"A woman should be faithful to her husband. Since I am already the prince's wife, how can I abandon him so easily and leave at will?"

Qiao Xi regained her voice, raised her hand and grasped Ji Yao's knee. A very light sound of bone breaking was heard, and Ji Yao trembled with pain.

Her entire kneecap was crushed to pieces by Qiao Xi without shedding any blood, and Qiao Xi even shook her leg with her foot.

Ji Yao seemed to hear the sound of broken bones shaking inside, and the pain made her whole body twitch.

Qiao Xi's eyes were calm as she continued, "Miss Ji loves the prince, and I also agree to give up the position of principal wife. Why did you poison the prince and use the people to force me like this?

The people of northern Xinjiang have had a difficult time these past few years. You shouldn't do this to deal with me. This will also chill the prince's heart."

After he finished speaking, he pinched Ji Yao's other knee again, and with another effort, the bone shattered into pieces.

Ji Yao was sweating profusely.

He turned his head and stared at Qiao Xi.

Bitch, just wait, I will make you pay double for the pain you suffered today.

Qiao Xi ignored her vicious gaze and wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief to prevent others from noticing her behavior later.

Whispering in her ear, "The man whose leg you broke was my fourth brother Qiao Chengwang.

He is not a savage, but a descendant of the Qiao family who has protected the people and brought peace to them for generations. Your Ji family is also protected by our Qiao family. How dare you humiliate him like this?

Now I will let you experience the feeling of having your legs broken, so bear with it."

Ji Yao's heart was in turmoil.

The savage turned out to be Qiao Xi's brother. Qiao Xi had deliberately lost the jade token that day to test her.

And she said those words, what a cunning and vicious woman.

Ji Yao struggled hard, but was held tightly by Qiao Xi.

She wanted to kick the carriage to attract the attention of people outside, but her kneecaps were crushed and her legs were completely powerless.

What made her even more desperate was that Qiao Xi started to imitate her voice again.

"My father is the governor of Jiangnan, and my maternal grandfather is very wealthy. What qualifications do you, an orphan, have to share a husband with me?

What this girl wants is the prince's exclusive favor. As for those low-class people, they are just stupid. They will run to the prince's palace at the slightest rumor.

But you are right about one thing. The prince has worked hard to resist the barbarians for many years to bring them a good life, but they went to the prince's palace to drive you away. They are really heartless.

But you don't need to worry about this. Once my father's great cause is accomplished, he will help the prince to seek justice for these untouchables."

That arrogant tone was exactly the same as Ji Yao's.

But Qiao Xi's expression remained calm, and she whispered to Ji Yao words that made her even more devastated.

"Do you really think you are Ji Chuan's only child? No, he had an affair with Princess Yong and gave birth to Prince Yong.

You, your mother, and even the Yao family are all pawns paving the way for his illegitimate child.

A few days ago, this concubine and the prince went to the Ji family... It's a pity that you were not there, and you didn't see how disappointed your father was when he found out that your mother was still alive..."

Ji Yao shook her head desperately.

Impossible, Qiao Xi is talking nonsense.

She didn't want to believe what Qiao Xi said. How could her father want her mother to die when he loved her so much?

But, my father's two guards did mention that the house was robbed and that my mother stayed at the Yao family...

Qiao Xi continued, "If you are really his only daughter, why did he remain silent even after Su Heting imprisoned you? Because in his eyes, you are nothing.

In Su Heting's eyes, you are nothing either, so he would rather hide in Yincheng. He thinks you are disgusting.

Ji Yao, people will be punished for their evil deeds sooner or later. The reason you are in this situation today is because you have a vicious mind.

Your parents and grandparents will not have a good death either. If Heaven doesn't punish you, I, Qiao Xi, will be the executioner and send you all to hell."

The alleyway that was blocked by the carriage was now crowded with people. Some were attracted by Ji Yao's loud shout, and some were civilians disguised as spies.

Eavesdropping was shameful, and since there was a hidden signal, everyone tacitly kept silent, but many people's faces looked very ugly.

They were used by Ji Yao and were called pariahs and idiots by her.

After a while, Qiao Xi sounded angry again, "I am the orphan of a meritorious official, and a princess personally appointed by the court. You are shamelessly leading the people to drive me away.

If Ji Chuan develops rebellious intentions and disregards the imperial power, that is your business in southern Xinjiang.

Don't drag northern Xinjiang into this and try to stir up conflict between southern Xinjiang and the imperial court.

The prince was tolerant of you before, not because he was afraid of you, but because he didn't want Dayou to be in internal strife and the people to suffer from war again.

I want you to immediately remove those who spread the rumors and hand over the prince's antidote. I will persuade the prince to let bygones be bygones.

Otherwise, my northern Xinjiang and your southern Xinjiang will be irreconcilable."

Then came Ji Yao's sinister and arrogant voice, "I don't have the time to mess with you.

Actually, the matter is very simple. As long as you die, I will give the prince the antidote and put an end to those rumors."

"you?"

Ji Yao laughed, "Qiao Xi, do you feel weak all over? That's right, I never thought of letting you live.

If I held your hand and stabbed the hairpin into your heart, would people believe that you chose to commit suicide because you couldn't bear the rumors?"

The guard standing outside the carriage changed his expression when he heard this. Lu Jiang hurriedly said, "The princess is in danger. Protect her."

After saying this, he was about to jump onto the carriage, and while doing so he unblocked the maid's acupoints.

The maidservant was so anxious when she heard what Ji Yao said and saw the shadowy figure coming through the gap opposite the carriage.

I also cursed Ji Yao in my heart.

What a stupid brain you have. Why are you talking so much outside?

Now that he was free, he hurriedly climbed onto the carriage and told Ji Yao everything, hoping to ask her to make amends.

But before she could take a step, she heard a bang, and both Ji Yao and Qiao Xi fell out of the carriage.

The fall was in the direction where the people were watching. It must be that Qiao Xi had used force to break the wall of the carriage.

She remembered Ji Yao saying that Qiao Xi had some skills, but she didn't expect that he still had such great strength even after being drugged.

But this was not fatal. The fatal thing was that the hairpin in Ji Yao's hand was piercing into Qiao Xi's body.

Qiao Xi was pinned to the ground by Ji Yao.

"Miss."

The maid shouted, she wanted to stop Ji Yao.

This isn't the right time to kill Qiao Xi, as everyone is watching.

But Ji Yao was trapped in the carriage by Qiao Xi. She was very shocked by the scene she had performed, and coupled with the pain in her knees, she had already lost her mind.

After falling out of the carriage, he became crazy as soon as he was free. He stabbed the hairpin into Qiao Xi's body again and said hysterically, "I will kill you, I will kill you..."

"Evil woman, don't hurt the princess."

Lu Jiang shouted angrily and pulled Ji Yao away.

Ji Yao's legs were disabled, but Lu Jiang was holding her by the neck, so ordinary people couldn't tell.

The two Jichuan guards who rushed over after hearing the news saw it clearly and said, "Put down my young lady."

Ji Chuan has always established a good father persona, and even the guard beside him, no one knows that he only treats Ji Yao as a pawn.

Now that he saw his young lady being captured by Lu Jiang, who seemed to be planning to end her life, he dared not delay any longer.

The guards from the King's Palace of Xinjiang who had been traveling with Ji Yao hurriedly helped Qiao Xi up and handed her over to the care of a spy who was pretending to be an ordinary citizen.

Then he and Lu Jiang fought with the two guards of the Ji family.

Seeing that they could not get close to Lu Jiang to save Ji Yao, the two guards of the Ji family thought of capturing Qiao Xi, who was paralyzed by Chinese medicine, and using her as a hostage in exchange for Ji Yao.

Little did they know that their action made Ji Chuan speechless.

Lu Jiang shouted, "You despicable Ji Chuan, you tried to win over the prince to join you in the rebellion but failed, so you are trying to force your daughter on the prince.

The prince looked down on her, so you poisoned him and then spread rumors about the princess in an attempt to ruin her so that your daughter could take advantage of the situation.

Now that the plan has failed, they even dare to assassinate him in the street. This is simply too much of an insult to the King of Jiangbei Palace."

"You're talking nonsense..."

The maid wanted to quibble, but somehow she stumbled and bumped directly into the knife of the Ji family guard and died.

The guards of the Ji family did not care about the life or death of a maid, they cared about Ji Yao's life, but this was right next to the palace, and more and more guards from the palace rushed over after hearing the news.

When Changsheng learned that Qiao Xi was injured, he raised his sword with bloodshot eyes and attacked. After a fight, he stomped on one of their heads.

He looked at Ji Yao in Lu Jiang's hand. Hearing that this woman had hurt his sister, he stabbed Ji Yao with the sword.

It’s just that Su Heting is faster than him.

Ji Yao, who was already in excruciating pain, looked at the bloody heart on the ground and Su Heting's cold eyes in disbelief.

Before she died, she suddenly remembered that when they first met, she wanted to kill Qiao Xi and the threats Qiao Xi made to her.

She said, "If you do that again, the dagger will gouge out your heart."

What Qiao Xi didn't do, Su Heting did for her.

It turned out that Su Heting even remembered what Qiao Xi said.

It turned out that what Qiao Xi said was true. Su Heting was just acting with her. What he really cared about was Qiao Xi...

She's just a joke...
