The Gu poison in Zixin and Xiahou Yu's bodies was suppressed by Mu Tiantian, and the intense itching and pain were somewhat relieved.

"The Imperial Advisor is terrifying." Zixin was frightened and sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, her body still trembling.

Xiahou Yu patted her head and comforted her, "It'll be alright."

Mu Tiantian washed off her makeup, revealing her sweet and delicate face. She changed into an ice-blue long dress, which Yin Jiahan had prepared for her, the color of which matched his robe.

She brewed a pot of tea for the two of them, saying, "Have a sip of tea to calm your nerves."

Xiahou Yu picked up his teacup and took a sip, which calmed him down. He then fed Zixin a cup of tea.

Zixin felt calmer after drinking it.

"This tea can calm the nerves." Mu Tiantian poured another cup for the two of them. "Drink more."

"Miss Mu, aren't you afraid of someone like the Imperial Advisor?" Zixin couldn't help but ask, seeing that Mu Tiantian was very calm.

Although the imperial advisor was handsome and had an unparalleled appearance, his methods were extremely cruel and chilling.

Mu Tiantian smiled and said to the two of them, "Don't be afraid. Everything he did was for me. He became like this because of me. I'm sorry to have startled you two."

"Miss Mu, there's no need to apologize. We didn't know anything about this place and just came here unexpectedly," Zixin said somewhat embarrassedly.

She never expected that Miss Mu and the Imperial Advisor were actually engaged, or even betrothed as children.

But what's the story between her and her brother?

Zixin opened her mouth, about to ask, but then remembered that she had come in disguise and Miss Mu did not know her true identity.

If she reveals that she is a princess, will Miss Mu dislike her because of her brother, the emperor?

Zixin didn't know the details of what happened back then, but she imagined her elder brother stealing the bride and breaking up the couple.

She thought it best to keep her identity a secret for now, so she changed the subject and said, "Actually, we came to rescue you for a selfish reason. We want you to teach us how to read dice and how to roll dice."

"You haven't given up yet?" Mu Tiantian truly admired their perseverance.

Xiahou Yu smiled, "I'm just too interested."

He and Zixin both have a strong interest in this area, and no matter how difficult it is, they always have to try to find out if they can learn it.

"Alright then, I'll teach you the practice methods. As for the results, that will depend on your effort and talent."

Zixin and Xiahou Yu were delighted to hear this.

Mu Tiantian began to explain the methods to the two of them.

At this moment, not far from the courtyard.

Yin Jiahan was holding a rope and dragging an assassin along.

"Kill me, kill me!" The assassin's hands were bound with rope. He felt as if his internal organs were being gnawed by countless insects. He was in excruciating pain and desperately wanted to die.

But he was unable to commit suicide.

Inga coldly sneered, "You should have thought about the consequences before you tried to assassinate me."

The assassin hadn't expected that even though he was severely injured, his strength was still terrifying.

"Grand Preceptor, I am telling the truth. The Emperor has no intention of killing you, he just... he just wants to depose you."

Yin Jiahan didn't say anything and continued walking forward.

"Why haven't you... why haven't you killed me yet?" The assassin struggled on the ground as Inga Han dragged him along.

"I will kill you, but not now." After saying this, Yin Jiahan had already arrived outside the mansion.

The gates of the mansion were wide open, and his heart leaped into his throat. He hurriedly dragged the assassin inside.

Mu Tiantian was sitting in the pavilion chatting and laughing with Zixin and Xiahou Yu.

Seeing that she was still there, Yin Jiahan breathed a sigh of relief.

But seeing her smiling at another man, a pang of jealousy rose in my heart.

System: [Ingahan's hatred value increased by 10, currently at 80.]

Mu Tiantian's smile froze when she heard the prompt. How did it increase?

She looked towards the gate of the mansion and saw that Yin Jiahan's robe was torn and stained with blood.

"Xiao Han!" Mu Tiantian ran over to check on him worriedly and found that he had several more wounds on his body.

Then she noticed the man in black tied up with ropes behind him, and her eyes turned cold as she asked, "Did he do this?"

Yin Jiahan nodded.

Without saying a word, Mu Tiantian drew the assassin's long sword from his waist, ready to give him a quick death.

How dare they touch her people?!

Yin Jiahan hugged Mu Tiantian, feeling quite pleased to see how much she cared for him.

System: [Ingahan's hatred value decreased by 10, currently at 70.]

He took the longsword from Mu Tiantian's hand and asked softly, "Don't you want to know who wants to kill me, sister?"

"who?"

Yin Jiahan glanced at the assassin, who then spoke, "It's the Emperor, but the Emperor..."

Before the assassin could finish speaking, Yin Jiahan slit his throat with a single sword strike.

To him, crippling him was no different from killing him.

Therefore, it is enough for my older sister to hear these things.

Upon hearing this, Mu Tiantian harbored murderous intent. It seemed that Dongfang Ziyi already knew that the time limit for the curse she had placed on him had passed.

He still couldn't tolerate Xiao Han.

Qi Tong noticed that something was wrong with Mu Tiantian and quickly said, "You mustn't act impulsively. This emperor is still a good person. You can't kill him easily. That assassin hadn't finished speaking yet."

Mu Tiantian: [What if he really wanted to kill Xiao Han?]

System: [To protect yourself, you can kill him as a last resort. Besides, even if you really have to kill him, it can't be you, unless his murderous intent towards you reaches 100.]

System: [Okay, let me check what happened first. Don't act rashly; Yin Jiahan's injuries haven't healed yet. You should check on him quickly.]

Upon hearing that Yin Jiahan was injured, Mu Tiantian quickly checked on him, and Qi Tong also took the opportunity to investigate the cause.

Dongfang Ziyi is a true dragon emperor. Although his luck value is not as high as that of the world's male protagonist, Yin Jiahan, it is not low either.

His death will not benefit the world's development.

Sitting in the pavilion, Zixin and Xiahou Yu felt a sense of fear as they witnessed Yin Jia Han sword killing the assassin.

Mu Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that apart from the two cuts on Yin Jiahan's chest, the rest of his injuries were all superficial.

Yin Jiahan glanced at the two people in the pavilion, then looked down and asked Mu Tiantian, "Does elder sister want to go with them?"

"Go with them? Go where?" Mu Tiantian blinked and said seriously, "My sister said she would never leave you, she would never leave you in this lifetime."

"Where did Sister go today?" Yin Jiahan felt the Ten Mile Gu flare up in his body when he went to court today, so Mu Tiantian must have gone out.

"I'll buy you medicine, but we're out of wound medicine," Mu Tiantian said truthfully. "I just couldn't buy it because your Gu worms pulled me back."

Yin Jiahan pursed his lips and remained silent. Seeing that she did not resent him, he felt much more at ease.

System: [Ingahan's hatred value decreased by 10, currently at 60.]

Mu Tiantian remembered that the Gu poison in Zixin and Xiahou Yu's bodies had not yet been cured, so she tugged at his hand, "By the way, Xiaohan, why don't you cure them?"

Yin Jiahan glanced at the two of them.

Zixin avoided looking at him, for she had heard it: the assassin who killed him was sent by her imperial brother.

Yin Jiahan knows her; would he kill her to silence her?

Zixin became increasingly frightened as she thought about it, and she gripped Xiahou Yu's arm tightly.

Xiahou Yu protected her.

"Sister, one of them is the sister of the person who wants to kill me. What if she tells others about this?" Yin Jiahan's question made Zixin even more frightened.
