The princess only wants to survive, and the cold-faced king of hell begs for mercy

When Yun Shang walked out of the warm bedroom, the cold wind blew in her face like a sharp whip, causing her to shrink her neck involuntarily.

She couldn't help but sigh at the unpredictable weather. One moment she was immersed in the embrace of warmth, and the next moment she had to face the invasion of severe cold.

Outside Jing'an Garden, Lin Zhiyi, wearing thin clothes, kept shivering in the cold wind.

Her thin body was swaying like a candle in the wind, but even so, she still stood there stubbornly and refused to leave.

She was seen shoving and jostling the guards at the gate, all the while shouting, "You bunch of damned slaves, get out of my way! I need to see the princess. I have something extremely important to report to her!"

Faced with Lin Zhiyi's shouting, the guards seemed unmoved.

Their faces were stern, and their voices were stiff. "Concubine Lin, please forgive us for not obeying your order. The prince has expressly forbidden you from approaching Jing'an Garden. Please leave this place immediately."

Hearing the guards' cold and heartless words, Lin Zhiyi felt a surge of despair in his heart.

But she didn't give up. Instead, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Lin Zhiwei, come out right now! If you delay any longer, Zhuo Fang's life will be in danger!"

Yun Shang happened to walk to the gate of the courtyard at this time. She was wearing a rabbit fur cloak that was as white as snow and as soft as silk. She stood there gracefully, like a plum blossom blooming in the cold winter, noble and pure.

"Zhuo Fang actually dared to collude with 073 and is now facing capital punishment. This matter should be a strictly confidential matter guarded by the Time Traveler Management Department. How did you learn this information?"

Yun Shang's cold gaze fell directly on Lin Zhiyi, as if she could see through her appearance to the secrets hidden deep in her heart.

Seeing Yun Shang appear, Lin Zhiyi, who was struggling with the guards, stopped instantly.

She took a few steps back, stood steadily, then slowly and methodically straightened her slightly messy sleeves, then slightly raised her delicate face and put on an arrogant and overbearing attitude.

"Hmph! I'm a time traveler from the Star Pavilion, so naturally I have my own unique way of obtaining information. This matter is just a piece of cake for me." Lin Zhiyi opened her red lips slightly and said in a matter-of-fact tone.

After hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in her eyes. She turned her head to glance at the self-important Lin Zhiyi in front of her and asked coldly, "So, does that mean you have a close relationship with that Zhuo Fang?"

Facing Yun Shang's questioning, Lin Zhiyi showed no sign of panic. Instead, he confidently replied, "We can't say we're familiar with each other, but as fellow travelers, we should support and help each other. I will definitely rescue every traveler in trouble. After all, we've all traveled through time and space, and the mutual support and solidarity we share is something an outsider like you can't understand."

Yun Shang's lips curled up slightly, and she let out a crisp, slightly sarcastic laugh. "Haha, it's true. This princess really doesn't understand the deep love or lingering affair that exists between you two. But what really puzzles me is why you think I will definitely help rescue that person named Zhuo Fang?"

Lin Zhiyi's eyes widened as he stared at Yun Shang intently. He hurriedly said, "The people from Xingchen Pavilion have already told me everything about what you did on Mount Qi!"

"Moreover, Zhuo Fang has been through hardships with you and shared joys and sorrows with you. Could it be that you would really just watch him die without helping him? I don't believe you would be so heartless!" Lin Zhiyi's eyes were firm, as if he was completely sure of his judgment.

However, facing Lin Zhiyi's aggressive questioning, Yun Shang just stared at her quietly. Time passed minute by minute, and after a long while, Yun Shang still said nothing.

Just when Lin Zhiyi was beginning to lose her patience, Yun Shang suddenly smiled, as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring.

Then she turned around lightly and walked slowly into the yard with graceful steps.

Only a few cold words lingered in the air: "Well, then, just wait and see. Zhuo Fang is just a small subordinate of the prince. If he dares to be disloyal to the prince, then don't bother with him. Just kill him and be done with it. What does this have to do with me?"

After hearing these words, Lin Zhiyi was dumbfounded. She had never expected that Yun Shang could be so cold-blooded and indifferent.

Her confident expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by anxiety and panic.

If Yun Shang remains unmoved, then won’t all the carefully planned plans that follow be ruined?

What a good thing!

Just when Lin Zhiyi was anxious and at a loss, suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the gate of the palace.

A guard rushed in in a panic, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Oh no! The prince has been assassinated!"

This sudden news was like a bolt from the blue, instantly plunging the entire palace into chaos and panic.

When Yun Shang heard this shocking cry, her body trembled violently and she turned around quickly.

And at the moment she turned around, her eyes happened to meet Lin Zhiyi's.

She clearly saw an almost crazy and smug smile on Lin Zhiyi's beautiful face.

That smile seemed to be announcing to her that the conspiracy had succeeded, full of calculation and malice.

Yun Shang's heart instantly turned cold, and a chill surged from the bottom of her heart and quickly spread throughout her body.

It seemed like she had no choice but to fall into today's chain of schemes.

Yun Shang, draped in a gorgeous cloak, walked gracefully out of the palace. Her beautiful face was now as cold as frost, and she was followed closely by several well-trained guards.

The servant who had been waiting for a long time quickly came forward and respectfully led over a beautifully decorated carriage.

Yun Shang stepped lightly onto the step of the carriage. At this moment, she suddenly turned her head and her eyes shot like arrows towards Lin Zhiyi, who was standing at the door with a hypocritical expression on her face.

Yun Shang's eyes were filled with coldness and warning. She opened her red lips slightly and said in a cold voice, "Lin Zhiyi, if the prince makes any mistake, I will never forgive you!"
