Chapter 918 Still won't admit it?
"I thought you'd figured things out by now after all this time, but I didn't expect you to still be so stubborn. You really have no brains at all!"
Chu Muyao's eyes were full of disdain. "Don't you think about it? If it weren't for your brainlessness and viciousness, how could the Tang family have been removed from the list in the capital?"
If you ask me, your family is incredibly unlucky to have a daughter like you!
Upon hearing Chu Muyao's words, Tang Xuening clenched her fists, her eyes filled with deep hatred.
Lately, she has heard a lot of comments about this, and it seems that everyone thinks she deserves it and that she is the one who dragged her family down.
That's why none of her family members informed her when she left the capital.
"It's all because of you! If you hadn't plotted against me, I would never have ended up like this!"
That damned Song Ruozhen! She's always been competing with me. If it weren't for her, I would be the Crown Princess now!
Upon learning that Song Ruozhen had become the Crown Princess, Tang Xuening couldn't help but vomit while she was eating.
Why?
Song Ruozhen stole everything that belonged to her, but in the end, she became the noble Crown Princess.
Even while staying in the palace, she could hear praise for Song Ruozhen and Chu Junting everywhere. The thought that Song Ruozhen might become empress in the future made her heart ache as if it had been stabbed.
"Why would I need to fight you for my sister-in-law?"
Looking at the stubborn Tang Xuening, Chu Muyao suddenly remembered what Song Jingshen had said to her before.
He said Tang Xuening was stupid. Even though the things didn't belong to her at all, she always thought they were hers, so she couldn't accept any changes.
People with this mindset are the most foolish in life, because no matter what, they will never be satisfied or happy.
"My brother has always liked my sister-in-law. Even if she hadn't appeared in the end, he would never have married you."
Look at you, you're nothing after leaving the Prime Minister's residence. But look at my sister-in-law, she's still outstanding even without the Song family.
That's the biggest difference between you two.
Tang Xuening was furious to see Chu Muyao so confidently accusing her, and immediately said:
"Chu Muyao, stop talking. If you were really so insightful and didn't fight for anything, why are you crying now?"
Tang Xuening was also puzzled. Chu Muyao had been favored in the palace since childhood. Not only did she have the Empress as her mother, but she also had the Crown Prince and Prince Yun as her two brothers. She had never suffered any loss.
It was so strange that she saw Chu Muyao crying here today.
However, for her to cry like this, something serious must have happened.
Chu Muyao naturally wouldn't give Tang Xuening the chance to laugh at her, and said coldly:
"What I cry about is none of your business. No matter how bad my life gets, I can never become like you."
Instead of wasting your time worrying about me, you should be thinking about yourself!
After saying that, Chu Muyao turned around and prepared to leave with her maid.
She knew Tang Xuening worked in the laundry department; she had seen her once before, but had forgotten about it. She never expected to run into her again today.
Seeing that Chu Muyao was about to leave, Tang Xuening quickly said, "Princess, could you please plead for me and let me leave the palace, considering our past relationship?"
The ordeal she had endured during this period had driven her to the brink of collapse, making every day she spent there exceptionally difficult.
She felt that if she continued to stay in the laundry department, she would be worn down sooner or later, especially by the nanny in charge of her duties, who was ruthless and cruel, as if she had a grudge against her!
This made her wonder if someone had deliberately given her instructions.
"Tang Xuening, are you crazy or am I crazy?"
Chu Muyao turned her head in surprise, "We have no relationship whatsoever, why do you think I would help you?"
"To you, I am nothing but a worthless life. I have nothing left. Can't you let me leave the palace?"
This could be resolved with just a word from you. Do you only feel happy when you see me die in the palace?
Tang Xuening's eyes flashed with deep resentment. Why were all these people so vicious!
Chu Muyao clicked her tongue, feeling that this woman not only did not reflect on her actions, but had become even more perverted than before.
"This is the consequence of your own actions. You have no one to blame but yourself. What does it have to do with me?"
"Tang Xuening, why were you demoted to a maid? It's because you ruined the appearance of Princess Liang."
With such a serious crime, the fact that you've been spared is already a favor to the Prime Minister.
If you're unhappy, go find Qi Qingyi. After all, I can't possibly offend Princess Liang for your sake, can I?
Chu Muyao raised an eyebrow. "You should know that Princess Liang is pregnant with twins. So many people are hoping for this. You want me to go and invite trouble under these circumstances? You must be crazy!"
"let's go!"
Seeing their princess leave, the maids all followed suit.
Watching her departing figure, Tang Xuening couldn't help but say, "That bitch Qi Qingyi is actually pregnant with twins?"
She had initially intended to destroy Qi Qingyi's face, thinking that once Qi Qingyi was disfigured, the Prince of Liang would definitely not want her anymore.
Who would have thought that this slut would have such good fortune!
"Why is it that everyone else is fine, but I'm the only one who suffers in the end?"
Tang Xuening's eyes flashed with intense hatred. "Qi Qingyi, I will never let you get away with this!"
……
The next day, at the Dali Temple.
Inside the cell, Qi Junming knelt on the ground, his clothes stained with blood.
That once unruly face had become unusually obedient, his eyes filled with deep fear and lingering dread.
"Your Highness, I was really just drunk, which is why I told my subordinates that I wanted to poison my elder brother."
I... I never expected my older brother to die like this. I'm filled with regret now.
Qi Junming's voice trembled. He really wished Qi Juncheng dead. He thought that even if he really killed him, his father would not send him to the government office as the eldest son.
After all, their father only had two legitimate sons.
If one dies, it's impossible for the other to die as well.
He never expected the news to spread so quickly, even reaching the authorities.
Even though he immediately ordered a news blackout, the matter was too big to be missed and the news still got out because his father wasn't in the mansion to oversee things.
If it were the Shuntian Prefecture that came to investigate, that would be one thing, but it turned out to be the Dali Temple.
He really regretted it!
The interrogation methods of the Dali Temple were truly terrifying, especially the way they looked at His Highness the Crown Prince. He felt that all the arguments he had prepared were utterly useless in front of them!
"Qi Junming, you still refuse to admit that you are the one who started this?"
Chu Junting casually toyed with the sharp blade in his hand. "You think we haven't investigated what you're talking about?"
