The Prince Consort's Beloved

Sima Nanchong did not have a triumphant smile on his face. Instead, his tone was somewhat self-righteous and unconvincing: "If I don't do this, how can I be sure of killing you?"

He seemed to be making excuses for himself, feeling a little guilty but pretending to be tough as he said, "Since ancient times, all is fair in war."

Xiao Luobai frowned, turned around and shouted to the people fighting around him: "Be careful, their swords are poisoned!"

Several people were shocked when they heard this, but Kunpeng didn't care at all. If he took a look, he would find that the blood on his wound had turned black.

Kunpeng had only one goal in mind, to kill Ye San. He mobilized all his internal strength to deal with Ye San. Because his energy was so focused and his goal was so clear, even though he was the first person to be injured, he did not notice anything unusual, and his sword power was not affected at all.

In the green plum garden, sword lights shot up into the sky.

Jinglei was young and gradually lost to his opponent. Jinghong killed two soldiers around him with one sword and rushed towards Jinglei to protect him.

Jing Lei shouted: "Brother, protect the master."

Jinghong dealt with another enemy nearby. He leaned on Jinglei's back and said, "Let's go together."

Jing Lei responded, and the two of them moved quickly, either attacking or defending. Their swords drew arcs in the air and they moved towards Xiao Luobai without stopping.

Qingzhou, who was not far away, suddenly glanced at Helena who was fighting on the side. His pupils dilated slightly, and he flew over quickly, stabbing the person who attacked Helena from behind with a sword.

Helena glanced at the tip of the sword almost close to her back and the person holding the sword lying on the ground. She raised her head and looked at Qingzhou in surprise.

Qingzhou pursed his lips, put his arms around Helena's slender waist, and flew towards the gate of the princess's mansion with her in his arms.

Helena said urgently: "What are you doing!"

Qingzhou said: "Let's go back to where you should go."

Helena tried to pry his hands from her waist and said, "Let go, my brother is still in there."

As she spoke, she suddenly attacked Qingzhou, and Qingzhou reflexively let go.

Helena said anxiously: "Save my brother."

After she finished speaking, she quickly flew back to where she came from. Qingzhou caught up with her and clamped her shoulders with one hand: "It's useless for you to go back. Don't you have people in Shangjing City? Go and get help!"

Helena hesitated: "My people are not in the city, it's too late."

Qing Zhou said: "If you don't go and call for help, we won't be able to escape. If you move faster, we still have a chance of survival."

Helena bit her lower lip hard, looking conflicted.

Qing Zhou said hurriedly: "I am good at Qinggong. Once I find an opportunity, I will rescue the Prince Consort and meet him at Dabei Zen Temple."

This was what Xiao Luobai had discussed this morning when he gathered them together. He said that there might be some unexpected events today, but he didn't know the details yet. If they were separated, they would reunite at the Great Compassion Temple. Therefore, Kunpeng had been polishing his sword in preparation today.

In fact, Xiao Luobai originally planned to bring Li Yuanrou to discuss the matter together, but Li Yuanrou woke up in the middle of the night and fell asleep again. He couldn't bear to wake her up and wanted her to sleep a little longer, so he only summoned a few other people to tell them his guesses and made some temporary instructions.

Helena stared at Qingzhou with burning eyes, and she made a decision in just a moment: "Remember what you said, you must protect my brother."

Qingzhou nodded, and Helena left quickly. Now there was no one guarding the gate of the princess's mansion, so Helena left smoothly.

The boat flew towards the green plum garden. He sighed in his heart, it’s better to go, it’s better to go. He, Pei Qingzhou, was afraid that he would die here today.

He couldn't help but recall a bright and generous smile in his mind. That person smiled and coaxed him: "Sister will not abandon you. She will definitely wait for you to come back and leave together."

Qingzhou's eyes felt a little sore. Sister, I may not be able to go back. Will you regret letting me make this trip to Princess Shanyang's mansion? Will you miss me after I die?

You shouldn't miss it too much. You have He Wenzheng, Li Youan, Chengfeng Luoxing and others. The "sister" I call you is a stolen title. I never dare to call you like that openly. I'm just an insignificant person with no relatives or friends.

His eyes suddenly became determined. There were people he cared about in Qingmei Garden. Xiao Luobai was his friend, Kunpeng was half his master, Chongming and Bifang had also given him guidance.

The green plum garden was in a mess at this time, with tiles fallen off the roof, branches and leaves of large trees scattered all over the ground, and corpses and bloodstains everywhere on the ground.

Xiao Luobai frowned. This was where he and Li Yuanrou lived. The smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger. Although he was leaving, this scene still made him feel uncomfortable. The bloodstains on the ground were too glaring. If his Rouer was present, she would definitely be scared.

He took another quick glance at the broken swing, and suddenly changed the momentum of his sword, intending to lead Sima Nan out of the yard.

Jing Lei and Jing Hong followed Xiao Luobai's movements and left the Qingmei Garden together.

Chongming and Bifang had originally held back Ye Liu, but as a group of people came in later, the two separated.

Kunpeng and Ye San were fighting fiercely. Whenever he thought of the lustful look in Ye San's eyes when he looked at Qingluan, he became furious and wished he could kill Ye San as soon as possible. Therefore, every move he made was extremely ruthless, only attacking and not defending.

Now Kunpeng has several wounds of varying sizes on his body, and Ye San is not much better than him. He tried to retreat many times, but Kunpeng kept chasing him, and it seemed that he would not stop until he killed him. Even though Kunpeng was poisoned, his offensive did not diminish at all.

Ye San's heart was beating fast. Although his martial arts was the best among the Yeying Guards, Kunpeng was no worse than him. In addition, Kunpeng's desperate fighting style meant that both of them would suffer losses in the end. If one of them didn't die today, the battle would not end.

Ye San was frightened, but he had nowhere to retreat.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "You are really a lunatic."

Kunpeng stared at him with bloodshot eyes and didn't waste any words with him. When he thought that this man wanted to bully Qingluan, the blood in his body began to boil. He made a sharp sword move and stabbed straight at Ye San.

…………

At this time, in the study of Prince Yun’s Mansion.

Prince Yun stood beside the table, on which were piled several sheets of rice paper, each with the word "Jing" written on it.

He picked up the pen again and wrote the left half of the word "qing". Then he dipped the pen in the ink in the inkstone and picked it up again, but he did not write again.

His hands began to tremble slightly. The more he tried to calm down, the more he couldn't. Suddenly, a drop of ink fell and landed next to the word "qing".

Prince Yun slowly put down his pen and asked Ye San to take the imperial edict. Since Li Yuanqi wanted to drag him into this, no one would be able to get away with it.

Li Yuanqi gave him a fatal poison and asked his men to poison their weapons in case Xiao Luobai managed to escape death.

He replaced the poison with one that had an antidote.

But even if he did so, Rou'er would still hate him. Although there were Li Yuanqi's people among that group of people, they were all his people on the surface.
