Reincarnation: My Possessive Beast Husband Chapter 507: 509: The True Empress

Chapter 507: Chapter 509: The True Empress

“Don’t go; it’s easier if I go alone. Moreover, by staying here, should anything happen, you could handle it. I’ll be right back.”

Su Yan, finding his logic sound, decided not to go.

“Be careful. The Empress is probably tough to deal with,” she said, holding his hand, her voice laced with worry.

Chu Yuxiao gave a slight smile, the moonlight faint enough to reveal the amusent in his eyes.

“Alright then, I’m off.” He held her hand tighter, reluctant to let go.

“Mhm,” Su Yan was equally reluctant to release her grip.

Both saw the deep affection in the other’s eyes, and they couldn’t help but chuckle, releasing their hands at the sa ti.

Chu Yuxiao planted a quick kiss on her lips before turning to leave.

Su Yan didn’t bother with sleep anymore. She got up, dressed, and sat on the bed without lighting a candle, nervously awaiting Chu Yuxiao’s return.

In the Imperial Palace at night, lights blazed, with guards patrolling everywhere.

Not to ntion an assassin, not even a fly could flit about unnoticed.

Yet, it was under the very noses of these vigilant guards that Chu Yuxiao flew directly to Yihe Palace.

His speed was so fast it left behind nothing but a shadow; as he flitted by, it was done in the blink of an eye, completely undetected.

Landing gently on the roof of Yihe Palace, Chu Yuxiao held his breath and concentrated, carefully lifting a glazed tile to spy on the movents inside.

At this ti, it was 9 p.m., and the Empress hadn’t yet retired.

She bathed and changed out of her robes, removing her makeup before dismissing all her attendants.

Once she was alone in the grand hall, she approached the bed, lifted the bedclothes, and then pressed a chanism at the bed’s head.

There was a click, and the bedboard split and dropped down, revealing a compartnt within the bed.

Inside the compartnt lay a figure in white.

Chu Yuxiao had excellent vision; even though the person was haggard, with a deathly pale complexion, he recognized her face clearly.

It was the Empress’s face!

A face identical to the Empress’s.

However, the person lying in the compartnt seed much older than the standing Empress.

A cold smirk played on Chu Yuxiao’s lips, no doubt the one in the compartnt was the real Empress.
