Imperial Plot - C248 inaction

She had to figure out why she had died in the Ministry of Justice prison. Where did the poison come from? How could the Ministry of Justice prison be so careless?!

How many people had interfered?

In this palace, one could not tolerate a child? A child who doesn’t know anything must be put to death before he is willing to give up?

That would be too cold-blooded and heartless.

How was she supposed to survive in a place like this where she ate human flesh and drank human blood?!

Su Zeyi had already received the Ministry of Justice’s message, and he was equally anxious, afraid that the Zhong Miao Yi would not be able to receive the message.

Sure enough, she had arrived so quickly.

“Miaoyi.” Su Zeyi pulled her back, trying to calm her down, “Don’t be anxious, listen to us.”

The Zhong Miao Yi walked too quickly and panted heavily. She did not say a word and only stared at Su Zeyi.

“There are a lot of strange things about this. But people commit suicide and the poison is hidden in their mouth. The poison won’t take effect immediately. They should have taken it on the way to the Ministry of Justice.” Su Zeyi sighed, he had already been poisoned before he got to the Ministry of Justice, so the Ministry of Justice naturally could not figure it out, “Last night, we did not even use any torture, and the two of them died from the poison.

“The Emperor clearly knows who did this!” Zhong Miao Yi’s heart felt as if it was on fire. “Since we clearly know that she is the emperor’s own child, will she still be so calm?!”

Su Zeyi was stunned, her question was like a giant hammer hitting him in the chest.

Indeed, he knew who was the most likely person to do this, and he also knew why they would do this. In order to avoid such a thing, he was already trying his best to comfort them and to let them rain as much as possible.

However, the effect wasn’t obvious. Once the seed was planted, it might not be so easy to dig it out.

Su Zeyi knew that he had let down the trust and trust of the Zhong Miao Yi. Sometimes accidents happen so suddenly.

“Then how does the Emperor plan to deal with this matter?” Zhong Miao Yi looked at Su Zeyi, hoping that he would give his an answer that she could accept.

But Su Zeyi fell into silence.

Without evidence, he couldn’t possibly identify anyone for no reason. Furthermore, Empress Dowager Xi was right behind Yun Mengqi, so he didn’t know whether or not the Zhou family had joined in the battle.

This matter was already something that was impossible to resolve with a Zhong Miao Yi that was satisfied. No matter what he said, she would be destined to disappoint this Zhong Miao Yi, so Su Zeyi was actually at a loss as to what to say.

Zhong Miao Yi sighed helplessly, she knew that she was really making trouble for Su Zeyi without reason, but no matter who it was, it would be hard for them to remain calm.

He didn’t let Su Zeyi see the slip of paper and the medicine Zhong Miao Yi he had found behind him because he wanted to wait for Su Zeyi to punish him if he hesitated, but then he would give him a little stimulation.

But now, it seemed, it was no longer necessary.

“I’ve troubled the emperor too much.” Zhong Miao Yi lowered his eyes and took a step back.

Sitting at that position, it was extremely difficult for Yun Mengqi to overthrow him. But now, she couldn’t even touch Yun Mengqi.

The Zhong Miao Yi finally understood that feeling.

Su Zeyi would also not stay away from Yun Mengqi for too long. Even if he was given some proper punishment, when the time came, they would still want to meet again.

As long as Empress Dowager Xi was still alive, and as long as the Zhou family was still around, this harem would never have the day where Yun Mengqi fell.

This kind of realization made Zhong Miao Yi feel despair. Moreover, she could not give up, other than blaming herself for not being careful enough, other than scheming every step of the way from now on, she had no other way.

“Does the emperor still remember the things he taught me when I was young?” The Zhong Miao Yi had not mentioned about her childhood for many years. Su Zeyi was stunned for a moment, as she did not understand what she meant.

“I have always remembered the things that you have taught me, but I have not used these things for a long time. I want to live a simpler life, not that tired, but now it seems like it won’t work, how many people do you think can compare to the Zhong Miao Yi in the past?” Zhong Miao Yi’s tone was faint, she didn’t even want to change back to her previous self. That wasn’t her, it was merely someone Su Zeyi had created for the sake of power.

Su Zeyi was startled, he then sighed: “Other than us, no one else can match me.”

Su Zeyi had almost changed Zhong Miao Yi into someone else. She had changed a lot in the past few years, so Su Zeyi thought that she had already forgotten about the things in the past.

It seemed like she didn’t have it. She just didn’t want to remember, accept, or use it.

But now, for Zhong Jiming’s sake, she had actually reached such a state?

“Miao Yi, there’s no need for you to act this way.” Su Zeyi pitied her, “There will be a day when I will help you seek justice.”

“What day will it be one day?” Zhong Miao Yi raised her head and looked at Su Zeyi, “What if I die before that day comes?”

“Don’t spout nonsense. You won’t die, me.”

“It’s impossible for the emperor to protect me at all times. Before the emperor promises, I can only try my best to live on, try my best to let it be known that I’m still alive, otherwise, how am I going to survive?” Zhong Miao Yi took out a letter and poison from her sleeves that she prepared beforehand, and handed them over to Su Zeyi, “Your Majesty, please take a look at what exactly they want.”

Su Zeyi took the thing from him. “What is this?”

Zhong Miao Yi raised her chin and said softly, “Your Majesty, you will understand once you open it yourself. “It’s hard to say.”

Su Zeyi was a little hesitant, he felt that this was the thing that made the Zhong Miao Yi make up her mind to fight back. She had not taken it out previously, why would he keep it?

Su Zeyi did not speak, he opened the letter to read. Although the letter was simple, the meaning was clear.

This bag contained chronic poison. If used for a long period of time, it would cause one’s entire body to become bloodshot. It was a terrifying sight to behold.

This kind of sinister food was for the Zhong Miao Yi to eat.

Su Zeyi could not believe his own eyes. Had they already become this vicious?

Su Zeyi originally thought that at most, it would just be a small fight between women, and it wouldn’t be a big problem.

But from the looks of it, it was not that simple, this group of women wanted Zhong Miao Yi to live a life worse than death, and live the rest of his life?! They knew how important a woman’s face was, but not only did they want to disfigure Zhong Miao Yi’s face, they also wanted to destroy her entire body.

Su Zeyi placed his heart on the table and fell into silence.
