Xu Ling 'er tried her best to suppress the bitterness in her heart." Since the Crown Prince has come to find me, I can only go back with him." However, I have something to ask the Crown Prince.”She paused as she spoke. Looking at Mu Yunlan's indifferent gaze, she said,"Was everything that happened in the past just a fake show?”
Mu Yunlan's heart ached. He opened his mouth slightly and heard his own voice.
"Yes."
Xu Ling 'er smiled bitterly. She swayed her body and took a step toward him. But the next moment, she was hugged tightly by Xiao Hu.
"Sister! You can't go with him! He looks like a bad person!"
Little Tian was standing in front of Xu Ling 'er. His thin body suddenly became very tall. He looked at Mu Yunlan with a burning gaze. Under Mu Yunlan's cold gaze, he did not move at all.
Xu Ling 'er patted Xiao Hu's hand comfortingly." It's okay. Sister is just going to take a look. She'll be back."”
"Liar! Sister, you're lying! They were all carrying knives! Are they going to kill you? Isn't that right?"
Xu Ling 'er's eyes were filled with pain. Sometimes, a child's sensitivity was really a very distressing thing.
She slowly pried Xiaohu's hands away and walked toward Mu Yunlan. She knew what was waiting for her, but she had to face it. It was not up to her at all.
"Sister! Little Tian, let go of me!" Xiaohu struggled desperately, but he was still a child after all. How could he break free from Xiaotian's hand?
Little Tian lowered her head and said nothing.
Xu Ling 'er looked at him worriedly and walked to Mu Yunlan's side. The soldiers quickly surrounded her. However, her gaze was fixed on Mu Yunlan.
That calm gaze made Mu Yunlan's heart throb in pain.
"I should have known that you were no different from him.”
Mu Yunlan frowned and wanted to explain, but she swallowed her words. "Take him away," he ordered coldly.
"Sister!" Little Tiger shouted hysterically. With a sudden push, he broke free from Little Tian's shackles and pounced towards Mu Yunlan. He lay on her arm and bit her hard.
Mu Yunlan felt the pain and subconsciously shook him off.
His weak body drew an arc in the air and fell heavily on the steps.
Blood instantly flowed out from the back of his head, like a bewitching red spider lily.
Xu Ling 'er stood rooted to the ground as if she had been struck by lightning. However, she quickly reacted. She turned around and knocked down the soldier beside her, rushing to Little Tiger's side.
"Little Tiger!"
"Sister…"
"Don't say anything. I'll take you to see a doctor! I will definitely save you!" Xu Ling 'er said as she held Little Tiger in her arms. His thin body was as light as a feather.
"Sister, Little Tiger can't grow up anymore. I can't marry my sister anymore…"
"It won't happen. It wouldn't happen. "Xiaohu won't die…" Xu Ling 'er shook her head violently, but Xiaohu's eyes were still closed.
It was as if he was asleep, calm and peaceful.
Little Tian turned around angrily and glared at Mu Yunlan.
Mu Yunlan looked at them without a change in expression and did not say a word.
Xu Ling 'er slowly stood up and placed Little Tiger on the ground.
"Little Tian, get out of the way."
Little Tian was slightly startled and stood to the side obediently. He suddenly felt that the aura of this woman in front of him had suddenly become extremely powerful, like a demon who had walked out of hell.
However, her gaze was calm, and no one felt any danger.
But in the next second, Little Tian knew that he was wrong. That person was like an arrow that had left the bow as he rushed out. With a flash of cold light, she seemed to have taken a large knife from someone's waist. When she looked again, those soldiers had already fallen to the ground. Blood flowed out from their necks. The air was filled with the thick smell of blood.
He suddenly felt that the female general in the story was the person in front of him.
Xu Ling 'er placed him on Mu Yunlan's neck, her eyes filled with killing intent.
"Why did you attack a child?”
"I missed," Mu Yunlan said indifferently.
Xu Ling 'er's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. She exerted force with her hand, and a bloody wound appeared on Mu Yunlan's neck. Bright red blood flowed out of the knife.
"You should know that you are no match for me. If you still want those three children to live, you'd better come with me obediently.”
"Are you threatening me?"
"Yes."
Xu Ling 'er was furious. She raised the saber in her hand high and slashed Mu Yunlan's hand. Fresh blood instantly dyed Mu Yunlan's sleeves red.
Little Tian looked at her in shock. He did not understand why she did not kill him when it was clearly a sure-win situation.
Xu Ling 'er seemed to have used up all her strength. The saber in her hand fell to the ground and she walked forward dejectedly.
Mu Yunlan looked at the frightened child. She took off the jade pendant on her waist and threw it in front of Little Tian. Then, she turned around indifferently and followed behind Xu Linger.
From the beginning to the end, he did not show any expression. He did not even frown when Xu Ling 'er stabbed him.
Xu Ling 'er felt as if her heart had died. She could not feel any heartbeat. Or rather, she had feelings. It was just that she was numb from the pain. She could not feel anything else.
She thought that Mu Yunlan would take her to the prison or kill her. However, she did not expect him to lock her up in a cold palace.
The Cold Palace was rarely visited by people, and because it was the residence of the abolished concubine, everyone felt that it was very unlucky. He was unwilling to come.
She stood alone in the desolate courtyard and slowly turned around to look at the timid little palace maid who appeared at the door.
"Who are you?"
Xu Ling 'er was covered in blood. Although it wasn't hers, it was enough to scare people. The little palace maid was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"This servant was sent by His Highness the Crown Prince to monitor Young Lady.”
"I have no intention of escaping. I don't need to be monitored.”
The palace maid raised her head slightly." Miss, even if you want to escape, you can't.”She bit her lip and continued,"This place has been monitored by the experts of the palace." As long as the girl stepped out of this door, she would die.”
Xu Ling 'er's eyelashes fluttered as she smiled bitterly." Why didn't he just kill me?" I even saved a portion of food."
"Miss…"
"I don't need you here. You can leave.”
The palace maid buried her head very, very low." Miss, please be kind and let me stay." The Crown Prince said that if I couldn't stay by your side, he would take my life.”
Xu Ling 'er's eyes turned slightly and her gaze fell on the palace maid. The palace maid trembled violently, feeling that the woman in front of her was too terrifying.
Xu Ling 'er smiled coldly and said in a cold tone," What does your life or death have to do with me?”#
