These three were unlucky to run into her today. How could she let them go and spread rumors, putting her in any danger?
So, in the next instant, Xie Lingqin, who was standing still, suddenly leaped into the air and flew away.
With a swift movement, the knife fell.
The dagger sliced through the chests of all three men.
A trail of blood appeared, and the three of them collapsed to the ground simultaneously, dying instantly without even uttering a sound.
Xie Lingqin's hand holding the dagger trembled slightly, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood.
I just used up all my strength, which caused me to feel unwell.
We need to leave as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, on a tall building not far from here, a cool breeze blew by, and Yu Qingyi unconsciously glanced at his crotch... and then looked up at his chest.
"Mother, that was so clean and efficient, leaving no survivors at all!" Yu Qingyi suddenly exclaimed the next second, and then, with a swift movement, landed beside Xie Lingqin, who had only taken a few steps.
"The eldest daughter of the General's Mansion is indeed a woman who is just as capable as any man."
Xie Lingqin bit her lip and glanced at him, "If Prince Yi is free, he could perhaps deal with those three corpses from earlier."
"What?"
Are you scared?
"This young master is afraid?"
"Then you won't deal with it."
Yu Qingyi tossed a strand of hair behind her ear, her peach blossom eyes brimming with arrogance. "You wait." She then spoke something to someone in the shadows, and a moment later, a figure landed on the ground.
"It's been dealt with."
"yes."
After giving his instructions, Yu Qingyi felt something was amiss. Why should he help her? When he turned back to look at Xie Lingqin, he saw her wiping the blood off her dagger and already walking several steps away.
“Hey, isn’t this… the Crown Prince’s dagger?” Yu Qingyi looked at the exquisite dagger and grabbed Xie Lingqin.
Xie Lingqin struggled free and strode forward, saying, "The Crown Prince is mine."
"What? Hey, I said..."
"Could it be that Prince Yi is going to compensate me with silver?" Xie Lingqin was not feeling well at the moment and had little patience. She didn't even turn her head when she spoke.
Yu Qingyi...
What's wrong with this woman? And all she thinks about all day is money, nothing else.
Yu Qingyi was about to call out to Xie Lingqin when he saw that Xie Lingqin had already stopped and was looking ahead.
Ahead, about ten steps away from Xie Lingqin, stood a person.
Such a person has such a strong presence, like autumn wind and jade dew, with outstanding appearance and powerful aura, that even if you want to ignore them, you can't.
"Wow." Yu Quanyi's face lit up with a smile as he looked at the newcomer. "I knew you wouldn't just stand by and watch me get bullied. You must have come to help me."
Beneath the black backdrop, Yuwen Yao slightly raised his dark eyes. In that instant, even the bright moon in the sky seemed insufficient to rival the ethereal beauty of his dark gaze.
Yuwen Yao glanced at Yu Qingyi, then looked at Xie Lingqin and asked in a calm, even tone, "Do you want to die?"
Like snow melting from an iceberg, his eyes shone with a sinister brilliance, yet were so cold and devoid of any warmth.
Xie Lingqin's heart skipped a beat.
Why does the crown prince seem so angry?
Could it be that someone angered him, and he's looking at her to vent his frustration?
Xie Lingqin was unhappy; there were only two feasible options.
First, don't look, hide.
Second, eliminate him.
Of course, she can't do either of those things now, and more importantly, the other party knows she's been poisoned.
"Then, does the Crown Prince want to help me detoxify?" Xie Lingqin tried to force a smile onto her face.
Looking at Xie Lingqin's back, Yu Qingyi suddenly thought, "This woman is really shameless."
Should she ask Yuwen Yao to help her detoxify?
Dreaming big.
“If you don’t get the antidote within three months, you will surely die a violent death,” Yuwen Yao said calmly.
Xie Lingqin was calmer.
Oh!
She thought she had another six months.
I never imagined it would only last three months.
"It seems the Crown Prince has no intention of helping me detoxify. Then, I wonder..."
“If you were my subordinate, I might save you,” Yuwen Yao said again.
Xie Lingqin's heart clenched violently.
After so much maneuvering, the Crown Prince finally revealed his purpose.
He wants her to become his henchman?
No, or rather, it was used as a tool.
Beneath the seemingly peaceful surface of the world lies a turbulent undercurrent. Is she really going to be so foolish as to pledge allegiance to the Crown Prince?
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I know I am not capable of much, so I would rather not upset you." Xie Lingqin gave a slight bow, then raised her head and left from the other side of the alley.
As I passed by the Crown Prince, I felt the warm fragrance of pear blossoms, which brightened my mind and made my breathing easier.
Xie Lingqin suddenly stopped and turned around, just in time to meet the Crown Prince's beautiful and exquisite eyes, which were unusually cold and alluring. "Yes, thank you for the medicine that the Crown Prince placed by the window earlier."
The Crown Prince did not respond, but stared at her intently, making Xie Lingqin feel uneasy.
Clearly, she didn't do anything; she just didn't want to rely on anyone.
In her past life, she was a loner; in this life, she will not be bound by anyone's constraints either.
Although she owed the Crown Prince her life, that was not a reason for her to sell herself.
If all goes well, the antidote will be readily available.
Yuwen Yao turned slightly to look at the slender figure, a strange light flashing in his eyes, but there was no ripple of emotion. Instead, a faint, cold smile appeared on his lips.
"I've never seen a woman in my life dare to refuse you." Yu Qingyi walked over, and in his words, he seemed quite fond of Xie Lingqin. "She's quite handsome too."
"You were just cleaning up her mess." Yuwen Yao's cold words instantly wiped the smile off Yu Qingyi's face. Then, the playboy prince belatedly realized, "Ah, didn't you just say you were going to help me get revenge?"
