Su Muyao's hands were inside her wide sleeves, and the pistol was already in her hand, ready at any moment.

As long as the Prince of Xiaoyao makes a move, he can guarantee that he will be able to shoot and hit him immediately.

His arrogance stemmed from his discord with the emperor, coupled with the fact that he was indeed a major villain.

Although he is not a good person, as long as he doesn't become my enemy, I won't think about using firearms to deal with him.

But since she's already determined to get rid of me, I can't blame her.

Then, the Carefree King pulled the knife out of the table and started to walk towards Su Muyao.

The emperor on the high throne was truly furious. The little princess was the lucky star of his great dynasty, and with her around, he believed the dynasty would rise to even greater heights. Therefore, he would not allow anyone to harm the little lucky star.

"Guards, seize Prince Xiaoyao for me."

Several guards rushed in from outside and went to restrain the Prince of Xiaoyao.

"You dog emperor, you're going to turn against me right now?"

The emperor, however, didn't care about the way the Prince of Xiaoyao addressed him, and instead said with a tone of admonition, "You weren't like this before, how come you've become like this now..."

"Haha, are you trying to say that I was kind before? I have to admit that I was foolish before."

Now, all I know is that being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to myself. Since she is an unknown quantity, then eliminating her will suffice.

If you insist on breaking ties with me, I won't hesitate to grant your wish; I originally intended to let you live a little longer.

As soon as the carefree king finished speaking, all the ministers subconsciously moved to the side.

The current situation is unclear, and it seems like the Carefree King is about to rebel!

They all knew that the Prince of Xiaoyao had brought a large number of troops back to the capital this time, and that he had only said he was coming back to rest and reorganize before heading to the border.

If the guards of the imperial city were to actually fight against the Prince of Xiaoyao's men, it's really hard to say who would win in the end!

"What are you all standing there for? Seize him for me."

The guards who entered, though dressed as guards, were actually assassins trained by the royal family.

"Excuse me." After saying this, one of the assassins immediately attacked the Prince of Leisure.

But how could the carefree king, a veteran of countless battles, be easily subdued by a few assassins?

After several rounds, the carefree prince was not at a disadvantage at all. Suddenly, the guards he brought also made their move, and every move they made against the assassins was fatal.

With his hand free, the carefree king walked towards Su Muyao.

He never thought Su Muyao could resist the raised broadsword, and was about to slash at Su Muyao.

While everyone was still in shock, the little princess suddenly raised her hand, and with a thud, the carefree prince fell backward.

As the carefree king collapsed, he seemed to have let go of everything. He trembled a few times with a slight smile before slowly ceasing to breathe.

Everyone was shocked until the Prince of Xiaoyao's guards stepped forward to check and then shouted, "You little bastard, you actually killed my prince! You'll pay with your life!"

Without further hesitation, Su Muyao raised the iron lump in her hand and pulled the trigger at the guard who was yelling at her.

Everyone was shocked again! Then, with another thud, the man also fell to the ground.

Unlike the carefree king, the guard convulsed for a long time after falling to the ground before slowly ceasing to breathe.

At this moment, there was complete silence, and everyone stared at Su Muyao with their mouths agape.

This included the emperor, and Su Muyao touched her nose as if she were embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, you have heard him plotting to usurp the throne. Your humble servant has dealt with this traitor for you."

Su Muyao made no mention of how Xiaoyao Wang killed her in retaliation because he wanted to kill her.

The emperor then realized what was happening and said, "Xiao Dezi, go and take a look."

Xiao Dezi, who was standing to the side, shakily descended from the high platform and came to Xiaoyao Wang. He checked Xiaoyao Wang's breath with his hand, but the man was already silent. There was a black hole on Xiaoyao Wang's head.

What everyone present was afraid of was not that someone would be killed in front of them, but something unknown.

A single raised weapon can kill a person without even touching them.

After Xiao Dezi finished his inspection, he shook his head at the emperor.

The emperor sighed softly, “The Prince of Xiaoyao was deceived by treacherous people. He not only wanted to usurp the throne, but also wanted to kill the little princess, only to be killed by her in return…”

"In that case, he is no longer worthy of being buried in the imperial mausoleum. Let's find a good place for him to be buried with great honors!"

The reason for saying he was deceived by villains is to give him the last bit of dignity.

Princess Xiaoyao, who seemed to only realize what was happening at this moment, rushed to Prince Xiaoyao's side and cried uncontrollably.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you're alright, aren't you? Please get up."

Get up and wipe them all out! You have thousands of soldiers behind you, you'll be fine, right? Get up now!

Everyone looked at Princess Xiaoyao with pity; even at a time like this, she still had to say such things.

She was so foolish that she didn't even realize it. If she had just pleaded with the emperor or done nothing at all, the emperor would never have been angry with the Princess Consort.

After all, the Princess Consort of Leisure's father was a founding minister who had saved the late emperor's life, even though he was no longer alive.

Because the person is gone, the princess is left as his only heir.

The emperor would have spared her life out of respect for her father, but he never expected the princess to be so foolish.

Soon, Su Muyao was sent back, and no further updates were given.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after the young princess left. They had never imagined that the most powerful Prince Xiaoyao would be so easily defeated by the young princess.

Especially considering that Lord Xu's legs were still trembling, it was clear that the young princess had already shown great respect for her daughter by not killing her outright, only giving her a few lashes.

Thinking about the carefree prince again, no, I have to go back and tell his good-for-nothing daughter and son-in-law that they should avoid the little princess from now on.

Everyone present gained a new understanding of the young princess's methods, which led to the fact that even if the young princess pointed her finger at them and cursed them in the future, none of them dared to utter a sound.

After all, once the seed of fear is planted, it will only grow stronger. Nothing is more important than one's life. Even though they are old, they cherish their lives very much.

...

The little wolf followed the carriage with a pitiful expression. Inside the carriage, Su Muyao asked the wet nurse, "Does the wet nurse know anything about the Prince of Xiaoyao's past?"

Su Muyao was simply curious about what the carefree king had mentioned.

Then the wet nurse sighed, "Alas, this Prince Xiaoyao is also a pitiful person."

Xia, who was standing nearby, shook her head in disagreement upon hearing this. "But I've heard that this Prince Xiaoyao has done many bad things. I've heard that he not only forcibly abducted innocent women, but also killed innocent people indiscriminately and was capricious in his temper."

The wet nurse nodded. "He may have been traumatized and become unpredictable. It was because of what happened back then that he felt that power was supreme and everyone else was just an ant."

Xia and Su Muyao sat together, listening to the wet nurse recount the deeds of the carefree prince in his youth.

"In his youth, Prince Xiaoyao was the man many women wanted to marry. He was not only handsome and dashing, but also proficient in both literature and martial arts."

Su Muyao nodded in agreement. Judging from the current appearance of the Carefree King, it was easy to see that he was also extremely handsome when he was young.

The wet nurse was secretly saddened, "It's such a pity that the Imperial Noble Consort was such a good person, and she died under the power of authority."

The late Imperial Concubine's father was a powerful general, and everyone believed that Prince Xiaoyao would be the only choice for Crown Prince.

But no one expected that the Carefree Prince only wanted to be a leisurely prince, traveling and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the land.

"Although he thought so, others did not think so. The seventh prince at the time, who is now the emperor's younger brother, was afraid that the general would support his grandson, so he bribed his own people to ambush the general and kill him in battle."

"Even after the general's death, they still did not let go of the Prince of Xiaoyao and his mother, and tried to kill them all."

At that time, the late imperial concubine went to the temple to pray for the deceased general. On her way back, she was ambushed. That night, the late imperial concubine risked her last breath to save Prince Xiaoyao.

It is said that when the late Emperor's Consort was found, her body was mangled beyond recognition, not a single inch of flesh was intact, yet she still held tightly to her 16-year-old son, the Carefree Prince.

Xia covered her mouth.
