The host ruthlessly crushes scum in the small world

The second prince was stunned to see that Jiang Xingkuo was still alive, but he immediately ordered his men to tie him up.

The Second Prince never liked Jiang Xingkuo; to be precise, he disliked all the other princes except for Jiang Xingkuo.

The second prince was the first son of the Empress of Dongsi Kingdom, who was the daughter of the greatest contributor to the emperor's ascension to the throne.

The emperor naturally appeared to be deeply affectionate and righteous, but once he became emperor, he began to be suspicious and paranoid.

In particular, this meritorious official not only openly refuted the emperor's decision in court, but the emperor now suspects that he wanted to control him, which is why he sent his daughter, who is now the empress, into the palace.

So when the emperor felt he had secured the throne, he began to secretly cultivate his own people.

However, the emperor doted on this second prince, and his words implied that the throne would eventually be passed to him.

The second prince, having been fooled, became arrogant and started to act domineeringly, taking advantage of his status. The empress, seeing her son turn out this way, tried her best to stop him.

The Empress wanted the Second Prince to stay by her side and learn etiquette, but it was precisely these actions that made the Second Prince hate the Empress more and more.

That was the emperor's original intention; he wanted to make the empress sad and upset, as if only in this way could he avenge the humiliation he suffered at the hands of her father.

Unexpectedly, the second prince, increasingly indulged by the emperor, pushed the newly pregnant empress down the stairs, causing her to bleed on the spot. By the time the imperial physician arrived, she had already miscarried.

After that, the Empress realized that the Second Prince was already ruined, so she stopped caring about him.

The Empress was originally a very spirited person, but because of her father, she married into the palace and ended up like this. Since then, the Empress has rarely left the palace.

Without the Empress's restraint, the Second Prince became even more arrogant, actually believing that the throne was rightfully his.

Therefore, the second prince decided to secretly do something big: infiltrate the Southern Kingdom and kill the queen.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Jiang Xingkuo. At this moment, the Second Prince couldn't care less about going to Nanli Kingdom and took Jiang Xingkuo away. To prevent Jiang Xingkuo from escaping, the Second Prince directly sent someone to sever Jiang Xingkuo's tendons in his hands and feet.

Unexpectedly, with just this one action, the Second Prince discovered the battle map that Jiang Xingkuo was carrying. Although the Second Prince was arrogant, he could read, so he quickly realized that this was actually the battle map of Nanli Kingdom against Dongsi Kingdom!

The second prince instantly felt that his opportunity had arrived, so he immediately went back to find the emperor of Dongsi Kingdom. The emperor saw him and was overjoyed because this was also his chance to successfully regain all power.

He can succeed as long as he doesn't fail this time.

Unfortunately, the battle plan was fake, and because the Second Prince was too confident and underestimated his enemy, Lin Chuyun dealt with them effortlessly.

Lin Chuyun did not choose to return to Nanli Kingdom, but instead pressed her advantage and eventually arrived directly at the city walls of Dongsi Kingdom. Unexpectedly, the person standing on the city wall was a girl.

"Empress, aren't you afraid I'll take you prisoner and force the Emperor to open the city gates?"

Lin Chuyun looked at the woman who came up to her, Xi Siyi, the queen of Dongsi Kingdom.

Xi Siyi showed no sign of panic; instead, she sat down directly in front of Lin Chuyun.

How can we withdraw our troops?

"Did you come as the Empress? Did the Emperor summon you?"

Lin Chuyun couldn't help but wonder, did she look like someone who could just leave?

"Don't worry, they weren't sent by the late emperor."

This time, Lin Chuyun was completely stunned. The late emperor?

It turned out that right after the second prince left with his army, the emperor thought he would soon regain all his power and began to act recklessly.

Previously, he had been too timid to favor other concubines, but this time he went to one of them almost every night.

In the following days, the emperor chose an even more bizarre method. Whether it was due to the extreme stimulation or something else, he died on his bed.

Lin Chuyun was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this, not knowing what to do now that the emperor was gone.

"I can give you a way."

After discussing it all night, Lin Chuyun decided to withdraw her troops first, because Xi Siyi directly represented Dongsi Kingdom in signing a contract with Nanli.

Lin Chuyun wasn't afraid that Xi Siyi would regret it, since she could easily come back if she found out later that she had been deceived.

Xi Siyi, upon returning to the Eastern Kingdom, looked at her father.

“Father, she has agreed, and I have signed a contract with her.”

Seeing her father nod, Xi Siyi turned to leave.

"Siyi, where are you going?"

“My mission is complete, the emperor is dead, and I, the empress, should no longer be here.”

"You'll be the Empress Dowager soon!"

Xi Siyi looked at her father and said, word by word.

"Father, do you really think I can become Empress Dowager?"

Over the years, the emperor, seeing that he had little power left, had ruined his health by drowning his sorrows in alcohol every day.

There were only a few children. Apart from the eldest prince who died young and the third prince who disappeared, only the second prince had reached adulthood. The other princes had not yet reached adulthood.

As for the Second Prince, Xi Siyi couldn't help but laugh whenever she thought of him.

"Do you think the Second Prince can ascend the throne? But now he's hiding, and he didn't even come when the Emperor died."

Unfortunately, the second prince could not return. After all, in his panicked escape, he abandoned his army and fell off a cliff.

"Father, who can we rely on now?"

"But you are my daughter!"

"Yes! I am your daughter, so you let me enter the palace as a concubine and I did. You told me to be dignified and I did. Just before, you sent me out to exchange terms with the Southern Li Kingdom, and I went! Now you still use my status as your daughter to criticize me?"

"But aren't you still here? I'm your father, you should listen to me!"

Xi Siyi sneered.

"You let me go out knowing there was a chance I wouldn't come back. What if I didn't come back? Would you say it was all her duty, something you should have done?"

Xi Siyi paused for a moment, then continued.

"I'm tired, Father. Please let me go."

Without a moment's hesitation, Xi Siyi left Dongsi Kingdom, while Lin Chuyun immediately returned to Nanli Kingdom.

"What did you say? My elder sister succeeded?!"

Lin Jiayun overheard the maids' discussion and learned that Lin Chuyun was already on her way back.

When Lin Jiayun was all alone, she finally laughed with relief, after all, Lin Chuyun had brought Jiang Xingkuo back with her this time.

"Tell me, why did you run away? Weren't you comfortable staying by my side? Wasn't I good to you?!"
