Chapter 109 Severing all her attachments to this world
Seeing that Zhai Rongyu remained silent, Jun Yinghuai knew that she had not seen it.
"You don't know yet, do you?" A sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips. "This letter mentions your background."
"Aren't you curious?"
Jun Yinghuai's gaze was fixed on the flames on her talisman.
He refused to believe that Zhai Rongyu could actually burn these letters!
Zhai Rongyu was taken aback.
【life experience?】
Am I not my father's biological son?
"The legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official, yet born with a blemish on her record. If people find out about this, where will Minister Zhai put his old face?"
Jun Yinghuai slowly smiled.
The thought that even the all-powerful Miss Zhai could be manipulated by someone filled him with immense pleasure.
Zhai Rongyu's gaze sharpened.
It seems Father doesn't want me to see this letter; he's afraid I'll overthink it.
However, this matter is not mentioned in the book.
She considered it carefully, lowering her eyes to ponder for a moment.
This is very strange; it needs to be investigated carefully.
As for this letter...
She had promised her father that she wouldn't go.
Leaving these letters would only put the Zhai family on the hot seat, wouldn't that be more in line with Jun Yinghuai's wishes?
Even without these letters, she could still get to the bottom of this matter.
Thinking of this, Zhai Rong waved her hand, and the flames on the talisman licked the letter, instantly igniting it.
With a flick of her wrist, the stack of letters rose into the air, where they were reduced to ashes in the firelight, reflecting Jun Yinghuai's distorted face.
"You... how dare you..."
Zhai Rongyu scoffed lightly, "What wouldn't I dare to do?"
"I never imagined that His Highness the Crown Prince would care so much about other people's family affairs."
"Do you have nothing better to do than submit memorials to the emperor?"
Her light laugh was laced with blatant sarcasm.
The emperor was seriously ill, and the crown prince should have been in charge of the country, but instead a regent was appointed. Who knows if this was not a sign of distrust towards the crown prince?
Zhai Rong's words struck at Jun Yinghuai's weak point, and he was immediately enraged.
But before he could react, Zhai Rongyu delivered a fatal blow.
"It's quite a coincidence."
"I also have some gossip about His Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder which is more sensational, the one you know or the one you don't?"
"What do you mean?" Jun Yinghuai's eyes were sinister.
Upon hearing this, the surrounding guards immediately retreated several feet away and covered their ears.
They don't want to lose their heads because of gossip.
Zhai Rongyu, composed and at ease, said:
"Do you think the whole country would be shocked if everyone knew that their Crown Prince was a reincarnated person?"
"Tsk tsk, I wonder if they'll arrest you as a monster."
She swayed the ribbon around her waist.
Jun Yinghuai's long sword clattered to the ground, and he stumbled back two steps in disbelief.
"How do you know..."
"You actually knew that..."
He raised his head, his deep eyes bloodshot, like raging flames, as if he wanted to devour Zhai Rongyu completely.
"who are you?!"
His thin voice carried an extreme danger.
Zhai Rongyu didn't answer, a smile playing on her lips as she warned him, "If you spread the Zhai family's affairs to the public, I'm afraid my mouth won't be able to keep the secret either~"
She's an expert at gossiping.
There's always a saying that one melon is better than another.
Jun Yinghuai's topic is far more sensational than her being the daughter of a minor official.
When the whole city is in an uproar, who will remember her gossip?
Seeing Jun Yinghuai's face grow increasingly dark, Zhai Rongyu put down the ribbon and sighed, "Having been reborn, how come you still can't understand life?"
"Wasn't the evil you committed in your past life enough?"
Why repeat the same mistakes in this life?
"What do you know?!" Jun Yinghuai shouted frantically, "Mu Ling belongs to me! Even if she escapes to the ends of the earth, I will find her!"
"It is because of this obsession that I have been given the chance to be reborn!"
"She and I, we will be together in life and in death, our white graves and withered bones, forever entangled in each other!"
"No one can take her away from me!"
His eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty ferocity.
"You've really gone mad." Zhai Rongyu was also somewhat alarmed by his appearance.
He secretly resolved to send Zhai Muling away.
She stopped provoking Jun Yinghuai and said in a cold voice, "You have no more evidence. I advise you to release my father and brothers as soon as possible."
"Your framing is full of holes."
"The Regent and I have both met that assassin, and he knows he is one of your men."
“If he finds out about this, and has someone examine your wounds, he will soon be able to find alibis for my father and brother.”
"Your attempts to argue are useless."
Jun Yinghuai narrowed his eyes, knowing that he had already lost the initiative.
If they insist on punishing the Zhai family, there might be a way.
only……
He glanced at Zhai Rongyu with some apprehension.
What exactly is her relationship with Uncle Wang?
If we act rashly and displease Uncle Wang, we will only be able to satisfy our momentary impulses, and there will be no other benefits.
Since we're currently at a disadvantage, it's better to let them go for now.
As long as the Zhai family still exists, he is not afraid that Mu Ling will not appear!
He suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth as he called over the guards.
"What are your orders, Your Highness?"
"Go to the Dali Temple and release Minister Zhai and his men."
He gave the order with a dark expression.
The guards were ordered to go to the Dali Temple to release the people.
Zhai Rongyu's dimples spread slightly at the corners of her mouth.
"Wouldn't it be better if it was like this earlier?"
Jun Yinghuai suppressed his emotions and said in a cold voice, "But for now, I've gotten what you want. Don't be too quick to laugh!"
"The outcome is still undecided."
"If I catch you red-handed, let's see how long you can remain smug!"
Zhai Rongyu made a face.
"It won't be long before you're so smug you kick the bucket~"
"you!"
Zhai Rongyu did not want to get entangled with him, so she burned the talisman and disappeared from the spot.
Jun Yinghuai's face was covered in frost as he ordered his guards, "Go and find out what the relationship is between Uncle Wang and this Miss Zhai."
"Yes!"
Jun Yinghuai lowered his head, his dark eyes filled with a bloodthirsty desire.
He wanted to sever all of Mu Ling's ties to this world!
Then, she will only have him left.
We can only rely on him.
In my eyes and in my heart, there is only him...
When he finds the right opportunity, he will make sure that the entire Zhai family disappears from this world!

Zhai Rongyu returned to the Minister's residence and waited for a long time before finally seeing Minister Zhai and his entourage return.
"Father! Eldest brother! Second brother!"
She went to meet him.
"How are you? Are you suffering in prison?"
She circled around the three of them, carefully examining them for any wounds.
Minister Zhai stopped her with a smile.
"Rong'er, we are all fine."
Aside from verbal threats, he did not suffer any physical pain.
"Little sister, I never imagined you had such ability, actually managing to get the Crown Prince to release us." Zhai Jiqing exclaimed in admiration.
He stuffed a scroll into his sleeve.
With no one to bother him in prison, he actually read a few more books!
Zhai Sangjie reached out and ruffled Zhai Rongyu's hair with his large hand, laughing heartily, "Our little sister here is quite capable."
"I heard that even the dogs in the backyard are afraid to mess with her."
"Big brother!" Zhai Rongyu playfully slapped his hand away.
The group joked and played around for a while.
The two concubines rushed from the backyard to the front hall, "Master! You're finally back!"
They are the second and fourth concubines.
The second concubine glanced at Zhai Rongyu and said with some resentment, "If it weren't for the second young lady's background, the master wouldn't have been wrongly arrested and imprisoned."
Upon hearing this, everyone present froze on the spot.
life experience???
What is the younger sister's background?
Zhai Jiqing looked at Zhai Sangjie with some confusion, only to see his elder brother look away.
His brows furrowed.
Zhai Rongyu glanced at Minister Zhai, then at Zhai Sangjie and the second concubine, and raised an eyebrow.
Wow, quite a few people know the inside story.
