Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 774 - 641: The Truth Revealed, Ugly Faces Exposed
"No! It’s all fake, Qing Feng, you’ve been dead for a long time. Why is your yin soul lingering? I know, all of this, it’s all fake."
Empress Qing Shuang cried out in alarm, her hands flailing in front of her eyes, trying to dispel the illusions.
As the illusions faded away like a retreating tide, memories flooded in like a surging tide.
A few Dead Butterflies fluttered in the Heming Palace.
The Empress’s body swayed, as if about to fall.
That moment, countless gazes fell upon her.
No more reverence, only disdain.
In the eyes of the people and officials, the Empress, who was high above and just, once she tore off her ugly coat, had such an ugly soul.
The disaster from more than ten years ago was laid bare at this moment.
The Prince Feng couple, it turned out, were victims of the murder ordered by the Empress.
The entire court, the Feng Lan couple, and the countless guests who were there for the ceremony, were all silent.
Only countless sharp glares pierced straight into the heart of the Empress.
"Qing Shuang, none of this is fake. It’s all your conspiracy," Qing Feng said, looking at the crazed Empress, his gaze cold, without a trace of warmth.
It wasn’t until she personally witnessed the bloody disaster from more than a decade ago that she realized – the affection Prince Feng had for her was in no way inferior to hers.
He never talked about retiring early to return to his fields.
"I’m sorry, Feng’er," the man’s strong hand tightly gripped Qing Feng’s hand.
Feng Lan’s eyes brimmed with tears, he gripped Qing Feng’s hand tightly, and this time, he would never let go again.
This time, there was nothing between them about life and death, nor the Empress, only the decade of time that they had lost.
Feng Lan was willing to spend the rest of his life making up for it to Qing Feng.
"You two, you can’t be together, you just can’t!" Empress twisted her face and rushed forward to fight with Qing Feng.
"Qing Shuang, the state you’ve come to today, it’s all brought about by your own actions," Feng Lan protected Qing Feng resolutely pushing away the Empress.
Just as the Empress was about to fall to the ground, Chen Tuo stepped forward and quickly supported her.
"Your Majesty, calm down." Chen Tuo never expected the disgraceful acts he and the Empress committed years ago would come to light one day.
To plot against the princes of the dynasty and to slaughter innocent soldiers, just this point alone made it impossible for Chen Tuo to stand in the army anymore.
His reputation completely ruined, but he was still clear in his mind that as long as the Empress was still there, he still had a glimmer of hope to win back the hearts of the people.
But the Empress didn’t appreciate his feelings at all; as soon as Chen Tuo approached, the Empress pushed him away with brute force, and in the tussle, her headdress was caught by the sleeve of Chen Tuo’s clothes.
Someone cried out in alarm. By the time Chen Tuo realized it, he found a heavy wig in his hand.
Hesitating, he followed the collective gaze of everyone looking towards the Empress.
"Monster!" Chen Tuo retreated in shock, nearly falling to the ground. He threw the wig from his hands like it was a hot potato, his eyes filled with disgust and revulsion when looking at the Empress.
Against the backdrop of a fiery red wedding dress, the Empress’s bald head had not a single hair, like a cracked egg.
Not only that, but the Empress’s makeup, smudged by sweat and tears, was a mess.
Her meticulously drawn eyebrows, her bright red lips, were all smeared at this moment. Her face looked like a big dyeing workshop, every color imaginable, the ugliness was unspeakable.
The Empress covered her face and sobbed painfully. She staggered out of the crowd and bumped into someone who had just hurried over.
"Your Majesty, what happened, your hair... Your Majesty, you’ve been poisoned. I just realized something was wrong with Little Qiang and Xiao Wei when I got back to the Dan Palace." Alchemist Chen Hongru, who went out searching for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for Artifact Refining, suddenly sensed the star symbolizing the Beiqing Empress dimming in the sky. Knowing that something bad had happened, he quickly returned to Beiqing.
He had just returned to the Dan Palace when he found that all the materials he had prepared for the World’s First Refining had been stolen.
Inside the Dan Palace, several Alchemists of Eighth to Ninth Rank had become foolishly dazed these past few days.
Elder Ying and Xue Pianran had also disappeared without a trace.
Chen Hongru was greatly alarmed, and upon investigation, he discovered that all these incidents were related to his personal Maid.
He remembered the day when he sent "Little Qiang" to deliver medicine to the Imperial Palace. In a rush of panic, he arrived only to witness the scene of the Empress in a disheveled state.
Grasping the wrist of the Empress, Chen Hongru immediately detected an Abnormal Poison in her body.
Poison? It was all because of the poisoning that she had become like this.
The Empress suddenly regained consciousness, her eyes once again sharp and astute as they shone red.
She had been confused and lost for days, all because of the poisoning.
Where did the poison come from? It was like a flash of lightning, intertwining all events.
Needless to say, the instigator behind these events must be Qingfeng.
Qingfeng, her beloved sister, yet over the years, she, as a sister, really had been blind.
The Empress turned around, her gaze piercing, aimed directly at Qingfeng standing behind Feng Lan.
That face was even more enchanting than it had been a decade ago, her hair as black and smooth as silk; the merciless scythe of time had left not a single mark on Qingfeng’s body.
Yet she herself had been wrecked to this ghostly state.
"Chen Hongru, Qingfeng and Feng Lan have poisoned and plotted against me. I order you and Chen Tuo to eradicate them. Those who achieve great merit will be richly rewarded," the Empress hated to the extreme, her once beautiful eyes now only held coldness and the intent to kill.
Chen Hongru and Chen Tuo, among others, couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
However, both of them, cunning and sly as they were, had weighed the situation and decided to support the Empress and kill Feng Lan and Qingfeng.
"All troops heed my command, execute the traitorous couple, Feng Lan and Qingfeng."
The sound of clashing weapons roared like thunder, and a great number of soldiers charged into the Heming Palace.
Amidst the flicker of sword shadows, Princess Qingfeng couldn’t help but tighten her grip on Feng Lan’s hand.
Feng Lan, however, gave her a faint smile. Holding the Commander’s Seal in his hand, he bellowed with the force of a thunderclap.
"All officials and soldiers heed my command, the Commander’s Seal is here, who dares to act rashly!"
The soldiers of the Imperial Army in the grand hall, upon seeing the Commander’s Seal, started to hesitate.
In Beiqing, the military obeys the Commander’s Seal.
The Empress, in an attempt to win Feng Lan’s favor, had given him the Commander’s Seal, but she never expected that today, Feng Lan would use it against her.
Although Empress and Chen Tuo were caught off guard, Chen Tuo snorted coldly almost immediately.
"Feng Lan, what good is having the Commander’s Seal? Great Elder Chang Luo!" After speaking, the Great Elder Chang Luo and Chen Mu stepped forward.
Behind them followed nearly a hundred disciples of the Hunyuan Sect, all of whom were armed with Spiritual Artifacts. It seemed that the Empress had come prepared today.
But what the Empress had guarded against was not Qingfeng, but the Feng Residence!
The situation suddenly became tense.
The two parties stood on opposite sides, facing each other.
"Qingshuang, have you really thought this through? Today, it is you who have destroyed the many years of friendship between me, Feng’er, and yourself. Since it has come to this, do not blame me for being ruthless," Feng Lan looked deeply at Qingshuang, his eyes filled with nothing but helplessness.
