Lin Luwan had no idea what this thing was. She only tasted a bitter taste in her mouth and was afraid it was some kind of medicine. Now her throat was burning, which was really uncomfortable.
"You'd better not touch me!" Lin Luwan gritted her teeth. She was pinned to the ground by Xuchun, looking extremely embarrassed. "If I report this to the emperor, you will be guilty of deceiving the emperor!"
What a crime of deceiving the emperor.
Lin Jiuxi's lips curved, but she didn't care at all. She shrugged slightly, and her fingertips fell on the side of Lin Luwan's face: "This medicine is not poisonous, but you must ask me for the antidote every month. If you tell me, once I die, you must be buried with me within a month. Do you want to live or be loyal? You can decide for yourself."
She said it nonchalantly, but her palms were already full of sweat. She didn't know whether Lin Luwan valued her life or was willing to fight to the death regardless of the consequences. Now this was just a test.
But when he saw Lin Luwan trembling all over, Lin Jiuxi finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked Xuchun to throw her out.
Being thrown out like this, Lin Luwan's hair was disheveled and she looked extremely embarrassed. Although Prince Duan's Mansion was relatively remote, there were still people passing by. Now, people were coming and going outside for some reason, and Lin Luwan's appearance was seen clearly.
"The imperial guards will arrive soon. Please pack up some important things and I will take you away." Nangong Jing's eyes have almost recovered now. He would certainly not leave Lin Jiuxi here. Moreover, if the emperor couldn't catch him, he would surely be furious.

Lin Jiuxi still looked clueless on the surface, but in his heart he had already cursed the emperor a thousand times, calling him a coward who beats women. He was not capable of competing with Nangong Jing openly, and only used despicable means like concubines to win favor. Now he had the audacity to send troops to surround Prince Duan's Mansion without any reason at all.
The emperor looked at the crazy Lin Jiuxi, frowned, kicked her away, snorted coldly, and waited for someone to enter the house to search.
"I wanted to get rid of him in a tactful way, but he was so ungrateful. Don't blame me for being rude." The emperor had a sullen face, not caring at all about the embarrassing words he had just said.
"Your Majesty, the building is empty and only this madman is left."
"Since the princess is willing to let me stay, she must want me to do something." Xuchun's eyes were red. She knew that Lin Jiuxi might not have decided to survive this time, and was delaying just to save the prince.
Upon hearing the news in Prince Duan's Mansion, Nangong Jing's face suddenly turned dark. This emperor was truly shameless. He had been kind enough to let him sit on the throne for two more days, but that dog emperor just wasn't happy.
Jiu hesitated for a while and nodded. It was still unknown whether she could escape. However, it would be a pity for such a woman to die like this. "Take care, Princess."
The eunuch couldn't persuade him, so he had to leave silently.
In this case, after today, it would be better to remove him from the throne.
The emperor sneered, and even in the torchlight it seemed particularly cold. He pinched Lin Jiuxi's jaw, ignored her cries, and kicked her again: "Since your good husband doesn't want you, don't blame me for being merciless."
He was not surprised at all that Nangong Jing would leave Lin Jiuxi behind when he escaped. He would have been suspicious if he escaped with such a lunatic.
The latter dared not delay any longer. She rubbed her hands on the ground, making herself look like a beggar, then put on a rough maid's clothes, glanced at Lin Jiuxi, then gritted her teeth and rushed out of the house.
Just a quarter of an hour after Xuchun left, the emperor's troops arrived as promised. Lin Jiuxi let her black hair down and sat on the ground, looking as if she was not in any danger. She looked at the torches running around, clapped her hands and laughed, "This is really fun. Who are you? Come and play games with me?"
She laughed crazily, not even noticing the mud falling into her mouth. She smacked her lips and looked at the emperor, smudging his clothes with one hand and saying, "Come and play with me!"
After the group left, Lin Jiuxi called Xuchun. She had a smile in her eyes, but her palms were sweating from nervousness: "Xuchun, I sent everyone else away, but only kept you. Do you blame me?"
But she refused to care and hurriedly got up from the ground. She hated Lin Jiuxi to the core in her heart. It was all her, Lin Jiuxi's fault, that she was in such a disgraceful and shameful state.
If Lin Jiuxi knew what this girl was thinking, she would probably laugh out loud. She didn't leave, firstly, to continue to maintain her crazy persona, secondly, the emperor would surely relax his vigilance towards her in the future, and thirdly, she wanted Xuchun to go to Linglong Pavilion and ask the Pavilion Master to come out and save her.
"I'd better trouble you to take the prince away first," Lin Jiuxi said as she handed the brocade box to Jiu. She smiled slightly, and her look was so touching. "I have my own way to get out of this."
The emperor's expression became more ferocious after hearing this. He looked at Lin Jiuxi, who was unaware of the danger on the ground, and felt that he was an eyesore: "He got the news quickly, but he left in just half an hour. He left behind such a madman."
Lin Jiuxi nodded slightly when she heard that. She took her time to pack her things and then coughed lightly. Nangong Jing was suddenly covered by the guards behind her with her mouth and nose. There seemed to be a lot of sleeping pills in the handkerchief. When she fainted, she only had time to see Lin Jiuxi's apologetic face.
"Take this jade pendant, smear your face, and go to Linglong Pavilion to ask the Pavilion Master to save me. Remember, you must tell him that I'm dying." Lin Jiuxi patted Xuchun's face and then sighed slowly. Life or death all depended on Xuchun.
But at this moment, even though the man in the palace had thrown Rong into the Eternal Lane, he was still not satisfied. How could he be willing to accept that a good opportunity was ruined by such an ungrateful thing?
What the emperor did is really despicable.
The sword light was like the emperor's eyes, sharp and cold, as if Lin Jiuxi was already a dead object. No matter how scared Lin Jiuxi was, she couldn't move.
In this situation, if she ran half a step, she would definitely be pierced by a sword.
But the emperor's patience was obviously not that good. He held the sword and was about to pierce her heart the next moment, but he heard a scolding.
"What is the emperor doing?"
