Chapter 1555: Chapter 1555: Too Cheap for Him

“Qian Jiyun.”

An Jiuyue felt the man beside her truly intended to kill, so she quickly reached out to grasp his hand.

“Don’t stoop to his level.”

“Heh, haha!”

The old emperor burst into loud laughter upon seeing this.

“I was right, wasn’t I? Qian Jiyun, your Princess Consort of the Second Rank didn’t just disappear back then; you sent her to get close to Prince An Yang, didn’t you?

You’re really something, aren’t you? To achieve your goals, you’re even willing to sacrifice your own woman. No wonder you’ve attained your current status, you’ve made such great sacrifices.

And you call me cruel? I may be cruel, but I would never allow my own woman to sacrifice her body and serve my purposes!”

He pushed himself up from the ground to stand, his face full of mockery as he looked at Qian Jiyun, truly angering him.

“You—”

Qian Jiyun wanted to take a step forward and simply kill this man.

But the person beside him was holding onto him tightly, unwilling to let go. He turned his head to look at An Jiuyue.

“An Jiuyue, even if I killed him, no one would dare to do anything to me, you should know this.”

Indeed, he was from Huayan Peak, who would dare to do anything to him? Even if he killed someone in a higher plane, what could they do to him? It could only be said that those he killed deserved it!

“I know.”

An Jiuyue nodded, she certainly knew how much this dog of an Emperor deserved to die.

But still, to kill him outright would be letting him off too easily. How dare he slander her reputation? She was going to make him wish he was dead, just as she had said before, first slip him some medicinal pills.

“To kill him would take no effort at all, but to kill him just like that would be too easy on him.”

As she spoke, she took another bottle from her space, the same kind she had given to Eldest Brother Yan, and thrust it into Qian Jiyun’s palm.

“Give it to him.”

“Alright.”

Qian Jiyun let go of her hand and strode over to the old emperor, holding the porcelain bottle.

“What do you want to do? I am the Emperor. If you dare to poison me, neither the ministers nor the people will let you off!” Seeing Qian Jiyun approaching with a porcelain bottle, the old emperor really panicked.

This porcelain bottle was obviously not filled with anything good; if he ate it, he wouldn’t die but would certainly be flayed, wouldn’t he?

He absolutely could not eat it!

The old emperor could no longer maintain his composure, clutching his chest as he staggered backward until his back hit the wall, only then stopping.

“No, no… Mpph!”

He wanted to struggle, but Qian Jiyun didn’t give him the chance. He just poured the medicinal pills from the porcelain bottle and stuffed them into the old emperor’s mouth.

After tilting his chin up, he ensured that the pills were swallowed, whether the old emperor liked it or not.

“Ugh!”

Once Qian Jiyun had fed the poison to the old emperor and stepped aside, the old emperor collapsed on the ground, retching.

But that medicinal pill couldn’t be vomited out no matter how hard he tried to induce it by sticking his fingers down his throat; he could only look up, watching Qian Jiyun with resentment.

“You, you all… You dare to poison me? I am the Emperor!”

“You still recognize that you’re the Emperor?”

An Jiuyue crossed her arms, looking at this man who incessantly claimed he was the Emperor.

Having done so many things an emperor should never do, yet he still had the gall to call himself the Emperor? It was truly laughable.

She slowly walked toward the old emperor, crouched in front of him, her eyes filled with mockery as she gazed at the person on the ground, disheveled and showing a fierce countenance.
