Chapter 1419: The Death of Xiao Jingyu
In the general's manor, Jiang Zhennan frowned and asked," Yue 'er, why did you agree?" He was referring to Xiao Jingyu marrying him as his wife.
If it weren't for Yue 'Er stopping him, he would have rejected her on the spot!
Lin Yuelan sneered and said," Ever since you regained your looks, women who have designs on you have come one after another. In the beginning, there was Zhou Wenya, Yuwen Ling, and then there was Xiao Jingyu. Although Yuwen Ling's fate was her own fault, it did not seem to serve as a warning. Therefore, I could only use Xiao Jingyu, this beauty, as another warning!"
At this point, she sized up Jiang Zhennan from head to toe with her sharp eyes. Then, she said with some annoyance," If I had known that you would attract so many girls so easily after you recovered your appearance and took off your mask, I wouldn't have treated your scar and wouldn't have let you take off your mask!" She had to chase away so many women already.
Jiang Zhennan immediately felt that it was funny and said," Then I'll put the mask back!"
Lin Yuelan frowned and waved her hand." Forget it. Anyway, everyone already knows your appearance. Even if you wear a mask, you won't look ugly. Instead, it will add a sense of mystery and charm, and it will be more likely to attract women."
Alright, since Yue 'er said there was no need to wear it, then there was no need to wear it.
But soon, Jiang Zhennan seemed to have thought of something.
"Yue 'er, His Majesty has already issued a decree to make Xiao Jingyu my wife. If we don't resolve this..." As long as the engagement was not broken off, he, Jiang Zhennan, would have Xiao Jingyu as his wife for the rest of his life.
Thinking of this, he felt disgusted.
Jiang Zhennan was still a little puzzled.
If the marriage were not resolved, Xiao Jingyu would be his legitimate wife. It was great damage to her position as his official wife.
He was afraid that if this continued, his Yue 'er would mind and then become disgusted, causing the two of them to be separated.
No, I must resolve this!
Jiang Zhennan was very unyielding this time.
He couldn't risk their relationship.
Therefore, he had to cut off the risk when it sprouted.
At the thought of this, Jiang Zhennan grabbed Lin Yuelan's hand excitedly and said," No, Yue 'er, the matter of Xiao Jingyu being my wife must be resolved. Otherwise, I'll go straight to the posthouse and kill that princess."
Lin Yuelan looked at the agitated Jiang Zhennan and immediately comforted him," Brother Nan, don't be agitated. Listen to me. This Xiao Jingyu won't become your wife. Trust me, okay?"
Around Lin Yuelan, Jiang Zhennan had always felt that he, the dignified Defender General, was a weakling.
His martial arts weren't as strong as Yue 'er's, his brain wasn't as smart as Yue' er's, and he was always protected by Yue 'er. Other than staying by her side, he seemed to be useless.
Even so, Yue 'er was the only woman he had been interested in for the past twenty-five years. He could not retreat just because of Yue' er's excellence.
When Jiang Zhennan heard Lin Yuelan, he could only nod helplessly." Alright!"
Then, he asked curiously," I wonder what Yue 'er's plan is. What about the Black Clouds Kingdom?"
Lin Yuelan looked at Jiang Zhennan and blinked. She smiled mysteriously and said," I won't tell you yet. Just wait and see. It was only the first day. There were still two days left. After three days, they would definitely take the initiative to break off the engagement!"
She wanted to wait for the Black Clouds Kingdom to take the initiative to break off the engagement before killing Xiao Jingyu.
Thinking of this, she touched Little Green on her wrist.
Just now, she asked Little Green to teach Xiao Jingyu and the others a lesson.
Although she didn't think that this action could dispel Xiao Jingrui's plan to let Xiao Jingyu marry Brother Nan, at least it would cause some internal chaos.
..
Xiao Jingrui sat in his room, one hand constantly rubbing the ring on the thumb of the other hand. He frowned, apparently deep in thought.
This trip to Longyan Country had given him too many surprises. Lin Yuelan's appearance had disrupted his plans one after another.
He was thinking about using Xiao Jingyu to test Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan. Was this the right move?
Just in case, he should bring out that person!
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Jingrui said to his guard," Go and bring the person over to me!"
"Yes, sir!" The guard replied respectfully.
About fifteen minutes later, the guard appeared in front of Xiao Jingrui again. However, at this moment, there was another person on his shoulder. Oh, to be exact, it was a woman.
The guard put down the woman and reported respectfully," Your Highness, I've brought her here!"
The woman was dressed in white and wore a veil, revealing only her eyes. However, just by looking at her eyes, one could tell that the face under the veil was definitely a peerless beauty.
The woman was not angry at the guard's treatment.
When she saw Xiao Jingrui, she took two steps forward and said gently to him," Greetings, Young Master!"Her voice was gentle and affectionate, but it was also charming as if it could immerse people in it all of a sudden.
If there were outsiders present, they would have realized that this person's voice was no different from Princess Linglong's.
In front of such stunning beauty, Xiao Jingrui's expression didn't change. He just looked the woman up and down and said," You have a chance to take revenge!"
When the woman heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, but her eyes were full of hatred and resentment. She said to Xiao Jingrui with excitement," As long as I can take revenge, just tell me if you need anything. I will do anything, even if I have to die!"
Xiao Jingrui didn't move but said to her with a fierce look, "Remember, you can't afford the price of betraying me!"
The woman was shocked, and fear flashed in her eyes. Then, she said sincerely," Don't worry, Young Master. I will never betray you!"
Xiao Jingrui didn't nod or shake his head. He just said to the guard," Arrange for her to rest!"
Of course, this was a secret.
The guard understood.
The guard then stepped forward and lifted her up on his shoulder. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared!
After that, Xiao Jingrui, who was left behind, rubbed the green ring on his thumb again. His eyes narrowed, and his brows furrowed slightly as if he was deep in thought.
After Xiao Jingyu's throat was choked by a small melon seed, she looked as if she had lost her spirit and was extremely dispirited. It was as if she was waiting to accept death at any time, but her eyes were filled with unwillingness.
"Princess, why don't you eat something? You haven't eaten anything for almost two days. If this continues, how can you stand it?"The servant girl held a bowl of porridge and said," This is the porridge that I personally cooked in the kitchen. It's very soft and sticky, so it definitely won't…" She choked.
She didn't dare to say the last three words out loud for fear of provoking her master.
"Pa!"
Xiao Jingyu, who was in a highly tense and defensive state, erupted. The slightest movement caused her to stand up in fear.
"Are you unwilling to accept it until you choke this princess to death?"Xiao Jingyu was so angry and terrified that she roared like a madman," Hmph, let me tell you, even if I choke to death, all of you dog slaves who serve me must be buried with me!"
When the servant girl heard this, she immediately put down her hand that was covering her face and kowtowed in horror." Princess, please calm down. Princess, please calm down. This servant did not think that way. I definitely did not think that way, Princess!"
Then, she said aggrievedly," But, Princess, you haven't eaten for almost two days. If you don't eat something soon, how can your body take it? So, this servant thought of making something soft. I personally cooked some porridge, thinking that Princess could eat something to fill her stomach, Princess!"
However, Xiao Jingyu's entire body was in a tense state. She could not withstand the slightest movement. She was afraid that if she were not careful, she would choke to death, fall to her death, or die inexplicably.
Xiao Jingyu cursed," Dog slave, who asked you to do this? Get lost, get lost, get lost!"
The servant girl looked at the princess in such a state of loss of composure. No matter what she said or did, it would be useless. Perhaps the princess would really kill her in her anger.
Soon, the servant girl left Xiao Jingyu's room.
Once outside the room, she said to the minister standing in front of the door," Lord Ping, the princess doesn't want to eat!"
Lord Ping frowned and said," The princess doesn't dare to eat anything now. If this goes on, even if she doesn't choke to death, she will starve to death! What should we do?"
When the others heard this, they also listened slightly and entered into thought.
