Chapter 566: The grudges of the previous life are settled in this life
In her previous life, Shen Chengjing stabbed her in this place on her body and took her life.
In this life, she used the same method and stabbed Shen Chengjing in the same place, taking his life.
The hatred between them was finally settled.
Ji Chuhe didn't even look at Shen Chengjing and turned away.
When she returned to the street, she saw Rong Qingqing anxiously looking for her everywhere.
As soon as she saw her figure, Rong Qingqing immediately ran over, "Sister-in-law! Where did you go just now? I looked for you everywhere but couldn't find your trace. I was scared to death!"
"There was a sudden emergency just now, but it has been dealt with. Let's go back." Ji Chuhe held Rong Qingqing's hand and smiled gently.
……
The news that Shen Chengjing was killed by Ji Chuhe reached Chao Sihai immediately.
When Chao Sihai heard the news, he was so shocked that he was speechless!
Ji Chuhe, how dare she kill Shen Chengjing directly?
No, she has always wanted to get rid of Shen Chengjing!
When she was in Funing, she stabbed Shen Chengjing, but Shen Chengjing luckily escaped that time. This time, Shen Chengjing was not so lucky.
I have to say, Ji Chuhe is a ruthless character.
At the very least, Chao Sihai had never met such a resourceful and decisive woman.
Perhaps, when she was planning to go to the north, killing Shen Chengjing was already part of her plan.
It was still dark, and Chao Sihai didn't dare to disturb the emperor. He could only wait outside the emperor's bedroom until dawn.
When the emperor woke up and saw that it was Chao Sihai who came to serve him, he guessed that something big had happened.
"Your Majesty, Shen Chengjing is dead." Chao Sihai said this information while holding a mouthwash.
The emperor held his mouthwash in his mouth, paused for a moment, and frowned slightly, "Dead? How did he die?"
"It was the Crown Prince's wife who killed him." Chao Sihai responded in a low voice.
The emperor spat out the water in his mouth and pulled Chao Sihai over, "Ji Chuhe killed Shen Chengjing?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. I don't know where Shen Chengjing got the news from, but he knew that the Crown Prince's wife had become a royal merchant and was managing royal shops in several county towns in the north. He actually took the initiative to find the Crown Prince's wife. Then, the Crown Prince's wife found an opportunity and killed him. The incident happened too suddenly, and the secret guards didn't have time to stop it." Chao Sihai hurriedly explained the situation.
Things that don’t know whether to live or die!
The emperor cursed inwardly, let go of Chao Sihai, picked up the boots on the ground and put them on his feet.
Chao Sihai didn't dare to say much and hurried to get the court clothes for the emperor to change.
"Her courage is beyond my imagination!" said the emperor after putting on his clothes.
It is hard to tell whether this sentence expresses joy or anger.
"Your Majesty, is there any grudge between Shen Chengjing and the Crown Prince's wife? This is not the first time that the Crown Prince's wife has tried to kill him. The last time in Funing, Shen Chengjing almost died at the hands of the Crown Prince's wife."
"I will not pursue this matter. Just pretend that nothing happened." The emperor said.
"Yes." Chao Sihai responded quickly.
The emperor strode out and Chao Sihai hurriedly followed him.
Only when he saw the emperor walk into the court did Chao Sihai feel completely relieved.
It’s so exciting!
His heart was about to jump out of his chest.
It has been a long time since he had this feeling. He has only been working with the Crown Prince's wife for such a short time, but his heart can't take it anymore!
In the future, no one knows what kind of storm this woman can stir up in Daxia.
After Ji Chuhe killed Shen Chengjing, he had no worries.
She believed that Chao Sihai, the old fox, knew how to talk to the emperor.
Seven days later, Ji Chuhe returned to the imperial capital.
He did not even return to the Prince's Mansion, but went straight into the palace to report the situation of the shop to the Emperor.
Before he reached the Queen's palace, he was intercepted by Chao Sihai.
"Madam, the Emperor is waiting for you in Qingfeng Palace."
Ji Chuhe stopped, turned and walked towards Qingfeng Palace.
"Madam, you killed Shen Chengjing so rashly, aren't you afraid that the emperor will blame you?" Chao Sihai asked in a low voice.
"Does the emperor blame me?" Ji Chuhe asked in a calm voice.
Chao Sihai was stunned for a moment, "That's not the case. However, this matter is too risky after all. The emperor's mind is hard to predict. Who knows what the emperor is thinking? The emperor wants the wife of the prince to go to Qingfeng Palace. I guess it's because of Shen Chengjing."
"Don't worry, Eunuch Chao. This matter will not have any impact on me, let alone you."
Chao Sihai was speechless now, "Madam, I'm not worried about myself. I can always find a way to get out of this situation. I'm worried about you."
"Thank you, Eunuch Chao." Ji Chuhe thanked him sincerely.
"I think the emperor is in a good mood today and he won't make things difficult for the Crown Prince's wife because of Shen Chengjing." Eunuch Chao provided Ji Chuhe with some more information.
"I see."
Ji Chuhe and Chao Sihai stepped into Qingfeng Palace one after another.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's wife is here."
Ji Chuhe stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"No courtesy, stay on your own."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Everyone stand down." The emperor ordered the people around him.
Everyone in the hall retreated, including Chao Sihai.
"Ji Chuhe, do you admit your guilt?" the emperor suddenly asked seriously.
Ji Chuhe knelt down, with a frank look on her face, "I don't know what crime I have committed."
"You still don't admit it? Then how did Shen Chengjing die?"
"It was my wife who killed him."
"You...you...killing someone is not a crime?"
"Didn't he die a long time ago? Shouldn't the dead disappear completely from this world?" Ji Chuhe raised her head and looked into the emperor's eyes without any guilt or fear.
"He is still useful to me."
"Now that the emperor knows that I am also reborn, Shen Chengjing is of no use to the emperor. In his previous life, he relied on me to gain the emperor's appreciation. In fact, he was just a useless straw bag!"
Ji Chuhe certainly knew that the emperor needed Shen Chengjing.
Why else would Shen Chengjing be the one doing all those dirty things?
Otherwise, how could Shen Chengjing appear in the Northern Territory? Wasn't he sent by the Emperor to deal with the fourth uncle?
"You and Shen Chengjing were husband and wife in your previous life. Is there any grudge between you two?"
"Didn't Shen Chengjing tell the emperor the truth about my relationship with him? Including Ji Qingyuan, she also has her own story."
"I want to hear what you have to say."
"In my previous life, I married Shen Chengjing and lived with him wholeheartedly. I helped him rise to prominence and become the new nobleman beside the emperor. In the end, he was second only to the emperor and above everyone else. But he actually colluded with Ji Qingyuan, the wife of the crown prince, and even switched the identity of the crown prince. He rescued Ji Qingyuan from prison and secretly kept her outside as his mistress."
"Later, Ji Qingyuan was not content to just be a concubine, and took advantage of Shen Chengjing's love for her to kill my son. When I found out that Ji Qingyuan was still alive, I was shocked and immediately reported Shen Chengjing's crime of deceiving the emperor to the emperor. The emperor punished him and killed Ji Qingyuan. He was filled with resentment and stabbed me to death. This is the grudge between us in our previous lives!"
