After the death of the host: the tyrant cried red eyes
Chapter 60 Knowing everything
If she made the slightest mistake, she would be dragged back to the cold and damp dungeon abyss again.
She would never allow herself to make the same mistake again.
She had to face Xiao Yi and solve all this, avoiding angering him while also subtly calming him down and making him forget the idea of punishing her...
This is undoubtedly a daunting challenge.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Bingning came up with a plan and secretly made up her mind: "I've decided, I'm going to..."
When the system heard her plan, it was surprised and a little worried: "Have you thought it through?"
"of course."
The corners of Shen Bingning's eyes slightly raised, and there was a light of determination and confidence flashing in her eyes.
Since running away would only arouse his anger, she would do the opposite and take the initiative!
"Okay, setting up the teleportation point for you—"
Before he finished his words, a sudden gust of wind swept in, and the secret guards on the treetops were blinded by the blown sand. When they rubbed their eyes and looked again, there was no one on the ground. Shen Bingning disappeared without a trace like a phantom.
"Where's the Queen?!"
The secret guard on the right asked in panic.
The secret guard on the left also looked confused and could only shake his head.
The face of the secret guard on the right suddenly turned gloomy.
It's unbelievable that a person could just evaporate silently in the blink of an eye.
You know, they are extremely sensitive to their surroundings, and even the slightest sound cannot escape their ears. However, when she left, she did not leave any trace.
Could it be that she has mastered some extraordinary martial arts?
No, that seems unlikely.
If that were the case, she would not have been captured so easily in the first place.
So, how did she do it?
Feeling the heavy atmosphere in the air, the dark guard on the left couldn't help but ask, "What do you think?"
The secret guard on the right shook his head, his tone revealing a hint of coldness: "The Queen... is far more complicated than we imagined."
After the target disappeared, the two secret guards split up and tried their best to search for Shen Bingning. They checked almost all possible routes out of the palace, but still failed to find any trace of her.
After searching in vain, they could only return as soon as possible and report this sudden situation to Xiao Yi.
Inside the room, smoke was curling up from the incense burner. Xiao Yi was lazily leaning against the back of a chair with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was resting. On the table was a cup of tea that had already cooled down.
Sensing movement in the room, he slowly opened his eyes and looked through the window. As expected, he saw the wooden window being gently pushed open, and two figures walked into the room one after the other.
He rested his chin on his hand, gently picked up the teacup, and asked indifferently: "What's the result?"
Although he seemed calm on the surface, the subtle tension in his eyes was inadvertently revealed. Even the cup of lukewarm tea in his hand failed to attract his attention. It was as if the whole world was waiting for a crucial answer, and the only sound was the passing of time.
The left guard and the right guard exchanged a subtle look, which showed both the uneasiness about the facts that were about to be revealed and the worry about the master's mood changes.
Finally, the right guard mustered up the courage to break the silence, his voice low and clear:
"Reporting to the Lord, Shen Bingning has indeed... escaped."
Before he finished his words, a crisp breaking sound suddenly rang out, and the teacup in Xiao Yi's hand turned into pieces in an instant of anger and scattered on the ground, just like his shattered mood at the moment.
His face was terrifyingly gloomy, as if the sky was covered with dark clouds, foreshadowing an impending storm. The oppressive atmosphere made the air around him solidify, making people shudder.
He once gave her the opportunity to choose, so clear and direct, hoping that she could see her sincerity.
However, she chose another path without looking back at him.
Why? What on earth was it about Xiao Qian that made her so determined?
A strong murderous aura surged from Xiao Yi's body. He clenched his fists tightly, and his joints made creaking sounds due to excessive force. His anger was almost out of control, almost burning his sanity to ashes.
"Sir, calm down!"
The left and right guards felt the murderous aura that was almost materialized, and they immediately knelt on the ground. The left guard was even more eager to calm the storm, and explained quickly:
"Although the queen escaped, the moment she rushed out of that door, she...she..."
Recalling the amazing power of that kick, Zuo Hu couldn't help swallowing. The scene was so shocking that he was speechless for a moment.
Xiao Yi suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart, his eyes slightly red, and asked with a trembling voice:
"What did she do?"
Zuo Hu lowered his head in embarrassment and reported truthfully:
"She, she kicked Xiao Qian back to the dungeon."
"...?"
Xiao Yi was slightly stunned, and the anger on his face instantly turned into incredible confusion, as if this news exceeded all his expectations. He was stunned for several seconds before gradually returning to normal.
Shen Bingning...
He actually kicked Xiao Qian back to the dungeon?
He had never imagined this ending in any of his dreams.
Complex emotions flickered in his deep eyes. Xiao Yi gently brushed away the debris in his hands, his heart surging with waves.
He remembered that Shen Bingning was almost obsessed with Xiao Qian for a period of time.
That was the fourth year of their life together. She, who had always been indifferent to the outside world, suddenly became extremely busy.
At first, he thought she had found her own interest and didn't think much about it.
But as time went on, she was away more and more often, and spent less and less time with him.
Driven by loneliness and loss, he secretly stalked her for the first time.
As a result, he discovered a heartbreaking fact - the woman he cherished was actually taking the initiative to please his half-brother, Xiao Qian.
At that time, he had no ambition for the throne, he just felt that having her by his side was enough for his life.
However, when he saw her approaching with a smile on her face, but was met with indifference and disdain from Xiao Qian, the seeds of jealousy quietly sprouted in his heart.
Xiao Qian was definitely not a good person, and he knew it very well.
Although he is a crown prince, Xiao Qian often hangs out in brothels and is surrounded by beautiful women. He is obviously not someone worthy of entrusting one's life to.
He tried to persuade her earnestly, but Shen Bingning seemed to be bewitched by some magic. She turned a deaf ear to his advice and still insisted on pursuing the iceberg.
How could a girl like her kick Xiao Qian back to the dungeon?
This was simply beyond imagination. Xiao Yi stroked his chin, unable to understand it no matter what.
However, it is undeniable that my originally heavy mood inexplicably became much lighter after I heard the news.
The left and right guards felt the subtle change in the atmosphere and breathed a sigh of relief. They were about to continue their report, but hesitated:
"However, a small accident happened along the way..."
