Guide to tame my villainous husbands novel Chapter 1209

"Countess Yu, I dare say, why are you looking like that?" Fu Zhao looked at Yu Gen, who was staring at Mo Qiang with a confused expression on her face.

"It's nothing," Yu Gen shook her head. She was certain that she was extorted by Mo Qiang just now but despite being extorted, she did not find Mo Qiang disgusting. In fact, compared to the hypocrisy and lies of Yu Xinyi, Mo Qiang was like a fresh breath of air. At least that woman didn't do anything behind her back.

She was honest and straightforward, completely different from Yu Xinyi, who acted so obedient in front of her but was actually dissatisfied with every little thing that she did for her.

Yu Gen sighed and turned to look at Fu Zhao before saying, "Your majesty, can I meet with Yu Xinyi? There is something that I wish to say to her."

That girl had betrayed her so sinisterly; it was only right for her to say a few kind things to her before she was executed.

Fu Zhao glanced at Yu Gen. Seeing the determined look on her face, she nodded and said, "Very well. I will arrange for a guard to bring you to the prison cell where she is locked up. However, don't take her words to heart at all; that kind of girl—what was the point of even trying to deal with her?"

Yu Gen smiled and didn't say anything. Though she understood

Fu Zhao's meaning, she could not help but sigh in regret. After all, no matter what, she had raised that woman from the day she was born and swaddled in a onesie. How could the hurt ease so easily?

Fu Zhao also understood her predicament. After all, she too had a daughter who was waiting for her to die such that she could take over the throne. In fact, it would be right to say that compared to Yu Xunyi, who only wanted to usurp the dimension without killing Yu Gen, was still a bit kindhearted when compared to Fu Shi, who was eyeing her like a snake.

The smallest mistake and she would be killed.

Just three days ago, after she cleaned a few low-ranking officials, she found her cup laced with poison. The poison was not only odourless but also tasteless. Fortunately, Fu Zhao had trained in the arts of poison with Wen Gui and had the antidote, which saved her life or else she would be dead by now.

Her own daughter!

Fu Zhao hated Fu Shi but that woman was sly and knew how to hide behind too many sock puppets. This time around she actually pushed a maid who was found dead in the room, which belonged to her. The more she thought about it, the more Fu Zhao wished she could have killed Fu Shi when she was a child.
