Chapter 526 Joy of Life 82

Li Yunrui's whole body began to tremble with excitement, and even his voice became sharp and crazy: "Since that's the case, then I'll play with him even more, destroy him ruthlessly, make you suffer and despair, and make all your hard work vanish into nothingness!"

At this point, her tone became even more fanatical, almost roaring: "The more you value him, the more successful my plan will be. You suffer more than I imagined, don't you? You dare not like me, but your son is infatuated with me, extremely infatuated. With just a snap of my fingers, he can immediately kneel at my feet."

Li Yunrui used the harshest words she could think of to pierce Emperor Qing's already numb heart: "So it really was you who seduced him."

Before arriving at Guangxin Palace, Emperor Qing still harbored a sliver of hope.

Hopefully, all of this is a scheme by Chen Pingping and others, and not a genuine affair between Li Yunrui and the Crown Prince.

But Li Yunrui's words ruthlessly shattered his illusions, revealing the naked truth to him.

In an instant, Emperor Qing's eyes turned as cold as frost, and two more people were added to his death list.

Li Yunrui, however, remained immersed in his victory, his eyes filled with the joy of successful revenge.

Upon hearing Emperor Qing's question, she laughed somewhat hysterically, her sharp, piercing laughter echoing throughout the palace: "I, Li Yunrui, am the most beautiful woman in the world. Isn't it normal for him to like me?"

As she spoke, she actually reached out a hand and stroked Emperor Qing's cheek, saying with a fascinated expression, "Brother Emperor, you like me too, don't you?"

Emperor Qing frowned in disgust, released her hand, and threw her onto the low couch. He watched her cough as she lay on the couch, coldly saying, "Shameless!"

Upon hearing those two words, Li Yunrui's emotions erupted once again.

However, Emperor Qing's illusions had been shattered, and he was unwilling to stay there any longer, so he turned around and left.

However, just as Li Yunrui could easily touch Emperor Qing's sore spot, Emperor Qing could also retaliate by saying, "You will never be as good as Ye Qingmei."

These words pierced Li Yunrui's heart like a sharp blade.

Ignoring her cough, she staggered to her feet and stood in front of Emperor Qing, her eyes burning with anger and resentment: "Then how much cleaner are you than me? Back then, Chen Pingping traveled thousands of miles to save you, risking his life to save you, but what did you do? You snatched his beloved into the palace to be his concubine!"

Her voice trembled with excitement, and her tone became increasingly sharp: "Chen Pingping and Consort Ning were your saviors, but what did you do? You tore them apart, forcibly brought Consort Ning into the palace, and then allowed the Empress Dowager to order her to die. In terms of shamelessness, how can I compare to you?"

Li Yunrui thought these words would surely enrage Emperor Qing, but to her surprise, Emperor Qing's expression remained unusually calm.

However, a meaning she couldn't quite decipher flickered in her eyes: "You're trying to sow discord between me and Chen Pingping, heh heh."

"You lot, on the surface you have to submit to me, but in reality you each harbor your own ulterior motives, plotting ridiculous schemes to seize power from me. But..." Emperor Qing's voice was deep, each word carrying immense weight.

His hand gripped Li Yunrui's slender neck again, the force heavier than before, his knuckles turning white from the pressure.

The veins on the back of his hand bulged slightly, a testament to the force he used: "Do you really think these despicable tactics can shake me? I can tolerate your ambition, but I will never allow you to betray or disobey me."

Seeing the surging resentment in Li Yunrui's eyes, Emperor Qing mercilessly added fuel to the fire: "You will never be as good as Ye Qingmei, much less her son. The Imperial Treasury, which you currently control, I will hand over to Fan Xian; your daughter will also marry Fan Xian. And you..."

"I can only die here with the palace servants in Guangxin Palace and disappear from this world completely."

Every word Emperor Qing uttered was like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into Li Yunrui's heart. Her eyes gradually shifted from initial anger to despair, and finally to madness, as if the entire world had collapsed at that moment.

However, Emperor Qing's gaze remained icy cold, devoid of any pity.

Emperor Qing's words did not indicate his intention to continue using Fan Xian. From the moment he realized that Chen Pingping and others wanted to push Fan Xian onto the throne, Fan Xian's only fate was death.

However, this did not stop him from using such words to provoke Li Yunrui and increase her hatred.

Just as he had predicted, Li Yunrui couldn't suppress the murderous intent he felt towards Emperor Qing deep down.

Her beautiful eyes were bloodshot from suffocation, and she frantically pounded on Emperor Qing's chest with her hands, trying to break free from this restraint.

However, Emperor Qing's hand was like an iron clamp, and no matter how she struggled, there was no sign of him loosening his grip. His indifferent expression made Li Yunrui feel a deep sense of fear.

This fear stems not only from physical oppression, but also from an instinctive resistance to death.

Emperor Qing seemed to have seen something amusing, and a sarcastic smile suddenly appeared on his face: "You're actually afraid of death?"

As he spoke, he suddenly released his grip on her throat and took a few steps back with a cold expression.

Suddenly released from control, Li Yunrui collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, instinctively opening her mouth wide and greedily gulping in air.

But her eyes were fixed blankly on Emperor Qing, and she said haltingly, "In the end... you still can't bear to... kill me."

Just then, a loud banging came from outside the door, and the Empress Dowager's voice called out, "My son—"

Upon hearing the sound, Emperor Qing briefly glanced at the doorway before turning his gaze back to Li Yunrui.

Just as he left the Eastern Palace, he had already ordered a major purge.

All the eunuchs and palace maids serving in the Eastern Palace were slaughtered without exception, leaving no one alive.

At this time, Emperor Qing had already begun to consider deposing the crown prince, but this royal scandal absolutely could not be made public.

Therefore, not only the Eastern Palace, but also all the palace staff of Guangxin Palace underwent a major purge.

Even other people outside the palace who might know about the scandal were ordered to be executed by Emperor Qing.
