Chapter 208 Princess Pingyi of Chu?
Yu Er's figure flashed quickly like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye he appeared next to the group of men in black.
She held an extremely sharp blade in her hand and swung it lightly. There was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, followed by a dazzling flash of cold light.
In an instant, the group of men in black lost their lives before they even had time to let out a scream, and their lives disappeared in an instant.
Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu watched the horrific scene with their own eyes. Their faces instantly turned as pale as paper, as if all the blood had been drained away.
Their lips began to tremble uncontrollably, and their eyes revealed an unconcealable panic.
At this moment, Yu San and Yu Si stepped forward without hesitation, and used their broad bodies to protect Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu tightly. Yu Si said gently but firmly: "If you are afraid, then don't look at it anymore." Her voice was low, but it had a reassuring power.
At the same time, Zhuge Lianting saw all of this and was overwhelmed by an unprecedented fear.
His eyes, which were originally bright and lively, were now wide open, and his eyeballs seemed to almost fall out of their sockets.
His face was filled with an expression of extreme horror, and every wrinkle was distorted due to extreme fear. His body was shaking constantly.
Despite this, Zhuge Lianting still tried his best to get up from the ground.
He struggled to move his legs while shouting at the top of his lungs, "Ahhh... You are a cruel and ruthless woman, as vicious as a venomous snake! How could you do such a cruel and inhumane thing!"
However, in response to his rebuke, Murong Zixi simply responded with a cold smile.
The corners of her lips rose slightly, outlining an arc that was slightly contemptuous and sarcastic, as if she didn't care about Zhuge Lianting's anger at all.
"You say I'm vicious? If you didn't have evil intentions and tried to murder my life, how could you have ended up like this? In this complicated world, good is rewarded with good, and evil is punished with evil, and it is never wrong. What happened today is nothing but your own fault." Murong Zixi's words were as calm as water, but every word was as sharp as a knife.
Yu Da couldn't suppress her inner anger at this moment. She suddenly raised her foot and kicked Zhuge Lianting hard in the chest again.
The kick was so powerful that it sent Zhuge Lianting flying backwards and he fell heavily to the ground.
Zhuge Lianting groaned in pain. Due to his severe injuries, he could only lie on the ground weakly and gasp for breath.
Yu Da stood where he was, looking down at Zhuge Lianting, his eyes full of contempt.
Then, she turned to look at Murong Zixi and asked respectfully, "Master, this person is now useless. Should we get rid of him as well to avoid future troubles?"
Murong Zixi's extremely cold eyes swept across Zhuge Lianting like a sharp blade, and her eyes seemed to contain endless coldness and majesty. She said softly with a blank expression: "If he insists on not telling the truth, then I will do as you say."
At this moment, Zhuge Lianting deeply felt an unprecedented fear. It felt like the god of death was quietly approaching, making him shudder.
His face turned pale as paper in an instant, completely bloodless, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.
He begged for mercy in a panic, "Please... please don't kill me! As long as you are willing to let me go, no matter what you ask me to do, I will tell you everything, without a single lie!"
Murong Zixi slightly raised her eyebrows, a barely perceptible sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and there was a hint of teasing in her words: "Hmm? At this point, you still want to negotiate with me? Do you think you have any qualifications to bargain with me now? I give you two choices, either tell me the truth honestly, or you will die. Remember, don't try to deceive me with lies, otherwise the ending that awaits you will be more miserable than death."
Zhuge Lianting swallowed hard, trying to hold back the severe pain in his body. After a fierce struggle, he finally decided to bow to fate and gave in. "Okay, I'll tell you... Tell it to you! All this was ordered by Princess Pingyi. She is the most noble princess of our Chu State! She wanted to take your life. She promised me that as long as I could successfully get rid of you, when she successfully ascended the throne, I would be able to become her husband, enjoy all the glory and wealth, and govern the Chu State with her."
When Murong Zixi heard this, her eyebrows slightly frowned and a look of surprise appeared on her face: "Princess Pingyi? I have never met her before, why does she want to take her life?" Murong Zixi knew nothing about this Princess Pingyi from the State of Chu.
Zhuge Lianting on the side did not stop talking, but continued: "All of this is due to your special identity. In recent months, His Majesty unexpectedly began to secretly investigate an old matter. Back then, when His Majesty was still a prince, he had a crush on a woman in a border area.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened afterwards. The emperor was chased and unfortunately fell off a cliff.
Fortunately, he was saved by his trusted friends and was able to survive, but he also lost that crucial memory.
Somehow this matter reached the ears of Princess Pingyi. After months of open and secret investigations, she finally became convinced that you were most likely the blood descendant of the emperor.
The emperor has not yet taken a concubine or an empress, and has no children to enjoy his happiness. Under such circumstances, Princess Pingyi, as the most popular figure in the court and the one who has the greatest hope of succeeding the throne and becoming the next empress, cannot tolerate an unknown variable like you posing a potential threat to her position.
