Zhai Chenguang pushed the maid’s body off her own, she looked around the debris and the remnants of the carriage, there was no way she would be able to get out of this place but if what the maid said was the truth then she would have to get out of this pile of wood and sand before running back home and telling Zhai Tianyu the truth.

Though her heart was hurting really badly because of the betrayal that she has received she was the princess of this imperial city. Being calm and collected in the face of danger and death was something that she was trained to be, which was why she immediately sat up straight in the spot where she was but as soon as she stood up, she realised that her legs were squashed by the carriage and she could move them.

With a slight purse of her lips, she dragged her legs with the help of her hands trying to get closer to the small opening from where she could get out of this place but as soon as she arrived at the opening, she heard the sound of footsteps rushing towards her direction.

A bad premonition rushed in her heart as she tried to escape from the shadows that were covering her through the light peeking from the space between the wooden boards but as soon as she stumbled back, Zhai Chenguang realised that she could not run away anyway, there was no space for her to sneak out and the only space that was present was covered by someone who most probably came to see whether or not she was dead.

Dread filled her heart as she turned to look around the entire space but she did not find any place from where she would be able to get out while she was looking around, the person outside started tugging the wooden planks aside, one by one the planks were taken away from the pile and Zhai Chenguang who was trapped in a small space felt death knocking on her door.

Soon, the pile of wooden planks was wooden aside as the sand covering the pile fell from the top of the pile.

” Goodness she is still alive!” exclaimed a familiar voice.

” Of course she is, I told you that the maid she was with was getting quite cosy with her, look at that, she killed herself to save this woman.” sneered another voice with whom Zhai Chenguang was rather familiar, she covered her eyes from the raindrops that were falling over her face. She turned to look at the two figures that were standing over her behind them was a third figure and when she saw that figure her eyes widened even more, she looked at her maid who was given to her by her mother and she couldn’t believe her eyes for one second. ” Xiao ...Mi...you too?”

.....

Xiao Mi simply looked at her without even saying anything but she did get closer to the man whom her husband has taken as a disciple. Zhai Chenguang understood what was going on and her heart was filled with rage, she turned to look at Scholar Wei who was standing over her with a contemptuous look in his eyes and sneered, ” So, you were working so hard for this? Are you happy seeing me like this?”

Scholar Wei was surprised by her patience and calm, he did not understand why she was not screaming and yelling at him but he did not seem to care, he shrugged and said, ” I am...I am so happy that my heart that has been weighing down at the thought of marrying you is finally liberated and the rest of unease will go away when I see you go to hell.”

” Hell?” Zhai Chenguang scoffed as she spat on Scholar Wei’s shoes and sneered. ” I think you are mistaking something here, the ones who will be going to hell will be you three.” She tipped her chin at Scholar Wei, Scholar Ren and the maid who betrayed her for love. ” People who killed an innocent are sinners of the heavens, you all are sinners of the heavens! And you...” she turned to look at Scholar Wei. ” You aren’t even a complete man, who are you to curse me to death? You aren’t even going to be accepted by either heaven or hell! Ahh–!”

She screamed in pain when the glint in Scholar Wei’s eyes changed into something malevolent and then he stabbed her with the sword that he was holding by his sides. Pain burst into her body as the blade of the sword slashed flesh and blood spurted out of her skin staining the ground, the man who has always pretended to be gentle in front of her, seemed to have lost his mind.

He continued to stab her again and again, her gaze turned to look at the two who stood beside the man without stopping him, seeing this she smiled and spat in a cold voice, ” I curse you three...” Scholar Wei paused when he heard her cold voice. ” No matter how long it takes, I will come back for you three and have you punished with the greatest punishment known to the imperial law. You three just wa..wait for me to return...” these words took the last of her strength as she fell back on the ground.

Her eyes flicked to Scholar Wei with the last of her haunting smile as she said, ” I will be back.” But in her heart, she wished she could forget this day and everything else.

As everything came flooding back to Zhai Chenguang, she covered her face with her hands. How could she have forgotten this? How could she forget that her husband killed her?

“Aunt,” Zhai Tianyu looked at his aunt who was crouching on the floor. ” Don’t lose yourself.” He told her when he saw that the dark smoke around her was getting thicker and thicker, to the point that it was covering her whole. But before he could say anything more, his aunt stood up from the ground, her eyes turning wide as her features distorted to something more evil, as she screamed, ” I am going to kill him!”
