Yelu Sage carefully examined Ren Yaoqi for a few times before laughing. He asked tentatively, "Is the young lady bluffing? Sage has lived in the palace for so long that he's well aware of its defenses. The one guarding outside today is Deputy General Zhou Cheng, but it's hard to say if he's still alive. As for his guards, they're probably all down by now."
Ren Yaoqi ignored her.
Yelusage continued, "Does the young lady know who did it?"
Yelu Sager had barely finished speaking when a commotion erupted outside, as if a large crowd of people were suddenly pouring in towards Zhaoning Palace.
Ren Yaoqi and Yelu Sager were both drawn to the noise outside, until a loud male voice called out, "Princess Yelu? Are you in Zhaoning Palace?"
Yelu Sager smiled widely upon hearing this. She winked at Ren Yaoqi playfully, "The one I'm waiting for has arrived. Madam, I'm afraid the one you're waiting for won't be here."
Before Ren Yaoqi could say anything, Concubine Yun said coldly, "Xiao Jingyue, that evil creature! How dare he..."
Xiao Jingyue and his men controlled Zhou Cheng's men and surrounded the entire palace. He had endured for so many years and pretended to be sick for so many days, just waiting for this day.
At this moment, Xiao Jingyue stood outside the Zhaoning Palace, looking at the open palace door and the three words "Zhaoning Palace" on the door plaque for a while, with a comfortable smile on his lips, and then he waved lazily behind him.
Two men who looked like servants pushed a woman to the side of Xiao Jingyue. The woman's hair was a little disheveled and she looked disheveled. But the look she gave Xiao Jingyue was filled with constant disgust and hatred.
Xiao Jingyue turned his head and looked at her and smiled. He gently pinched the woman's chin, and his tone was very gentle: "My wife, look at where this is? Haven't you always wanted to live here? Today, your husband will fulfill your wish and even let you die here."
Xiao Jingyue's words made Yan Ningshuang shiver uncontrollably. Her face turned pale and she was very scared, but she was unwilling to show her weakness in front of Xiao Jingyue. She forced herself to look at him coldly without saying a word.
Yan Ningshuang still hasn't figured out why Xiao Jingyue, who had been poisoned, suddenly woke up today and looked fine.
Xiao Jingyue gently patted Yan Ningshuang's face, smiling playfully, "Don't be afraid. You gave me such a great gift, and I've remembered it all." Seeing the fear in Yan Ningshuang's eyes that could not be concealed, Xiao Jingyue smiled again, then pointed at Zhaoning Palace and said, "Do you know what this place is? You only know that this is where your good Xiao Lang lives, but you don't know that Zhaoning Palace is actually the residence of every heir to the Yanbei Palace. The King of Yanbei and the Princess told a huge lie, treating everyone in the world as fools. As for that poor prince who was brought to the capital as a hostage, he is nothing but a joke."
Yan Ningshuang looked at Xiao Jingyue in shock when she heard this.
Xiao Jingyue didn't look at her. He just looked up at the gate of Zhaoning Palace, with an unknown fanaticism in his eyes.
"But this is where I'll live from now on."
Xiao Jingyue curled his lips, then pulled Yan Ningshuang into the Zhaoning Palace, and the dozen or so guards he brought with him followed him in. Yan Ningshuang was dragged by Xiao Jingyue, stumbling as he walked, but Xiao Jingyue acted as if he didn't see anything and directly pulled him to the door of the main palace.
