扒开女人两片毛茸茸黑森林

Zhao Yiqin’s jade face was stained with blood. She dropped the sword and turned her head to smile at Ye Mu.

“Thank you Miss Ye for your concern for my safety. I have misunderstood you. There actually was a thief!”

She used her own hand to wipe the blood off, before coldly sneering, “But everything is fine now. Since this person is dead, I am safe. If there is nothing else, Miss Ye should go back to the emperor’s side!”

For a split second, Ye Mu was astonished but she quickly recovered her cool. She watched the fire burning not far from where they stood; as it continued to burn, black smoke soared up into the sky. However, not a single person tried to stop the fire. Ye Mu couldn’t help but lightly chuckle.

“Empress Dowager is so decisive. Ye Mu must concede. Since the thief is already dead, then Ye Mu will take her leave. I hope Empress Dowager makes sure to rest up. Don’t let what happened unsettle you.”

After finishing speaking, she left accompanied by the people she brought. Notably, Ye Mu wasn’t feigning her calm demeanor. Obtaining information on Zhao Yiqin’s scandal was actually easier than expected. Since the flower knight from today was of little significance, Zhao Yiqin killed him off to defend herself. Even so, she couldn’t completely hide the truth. They simply have to wait and see!

After Ye Mu left with the guards, Zhao Yiqin’s trusted aides promptly tried to control the flames. However, the fire was too big and nearly destroyed the entire courtyard. Zhao Yiqin glanced over at the corpse on the ground, her eyes holding evil intentions… when suddenly two people came in to drag the dead body away.

“Where are you towing the body?” Zhao Yiqin asked menacingly.

The two servants who were in the process of disposing of the body knelt down! They stuttered, “Tak-taking it to the unmarked burial-mounds…?”

“Idiots!” Zhao Yiqin pointed to the courtyard on the other side and said angrily, “Can’t you see the big fire over there? Just drag it over there and burn it. Don’t leave behind any evidence!”

“Yes, definitely, we will do as commanded!”

The two servants rushed away. Meanwhile, Zhao Yiqin gazed at the sky with slightly warped eyes as the large flame continued to grow.

“Empress Dowager, in this maid’s opinion, it would seem the emperor is watching us intently…”

Zhao Yiqin snorted, “I had assumed the emperor would kill Wen Ze or possibly even engage in conflict with the Wen family to preserve his image. I never would have thought he would outsmart the situation and come up with the method of covering gossip by creating other rumors. He is truly vile!”

“Then, what should we do now?” asked the senior maid with a frown.“That Ye Mu is also not an easy person to handle. She relies on the emperor’s limitless doting, such that she isn’t afraid of doing anything. Whoever dares to obstruct her path would be beaten down regardless of the laws. How can that be considered proper? For us, she is truly a big obstacle.”

Her words made Zhao Yiqin’s eyes light up.

“You’re right.” Zhao Yiqin said cooly. Her bloodstained face highlighted her disturbing appearance.

“Looks like it is time to get rid of her!”

“How would we achieve that?” the trusted aide asked, “She doesn’t leave the imperial palace often and she is also very secretive. Even the death of 500 skilled martial art masters from a few years back couldn’t even be connected to her! Without any inside information, how can we make any move against her?”

Recounting the incident from the past, Zhao Yiqin despised Ye Mu even more! Her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging into her skin. “In that case, let’s settle the past and current grudges together in one go!”

Her pearly eyes turned to look at her servant as she said maliciously, “As for Ye Mu, she isn’t invincible. Doesn’t she go to the Tianshou Temple every month? I still have the Silent Master who can act for my sake.”

Bringing up the Silent Master, the old maid became quiet as Zhao Yiqin whispered her plan into the servant’s ear,

“Will this plan work?” The senior maid was shocked! She gravely muttered, “The Silent Master and Ye Mu have a pretty good relationship, so he couldn’t possibly agree to this right?”

Zhao Yiqin scoffed, “These past few years, if it hadn’t been for me who told the Silent Master to look after her, how could that slut be doing so well? You simply need to go and tell him what I’ve said, whether he agrees or not isn’t his decision to make!”

The old maid nodded, bowed, and quickly retreated.

Zhao Yiqin watched the figure disappear into the distance. The black smoke and flames continued to rage behind her, and she couldn’t help but laugh grimly.

“Oh Ye Mu, dearest Ye Mu, it was you who first courted death. You can’t blame me for doing this!”
