Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1186

After Xiyue was poisoned by the Thousand Insect Powder, she was tortured every day until she was no longer human. The last living person was turned into a piece of human skin right under her eyes.

At this point, there was no need for Empress Dowager Jiqing to pretend that she had forgotten.

After enduring a round of pain, she panted and laughed, "Yes, you even came crying to question me, asking if I used Thousand Insect Powder on Xiyue? I didn't admit it at that time, and you had no evidence to do anything to me. Hahahaha... Shi Anxia, even if I admitted it, what would it matter? Could you have used my life at that time?"

Shi Anxia's gloomy gaze was as deep as light and shadow, with no end in sight.

Her voice was emotionless, but her heart ached. "Yes, if you don't admit it, I have no evidence."

She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh, as if this could alleviate the pain and unwillingness in her heart. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she forced them back.

She took a deep breath and mentioned another person, "Dong Xi knows some Kung Fu. You were afraid that she would find out that you killed Xiyue, so you used the Thousand Insect Powder to deal with Dong Xi. You also deliberately diverted the blame to Hong Que, making me mistakenly believe that Hong Que was the murderer who killed Xiyue and Dong Xi."

The Queen Mother tried hard to search her memory and sneered for a while, "Didn't you take the bait?"

"Yes, I'm stupid! I did doubt Hong Que at first." Shi Anxia raised an eyebrow, "But it was also that time that I began to trust Hong Que again. You've made things worse."

The Queen Mother smiled arrogantly, "So what if you have done something wrong? Even if you find out, can you still kill me?"

Shi Anxia smiled arrogantly, "Do you think you died for Dong Xi and Xi Yue in your previous life?"

The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, "What do you mean?"

"From the clues left by Dong Xi, I found out that both Dong Xi and Xi Yue were fed with poisoned wine containing Thousand Insect Powder by you, Queen Mother. I knew you would not survive."

The Queen Mother's pupils trembled, thinking of Feng Shiyu who had been cruel to her in this life. She died at the hands of this old woman in her previous life. Could it be that...

Shi Anxia curled her lips and nodded slightly, "Yes, I found out that there was a person named Feng Shiyu who wanted to take revenge but couldn't get close to you. So I secretly revealed your whereabouts to the Six Gods Temple. Sure enough, she didn't let me down and stabbed you seriously. Everyone thought that you died because her knife was poisoned."

In an instant, it was like opening a magic box of memories. She couldn't tell whether it was the pain of death from her last life or this life. It was as if double, no, a thousand times, ten thousand times the pain was sweeping towards the Empress Dowager.

Shi Anxia smiled, her smile was poisonous, "In fact, you didn't die at the hands of Feng Shiyu. You could have survived, but I gave you the Thousand Insect Powder. Your good grandson thought you were dying in an ugly way, so he refused to step into your bedroom. It was me, I was the one who served you every step of the way! I watched with my own eyes as you were devoured by the Thousand Insect Powder bit by bit, and you were in excruciating pain. Just like now, I watched you slowly die, and in the end, only a piece of skin was left."

"Stop talking!" Empress Dowager Jiqing widened her eyes, her eyes full of shock and fear.

Her voice trembled, and she gritted her teeth: "Shi Anxia, you...how dare you treat me like this? Wasn't it good enough for me to treat you in my last life? So what if I kill a few of your girls? How dare you be so cruel..."

"You just used me as a mascot." Shi Anxia's eyes flashed with hatred, "And Hong Que, you had her buried alive. If I hadn't arrived in time, she would have died. I will settle this account as well."

"I am only clearing the way for you! She is just a cheap girl who climbed onto the emperor's bed. Burying her alive would be the least of my worries." The Queen Mother said viciously, "You should be grateful to me! I am venting my anger for you!"

Shi Anxia lowered her eyes and replied with disgust, "You are as shameless as Emperor Rongguang!"
