Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Time for Revenge!

All sorts of thoughts flashed through Zhi Jin’s mind. Liu Xiang is considered the most loyal person in this palace, but she has been granted permission by Lady Ming Fei to rest, so she probably won’t come these two days, leaving only herself to attend to Lady Ming Fei.

In the past, with those people watching, it was difficult to do anything. But now, haha!

The child cannot be harmed, but making her suffer a bit, letting the child in her womb have some ailments from the womb, is still possible.

"Please rest well, Your Ladyship. I will stand guard outside."

There was no response from inside, only the sound of steady breathing, indicating she had already fallen asleep. Zhi Jin’s eyes flickered, and she stepped out.

"Click!"

The palace gate closed.

After a little while, Long Yue, who had been asleep inside, slowly opened her eyes. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

For some reason, a strong thought arose in her mind — this Yu Zhu might be Zhi Jin in disguise!

Women are sensitive, even though separated by curtains and screens, Long Yue could still feel Yu Zhu’s hatred towards her!

Hatred that was overwhelming!

She thought it over, and there were only three people who hated her so much: Nianxi, Zhi Jin, and Wei Yundai.

Yet Wei Yundai and Nianxi were together, and they couldn’t possibly be pretending to be Yu Zhu, so it must be Zhi Jin.

This woman who was cast into the Cold Palace!

And, back then, when Long Yue wanted to visit the Cold Palace, it was she who stopped her.

Comparing all these, it seems likely it was her.

Because the man she loved did not love her, but instead loved Long Yue, her heart was unwilling. She must have already crafted dozens of little dolls to put a curse on herself. Having someone like her attend to her is too dangerous.

Long Yue initially kept her around to see who was behind her.

But ever since she accidentally went to the Tianxing Pavilion, she knew who it was.

You Su!

In this palace, only You Su had the ability to play such tricks!

He did this just to create chaos in the harem and then further disrupt the court, eventually leading to chaos in the whole world!

It’s really puzzling, how does a chaotic world benefit him?

Could it be he wants chaos to create heroes?

Perhaps this is a possibility, but it is definitely not the final answer!

Long Yue rubbed her temples. Such matters of the state and the family shouldn’t be her concern as a pregnant woman; she should focus on her pregnancy. As for this Zhi Jin...

Today she certainly wouldn’t take action because she had just returned, and if something unexpected happened, she wouldn’t benefit from it. Thus, she could rest easy today, but going forward, she’d have to be constantly on guard against her.

Indeed, even though Zhi Jin also intended to harm Long Yue today, considering various factors, she ultimately did not take action.

That night, Long Yue slept peacefully.

In the wee hours of the night.

Zhi Jin swapped shifts with another palace maid and went to her room to rest. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her.

"Come to the back garden!"

This voice was slightly hoarse and aged, causing Zhi Jin’s body to tremble as she abruptly opened her eyes.

"Who?"

She looked around, but there was no one there. The place was empty, with the simplest furnishings in the room!

But she soon knew who it was, the shadow that brought her out that day!

Zhi Jin’s heart jolted. This was truly impressive; even without being present, he could transmit his voice into her ears?

How strong must his Inner Strength be?

Zhi Jin dared not delay, quickly getting up and dressing, heading towards the back garden.

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, she arrived at the back garden, but it was deserted.

"Sir, are you here?"

She called softly, even searching among the flowers, but still saw no one.

Zhi Jin was puzzled, could she have misheard? Was she hallucinating?

Just as Zhi Jin was about to return, a shadow suddenly flashed.

"Ah!"

Zhi Jin instinctively exclaimed, and the next second, found herself in another garden.

"Sir? Benefactor?"

"Just to be safe."

The shadow said softly, then looked at Zhi Jin, "Time is of the essence, that’s why I summoned you."

Zhi Jin was slightly taken aback; time is of the essence?

She didn’t know why, but upon hearing these words, she became excited instead.

The shadow had always told her not to harm Lady Ming Fei, but she really hated Lady Ming Fei. Serving her day in and day out, how unbearable was it?

How many times had she repressed the urge to act?

Now, finally, there was an opportunity!

She quickly said, "Benefactor, just give your commands, what do you want me to do?"

"Nothing really, just to let you know, you can now take your revenge on her; there’s no need to wait any longer. As for how to take revenge, it’s all up to you!"

Instantly, Zhi Jin’s heart blossomed with joy. She had been waiting for this day for so long; she could even say it felt like years!

Now, the opportunity had come!

She said, "Rest assured, Benefactor, I will not let you down!"

"Hmm, good, be careful yourself. If possible, try to sow discord between Princess and His Majesty."

"Yes, Benefactor!"

Zhi Jin responded respectfully, and when she looked up again, there was no one around.

"Lady Ming Fei, Wei Yunyan! You little bitch, just you wait!"

Zhi Jin smirked with a mocking smile, turning to leave the back garden.

As she walked away, a shadow re-emerged from where she had been standing, watching her leave while emitting a chilling laugh...

The next day, when the sun was high, Long Yue leisurely got up, as usual, groomed herself, and ate, then took a walk in the back garden to clear her mind.

The weather was growing colder, and Long Yue initially planned to take a short walk and return, but she ran into Princess Consort Jing, who was also taking a stroll, and they conversed for a while.

This chat extended until noon.

After lunch, Long Yue felt a bit drowsy and went to rest.

"All of you, leave. I don’t like any noise around when I’m sleeping."

Long Yue dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs. The Yu Zhu disguised as Zhi Jin hurried to exit as well and closed the door.

As she turned, Zhi Jin pursed her lips lightly, revealing a mocking smile.

"Lady Ming Fei is now expecting, she shouldn’t be disturbed. You all stay far away!"

"Yu Zhu" was the top personal maid, so naturally, the other palace maids obeyed her and withdrew far away.

Zhi Jin then turned around, looking at the magnificent Zhaoming Palace.

She spoke slowly, "What I can’t obtain, no one else should get! Ming Fei, this child of yours should not be born well either, hehehe!"

Her voice was eerie, but since no one was there and it was far from the palace, no one heard it.

Meanwhile, Long Yue was already lying down.

However, she wasn’t asleep.

Because for some reason, today, seeing this Zhi Jin, she seemed particularly cheerful?

Before, she was always with her head down, looking preoccupied, but today, she was full of energy.

What does this indicate?

Zhi Jin was going to make her move!

So Long Yue became alert and prepared a bunch of medicinal powder.

It was uncertain how much time passed.

"Crack, crack!"

Sounds of windows being closed came from the outer hall, not loud, almost faintly. Generally, a person in deep sleep wouldn’t notice.

But Long Yue was not asleep, so she heard it.

Long Yue’s face changed slightly.

It was an attempt to assassinate her!
