Chapter 546: Chapter 546 Retribution for Evil(9)_1

At this moment, if only Saknu would let her go, she was willing to be the lowliest palace maid.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world. Saknu’s anger was in full swing. Wouldn’t he let her go just because of her pleas and a few tears, especially since he was never a kind man!

"Ha, didn’t you say that you were willing to serve this king and satisfy this king? Let me see if your flower is indeed red!" While saying this, there was a ’rip’ sound, and Hong Rui’s clothes had already been ripped from her body.

Anxiang was much smarter than Hongrui. She had been standing near the door, and after seeing the tragic sight of Princess Zhao Yang, she had tip-toed outside. Once outside, she ran to the place where the Empress was temporarily staying, as if a wolf was chasing her.

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager..."

Anxiang was crying and running, her heart full of fear.

She had no idea that the Empress was sending them to such a beast. If she had known this, she would rather remain the lowliest palace maid in the palace, than suffer such torture. Being a palace maid just needed diligence and could at least preserve her life, but being that man’s concubine was simply more terrifying than death itself.

In the inn

Empress Mo was wearing a wide-sleeved long robe with Phoenix and Peony patterns, with a Nine-tailed Phoenix Hairpin, and leaning softly on the babu bed. Her languid yet dignified demeanor was somewhat similar to her son’s.

She was in a bad mood today.

An Le was poisoned and was on the verge of death. Although she doesn’t care about An Le’s survival, she had to consider the aftermath of her death.

Upon An Le’s death, Saknu, who cared so much about her, would definitely protest and the Emperor, who always avoids trouble, would inevitably try his best to appease him.

How to appease him? Saknu didn’t lack gold and silver treasures, only a royal consort. Empress Jin Guifei and her son will definitely intervene, urging the Emperor to marry Princess Zhaoyang to Saknu. Would the Emperor listen to their malicious advice and marry Zhaoyang to Saknu?

Thinking about this, Empress Mo’s face seemed to be coated with frost.

Empress Jin Guifei was sinister and had tripped her constantly for many years, trying to push her down. If not for her cold-heartedness and some extreme tactics, Empress Mo would have probably ended up just like her sister.

At first, her sister, a legitimate eldest daughter from Duke Li Guo’s Mansion and as the crowned wife of Emperor Jin Ming, was the empress of the Great Jin Nation. However, she was murdered by the slut, Jin Guifei, who came from a whorehouse. She was unable to save her child in her belly. Hence, she made a decision to become a powerful figure when she entered the palace, to never be as weak as her sister, otherwise, not only her, but even her son and daughter would end up with the same fate as her sister’s child.

If An Le were to die, Jin Guifei would definitely try to marry Zhaoyang to Saknu. Saknu’s heinous acts were known far and wide. Zhaoyang was only a spoiled child, and she was sure if put in his hands, Zhaoyang wouldn’t even survive a year, and would die from torture. Therefore, she must find a way to stop her– she can’t let her get her way!

"Empress Dowager... Empress Dowager, save us..."

Outside the door, a woman’s heart-wrenching cries rang out, as if the sky was falling. She cried out loudly: "I am your servant, Anxiang, seeking an audience with the Empress Dowager. Oh, Empress Dowager, there’s been a serious issue..."

Hearing this, Empress Mo’s face turned grave instantly. Anxiang was the maid she had given to Mu Caiwei.

She aimed to gain Saknu’s favor along with Mu Caiwei. She had always been worried that Caiwei would seek revenge in Liaodan, taking advantage of Saknu’s favor towards her which would be detrimental to them. So, she carefully selected Hongrui and Anxiang to keep Caiwei’s favor divided, and also to persuade Saknu in their favor which would aid in her grand scheme for her children’s future.

But what happened now? Anxiang has returned crying and wailing. Could it be that Mu Caiwei is dead?

"Li Zequan, go and see what’s going on," Empress Mo ordered coldly, feeling very anxious. Although she disliked Mu Caiwei, she genuinely did not want her to die! If she were to die, the biggest victim would be her Zhaoyang!

Soon, Li Zequan returned looking flustered. As he entered, he said, "Your majesty, there’s been a major disaster! The princess, she, she, she..."

Li Zequan kept stuttering and didn’t manage to get his words out. He sighed deeply with tears in his eyes.

When Empress Mo heard that it was about Zhaoyang, she instantly got anxious and sat upright, demanding, "What happened, tell me clearly, what happened to Zhaoyang? Where is Zhaoyang?"

Li Zequan, with a sad face, said, "Your majesty, please don’t panic, let Anxiang explain it to you."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and a palace maid standing by the door bowed her head and left. Within a moment, she brought Anxiang in.

"Empress Dowager..."

As soon as Anxiang saw Empress Mo, she immediately knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "Your majesty, quickly send someone to save the princess. She was... she was... by Saknu..."

Without her having to finish her sentence, Empress Mo understood everything. She had a pale face, clutching her chest, trembling as she asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

Anxiang sobbed and nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Your majesty, hurry and send someone to see, if it’s too late, I’m afraid the princess will be in danger..."
