Chapter 1442: You Figured It Out? Unfortunately, It’s Too Late

Although those places were good, they were hard to survive in. An insignificant person like her would probably be trampled and ground into minced meat soon after her arrival.

“You’ll bring me to Wulong Mountain? Are you planning to use me as a shield when you’re in danger, Madam?”

“You… Blargh!”

Xue Yingyue coughed up a large mouthful of black blood.

She knew she could not survive, but she was indignant. She had schemed and spent so many years in the backyard of the Prince Zhan Yun Residence.

She had wasted her youth here, but she ended up dying a horrible death.

Anyone would be indignant about this.

“Don’t be arrogant. If the old Emperor can kill me, he can also kill you. Do you think you’ll have a good end once I die?” She clutched her chest with one hand and stared at Ling Ye with bloodthirsty eyes.

Ling Ye was just a maidservant. The old Emperor could kill her. Why would he keep her around for Qian Jiyun to discover how she died?

She could imagine how quickly the old Emperor would send people to silence Ling Ye after she died.

“Just wait! You’ll die with me!”

“Ha!” Ling Ye chuckled. “So it’s true that a centipede can die but never fall! It’s been so long, but you’re still alive. Have the poisons not been enough?”

She muttered softly, but her voice was loud enough for Xue Yingyue to hear clearly.

“If it weren’t for Prince Zhan Yun not wanting more unfamiliar eyes and ears in the Prince Zhan Yun Residence, would he have kept someone like you alive until now? The Emperor placed you in an important position, but what a mistake!

“You? You’re more of a liability than an asset. You’ve never accomplished anything for the Emperor. Madam, don’t you find your life pitiful?”

“You… You…” Xue Yingyue felt clear-headed for the first time.

Ling Ye’s words elevated Prince Zhan Yun while degrading the old Emperor. Was she not implying that the old Emperor did not know how to choose people?

So who did she work for? The old Emperor or Qian Jiyun?

“You’re actually working for Qian Jiyun, that b*stard?”

Ling Ye was silent. How did this old thing become smarter now?

“Heh! You figured it out? Unfortunately, it’s too late.”

“You, you… Pfft!”

Xue Yingyue could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, her body motionless.

In her final moments, she regretted not seeing through this woman sooner. If she had known, she would have at least informed the old Emperor about Ling Ye’s true identity and saved her life.

Unfortunately, she would never have the chance to do so again. The poison she was afflicted with was potent enough to kill her.

“You will… suffer retribution.”

In the end, she could only mutter these words. She could not say anything else. Her eyes closed slowly, and her breathing stopped.

“Retribution? You’re the only one who will suffer retribution.”

Ling Ye walked forward and kicked her. After confirming that she was dead, she turned around and ripped the curtains in the room, throwing them all over Xue Yingyue’s corpse.
