Si Jin insisted on carrying the plum branch and walked step by step to the palace gate before getting into the carriage.
Eunuch Xia served him attentively, draping a cloak over his shoulders and placing a hand warmer in his hands.
Finally, he even went to great lengths to follow the carriage back to the Fourth Prince's mansion.
Inside the mansion, Nangong Liuer, dressed neatly, paced anxiously in the courtyard.
After her tryst with Ning Sizhen was discovered, the old emperor originally intended to have her arrested and imprisoned in the Imperial Prison.
Only thanks to Ning Sizhen's intercession was he able to escape this ordeal and return to the Prince's Mansion to seek help from Sijin.
But it's been two days already, why hasn't Ning Sijin returned yet?
Could that good-for-nothing who's about to die be of any use in a critical moment?
Just then, Si Jin was helped in by Eunuch Xia.
Nangong Liuer's eyes lit up instantly, and she rushed forward in a hurry.
They didn't care about Si Jin's frostbitten legs, nor did they ask how serious his illness was.
She couldn't wait to ask, "Jingjing, has His Majesty relented? Is he willing to let me go?"
Si Jin raised her eyes, her beautiful peach blossom eyes fixed on Nangong Liuer's hopeful eyes, her smile gentle.
"No, I'm tired of kneeling, and I don't want you to live."
One sentence instantly pierced the expectation in Nangong Liuer's eyes.
Vanished without a trace, leaving no room for mercy.
The woman's eyes dimmed, and her face paled visibly.
At the same time, I shivered uncontrollably.
What happened?
Ning Sijin is the most loyal and righteous person.
Grateful for her care, he always did her best to please her.
How could they suddenly disregard her life?
Nangong Liuer couldn't believe it and tugged at Si Jin's sleeve again: "No! Jin Jin! I..."
With Eunuch Xia beside her, she restrained herself slightly: "Your Highness, I have taken care of you for so long, you can't just abandon me!"
Disregarding a woman's dignity, Si Jin bluntly retorted, "But it was Ning Sizhen who slept with you, not me. I don't want this bright green."
"You can fend for yourself."
Those two seemingly casual words were like a death sentence from hell; one sentence sealed her fate.
Nangong Liuer was so frightened that her eyes turned red and tears were about to flow.
A few days ago, she heard from the maid in the manor that the prince had been aloof from people for a long time and had recently become somewhat gloomy.
Now it seems that this is not sinister at all, he doesn't even care about her life or death, he has clearly gone mad!
Nangong Liuer murmured, unconsciously revealing her inner thoughts: "Ning Sijin...you've gone completely mad..."
Si Jin took a couple of steps without paying attention, but upon hearing this, she turned back to look at her: "What did you say?"
Seeing that her pleas were useless, Nangong Liuer simply revealed her true nature and cursed, "I said you're a madman!"
"madman?"
Si Jin pondered the two characters for a moment and was quite satisfied.
He asked, "Are you referring to... me?"
The boy's eyes were cold, which made Nangong Liuer shiver.
Ning Sijin...why does she have such a terrifying gaze?
“That’s right. I’m a madman.” With that, Si Jin tossed the hand warmer away.
It hit Nangong Liuer directly in the stomach.
It slammed the person into the artificial lake beside them.
"Ahhhh—"
Nangong Liuer screamed and her entire body smashed through the thin ice and fell into the cold water.
It was as if his yang energy had been suddenly drained, and his face instantly turned ashen white.
But she could at least swim, so she began to struggle desperately and swim towards the shore.
It's even waterproof?
Seeing this, Si Jin's eyes flickered, and she sent out a divine power, creating a vortex in the water droplet.
They then forcibly pulled the people who had just floated to the surface back to the bottom of the water.
