At this moment, the door opened and Yun Miao walked in.
Haoyuan involuntarily blocked in front of her, and his gaze became firm the moment he met Yun Miao's.
"Imperial Brother, what are you doing?" Yun Miao asked unhappily. Why are you stopping me?"
"You can't kill her." She…is about to give birth."
"Don't kill her? You don't want her to die, do you? I've long seen through your intentions, but don't forget that she's pregnant with someone else's child! If you don't kill her, then you want me to die? Royal brother, you know that between us, it's either you die or I die.”
"No, don't be like this. She doesn't want to fight for the throne with you. Let her go!”
"You don't want to fight with me?" Yun Miao sneered. Haha, you've all been deceived by her appearance. You all think that she's weak and kind, but in fact, she's the most powerful! Her abilities and methods are better than yours and mine. I underestimated her too much in the past. Royal brother, do you know? Mother clearly knew that she wasn't Sister Yunxi's daughter and still wanted to pass the throne to her. What kind of curse did she give her mother?”
Mother passed the throne to Xue Lin? How was this possible? How could that be? Hiroshi's face turned pale, and he immediately defended himself,"This is Mother's own decision. Xuexi had been staying at home all this time, so how could she affect her mother's decision?”
"So you still want to support her? Imperial Brother, I am your younger sister. I am the only one who is qualified to inherit the throne. It is fine if you don't help me, but why do you still want to protect her? We all know who she is. How can we hand over the empire left behind by our ancestors to an outsider? Mother is confused, are you also confused? Get out of the way, I want to kill this witch!”Yun Miao pushed him away and walked towards the bucket.
"If you want to kill you, kill me first." She didn't want to get involved in this matter. I was the one who brought her into this chess game, so it's all my fault. You should just kill me.”
"Why are you like this?" Yun Miao was furious. Royal brother, do you like her that much and care about her that much? Are you willing to give up your life for her?”
"Yes."
"Good! Good, good! You're really my good brother!" Yun Miao said yes three times in a row. When she looked at Hiroshi again, her eyes were already cold. She shouted at the door," Men, take His Highness away!”
Haoyuan grabbed Yun Miao's arm and said,""Don't do this! Don't kill her, please spare her life! Yun Miao, I've never begged you for anything. Just this once, okay?”
Yun Miao seemed to have never heard of this before. With a cold face, she emphasized,""Take him out!"
"No, I'm not going out! " Yun Miao, let her go, let her go…" Hao Yuan's voice gradually faded away.
The door closed, and Hiroshi's voice was shut out of the door. Then, it slowly faded away and disappeared. Only Zi Ke was left. Zi Ke couldn't be bothered to take care of Xue Lin anymore. He stepped forward and grabbed Yun Miao's skirt, pleading with tears in his eyes,""Princess Xue Xi is about to give birth. Please let her go for the time being! I promised my brother that I would take care of her. Please, Princess!”
Zike cried like a pear blossom in the rain. Her originally beautiful face now looked delicate and pitiful, making people love her. Yun Miao was also stunned for a moment. Her heart wavered slightly, but this was only for a moment. Thinking of the purpose of this trip, Yun Miao put away her temporary confusion and didn't look at Zike's face.
"Oh? Your brother? By the way, where's your brother? Why wasn't he here at this time? Did he run away because he was afraid? Since he has already given up, why don't you stay here?”
"No, he didn't! He was just looking for someone…"
"Find someone to save her? Haha, this is too funny. Even if he finds her now, do you think he can change the current situation? Distant water can't put out a nearby fire. You should know this, right? Zike, don't worry. As long as you and your brother are willing to cut ties with her, I won't make things difficult for you or the Prime Minister's Estate. I will reserve a place for the two of you in my harem.”
Zi Ke shook his head.
Yun Miao continued,"Zike, you're too silly, and so is your brother Ziqing. All of you have been deceived by her, do you know that? She was not Xuexi at all, much less a princess. She was a fake! Think about it, she used the identity of a fake princess to deceive you, married Ziqing, and wanted to harm him for the rest of his life. Only by killing her would all the humiliation end.”
"No, I don't believe it! Even if she wasn't a princess, even if she was fake, she still had her brother's child in her stomach! I want to keep this child, please, Princess!”
Before Yun Miao could say anything, Xue Lin's hoarse voice came from the bucket. She sounded extremely tired. "Zike, change the water."
Zi Ke didn't dare to be negligent and quickly ran over to get busy. Yun Miao looked at the two of them and said,"Aren't you about to give birth? Why are you soaking in the water?"
" Who said I'm going into labor?" Xue Lin said, enduring the pain. I'm just bathing."
"Bathing?" Yun Miao smiled faintly.
"Yeah, even if you die, you have to die clean. After taking a bath, you won't be so smelly after you die.”Xue Lin answered matter-of-factly. She glanced at Yun Miao and asked," What? Princess, do you still want to continue admiring it here?”
"Do I still need to wear clothes to bathe? This is the first time I've heard of it.”Yun Miao's sharp gaze swept across the wooden barrel and landed on Xue Lin's face. Her eyes were like an eagle looking for prey.
Sure enough, Xue Lin was a little flustered. She moved her mouth and made up a story,""I haven't taken it off yet, right? I was just about to ask Zike for help."
Yun Miao scanned the room suspiciously and walked towards Xue Lin.
At this moment, the sounds of fighting and killing could be heard from outside. The sounds came from outside the palace and got closer and closer. In the end, they seemed to have reached the courtyard. A palace servant hurriedly came in and reported,"Princess, it's bad. Princess Xue Xi's guards are back!”
A guard? Weren't there only eighteen people? Can it surpass 20,000 elite soldiers?
Yun Miao said indifferently," A mere dozen or so people are just like throwing eggs at a rock. Kill them all!"”
Xue Lin was anxious. Why did they come back? Wasn't this just courting death? She grabbed the edge of the bucket with one hand and tried to stand up, but failed. She could only say,"Yun Miao, this is between the two of us. Don't kill them…"
"They were the ones who wanted to die. Don't blame me. This princess would like to see how they will rush in to save you.”
The palace maid trembled and whispered,""Princess, it's not just a dozen people, it's…it's more than a hundred people! And their kung fu is surprisingly high. I feel like they are from the Jianghu.”
Yun Miao sensed the seriousness of the matter and her expression changed. She walked to Xue Lin's side and grabbed her arm, asking,""What's going on? You even colluded with people in the martial arts world? I really underestimated you in the past. I was too careless, but don't worry, I won't make this mistake a second time.”
Xue Lin was also very confused. How would she know what was going on? Of course, they didn't know that not long after Yun Liao was locked up in prison, Li Yuan had made his move. He had sent people to closely monitor every move of the royal family of Feng. Their army had already set off a month ago. Before that, their troops had already reached hundreds of miles outside the Imperial City. When necessary, these people would help Xue Lin ascend the throne smoothly, and then...
Yun Miao continued," Looks like I can't let you live today. Don't blame me. I had no choice. If you want to blame someone, blame your fate."”
"Don't do this!" Zi Ke broke Yun Miao's hand off and threw himself at Xue Lin to protect her." If I want to kill you, I'll kill Zi Ke!"”
"Get out of the way!" Yun Miao wanted to pull Zike over, but Zike had already made up his mind. No matter how she pulled, she couldn't move him at all. Yun Miao was furious. She pulled out her sword and was about to slash down when a figure rushed over at the speed of a hundred-meter sprint and used a sword to block her sword.
"It's you?"
"It's him?"
Xue Lin and Yun Miao exclaimed at the same time. Why would this person appear at this time?
Xue Lin didn't care about this person anymore because she had a strong premonition that she was really going to give birth this time. She needed to accumulate strength.
On the other side, Yun Miao glared hatefully at the person who came and said,""Yin Yicui, this princess helped your mother get revenge and even let you return to your original position. Is this how you repay me?”
"Princess Xuexi also helped me, so I will never let you touch her, Princess." Yin Yicui said lightly.”
"She helped you? Can she help you without me? You won't be able to take advantage of this hundred people. As long as I give the order, the archers will surround this place. No matter how good your martial arts are, you won't be able to escape.”Yun Miao said.
"Is that so? Then the princess could give it a try. At most, it would be a life-and-death struggle. I'm sorry, this Yin was also entrusted by someone to not let anything happen to Princess Xue Xi.”
"Are you deliberately making things difficult for me? Alright then, this princess won't stand on ceremony. Someone is coming…" More than ten experts appeared by the door and surrounded Yin Yicui. A fierce battle began.
On the other side, Xue Lin's face was covered in sweat. She was almost exhausted from using too much strength. She gritted her teeth and didn't dare to moan. She grabbed the edge of the bucket with one hand and Zi Ke's arm with the other. Her lips were already bleeding from biting.
"Princess, just hold on, just hold on a little longer.”Zike's arm was hurting from her grip, but he didn't even frown in order not to affect her.
Xue Lin breathed heavily. She saw Yicui Yin covered in blood. He seemed to be on the verge of collapse. The enemies around him changed one after another...
