Emperor Yun Ao was not interested in Ye Lanyin at first, but when he heard that she had actually divorced her husband in public.
This immediately drew all his attention.
"Divorce?"
This woman looks incredibly frail, yet she dares to divorce her husband?
He thought the woman was the regent's wife!
"Yes, when I went to the Holy Kingdom, the people in the streets and alleys were talking about it, and I overheard it by chance."
"Such a strong-willed woman, I wouldn't mind exchanging you for this child." Emperor Yun Ao's lips curled into a tyrannical smile. He said, "You really want to replace her?"
“Yes!” Ye Lanyin responded without hesitation when she heard Emperor Yun Ao agree.
Wanwan was born to die, and after so much effort, she finally lived to be three years old. How can she be sacrificed like this?
She's over thirty, but she's not afraid!
"Lanyin!" The Regent gripped her hand tightly and whispered, "I can protect you!"
"No, my husband, Wanwan is my life. I don't want any of you to get hurt. If I can exchange my life for your safety, I'm willing."
“The Yun Ao Kingdom is powerful. If the two countries go to war, the Holy Kingdom will inevitably suffer. We cannot be so selfish.”
"If I leave, you... take good care of our child."
Ye Lanyin looked at the man she loved deeply, her eyes red-rimmed.
In this life, she had wronged the Regent. If there is a next life, she will belong to him completely.
I won't miss out on so many things again.
"No, Mother."
When Xiao Wanwan heard that Ye Lanyin was going to take her place, she cried out, "Mother, Wanwan can protect herself."
"My child, all I hope for is that you grow up well and safely."
The soldiers dragged Xiao Wanwan with one hand and pulled Ye Lanyin with the other, walking towards the entrance of the main hall.
The eunuchs and palace maids at the entrance had already set up the sacrificial altar.
The altar was surrounded by a circle of straw, and in front of it was a small table, an incense burner, and incense.
"Hahaha, today I'll use you all to sacrifice to the Star Goddess Chiti! Don't rush, one at a time!"
Ye Lanyin abruptly stopped crying, turning her head in horror to look at Yun Aodi, who was smiling wickedly in the sunlight. "Didn't you agree to switch places with me?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yun Ao's eyes were filled with mockery and disdain.
"You stole the Qiankun Sword and ruined the reputation of Yun'ao Kingdom. Now you dare to invade my Yun'ao Kingdom."
"It seems you are all men of principle. How could I not give you a chance to perform?"
"I've never seen such a good opportunity in my entire life!"
"Once you are dead, I will send your bodies back to the Holy Kingdom and tell them that you trespassed into the mountains beyond the mountains and were seen by the people of Yun'ao Kingdom. We kindly sent you back!"
A calculating glint flashed in Emperor Yun Ao's eyes.
