Empress Dowager Cixi died
Wei Zifu was almost frantic, using her hands to break free from the grasp of the palace maids, and in pain, she put her hand into her mouth, wanting to dig out the salt. But the more anxious she became, the more forcefully her fingernails collided with the wound.
At this time, she really wanted to faint.
Lou Guifei looked down at Wei Zifu, who was at a loss for words, and said: "You're talking nonsense, so I'll make sure you don't have a tongue. Last time I warned you, I said this time I wouldn't let you off."
Suddenly, her gaze swept to the garden exit, where a small palace maid was carefully making her way out. Consort Lou shouted: "You think you can escape? Come back here!"
Xiaogongnv's body trembled, and she turned her head to glance at Lou Guifei. Seeing that Lou Guifei was indeed looking in her direction, she knew she had already been exposed. She hastily pulled away, fearing that she would end up like Wei Jieyu.
"Look back at the palace maid and said: "You two go after her, can't let her tell the emperor."
After the two palace maids left, Lou Guifei stood beside Wei Jieyu: "Since someone has gone to inform on you, I won't let you live any longer." She paused and said to the other palace maids: "You, pin her down for me, don't let her move around, especially her head."
The palace maid followed the words of Lou Guifei and did as she was told. Wei Jieyu was pressed to the ground, her head shaking back and forth, with blood spilling out of her mouth and splashing all over the floor.
Lou Guifei seemed to have taken a step back in disgust, then furrowed her brow and said: "Hurry up and hold her down for me."
Two palace maids freed their hands and one of them pressed down on Wei Zifu's sides, only then could her head be still.
Lou Guifei stepped forward, opened the scissors and placed them on Wei Zhiyu's neck: "This neck is really slender and white, it makes me reluctant to take action. However, this is where you make sounds, I can't leave it here." After finishing speaking, she slowly closed the scissors in her hand.
Wei Zifu, who was pinned to the ground, clearly heard what Lou Guifei was saying, but she was powerless to refute her and couldn't say anything. Now, she only regretted why she had gone to mock Lou Guifei. She hadn't expected that Lou Guifei would be such a ruthless woman.
She just wants to die and end this suffering as soon as possible.
The scissors had already shed a faint trail of blood, and it seemed as if everyone could hear the sound of skin being sliced open.
At this time, Lou Guifei suddenly stopped. Everyone thought she wouldn't take Wei Jieyu's life when she opened the scissors again. However, this time, she only opened them a little and used the tip of the scissors to slowly cut open Wei Jieyu's skin, one point at a time, and then slowly cut off her neck, one point at a time.
The moment the scissors cut open, blood gushed out.
Lou Guifei turned her horse sideways, and the blood stained half of her face. At this moment, she looked like a demon from hell, dangerous and terrifying.
Wei Zifu lay on the ground, struggled violently for a few moments, and then stopped moving.
However, Consort Lou seemed to be still unaware and continued to cut her neck.
When the emperor arrived at the garden with his entourage, what he saw made him disbelieve. The palace maids were all standing aside by now, and Lou Guifei was still crouching alone, mechanically repeating the motion of opening the scissors and then cutting down with force. Wei Zifu's neck had already been cut open halfway, her bones exposed, and the lower half of her face was covered in bloodstains.
Just by looking at Wei Zifu's appearance, it can be known that she has already passed away.
The emperor immediately ordered the guards beside him: "Seize Lou Guifei!"
