After entering the book, the vicious female supporting role became the heroine

Xiao Jinghan walked with difficulty to the middle of the two carriages. His face was as pale as paper, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

Facing the tense Zhong Lengqiu and Luo Lingyue, he said with a hint of helplessness and persuasion: "You two should both say less. The Prince of Kaiyang's Mansion and the General's Mansion are old friends. Why bother to start a war over a small matter, or even to fight and kill each other... cough cough cough!"

Zhong Lengqiu looked at this nosy person fiercely, and the anger in her heart was instantly ignited. She shouted angrily: "Who are you? It's not your turn to take care of things here!"

Xiao Jinghan's body trembled slightly, and he coughed a few times. Although his voice was soft, it was firm: "I am Xiao Jinghan, the prince of Wu'an!"

A sneer appeared on Zhong Lengqiu's lips, and her eyes were full of contempt: "Oh? You are the sickly prince? You still want to meddle in other people's business? You are just a hostage detained in the capital!" Her words were like a sharp blade, deeply hurting Xiao Jinghan's heart.

Xiao Jinghan clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he tried to keep himself calm. He straightened his back and spoke with neither arrogance nor servility: "Although I am a hostage, I am also the prince of Wu'an. I believe that right and wrong are in the hearts of the people. Even if you are the Prince of Kaiyang, you cannot kill others at will!" His eyes were firm and bright, as if telling Zhong Lengqiu that he would never succumb to the other party's power.

The virtuous king who came out with Xiao Jinghan stood in the crowd. He looked cold and fixed his gaze on Zhong Lengqiu.

He took out his jade pendant and said to his followers in a low voice, "Go and ask Jingzhao Yin Langming and Dali Temple Lu Zheng to come here immediately and tell them that someone is trying to murder Prince Xiao and me! Hurry!"

A trace of hatred flashed across the eyes of the virtuous king. He thought to himself, Zhong Lengqiu, you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Kaiyang prince and the nephew-in-law of the Queen Mother Xue! Today you are making trouble in front of me, so don't blame me for being ruthless!

According to the clues he found, Empress Dowager Xue was definitely involved in his mother's death! The Xue family also fanned the flames!

The Xue family wanted to swindle Princess Luo. Who wouldn't be able to do that? He didn't mind making a bigger fuss about it, preferably to the Emperor Wen and Empress Dowager Xue. At this moment, his chest was burning with anger, as if he wanted to burn everything in front of him to ashes.

Zhong Lengqiu's eyes widened with anger, and he roared at Xiao Jinghan with a ferocious face: "Get out of here! I must kill Luo Lingyue today!"

Luo Lingyue looked at Xiao Jinghan who was standing in front of her in horror, her heart full of emotion and worry. She anxiously said softly: "Master Xiao, please leave here quickly! Don't worry about me!"

However, before she finished her words, a sharp sword came at Xiao Jinghan like lightning. Xiao Jinghan flashed, his feet swayed, and he suddenly fell directly onto Luo Lingyue. He spurted out a mouthful of blood, staining Luo Lingyue's clothes red.

Seeing this, the wise king Chu Shiyou was extremely anxious. He quickly ran to Xiao Jinghan's side, trying to block the sword with his body. However, the sword was as flexible as a venomous snake, and it passed through his sleeves, leaving a string of blood.

Luo Lingyue hugged the unconscious Xiao Jinghan tightly, tears streaming down her face. Her voice trembled as she cried out with endless fear and grief, "Prince Xiao! Prince Xiao! Don't scare me!" Her heart seemed to be torn apart and she was in unbearable pain.

Lang Ming and Lu Zheng hurriedly brought their men along with the entourage of the wise king. When they witnessed this thrilling scene, their faces turned pale instantly, and their hearts were filled with fear and despair.

They knew very well that if King Xian and Xiao Jinghan met with an accident in Shangjing City, not only would they lose their own heads, but their own clansmen would also be implicated!

Who on earth was so audacious as to murder the royal family and Prince Xiao in public! Lang Ming and Lu Zheng gnashed their teeth and angrily directed their men: "Quick! Go and arrest the murderer in public! Send Prince Xiao and the virtuous king to the palace to seek treatment from the imperial physician immediately!" Their voices were filled with urgency and determination, hoping that this tragic situation could still be saved.

Zhong Lengqiu opened her eyes wide, her face full of anger, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "I am the eldest daughter-in-law of Kaiyang Mansion! How dare anyone touch a hair on my head!" Her voice was deafening, full of majesty and confidence.

When Lang Ming and Lu Zheng heard this, they secretly complained in their hearts! They knew that the power of the Kaiyang Palace was huge and they could not afford to offend it.

Lang Ming and Lu Zheng looked at each other, their eyes full of anxiety and helplessness. Lu Zheng looked at Lang Ming and asked: What should we do?

Lang Ming shook his head helplessly, secretly regretting in his heart: I should have pretended to be sick and let my subordinates handle this matter!

Seeing that the two of them were making eye contact with each other but did not dare to step forward to arrest Zhong Lengqiu, the virtuous king could not help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. His face became extremely gloomy, and he shouted angrily with a dark face: "Assassinating the royal family in the street! The Kaiyang Palace is really bold! If His Majesty was with me today, could it be that you want to murder His Majesty as well!" His voice was like thunder, echoing in the air, making people shudder.

Zhong Lengqiu's face turned pale as paper in an instant, her lips trembled, and there was a hint of fear in her voice: "You slandered me! It was obviously you who bumped into me!" Her eyes flashed with grievance and anger, as if they were about to spit fire.

Lu Zheng and Lang Ming's faces were filled with anxiety, and their heads seemed to be about to explode, because the seriousness of the matter was beyond their imagination. They sent their men without hesitation to rush the unconscious Xiao Shizi to the palace, and at the same time sent people to the palace to look for Gao Gonggong.

Eunuch Gao hurried to the imperial study and reported to Emperor Wen what had happened. After hearing this, Emperor Wen was furious, and his eyes were full of anger and disappointment.

He couldn't tolerate Zhong Lengqiu's arrogance. A Kaiyang Palace dared to kill the virtuous king in the street. This was a serious provocation to the dignity of the royal family! And Xiao Jinghan, who in the capital didn't know how important he was. If he died, Nanyi would definitely rebel! War would be inevitable!

Emperor Wen suppressed the rage that was about to burst out in his voice. He roared in anger: "Kaiyang Palace! They are really good relatives of mine! Very good! Very good! I think they are going to rebel!"

Emperor Wen's face was as still as a dead pool. He clenched his fists tightly and said coldly, "Gao Rui! You must lead the imperial guards to assist Lu Zheng and Lang Ming immediately, and bring in all the people from the Prince Kaiyang's Palace and the General's Palace! I will personally interrogate them and will not show any leniency!"

Emperor Wen rushed to the Haoxue Palace in a panic, only to see Luo Lingyue standing alone in front of Xiao Jinghan's bed, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, which was heartbreaking.

Emperor Wen felt a sharp pain in his heart. He quickly walked to Luo Lingyue and anxiously asked the imperial physician, "How is Prince Xiao's injury? Is it serious?"

The imperial physician's face was filled with sorrow, and he replied worriedly, "Your Majesty! Prince Xiao was injured by the sword energy, and the toxins that were originally suppressed in his body have relapsed! I'm afraid his life is in danger! This old minister is really powerless to help!"

Luo Lingyue burst into tears and fell to her knees with a thud: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault! It was I who implicated Prince Xiao!" Her voice was full of self-blame and grief.
