Chapter 419 The Ugly Queen's Smile: Fate Uncertain (1)
Chen Yin was held down tightly, and his entire body was covered in wine countless times.
He trembled all over, fainted twice in agony, and was revived by being splashed with water.
Finally, the ordeal ended, and they carried him to bed.
Chen Yin thought he could finally rest for a while, but then he heard Xiao Wan's voice say, "Everyone, go down and bring in His Majesty's male favorites."
what?
Male concubine?
Chen Yin looked outside in horror, and sure enough, another thin beggar had entered.
He wanted to escape, but he couldn't.
So what's the point of washing it so clean?
Chen Yin closed his eyes; he desperately wanted to die!
On the other side, the Empress Dowager had just finished kneeling down to massage Su Dingding.
When she returned home, she heard about the torment the Emperor was suffering, and she felt anxious and uneasy.
Her plan must be put on the agenda.
The next day, when Su Dingding was having breakfast, he immediately realized that the food had been poisoned.
The palace maid who was tasting the food looked terrible. She knew the food was poisoned, but she had no choice but to eat it.
After tasting the food, she quietly stepped back and handed the chopsticks to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager served Su Dingding breakfast and said cautiously, "Empress, it's time to eat."
"Hmm." Su Dingding personally picked up a dish and placed it in front of the Empress Dowager. "I'm giving you this dish. Eat it all, and don't leave a single bite for me."
"Me, eat?" The Empress Dowager asked anxiously. "I am not worthy to eat Her Majesty the Empress's breakfast."
"What, do you want me to feed you?" Su Dingding asked, tilting her head.
The Empress Dowager had no choice but to bite the bullet and finish the dish. Then she looked at Su Dingding and said, "What would the Empress like to eat? This old servant will serve you."
"Hehe." Su Dingding laughed.
She didn't speak, but just stared at the Empress Dowager and kept smiling.
"puff!"
The palace maid who was tasting the food first spat out a mouthful of blood and slowly collapsed to the ground.
The Empress Dowager shuddered in terror. She couldn't let her death go to waste; she had to take Su Dingding with her. So, she began trying to force poisoned food into Su Dingding's mouth.
Unfortunately, before he could even touch Su Dingding, he was kicked away.
The Empress Dowager coughed up blood and suffered excruciating stomach pain.
She knew she was going to die. She looked towards the direction of Chen Yin's palace. In the end, her mother, the Empress Dowager, was unable to help her.
"Empress Dowager!"
The old nanny who served the Empress Dowager rushed forward, and after seeing that the Empress Dowager was dead, she also committed suicide.
"Drag them all out and throw them into the dry well," Su Dingding said dismissively.
Aside from losing a bit of fun, it had no impact on her whatsoever.
The concubines in the palace were also making their own plans.
Some of them thought about how to save the emperor and kill Yan Ruyu, while others thought about how to please Yan Ruyu and survive in the harem.
Of course, some remained neutral, hiding in their own palaces and refusing to come out.
Those concubines who harbored ulterior motives towards Su Dingding all met tragic ends.
Even if they remain inactive, those who took advantage of the original owner's misfortune in the previous life have all been banished to the cold palace.
The chaotic and polluted palace was soon cleaned up by Su Dingding.
Apart from Chen Yin, who was busy day and night in his palace, the entire palace was peaceful.
Gangzi also managed the court affairs...in a complete mess.
Under its leadership, the entire foreign land plummeted, declining day by day, and gradually decayed.
The courtiers did nothing but fawn over it.
Gangzi receives all sorts of flattering gifts every day.
It was nothing more than a big, talking green worm, but the ministers treated it with utmost respect.
In just one month, the foreign people were living in misery.
At this point, Su Dingding began writing letters to the original owner's parents.
Foreign lands are already in the hands of the Su Kingdom.
At that time, she, the eldest princess of the Su Kingdom and the empress of a foreign land, will be the most honored woman.
Chen Yin had been tortured beyond recognition, and his mental state was also not good.
Sometimes she would even talk to herself, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing.
He would run around the palace without clothes every day.
If he sees a beggar or a lowly servant, he will lie down on the bed and wait for his favor.
Upon hearing the news from the palace, the Qian Prince, who was far away at the border, rushed back with his troops day and night.
Prince Qian was Chen Yin's younger brother and also a remarkable general.
Thinking of his mother's tragic death and his brother's suffering, he was extremely anxious.
He had a smooth journey, knowing full well it was a trap, yet he could only willingly fall into it.
Upon arriving at Chen Yin's palace, the Prince Qian's voice trembled as he saw the person inside, "Royal brother? Are you the royal brother?"
Chen Yin turned his head and saw a man enter.
He immediately jumped onto the bed and lay there motionless.
Prince Qian did not take off his clothes, and Chen Yin thought he didn't like it, so he changed his posture.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing? Put your clothes on!" Prince Qian's eyes reddened as he wrapped Chen Yin's body in the blanket and shouted, "Guards! Guards!"
Xiao Wan led her people in.
"Greetings, Prince Qian!"
"Why are you treating His Majesty like this? Don't you all want your heads? Where is the Empress?!"
The Prince of Qian was menacing; he was allowed to enter the palace with a sword, determined to kill Su Dingding.
Xiao Wan looked at him, feeling a little scared, but she did not back down. "Your Highness, the Empress is resting. Please leave His Majesty's palace. His Majesty also needs to rest."
"What are you, a mere palace maid? How dare you speak to me like that!"
Before the Prince of Qian could finish speaking, Su Dingding's voice came from outside, "Who do you think you are, daring to speak to my palace maid like that?"
Xiao Wan turned around, her heart filled with excitement.
The Empress is so good to her; being able to follow the Empress in this life is simply the greatest blessing for her.
The Prince of Qian frowned and looked at Su Dingding.
"You are Yan Ruyu?"
She was indeed an ugly woman; most of her face was covered in red birthmarks, and her eyes shone with a cold light. She was clearly not someone to be trifled with.
“Prince Qian, I have been waiting for you for a long time.” Su Dingding took a few steps forward.
This Prince Qian didn't do anything to wrong the original owner in his previous life, but he wasn't a good person either.
Snakes and rats are in cahoots. In order to consolidate his throne, Chen Yin killed all his brothers except for his younger brother, Prince Qian, under various pretexts.
Both of her younger sisters were married off to distant places for political reasons.
Even his own younger brother, Prince Qian, was not trusted to be stationed at the border, and he would only return once a year.
The Prince of Qian was also constantly expanding his power, ready to kill Chen Yin and ascend the throne at any time.
The two brothers' struggle for the throne in their previous lives ultimately ended with the tragic death of Prince Qian.
This life is different; neither of the two brothers will survive.
The Prince of Qian raised his sword to stab Su Dingding, but the tip of the sword bounced back when it touched Su Dingding's chest.
The sword, broken into several pieces, pierced the body of the Qian King.
He looked at Su Dingding in disbelief, even breathing was painful.
"How could this be?" King Qian knew that the princess of Su Kingdom was powerful, but he never expected that a woman could be so powerful.
"Guards! The Prince of Qian has murdered the emperor and usurped the throne. Throw him into the imperial prison!"
