The palace maid said anxiously, "Princess, it's the prince of Chen Kingdom! How did he fall into the lake in the dead of winter? We must get the guards to rescue him right away!"
Fu Gui said, "Come forward."
The palace maid was puzzled, but she still obediently walked to the lakeside.
Fu Gui kicked her into the lake: "If you want to save him so badly, go save him yourself."
The palace maid thrashed and begged for mercy in the icy lake water, while the other palace servants stared in horror at Fugui, unable to believe that the once innocent and kind princess had suddenly become so cruel.
That was her most trusted personal maid.
"What are you all looking at? Do you want to go swim a few laps too?"
"Princess, please calm down. This servant would not dare."
Qi Yu, sitting in the water, was filled with doubt and suspicion. He had been secretly observing Yan Xi for a long time. She was kind-hearted and gentle with the servants, and did not seem like the kind of person who would leave someone to die.
The palace maid who was kicked into the water drowned within minutes.
Qi Yu saw that Yan Xi still had no intention of saving him. The lake water was too cold, and if he continued to pretend, he wouldn't be able to hold on any longer.
So, Qi Yu thrashed about with his limbs and made his way to the shore.
In the dead of winter, he was dressed very thinly.
At this moment, with his clothes soaked and his handsome face shivering, he looked like a truly alluring but pitiful little thing.
He trembled as he reached out his hand to Fugui: "Please, Princess, save me..."
Fu Gui clicked his tongue twice and said to Ata, "His cold and broken feeling is damn tempting. No wonder Yan Xi couldn't resist him, and those palace maids also looked reluctant to do it. He's a femme fatale."
Ata said angrily, "I'm warning you, don't mess around. If you dare to let lust cloud your judgment and affect the mission, see if the boss won't teach you a lesson."
Fu Gui squatted down and extended his hand to Qi Yu: "Come here."
"You rich bastard, are you serious? I'm going to tell the boss."
Qi Yu, trembling, reached out her hand to Fu Gui, her eyes filled with gratitude and admiration: "Thank you, Princess, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the stunningly beautiful princess curled her lips into a smile, reached out and grabbed his wrist, pulling him sharply.
A powerful force struck, a strength that seemed impossible for a little girl.
A bad feeling welled up in his heart. Just as he was about to speak again, Fu Gui slid a dagger out of his sleeve and plunged it directly into his heart.
"Princess, you..."
Fu Gui grinned, and to Qi Yu's incredulous gaze, grabbed the back of his head by the hair and shoved him into the water.
Ata: "..."
Qi Yu was now struggling desperately, but to no avail. The little princess was incredibly strong, and he couldn't break free at all.
The bone-chilling lake water poured into his lungs, causing Qi Yu's limbs to convulse and his chest to feel like it was about to explode.
The palace servants were pale-faced, and not one dared to utter a sound.
Qi Yu's struggles grew weaker and weaker. The pain in his chest made it hard for him to breathe. The hand holding him down felt as heavy as a thousand pounds and didn't move an inch from beginning to end.
Qi Yu never understood how he had fallen so ridiculously in the end.
Where exactly did things go wrong?
Realizing that Qi Yu had already died, Fu Gui slowly released his grip, watching him float face down on the water.
"It's all done."
Ata was convinced: "You really are quick, accurate, and ruthless."
"Otherwise what?" Fugui asked, puzzled.
Ata said embarrassedly, "I've read a lot of novels before, and many women's favorite way to get revenge is to make their enemy fall in love with them, and then abandon them in the end, making them regret it."
"You seemed quite interested in him just now, I thought you..."
"What the hell is this? What's the value of regret? How long can you regret it? Is it the kind of thing where you shed a few tears, roar at the sky, and then go back to what you were doing?"
Ata added, "There's another kind, which says something like, 'May you possess a vast empire and enjoy boundless loneliness.'"
Fu Gui was even more disgusted: "Is this revenge? This is a blessing. You have a vast empire, what's there to be lonely about? You can have any kind of woman you want. You really think you're something special."
Ata said, "You're just like the boss in this respect. The boss also hates these kinds of idiots and says that if you encounter a person who makes a wish, you should tell them to get lost."
Fu Gui said smugly, "Hehe, of course, I'm An An's sweet little darling, of course I'm on her side."
As soon as Fugui stretched out her hand, which was wet with lake water, a palace maid immediately came forward to help her wipe it clean.
Holding a warm hand warmer, Fugui waved her hand and said, "I'm hungry. Let's go back to the palace for a meal."
The palace servants followed behind her tremblingly, not daring to have any thoughts of their own.
News of Qi Yu's death quickly spread throughout the palace. Fu Gui was summoned by the emperor for questioning, along with the empress and the crown prince.
"Xi'er, tell your father why you killed that hostage from Chen Kingdom?"
The Empress and the Crown Prince looked at her with concern: "Xi'er, what happened? I heard you even killed your personal maid."
Fu Gui said, "The Chen Kingdom is only pretending to surrender; in reality, they are still plotting against us. Father, please don't believe them. Qi Yu colluded with the people around me to try to kill me, so I killed him."
The three looked at each other, wondering why Yan Xi, who had never understood these things, had suddenly become interested in politics.
Crown Prince Yan Ze asked, "Xi'er, how do you know all this?"
"I dreamt about it."
The three of them: "..."
Even though the emperor found it absurd, he still sent people to investigate and they found evidence of Qi Yu's collusion with the palace maid.
That night, under Fugui's manipulation, the emperor saw the scene of the Li Kingdom in his previous life, a time of widespread suffering and national ruin.
Upon seeing his little princess leap from the city wall, the emperor suddenly opened his eyes.
Is this the fate that Lebanon was destined to have?
So Xi'er killed Qi Yu to prevent all of this from happening.
The emperor couldn't sleep, so he summoned his secret guards that very night: "Go to the Chen Kingdom and see what they're up to behind the scenes. Don't let any unusual activity slip by."
"Yes, ma'am."
One day in the celestial realm is equivalent to one year in the mortal world.
Princess Yaoshang of the Immortal Realm stood on the Reincarnation Platform, gazing earnestly at the mortal realm below.
A fairy flattered, "The High God has been gone for several days, and the princess has been here for several days to visit him. She will be overjoyed when the High God returns from his tribulation."
"I heard that the High God will suffer a lot during this tribulation. Princess, you must be worried about him."
Yao Chang said coldly, "You little immortal, what business is it of yours to interfere in my affairs with the High God?"
The fairy knelt down with a thud, her face pale: "This humble fairy had no intention of offending you, please forgive me, Princess."
Yao Chang lifted the fairy's chin, saw her beautiful appearance, and a malice flashed in her eyes.
She slapped her across the face, her fingernails leaving a bloody mark on the fairy's face.
"Recognize your own position, don't overestimate yourself and have ulterior motives. Li Ye is not someone you can covet."
The female immortal covered her face, not daring to even cry: "This humble immortal dares not. Everyone in the immortal realm knows that the High God and the Princess are in love and are a divine couple. No one else can catch the High God's eye."
Yao Chang was satisfied and stopped, snorting, "You're smart to know what's good for you, get lost."
The female fairy covered her face and fled in panic, vowing to stay far away from this crazy couple from now on.
That God of Night is a show-off and arrogant fool, he really thinks everyone treats him like a hot commodity.
A dozen or so days ago, Yaoshang saw Liye off here.
She hugged Li Ye tightly, reluctant to part: "Come back soon, I'll be waiting for you in the Immortal Realm. Don't fall in love with anyone else."
Li Ye chuckled and said, "You've already seen my fate book through my tribulations, haven't you? I'm severing all emotions and love, and I don't get close to women. Aren't you reassured?"
Yao Chang said, "I've heard that the women in the palace are all vixens and lowlifes. I'm afraid they'll seduce you."
"Don't worry, my beloved is the most beautiful woman in the celestial realm. How could I possibly fall for a mere mortal?"
Yao Chang was pleased and said, "Alright, go ahead. We'll get married when you return from your tribulation."
