I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 252 General Election 6

Although Xin Youran's outfit today was a little more formal than usual, Mu Yuan knew her very well. Her clothes were not as complicated as those of other noble ladies, and she moved very freely.

She walked gently towards Mu Yuan and bowed, "May I borrow the Crown Prince's soft sword?"

Mu Yuan was a little confused, but he understood Xin Youran's eye signal, so he raised his hand and took out an object that looked like a bracelet from his sleeve.

After taking it out, I found out that it was a bracelet made of soft sword ring.

He nodded and handed it to Xin Youran.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Seeing Xin Youran winking at him mischievously, Mu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth helplessly. He thought she had such a lively side, which made him feel even more adorable.

Little did she know that this scene was seen by Princess Minghui, who wished she could get rid of this bitch on the spot!

I saw Xin Youran skillfully unfolding the soft sword. It was just a bracelet, but in an instant it turned into a sharp sword.

When the queen heard that Xin Youran was going to dance with a sword, she was immediately delighted.

I wanted to wait for her to take out the sword so that I could have a chance to take it down.

Without special permission, no one entering the palace is allowed to carry any weapon. This rule alone could cost her life!

But who would have thought that she didn't come with a sword, but turned around to borrow a sword from the prince.

How could she forget that this man was very cunning and had failed in his assassination attempts on her several times?

It’s easy for her to enter the palace today, but if she wants to leave this deep palace without dying, she will be skinned alive!

"Miss Xin is really good at fighting!"

"It's already so impressive before it even starts."

The imperial concubine was stunned. Just that one move was enough to show that this young lady's martial arts skills were quite good!

I haven't heard Rui'er mention when the prince had someone he loved...

But she just likes women who know martial arts!

The biggest regret in my life is that I didn’t learn martial arts from my father.

Xin Youran smiled and bowed to the Imperial Concubine, then turned to Princess Minghui.

"I've heard Princess Minghui's guqin playing is truly breathtaking. Since this is your first talent show, why not showcase it together?"

"I wonder what Princess Minghui thinks?"

provocative! A naked provocation!

Everyone looked at Xin Youran and started whispering.

"It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!"

"Princess Minghui was willing to yield, yet she dared to speak so arrogantly. Is she trying to compete with her?"

"Will Princess Minghui accept this?"

"What a joke! I heard that Princess Minghui's piano playing can make passersby cry. How could such a skill scare someone like her who wields swords and guns?"

"Princess Minghui should dampen her arrogance and see what she is capable of."

"Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will probably have no choice but to choose Princess Minghui."

……

Princess Minghui could clearly hear the discussions below.

Especially the last sentence, which further aroused her fighting spirit.

So she looked up at the Queen, and seeing her nod in agreement gave her more confidence.

"It's just hearsay. This princess has loved the guqin since she was a child, and she knows a thing or two about it."

"Since Miss Xin insists on inviting you, I cannot refuse your kindness and will present myself to you all."

Soon, a palace maid brought up Princess Minghui's guqin.

This was the first time the two of them had worked together, but Xin Youran didn't feel any pressure at all. She just had to dance with the sword to the music of Princess Minghui's piano.

Xueying has been practicing sword dance for more than ten years. Her mother taught her since she was a child. She has never missed a day and has mastered it to perfection.

As Princess Minghui's piano music rang out, Xin Youran moved immediately. Her posture was agile and the soft sword in her hand seemed to come alive.

As the music rose and fell, sword shadows fluttered and cold light flashed. The sword energy she swung out was full of fierce momentum, as if to cut through the air!

But her body is so soft as if she has no bones. As she spins and leaps, her clothes flutter in the wind, which is so beautiful!

Just as she was dancing with great concentration, the sound of the piano suddenly changed.

She didn't put away her sword in time, her feet stopped, and she almost fell. Fortunately, she reacted in time, her other foot was in the air, and she kept up the rhythm.

Princess Minghui was deliberately increasing her intensity.

If she didn't respond, it would seem that she didn't know etiquette.

Then the sound of the piano became rapid, and the climax came. Xin Youran leaped up, drawing a graceful arc in the air. The soft sword in his hand flashed with a cold light, just like a meteor passing by.

Right now, where her soft sword fell, the tip of the sword happened to be at Princess Minghui's vital point.

Everyone present held their breath. Even Princess Minghui was so frightened that she subconsciously dodged backwards. The sound of the zither under her hands became chaotic and produced a harsh tone.

Xin Youran turned his wrist, retracted the soft sword in an instant, and jumped back to another place.

Princess Minghui reacted quickly, but the following piano music was obviously chaotic.

Fortunately, there was only a short section left. When the song ended, Xin Youran put away his sword lightly and saluted the audience with a fist.

Afterwards, he turned the soft sword into the shape of a bracelet and returned it to Prince Mu Yuan.

Then there was applause from the crowd.

Looking at Princess Minghui again, her face was pale, perhaps because she was frightened by the sword just now.

Such a delicate princess had never seen such a scene before. The sword could have taken her life by a hair's breadth!

This bitch is really bold.

Leng Yue had returned at some point and was still applauding Xin Youran.

"Where have you been? This is the imperial palace, be careful!"

Xin Youran was still worried. Seeing that she was intact, she put on a smile and didn't take it seriously...

"I've discovered a shocking secret. He Yunshu, the Prime Minister's daughter, is currently having an affair with someone in a fake cave in the back hills of the Imperial Garden!"

"You'll pretend to ask about this person later."

"Someone will tell you."

Xin Youran didn’t know the specific situation, but after hearing Leng Yue’s words, could this also be part of their plan?

The Prime Minister's daughter, He Yunshu, was the marriage that the Imperial Noble Consort had arranged for His Royal Highness Prince Ning through this election. If this were discovered in public, their marriage would definitely be ruined.

Does that mean Leng Yue can be with Xia Hou Rui?

She must do this heroic act of punishing evil and promoting good!

The female official was announcing, "Next, please welcome the third person..."

Xin Youran suddenly stood up and said, "Wait a minute, it seems we missed someone during the first round of court etiquette tests."

"Where is He Yunshu, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
