Situ Mantian's hands were dripping with blood, dyeing the white quilt red. She looked calm and didn't panic at all.
"I said, don't force me. If your highness forces me again and again, I don't dare to say what absurd things I will do!”
Chu Yixuan was a martial arts practitioner, so this small injury was nothing. He did not even look at his hand and moved closer to Situ Manyao.
"Is that so? I didn't expect my princess to know how to threaten people. Then I want to see what kind of absurd things you will do!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he reached out his uninjured hand to touch Situ Mantian's face. He had only wanted to scare her and tell her not to be so unscrupulous in front of him in the future. Who would have thought that Situ Mantian would stab him in the chest with the scissors in her hand!
Chu Yixuan was shocked. He stood on his tiptoes and quickly retreated a few meters. He looked at Situ Manyao in shock as if he was looking at a crazy woman.
"You're crazy! You actually want this king's life. Do you know that if I die, you can forget about living well in this world!”
He thought that she was just trying to be brave, but he didn't expect that she would stab him in a fatal spot without hesitation.
"If I'm crazy, it's because of you!”
Situ Mantiao roared as if he had broken down.
She thought about how Chu Yixuan had pressed her down without restraint for the past few days and her heart ached. No matter how weak her body was, she would not allow herself to be insulted by others.
"At most, I'll die together with your highness. In any case, I'm living a life worse than death in the wang fu. It's an honor to have your highness 'company.”
She was about to get off the bed, but Chu Yixuan thought she was going to continue. His heart skipped a beat and his eyes darkened.
"Situ Mantian, don't think that I won't kill you!”
Although her father was the current Prime Minister, if she still wanted to go overboard like this, he would not have too many scruples.
"I know you dare…"
Situ Manyao seemed to want to say something, but the people outside the north gate interrupted him.
"Wangye, are you alright?"
It turned out to be Chu Yixuan's servant who had heard the commotion in the room and guessed what had happened.
Chu Yixuan ignored him and kept his eyes on Situ Mantian, the expression in his eyes changing unpredictably.
"Situ Mantian, just because you have the ability to kill Ji Qing doesn't mean you can kill me too.”
After saying that, he was about to walk out. When he reached the door, he seemed to have thought of something and turned around to walk towards her.
Situ Mantian didn't know what he was trying to do and looked at him warily.
Chu Yixuan looked at her tense face and sneered. He slowly pulled out the scissors from her tightly held hands.
"Don't accidentally hurt yourself, this king's heart will ache.”
Situ Mantian looked into his cold eyes and felt as if she was about to be frozen into ice.
"Moreover, Ji Qing's whereabouts are still unknown. You can't let anything happen to you.”
Before he could finish his sentence, Chu Yixuan disappeared from the room, leaving only a faint scent on his body.
Situ Mantiao looked down at the blood on her hand with a determined look.
"Chu Yixuan, bring it on!”
"Wangye, is your hand alright?"”
The servant who was following Chu Yixuan was guarding the door and could vaguely hear the sound in the room. Although he was worried, he did not dare to barge in easily.
"I'm fine!"
Chu Yixuan didn't want to make a big deal out of it. If the Emperor or the Empress Dowager heard about it, he would have to investigate it carefully.
Situ Manyao couldn't be harmed right now. He wanted to personally return Ji Qing's suffering to her.
After returning to his room, he ordered the servant to close the door and prepared to treat his own wounds.
Back then, when he led his troops to the battlefield, he had suffered countless injuries of various sizes. Most of them were bandaged by him. How could such a small injury enter his eyes?
He gritted his teeth and tore off the rag at the wound. The inside was already a bloody mess.
Chu Yixuan couldn't help but curse in a low voice. It seemed that this woman was ruthless.
"Wangye, ChenQie has brewed lotus seed soup for you. I believe that recently you…"
Zi Dai was holding a tray in her hand. Seeing that the door was not tightly shut, she pushed it open and entered the room. Chu Yixuan did not have time to dodge and was seen clearly by her.
"Wangye, what happened to your hand?”
Zi Dai cried out in alarm. As a woman, she was naturally frightened when she saw the bloodstains on Chu Yixuan's hands.
"Quickly call the imperial physician, wangye is injured!”
She turned around and shouted at the door. Chu Yixuan quickly stopped her, his anger increasing.
"Who let you in? Get out!"
And he was shouting so loudly. If he didn't make a scene, everyone would know that he was dissatisfied.
"Wangye? You're injured and need to call the imperial physician!"
Zi Dai saw that Chu Yixuan's hands were covered in blood and naturally refused to leave. She put down the tray in her hand and ran to his side, anxiously checking him up and down.
"I said, get out!”
Chu Yixuan's anger grew and he pushed her hard with his uninjured hand. Zi Dai had no choice but to leave.
Chu Yixuan could not help but heave a sigh of relief when his ears were finally quiet. He saw the lotus seed soup on the table from the corner of his eye. He raised his hand and flipped it over. The porcelain white exquisite little gu was pushed to the ground and fell everywhere.
Zi Dai was extremely furious. The reason why His Highness treated her like this must have something to do with Situ Manyao.
He heard from the Blue Luan that he had been staying at the Greencloud Pavilion recently. It seemed that this princess consort also had some thoughts.
Recalling the scene she had just seen, she was also thoroughly frightened. She walked up to the servant and asked him.
"Where did your highness come from?”
Why did he bleed so much for no reason?
"Just now, wangye went to wangfei's place and just returned not long ago.”The servant did not know why she asked this question, but he still answered her respectfully.
"Did something happen?"
Zi Dai chased after him relentlessly. He had a feeling that Situ Mantian was most likely behind this!
"This servant stood at the door, not knowing what was happening in the room. I only heard sounds of fighting in the room in a daze.”
The servant looked at Zi Dai suspiciously and told her the truth. In the past, Madam Zi Dai had never bothered to talk to servants like them. What was wrong with her today? Why did she talk to him for so long?
A smile appeared on Zi Dai's face after she heard that. She glanced at the room before turning around and returning to her own room. This time, she, Situ Manyao, would not be able to escape so easily.
Early the next morning, someone came to the palace. It was Eunuch Heng, who served the Emperor. He always liked to gossip in the Emperor's ear. Fortunately, he was not a very evil person. The others turned a blind eye and did not care.
"Wangye, Eunuch Heng is here, saying that the emperor has summoned him!”
The servant boy gently knocked on the door. Presumably, the Emperor had something important to discuss. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ordered Eunuch Heng to deliver a message so early in the morning.
Chu Yixuan had practiced martial arts for many years and was more sensitive than ordinary people. He opened his eyes quickly when he heard the servant knocking on the door.
"Eunuch Heng, did you say why?”
In recent years, the country had been peaceful and prosperous. There were very few major matters that needed to be discussed.
"No, I haven't."
"Then let him wait!"
Chu Yixuan didn't mind. It was just that his royal brother was bored in the palace at that time and probably wanted him to go to the palace to catch up with him.
Although the wound on his hand had already been bandaged, it still hurt faintly. He frowned slightly and looked at it before lying back down, but he had no intention of sleeping again.
Yu Qing had already been missing for several days. She couldn't let this drag on any longer. Otherwise, she was afraid that nothing would turn into something bad!
As she thought about it, Situ Manyao's stubborn little face appeared in her mind again. She was a little stunned. Why would she think of her for no reason?
Perhaps it was because he hated her too much!
Chu Yixuan snorted coldly as an answer to himself.
An hour had passed by the time Chu Yixuan was dressed. He had just arrived at the hall when he saw Eunuch Heng waiting in his palace robes. There was a cup of tea on the tea table made of fine wood, which had long since lost its heat.
"Eunuch Heng, why didn't you sit down and wait? Benwang was too tired yesterday, so I woke up late today.”
Although he said that, there was no trace of apology on his face. He stood in the hall with his hands behind his back, and his temperament was fully revealed.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about? This servant has disturbed you.”
Eunuch Heng's expression was ugly, but he could not say anything. The two of them whispered for a while, and Chu Yixuan lost all patience and went straight to the point.
"I wonder why the emperor summoned me into the palace so early in the morning?”
Eunuch Heng served the Emperor, so he naturally knew many things.
"Wangye, last night the empress dowager heard some news from some unknown source and knew that wangye was injured. She is now worried. In order to see if you are well, the emperor specially asked this servant to summon you into the palace.”
Chu Yixuan was shocked. Not many people knew about his injury, so how did the empress dowager get the news?
"If your highness is ready, then let's go. I think you have waited for quite some time and are probably worried.”
Chu Yixuan's eyes flashed and he nodded as he followed behind Eunuch Heng. However, he was thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
What he was afraid of came true.
He thought that he had hidden it well, but he did not expect that the Empress Dowager would find out in the end.
Zi Dai and Qingluan stood on the corridor and watched the backs of Eunuch Heng and Chu Yixuan leave with a satisfied smile.
Assassinating a relative of the royal family was not a small matter. Even if she was the daughter of the prime minister, she would still be punished. It would be best if the prince divorced her!
This way, the four sisters would have a chance to stand out. Otherwise, perhaps only one of them would be suppressed by her.
"Sister Zidai, will this trick work? If it works, it's fine. But if it doesn't work, let's not talk about what we did for nothing. If His Highness finds out that it's us…then it'll be bad!”
The Blue Luan looked at the empty door with concern and frowned.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
