Returning after a three-year escape from death, the tyrant has turned evil.

Chapter 51 Complete Darkening
Jiang Lanye's lips curled slightly as he coldly said, "A madman? Isn't it all because of you that he's become this way?"

Song Yi was in pain all over her body, but she managed to sit up with difficulty.

"Jiang Lanye, let me explain."

There was no warmth in Jiang Lanye's eyes when he looked at her.

"explain?"

"Do you want to explain why you toyed with my feelings three years ago, or do you want to explain why you're pretending to be by my side again three years later, just to laugh at me?"

Song Yi's face turned deathly pale.

He couldn't answer any of these questions himself.

"Song Yi, I hate you so much."

He said in a cold voice.

Song Yi couldn't help but want to curl up, feeling cold all over.

Jiang Lanye glanced at her, knowing that she was currently running a fever, stood up, and called in the palace maid who was waiting outside the hall.

The palace maids filed in, carrying warm water and clean clothes, not daring to lift their heads, and quickly came over.

After Jiang Lanye finished washing up, seeing that Eunuch Cao had also entered, she immediately said:
"By imperial decree, Consort Song is promoted to Imperial Noble Consort and bestowed with the title Yun."

Eunuch Cao had long anticipated this outcome.

Consort Yun has finally returned.

Upon hearing Jiang Lanye's words, Song Yi buried her head in her knees and remained silent.

It's like she'd been trying to win someone over for a long time, and just when she thought he was about to turn over a new leaf, he suddenly turned completely evil, and no matter how much she tried to coax him or what she did, she couldn't win him back.

"Bring Su Meiren here."

"Yes."

Last night, after Consort Su drugged Jiang Lanye, she was immediately detained by the guards.

Su Meiren's arms were held by the guards, and she was brought over in a very disheveled state.

She knelt down with a thud, saw Song Yi sitting on the dragon bed, and then looked at Jiang Lanye, who was smiling cruelly. Her pupils trembled.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

If Song Yi's identity hadn't been exposed, perhaps she could have evoked some pity from Jiang Lanye with her face.

But now, her face only makes Jiang Lanye hate her even more.

Behind the dragon throne in the Golden Palace, there was always a golden sword. Jiang Lanye didn't even glance at her, and turned around to walk straight to the back of the dragon throne.

With a "whoosh," the sword was instantly pulled out.

The sharp blade gleamed with a cold light, dazzling Su Meiren's eyes.

Consort Su was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, clutching Jiang Lanye's dragon robe tightly as she pleaded, "Your Majesty, please spare my life! I know I was wrong. I was only momentarily bewitched when I drugged you."

Jiang Lanye looked at her face with disgust and said succinctly, "Tear it up."

Su Meiren was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about the skin on her face. Ignoring the pain of tearing her skin, she ripped the skin off, revealing her real face.

Her face was flushed, and her features had become somewhat strange due to wearing the mask for a long time.

After tearing it, she immediately said, "Your Majesty, I will listen to whatever you say. Please spare me, don't kill me!"

She kept talking, and Jiang Lanye took a step back, raised his sword, and pointed the blade at her vulnerable throat.

"Ah! Your Majesty, spare me!"

Jiang Lanye said in a deep voice, "Even now, you still don't know where you went wrong."

Song Yi raised her head and stared blankly at the scene before her.

Consort Su glanced at Song Yi out of the corner of her eye and hurriedly said, "This concubine should not have helped Consort Yun escape, and should not have conspired with Consort Yun to plot against His Majesty."

Jiang Lanye fell silent.

Su Meiren knew she was right and thought Jiang Lanye's anger had subsided a little. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a flash of sword light appeared before her eyes in the blink of an eye.

She stared blankly at Jiang Lanye for a moment, then collapsed heavily to the ground, her body limp and powerless.

A sword seals the throat.

Upon witnessing this scene, Song Yi was utterly terrified. Her hands and feet instantly turned ice-cold, and she huddled in a corner of the dragon bed, trembling all over, muttering to herself:

"Don't kill me, Jiang Lanye, please don't kill me!"

Jiang Lanye casually tossed the sword in his hand to the ground, not even glancing at the person on the ground, and said in a low voice, "Drag him out and deal with him."

"Yes!" Jiang Lanye turned to look at the person on the bed and walked towards her step by step.

Song Yi heard his footsteps and tried to shrink further in, but she had already shrunk to the corner of the wall, wishing she could disappear into the other side of the wall.

Jiang Lanye stopped, about to speak.

Immediately afterwards, Song Yi's vision went black, and she collapsed onto the bed.

Jiang Lanye's icy gaze shattered for a moment.

Eunuch Cao was startled and asked, "What's wrong with Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine?"

Having not eaten for two days, and after being carried back to the Golden Palace, her mind was filled with plans for how to leave. After experiencing so much last night, she had a fever and was probably exhausted.

Jiang Lanye had no intention of helping her up; he simply said, "Call the imperial physician."

"Yes."

When the imperial physician arrived, the golden sword that had been lying on the ground had not yet been put away.

Dark red bloodstains were faintly visible on the blade.

The imperial physician's heart skipped a beat, not understanding what had happened.

"Take the pulse of the Imperial Concubine."

Jiang Lanye gave the order.

"The Imperial Concubine."

The imperial physician nearly bit his tongue.

Because Jiang Lanye's imperial edict had just been issued and had not yet spread throughout the palace, many people were unaware of it.

He walked over and was extremely surprised to see the woman lying unconscious on the bed.

It really is Consort Yun!

He knelt down and carefully took her pulse, noticing the marks on her neck. He stammered, "May I ask, Your Majesty... last night... last night..."

Jiang Lanye simply gave a faint "hmm".

The imperial physician said, "The Imperial Concubine is weak and her pulse is weak and shallow. She must have been frightened, and she has internal cold and external heat. At this time, she should rest and recuperate to regulate the cold."

"Furthermore, one should be mindful of moderation."

He glanced at Jiang Lanye as he said this.

Jiang Lanye frowned and said coldly, "I understand. Prescribe the medicine for her."

"Yes."

The imperial physician wrote a prescription right there in the Golden Palace, and soon a palace maid went to brew the medicine.

The imperial physician then said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine should cover herself with a blanket now to avoid catching a chill. Her forehead is burning hot, so it would be best to place a cloth dampened with cold water on her forehead."

Jiang Lanye stood still, motionless.

No one dared to make a move unless he pulled the blanket over himself.

Song Yi was already thin, and after experiencing such an event, she sank into the bed, looking even more petite and pitiful.

Jiang Lanye eventually went over, picked her up, straightened her up, and pulled the blanket over her.

The palace maid hurriedly went out and brought back a basin of cool water.

Song Yi was truly terrified. He witnessed someone die right before his eyes. Even though he fainted due to extreme weakness, his mouth kept opening and closing, muttering something in his sleep.

Jiang Lanye leaned over to listen.

She kept repeating, "Don't kill me. Don't kill me."

Jiang Lanye hasn't personally killed anyone in a long time.

This is the real him.

Three years ago, because of Song Yi's appearance, he tried to change himself, not wanting to scare her.

But now, she herself has turned herself back.

Looking down at the jade pendant hanging quietly at his waist, Jiang Lanye felt only amusement.

He actually believed Song Yi again and even took the initiative to hand over his jade pendant to her.

Given his usual wariness and suspicion, only Song Yi could have managed to fall for the same person twice.

This time, he was determined not to give Song Yi any chance to escape.
