Chapter 82: The Revenge

When Yun Ruoyan and the others heard about this, they immediately rushed into the greenhouse.

Perhaps due to his panic, Li Qianxiao stumbled and fell forward, his head barely avoiding Yun Ruoyan in front of him.

Li Mo reached out and blocked Li Qianxiao from hitting Yun Ruoyan's shoulder.

"Look where you're going," Li Mo turned around and criticized Li Qianxiao.

Yun Ruoyan did not pay much attention to the two of them, and instead gripped the item in her hand even tighter.

Li Xiu walked in front, and it only took two steps for him to reach the entrance of the greenhouse. He was about to step in when Eunuch Chang shouted, "Your Majesty, please wait!"

But Li Xiu had already stepped forward, revealing a scene he had never imagined.

Eunuch Chang only managed to light one lamp in the greenhouse before running out, so the interior of the greenhouse was still quite dim.

But in this dim light, Li Xiu could still see the naked girl lying on the floor of the greenhouse.

"Aah!" The empress shouted in surprise before turning around and quickly walking away, dragging Li Qianhan along with her.

Li Xiu's eyes widened to twice their original size. He critically examined the girl's entire body before suddenly turning around.

Yun Ruoyan glanced at Yi Qianying, then at Li Mo. He looked at her, his dark eyes shining.

Li Mo glanced at Yun Ruoyan and slowly muttered, "Now that we have found your sister, won't you see how things are?"

It was then that Yun Ruoyan revealed an expression of shock and fear. "Sister Qianying!" He rushed in haste. The girl was lying on her back on the ground, her hair was disheveled, her pale white skin was broken with green-purple bruises all over her body. There were even some traces of blood on his lower body.

Yun Ruoyan's smile slowly disappeared. He clenched his fists tightly, no matter which nails pierced his palms, shivering all over his body as he closed his eyes. Memories from the past filled his brain.

“Kak, today is the day that the Yun and Lin families will be beheaded. Will you go look around?” Yi Qianying asked with a smile plastered on her face and a bowl of poison in her hands. Yi Qianying, whom she had always treated like a little sister!

“A ugly girl like you, sister..how could you dream of accompanying Brother Ziao for life?” Yi Qianying sneered. "Sister, did you know that Big Brother Ziao is so fed up with you that he is too nauseous to eat?"

“Silver, if you weren't the only daughter Yun was born as a wife, would Brother Ziao deign to talk to someone ugly like you? Just taking you out with him would humiliate him to no end! ”

Yi Qianying poured the poison slowly into her mouth. “Sister, don't worry. After you die, I will keep both the Yun family business and your husband for you.”

Yi Qianying looked at Pei Ziao gently. “Sister Ziao, why don't we throw it outside? Otherwise, it would have dirtyed our huts to store firewood."

Barely surviving, Yun Ruoyan was thrown out of Pei's front door. Using the rest of his remaining strength, he asked, "Are you not afraid of retaliation?"

Yun Ruoyan would never forget the response of Yi Qianying's smile. "Reflame? Oh, of course you are. Unfortunately, you are trash, and I will never face any retaliation from you in this lifetime!"

Yun Ruoyan finally opened her eyes wide, the pain from her past memories was once again lost within the recesses of her heart. He slowly bent down and covered Yi Qianying's bare upper body with his clothes strewn across the floor.

Calmly, he muttered, in a voice so soft that he could hear, "Repentance will always come for you, even if it's for the sins you committed in your previous life."

"Scandal, humiliation!" Outside the greenhouse, the empress gasped as she took a deep breath. “This kind of thing will happen inside the palace.. When I catch the culprit, I will skin it!”.

Li Qianxiao's heart started pounding again, his gaze filled with Yi Qianying's bruised skin. He did not realize that he had hurt her so. When she left the greenhouse, Yi Qianying's body was actually not too bruised. However, her skin was sensitive, and the long time she spent on the cold floor had aggravated her bruising.

“I obviously covered her up before she left, but this girl must have moved around!” Li Qianxiao muttered furiously.

When Pei Ziao and the other descendants heard that Yi Qianying had been found, they all rushed to the greenhouse. However, without exception, they were all barred from entering.

Suddenly, Yun Ruoyan pushed the entrance to the greenhouse. "Let Sister Ruoyao come in, please."

Yun Ruoyao quickly walked to the entrance. He frowned and glanced at Yun Ruoyan, who shifted to the side to let her pass, her expression calm.

When Yun Ruoyao entered the greenhouse and saw Yi Qianying lying on the floor, she immediately took a deep breath. His sister's reputation will be tarnished forever.

In the Chenyuan continent, women with tarnished reputations have very poor marriage prospects, no matter how noble their birth is.

"Qianying, Qianying, get up, please, get up!" Yun Ruoyau grabbed Yi Qianying, shook her gently and shouted into her ears. After a while, Yi Qianying finally replied.

“Qianying, open your eyes. Tell me who did it, is it Pei Ziao?” Yun Ruoyan shook Yi Qianying's shoulder until it finally widened her eyes.

He glanced dazedly at Yun Ruoyao's angry expression. "Sister Ruoyao, is there a problem?"

"Is there a problem? Look at you!" Yun Ruoyao lowered her voice and criticized him. “You have destroyed the reputation of the Yun family!”

Although Yi Qianying was from the Yi family, she was raised and educated by the Yun family. Now that something like this had happened, it was the Yun Family who would lose face.

Only when Yi Qianying leaned over to inspect her body did she really wake up in shock. Clearly, he was also shocked by his own appearance. He wanted to shout, but Yun Ruoyao clutched her mouth just in time.

"Don't you think you've embarrassed yourself enough ?!" Yun Ruoyao whispered loudly. “The descendants of the entire Li nobility are outside! Do you want everyone in the capital to know how you are doing?!"

Yi Qianying grew even more panicked after hearing Yun Ruoyao's words. He grabbed his wrist and shouted, “Sister, what should I do? Where is Brother Ziao? I'm sure he'll be responsible for me!"

"I don't think so." Yun Ruoyan crossed her hands and said coldly.

It was then that Yi Qianying realized Yun Ruoyan's presence. His eyes immediately widened, as if he was seeing a ghost. “Why, why, you..?”.

Yun Ruoyan knew what she was thinking even before she said it. "You want to know why I'm okay, while you're drugged?"

"What are you talking about? What drug?” Yun Ruoyao asked suspiciously.

“Our dear brother drugged me with an aphrodisiac. Instead of hurting me, however, she ended up being the one affected.” Yun Ruyoan looked at Yi Qianying and smiled coldly. “This is retaliation. Do you want to hear other news? Your brother Ziao doesn't seem to want to admit it.”

"What did you say?" Yi Qianying suddenly stood up and shouted, “No, no way! He doesn't want to!”

Yun Ruoyao shook her head in disappointment as she looked at Yi Qianying's disheveled appearance. He intended to use it, but he had destroyed himself.

“Let me find Brother Ziao! I need to talk to him!” Yi Qianying tried to stand up, but the pain radiating from her bottom made her fall back.

"He's the one who told us to come looking for you." Yun Ruoyan looked at him coldly. “In front of everyone, he announced that he passed out in the outdoor park. By the time he wakes up, you're gone. According to him, it was not him who freed you.”

Yi Qianying shook her head in confusion. “No, no, impossible..!”.

He looked towards Yun Ruoyao and pleaded, “Saudari Ruoyao, please bring Brother Ziao to me. Please, I beg you, find him!”

Yun Ruoyao did not want to see her sister at all, but she had to act as her elder sister. “Set your clothes. Pei Ziao was right outside, just like the emperor. We will reclaim justice for you, Qianying.”

Yun Ruoyao opened the door of the greenhouse, and Li Xiu, Li Mo, the empress, Li Qianxiao, and Pei Ziao entered, while the others remained outside.

"What's really going on?" A young master asked a skinny eunuch. Coincidentally, it was one of the eunuchs who followed Eunuch Chang into the greenhouse to light the lamp.

Skinny eunuch looked around him before whispering, “Oh, that's terrible! The lady's skin is speckled green and purple!”

“Really, it really happened to him ?!” the young man exclaimed in shock.

"Of course!" The eunuch could not help but raise his voice. “I saw with my own eyes that—”

With a thud, Eunuch Chang's fist landed on his head. "Do you want your tongue cut off?"

The skinny eunuch immediately shuddered and left.

At first, the descendant did not fully trust the skinny eunuch, but Eunuch Chang's quick condemnation made his words more believable.

And word began to spread, throughout the Li kingdom, that the young Miss Yi had been attacked and raped in the royal palace.

"Sister Ziao!" Yi Qianying immediately walked towards him when she saw him enter.

But Pei Ziao immediately took a few steps back. "Miss Yi, please hold yourself."

Miss Yi, please hold yourself! When Yi Qianying heard these words, her heart instantly froze. "Sister Ziao, aren't you going to be responsible for me?" Yi Qianying's tears dripped down her face like pearls.

As soon as Yi Qianying disappeared, Pei Ziao knew that he had to cut ties with the girl. When he heard Yi Qianying asking him to take responsibility, he hurriedly raised his head. “Why should I be responsible for you? Miss Yi, you must be wrong!"
