Chapter 414 Cruel enough
Accept her fate? Why should a princess like her accept her fate?
No, she doesn't accept her fate, she doesn't want to accept her fate!

Guo Guo was unable to utter a word at this time. He could only hold the old lady's hand tightly and stare at her in shock.

She had never imagined that her mother would send her closest nanny to kill her.

Suddenly, Yu Hu's sarcastic words rang in my ears:

[If your mother knew that you had stayed in such a filthy place, she would be the first to kill you. This is your fate, Guoguo.]

[The royal family has no family affection, only face. 】

[They can't afford to lose this person. ]

She vaguely recalled Pei Yang's words:
[It's too hasty to take a radical approach. You and I have both experienced her skills. If you act rashly without a perfect plan, you will definitely fail miserably and suffer the consequences.]

You have to bear the consequences yourself. Do you have to bear the consequences yourself?

Yes, those ugly, rotten and smelly men were all selected and prepared by her personally for Yu Hu according to the most unbearable standards, but in the end, they all happened to her.

There is no satisfaction of revenge, only the consequences of one's own failure.

Guo Guo felt icy cold all over.

So she was completely abandoned by... her mother?

Ah, she was unwilling. How could she be willing to accept this?

She is still so young, she is a princess, and she will have plenty of good years to live in the future. She hasn't lived enough, not enough at all, she doesn't want to die, she doesn't want to die!
Guo Guo struggled desperately and tightly grasped the old lady's hand, looking at her tearful face.

Madam Zhuang cried and sobbed, "Princess, please go with peace of mind. This old servant understands what you mean, and the Queen also understands. Don't worry, we will not let any of those who harmed you go."

Guo Guo felt cramps in his stomach and couldn't stop the blood from flowing from the corners of his mouth.

She knew that she was really going to die this time, and her vitality was being drained away bit by bit by something.

She opened her dead fish eyes and stared at the kind-looking old lady in front of her. For the first time, she thought... How could her mother be so scary?
Does she really love her children?
No, her mother didn't love her, not at all.

That Empress Pei in the Central Palace seemed... born to love only herself.

Guo Guo made loud noises from his throat and stared with his eyes wide open, trying desperately to see clearly what was in front of him. However, his vision was blurry and his strength to struggle gradually faded.

She held the old lady's hand and slowly died, with her eyes open from beginning to end.

Madam Zhuang wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, slowly pulled her hand away from Guo Guo's. When she stood up, she had put on her usual serious, old-fashioned, expressionless face again, "The princess has passed away. Go to the palace to report the death. The princess went out of the capital with the prince yesterday to relax. Unfortunately, she fell off a cliff and died. The couple loved each other so much that they lived and died together."

Madam Zhuang wiped away the last tear from her face and said calmly, "Send a few people to the Cheng En Marquis's mansion to report the news."

"The princess and her husband are deeply in love, so let's bury them together."

*
In the evening, the Cheng'enbo Mansion was in complete chaos.

The old Lord Cheng En and his wife rushed to the princess's residence but were stopped by servants and were unable to see their second son for the last time.

After returning dejectedly, old uncle Cheng En called his eldest son Sun Bochao to talk in the study.

Suddenly, an arrow shot from a sleeve from the window hit the desk, and the tail of the arrow swayed slightly. Sun Bochao immediately led his men to chase after it, but they came up empty-handed. When he returned to the study, he saw his old father holding a piece of paper, already in tears.

Two lines of words on the paper: After inspection, there are obvious marks of strangulation under your son's neck, which seems to be caused by human strangulation. If you want to see it in person, I can send you to my house at midnight tonight.

Sun Bochao clenched his fist tightly, "Father."

"This is too much! Pei, this is too much!!"

"It was Madam Zhuang who came to propose it personally. She used the palace's gold medal of amnesty, and no one dared to stop it." Chi Tu leaned in front of Yu Linlang, raised his hand to grab her teacup and sipped the water, "What do you think?"

"What can I do?" Yu Linlang carefully trimmed a pot of herbs without blinking an eye. "That person is the Empress of the Central Palace, someone close to His Majesty. What else can I do?"

Chi Tu's little fist fell on the table. "Hey, I don't believe you didn't expect someone to come to the palace."

"So what if I expected it? Am I really going to break off relations with the emperor and go against the royal family? If I expose my disrespect to the public, I will really be charged with treason."

Chi Tu rolled his eyes and winked at her, "Then we can transfer the people out of Jingzhao Prefecture Prison in advance."

"Why bother?" Yu Linlang put down the scissors without caring, touched the green leaves, and smiled, "The Empress wants to kill someone, can you stop her?"

Chi Tu opened his mouth wide, revealing an incredible look, "What do you mean? Didn't the one in the palace rescue her?"

She moved closer to Yu Linlang, wiped her neck, and whispered, "Are you going to kill her?"

Yu Linlang looked at her leisurely, then tapped someone on the forehead, "What else? The hypocritical royal family cannot allow this stain to continue to spread."

She would take revenge for her grievances and her revenge for her grudges. The matter between her and Guo Guo had been completely settled when she sent Guo Guo to Shuiyue Temple to reap what he had sown.

Everything that happened next had nothing to do with her.

The emperor and his family wanted to deal with Guo State out of respect, could she stop them? Of course she couldn't stop them, and there was no reason to stop them.

Chi Tu made a face like a hanged ghost and lowered his voice, "That Empress is really cruel! Ah? That's her own daughter, her own flesh and blood. She... really has the heart to do that to her."

"If you are not ruthless, how can you hold the position of the master of the harem?" Yu Linlang looked at her with a smile, "You have been observing for so many years, and you don't know how powerful the mistresses of the big families are?"

"That's right." Chi Tu sighed and was shocked. "This is Queen Pei. Compared with her, the methods of those mistresses are nothing."

She pounded the table and put down the teacup. "So, let's just let it go?"

"What else?" Yu Linlang looked at her with a mixture of laughter and tears, then sighed, "The prince said that the evidence we have is not enough to completely bring down the Pei family."

"Well, I think so. These account books are written in a very obscure way, and the physical evidence is not sufficient. In addition, these girls who were abducted actually don't know who is behind it, so they can't provide any evidence."

"If Pei Yang dies, everything will disappear."

Chi Tu opened his mouth and put his head closer to Yu Linlang, "How do you know that Pei Yang is dead?"

Yu Linlang reached out and pushed her curious head, "I guessed it."

"Then let's just forget it?"

"Count?" Yu Linlang narrowed her eyes and sneered, "Of course it's impossible to count. No matter what, it's time to expose this series of dirty industrial chains created by the Queen's family to the world."
