Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 259
"Song Ya, how is this? Looks like our plan has failed."
The woman wearing the guard clothes asked anxiously at the woman wearing the maid outfit.
"I don't think they knew that quickly. It had even replaced the wine supply with a new one," the service-dressed lady named Song Ya bit her finger while putting on an annoyed face.
"Ru Li, kuta's plan completely failed. You need to get out of here before the guard tightens."
"Well, how about you?" ask the woman named Ru Li.
"I have to finish my goal. Even if I have to be caught, I have to kill the emperor. This is for revenge for my father who has been vilified by him as a traitor" said the young girl.
He immediately put on his face cover, then walked while carrying a tray and wine that he had mixed with poison.
"No. Don't do that Song Ya. You'll get caught."
But Song Ya paid no heed to her friend's words and walked quietly through the hallway.
It didn't take long for the girl to arrive at the emperor's room. But when he came in, he found no one there.
With the identity of the servant she currently had, Song Ya was able to walk freely in the palace without anyone suspecting her. He walked into the party hall then looked for Xuan Zou who was his target.
"There!" inwardly, then immediately stepped into the place where Xuan Zou was with a man who was clearly unknown to him.
"Your Majesty, you look thirsty. Do you want this wine?"
Xuan Zou momentarily fell silent. He then glanced at the figure of the servant who covered half his face and then slowly took the wine glass.
"You can go" Xuan Zou said.
Song Ya continued to pay attention until Xuan Zou completely consumed the poisonous wine. She smiled behind the cloth that covered her face and left the party hall.
The girl did not realize that Xuan Zou had not actually drunk the wine. He threw the wine in the glass into his sleeves but still pretended to spend it.
"It looks like we've already found it" Xuan Zou said.
Zhang Yu smiled. The two of them then left the party hall to follow the servant who had given the poisonous wine. They deliberately do not enlarge this problem in the hall so that the event is not messy and guests are not disturbed.
Song Ya realized that she was being followed, so she sped up her steps while holding the cloth that covered her face.
He became panicked when he realized the two people who were chasing were also getting faster. He threw away the tray in his hand carelessly then ran as hard as he could.
Dear. When he turned in one direction, several people had already intercepted him.
"It turns out you were the one who tried to mess up my daughter's wedding?" said Great Lord Liu in an angry tone.
Song Ya became panicked when she realized there was no way for her to escape. He thought this situation would no longer get any worse. But who would have thought, two more people came holding his friend.
"Ru Li!" he muttered with restraint.
Ru Li also came to her senses from her stupor. He stared at the arm held by a woman and tried to wriggle. But his power is not strong enough to do so.
Xuan Zou saw these two offenders were still very young. He was getting curious as to what their motive was to do all this.
"You want your friend to get away, right? If so, tell me what your purpose is," Xuan Zou said.
Song Ya raised her face looking at the figure of the man who in her eyes was extremely evil. He gritted his teeth. "You! I want you dead!" he said as he pointed at Xuan Zou's face.
Obviously what he did was very brave. General Zhao Yun who heard it suddenly became angry and wanted to wave a sword, but was immediately restrained by Xuan Zou.
"Save your sword, General Zhao."
Zhao Yun nodded his head and immediately kept his sword back.
"Why do you want me dead?" asked Xuan Zou.
Song Ya's passionate breath was slowly in order. "You've slandered my father as a traitor. You must die to apologize to him. My father is not a traitor!" exclaim that girl.
Those who heard Song Ya's words suddenly wondered who her father was. Because there's no way they'd know if the girl still didn't tell her father.
"What's your father's name?" asked Xuan Zou.
"Song Wejin's. He is Prime Minister Song Wejin. My father could not have betrayed me. He's not a traitor!" song Ya said to be very emotional.
Once again his words managed to shock everyone who was there.
"Prime Minister Song Wejin? So she's Prime Minister Song Wejin's daughter?" say those people.
Along with that Great Lord Jim came. He was Song Wejin's brother-in-law. Song Ya's maternal uncle.
"Song Ya, why are you doing this?"
"Uncle ...." Song Ya's voice was stifled when she saw her uncle's face. They hadn't seen each other for a very long time, maybe six or seven years ago when they were thirteen.
Great Lord Jim was about to approach, but his footsteps were held back by the guards who suddenly blocked his path. It was only after Xuan Zou made his mark that the guard only withdrew and let Jim Young walk towards Song Ya.
"Uncle, father is accused of being a traitor. How could I just shut up? I can't accept this. My father's not a traitor."
Jim Young hugged Song Ya, his nephew. "Song Yes, but that's the truth. Your father has betrayed. He tried to seize power by doing rebels."
"No! That's not true. That's slander!" exclaim Song Ya.
Jim Young calms Song Ya down. He then took out a letter that had been written for quite a long time by his older sister, Song Ya's mother. "Look, you'll know all the truth."
In the letter Song Ya's mother Jim Shui wrote a warning letter to Jim's family about the plans that Song Wejin, her husband, would undertake. Jim Shui didn't support her husband's plans, but couldn't betray him either. So he could only remind Jim's family not to get involved in it.
Song Ya's tears trickled down reading the letter. He clearly recognized his mother's handwriting. It can't be wrong, it's the same writing. But how is all truth so different from what he knows? Has her father been lying to her all this time?
Song Ya sat down weakly with tears. He stared at the pouch on his waist that contained poison and began to regret his actions.
"Pa-paman, am I also most likely to betray? What am I doing this crime?" Song Ya was like getting enlightenment. All this time he only knew things from what his father said. Even until his father died he was still shackled by the lies he had created all this time and made him take a completely wrong step.
