Only through personally experiencing the power of Yan Jue's finger would one understand how terrifying the power of his finger was.
Sun Qing He stared at the ceiling and wailed in his heart.
[Save me! Save me!]
It didn't matter what kind of person he was.
I don't want to die. I don't want to die!]
Princess Duanyun crawled over step by step, but Yan Jue's attack just now was merciless. As she climbed, she spat out blood.
However, Yan Jue was not relieved at all. He turned and looked at Princess Duanyun and laughed sinisterly, "Elder sister, I originally wanted to help your daughter, the Queen Yuan Yuan's dream, but she is too stupid and can't be saved. She shouldn't have done anything, she shouldn't have called her a slut. No one should have coveted her position as the Empress. "
No one could desecrate her, and it was the same for Yuwen He.
Why should such a woman be left with Yuwen He?
What right did this lowly bastard have to scold her?!
"Your precious daughter actually said that I, your brother, was a swindler. Do I, Yuwen Jue, look like a swindler? For people like your daughter, living in this world is a waste! "
As he spoke, he increased the strength in his hands, leaving behind only bloodlust and ruthlessness in his eyes.
Sun Qing He tried his best to kick his leg, but his face was turning uglier and uglier. Princess Duanyun only had enough time to let out a wail before Sun Qing He was flung out and crashed into the wall, falling down heavily like a broken rag doll.
"No!"
Yan Jue walked towards her step by step, then pulled Princess Duanyun up from the ground. His left hand landed on the golden mask on his face, "Didn't you always want to see how I have been like these past few years? This is the last time you look at this world, so I'll let you see my face again and let you fulfill your wish. "
He moved his hand away from the mask, revealing the right side of his face which was extremely handsome. Princess Duanyun shook her head again and again in fear. I can't watch it. "
The mask on his face slowly moved away a little bit …
Prince Consort Sun, who had come back after hearing the news, walked to the door of the main hall and saw the ghostly side of his face. He shouted in fear, "Who the hell are you!"
The mask in Yan Jue's hand floated to the ground, and a strange smile appeared on his fearsome face, "I was just about to go find you."
"No …."
There was only a hysterical scream, and the entire Prince Consort's Mansion was no longer alive.
Night fell.
Within the palace, silence reigned.
After eating dinner, Xiao Ruyue insisted on dragging Yuwen He to accompany her to read, and did not allow him to go anywhere.
"We still have a lot of government affairs to deal with. If those stubborn old men in the imperial court find out that the empress is holding us back like this, they would definitely scold you as a beauty disaster."
"If they want to curse, go ahead. Your Majesty, don't think that I don't know. You don't have much government work to deal with today. Yue Xiang is diligent in his work, and you're even more carefree than I am."
She had poked a certain king, and he was at a loss for words.
While they were playing and laughing, Chong Yang came in quickly, his expression extremely ugly.
"What happened?" Yuwen He sat up straight.
"Prince Consort's Mansion Sun's clan was exterminated."
