Chapter 1083
On the way to You Lan Palace, a servant with her head covered in blood rushed out anxiously, her eyes were flooded with tears.
Gu Yiyi could recognize the servant at a glance. The servant was You Lan’s close-knit servant. Seeing this, Gu Yiyi’s face was drained of color, her eyes were overcast with dark clouds.
“Maiden Gu!” Seeing Gu Yiyi, the servant burst into tears.
“Just now the eldest princess consort has brought a group of people to look for Her Highness, Princess You Lan. I couldn’t stop them. Hence, I was thinking of looking for His Majesty. However, I heard that someone else has conquered the palace.”
Just as the servant rushed out of You Lan Palace, Shen Die stomped into the You Lan Palace menacingly with a group of people behind her. This servant wanted to stop them, but Shen Die’s strength was too strong. Naturally, the servant was no match for her.
Fortunately, Shen Die only threw this servant out and did not kill her. Hence, this servant quickly ran out to look for help. However, little did she know that the palace had fallen into someone else’s hands and simply no one knew where the emperor was. Who else could save the princess?
Seeing the servant’s anxious face, Gu Yiyi went pale. She seemed to know what could possibly happen. She quickly rushed to You Lan palace together with two spirit beasts without informing Feng Ruqing. The two spirit beasts were sent by Feng Ruqing to protect Gu Yiyi. Hence, their strength was not inferior. Shen Die was no match for them.
***
In You Lan Palace.
Shen Die ruthlessly strangled You Lan. Her eyes were blazing with murderous intent.
You Lan’s face turned red, a trace of blood could be seen running down from the corner of her lips, falling onto the back of Shen Die’s hand.
“You Lan, you have actually let go of Gu Yiyi and harmed His Highness. He is your brother! Your biological brother! Don’t you feel remorseful?” Shen Die’s face was nonchalant.
You Lan merely sneered.
Biological brother? You Lan and the eldest prince were not from the same mother. She had never treated him as her brother ever since she was little. You Lan was not close to the eldest prince. The only feeling she had toward the eldest prince was fear—You Lan was only afraid of the eldest prince.
Hence, You Lan did not feel sad knowing that the eldest prince had passed. On the contrary, she felt grateful.
Since the eldest prince had died, there was no need for You Lan to marry Young Marquis Zheng.
“You Lan!” Shen Die was burning with fury. That slut was actually more important than her own brother?
“Well, you have asked for all this. Since you are so close to Gu Yiyi, I will make her regret the things that she has done in her entire…”
Life…
Before Shen Die could finish her words and squeeze You Lan’s neck even more forcefully, Golden-Haired Lion pounced on Shen Die from behind. Shen Die could not help losing her grip, You Lan slid through Shen Die’s hand and fell to the ground.
You Lan’s red cheek was restored its natural skin color. Stroking her throat, she coughed incessantly.
The desperate gasping for air made You Lan feel as if she had revived from death, she felt immensely relieved now.
Outside You Lan Palace, a maiden wearing an emerald green robe rushed into the palace. With refined features, she looked exquisitely beautiful. When she saw You Lan, she regained her calmness.
“Yiyi! You are back!” Thrilled with joy, You Lan raised her head to look at the maiden who was standing at the palace’s door.
“Why do you want to kill You Lan?” Gu Yiyi bit her lower lip and turned to look at Shen Die.
