Chapter 1950 - 1952: A Dark, Windy Night for Murder
Ye Zi’an gave his word with utmost sincerity, but ultimately underestimated Prince Le’s scheming.
Perhaps Prince Le had long known they wouldn’t stay quiet, as he sent numerous people before and after.
And those people were clearly not ordinary soldiers.
Thus, although Prince Zhuang and Luo Linhao escaped, their escape was extremely difficult.
And early in the morning, the door of Prince An’s Mansion was knocked on, and the fugitives were searched again.
"Do you think we just don’t get along with the Capital City?" After they left, Yang Chuxia said to Ye Zi’an, "How many times have we been searched this year?"
"It’s not with Capital City, but with him. Every time it’s him stirring things up."
"By the way, let me ask you, will Linhao’s escape implicate the Luo Family?"
"No!" Ye Zi’an shook his head, "Linhao being detained didn’t implicate the Luo Family, and Prince Le understands that the Luo Family has never been a threat to Linhao."
"That’s good!" Yang Chuxia nodded.
"Why, what are you planning?" His wife never asks questions without reason; she’s definitely scheming something again.
"I want to avenge my son!"
The two men who tried to kidnap Lele last time have been captured and brought back. They originally refrained from acting against Old Madam Luo because of Old Mu and Linhao holding positions in court. But now Linhao has escaped, and Old Mu’s whereabouts are unknown, so there’s no need to consider them. When is a better time to act than now?
"What do you plan to do?"
"I plan to send her to heaven." Thinking of First Madam Luo and her daughter’s visit to Prince An’s Mansion that day, it was clearly just to see her make a fool of herself. These two may be annoying, but they’re not smart.
But that old lady is different—vicious and ruthless. Linhao’s situation is related to her, and if guessed correctly, her mother-in-law being married to a fraudster years ago is definitely related to her too.
Now she’s out to harm her son again. Though unsuccessful, as long as this old lady lives, such thoughts won’t dissipate. It’s better to end it once and for all.
"Now with Prince Le managing state affairs, it’s chaotic rather than organized. Reporting to authorities is useless. People would just say you’re heartless; after all, she is nominally your grandmother, and suing your grandmother sounds bad."
Yang Chuxia continued, "Given this, why not take action myself and disable her? I can’t rest easy while she’s alive."
"I’ll send someone." Ye Zi’an thought it over but didn’t stop her, and he himself had the same thought.
"No need, revenge must be taken personally." Yang Chuxia waved her hand, "It’s not my first time at the Luo Residence; I figured out the layout a long time ago through Linhao."
Ye Zi’an was a bit surprised; clearly, this was premeditated.
"Then I’ll go with you."
"No, you’d be a burden!" Yang Chuxia dismissively waved her hand.
Ye Zi’an was suddenly taken aback—was she really that dismissive of him just because he’s a bit weaker?
The time quickly came, a dark and windy night for killing.
Yang Chuxia donned a set of nighttime clothes and left Prince An’s Mansion. As soon as she stepped out, several figures followed.
Luo Residence
Old Madam Luo felt uncomfortable after eating tonight’s meal, perhaps chilled, and couldn’t sleep. The room was brightly lit.
"I heard Ye Zi’an is back?"
"Yes, mother, you don’t know how furious I am—Yang Chuxia has a cousin who became Prince Le’s secondary princess consort."
"That little brat’s family is really lucky." Old Madam Luo pounded the bed, "That Prince Le is truly useless, guarding but not imprisoning; if he imprisoned them, I’d kill that little brat’s family."
