Chapter 223

Volume 1_Chapter 223: The Regent Has Come to Kill (Part 1)

Just at this moment, Yun Qiyue spoke.

"Crown Prince, why do you want me to become your woman so much?"

When she asked this question, Yun Qiyue had a smile on her face, and the smile was even thicker than before.

After all, Yun Qiyue had no poison spots on her face, only a half-mask that didn't detract from her looks, so at this moment, Yun Qiyue made it especially hard for people to look away.

In Xuanyuan Qi's eyes, Yun Qiyue at this moment was simply peerless.

Facing such a Yun Qiyue, Xuanyuan Qi lost his guard for a moment.

However, regarding why he insisted on making Yun Qiyue his woman, Xuanyuan Qi was not stupid enough to answer.

And Yun Qiyue didn't expect Xuanyuan Qi to answer either.

Whether he answered or not didn't matter; what mattered was that Xuanyuan Qi had reduced his guard against her.

"I have carefully considered it just now, and I feel that the Crown Prince's proposal..."

While speaking, a silver needle had quietly appeared in Yun Qiyue's hand.

And she was only two meters away from Xuanyuan Qi.

And the guard closest to her was also two meters away at this very moment.

So, now was the good time.

"I still choose to refuse." Yun Qiyue gave the final answer.

At the same time, Yun Qiyue's figure moved.

Then, before anyone could react, Yun Qiyue reached Xuanyuan Qi's side with super speed.

Yun Qiyue's various foreshadowing made Xuanyuan Qi think that Yun Qiyue was going to agree to him; who knew that Yun Qiyue would make such a sharp turn and refuse him.

This huge reversal also made Xuanyuan Qi unable to react for a moment.

So, this momentary lack of reaction gave Yun Qiyue the opportunity.

When the guards realized it and stepped forward to grab Yun Qiyue, Yun Qiyue had already stuck a needle into one of Xuanyuan Qi's acupuncture points, and a dagger had appeared in her hand, held directly against Xuanyuan Qi's throat.

Everything happened in an instant.

If it weren't for Yun Qiyue having a good master, she might not have been able to complete such fast movements in such a short time.

"You had better not move." Yun Qiyue said calmly.

Seeing the blade in Yun Qiyue's hand held against Xuanyuan Qi's throat, the guards were scared into a cold sweat and no one dared to move.

Seeing this, Yun Qiyue asked the system, "A needle wound doesn't count as an injury, right?"

Especially since the acupuncture point she chose wouldn't make Xuanyuan Qi feel pain.

System: "... It doesn't."

Just as the system said it didn't, Xuanyuan Qi fainted.

Yun Qiyue quickly caught and supported Xuanyuan Qi, "You had better not disturb me."

Yun Qiyue glanced at those guards who were both panicked and wary, and after saying such an ambiguous sentence, she dragged Xuanyuan Qi into the room with great strength.

Then, in front of the guards, she closed the door.

The guards: "..."

So, Yun Sanyuan knocked out the Crown Prince and brought him into the room; what is she going to do?

Could it be that the refusal Yun Sanyuan just said was actually a verbal refusal, but she actually wanted to do something to the Crown Prince...

For a moment, the guards' thoughts went more and more astray.

However, after going astray, they quickly became anxious again.

What if Yun Sanyuan didn't have those thoughts about the Crown Prince, but wanted to show disrespect to the Crown Prince?

Just as the guards were hesitating whether to smash the door and fight a bloody path to save the Crown Prince, the door was opened from the inside.

Yun Qiyue appeared before everyone's eyes.

The guards immediately went into a state of readiness, preparing to act.

"I advise you not to act first, otherwise the consequences are not something you can bear."

Saying this, Yun Qiyue ignored the reactions of the guards and turned to walk to the bedside.

At this time, Crown Prince Xuanyuan Qi had been thrown onto the bed by Yun Qiyue.

And after Yun Qiyue walked to the bedside, she sat there and didn't move.

The guards: "..." What is this doing?

For a moment, everyone couldn't understand Yun Qiyue's operation.

Just at this moment, the Crown Prince on the bed moved slightly.

Yun Qiyue looked at Crown Prince Xuanyuan Qi, her lips curling slightly.

Now, the torture begins.

And Xuanyuan Qi soon fell into agony.

This was Yun Qiyue's punishment for Xuanyuan Qi.

Causing nightmares; although it doesn't hurt or itch, the damage to the spirit is extremely great.

Yun Qiyue thought it over and felt that Xuanyuan Qi deserved to suffer this punishment.

Sure enough, when Crown Prince Xuanyuan Qi was in extreme pain, Yun Qiyue heard the system's voice.

"Host, task completed. You can choose any one type of medicine."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue's eyes lit up.

This task, could it be any simpler?

As for the medicine... Yun Qiyue wanted them all, so after thinking it over, she decided to reserve the right to choose first.

And the guards, watching the Crown Prince scream in pain in his sleep, felt a chill in their hearts, thinking that Yun Qiyue had poisoned the Crown Prince, so none of them dared to step forward.

Finally, some guards went to get Yu Lin.

After Yu Lin arrived, he also didn't dare to go in, but said angrily, "Yun Sanyuan, you have such great courage, how dare you poison the Crown Prince?"

Yun Qiyue looked at Yu Lin and said calmly, "If I didn't have the courage, how would I dare to come to your Yu family?"

The Yu family could be called a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

Yu Lin was choked, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Yun Qiyue say, "Besides, where does Imperial Uncle Yu have the evidence that I poisoned the Crown Prince? It is clearly that the Crown Prince is having nightmares due to excessive fright just now."

Yu Lin: "..."

How big of a scene was it that the Crown Prince was scared into having nightmares? If this gets out, does the Crown Prince still want his reputation?

Just as Yu Lin thought this, a servant ran in in terror at the door.

"Master, it's bad, the Regent... the Regent has come to kill—"

Upon hearing this, Yu Lin's expression changed drastically.

The Regent has come to kill, and the Crown Prince hasn't succeeded yet; what should be done?

Yu Lin was anxious, and finally, his gaze fell on Yun Qiyue's face, and he hardened his heart.

"Someone, at any cost, capture Yun Qiyue."

Now that the Regent has come to kill, the only way to preserve the Yu family is to capture Yun Qiyue.

Yun Qiyue looked at the expression in Yu Lin's eyes, knowing in her heart that Yu Lin was going to fight to the death, her expression slightly stern, though not showing it on her face, she asked Yu Lin, "Could it be that Imperial Uncle Yu doesn't even care about the Crown Prince's life?"

Yu Lin hesitated for a moment.

However, soon, Yu Lin calmed down.

"The Crown Prince was harmed by Yun Sanyuan; if the Emperor and Empress blame me, it naturally won't be on my head."

In fact, long before he agreed to cooperate with the Crown Prince, he had already thought it through.

Once things changed, preserving himself was more important than preserving the Crown Prince.

Yu Lin had always been a selfish person.

After saying this, Yu Lin waved his hand, signaling for people to act.

And Yun Qiyue, long before she spoke with Yu Lin, had already brought out life-saving poison, and was even wondering whether she should just take out the strong poison from the New Century.
