"How could I possibly harm my cousin?" Zhao Yingying's eyes were filled with frustration. "It was clearly that little bitch from the Ye family who deliberately harmed me with ulterior motives, and you even added fuel to the fire. If I had known earlier that my cousin was still alive, I would have saved him even if it cost me my own life."
Yan Jin sighed: "Now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying anything more, cousin. Just stay in the room and be under house arrest. Once His Highness calms down, the ban will naturally be lifted."
"I will never just watch my cousin marry that scheming bitch."
Zhao Yingying angrily took a pair of scissors and put them against her neck, saying sternly, "If you don't let me see my cousin today, I will die in front of you."
"Cousin, don't do anything stupid." Yan Jin was so scared that his face turned pale, and the guards were at a loss as to what to do.
Zhao Yingying forced herself to take a step outside. Seeing that no one dared to stop her, they had no choice but to follow her outside.
Zhao Yingying went out and saw that the fighting in the city was in full swing. She immediately dropped the scissors and ran towards the city. Yan Jin and his men were about to chase her when they suddenly saw a large group of people from the Pacification Office galloping over and blocking the way between Yan Jin and Zhao Yingying.
"How dare you attack the eldest son of the Duke of Rong's mansion?"
The leader's face turned grim as he drew his sword and pointed it at Yan Jin. Seeing Zhao Yingying running towards the east of the city, Yan Jin's expression became furious and he shouted at the general, "Asshole, what do you want to do?"
The man smiled sinisterly, "I, the Pacification Commissioner, shoulder the heavy responsibility of coastal defense. Naturally, I cannot stand by and watch you engage in a brawl within the city."
"Go arrest the people involved in the fight, why are you stopping me?" Yan Jin quickly drew his sword and said, "Get out of the way immediately."
"General Yan, please don't make things difficult for me."
The man showed no sign of weakness: "The pacification envoy has ordered that the troops stationed in the city must not move until the fighting is settled."
Yan Jin saw that the Pacification Commissioner was deliberately trying to stop him, and said in a deep voice, "That person just now was the only daughter of Princess Qining. If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"
The man glanced at the direction where Zhao Yingying fled and found that she had disappeared. Then he made way. Yan Jin led his men to chase after her, but there was no trace of Zhao Yingying at all.
