Qin Ye's heart tightened:
"stop……"
"Don't come over here!"
Qin Jiaojiao took three steps back, holding the child in her left hand and a dagger in her right hand. The shiny dagger pressed against the child's delicate skin, leaving a blood mark.
Blood seeped out.
"You suddenly came to care about me and tried every means to hold the baby. I knew you had bad intentions."
She sneered.
"Oh! It seems that the old immortal of the Emperor told you this!"
Old man, you’re still not behaving yourself even after having a stroke.
Even if I knew the truth, so what?
The child's life rests in her hands.
"Qin Ye, Qin Ye, you could never imagine that you raise my daughter and I raise your son. It is also thanks to you, my good son, that he has become King Li's right-hand man." She raised the corners of her lips, and the arc of calculation was sinister.
Qin Ye stood stiffly where he was, not daring to move.
"What do you want?"
She stared at the dagger in her hand, afraid that if she lost her grip or it shook, she would cut the child's throat.
Ten months of pregnancy.
Her son is a piece of flesh that fell from her body.
She didn't dare to gamble, nor could she afford to gamble.
Qin Jiaojiao said: "Don't you know what I want? Identity, status, power, everything. I want to be the queen. I want you and Prince Chen to become commoners and lose everything. Everything you have must be given to me!"
Otherwise, she killed the child.
"Now, immediately, release King Li!"
"Within a quarter of an hour, I want Wang Li to appear in front of me safely. Otherwise, don't blame me for having no eyes for the knife in my hand!"
Qin Ye raised his hands, "Don't move!"
He stepped back three steps and calmed Qin Jiaojiao down:
"Hold your knife steady. If the child gets hurt, you will suffer the consequences."
Qin Jiaojiao found it very funny.
You're at a disadvantage, yet you still dare to challenge her?
Where does the courage come from?
She controlled the hostage in her hand and forced Qin Ye, "Get out."
Qin Ye walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the door, Zong Zhengchen, Yun Ying, and dozens of secret guards who were waiting outside hurriedly surrounded her. The guards even drew their weapons and rushed in, forming a big circle, surrounding Princess Li tightly, and not even a mosquito could fly out.
Zong Zhengchen saw this, his eyes darkened, he took a step forward, and said in a cold voice:
"It seems that you want the nine clans to be buried with you."
Qin Jiaojiao laughed:
"Your Highness Prince Chen, please don't scare me. Look at this child, so white and tender. The skin on his neck is as tender as a peeled egg. If I cut him with the knife, I'm afraid the whole head will be cut off."
She giggled sweetly.
The words he said made everyone feel cold in their hearts.
horrible!
"Princess Li, you are also a mother, how can you say such words and do such vicious things?" Yun Ying questioned, "Don't forget, although you have captured Zi Ye, your daughter Lu Qin is in our hands!"
Butler Yang even said:
"If you want Lu Qin to be safe, it's best to hand over the emperor's eldest grandson so that we can exchange him."
Exchange King Li's daughter for King Chen's son.
One for one, equal.
But Qin Jiaojiao would not agree.
"Do you think I'm a fool? If I take this child, I can control all of you. As for Zongzheng Luqin... I have never taken care of her for a single day since she was born, and I have no feelings for her. What does her life or death have to do with me?"
The indifference on her face, like a real demon, chilled the hearts of everyone present.
How could there be such a cruel mother in the world!
Qin Ye was stunned and said:
"Qin Jiaojiao, Lu Qin is a piece of flesh that fell from your body! She is your biological daughter!"
"Can my daughter stop me from becoming rich and powerful? That's ridiculous. If I lose my daughter, I can still have another one. But if I lose the battle for power, what's the use of my daughter?" Qin Jiaojiao's eyes flashed with madness.
"Can this daughter give me the position of queen?" He was as cold-blooded as a poisonous snake, and he had no emotion at all when talking about his daughter.
"If that's not possible, then what's the point of having a daughter? What do I need her for?!"
