Five Years Later, She Bombarded the Palace with a Miniature Version of the Regent

Changing Into the Wedding Dress to Be Sent Into the Imperial Mausoleum

The dungeon in the Prince Regent’s Mansion was damp and dark. The only source of light was from a small window. The smell of blood and decay permeated the air, and a gloomy atmosphere loomed over the dungeon. It was unknown how many people had died here.

Yu Yunxi was thrown into a cell, and she curled up in a corner, feeling very cold. She could no longer tell if her body or her heart was cold. She knew she had been careless. No matter how she thought about it, she did not expect Nanny Liu to be so ruthless. Not only was Nanny Liu ruthless to her, but Nanny Liu was even ruthless to Feng Yili.

“In the end, not only could I not save you, but I also couldn’t save myself,” Yu Yunxi muttered to herself with a bitter smile on her face.

After a few days of protecting Feng Yili with her life, she had already treated Feng Yili as an important person who was on the same side as her. Now that he was dead, she felt suffocated.

After a moment, her thoughts drifted to Jiang Ying and her nanny. She wondered what was going to happen to them. She and Feng Yili could not avoid death, and she only hoped that Jiang Ying and her nanny would not be implicated.

Yu Yunxi sat stiffly in the same position for an unknown amount of time. She did not drink a drop of water despite her burning throat. She was on the verge of collapse at this moment.

Suddenly, the sounds of footsteps rang from outside the cell. Soon enough, Nanny Liu appeared. She kicked the door open, holding a wedding dress in her hands. She looked down at Yu Yunxi and smiled sinisterly as she said, “Princess Consort, in the end, I won.”

Yu Yunxi lowered her gaze and said hoarsely, “You were the one who smeared poison on the bowl, right?”

“So what if I did? No one will believe you anyway. The imperial physicians have already concluded that His Royal Highness died from a lethal poison, and we’ve found the same poison on the clothes you wore yesterday. Now, you’re the murderer who killed His Royal Highness,” Nanny Liu said with a sneer.

Yu Yunxi looked up at Nanny Liu mockingly and said, “Let me guess again. Are you the Emperor’s man or… the Imperial Preceptor’s man? The Consort Dowager had indeed raised a wolf by the Prince Regent’s side, but the wolf isn’t me; it’s you.”

Nanny Liu’s smile widened. “You’re indeed a smart person. Alas, your surname is Yu. If you want to seek revenge from me, I’m afraid you’ll have to do it in your next life.”

Nanny Liu continued to say, “Consort Dowager Ning hates you to the bones and wants to cut you into pieces. However, because the Imperial Preceptor pleaded for you… You’ll put on this wedding dress and enter the Imperial Mausoleum with His Royal Highness tonight.”

After that, Nanny Liu put the wedding dress on Yu Yunxi.

Yu Yunxi was like a puppet at this moment, allowing the other party to roughly dress her. Her eyelashes trembled slightly as she murmured, “Now that the crime of murdering His Royal Highness has been put on my head, the Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor can seize the opportunity to push the blame to the Yu family as well… It’s really killing two birds with one stone…”

Nanny Liu cackled. “If you had pretended to be deaf and mute, perhaps you could have lived for seven days while His Royal Highness slowly died. However, you insisted on being a hero and detoxified His Royal Highness. As a result, you have to die ahead of time.”

Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed. She turned to the side and asked Nanny Liu, “How do you know I’m detoxifying His Royal Highness?”

“Your medical skills are not bad. You were able to use me as a cover and successfully changed the medicine yesterday. Alas, you were not careful enough. You didn’t remove the dregs,” Nanny Liu said in a slightly smug tone.

“As expected, you already know that the medicine His Royal Highness usually drinks is harmful. That’s why you were so flustered that day when you heard that I have medical skills. However, there’s one thing I don’t understand. You were able to detect that something is wrong from the medicinal dregs and used that to scheme against me. If so, why did you suffer losses at my hands previously? It shouldn’t be…” Yu Yunxi said weakly.

‘Why did Nanny Liu seem to have grown smarter overnight?’

Nanny Liu scoffed. She clapped her hands gleefully as she said, “Well, since you’re about to die anyway, there’s no harm in telling you some things.” She smiled proudly and continued to say, “I really didn’t think much about your ability at first, but someone reminded me. In fact, I really have to thank the Princess Consort’s younger sister for this matter. She also has some medical knowledge. She went to the kitchen yesterday and found that there was something wrong with the medicine so she gave me some advice.”

‘Yu Wanrong!’

Yu Yunxi coughed violently. The metallic taste of blood quickly filled her mouth.

Yu Yunxi’s mother was famous for her medical skills in the past. Madam Chen was jealous so she forced Yu Wanrong to learn medicine as well. For this reason, although Yu Wanrong was not highly skilled, she was still capable of differentiating the two medicines.

Yu Yunxi did not expect that the person who pushed her off the cliff in the end would be Yu Wanrong.

“Princess Consort, you really have a good sister. Let me tell you another interesting thing. I heard that the corpse of an old woman was hung on the wall in the east of the city at noon. Rumors have it that she was the wet nurse from a minister’s family. She offended the young miss of the family and was beaten to death. After that, her corpse was displayed on the streets for everyone to see,” Nanny Liu said gleefully. Then, she covered her mouth and laughed.

Yu Yunxi felt her head buzz as colors drained from her face.

Nanny Liu laughed and continued to say, “Hmm, what is the minister’s name? I think his surname is Yu…”

Yu Yunxi could no longer endure it and spat out a mouthful of blood.

‘Nanny! No wonder Jiang Ying didn’t come back after such a long time! As it turns out, something happened to Nanny!’

The hatred in Yu Yunxi’s heart was about to devour her whole at this moment. Moreover, her heart felt like it was being pierced by a thousand needles.

Nanny Liu grew happier when she saw the state Yu Yunxi was in. She grabbed Yu Yunxi and dragged her out as she said, “Princess Consort, you don’t have to be anxious. Soon, you’ll be able to see His Royal Highness and your nanny.”

When Yu Yunxi was dragged out of the dungeon, the sky was already dark.

On the contrary, the Prince Regent’s Residence was brightly lit.

The guards held torches and surrounded the entrance of the dungeon. Not far away, the loud sounds of someone crying rang in the air.

Yu Yunxi saw Consort Dowager Ning. Her hair was disheveled, and her eyes were red. She looked like a resentful ghost who wanted nothing more than to flay Yu Yunxi alive.

At the same time, a young man dressed in black stood behind the Consort Dowager Ning. He was slender and had an aloof but deceptively gentle air about him.

Yu Yunxi raised her head with great difficulty. Before she could take a closer look at the other party’s face, she was knocked at the back of her head.

Before Yu Yunxi completely lost consciousness, she heard the other party say, “Consort Dowager, don’t worry. My master has already placed a spell on her. After her death, whenever she’s reincarnated, she’ll only be a slave and livestock to atone for her sins against the Prince Regent and the Imperial Family.”

‘Ha… How vicious…’

This was the last thought in Yu Yunxi’s mind before she fell unconscious.
