Yu Qianqian, kneeling on the ground with her face slightly lowered, caught a glimpse of countless enemy soldiers silently approaching like a dark cloud behind her. Her trembling hand gripped the longsword that was lying upside down on the ground again. Suddenly, she straightened up and turned around quickly, turning her back to the man on the ground and facing the thousands of troops.
"Qian...Qianqian, don't go..." Mu Beichen turned his head and looked up. His urgent shouts were drowned out, and all he could hear was the repeated screams echoing in his ears. Yu Qianqian stood in front of him, blocking the bloody scene from his vision...
The long sword held high in Yu Qianqian's hand gleamed with cold light. The moment she raised her sword to strike, she suddenly felt her vision go black. In the blurry vision, she saw more and more men in armor riding horses and galloping towards her.
Her hand trembled, and the longsword fell into the ground. She used one arm to support herself, breathing heavily, but a picture vaguely appeared in her mind. What was she thinking?
She was thinking that last night, when she was kidnapped as soon as she opened her eyes at the Imperial Hospital, she had heard someone say that she knew some powerful martial arts before she almost fainted. Fearing that she would cause trouble for her after she woke up, they asked a woman to feed her a pill for safety reasons. They said it was a slow poison that would not take effect immediately after she took it, but she would definitely die if she circulated her qi.
Although it's impossible to see with one's own eyes who that woman is, it's not hard to guess the reason with just a little guess. The person who can command the wind and rain here at will and knows her so well is none other than Leng Yuexi.
However, Yu Qianqian was slow to realize the truth this time. By the time she learned everything, it was too late. Perhaps she should have realized earlier that the whole show that took place at Xingyue Tower was the first step in Leng Yuexi's plan to get close to and use her. Later, when they were fleeing for their lives together, they accidentally ended up in the territory of Ziyan Kingdom, and from then on, they fell right into the other party's trap.
Leng Yuexi's meticulous planning stems from a simple reason: as the eldest princess of the Ziyan Kingdom, she prioritizes the interests of the royal family. It is therefore understandable that her elaborate schemes against Yu Qianqian, regardless of the cost, are solely aimed at luring Mu Beichen out and then eliminating them with the help of the Southern Kingdom's soldiers, thus removing a major threat to the Ziyan Kingdom.
As for Su Yu, he was only dragged into this difficult situation and became a puppet because of her. Without a doubt, he was the most innocent one.
Oh well, it's fate.
Yu Qianqian smiled bitterly to herself. Suddenly, she focused her gaze on the man in red who was slowly getting up from the ground. A gloomy look appeared on her face. The deep pain in his eyes and his ambiguous smile burned her heart and soul.
Although the two were only three feet apart, at this moment and in this place, it was as if they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and could never be together.
His eyes met hers, his expression was calm, but his complex gaze held a mixture of emotions that struck her deepest feelings.
I wish I could use all my deepest feelings to resist that indelible fate!
She used to think that a lifetime seemed so long, but now she suddenly realized that the saying "life is short" is true. Thinking back to when they first met in Beicheng, and later when she married into the Jing Prince's mansion and became his wife, they supported each other and walked through thorns all the way. He became emperor and she became empress. It was nothing more than them fulfilling each other's beautiful dream.
