Chapter 136 The Plan Has Changed
After reading the letter, Yin Liuli frowned.
Gu Jinyan said that when the Empress got up in the morning, she called her mother to her side and scolded her.
Unexpectedly, after a conversation, even the Empress changed her mind.
"Yi'er, what you did back then went too far!"
Cheng Yi immediately knelt down, but her face showed dissatisfaction.
"Back then, Miss Sun went to the Prince Consort's mansion and made a scene, causing everyone to believe that the Prince Consort was a heartless man who abandoned his fiancée in order to curry favor with the royal family."
But I know that my husband is not that kind of person! At that time, our wedding was imminent, and I heard countless sarcastic remarks. How could Mother possibly know the bitterness in my heart?
The Empress sighed deeply.
"But as a member of the royal family, you should learn from your father's benevolence and treat your subordinates with kindness. How can you abuse your power to bully others?"
Cheng Yi said confidently,
"I was holding a grudge, so I just gave her a lesson and sent her back. Who knew she would be so upset?"
"I didn't force her; she took her own life. What does it have to do with me?"
The Empress said angrily,
"You still don't know you're wrong! If you hadn't switched the letters, spread rumors, and personally taught her a lesson, how could she have been so reckless?"
Cheng Yi glanced at her and said disdainfully,
"Isn't it common to see the Empress Dowager in charge of the harem?"
In this entire palace, which concubine hasn't schemed and plotted against each other to win the Emperor's favor?
Your Majesty is tolerant and cultivates herself with benevolence; I, your son, cannot achieve that.
A hint of helplessness flashed across the Empress's face as she sighed.
"It's all because your mother spoiled you... Now that wronged spirit is determined to go to your father and file a complaint before he will let it go."
Your father is very busy with state affairs, and his health has been poor recently. What should we do if your father finds out about this?
Who knows what kind of mess it will make? Not only will your reputation be ruined, but what about the face of the Great Chang royal family?
"Yi'er, you caused this mess yourself, so what are you going to do about it?"
Cheng Yi snorted coldly.
"She's just a vengeful ghost, do you think I'm afraid of her?"
"This servant reports to Your Majesty the Empress..."
Yin Yuzhu, who was standing to the side, stepped forward and knelt down.
"The royal palace is the residence of the emperor, protected by the heavens above and surrounded by dragon energy below, making it most capable of suppressing evil spirits."
"No matter how ferocious that thing is, it wouldn't dare to come in easily."
The Empress said displeasedly,
"And who are you? I didn't ask you any questions, so why are you being so nosy!"
Cheng Yi hurriedly said, "Mother, she is the second young lady of the Yin Marquis's mansion, Yin Yuzhu. A few days ago, when I was traveling, my horse was suddenly startled and almost trampled over me."
It was Yuzhu who intervened in time, stopping the mad horse and saving my son; she was even injured in the process.
A flicker of doubt crossed the Empress's eyes, and she frowned, saying...
"No wonder you look familiar. So you're the young lady from the Yin Marquis's mansion. Are you and that female assistant sister?"
"You're so young, how could you possibly stop a mad horse? Even an ordinary man might not have that ability."
Yin Yuzhu gave a cold laugh that was almost imperceptible.
"Your Majesty, Liuli is Yuzhu's elder sister. Yuzhu has some knowledge of esoteric arts and was able to subdue the mad horse without brute force."
"You also know Taoist magic?"
A look of surprise flashed across the Empress's face.
Yin Yuzhu nodded and said slowly,
"Your Majesty, that vengeful ghost committed suicide. People who commit suicide cannot be reincarnated before their lifespan ends."
She wasn't killed by His Highness; they only had some friction over a decade ago. Now, she's venting her overwhelming resentment on him—it makes no sense.
The Empress looked at her meaningfully.
"you mean……"
Yin Yuzhu curled her lips into a cold smile, "If Your Majesty agrees, entrust this matter to Yuzhu. Yuzhu will surely beat that vengeful ghost to a pulp, so that it will never be reincarnated, and Your Majesty and His Highness will have no more worries."
The Empress frowned and hesitated before speaking.
"No, Yi'er went too far back then. Now that she's back with resentment to cause trouble for Yi'er, it would be against the natural order to kill her."
"Yin Yuzhu, is there any way to relieve Yi'er's predicament without harming the vengeful ghost?"
Cheng Yi looked reluctant and said reproachfully,
"That vengeful ghost has already bullied your son, how can Mother still care about it?"
"In my humble opinion, it would be best to let Yuzhu utterly destroy it, eliminating any future threat!"
"Yi'er!"
The Empress reprimanded him with a stern face.
"Your mother doesn't want to harm it; she wants to accumulate some good karma for you! Look at the kind of person you've become all these years in the palace!"
"Your Majesty, Yuzhu has a perfect idea."
Yin Yuzhu hurriedly said, "Yuzhu can capture that evil spirit, bury it deep underground, and then suppress it with talismans."
Once that vengeful ghost has lived out its lifespan in the mortal realm, it will naturally be reincarnated in the underworld and will no longer cause trouble for Your Highness.
The Empress thought for a moment before speaking.
"If that's the case, then so be it. Yi'er will let her go this time, which will be considered repaying what she owes her. From now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other."
"Yin Yuzhu, I'm entrusting this matter to you. When you arrive, bring plenty of paper money and paper clothes to burn for her, as a way for Yi'er to apologize to her."
A smug look flashed across Yin Yuzhu's face.
"Yes, Yuzhu will obey Your Majesty's decree."
……
After reading the letter, Yin Liuli's brows furrowed into a knot.
She could understand the Empress's protectiveness towards her son.
In her letter to Gu Jinyan, she said that Sun Rong had filed a complaint with the emperor, and that Princess Chengyi would not die, so he and the Empress could rest assured.
At most, Cheng Yi would be reprimanded by the Emperor and given some minor punishments to appease Sun Rong's resentment and settle the feud between the Yin and Yang realms. That would be the best solution.
In the letter Gu Jinyan wrote to her last night, he also said that his grandmother cultivated herself with benevolence and virtue and had a tolerant nature.
To avoid harming his mother's virtue and to teach her a lesson, the Empress Dowager agreed to let him file a lawsuit with the Emperor.
But unexpectedly, Yin Yuzhu's sweet words and meddling caused the situation to change completely.
"Why does Master look so unwell?"
Yin Mei came in and immediately noticed that Yin Liuli's complexion was off. She quickly asked, "Did you catch a cold while sleeping here last night?"
Yin Liuli shook her head.
"It's alright, Sister Mei, please help me with my makeup."
"Yes."
Yin Mei hurriedly called Yin Zhu and the others in to help her change her clothes.
After she finished tidying up, Chu Lingyun arrived, his face showing fatigue. He looked at her with heavy eyes and asked in a dry, hoarse voice, "..."
"Junior sister, is something on your mind? Is it about Sun Rong?"
A look of joy flashed across Yin Liuli's face. "Senior Brother, you can speak now?"
Chu Lingyun nodded.
He spent the entire night clearing most of the remaining toxins from his body, which consumed a great deal of his internal energy.
Fortunately, I was finally able to speak to my junior sister.
The only drawback is that, perhaps due to the poison in his throat, his voice sounded like that of a seventy or eighty-year-old man whenever he opened his mouth, incredibly aged.
The junior sister will definitely not like it if she hears this.
