"What are you talking about? You're just a coward, Bai Lishen. I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person! Why did I marry Chunling to you in the first place?" Ma Qingyi's voice was trembling.
"Qingyi, I..."
"Shut up! I tell you, I won't let him go, absolutely not!" Ma Qingyi retracted the sword in his hand and turned away.
Bai Lishen sat dejectedly on the chair, holding his forehead. Suddenly, he saw a figure falling in front of him. Thinking it was Ma Qingyi who had returned, he stood up excitedly and asked, "Qing... Yufeng?"
Mo Yufeng looked at him coldly, "Where's Ma Qingyi?"
"Yufeng, are you... here looking for Qingyi?" Bai Lishen looked at him awkwardly. When he saw a hint of coldness in his eyes, he lowered his head in fear.
"Bai Lishen! Where is Ma Qingyi?" Mo Yufeng unexpectedly said it again with patience.
"She... should go find Zhang Handuo!" Bai Lishen said helplessly with his head down.
I'm afraid Mo Yufeng should already know everything. If I keep it a secret, I would be being disloyal!
After hearing this, Mo Yufeng turned around and left.
Prime Minister's Mansion
"Zhang Handuo, come out!" Ma Qingyi rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion with a sword, and the people at the door could not stop her at all.
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, someone come and protect the Prime Minister!" The people in the mansion shouted in horror.
Ma Qingyi stood in the yard and saw Zhang Handuo standing at the door, surrounded by people.
Ma Qingyi sneered, "I'm only looking for Zhang Hanguo, everyone else leave!"
"Your Highness the Princess has lived in Moyu Country for a long time. Don't you know that the princess of Baihan Country treats others with gentleness and soft words?" Zhang Handuo's face was very calm, and he was not afraid of her at all.
"Gentle whispers? I have never known what that is! I only know that if you kill someone, you must pay with your life!" Ma Qingyi drew out the sword and rushed forward.
Suddenly, everyone around Zhang Hanguo retreated to the side. Zhang Hanguo took out a sword from behind him, blocked Ma Qingyi's sword, and sneered, "Why, Your Highness the Princess seems surprised?"
Zhang Handuo pushed hard, and Ma Qingyi staggered back two steps, looking at him with a frown.
"Ma Qingyi, saying that you are the princess of Baihan Kingdom is really an insult to the title!" Zhang Handuo said coldly, then threw the sword in his hand to the ground and walked aside.
Ma Qingyi stood there, her hand holding the sword trembling a little, and suddenly saw a man walking out of the door, holding a big knife in his hand, and grinning disgustingly, "Your Highness, you haven't forgotten me, have you?"
"You..." Ma Qingyi looked at him in surprise, unable to believe it.
How come he didn't die?
"Didn't you die a long time ago?" Ma Qingyi asked in horror.
"It's really all thanks to Her Royal Highness the Princess. If it weren't for Her Royal Highness the Princess, I wouldn't have been able to meet the Prime Minister!" Meng Hulie laughed lewdly.
Ma Qingyi glanced at him coldly, then looked at Zhang Hanguo. "How dare you harbor a criminal! You were even called the most loyal by the late king! You are the one who has disgraced that title!"
"When the previous king was alive, I was loyal because we had a wise monarch! What a pity that the current monarch is not only incompetent in government affairs, but also obsessed with a maid! It's really shameful. Since he can't push the country to a more prosperous place, what's the point of keeping him around!" Zhang Hanguo grinned, feeling that what he said was justified!
"Haha...you are so arrogant. Who do you think you are? You disobeyed the king, harbored evil intentions, and once forged an imperial decree to kill the queen. These crimes are enough for you to die!" Ma Qingyi shouted angrily. Burning with rage, he rushed forward with a sword in his hand, and stood in front of Zhang Handong with a knife in his hand.
"Princess, your opponent is me!" Meng Hulie laughed.
"You are a defeated general, yet you still dare to be so presumptuous in front of me!" Ma Qingyi suddenly glanced at him, turned around, and slashed the sword across Meng Hulie's face, leaving a blood mark.
"Your Highness the Princess really doesn't give me any face at all! Don't blame me for being rude!" Meng Hulie widened his eyes and chopped down with a knife. Ma Qingyi was stunned for a second and quickly picked up the sword to defend herself. However, she didn't expect Meng Hulie's knife to be fast and fierce. In addition, men are stronger than women, so Ma Qingyi was pushed back a long distance!
"I can't take it anymore!" Meng Hulie laughed sarcastically, "The princess beat me so badly back then!"
"...When did you meet Zhang Handuo? He has been in prison all the time!" Ma Qingyi seemed to have no strength at all. Looking at Meng Hulie who was still full of energy, she couldn't help feeling nervous. If she fought hard, she would definitely lose. In order to buy time to give herself a break, Ma Qingyi asked him other questions.
"Remember the last time the princess knocked me to the ground?..."
------
"Stop moving around. Your illness hasn't healed yet. What if it comes back again?" Bai Li frowned and looked at Ma Qingyi who was spinning around desperately with the sword, and said worriedly.
"It's okay, if you die, you die. You will die sooner or later. Why not do everything you want to do!" Ma Qingyi ignored him and continued to practice sword, sweating profusely.
"Forget it, I don't care about you anymore. You think I'm nagging. Remember, drink some water when you are tired and don't work so hard!" Bai Lishen said and turned to leave. After taking a few steps, he turned around and looked at Ma Qingyi with concern.
Ma Qingyi practiced sword quietly, and later she was so tired that she fell to the ground. After a while, she slowly stood up and walked to the table to rest. Just as she drank a sip of water, she heard a cry for help.
Ma Qingyi walked towards the sound with her body stiff, and saw a crying woman being pinned down by a burly man, who was still cursing the woman. Ma Qingyi looked at the woman carefully, and she seemed more and more familiar.
That is...
She had seen it before, and she said she had been here for two years!
Ma Qingyi shook her head vigorously. She couldn't remember, so she decided to forget it. However, the woman seemed very reluctant...
"Stop!" Ma Qingyi said coldly, holding the sword against the man's back.
The man stood up and looked at Ma Qingyi with a lewd smile, "Hey, another beauty is here!"
The woman who was pinned under him quickly climbed up and cried, "Princess, save me, save me!"
"How dare you! Who are you to bully people in the palace!" Ma Qingyi's sword slowly pierced into the man's chest.
The man pursed his lips and gripped the tip of his sword. "So you are the princess, you really are extraordinary!"
Seeing his disgusting lewd smile, Ma Qingyi felt nauseous. She turned around and kicked the man to the ground, "You are not from the palace, who are you?"
"I...ha, I am Meng Hulie, the third leader of Han Meng! You dare to kill me?" Meng Hulie sneered and looked at the sword in Ma Qingyi's hand.
"Well, this princess is just looking for someone to practice with. If you defeat me, I will let you go. If you lose, I will tear you into pieces and throw you into the pond to feed the fish!" Ma Qingyi retracted her sword and said coldly.
