The princess is killing like crazy again

Chapter 62 The world is as black as crows

Xiao Yurong asked the question she had never dared to ask: "After I die, what will be Yu Yuan's fate?"

Yi Yan paused for a moment and said, "Ah, he died too."

Although Xiao Yurong was prepared, he still closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

"After Wang Fuxuan found him, he secretly sent him to Cui Ci Ning. Cui Ci Ning finally kept him and raised him up." Yi Yan said.

"Cui Ci Ning?" Xiao Yurong was surprised.

She never thought that Cui Ci Ning would be willing to raise her younger brother. Shouldn't he hate her to the core and want to kill her family first?

"Yes, you were surprised too, right?" Yi Yan nodded. "A few years later, Wang Fuxuan died of illness, and Cui Qining didn't live long either. It was your brother who saw him off to his final journey."

Xiao Yurong could probably guess, "And then what? Did my stupid brother really go out for revenge?"

"Yeah." Yi Yan said calmly, "A young and immature boy like him can't beat Liu Pinjue. Liu Pinjue didn't intend to kill him, he wanted to put him under house arrest until he died."

Observing Xiao Yurong's expression, Yi Yan raised his eyebrows, "You are also surprised, right? A person like Liu Pinjue was not completely eradicated, and he even left some people behind."

He smiled: "But your brother is also a hot-tempered person. He cursed Liu Pinjue in public, and then hit himself on the knife and committed suicide."

"He said that if it were you, you would not be a prisoner and eat charity." Yi Yan pinched his chin and moved closer to Xiao Yurong, "Would you?"

Xiao Yurong pushed Yi Yan's face away expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay." Yi Yan stood up straight and shrugged his shoulders.

"Go catch up with your big brother now. You'll have to wait for a month before you're released from house arrest," Yi Yan said.

Xiao Yurong nodded and quickened his pace to move forward.

Yi Yan paced for a while before walking away slowly.

He planned to give the brother and sister enough time and space to chat.

He sighed, "I am so considerate. How could there be such a kind person as me?"

"What a pity." Yi Yan looked into the distance dimly.

It's just a pity that his majesty's time is really coming to an end and he doesn't have much time left. He is just holding on for a last breath.

After all, no matter when, Your Majesty has been in poor health since the death of the late Queen.

I'm afraid there will be chaos by then. I wonder who will ascend to the throne if everything has changed this time?

No matter who it is, the little princess will probably cry until her eyes turn red.

After all, the world is so big, the mountains and rivers are so beautiful, how much love and hate can be expressed in words?

The vast land will not yield to her tears.

The scenes of brothers fighting each other and killing each other are always exciting no matter how many years have passed.

"Brother!" Xiao Yurong caught up with Xiao Yuxie.

Hearing Xiao Yurong's voice, Xiao Yuxie stopped but did not turn around.

"Brother." Xiao Yurong walked up to Xiao Yuxie, lifted up Xiao Yuxie's face, and checked the wound that Xiao Yuxie had just been hit by the paperweight.

The wound was now red and swollen, and a trickle of blood flowed to Xiao Yuxie's eyebrows and was about to flow into his eyes.

Xiao Yurong raised her hand and gently wiped it off, feeling a little distressed, "Why did father use such a heavy hand?"

Xiao Yurong's hand was still wrapped around the curtain, and was gently held by Xiao Yuxie.

As if he was afraid of touching Xiao Yurong's wound, Xiao Yuxie quickly let go of his hand, "It's okay."

Xiao Yuxie remained quite calm, "Your Majesty wants him to compete with me."

"Brother..." Xiao Yurong hesitated to speak.

"Just now, His Majesty was discussing matters with several ministers, and he loudly reprimanded me for my poor supervision in front of them. This was to let everyone know that even the smallest mistake could lead to my eternal damnation." Xiao Yuxie said, "I, the crown prince, am nothing yet."

He laughed and said, "Your Majesty is just trampling and praising."

Xiao Yuxie knew since he was a child that only in front of Xiao Yurong was Emperor Xiao a real father.

For example, the second prince Xiao Yuxun, who almost never appeared, spoke ill of his brothers and sisters when they were young, mocking them for being born by a mother but not raised by her.

Xiao Yurong pounced on him and started wrestling with him. The two young boys had no idea what it meant to show mercy.

Xiao Yuxun accidentally pushed Xiao Yurong onto a rock, causing his head to hit the rock and bleed.

Xiao Yurong also pushed Xiao Yuxun, and his left eye was cut by a tree branch, and he could no longer see.

When Xiao Yuxie went over to pull the two people apart, both of them were already injured.

Xiao Yusheng was also nearby and was stunned by the scene.

Chu Le would not have a one-eyed emperor, so Xiao Yuxun's mother rushed to Xiao Yurong like crazy, demanding an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

Xiao Yusheng knelt on the ground and said the ironic words of Xiao Yuxun that he was born by his mother but not raised by her.

The furious Emperor Xiao slapped Xiao Yuxie in the face, accusing him of not taking good care of his younger siblings as an elder brother, which led to such consequences.

The matter ended up being left unresolved and was lightly passed over by Emperor Xiao.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that Emperor Xiao favored Xiao Yurong.

Xiao Yuxun was soon sent to a distant fiefdom by Emperor Xiao. Being crowned king at such a young age also cut off all his chances of further advancement.

Basically he only returns to Beijing once a year, and now he hasn't been back to Yujing for several years.

Every time he was summoned back to the annual banquet, he had all kinds of excuses to refuse.

Over the years, he has always been known for not caring about government affairs and only loving poetry. However, the poetry he wrote is really not that good.

Emperor Xiao still felt somewhat guilty towards his second son. In recent years, despite his illness, he often asked him to return to Beijing to live for a while.

Xiao Yurong also fell seriously ill because she had been lying in bed for a long time, which made her already poor health even worse.

Xiao Yurong held his hand, "Brother, Father and Third Brother..."

"Okay, sister." Xiao Yuxie held Xiao Yurong's hand, "Don't get involved in this mess. Leave it to me."

He warned: "Don't get into any big trouble during this month of confinement. I can't help you during the confinement."

"Don't worry, brother, I'm not looking for trouble every day." Xiao Yurong said.

Xiao Yuxie leaned over and kissed Xiao Yurong on the forehead, "Take care of yourself."

"Take care of yourself too." Xiao Yurong nodded.

Xiao Yuxie got on the carriage, and Xiao Yurong stood there watching the carriage drive away.

It seemed as if she was the only one standing there, looking back hesitantly and repeatedly.

Looking back at those past years of brotherhood and friendship, I am stuck in the memories and reluctant to take a step forward.

The people around me no longer hesitate and stride forward.

After seeing Xiao Yuxie off, Xiao Yurong took Yi Yan to stay in the palace for one night.

Xiao Yurong seemed to be in a low mood throughout the entire evening.

Yi Yan raised his hand and touched the corner of Xiao Yurong's eyes, but felt no moisture.

But he lay on the pillow and said, "Are you really sad?"

"What do you know?" Xiao Yurong pulled her hair from Yi Yan's hand.

"Then... do you want to divert our attention?" Yi Yan took Xiao Yurong's hand, brought her into his arms, and rubbed her temples affectionately with his nose.

Seeing Xiao Yurong's intention, Yi Yan moved closer and smiled: "Come on, the good night is too short."

Xiao Yurong's body was buried in the soft silk quilt, her head resting on the pillow, breathing hot air.

"Compared to them, I am much less of a worry, right?" Yi Yan laughed, "I am someone who never gets jealous."

"I know how many lovers you have, and I am friendly to all of them." He leaned over and breathed into Xiao Yurong's ear.

The skin around Xiao Yurong's rosy ears was particularly thin and tender, and one could almost see the veins.

Her lips were rosy, and every breath she exhaled sounded as if she was joking about her troubles.

The long eyelashes kept flickering, and the thin eyelids.

"You?" Xiao Yurong seemed to be mocking.

Yi Yan looked at Xiao Yurong's face that was as beautiful as a peony. He knew very well how cruel and seductive this domineering little princess was. All of this was still lurking in the deep night and had not surfaced yet.

Therefore, no gratitude or oath of loyalty could be expected from her.

So Yi Yan covered her mouth to prevent her from saying bad things.

"Am I not the kindest and most generous person around you?" Yi Yan asked.

Xiao Yurong laughed, "Shao Yan can find a good-looking male lover for me, can you find one for me?"

Yi Yan pinched her face and said, "That's enough. Isn't it enough that you have so many staff members in your house? With staff members and concubines, your house will be unable to support them all."

Yi Yan saw the obvious mockery in Xiao Yurong's eyes.

"Alas." Yi Yan sighed quietly, "It seems that I will never be able to be your magnanimous wife in this life."

"There has always been a handsome young man in Yujing." He said, "You and him shine like the sun and the moon, and I am just the ditch, which can only reflect you two."

He didn't seem that sad or upset.

Xiao Yurong was about to say a few more words to stab him, but he grabbed her hand and pulled it in front of him.

"Little princess." He curved his lips.

"Why do you keep calling me little princess?" Xiao Yurong raised her eyes and asked, "Although I was the youngest child of the emperor before, Yuyuan is the youngest now."

Yi Yan tilted his head, "Aha, this is a nickname, not a respectful name."

He didn't dare tell Xiao Yurong the teasing meaning behind this title, although he felt that Xiao Yurong might be proud of it.

After all, Xiao Yurong is a princess.

He tapped the tip of Xiao Yurong's nose, "Troublemaker, little liar, little lunatic, little princess."

Xiao Yurong frowned.

"You ruined my plan before." Yi Yan said.

"What plan? Are you planning to become an emperor while playing with the world? This is within the palace. If anyone tells anyone about your plan, your entire clan will be killed." Xiao Yurong sneered.

Yi Yan was extremely shameless. "Go ahead and say it. If the king wants the subject to die, the subject must die. Anyway, none of my nine clans are in this world, so you can kill me."

Xiao Yurong raised his eyebrows, "Don't you miss your relatives? How did you travel through time?"

"I don't have any relatives in that world." Yi Yan laughed, "I'm a spy, an orphan."

He looked so heartless.

Xiao Yurong was silent.

"What's the matter? Are you worried about me?" Yi Yan smiled and moved closer. "Now it's because you are so interesting that I've temporarily given up my previous plan to follow you."

"Oh? So you can come back to life anytime and anywhere?" Xiao Yurong suddenly came to his senses, and that little bit of sympathy was thrown out of the window.

Yi Yan nodded seriously, "That's natural. If one day you become boring, I will definitely find a way to make life interesting again."

"I travel all over the country by myself, and it's my hobby to go against those princes and nobles." He said with a smile, "It's not what I want to live a safe life. What I want is fun."

"Heh." Xiao Yurong sneered.

"So, you must continue to be interesting." Yi Yan kissed Xiao Yurong on the corner of her lips, "I'm looking forward to it."

Xiao Yurong glanced at him coldly, "You are really heartless and ungrateful."

"That's right. The fact that we can hang out together shows that we are the same kind of people." Yi Yan smiled and hugged Xiao Yurong's waist. "After all, all crows in this world are equally black."

Early the next morning, Xiao Yurong attended the morning court with Emperor Xiao.

On the way to Xuanzheng Hall, Emperor Xiao said to Xiao Yurong, "The memorials impeaching you written by the censors are almost piling up on the imperial desk."

Xiao Yurong was quite curious: "Are you still criticizing me for saying that women should take care of their husbands and children and should not show their faces in public or go in and out of government offices?"

"This time it's better. Those were all said before you won the battle." Emperor Xiao said, "Since you returned victorious, they have been scolding you for your character."

Emperor Xiao did not say anything, and some people even said that Xiao Yurong was plotting treason.

He warned: "Don't fight with anyone later, do you hear me?"

"I know. I'm not a lunatic." Xiao Yurong curled his lips.

How crazy must she be to beat up an important official in public during the morning court session?

However, facts have proved that no one knows a son better than his father, and Emperor Xiao still has a certain understanding of his daughter.

"The princess is arrogant and perverts the law. She is corrupt and nepotistic. She appoints people based on personal connections. This is beyond the law of the country."

"Princess Zhaoyang has committed many evil deeds, irritating the heavens and the people! The six ministries each have their own duties and are under the control of the prime minister, but the prime minister's son Li Yaozhi never knows how to avoid suspicion!"

"The princess is in charge of the Fuyang Guards and has done everything she can. I hope Your Majesty will enforce the law impartially and take back the Fuyang Guards!"

"Princess Zhaoyang actually killed the Minister and his wife in the palace yesterday. Even though these two people committed a serious crime, the princess took the matter into her own hands without reporting it. Does she still have the law in her eyes?"

"Inside Yujing, under the feet of the emperor, the princess can be so arrogant! It is conceivable that during the two years of marching, the princess will definitely not be conscientious and abide by her duties."

A group of ministers, led by the Grand Censor, gave advice.

Xiao Yurong sneered: "You all make impassioned speeches, but do you have any evidence?"

"We have both witnesses and evidence! Your Majesty, please take a look!" Immediately, a minister knelt on the ground with the evidence in his hands.

The so-called certification was also called up.

"Although I am a lowly person and my words carry little weight, now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to stand up and speak out impartially!" A soldier in armor knelt on the ground and repeated the evidences he had just heard.

Xiao Yurong sneered. Just grab a random imperial soldier whom she couldn't even remember and convict her?
