My Wife is a Psychic Novel - Chapter 261

261 Wait to be Beheaded in Public

The prison was filled with a faint smell of blood and a foul smell. In the dark and damp place, she could hear the squeaking of rats. From afar, she could hear her sister, Zhao Shanshan, crying. “I want to go out, I want to go out, I don’t want to stay here. Mother, mother, come and save me! Help me!”

Concubine Fang consoled her from the side, “Don’t cry. I’ve brought your mother for you. This bottle contains the water that your mother’s bones have turned into. Keep it as a memento. As she spoke, she even stuffed the bottle into Zhao Shanshan’s arms, causing her to scream in fear.

Jiang Xi sat cross-legged in the corner with an indifferent expression. Zhao Yingying held on to the corner of Jiang Xi’s clothes tightly with tears in her eyes, as if this would make her feel at ease.

Now that the weather had turned cold, Zhao Panpan was wrapped in a furry cloak and walked like a polar bear. A large group of people followed behind her.

“You all can go out first. I will have a good chat with my family. After not seeing them for so many days, my family has all lost weight. My heart is very distressed.” Zhao Panpan’s tone was emotionless, making people feel terrified.

The officials bowed and led their men away. The palace maids even placed a thick layer of cushion on the chair she was sitting on. Zhao Panpan slowly sat down while Jiang Xi watched her movements coldly.

“After entering the palace, I have been thinking about my family. Now that I see that you are not living well, I am at ease.” Zhao Panpan’s face could not hide the paleness. When she should and came out to take revenge. Her face was very ugly.

“What are you saying, Pure Consort? If not for the Zhao family, what would your status be now? You’re standing on a higher ground now, so far that you don’t even want your family anymore?” Concubine Fang had her hands on her hips, and Zhao Hongwei was curled up behind her, his hair disheveled. He did not look like he had any backbone.

“Panpan, tell the emperor that father doesn’t know anything and that everything was planned by your mother.” Zhao Hongwei did not dare to say anything. Xiao Meili had the audacity to exchange the princess and even marry the princess to the emperor. Even if he died ten thousand times, it would not be enough. He only hoped that Zhao Panpan would consider their many years of relationship and help them plead for mercy.

Zhao Panpan lowered her eyes and sneered. In the Zhao residence, she had suffered a lot to please Zhao Hongwei. Now that he was in prison, she felt much better. At this moment, she could not even remember the fact that she was the one Zhao Hongwei loved the most out of all his daughters.

“Zhao Panpan, the Zhao family has always treated you well. You have everything that your sisters don’t have, and now you’re even making bogus accusations, saying that the Zhao family has not treated you well. What, have you become cruel and unscrupulous after becoming the Pure Consort? Do you want to kill the entire Zhao family?” Zhao Yingying stood up.

Zhao Panpan looked at her indifferently, “Tomorrow, I’ll see how you can still talk with that sharp tongue of yours. You people will be beheaded in public tomorrow afternoon. Zhao Ruifeng is far away at the border. It’ll be too late by the time he returns.” Zhao Panpan laughed as she spoke, but the pain in her lower body made her gasp.

“Always leave a way out for yourself. I advise you to leave a way out for yourself.” Jiang Xi slowly opened her eyes, and Concubine Yuan quickly helped her up.

“Haven’t you felt anything wrong recently?” Jiang Xi chuckled. “In the palace, crows sounded every day. Magpies killed themselves in front of your palace gate. How are your twin princes? Sometimes, don’t go too far. There are people watching from above.” Jiang Xi pointed to the sky with a smile. She had been in prison for a long time, but her face was ruddy and her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky. However, she seemed to be more blessed now. If one looked carefully, one could see that her cheeks were two times rounder than before.

When Zhao Panpan heard the words ‘twin princes’, her expression changed, “As the saying goes, if a family is united, you won’t be lonely in the afterlife. Tomorrow, I’ll go ask His Majesty the Emperor and personally supervise your execution! I’ll send you on your last journey as a sacrifice to my child and my life!” Zhao Panpan stood up and left in a huff. Old Master Zhao and Old Madam Zhao stomped their feet anxiously.

“You heartless thing!” Old Madam Zhao scolded. “I think Zhao Panpan was the one who instigated the Zhao family’s shakedown. Xiao Meili was the one who taught her everything! If I had known, I wouldn’t have let Xiao Meili marry Zhao Hongwe
