The princess is killing like crazy again

"No, no, no, don't think that way, Miss Ning." Xiao Yurong waved her hand, "I admire you. Seriously, I really admire you."

Ning Rou gritted her teeth, thinking that Xiao Yurong was mocking her.

Her face was distorted. "Stop pretending!"

Xiao Yurong smiled, "I'm telling you the truth. Although you are a little stupid and your methods are inferior, I admire your heart, whether it is hatred or ambition."

She has always encouraged and admired those who are ambitious. Ning Rou was like a duckweed drifting with the current before, and only became alive when she hated her.

"What a pity! I definitely can't let you go alive," she said.

After he finished speaking, Yu Shu and a group of Fuyang guards emerged from the darkness and appeared behind the ambushing assassins.

Many people didn't even have time to react before they were hit on the neck by Fuyang Wei from behind and fell to the ground.

In almost an instant, Yu Shu's sword was already on Ning Rou's neck.

"Stop!" The masked man who held Du Xi hostage finally pulled off his veil.

Yi Yan sighed at the side: "Poor Huafa!"

"Oh, Lord Shizhong." Xiao Yurong looked over with a smile, "You are already old, and you are still accompanying your wife to the battle in person?"

The Minister ignored Xiao Yurong's ridicule and said hurriedly: "It has come to this! I am willing to be executed! I am willing to plead guilty! Princess, please let me go! She was just bewildered for a moment, that's why she did such a thing!"

"Wow, such deep emotions, so touching! In this situation, how can Princess not be soft-hearted?" Yi Yan looked at Xiao Yurong with a smile.

Xiao Yurong said lightly: "To cut the grass, you must uproot it. I don't dare to take such a risk."

"As long as Princess Zhaoyang is willing to spare her life! She has already realized her mistake, she will definitely leave Yujing and live out the rest of her life in anonymity in a place where no one can find her. She will no longer be an eyesore to the princess or cause trouble for her!" the attendant shouted.

Ning Rou spoke up at this time: "You don't need to plead for me! I would rather die than win!"

"It seems that your wife is not willing to accept the kindness of the Minister." Xiao Yurong raised her eyebrows with interest.

She said quietly, "You once swore to me here that your wife would not cause me any trouble."

It seems that Xiao Yurong is unwilling to let him go.

The minister gritted his teeth and thrust the knife in his hand against Du Xi's neck, "Let her go! Otherwise I will kill your lover!"

"Then I'll find another one." Xiao Yurong raised the corners of his lips slightly.

She meant it with real cruelty.

I didn't expect Xiao Yurong to be so cruel and not be moved at all.

The minister was shocked and hesitated for a moment, but this moment was enough.

Xie Deshu threw a dagger and hit the minister's wrist accurately.

The attendant screamed, loosened the knife in his hand, and took a step back.

He is already old and is still a civil servant. He is in a difficult situation and has to go on the field.

During this gap, Du Xi took the opportunity to run forward. Xiao Yurong stepped forward and caught Du Xi who jumped into her arms.

"Princess..." Du Xi felt like crying when he smelled the rich peony scent from Xiao Yurong's sleeves.

"Okay." Xiao Yurong lifted Du Xi up and pushed him aside to stand.

Du Xi looked at the corner of Xiao Yurong's sleeve, his eyes full of tears.

He loved Xiao Yurong hopelessly, and he knew that he would love Xiao Yurong hundreds or thousands of times more in the future.

Yu Shu also made a prompt decision and directly wiped Ning Rou's neck.

"Ah!!!" The minister screamed miserably as he looked at Ning Rou's corpse.

Xiao Yurong said calmly: "Kill them all."

Yi Yan, who was watching the show, applauded: "It's very exciting."

Fuyang Wei no longer hesitated, and with his sword he chopped down the people without leaving a single one alive.

"Alas." Xiao Yurong sighed softly, "Really, how could I have come up with such a stupid idea?"

Li Yaozhi said: "Your Highness killed the Minister without reporting to His Majesty. I'm afraid the officials will have something to report again."

Xiao Yurong touched her temples and said, "When have they not reported me? I just came back not long ago, and my father couldn't bear to scold me."

This is what it means to be fearless.

She thought for a moment, "Since the Ning family can sell their daughter for fame, I think they can't wear their official hats well. Shao Yan, think of a way to deal with it and don't let them stay in the officialdom anymore."

"Yes." Li Yaozhi lowered his eyes.

"But I have to talk to my father." Xiao Yurong thought for a moment, "Let's go to the palace."

She walked towards the gate of the mansion, took two steps and stopped, looking at Yi Yan who was lying on the side with his hands behind his head, looking leisurely.

I really can't bear to see this person idle away. I can't support someone who eats for free, right? Xiao Yurong half-closed his eyes.

"You, come with me." Xiao Yurong pointed at Yi Yan.

Yi Yan pointed at himself, "Ah? Me?"

The mess was left to Li Yaozhi to deal with, and Xiao Yurong's carriage went straight to the palace.

When the guards saw the Vermillion Bird pattern on the carriage, no one tried to stop it.

Xiao Yurong first carried Xiao Yuyuan out of the prince's residence before going to the imperial study.

Along the way, Yi Yan kept complaining that Xiao Yurong would not even let a child go and wanted to use him as a shield for family happiness.

"Father." Xiao Yurong carried Xiao Yuyuan into the imperial study.

Yi Yan followed her, lowering his presence, and saluted in a very non-standard and casual manner.

Xiao Yuxie and Xiao Yusheng were also there, but Xiao Yuxie lowered his head and looked unhappy, probably because he had just been scolded.

"Eldest brother and third brother are here too." Xiao Yurong said with a smile.

Xiao Yusheng nodded to her with a smile.

"You can still laugh?" Emperor Xiao said with a straight face, patting the paperweight, "This is just nonsense!"

It seems that Emperor Xiao already knows about this matter.

When Xiao Yurong just came in, the eunuch close to Emperor Xiao said that Emperor Xiao had just discussed matters with several ministers.

It seemed as if Emperor Xiao had just gotten very angry.

This is why Xiao Yurong and Xiao Yusheng are also here.

"There is also Yu Yuan, father. I am being scolded even though my injuries haven't fully healed yet." Xiao Yurong pursed his lips in grievance.

Emperor Xiao really fell for it.

His tone softened: “If you know you’ll get scolded, don’t do these ridiculous things!”

"What's wrong with killing her after reporting it? Do you have to be so anxious right now?" Emperor Xiao pointed at her head and asked with a look of disappointment.

Xiao Yuxie said, "Your Majesty, Rongrong was thinking about the country and the health of the Holy Spirit, so he killed the traitor first."

"Shut up!" Emperor Xiao threw the paperweight at him. "Don't I know what kind of person your sister is? Is it your turn to plead for her? I haven't even said anything about you yet!"

The paperweight hit Xiao Yuxie on the head, and Xiao Yuxie didn't even try to dodge and took it head on.

A red mark was left on his forehead, and even blood oozed out, but Xiao Yuxie knelt down as if he didn't notice it, "Your Majesty, calm down."

"Father!" Xiao Yurong was startled and hurried to support Xiao Yuxie, "What are you doing?"

She held Xiao Yuyuan in one hand and supported Xiao Yuxi with the other.

She was really surprised. Huo Zhao told her that Emperor Xiao was suspicious of Xiao Yuxie and favored Xiao Yusheng. She was already mentally prepared.

But she didn't expect that it had come to such an incompatible point.

Emperor Xiao pointed at Xiao Yuxie and cursed: "That Minister of Personnel is one of your retainers, right? How much silver has he embezzled? You are not good enough to control a small Minister. Are you still worthy of being a crown prince?"

He cursed and coughed: "Do you think that I have been ill for a long time and my time is running out? You are trying to replace me!"

This is already an extremely serious insult.

Disobedience to the king and father, disloyalty and unfilial piety have all come.

If we continue to talk about it, doesn’t it mean that we need to change the storage?

Xiao Yusheng tried to comfort him: "Your Majesty, calm down. Your Majesty is the most important."

Xiao Yuxie lowered his head, and Xiao Yurong could not see his expression clearly.

"Father, cough, cough, cough!" Xiao Yurong covered his mouth and started coughing.

Her face turned pale all of a sudden, and her body became shaky and she swayed as if she was about to fall down.

Yi Yan hurriedly supported Xiao Yurong and took Xiao Yuyuan from Xiao Yurong's arms.

Xiao Yurong leaned on Yi Yan's shoulder, breathing heavily.

This was the first time Yi Yan had seen this, and he was shocked by Xiao Yurong's ability to get sick or fall down at any time.

Emperor Xiao was the one who fell for it, and he quickly walked over from behind the imperial desk, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Yusheng also came to see Xiao Yurong and took Xiao Yurong from Yi Yan, "Rongrong?"

Yi Yan saw Xiao Yuxie move, but he still didn't move forward.

"Ahem!" Xiao Yurong coughed and waved his hands, "It's okay. I've been like this since I was a child. Aren't I used to it?"

"Nonsense." Emperor Xiao frowned, "You haven't recovered from your illness yet, and you're running around again."

Xiao Yurong shook his head. "I'm fine. I'll be fine after a rest."

After Xiao Yuyuan was carried by Yi Yan, she kept waving her hands towards Xiao Yurong, asking for a hug, "Sister... hug..."

"Stop messing with your sister. She's not feeling well." Emperor Xiao mercilessly slapped Xiao Yuyuan's chubby hand away.

Xiao Yuyuan pursed his lips in grievance.

"Among so many brothers and sisters, Yuyuan only likes Rongrong." Xiao Yusheng said with a smile.

Emperor Xiao finally smiled, "That's right."

Being interrupted by Xiao Yurong, Emperor Xiao forgot to scold Xiao Yuxie.

At this moment, his peripheral vision caught sight of Xiao Yuxie, and he waved his hand, saying unhappily, "Go back to your East Palace and reflect on yourself for a month."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Yuxie responded.

He lowered his eyes and walked out.

Emperor Xiao looked at Xiao Yurong again, "You caused this mess again. I don't know how those people will impeach you at the morning court tomorrow."

Xiao Yurong smiled: "That's why I came to the palace to seek the protection of my father. I will stay in the palace today and have dinner with my father."

Emperor Xiao snorted and laughed: "Alright, you can leave first. I have to review the memorials."

"I will not bother you any more, Your Majesty. I will take my leave now." Xiao Yusheng lowered his eyes and said respectfully.

"When it's time for dinner, I will come to accompany you, father," said Xiao Yurong.

Yi Yan bowed again in a very unbecoming manner, then hugged Xiao Yuyuan and followed Xiao Yurong out.

After leaving the imperial study, Xiao Yurong looked at Xiao Yusheng, "Third brother, father..."

"Don't talk about this, Rongrong." Xiao Yusheng seemed a little tired.

He rubbed his brows and sighed, "You and I are brothers and sisters, so we don't talk about this."

Xiao Yurong looked at him in silence.

Xiao Yusheng said: "Rongrong, no matter who takes that position, you are the most precious princess. I don't want you to get involved, so that you will be safe."

"Have you made up your mind to fight?" Xiao Yurong asked.

"I have no choice, sister." Xiao Yusheng closed his eyes, "I have no way out."

Having come to this point, how could he dare to retreat?

Xiao Yurong wanted to say something, but Xiao Yusheng held his shoulders.

"Okay, stop talking, Rongrong." Xiao Yusheng gently pushed Xiao Yurong's shoulder, "Big Brother will be under house arrest for a month, you should catch up with him and take a look."

He took Xiao Yuyuan from Yi Yan, who was still insisting on being held by Xiao Yurong, and said, "I'll take Yuyuan back, and you can go without worry."

"..." Xiao Yurong turned around and looked at Xiao Yusheng again.

Xiao Yusheng smiled: "Go ahead."

Xiao Yurong turned around and walked forward, and Yi Yan followed.

Xiao Yusheng just held Xiao Yuyuan in his arms and watched Xiao Yurong's back as he walked away.

Xiao Yuyuan angrily pushed Xiao Yusheng with his hand, "Sister is gone... Third brother is bad!"

"My good sixth brother." Xiao Yusheng rubbed Xiao Yuyuan's face, "Sister must...stay alive."

Xiao Yurong was upset all the way.

"He's leaving you a way out." Yi Yan said lazily, "He's afraid that you'll become estranged from your elder brother because of him. If he can't win the fight, you'll be implicated as well."

For some reason, the words that came out of his mouth sounded sarcastic: "What a good brother."

"Do you think I'm blind and can't see it?" Xiao Yurong had a blank expression.

Yi Yan continued, "And your father, he is really partial. The other children call him Your Majesty, but you call him Father."

Xiao Yurong said: "I know."

"Your father just wants your eldest brother and third brother to fight and prepare an impeccable successor in all aspects for this world of great contention." Yi Yan said.

Xiao Yurong stopped and asked, "What do you want to say?"

She knew everything Yi Yan said, but Yi Yan insisted on pointing it out and saying it so clearly.

"If your eldest brother and third brother are fighting to the death, who will you help?" Yi Yan asked with a smile.

Xiao Yurong was silent.

Yi Yan answered for her, "You will help your big brother, right?"

"Because you are close to your other brothers, but you and your eldest brother are born of the same mother and depend on each other for survival, which is the most different." Yi Yan even explained the reason.

Xiao Yurong frowned, "Why is this so? In their previous life, the two brothers lived in peace."

"Because of the butterfly effect." Yi Yan said, "Let me explain it this way. A butterfly flapping its wings in Yujing may cause a storm in Yinzhou. Any tiny details may be linked together and affect the development of things."

He smiled: "Before, there were powerful enemies surrounding us, and you, the Xiao family, were united in facing the outside world. But now, those external forces have basically been eliminated or temporarily suppressed by you, and the internal cracks are getting bigger and bigger."

"So they are like this because of... me?" Xiao Yurong pursed her lips.

Yi Yan patted her shoulder and said, "Not necessarily, because you are special."
