I am favored by the tyrant, so what if I am vicious?

Qingying didn't dare to look into Zhou Lingge's eyes again, her heart was filled with fear.

She turned and grabbed Han Mubai's robe, begging for mercy in a hoarse voice: "Master Han, please save this slave... Everything this slave did was for your own good."

"I am the only one who is sincere to you, and I am the only one who loves you the most. Have you forgotten that you once saved me? I accidentally fell into the lake that time, and if it weren't for Master Han who saved me, I would have died long ago."

"Master Han, you should have some affection for me, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't risk your life to save me, and you wouldn't be so kind, gentle, and generous to me on a daily basis."

Her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked up at Han Mubai pitifully.

She placed her last bit of hope on Han Mubai.

This man has a gentle temperament and noble character. He will definitely not condone Zhou Lingge's disregard for human life and killing innocent people.

She believed that Mr. Han must like her a little and would definitely help her and save her from the dire situation.

Han Mubai's usually gentle eyes and brows were now covered with a layer of frost.

He lowered his eyes and stared at Qingying, who was grabbing his robe as if it were a life-saving straw and crying so pitifully.

Although his voice was still clear and gentle, his words were extremely cold: "I was gentle and generous to you before, and I rescued you from the lake. All this was because of Ge'er. You are the person she trusts the most and is closest to her, so naturally I love you and treat you better. Who knew that you would mistakenly believe that I have feelings for you? Oh, how ridiculous!"

"Are you worthy? You betrayed Ge'er and broke her trust... You lured her into the palace and trapped her within the walls of the harem..."

Thinking of this, murderous intent flashed in Han Mubai's eyes.

If it weren’t for Qingying...how could Ge’er have become Qin Feiling’s concubine?

If it weren't for Qingying, Ge'er wouldn't have had her limbs chopped off by Zhou Shiya in her previous life, turned into a human pig, and lived a life neither human nor ghost!

All the tragedies in their previous lives were caused by Qingying...

The overwhelming hatred was boiling in his body, almost burning him to ashes.

He wished he could strangle Qingying to death right now to vent his hatred.

Qingying met Han Mubai's gaze, and her eyes were full of panic.

She couldn't help but let go of his robe and stumbled back: "Master Han, you...why are you looking at me like that?"

"I love you... Everything I did was for your own good. It was Zhou Lingge... who fell in love with someone else, was greedy for fame and fortune, and betrayed your sincerity, Master Han. I simply wanted to vent your anger and seek justice for you..."

Han Mubai couldn't bear it any longer. He squatted down and suddenly grabbed Qingying's neck with his big and broad hands.

There was no warmth in his eyes when he looked at Qingying, as if he was looking at a dead person.

"Who are you to me? Is it your turn to seek justice for me?"

"How dare you covet me and want to be my woman?"

"If it weren't for your cleverness, I wouldn't have lost my beloved... You've repeatedly brought disaster upon her, and she's shown you extraordinary kindness by refraining from killing you until now. But you showed no appreciation for her... You even dared to insult her and conspire with others to frame her."

"Qingying...you chose your own path, you can't blame anyone else. If Ge'er didn't kill you, I would have killed you too to help her get rid of this scourge you've caused."

As he spoke, he increased the strength of his palm little by little.

Qingying's breath was robbed in an instant.

Her eyes were filled with fear, and she looked at Han Mubai in disbelief as he tried to strangle her.

"Um... no, don't."

She struggled desperately, her face full of despair.

How could this be?

I thought Han Mubai was kind and gentle, and wouldn't condone Zhou Lingge's evil deeds. He would definitely save her! She still had a chance to become his woman!

But Han Mubai loved Zhou Lingge so much that he actually helped Zhou Lingge to do evil.

She knew very well that she had reached a dead end.

No one could save her.

She quickly looked at Zhou Lingge, "I...I'll tell you, I confessed everything. Don't...don't kill me."

Zhou Lingge remained unmoved. She held a velvet round fan and fanned it gently... Her eyes were as bright and dazzling as glass.

Her eyes were filled with smiles!

Watching with interest the scene where Han Mubai was about to strangle Qingying to death!

Qingying cried and struggled... She could feel her life slowly slipping away, and gradually she lost the strength to struggle... Her body even went limp.

Just when Qingying was about to die, Zhou Lingge finally spoke lazily.

"Amu..."

Han Mubai suddenly let go of his hand and shook Qingying off fiercely.

He took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiped his palms.

Qingying escaped the disaster, she lay on the ground coughing and gasping.

She didn't dare to provoke Zhou Lingge again. After she recovered some strength, she said in fear and trepidation.

"Yes...it's Zhang Da Ying and Concubine Sun."

"Zhang promised to find this servant secretly. She said... her cousin from her mother's family has some connections with the Han family. If I can do something for them, they can send me to the Han family and serve Mr. Han."

"She also said that His Majesty, for the sake of Grand Tutor Han, would definitely not execute Young Master Han. At most, he would be imprisoned for a few years. Then... she would send someone to escort me out of the palace, and I would be able to go to Young Master Han, ask about his well-being, and take advantage of his opportunity. Then... becoming Young Master Han's concubine would be a piece of cake..."

Zhou Lingge sneered. Qingying was a chess piece that would attract all kinds of flies if it was put out in the open.

She really couldn't understand how Zhang Da Ying and Sun Guiren knew that Qingying liked Han Mubai?

Or is it that Zhou Shiya is secretly planning this?

No one knows her relationship with Han Mubai and Qingying's thoughts better than Zhou Shiya.

If she said that Zhou Shiya had no involvement in these things, she would never believe it!

But this time Zhou Shiya learned her lesson. Instead of taking action herself, she pushed out Zhang Da Ying and Sun Guiren, two minions?

The palace maid who led Han Mubai to the side hall was bribed by Zhang Da Ying... The earrings in the palace maid's hand were also given by Zhang Da Ying.

So she and Han Mubai took advantage of the situation, knocked Zhang Da Ying unconscious, and used the same method against her, forcing her to have an affair with a guard in a side hall.

Now another noble lady Sun has been brought out.

What a lot of fun!

I wonder who else is behind this Concubine Sun?

Zhou Lingge stared at Qingying closely and continued to ask word by word.

"How do you know there's a noble lady named Sun?"

Qingying was very honest now, answering almost every question: "Although Concubine Sun didn't show up from beginning to end, I saw Zhang Ying secretly leave the palace banquet with Concubine Sun at tonight's palace banquet."

"Later... not long after, His Majesty went to the side hall. I suspect that Concubine Sun must have been involved, but she has been hiding behind the scenes, allowing Zhang to lead the charge..."
