She stood in the yard, looking at the two people inside through the window, and did not call out to Chu Qingyue.

Chu Qingyue did not go to the palace. This was a remote courtyard where he met with the Northern Barbarians.

There were more than a dozen Beiyi people standing guard in the yard, all dressed as Xiling people. The woman holding Chu Qingyue was the Beiyi princess Sang Zhi.

She was dressed in plain clothes, with her long hair braided with a ribbon and hanging in front of her chest. Even though she was dressed like a peasant girl, her temperament was still outstanding.

Lin Yuejiao had just seen Sang Zhi on the projection and recognized Sang Zhi's identity at a glance.

The other party is not a good person. Chu Qingyue was trapped in Beiyi for half a year and fell into Sang Zhi's hands.

This woman was crazy and cruel. She fell in love with Chu Qingyue, but because Chu Qingyue didn't like her, she tortured Chu Qingyue every day and tied Chu Qingyue to her side like a dog.

The reason why Chu Qingyue came back this time was because Sang Zhi told him that the emperor had wiped out the entire Chu family and killed his family. She also offered to help Chu Qingyue kill the emperor to avenge his family. Only then did Chu Qingyue return to Xiling.

"Ayue, you failed the mission tonight!"

Sang Zhi leaned against Chu Qingyue's back, and her hands, which were around Chu Qingyue's waist, moved upwards. When they touched Chu Qingyue's chest, she was grabbed by Chu Qingyue.

Chu Qingyue pinched her wrist hard, turned back suddenly, and stared at Sang Zhi coldly, "Princess, respect yourself!"

After that, he shook off Sang Zhi, who cried out in pain. She glanced at her slightly red wrist and said resentfully, "You pinched me and hurt me."

"Don't you Xiling men know how to be gentle and considerate to women? Oh... yes, if you knew how to be gentle and considerate to women, you would have submitted to me long ago. How could you let me toy with you and humiliate you like a dog?"

It was clearly a resentful tone and a resentful look, but the words were full of sarcasm.

Chu Qingyue clenched his fists, with murderous intent in his expression.

Sang Zhi saw it but didn't get angry. She took a step forward and stroked Chu Qingyue's chest with her soft, boneless palm.

"I won't bother with you about what happened tonight. Entering the palace to assassinate Emperor Xiling was a life-threatening situation. If they die, then so be it. As long as you come back alive, that's fine. You are my favorite dog. They are not as important as you."

Sang Zhi smiled and tried to lean into Chu Qingyue's arms again, but Chu Qingyue suddenly grabbed her neck with a frighteningly cold look in his eyes.

"This is Xiling, not Beiyi. Put away your despicable behavior. Don't forget the purpose of your coming to Xiling. If you provoke me again, I will kill you!"

"Are you willing to?"

Even though her life was in Chu Qingyue's hands, Sang Zhi smiled charmingly, "If I die, who will help you get revenge? Besides, if you kill me, you can't leave this yard. Everyone outside is my people!"

"Really? Then you try it!" Chu Qingyue was murderous and exerted force on his hands in vain.

A feeling of suffocation enveloped Sangzhi's heart, his face changed, and he could only make hoarse sounds from his mouth and could not speak.

She pulled Chu Qingyue's hand hard, and her sharp nails left several scratches on the back of Chu Qingyue's hand.

She felt like she was dying and her eyes rolled back.

Because the doors and windows were not closed, the Northern Barbarians discovered that their princess was in danger, and quickly rushed into the house, drew their swords on Chu Qingyue, and asked Chu Qingyue to release her.

Lin Yuejiao was not afraid of the trouble and stood in the yard, shouting softly, "Fight, fight quickly!"

If a fight breaks out, the Northern Barbarians will inevitably fall out with Chu Qingyue, and the two sides will definitely go their separate ways, and Chu Qingyue will not be used by the Northern Barbarians.

The Princess of Beiyi was not so kind as to "help" Chu Qingyue kill the emperor. The reason why she lent people to Chu Qingyue was just to use Chu Qingyue to kill Xiao Jiuzhao.

Chu Qingyue had been a royal guard and the commander of the imperial guards. He knew the emperor's weaknesses and the defense situation in the palace best.

So under the leadership of Chu Qingyue, the northern barbarians were able to successfully sneak into the palace and kill the emperor.

As long as the emperor dies and Xiling is in civil strife, Beiyi can take the opportunity to invade Xiling, plunder Xiling's land resources, and take Xiling for themselves. This is the purpose of the Beiyi princess.

Unfortunately, there was no fight and Chu Qingyue released Princess Beiyi, which made Lin Yuejiao quite disappointed.

Chu Qingyue let go of Sangzhi and left, but was surrounded by the Northern Barbarians, all of whom looked ferocious and full of hostility.

Sang Zhi touched his sore throat, looked coldly at Chu Qingyue's back, and said in a low voice: "Let him go!"

They didn't want to let go the Xiling man who almost killed the princess, but they dared not disobey the princess's orders.

The northern barbarians retreated, and Chu Qingyue left resolutely.

A Northern Barbarian couldn't help but say, "Princess, are we going to let him go just like that? Will he tell the Emperor of Xiling about our whereabouts?"

Sang Zhi looked at the figure disappearing into the night and smiled coldly, "He is now a criminal of Xiling, a traitor who is colluding with us. It will not be good for him to betray us. Don't worry, everything is under my control. When he helps us kill the Emperor of Xiling, I will kill him. There is no use keeping a disobedient dog!"

"The princess is wise!"

Everyone praised their princess happily, but they didn't know that there were other people here.

Chu Qingyue wouldn't tell on others, but she would!

"System, tell Xiao Jiuzhao that the Beiyi Princess is hiding here!"

[What about Chu Qingyue? The host doesn't care about him anymore? If the news of Chu Qingyue and Princess Beiyi getting together gets out, he will be convicted of treason.]

"I'll get him out of here, just do what you say!"

Since the host has said so, Tongzi can only do as he is told.

Back at the palace, most of the assassins had been strangled to death, and the rest had fled.

The emperor carried Xu Xiyue back to Changle Palace, summoned Imperial Physician Chen to treat him, and then went to Xuanzheng Hall to deal with the assassin.

Upon hearing the imperial guards report that the assassin was a Northern Barbarian, the emperor was furious and ordered that the escaped Northern Barbarian assassin must be captured.

As soon as he gave the order, a line of glowing small words suddenly appeared in front of him.

'In the Green Willow Lane in the west of the city, Princess Sangzhi of the Northern Barbarians is hiding here, catch her quickly!'

The emperor was stunned. This kind of situation had happened before. The emperor saw it once when the empress dowager wanted to poison Xu Xiyue.

At that time, the emperor asked Eunuch Zhang if he saw any words in the air. Eunuch Zhang replied that there were none, and neither did the other palace servants.

The emperor went to Qingren Palace with doubts at that time. Sure enough, he saw that Xu Xiyue was in danger. Only then did he become convinced that the words that appeared out of nowhere did not deceive him.

So when he saw these words again, he had no doubt at all and immediately ordered the imperial guards to go to Green Willow Lane to capture the Princess of Beiyi.

The emperor didn't know where the words that appeared out of thin air came from, nor did he know why only he could see them. He thought that it was because he was the true dragon emperor, so the gods gave him hints.

The imperial guards were very fast and soon found the hiding place of the Northern Yi princess, catching the Northern Yi people off guard.

"Cover the princess and leave quickly!"

A Beiyi man shouted loudly, led a few people and supported the Beiyi princess as they rushed out the door.

However, the imperial guards were so numerous that they blocked the gate like an iron wall, and they couldn't get out at all.

At that time, Chu Qingyue, who was in the house, was undressing to treat the wound on his back. Hearing the noise outside, he immediately pulled up his clothes, picked up the sword on the table and rushed out.

Lin Yuejiao suddenly appeared in front of the door and stopped him, "You can't go!"

Chu Qingyue frowned, realizing something, and a hint of anger appeared on his face.

"Did you tell Xiao Jiuzhao that the Northern Barbarians were hiding here?"
