Marquis Taiping remained silent for a long while before he sighed deeply, clenched his hand into a fist, thumped the table a few more times, and said with a sob: "Things have reached this point, there is no other way to think about it, Ruoyu Rong is a sensible person, she should... she should... kill herself."

Mrs. Li was stunned, staring blankly at her husband for a long time before she said, "Master, what are you talking about? What... died on your own? How could Yurong die on her own? She..."

"If she can't do it, you can ask Mrs. Zhou to help her."

Tai Pinghou was expressionless. Under the dim light, he sat upright on the chair, as if he was a zombie.

"This... How is this possible? Master, I beg you, you can't... A tiger is not a predator, let's go beg Concubine Mei..."

"useless."

Tai Ping Hou looked at Fa's wife, his eyes were full of red silk, he gritted his teeth and growled, "I don't know if Concubine Mei will be implicated in this matter, do you still want to harm her? Now that things are going on, we will protect our whole family." Life, keeping everything in the Taipinghou Mansion is the most important thing, do you understand?"

"But...but...can't...can't..."

Mrs. Li was so panicked that she lost her mind, she just shook her head, and murmured: "We...we won't be married to King Wei at the worst, can't we support Prince Rong, or Prince Jane? The prince recognized from the people, he... what foundation does he have..."

"Stop being a woman. King Wei has no foundation, but this matter concerns the royal family, and the emperor is in charge. Even if King Wei can't take that seat, the emperor is now in his prime, and he won't tolerate a murderer. Otherwise, what is the dignity of the royal family? Do you think I want to do this? As you said, the poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring! But... the emperor is watching coldly at this moment, even if we don't do anything, the emperor and queen will Will do it. Since that's the case, why don't we do it, maybe... we can preserve the glory and wealth of the Hou family."

When Taiping Hou said this, he slammed the table again, and said bitterly: "What's more, this is the catastrophe caused by her, and she should bear it. If Madam doesn't let go of this cruel heart, I will leave it to you." Personally order Mrs. Zhou..."

"Master, don't..."

Mrs. Li cried and hugged her husband's leg, but Taiping Hou's eyes were cold, and he had clearly made up his mind.

****************
In the exquisite embroidery room, it was pitch black at this moment, and it looked out of place in the brightly lit places in the Hou Mansion.

Hou Yurong sat paralyzed on the couch, ever since she knew that Rui'er was taken away by Chunyiwei's men, she had not moved in this position.Now, after an hour, no one came to visit her, which was unimaginable in the past.

Suddenly there were footsteps outside the house, and then the candles were lit, and Mrs. Zhou and a tall and strong woman came over: they each held a tray in their hands.

Zhou said with a gentle smile, "Girl, this is the wild ginseng chicken soup that has been simmering for two hours in the kitchen, and a bowl of white fungus, lotus seed and bird's nest, both of which are your favorite food on weekdays."

Hou Yurong glanced at them dumbly, with a look of disgust on his face, he waved his hand and said, "Take it away, who is in the mood to eat right now? Is daddy back? He... what did he say? If I enter the palace right now Is it too late to see my aunt?"

"Girl, the gate of the palace is about to be locked, how can I get in? You'd better drink these two bowls of soup, sleep peacefully, and when you wake up again, it will be rainy and sunny. "

"How can it be that simple?"

Hou Yurong sighed, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but frown and looked at Mrs. Zhou: "You speak a little strangely today, knowing that I can't fall asleep peacefully, and also, come as soon as you come, what are you doing with Mrs. Chen? She is my The rough woman who sweeps the maiden's house is also qualified to come to my room..."

Speaking of this, I suddenly saw that Mrs. Chen stepped forward two steps.Under the candlelight, the faces of the two seemed to be a little hideous. Coupled with the two huge shadows reflected on the wall, Hou Yurong suddenly felt an ominous premonition, and suddenly stood up and said, "You...what do you want to do? Come... come here man!"

"Girl, stop shouting. I've already told you that no one will come."

Mrs. Zhou shook her head and sighed: "It's only your fault that you caused too much trouble this time, and you were caught by the prince's mansion. No matter what, the Hou mansion can't keep you. Rather than escaping death in the future, it's better to end it now. Take responsibility for your own mistakes."

Mrs. Chen nodded dumbly at the side, and said in a chime, "Yes, you don't have to be reconciled, girl, but it's just a step ahead, and it saves you the process of being tried and beaten. No matter where it is, it's not you. A place where you can survive."

"No...I don't want it, help! Father...Mother..."

Hou Yurong screamed hoarsely, the direction to the door was blocked by Mrs. Chen of the Zhou family, so she could only retreat desperately, all the way to the window, accidentally tripped by the imperial concubine couch, and fell down on it.

"I don't want to die, come here! Help me! Mother! Help me..."

Under the great fear, Hou Yurong completely lost the demeanor of the daughter of the Hou family, her face was distorted, tears and snot flowed down her nose.She climbed onto the imperial concubine's couch with hands and feet, then turned around and was about to climb up the window sill, as long as she opened the window and jumped, she would still be alive, yes, her parents would definitely soften their hearts.

Zhou's Mrs. Chen saw this scene, she couldn't delay any longer, otherwise if she really opened the window and let the whole house hear the aunt's crying, they wouldn't be left alone.

In desperation, they didn't care about dignity, they stepped forward, one grabbed Hou Yurong's arm, and dragged her down forcefully.Then Mrs. Zhou put one hand on her chest, and the other tightly grabbed her neck, and said to Mrs. Chen, "Hurry up."

"understood."

Holding the bowl of lotus seed soup, Mrs. Chen squeezed her mouth open under Hou Yurong's frightened and collapsed eyes, and poured all the lotus seed soup into it.

"Um...cough cough...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Hou Yurong struggled desperately, but soon the lotus seed soup flowed down her throat. In less than a moment, even choking and coughing, she drank [-]% of the bowl of lotus seed soup.

Hands and feet softened, the body in front of her finally stopped struggling, Zhou sighed, and said softly: "Girl, we can't help it, the master and wife are also reluctant to part with you, but... if you don't die, there is no way to explain to the emperor and queen. "

Hou Yurong's eyes were empty, not a single word of Zhou's words entered her heart, since she has done such a cruel thing, why are you talking such nonsense?What is the use?

Suddenly, three or four faces appeared in front of her eyes like a revolving lantern, all of them were extremely beautiful and pitiful, with tearful and desperate eyes staring at her like evil spirits, they were the girls who were killed by her.

"no, do not want!"

Hou Yurong suddenly kicked again, she didn't want to go to the underworld, these girls must be waiting for her there, there might be mountains of swords, fire, seas of oil, or even eighteen layers of hell.Her heart was shrouded in great fear and despair, but everything was in vain.

The graceful body finally stopped moving, the pain caused by the poison made that beautiful face distorted and ferocious, her eyes seemed to be cracked open, and the panic and despair before death still remained.The daughter of the Hou Mansion, who was once aloof and determined life and death at will, just died like this, and she died with regret.
