The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!
Chapter 260: Prime Minister’s Gold (End)
When the news of the emperor's death reached the harem, Jiang Yutang accidentally broke the teacup.
"What do you think happened to His Majesty? Who killed His Majesty?"
When she heard the word "Regent" from the palace, she felt sick.
"In the past two years, I have been making things difficult for Su Yunwan and have framed her many times. Although I have never succeeded, the feud between us has already been formed. Now that her husband has seized the throne, how could she let me go?"
"I have no children. Would she want me to be buried with the emperor?"
"No! I can't just sit there and wait for death! I have to escape!"
Jiang Yutang subconsciously asked the system for help.
She thought the system would rescue her from danger like it had done countless times before. Even if it would force her to kill many people afterwards, so what?
Here, there is only one way out, which is life and death. As long as she can survive, what does the life and death of others have to do with her?
But when the mechanical voice sounded, what it said was not what she wanted to hear, [Unbinding from the host——]
"what?"
[The loser is not worthy of continuing to be bound to this system. Please take care. We will never see each other again. ]
"My parents think I am cruel and ruthless and have disowned me. The emperor who doted on me is also dead. System, are you going to leave me now too?"
Jiang Yutang couldn't accept it.
She saw a white light flying out and reached out to grab it without thinking.
As expected, her hand fell empty.
Before she had time to feel sad, she heard another gentle female voice.
"caught you."
This sound...
Jiang Yutang was about to look at the person who came, but suddenly a strong wind blew and lightning appeared.
The wind blew so hard that she couldn't open her eyes, and she could only vaguely hear some words that she couldn't quite understand.
"Hey, stop trying to touch me! I'm not using any power that doesn't belong to this world. It just flew towards me on its own."
Yiqing looked up at the sky helplessly.
She felt that this Heavenly Dao was really a little stressed out.
She knew that He had only been formed recently and was still relatively fragile. Since He had promised in the Prime Minister's Mansion that He would not use his own power to seize the system, he would naturally keep his promise.
Now the system has fallen into the trap, and she just reached out and grabbed a handful. Is it necessary to react so strongly?
The Heavenly Dao seemed to realize that it had made a mistake. The wind and thunder stopped immediately, and the clouds in the sky were blown away, revealing a bright sun.
It’s like - the other person gives you an awkward but polite smile.
Jiang Yutang pushed aside the messy hair that was all over her face. The moment she saw Yiqing, she looked angry at first, and it seemed like she would start cursing in the next second.
But when she looked down and saw the small ball of white light in her hand, her expression suddenly changed and she blurted out, "Give me back the system!"
She rushed forward to grab it, but saw the white light disappear before her eyes, and the next moment the person was pushed away.
Jiang Yutang fell to the ground, his arm pressed on the broken porcelain of the teacup, and bright red blood soon seeped out.
She was about to get up, but when her eyes fell on the wound, she suddenly broke down and cried.
"It's gone, everything is gone, I have nothing left."
"Why is this happening? I just want power."
"God is so unfair. I was born the daughter of a prime minister, but I had to be raised by a lowly merchant. My fiancé was promised to someone else, and a scandal broke out. I had no choice but to marry an old man who is almost as old as my biological father..."
While she was wailing, the Prime Minister's wife also walked in from outside.
Although she was very disappointed with Jiang Yutang's behavior during this period, and she did say that she would not care about her anymore, the current situation was so chaotic that she couldn't help but feel worried and wanted to come and see her daughter.
Seeing her crying so sadly, the Prime Minister's wife felt bad too.
But she resisted the urge to help Jiang Yutang.
People always have to pay the price for what they do.
Jiang Yutang complained and cried for a long time. Seeing that no one paid attention to her, she crawled to Yiqing and begged.
"I'm still young, I don't want to die, I don't want to be buried with the late emperor. Yun Wan, I have done a lot of things to let you down over the years, but I know I was wrong now. Anyway, you haven't suffered any substantial harm, can you please stop arguing with me about those things? Let me go."
Hearing this, Yiqing raised her eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised.
She didn't say anything, but the Prime Minister's wife couldn't stand it any longer. "What nonsense are you talking about! Yun Wan didn't fall for your tricks because she's very capable. How dare you tell her not to care?"
She couldn't help it and raised her hand to slap Jiang Yutang.
Jiang Yutang covered her face and cried even harder, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. Mom, I'm in so much pain, my hands, face, feet... it hurts everywhere. Mom, can you help me up?"
She cried so sadly that even though the Prime Minister's wife was very angry, she couldn't help but soften her heart and went to support her.
Yiqing frowned slightly when she saw this.
She intuitively felt that something was wrong and reminded: "Mother, be careful, she may not be truly repentant." Mainly because this series of confession actions were too decisive and too smooth, which was not like Jiang Yutang's style.
It was just that she reminded him too late.
The moment Jiang Yutang stood up, she took out a piece of broken porcelain from somewhere and pressed it against the Prime Minister's wife's neck, "Don't move! Or I'll kill her!"
The Prime Minister's wife looked incredulous, her voice choked with sobs, "Yutang, I'm your mother, you...you want to kill me?"
"Shut up! What kind of mother are you? You didn't speak up for me just now, and you hit me instead."
Even though the Prime Minister's wife couldn't see the expression on her face, she could hear the hatred in her tone.
She closed her eyes tightly to hide the pain, and when she opened them again, there was only coldness in her eyes.
Behind him, Jiang Yutang was still negotiating with Yiqing, "Su Yunwan, you don't want to see her die, right? Then you should..."
Before he could finish his words, a hairpin was inserted into Jiang Yutang's neck.
The sudden severe pain made the hand holding the broken porcelain tremble uncontrollably, and the Prime Minister's wife took the opportunity to struggle free from her grip.
Even though a shallow blood mark was left on her neck during the struggle, the Prime Minister's wife did not hesitate at all. She turned around and pulled out the hairpin that was stuck in Jiang Yutang's neck.
Blood gushed out. The Prime Minister's wife did not dodge, but let the warm liquid splash on her face, and then felt it slowly cooling down.
She met Jiang Yutang's incredulous gaze and watched her lose her breath in a pool of blood.
Since the matter of the real and fake daughter was exposed, Jiang's mother has cried many times.
She cried because the baby was taken away by mistake, she cried because her biological daughter was exposed, she cried because she had to be separated from her adopted daughter, she cried because her biological daughter was not living up to her expectations... For an hour, she even cried because she was worried about her biological daughter's future.
But she didn't cry at this moment.
"I fought to the death in that dilapidated temple and it shouldn't be the knife that stabbed me." She said this slowly, without much emotion in her voice.
But Yiqing knew that her heart was not as calm as she appeared.
because--
The hand holding the blood-stained hairpin was shaking all the time.
Perhaps because she had been watching for too long, Mrs. Jiang also realized something.
She glanced down and immediately clasped her other hand, forcing it to stop shaking.
Then she picked up a handkerchief and wiped the blood off the hairpin, then calmly put it back into her hair.
Her reaction was so cold, so cold that it seemed as if the person she killed was not her own daughter but some damn thief.
Yiqing was a little worried about her condition, "Mother..."
"Don't worry, mother is not as fragile as you think." Madam Jiang gave her a soothing smile, and then slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, "If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. Now that you have made a decision, never regret it."
The second half of the sentence seemed more like she was talking to herself.
"The palace is in chaos now, and it's inconvenient for me to stay for long, so I'll leave first."
She turned around, her back calm and steady, but she tripped at the threshold.
"Mother, be careful!"
Yiqing hurried to help.
No one was bumped into anything, but he just fainted.
Yiqing's heart tightened and he hurriedly took her pulse.
When she found out that he fainted due to excessive grief, she felt very upset.
She knew that if Jiang's mother had not appeared, Jiang Yutang would have hidden the broken porcelain piece in order to attack her.
She also knew that Jiang's mother had long guessed that she wanted to kill Jiang Yutang, and in order to avoid being hated by her in the future, she took the initiative to attack Jiang Yutang.
"Mom, I'm really lucky to be your daughter." Yiqing said softly.
This time, she no longer used such an unfamiliar term as "mother" to avoid suspicion.
