You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

It has been a long time since anyone dared to hold a sword against him like this.

The last time someone pointed a sword at him, he had them skinned and fed to the dogs.

The deep phoenix eyes glanced at the person with a flushed face, and a few tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. She looked so pitiful!

Yubai's hand loosened, his dark eyes were as deep as a cold pond, and his voice was chilly:

"Lin Zhaoyue, you have really grown in ability!"

When Lin Zhaoyue heard Xiao Yun's words, her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly.

Did he think Qingzhu was instructed by her?

She didn't even know that Qingzhu knew martial arts.

In his previous life, Qingzhu had never shown his skills in front of her.

Lin Zhaoyue fell to the ground, breathing heavily, her red eyes staring at Qingzhu who was holding the sword steadily.

It seemed that since her rebirth, many things had deviated from her previous life.

Lin Zhaoyue retched and tried to spit out Xiao Yan's medicine, but it was in vain.

Qingzhu glanced at Lin Zhaoyue, who was lying on the ground in a somewhat disheveled state, and looked at Xiao Yun with even more murderous intent.

The bones of his fingers holding the hilt turned white.

Xiao Yun lowered his eyes and looked at the sharp sword against his chest, and said coldly:

"Someone, there is a thorn..."

Before she could finish her words, there was a bang and Lin Zhaoyue lifted up her skirt and knelt down.

Because her physical strength had not recovered and she had been drugged, she was kneeling unsteadily, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

A strange blush appeared on her cheeks.

"Miss……"

Qingzhu looked at her in disbelief, his hand holding the hilt of the sword trembling slightly.

The apple of Duke Lin's eye, from childhood to adulthood, she had never seen her young lady kneel before anyone.

"Zhao Yue knows she was wrong. My maidservant did this only because she was worried about the safety of this servant. If His Royal Highness wants to punish me, please punish me alone. As for the drugging, I was bewildered and made a mistake. I will take the responsibility alone. No matter how His Royal Highness punishes me, I will accept it. I hope that His Royal Highness will be magnanimous and not implicate others."

"Miss, this is none of your business. It's Qingzhu herself..."

"Qingzhu, put down your sword, kneel down, and admit your mistake to His Highness."

Seeing that Qingzhu was unmoved, Lin Zhaoyue's voice became lowered.

"Qingzhu, what's wrong? Now you don't even listen to the young lady's words?"

"Qingzhu doesn't dare."

Putting down the sword, Qingzhu knelt down.

She clenched her hands tightly at her sides, determined to repay the humiliation she suffered today a hundredfold in the future.

What Xiao Yun said just now was right. The nature of assassination and drugging is completely different. Drugging can be said to be a childish prank, but assassination involves more than just chopping off the head. If there really is someone in the Duke's Mansion who wants to assassinate the crown prince, they will definitely be implicated.

Looking at the person kneeling on the ground, Xiao Yun's dark eyes darkened completely, and that handsome face seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.

He was the prince of Anguo. Many people had knelt before him since he was a child, but only Lin Zhaoyue's kneeling was like a huge rock hitting his chest, causing dull pain and a rage that had burned to the extreme and was waiting to erupt.

The jade ring in his hand was crushed by him. He looked at Lin Zhaoyue and gritted his teeth:

"Okay, Lin Zhaoyue, you like kneeling, right? Then I will let you kneel as much as you want."

As he spoke, the man strode towards her, with great anger, grabbed her hand, and dragged her to a yard.

The yard was brightly lit and filled with shadows of people.

A strong smell of Chinese herbal medicine wafted from inside, and everyone passing by had a solemn look on their faces. Occasionally, a maid would go in with a basin of ice water and come out with cold water.

Lin Zhaoyue knew that Liu Yiyi was in there and was being tortured because Xiao Yan did not have sex with her in time.

"Lin Zhaoyue, just kneel here and wait until Yiyi is safe and sound. You'd better pray that she is okay, otherwise I won't be able to chop off ten of your heads!"

After saying this, the man threw his sleeves and left with great anger.

"Miss, it's all Qingzhu's fault. Qingzhu was just impulsive."

Just now, Xiao Yan wanted to capture her in the name of assassination, so the young lady knelt down and begged the prince.

"Miss, I know you were impulsive because you were worried about me. Miss doesn't blame you."

If kneeling could save people, she would kneel until he got tired of it.

What is dignity?

Her back had been broken in a previous life.

It's all because of her.

Qingzhu's eyes turned red and started to shed little pearls again. She also knelt down.

"He only told me to kneel. Why do you have to suffer this? Get up quickly."

"Qingzhu, don't do that. Qingzhu will kneel down with the young lady."

Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded, Lin Zhaoyue stopped talking and said:

"When did you learn martial arts? How come I didn't know about it?"

"I have been able to do this since I was a child, otherwise why would the Duke choose me to serve the young lady?"

"But why haven't I heard you mention it?"

"Then Miss didn't ask Qingzhu! Besides, Miss has never encountered any danger, and I haven't had the opportunity to show my skills."

"But you keep crying?"

"Miss, is there any conflict between crying and Qingzhu Club's martial arts?"

Lin Zhaoyue: …

Looking at the master and servant who were punished by him to kneel in the yard and still had the leisure to chat, the fire in his chest did not go out, but burned more and more fiercely.

He threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, breaking it into pieces. The people in the room who heard the noise became even more afraid to breathe.

They were all the prince's men, and they had never seen the prince get so angry:

"Lin Zhaoyue, come in here and kneel down in front of Yiyi's bed to serve me!"

A voice of suppressed anger came from the room, and Lin Zhaoyue tightened her hands hidden in her sleeves.

He really knows how to humiliate people!

Lin Zhaoyue pursed her red lips, with a hint of white.

"It's just too much!"

Qingzhu said this and stood up to rush in.

Lin Zhaoyue held her hand and said:

"Qingzhu, if you continue to be impulsive, you don't know what he will do next. It's just serving people, so you can just go. It won't cost you a piece of meat."

"Miss……"

He was willing to kill all nine clans of Liu Yiyi's family, but he just knelt down and served.

The medicine in the body began to take effect. It was like being thrown into a furnace. I felt hot and lack of oxygen, and my head was dizzy.

Coming to the exquisitely carved wooden bed, the bed curtains were hanging lightly, and a white arm stretched out, shining and wet with sweat.

A weak voice came from the veil:

"Brother Ying, Sister Yue's mistake was unintentional. You don't have to make things difficult for her."

She is kind, delicate, and weak, while she is arrogant, vulgar, and vicious. What a sharp contrast. No wonder Xiao Yan can't stop thinking about her and keeps her at the top of his heart.

Lin Zhaoyue didn't look at Xiao Yun who was emitting cold air. She knelt down in front of the bed with a bang, took the handkerchief from the maid, and began to serve her.

Liu Yiyi's maid knew that it was Lin Zhaoyue who poisoned her girl, and she held a grudge against her. Before leaving, she took advantage of the friction between her clothes and hit her hard with her knee.

The love poison in Lin Zhaoyue's body took effect, and she didn't have much strength to begin with. When she was pushed by her husband, she fell forward and into the basin of ice water in front of her.
