Chapter 5
Chapter 5 — The Lord gave my whole family the crime of Tru Di, I smiled and turned around to besiege the city
Speaking of this. She paused slightly. Obviously, he no longer wanted to call Quan Huyen Chieu his superior.
"The day before that person ordered the confiscation of the Nguyet family's assets."
“How desperate we were.”
I look at Thanh Dai. A warm current welled up in my heart. She grew up with me since she was little. Named dentist. But actually. More like my biological sister than anyone else. The day the Nguyet family was in trouble, she hugged me tightly, crying even more painfully than I did.
“It's all over.” I gently patted her hand.
“Niang Niang,” Thanh Dai hesitated for a moment, but finally opened her mouth to speak, “There is something that I don't know if I should say it or not.”
"Thien Lao's side just sent word, saying... he was abolished, he seems to have gone crazy."
We come to Thien Lao. This place is dark, damp, and the air is filled with a musty smell that makes people nauseous. This is the dirtiest place in the world, detaining the most cruel criminals in the world. Quan Huyen Chieu's cell is located deep inside, kept alone. When we got there, he was crawling on the ground like a dog, licking up the spoiled rice and soup that the guards threw at him. The prison uniform on his body was unbearably dirty, his hair was tangled in clumps, his face was full of dirt and stains, and he could no longer see the appearance of the gentle, jade-like monarch of yesteryear. Hearing footsteps, he raised his head, a light suddenly flashed in his dull eyes.
"Anh Tuyet..." He crawled towards me, a foolish smile appeared on his face, "Anh Tuyet, you came to visit me... I know, I know you won't leave me..."
He mistook me for Hoa Anh Tuyet. I stood there, coldly looking at him. The good prisoner was about to scold me when I raised my hand to stop him. Quan Huyen Chieu crawled to my feet, wanting to reach out and grab my skirt, but I hated him and avoided him.
"Anh Tuyet, they all lied to me..." He burst into tears like a child: "They said she poisoned me, said she was a traitor of Bac Dich... I don't believe it, I don't believe it..."
“You love me so much, how could you harm me?”
I looked at his appearance, without a trace of pity in my heart, I only felt extremely sarcastic. Until his death, he still missed the woman who toyed with him in the palm of his hand. As for me, the one who paid everything for him, helping him ascend to the throne, the wife who was destined to be with him, in his eyes I became his sworn enemy.
“Quan Huyen Chieu,” I opened my mouth, my voice cold, “look clearly, who I am.”
It seemed like my voice stimulated him. The blank look on his face immediately disappeared without a trace, replaced by endless fear and hatred.
“Nguyet Tri Vi!”
He screamed loudly, using his hands and feet to desperately back away until his back hit the cold wall behind him:
“This single woman!
What are you still doing here! Come to see my joke?!”
"That's right." I calmly admitted.
“Your jokes are very unique.”
“You…” He was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
“You will not die properly!
You robbed my country, you are a bandit! People will spit on you!”
"Unfortunately, you can't see anymore."
I said leisurely.
"Furthermore, History books are written by the winners.
A hundred years from now, I, Nguyet Tri Vi, will only be a wise monarch to correct the chaos of the world. As for Quan Huyen Chieu, you will be a tyrant who will leave a bad reputation forever, a national thief who will be cursed by everyone." Quan Huyen Chieu spat out a mouthful of black blood and fell straight to the ground. His eyes were wide open, dead without closing his eyes. I quietly looked at his body, feeling strangely calm. The enemy has been avenged, but there is no feeling of crazy joy as imagined, there is only a kind of emptiness left when everything finally ends. I turned around and walked out of this suffocating prison. The sunlight outside is somewhat blinding. Thanh Dai held an umbrella and walked quickly to welcome him.
“Miss, are you okay?”
I shook my head.
“Order down below, abolish Emperor Quan Huyen Chieu and die.
According to the Prince's rituals, he was buried in the Imperial Mausoleum." I still leave him the last bit of dignity. Return to the palace. Soc Anh was already waiting. He gave me a secret message.
“Emergency report from the North.”
I accept it.
