Chapter 2216: The Past Life 141

She thought of the people… How they had slandered her, abused her, and how no one was following her anymore like they once did…

These things were unbearable to Mu Qingya, who was once high up in the world and had a strong sense of self-respect.

Therefore…

She stood up from the ground and stared hard at Qingluo, a flash of angry fire burning her eyes.

Suddenly, she lunged at Qingluo, strangled as she gnashed her teeth. “It's all your fault! You lied to me! You are the one who caused me to become like this. Since I'm going to die, then you must be buried with me! Hahaha!”

Her two hands firmly strangling Qingluo made it difficult for Qingluo to breathe.

She stretched out her hands as she panicked. But she did not try to hit Mu Qingya, not even a little.

Qingya was right. It was all her fault.

She was the one who caused her daughter's incoming death.

So, no matter what Qingya wanted to do, she would no longer resist her and could not let her suffer alone…

Qingluo gradually closed her eyes, tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.

Qingya was her only daughter. How could she not be heartbroken?

The thought of her being beheaded in a few days was even more painful.

The pain was more than the pain in her neck. It was unbearable for her.

Qingya's eyes became more bloodshot as if Qingluo in front of her was no longer her mother but an implacable enemy!

Bang!

Just then, the prison door was pushed open. Two guards rushed in from outside; one of them stepped forward and kicked Mu Qingya out of the way.

The air rushed into Qingluo's nostrils, allowing her to catch a few breaths finally.

“What are you doing?”

The head guard angrily scolded, “You are a prisoner, and you dare to do this in Imperial Prison! Are you seeking death?”

Now that Mu Qingya was no longer a n.o.ble lady, the guard went forward and kicked Mu Qingya viciously.

Qingluo panicked and went forward to protect Mu Qingya. “I am the princess, and she is a n.o.ble lady. You can't hit her, or my father will not let you go!”

“Princess? n.o.ble Lady?” The chief guard laughed. “The emperor released a mandate that you are no longer of the imperial family. Even if you go out, you are no longer a princess. As for Mu Qingya, one way out for her is to die. The crime she committed is unforgivable!”

Qingluo's body grew stiffer, and she shook her head fiercely.

‘No, Father would not be so cruel.'

‘As long as Mu Yi can make Little Nine forgive Qingya, Qingya will not die…'

After all, Little Nine was Mu Yi's daughter. Mu Yi had done nothing wrong to her, and he always tried to find ways to get her home and make up for it.

Therefore, Little Nine finally had to listen to Mu Yi and released Qingya.

“I don't believe what you say!”

Even though she was already a prisoner, Qingluo still did not let go of her pride. She raised her head proudly, looked at the guards in front of her, and said, “The emperor's son-in-law will find someone to save us. As long as Little Nine forgives us, we will be able to get out. I am still the princess. If you treat us like this now, sooner or later, I will make you regret it for the rest of your lives.”

The guards looked like they had heard some funny joke and laughed louder.

He smiled sardonically.

“You probably don't know… Mu Yi went to Little Nine, but he was not even able to enter the gate, and…” He paused. “Little Nine said, Mu Yi, is not her real father. Mu Yi has also admitted it. So, there is no need to scare me. A person who has lost her power wants to make me regret it for the rest of my life?”
