Chapter 452: To rest
The night you offered my wife to the Emperor did you even stop to think what and how she was going to suffer?"
Tears brimmed at the corner of his eyes as Official Qin reminisce the night of the hunt when his wife was tied and sent to the tent of the late Emperor. " I found her battered and bruised, in the tent where I left her completely safe. Throughout the night, she cried that she wanted to die, that she was no longer worthy of me.
I told her that she was not in the wrong, I even promised her that I will submit my resignation and we will go back to my village and live like honest farmers."
" But that still does not explain why you killed Madam Qin and your daughter, Official Qin," Liu Hui Ying questioned as she looked at the raging Official Qin who was breathing harshly, with his chest heaving up and down. Her eyelashes fluttered lightly as she parted her lips and offered the ammunition that Official Qin needed, " Was it because they did something to you as well?
Or did you just take your anger out on innocents when you saw that you could not make a move against prime minister Ji who was the cause of your agony?"
" Hahaha, innocent?" Official Qin laughed like a maniac as he raised his head and looked t Liu Hui Ying with a wicked grin. " That woman? She was the one who was the culprit behind everything! Goodness knows how that woman fell for me, maybe it was my wits or maybe it was because I was good-looking when I was young.
That woman was obsessed with the idea of marrying me and thus, she came up with the idea of offering my wife to the Emperor together with Ji Yang !"
" Do you think that my wife would have followed a strange man without a reason? It was that Madam Qin who pushed my wife to come out of the tent, she lied to her saying that I was hurt in the hunt and when My dear wife came out, she knocked her out and sent her to that…that beast!"
" Official Qin, mind your language! You are talking about the late Emperor! How dare you call him a beast!" The grand dowager Empress hated to hear anyone call her son a beast which was why she immediately glared at Official Qin and admonished him. " Talk about your late emperor with respect, we admit that we were in the wrong but we did compensate you!"
" Respect? Compensation? Did I ever ask for all of this? All I wanted was, my little Xi Ling to follow me till I grow old! But you—— you all bunch of ingrates and demons, you did not even allow me to have this small of happiness, for the sake of curry favouring with the Qin family, you killed my wife after colluding with them! And sent me to marry that Madam Qin like some slave!"
Official Qin\'s tears dropped from his eyes as his rims turned red. He sniffed and wiped his eyes violently with his forearm as he continued speaking, " That was when I swore, that no matter what—— I will avenge my wife. I promised that even if I had to wait for years I will make you all come to hell with me."
" I waited for this hunt, set those traps one by one before bringing Madam Qin to the forest under the pretext of looking for our daughter… ha, she thought that after doing so much to me and my wife, I will treat her well? Maybe she foolishly did think so, after all, I pretended to be a kind husband and a wonderful father."
" Hahaha, it was worth it, everything was worth it though—— the satisfaction that I got when I cut her fcking head off it was extremely wonderful!" Official Qin laughed as he looked at Ji Yang whose face was turning paler by the minute. " The only regret that I have is that I could not send you to where my wife is prime minister Ji! But don\'t worry! I curse you!
One day you will suffer twice as your victims did and only then will I and my wife will be satisfied."
Official Qin reached for his sword and then placed it on his neck as he laughed like a maniac, " I will now chase after my wife, I am certain that she must be waiting for me. I will go and tell her that even though I could not bring the head of the Emperor and the man who sold her away, I did avenge her in a way. I am sure that little fool will forgive me."
" Enough!" Zhai Tianyu raised his hand and then stopped the madness as he motioned his guards to stop Official Qin who was on the verge of cutting his head off, he looked at the man who was pushed to the ground and then said, " Official Qin, do you have any proof that will support your claim? If you don\'t then what you are saying is nothing more than a slander."
