Chapter 1016: Suffering from Her Own Actions

Courtesan Zheng shook all over, screaming at Qiao Mu while out of her wits, “You, what are you planning to do? You witch! What do you want! I want to see the king! Your Majesty, Your Majesty!! Ah!”

“Witch?” While chewing this word over, Qiao Mu motioned with her fair and slender finger, taking out two talismans that were radiating blue light from her inner world and handing one of them over to Ao’ye.

“Then, as you wish.”

The two figures in front of Courtesan Zheng vanished as quick as lightning, causing her to gape in disbelief.

Why?

They actually vanished in the blink of an eye before her eyes?

What talisman exactly did that witch use, ahhh!

What Courtesan Zheng experienced in her last moments was perhaps boundless terror, or it was perhaps endless regret and despair!

She was more than aware that Nanny Su had led Shuntian Prefecture’s people in digging out the area at the foot of this Pacification Pagoda, filling it in with highly volatile explosives instead.

Once it was the appointed time, they would set fire and explode the pagoda without any hesitation!

It was originally the crown prince consort, this little b*tch, who should have enjoyed this agony and dread. Yet now, she, the mastermind, had taken the crown prince consort’s place instead, losing her head out of fear in this wait.

No matter how wildly she screamed, her voice was isolated inside the defensive boundary all along.

Until her death, no one appeared before her again.

Boom!

The group of people worshipping in front of the Pacification Pagoda were the first to feel the sudden quakes and tremors from the ground, upon which they all stood up with drastically changed expressions.

Shaoyao clutched Wei Ziqin’s wrist and informed quietly into her ear, “Madam, don’t worry. The crown prince consort has already sent Shaoyao a message that she has already safely departed from the Pacification Pagoda. Madam and Young Miss can just sit back and watch the subsequent show.”

Only then did Wei Ziqin’s anxious heart settle down, and she slowly breathed out a sigh of relief.

As Wei Ziqin pulled her younger daughter along and retreated with Shaoyao to the edge of the crowd, she looked on with a cold eye at the chaotic scene before her.

By this time, due to the impact from the fire explosions and tremors, the entire Pacification Pagoda was toppling to the left side, and broken pieces of brick mixed in with ceramic glaze pelted down.

At that moment, the monastery’s monks were weeping and wailing as they prostrated on the ground.

The group of royal concubines and madams were also extremely flabbergasted. They all covered their heads, momentarily cowering on the ground without moving. A more daring one even looked up and stared blankly at the toppling Pacification Pagoda that was disappearing inch by inch.

After three rounds of fire explosions, more than half of the Pacification Pagoda had collapsed from the tremors, and the remaining part was but meaningless wreckage.

The group of honorable ladies all looked at those utter ruins in fearful dread. They stared on blankly, barely able to stand up with their own royal maids from before.

Although Consort Cheng was also shocked, she was the first to recover her wits, and she shouted with her eyes flashing, “It’s terrible, someone, come quickly. The crown prince consort is still inside the Pacification Pagoda and hasn’t come out yet!”

Consort Liu couldn’t help but snicker upon hearing this. “The crown prince consort really is funny. The entire Pacification Pagoda exploded just after she stepped foot inside.”

“How much does this Pacification Pagoda loathe the crown prince consort?” The Vassal King Consort of An’nan also sniggered.

“If you are out to condemn somebody, you can always trump up a charge. The Vassal King Consort’s words are too severe, so if you do not have concrete evidence, it is best if you do not speak irresponsibly. Or else, it will be hard to avoid a bad repute of being irreverent to the consort of the Eastern Palace.” A feeble voice, tinged with slight ridicule, suddenly rang out.

“Noble Lady Ying, you!” The Vassal King Consort of An’nan’s complexion abruptly changed.

A mere Noble Lady dared to mock her, the Vassal King Consort of An’nan. It was simply abominable!
