The Empress Dowager had already walked far away.
Under Yu Linglong's gesture, Yunyun withdrew and sent away all the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs.
Now, only Yu Linglong and Chu Qianli were left in the room.
Yu Linglong stood up, her back straight, her face flushed with anger—where was any sign of illness?
The frailty just now had been all an act.
"Who exactly are you?"
Yu Linglong's eyes narrowed, she slowly moved towards the door.
"What, now that I've exposed you, you're going to kill me out of spite?"
Chu Qianli sneered without changing her expression, "Yu Linglong, you truly have some nerve."
"I won't kill you. I just need… to destroy your face, that's all!"
No sooner had Yu Linglong's words fallen than she suddenly leapt up, pouncing fiercely towards Chu Qianli.
A cold laugh was in her heart.
Chu Qianli, this bitch, was indeed smart, but she had no sense of danger.
This was her Qingyang Palace, and she could do whatever she wished—no one could stop her.
