[004] A Beautiful Illusion
At this moment, Li Luoluo’s mind had completely lost the ability to think. It was a blank slate, like a pure, flawless sheet of paper, waiting for the brush of fate to paint upon it.
Her feet no longer obeyed her commands; her toes curled and lifted involuntarily, as if trying to grasp that fleeting feeling of exquisite pleasure.
Then, suddenly, an extremely discordant—almost jarringly abrupt—voice rang out, like a sharp sword ruthlessly slicing through this beautiful illusion.
A glint of icy killing intent flashed across Li Luoluo’s eyes, a coldness that seemed capable of freezing the air around her.
The joy she had been immersed in instantly turned into the sensation of falling from heaven into an icy abyss, and a blazing anger ignited in her heart.
“Sister, how could you drive Beiming Heng away?”
“You snatched him from me in the past, now you want to chase him away again!”
“How can you be so cruel?”
The delicate, choking voice accused Li Luoluo of cruelty.
A chill ran down Li Luoluo’s spine, goosebumps rising instantly.
“Are you all dead? How could you let a mad dog bark at my bedroom door?”
Enduring the sudden mischief from Beiming Ye, Li Luoluo let out a low breath before angrily scolding her servants for doing nothing.
Before any of the servants could react, Li Yaoyao, after hearing Li Luoluo’s words, felt as if struck by lightning. Her emotions spiraled out of control, and she completely broke down!
Her eyes widened, face twisted in fury, and she screamed hysterically: “Sister, you’ve gone too far!”
“How dare you insult me like this, calling me a mad dog?”
“I will never let this go! I’m going straight to see Mother Empress to demand justice!”
With that, she pouted angrily, letting out a cold snort: “╭(╯^╰)╮”
She turned sharply and hurried off, intending to find their mother, Empress Li Yinghua, to report her grievance.
At that moment, the normally sullen and unpleasant Li Yaoyao suddenly heard a strange sound coming from Li Luoluo’s bedroom.
It was a sound of extreme pleasure mixed with unbearable pain!
This contradictory and bizarre noise stirred both curiosity and excitement in Li Yaoyao, though her anger quickly regained dominance.
Without hesitation, she swung her arms violently, pushing aside the servants who tried to stop her.
She then quickened her pace, rushing to the closed door of Li Luoluo’s bedroom.
Just as she lifted her foot to kick the door open, a sudden, bone-chilling cold swept over her like a raging tide.
In an instant, Li Yaoyao felt a shiver run through her entire body.
The cold seemed to penetrate her bones and reach deep into her soul, sending shivers down her spine.
Still, fueled by anger, Li Yaoyao did not retreat. She gritted her teeth, endured the discomfort, and continued to kick the door with all her strength.
“Li Yaoyao! If you don’t want to die, get out! Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to turn you into an ice sculpture!”
Li Luoluo, enduring the sensations brought on by Beiming Ye, cursed the incompetence of those around her. Even Li Yaoyao couldn’t be stopped.
“Princess Luoluo, you’re still distracted at a time like this? Seems it’s my fault!”
Beiming Ye gave a devilish smile and grew even more unruly.
Li Luoluo retreated step by step, overwhelmed, begging for mercy, while Beiming Ye grew more audacious, like a wild horse running free!
Outside the door, Li Yaoyao’s new and old grievances boiled over, making her even more desperate to burst into Li Luoluo’s room.
She wanted to see which male was driving Li Luoluo to madness!
Inside the bedroom, Li Luoluo had no time to split her attention.
When Li Yaoyao finally broke free from the servants restraining her and kicked the bedroom door open, ready to see the male with Li Luoluo…
A powerful force struck Li Yaoyao, sending her flying like a kite cut from its string!
She screamed, blood spraying from her mouth.
Her eyes dulled, her body swayed, and she fainted.
The surrounding servants were terrified, rushing to return Li Yaoyao to her Yaoluo Palace. Quick-witted attendants went to fetch a doctor to treat her immediately.
If anything happened to Li Yaoyao, they would be the first to die as scapegoats.
Soon, news of Li Yaoyao’s accident spread throughout the palace.
Empress Li Yinghua learned of it immediately, narrowing her eyes in frustration.
Her eldest daughter, Li Luoluo, was headstrong and willful; her second daughter, Li Yaoyao, was arrogant and overbearing.
From childhood, she had to coax one and soothe the other.
Now, what chaos were they causing again?
“Gong Jiu, tell me, what happened?”
Li Yinghua furrowed her brow slightly, her gaze turning cold.
The secret guard Gong Jiu appeared like a ghost and reported everything he knew in detail.
Li Yinghua was astonished, her voice rising: “What? Luoluo and Beiming Ye are… a couple?”
She sprang to her feet, eyes darting quickly, the calculation in her gaze flashing and disappearing.
Well, that’s good. Truly her daughter. Her judgment had improved. She could safely pass the throne to her.
“Your Majesty, I would never dare deceive you!”
Gong Jiu knelt quickly, frustrated, brow furrowed.
Li Yinghua waved him off and then issued several edicts via her holographic console.
Soon, various forces began to act, uniting to impeach Crown Princess Li Luoluo’s “evil deeds”!
They accused her of numerous crimes, seeking to depose the Crown Princess and replace her with Second Princess Li Yaoyao.
While Li Luoluo and Beiming Ye exhausted themselves and slept soundly, a conspiracy against Li Luoluo quietly unfolded!
She was completely unaware.
Meanwhile, Li Yaoyao, awakened by the doctors, struggled to rise and intended to go complain to her mother.
Her personal maid, Zhi Lan, whispered a few words in her ear.
Li Yaoyao couldn’t contain her hysterical laughter: “Hahaha… Luoluo, you really are a fool!”
“I never expected that, at the crucial moment, you would ruin yourself and hand me the position of Crown Princess!”
She laughed maniacally. Even though Li Luoluo had just been overwhelmed and beaten unconscious, Li Yaoyao didn’t care.
“Zhi Lan, you—”
Seeing herself about to become Crown Princess, Li Yaoyao hurriedly signaled her maid, whispering instructions for her to carry out her orders.
