Chapter 255 It’s not that I won’t kill you, it’s just that the time has not come yet
She hated Zhou Lingyi so much that she tried every way to send a message to her mother, but it was of no avail.
Even if she could hide from the screening of the palace, the marquis's mansion had the eldest wife there, and the message for help she sent out would never reach her mother, otherwise her mother would not have come to rescue her until now.
Moreover, since her miscarriage, the vicious woman Zhou Lingyi had her imprisoned, bullied, and fed her cold tea and stale rice, and even came to the palace occasionally to torture her.
What made her even more heartbroken was that Prince An knew everything, but he turned a blind eye and allowed Zhou Lingyi to treat her like this.
It's not that she didn't think about escaping, but every time, even if she escaped from the courtyard where she was imprisoned, she could not escape the high walls of the palace, and she was caught without exception.
Until she learned that the emperor had arranged a marriage for Prince An, and that Prince An's wife was not Zhou Lingyi, at that moment, she almost laughed out loud.
Zhou Lingyi has always regarded the position of Princess An as a sure thing since she was a child. Now that the duck in her mouth has flown away, her expression must be extremely wonderful.
As expected, that night Zhou Lingyi came to the palace with slap marks all over his face.
She used all kinds of vicious and sarcastic words to mock Zhou Lingyi.
He laughed at her for drawing water with a bamboo basket in vain, and laughed at her for planning for many years, but in the end she still had to be a concubine like him, and pay her respects to the principal wife.
Zhou Lingyi was so irritated that his eyes turned red, and that was when he let the cat out of the bag.
Only then did Zhou Lingfu realize that they were planning to destroy the bridge after crossing it.
Even if Zhou Lingfu still had some affection for Prince An, after the miscarriage and what she had experienced for more than half a year, there was really not a trace of love left.
Now she just wanted to go against Zhou Lingyi and Prince An, and she would do whatever it took to make these two unhappy.
Zhou Lingyi seemed to realize that he had let the cat out of the bag and knew her intention, so he ordered his men to watch her more closely.
When she escaped again and was caught, she found a dog hole.
But she didn't say anything, she just silently noted the location.
She is biding her time.
Finally, she waited for this opportunity. Prince An went to war, and the guards in the palace were at their most lax.
She crawled through the dog hole and ran out desperately.
She had thought it through. Since the Yongning Marquis's Mansion was now controlled by the eldest wife's family, if she ran back to the Marquis's Mansion, she would be walking into a trap.
She had to run to General Lin's mansion first, inform General Lin of Zhou Lingyi and Prince An's plan to cross the river and destroy the bridge, and then ask General Lin to send someone to deliver the message to her mother.
Unfortunately, she was discovered and caught again.
Thinking of this, Zhou Lingfu was filled with resentment and vowed to expose Zhou Lingyi's true face to the world and make him pay for everything he had suffered in these days!
Zhou Lingyi listened to Zhou Lingfu's words without any fear. As an abandoned child of her family, even her second uncle ignored her and her grandmother gave up on her. What else could she do to shout?
This is what Zhou Lingyi thought and said, and it was even several times more unpleasant than he thought.
Zhou Lingfu's face flushed with anger as she yelled, "Bitch! There's no way my father would just ignore me. He must have been tricked by you!"
Zhou Lingyi sneered and said, "Why not?"
"Second Uncle has many illegitimate sons and daughters. Would he abandon his illegitimate children just because of your daughter?"
Zhou Lingfu was startled, then her eyes filled with anger, "Even if my father doesn't help me, I will never let you off easily!"
"Zhou Lingyi, my status may not be as high as yours, but there are always people with higher status than you. Lin Xiyan has taken the position you have dreamed of for many years. You must be extremely resentful."
Zhou Lingfu now harbored a grudge against both Prince An's Mansion and the Earl of Yongning's Mansion. She shouted at the top of her lungs, "Kill me if you dare, or just wait for me."
"If Lin Xiyan marries Prince An, you will no longer be able to do whatever you want in the palace. I will definitely go to see Lin Xiyan the day after the wedding. You can't trap me anymore. Then I will tell her about your evil ambitions. I want to see how Lin Xiyan will deal with you."
"In Prince An's heart, I am not as important as you, but between you and Lin Xiyan, who do you think Prince An will choose?"
When she said the last sentence, Zhou Lingfu looked crazy, as if she had already seen the scene of Zhou Lingyi being abandoned.
Zhou Lingyi's face twisted for a moment; Zhou Lingfu's words inadvertently hit her sore spot.
Between her and Daye, Zhou Lingyi knew very well that Prince An would definitely choose Daye. Since he was going to choose Daye, he would definitely favor Lin Xiyan.
Zhou Lingyi bit his lip, his chest heaving with anger.
She said to the old nanny beside her, "Put on the torture."
"Yes!" the old lady agreed.
Then he immediately approached with the wooden stick he had prepared long ago.
After a while, Zhou Lingfu's heart-wrenching cries of pain were heard in the house.
But even so, Zhou Lingfu was still cursing.
"Zhou Lingyi, you beast, there will be a day when you will be afraid, hahahaha!"
"I'm telling you, you've put me in this situation. As long as I'm not dead, I won't let you go! Haha—ah—"
"You dare not kill me, you dare not kill me! If you kill me, your hands will be stained with the blood of your own people. Your ancestors will never forgive you and will definitely punish you!"
“Hahaha, ah—you don’t dare to kill me!!!”
It was unknown how much time had passed, but Zhou Lingfu's ten fingers were covered in blood and flesh, and their original appearance was unrecognizable. She lay on the ground, breathing more in than out. Her already dirty face, mixed with tears and mucus, was even more unbearable to look at.
Her eyes were dazed, and she seemed to be about to lose her mind, but she was still muttering, "If you don't dare to kill me, I won't let you go..."
Zhou Lingyi was covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief as he walked forward to admire her miserable state. When he heard this, a hint of sarcasm flashed across his eyes.
Idiot! He actually thought that he was the one who didn't dare to kill her.
He had originally spared her life just to torture her and vent his own anger.
Later, when she learned that His Highness was going to marry Lin Xiyan, she realized it and came up with a good idea.
Anyway, Zhou Lingfu is just a worthless life, so we might as well make the best use of her.
Wait until His Highness marries Lin Xiyan on the night and then take Zhou Lingfu's life. This way, Lin Xiyan can be given a reputation of being intolerant and forcing a concubine to death as soon as she enters the house.
The Yongning Marquis's Mansion can also take advantage of the situation and profit from it, and His Highness will dislike Lin Xiyan because of her viciousness and be more inclined towards her.
It's not that I don't want to kill her, it's just that the time has not come yet.
