Chapter 241 Killing Prince Rong
Xiao Fuguang stumbled out of the prison door.
Xingyue supported her with a distressed look on her face.
"princess."
Liu Yue also came over.
"Princess, you have to hold on."
Xiao Fuguang's face was covered with tears.
"go home."
Walk to the cell door.
Then Prince Rong came over.
Looking at Xiao Fuguang's disheveled appearance, messy clothes and disheveled hair, Prince Rong looked very proud.
"The Imperial Aunt is worried about the Imperial Uncle. If she really cares, she can persuade the Imperial Uncle to hand over the military power as soon as possible, so that he can suffer less physical pain."
Xiao Fuguang looked at Prince Rong with hatred on his face.
"roll."
Then walked outside.
Prince Rong looked at her back as she left and wanted to continue making sarcastic remarks.
The guard stepped forward and bowed.
"Your Majesty, the Regent wishes to see you."
Prince Rong then walked towards the cell. It seemed that Xuanyuan Jing had figured it out. As long as he could get the military token from him, it would be easy to kill Xiao Fuguang.
Prince Rong entered the cell with a sense of pride and calculation. He saw that although Xuanyuan Jing looked pale and frail, his eyes still shone with a commanding majesty. Prince Rong spoke hypocritically.
"Uncle, have you figured it out? Handing over the military token earlier can save you from a lot of trouble."
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at him coldly.
"You may ask for the military token, but I have three conditions."
Prince Rong looked at him with a smug look on his face.
"Uncle, you can tell me what you think. I will report it to my father as appropriate."
Xuanyuan Jing spoke slowly.
"First, the Xuanyuan Imperial Family must never attack anyone from the Xiao Family. Second, the Emperor must treat the soldiers in the fiefdom with respect, regardless of past offenses. Third, I demand that Xiao Fuguang leave Xuanyuan."
Prince Rong heard the sarcasm and spoke.
"Three conditions, two of which are about the surname Xiao. Uncle, you are truly infatuated."
Xuanyuan Jing looked at him.
"If you agree, I will tell you where the military token is."
There was a glint of calculation in Prince Rong's eyes. Once you get the military token, you can die. By then, all the people in the Xiao family will be dead, and there will be nothing you can do.
"Okay, Uncle, I agree to the three conditions you proposed on behalf of my father."
Then step forward one step at a time.
"Where is the military token?"
Xuanyuan Jing looked up at him. Although he was kneeling, his noble and majestic aura did not diminish in the slightest.
"Come here, I'll tell you, that's the military order for 200,000 soldiers, and someone else got it..."
It is indeed necessary to be more cautious. Prince Rong stepped forward, squatted down, and moved closer to Xuanyuan Jing.
"Uncle, you can speak now."
Xuanyuan Jing leaned close to his ear.
"The military token is here..."
The hairpin in his hand suddenly pierced into Prince Rong's neck, and was quickly pulled out. A stream of blood spurted out, and Xuanyuan Jing inserted another hairpin.
Prince Rong opened his eyes wide and looked at Xuanyuan Jing in disbelief. He opened his mouth but could only let out a faint moan.
Blood gushed out from his neck, staining his luxurious robes red.
His body fell limply, his eyes filled with fear and unwillingness.
"Xuanyuan Jing, how dare you..."
Xuanyuan Jing looked at the fallen Prince Rong with a triumphant smile on his face.
"Remember to apologize to the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery when you meet her."
Xiao Fuguang returned to the Regent's Palace.
Seeing her fragile appearance, An Ning hurried forward.
"Sister-in-law, how is my brother?"
Xiao Fuguang sat down with Liu Yue's support.
"Your brother deceived me so much."
An Ning was stunned when she heard this.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean? How could my brother lie to you?"
Xiao Fuguang leaned back in his chair, tears rolling out from the corners of his eyes.
An Ning spoke anxiously from the side.
"Sister-in-law, what happened? Can you tell me?"
Xiao Fuguang closed his eyes and spoke.
"Liu Yue, go to the Regent's study and bring me what's in the drawer."
After hearing this, Liu Yue hurried towards the study.
The divorce papers were brought to him soon.
"princess."
Xiao Fuguang took it and opened it.
It was confirmed that it was indeed a divorce agreement.
"Okay, okay, Xuanyuan Jing, you really have a very thorough plan."
An Ning took the divorce letter and looked at it, her pupils dilated instantly.
"how so?"
"My brother actually wants to divorce my sister-in-law."
Xiao Fuguang leaned back in his chair with his head tilted back.
"He wrote this in advance. He asked me to take you far away..."
"He never even asked me if I was willing, An Ning. He was poisoned. He said he didn't have much time to live. He asked us to leave. He lied to me. He lied to me from the very beginning. He tricked me into falling in love with him, a dying man, and then abandoned me..."
An Ning felt like she was struck by lightning and almost fell down. Fortunately, Xingyue helped her up.
She murmured and cried.
"how so?"
"This shouldn't be the case. How could my brother be poisoned? When was he poisoned? Why didn't you tell me?"
Xiao Fuguang slowly opened his eyes, his gaze was empty and sad, as if all his strength had been drained away along with the tears.
"He's such a liar. All his gentleness and consideration are fake."
Upon hearing this, An Ning knelt in front of Xiao Fuguang and reached out to grab her arm tightly.
"Sister-in-law, dear sister-in-law, I beg you, please don't give up on my brother, okay? Please save him, only you can save him. I have been protected for so many years, and I don't have anyone to teach me well. My brother can only rely on sister-in-law... An Ning, please don't give up on my brother, okay?"
"I know that my brother lied to you and hurt your heart, but sister-in-law, my brother's love and concern for you are also real. Please don't give up on him, okay? Is there anything An Ning can do? Sister-in-law, just tell me. Even if it means going through mountains of swords and seas of fire, An Ning is willing to go through it as long as it can save my brother."
Save? How? He had already planned how to save her. Xiao Fuguang only felt a sharp pain in his chest, and even found it difficult to breathe.
At this time, Wen Ying walked in and bowed with a look of frustration.
"princess!"
An Ning stood up hurriedly and spoke anxiously.
"Wen Ying, how is it?"
"Have those ministers agreed to save my brother?"
Hearing this, he spoke helplessly.
"Princess, those ministers said that it can only be delayed for half a month at most..."
An Ning fell to the ground after hearing this.
“Ban Yue, Ban Yue’s army simply can’t make it in time…”
Then he crawled over and pulled Xiao Fuguang's sleeve.
"Sister-in-law, don't give up on my brother. Please tell me what I should do, okay? Sister-in-law..."
Xiao Fuguang stood up slowly, feeling dizzy and almost falling down. Liu Yue supported her in time.
"Princess An Ning, please stop forcing my young lady. The Regent has written a letter of divorce for her. She is no longer your sister-in-law..."
Xiao Fuguang calmed himself down and raised his hand to signal Liu Yue to stop talking.
"An Ning, go find the ladies who received my amulets and tell them that they owe me a favor. I don't need their husbands to rescue the Regent. I just need to buy some time."
"Liu Yue, prepare the carriage and go to the Imperial Master's Mansion."
