Princess Anle looked her up and down:
She was bound by a giant net at this moment, and should have been in a sorry state and terrified.
But her eyes were bright and she looked very calm, without a trace of embarrassment.
Princess Anle's eyes turned cold: "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Lin Xiuyan immediately chimed in, "I'm scared! I'm absolutely terrified!"
Princess Anle: "..."
After being publicly beaten by Lin Xiuyan that day, he kept thinking about how to kill her.
After thinking it over, he finally decided to use Xu Qianting as bait to lure Madam Xu out.
However, she was much more vigilant than he expected, and noticed something amiss before even stepping into their encirclement.
He could have killed her directly, but he felt that she had humiliated him so much that day that he needed to make her feel extreme fear before killing her.
Her reaction was completely different from what he had expected, and he was very disappointed.
He reached out and pinched her chin, saying, "It's okay, you're not afraid now, but you'll be soon."
Lin Xiuyan frowned slightly. Why was this guy like Ye Junfei, always pinching people's chins?
Princess Anle said calmly, "Cut off her hands and feet and throw her into that pit."
As soon as he finished speaking, a guard slowly drew his long sword and reached out to pull Lin Xiuyan's hands and feet.
Lin Xiuyan did not resist at all, and even cooperated by stretching her hands and feet out of the net hole.
The guards: "..."
They've never seen anyone so cooperative!
This left them momentarily at a loss as to how to proceed.
Lin Xiuyan laughed and said, "I thought that a princess who grew up in the palace would be very innovative in killing people, but it seems that her level is not very good."
“If someone were to hit me in public like that, once they were in my hands, I would skin them alive first.”
"Then they stuffed straw into the skin, and as for the flesh on his body, they sliced it off piece by piece and cooked it on a red-hot iron."
Princess Anle's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, and she raised her hand slightly, causing the guards who were about to cut off her hands and feet to temporarily stop.
He looked at her and said, "How do you know about the Blazing Torture?"
Because the burning punishment was extremely cruel, the emperor abolished it to demonstrate his benevolence.
Ironically, Princess Anle's mother died under this punishment.
Lin Xiuyan said calmly, "Consort Min was both beautiful and talented, unparalleled in the world. It's really pitiful that she ended up like this."
"As for how I know about this, of course it was the Crown Prince who told me!"
Of course, Ye Junfei didn't tell her this; she learned it by chance in her previous life.
Princess Anle sneered, "Since you're so eager to experience this punishment, then I'll grant your wish."
Several guards immediately took out knives, preparing to skin Lin Xiuyan.
Lin Xiuyan leaned against the internet and said lazily, "Not only do I know this, I also know where the iron blocks Zhou Chenyang mined are."
Princess Anle's expression changed slightly, and she gestured for the guards to stop again.
He looked at Lin Xiuyan and asked, "Where is the iron block?"
Lin Xiuyan looked at the large net that trapped her and said with a smile, "Please let me down first, Princess, and I will take you to find the iron block."
She mentioned the punishments only to tell Princess Anle that Ye Junfei trusted her completely and told her everything.
If she directly said that she knew the whereabouts of the iron block, Princess Anle would not believe her.
As expected, Princess Anle fell for the trap.
Princess Anle looked at her and asked, "Why should I believe you?"
When Princess Anle arrived in Chongqing this time and discovered that the iron block was missing, she immediately sent people to search for it.
But so far, there's been no progress; the iron blocks seem to have vanished into thin air.
Those iron blocks were extremely important to him, and he was determined to get them.
Lin Xiuyan smiled: "Of course, it's because of the prince's favor towards me."
"From the first moment he saw me, he was completely devoted to me."
“He often told me that I was his heart, his liver, and his precious darling.”
"For me, he would rather not marry the princess, and he would rather give up the title of Prince of Pingnan, as long as he can kiss me every day."
The guards: "..."
Princess Anle: "…………"
Despite his noble status, this was the first time he had ever heard such vulgar language.
However, these words perfectly fit Ye Junfei's character in Princess Anle's mind.
Ye Junfei was just as shameless when he was in the capital!
Princess Anle said coldly, "Vulgar!"
Lin Xiuyan laughed and said, "It's only natural for men and women to be in love. What's so vulgar about that?"
"Besides, the princess has come all this way to get married, so there's no need to be embarrassed."
Princess Anle frowned slightly.
Lin Xiuyan continued, "To be honest, I was the one who instigated the young master to lead people to rob those iron blocks."
"Because I just wanted to kill Zhou Chenyang, so that he couldn't answer to the court, and I would use the court's power to kill him."
"After all, if I were to take action directly, he is an official appointed by the court and someone the emperor values highly. If he dies, the court will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly."
Princess Anle's gaze deepened as she looked at her: "Lin Xiuyan, you are a little different from what I imagined."
After all, all the information he found about her pointed to her as an uneducated playboy.
Lin Xiuyan sighed deeply and said, "The princess grew up in the palace and must have seen many innocent girls whose personalities changed drastically after entering the palace."
“I love Zhou Chenyang to the bone, but he got together with my cousin and even tried to steal my family’s money. I’m very angry.”
"So I plotted to take revenge on him. After learning the prince's identity, I did everything I could to seduce him."
She then smiled slightly at Princess Anle: "If I had known that the Emperor would bestow a marriage upon the Crown Prince and the Princess, I certainly..."
Everyone thought that she definitely wouldn't dare to compete with Princess Anle for Ye Junfei.
Unexpectedly, she continued, "I will definitely coax him into marrying me as soon as possible, and I will absolutely not give the princess a chance to cause a scene at our wedding."
Everyone: "..."
Princess Anle: "..."
He had met countless people, but he had never seen anyone like Lin Xiuyan.
This woman was not only incredibly audacious and arrogant, but also unpredictable.
He asked coldly, "Where's the iron block?"
Lin Xiuyan chuckled and said, "Princess, please put me down. I'll take you to find her."
Princess Anle's face was cold and gloomy. Lin Xiuyan winked at him and said, "Princess, are you afraid I'll run away?"
She looked at Princess Anle's guards and said, "With so many of you, you can't possibly keep an eye on me alone, can you? That would be utterly useless."
The guards glared at her, and she gave them the middle finger.
The guards: "..."
I really want to kill her!
Princess Anle said coldly, "There's no need for such trouble. I'll cut off your hands and feet, and you'll naturally tell me where the iron block is."
