Chapter 35: Flying out of the Imperial Palace
Translator: Paperplane
The people of Beiming left one after the other.
Liu Rushuang walked over to Qing’Er who gaped in shock for a long time ago. Then, in a flat voice, she said, “Qing’Er, let’s go too!”
Qing’Er looked toward Liu Rushuang with a bright smile and earnestly replied, “Young Miss… actually, I think it wouldn’t be too bad if you married the Emperor of Beiming.”
Liu Rushuang grinned, turned, and walked out.
She thought about what Han Moze said, ‘unless the person is dead’, and silently twitched the corner of her mouth.
He was truly an unreasonable and domineering man! But, he did have enough power to go up against the Blood Feast!
What harm will it do if she married him? Besides, it’d be even better for her to completely ignore him!
One of these days, he’ll let her go!
Then, she glanced over at the imperial palace of Nanli. Liu Rushuang couldn’t help but break into a sinister smile at the thought of how it would look after it’s destroyed.
Qing’Er scanned the faces of people around her still in astonishment, then followed behind Liu Rushuang out with a dazzling smile.
Ouyang Xiu saw Liu Rushuang take big strides out, and finally snapped to his senses. “Guards! Capture Princess Changping alive!” He immediately commanded with a booming voice.
When the guards heard this, they attacked simultaneously with hopes of grabbing Liu Rushuang.
Liu Rushuang smiled eerily, and waved her long sleeves like a tornado. In an instant, the army of guards fell to the ground and coughed up blood.
“Outrageous, Princess Changping! guards in black ! Hurry and capture her!” Exclaimed Ouyang Xiu impatiently with an appalled look in his eyes.
Liu Rushuang looked at the guards in black flying all around, and her eyes turned as deep as the ocean.
She carried Qing’Er and left the imperial palace with a chilling speech. “I cannot stay in the imperial palace. I’ll be leaving now. You can collect me at the Minister’s mansion tomorrow morning.”
The great hall erupted once more at Princess Changping’s martial arts skills.
This so-called Princess Changping… was no ordinary person!
Ouyang Yaoyi stared at Liu Rushuang who used her qinggong to leave. She looked shocked, angry, and full of hatred.
Why was this fool so overpowered?! Her gaze instantly looked fierce and somber. She wasn’t going to let her off so easily!
Ouyang Xiu continued to watch Liu Rushuang with indescribable astonishment in his heart.
“Your majesty, Princess Changping is just a woman. How great could her martial arts really be? Just send people to assassinate her tonight!” Although the Empress spoke quietly, her every word carried a murderous intent and there was a ruthless glint in her eyes.
In an instant, a bright light flashed across Ouyang Xiu’s cold eyes. Then, with pure confidence, he coldly said, “You’re right.”
Thereafter, he sent people to secretly follow Liu Rushuang.
The imperial consort was the last person to snap out of shock. She shot a cruel glance at the emperor and empress and spoke with a sweet yet chilling voice. “Ladies like her who marry into Beiming will be no use to our country at all. In fact, it’ll probably have an adverse effect.”
All of a sudden, the emperor and empress’ hands clenched even tighter, and were even more determined to kill Liu Rushuang.
Ouyang Yaoyi glanced up at her own parents, and smirked coldly. The cold murderous aura in her eyes shot sharp daggers.
Liu Rushuang, did you think that you would win? Who knows what will happen until the very day she marries the Emperor of Beiming.
“All state officials, today’s banquet ends here. You may all leave,” announced Ouyang Xiu in a deeply cold voice. Then, he turned to the direction Liu Rushuand left with dark eyes that revealed his murderous desire.
In the great hall, the state officials and their family members heard what Ouyang Xiu said and turned to leave with terrified looks on their faces. They didn’t gather themselves for a very a long time after what happened.
Liu Rushuang really did conceal her true self!
In the future, one mustn’t easily believe rumours ever again!
…
In the evening, hordes of people dressed in black flew out of the Nanli imperial palace.
They had just one objective – to eliminate Liu Rushuang by any means!
