Rebirth: The Two-Faced Cook Meets the Cold-Faced King Qin
Chapter 196 The Truth
Suning walked to Concubine Yao step by step, her steps were firm and powerful.
She saluted the emperor respectfully, and that etiquette showed both respect for the imperial power and confidence in what she was doing.
She raised her head and looked directly at Concubine Yao. There was a sharp light and deep sadness in her eyes.
"Empress Yao," Su Ning said, her voice clear and firm.
"Concubine Xuan did make a mistake. Her behavior has seriously violated palace rules. But, are you not at fault?"
There was a hint of questioning and a hint of unwillingness in her tone.
Concubine Yao's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She sneered and said:
"What do you mean? What does Concubine Xuan's affairs have to do with me?"
Suning did not answer her question directly, but turned and shouted to the outside of the door: "Someone, bring Xiao Shitou!"
As she shouted, a little palace maid was brought up.
When Concubine Yao saw her, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, but then she turned into a sophistry:
"She is just a little maid in my palace. What she did has nothing to do with me!"
Su Ning took a step forward, her eyes as sharp as torches, staring directly into Concubine Yao's eyes:
"Really? Look again, who is she?"
As she spoke, she winked and the little palace maid revealed her face. It turned out to be Hua Ling!
Concubine Yao's face turned pale in an instant, she couldn't believe her eyes.
Suning continued, “Your little stone was replaced by my people the day after you gave him the task!
You think no one knows what you are doing, but in fact, I have been investigating secretly.
Now, what else do you have to say? "
Su Ning told the whole story of what Concubine Yao had done from beginning to end.
Her voice was clear and powerful, and every word was like a knife, piercing deeply into Concubine Yao's heart.
The emperor became angrier and angrier as he listened, and his face became increasingly gloomy.
Finally, he could no longer bear it and ordered that Concubine Xuan be demoted to a commoner and confined to the cold palace forever!
And Concubine Yao was executed by slow slicing!
At the moment of leaving, Concubine Yao walked past Su Ning, her eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.
She sneered and said, “You are so naive, do you think this is the end?
Do you think that if I die, you will get revenge?
Hahahaha! I tell you, Suning, this is just the beginning. After I die, there will be more people coming to seek revenge on you!
You will never escape!"
Su Ning looked at her back and felt a deep sadness in his heart.
She was thinking hard all the way, repeatedly pondering the meaning of Concubine Yao's last words.
She secretly wondered in her heart, could it be that there is an unknown force or figure hidden behind Concubine Yao?
If there really is someone else, who could it be?
She felt confused and uneasy, and was determined to solve the mystery.
At this moment, Suning had already walked to the palace gate, and the sunlight shining on her body made her look particularly bright.
At this moment, Hua Yao and Hua Ling suddenly appeared in front of her, their smiles as warm as the spring breeze.
Suning walked towards them happily, and Huayao said with a smile:
"Miss, you haven't come to see us for a long time. Why don't you come to our place to rest today?"
Su Ning nodded. She thought to herself, "Yeah, it seems like I haven't been with these two girls for a long time.
I have been so busy with palace affairs that I have neglected them."
So, Suning decided to put aside the tedious palace life temporarily and returned to Xingyue Pavilion with Hua Yao and Hua Ling.
The depth of the night is like a huge curtain, shrouding the entire world in silence.
Su Ning stood quietly by the window, staring at the night outside, with a myriad of thoughts in her mind.
Since her rebirth, everything she has experienced has been like a nightmare, full of ups and downs and challenges.
Sometimes, she even felt as if she was in a huge fog, unable to tell whether the people around her were kind or malicious.
Just as she was immersed in these disturbing thoughts, Hua Yao quietly walked up to her and said softly:
"Miss, it's getting late, you should rest."
Suning nodded slightly and didn't say much.
Seeing this, Hua Yao skillfully lit the incense. The faint fragrance filled the air, making people feel a sense of peace and tranquility.
Afterwards, Hua Yao helped Su Ning walk towards the bed. Su Ning's steps seemed a little heavy, as if every step carried endless fatigue.
Suddenly, she felt a severe headache, as if thousands of needles were piercing her brain.
She lost consciousness instantly and fell to the ground helplessly.
At this moment, Hua Yao's face suddenly changed. She looked coldly at Su Ning who was lying on the ground, sneering in her heart.
She whispered, "Suning, do you think you can be safe just by defeating Concubine Yao and removing Concubine Xuan's title?
You are so naive. From the beginning to the end, you never doubted me.
Today, I will let you go to hell and say goodbye to those people and things completely!"
As she spoke, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Hua Yao's eyes. She reached out from her bosom and pulled out a sharp dagger, ready to kill Su Ning.
However, at this critical moment, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door.
Just as Hua Yao was about to strike with the knife, Hua Ling used his body to block the fatal blow.
The dagger pierced deeply into Hua Ling's chest, and the blood instantly dyed his clothes red.
Hua Yao widened her eyes, looking at the scene in disbelief, and was shocked.
She asked in disbelief: "You...why did you suddenly appear here?
Didn't I tell you to feed the horse?"
Hua Ling had a dagger stuck in her chest and her face was as pale as paper, but she still managed to hold on and answered in a weak voice:
"Huayao, I have long suspected that you have martial arts intentions, and you are definitely not just an ordinary maid.
As expected, you actually have murderous intentions towards the young lady!"
Hua Yao frowned, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, and asked in confusion:
“How did you find out?
I thought I was very careful and cautious. Even Suning didn't notice anything unusual about me. How did you know that?"
Hua Ling explained slowly: "When you are in the pavilion every day, your smiles and frowns when you treat those guests,
And you deliberately restrain your kung fu and skillfully catch the objects that the drunk guests accidentally dropped.
What's more, you often disappear mysteriously in the middle of the night.
All this shows that you are hiding a dark secret!
The young lady once saved my life. Even if I risk my life today, I will never let you hurt her in the slightest!"
At this time, Hua Yao finally revealed her ugly face. She looked at Hua Ling coldly:
"Oh? Well then, since you want to be loyal, I will grant your wish."
So Hua Yao tapped lightly, and Hua Ling died in an instant!
At this time, Su Ning heard their conversation in a daze, her eyes were full of shock,
She used up all her strength and asked in a trembling voice: "Ling'er, why are you so stupid?
Why did you take this blow for me?"
Su Ning burst into tears. She held Hua Ling's hand tightly and sobbed:
"Ling'er, hold on, I will definitely find a way to save you!"
Su Ning's heart felt like it was being cut into pieces by a knife. She forced herself to hold on to her intoxicated body and crawled to Hua Ling's side.
But he found that Hua Ling no longer had any breath!
Su Ning gently touched Hua Ling's hair with his hand and said, "Hua Ling, your life has been miserable and rough. You have gone through the most difficult time.
I should have let you go, and now you wouldn't be in this situation!"
Hua Yao looked at Su Ning's repentant face and said, "Su Ning, you will definitely die today, so I will tell you something you have never known!
First, your biological mother did not die of natural causes. I killed her.
Second, all of Concubine Yao’s actions were ordered by me.
And third, Ye Hanxing, are you worried about him? He is doing this for you.
I went back to him to check what happened. Maybe he will never come back! I designed this!"
As Suning listened to Huayao's words, everything connected together like a movie.
She finally understood why something had always been wrong and why she always felt like something was missing. This time, everything clicked!
Hua Yao walked up to Su Ning step by step and said, "I went to your house, disguised as a maid, to steal the Xiangyun White Lotus!
I didn't expect that the second aunt would take a fancy to me and send me to you. I thought, since I'm here, I'll just be your little maid!
I didn't expect that you would join forces with Ye Hanxing, Gu Peng, Gu Yuan and others to destroy the headquarters of our Dark Council.
I have suffered heavy losses. We have to settle the accounts one by one! Right?"
Having said that, Hua Yao pulled out the dagger from Suning's body without any emotion. Suning screamed, "Ah!" because of the pain!
