Chapter 230 Begging for Mercy
On the way out of the palace, Yu Shu remained silent the whole way until she was outside the palace gates, when she suddenly spoke up: "I underestimated you."

"So, are you admitting that you have a shallow vision?" Yun Wei glanced at her indifferently.

Yu Shu pursed her lips, looked at her cold face, and suddenly took a step closer. "Today, the humiliation you have given me will be etched in my memory."

Yun Wei nodded. "Bringing shame upon yourself is still shame. You should remember this so that you won't overestimate yourself and make an even bigger fool of yourself next time."

Yu Shu looked at her beautiful face, a malice flashing in her eyes. Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped her face hard.

However, before her hand could even touch Yun Wei, her wrist was firmly gripped by a strong force.

She was taken aback, not expecting Yunwei to react so quickly.

Just as she was about to break free from the other person's grip, a sharp pain shot through her, followed by a crisp "crack" sound in the air.

She screamed in pain, "Ah, my hand—"

"This is just a lesson for you. If you dare to be disrespectful to me again, I'll break your arm." Yun Wei pushed her away, her voice icy.

Yu Shu squatted on the ground in pain, her right arm hanging down in a strange, bent arc, clearly dislocated.

Yunwei didn't look at her again and turned to get into the carriage.

Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Yu Shu's eyes flashed with intense hatred.

Yun, Wei!

She won't let this go so easily.

……

As soon as Yun Wei returned to the county princess's mansion, Yun Qi greeted her eagerly. "How is it? Did you get rid of that vixen?" As he spoke, he peeked behind her and, seeing that Yu Shu hadn't followed her back, he breathed a sigh of relief. "You really have a way with things. That woman is clearly not one to stay put. If we let her stay, she might become a tiger to cause trouble."

Yunwei is about to marry Rongzhen, and in the past few days, Yunqi has volunteered to come to the county princess's mansion to help.

Seeing that he had become much more well-behaved, Yunwei let him be.

At this moment, listening to Yun Qi's incessant chatter, Yun Wei glanced at him with some annoyance.

Seeing this, Yun Qi quickly asked, "What's wrong? Who upset you? Tell me, and I'll go teach her a lesson!"

Yunwei glanced at him, sat down in the chair, and said two words indifferently, "Empress Dowager."

"I'll go fix it right away..." Yun Qi's voice trailed off. He swallowed hard and said uncertainly, "You mean the Empress Dowager?"

"Yeah, aren't we going to teach that guy a lesson? You'd better hurry up and go." Yunwei said, taking a dagger from the fruit plate and tossing it to him.

Yun Qi hurriedly took it, then quickly put it back, saying awkwardly, "If it were an ordinary person, I would go and teach her a lesson right now to vent your anger, but the Empress Dowager... ha, I don't have that ability."

Yun Wei scoffed coldly, but didn't say anything more.

Yun Qi paused for a moment, then asked cautiously, "You wouldn't... have already done something to her, would you?"

"It's nothing, I just sprinkled some powder on her." Yun Wei didn't hide anything and told her directly, knowing that Yun Qi wouldn't dare to make a fuss about it outside.

Sure enough, Yun Qi turned pale with shock and stammered, "Sis, you're... too daring! If you're found out, you'll lose your head."

Yun Wei snorted coldly, ignored him, and got up to return to her courtyard.

Yun Qi plopped down in a chair and drank a large bowl of water to calm his nerves.

He suddenly realized that his younger sister was a very terrifying and dangerous person.

He actually dared to provoke her before; he really doesn't know what he's doing.

If she hadn't shown him mercy, he probably would have died more than ten times over.

Realizing this, Yun Qi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

……

At this time, in the imperial palace.

As soon as Empress Dowager Feng returned to Cining Palace, she felt itchy all over. She thought she had picked up some insects in the Imperial Garden, so she had water prepared for her to take a bath.

However, after bathing, her itching not only did not disappear, but became even more severe.

She hurriedly ordered the imperial physician to come and see her. After examining her pulse, the physician could not diagnose the cause and could only prescribe some medicine to suppress the itching.

But even after applying those medications to my body, the symptoms still didn't improve.

Empress Dowager Feng was exhausted from the ordeal, her body covered in scratches. She flew into a rage and ordered the Imperial Hospital to find a solution immediately.

The imperial physicians were in great distress.

One of the imperial physicians suggested, "Princess Rong'an is the owner of Qianjin Pavilion. She has previously provided free medical consultations for the people. I've heard that her medical skills are quite good, and she is also a woman. If we let her treat the Empress Dowager, perhaps we can find the root of the problem."

But Empress Dowager Feng was furious when she heard this.

She got angry as soon as she heard the name Yun Wei.

"Are you admitting that your medical skills are inferior to those of a woman?"

Seeing her anger, the imperial physicians dared not utter another word and continued to discuss what medicine to use.

While chaos reigned in the palace, Yunwei enjoyed a comfortable nap in her own courtyard.

When she woke up, she saw Rong Zhen sitting to the side reading a book.

It was already dusk, and the slanting sunlight streaming in through the window fell upon him, as if coating him with a halo, giving him a unique and gentle glow.

Yunwei lay on her pillow, lost in thought as she gazed at the scene.

Until the man's deep voice rang out, "Have you seen enough?"

Yun Wei blinked, snapped out of her daze, and slowly sat up, saying, "If I say I've seen enough, you'll be in a hurry."

Rong Zhen's lips curled up slightly. "What you said seems to make some sense. Then I will grant you permission to continue reading."

"I'm tired of seeing it," Yunwei said deliberately.

Rong Zhen paused for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his arms, scratching her under the armpit, which immediately drew a scream from Yun Wei.

"Hey, stop it right now... hahaha..."

"Then you still dare to say you're tired of looking at it?" Rong Zhen threatened, half-pressing her down on the bed.

"I won't, I won't." Yun Wei managed to suppress her laughter, afraid he would do it again, and quickly begged for forgiveness.

Rong Zhen then released her and helped her up, using his long fingers to comb her disheveled hair.

Yunwei said, "By the way, what brings you here?"

Rong Zhen paused for a moment, then said gently, "I know everything that happened in the palace."

Yun Wei wasn't very surprised to hear this.

There must be his spies in the palace; it's not surprising that he would know.

"I'm sorry you had to go through all this." Rong Zhen lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Yun Wei shook her head, "I'm not wronged, I've already gotten my revenge."

"We're still too soft-hearted," Rong Zhen suddenly said.

"Huh?" Yun Wei blinked. "Otherwise, would I really kill her?"

“Killing her isn’t necessary, but at least make her suffer a bit,” Rong Zhen said.

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei immediately realized something, "You wouldn't have had someone tamper with it too, would you?"

Rong Zhen's lips curled up slightly. "I didn't do anything."

Seeing his words, Yunwei became even more curious and guessed, "You didn't have someone give her a laxative or something, did you?"

Rong Zhen shook his head, "No, that would be too easy on her."

"What is that?" Yunwei's curiosity was piqued, and she couldn't help but grab his collar and ask.

"You'll know next time we meet." Rong Zhen kept her in suspense, and when she asked again, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
