Chapter 122 This princess’ life is almost over

. “Ahhhhhhhh!” Xia Miaoyuan was frightened and burst into tears.

[What? It can’t be a ghost!]

[Help! Second brother! Sang Qi! Come quickly!]

The black shadow raised the long knife in his hand, stared at Xia Miaoyuan viciously, and shouted: "Monster! Die!"

As he said that, the long knife chopped towards Xia Miaoyuan.

In a hurry, Nanny Li grabbed the pillow and threw it at the black shadow.

The black shadow dodged, and the knife was deflected, and her body hit the bedpost.

Nanny Li quickly picked up Xia Miaoyuan and jumped off the bed.

The black shadow stood up, jumped over, raised the sharp knife and stabbed Xia Miaoyuan.

Xia Miaoyuan only felt a force of impact hitting her back.

[It’s over, is this princess destined to die young? 】

Xia Miaoyuan closed her eyes in despair.

However, she did not wait for the intense pain.

With a "bang", a small piece of shiny object bounced out.

The shadow stopped moving and stared at the knife blankly, only to see that the sharp tip of the knife was broken.

The shadow howled angrily, threw the knife aside, ran a few steps, and grabbed Li Ma's clothes.

She was like a bloodthirsty beast, knocking Li Ma to the ground with one punch, and snatched Xia Miaoyuan from Li Ma's arms.

Xia Miaoyuan used all her strength, kicking and struggling desperately.

But she was just a child less than one year old, and compared with a mad adult, the power gap was huge.

The black shadow grabbed Xia Miaoyuan's neck with two skinny hands.

"Die! Die! Die! You monster!" the black shadow roared.

"Kill monster, I am the Queen of Great Xia, hahahaha, only I am!"

Xia Miaoyuan felt a sharp pain in her neck and couldn't breathe. Her whole face and head were uncomfortable.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at the black shadow's face.

[Ah! It turned out to be the monster concubine! ]

Xia Miaoyuan was shocked. The one who broke into Kunning Palace in the middle of the night to assassinate her turned out to be Jiang Qiqiu who had been banished to the cold palace!

[Am I destined to die at the hands of the monster concubine? Am I not going to grow up? ]

Xia Miaoyuan felt that her vision was a little blurry, and a feeling of suffocation swept over her body.

At this time, Nanny Li supported her head and stood up with difficulty, shouting at the top of her voice: "Someone come! There is an assassin! Someone come quickly!"

While shouting, she picked up a vase, raised it high, and smashed it hard on Jiang Qiqiu's head.

With a "bang", the vase shattered on Jiang Qiqiu's head.

Jiang Qiqiu swayed twice, but the strength in her hands did not loosen at all.

She turned around and glared at Nanny Li fiercely, and blood flowed from her head.

In an instant, Jiang Qiqiu's face was covered with blood, and her devil-like face made her look particularly scary.

Nanny Li shuddered with fear.

At this time, the second prince supported his head with one hand, staggering in with a sword in his hand.

He raised the sword and stabbed Jiang Qiqiu's back fiercely.

"Ah!" Jiang Qiqiu howled in pain and turned to look at the second prince.

In an instant, Jiang Qiqiu's hand loosened its strength, and Xia Miaoyuan was thrown to the ground.

Jiang Qiqiu looked down at her chest, only to see a shiny sword tip piercing through her chest, and red liquid flowed along the wound.

She covered her wound with both hands and soon stained her clothes red.

"Only I am the queen, the queen of the Great Xia, hahahaha..." Jiang Qiqiu screamed wildly, but her voice became smaller halfway through.

"Bang!" Jiang Qiqiu fell straight to the ground.

"Are you okay, sister?" The second prince supported himself and came to Xia Miaoyuan.

Xia Miaoyuan covered her neck with her two small hands and coughed uncomfortably.

[Damn it, if it was any later, this princess would have died.]

Nanny Li had also recovered and held Xia Miaoyuan in her arms.

She could no longer hold back and burst into tears: "You scared me to death!"

At this time, several guards with swords ran in from outside.

The leader asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"

The second prince pointed to the body on the ground and said: "There is an assassin."

The guards went forward to check, and Jiang Qiqiu was already dead.

The guards went to Kunning Palace to check, and saw that the palace maids and eunuchs were all unconscious.

After an incense stick of time, the queen and Xia Zhengqi received the news that the princess had been assassinated.

Xia Zhengqi didn't care that he was still feverish, and rushed to Kunning Palace with the queen to see his daughter.

When the emperor and empress arrived, the palace maids and eunuchs had already been awakened and were kneeling in the courtyard with confused faces.

"Your Majesty, Empress, spare my life!" The palace maids kowtowed to the emperor and empress when they saw them coming.

The emperor and empress did not care about these things and went straight to see their daughter.

Xia Miaoyuan's bedroom was already a mess.

On the floor, there were knocked over chairs, broken porcelain pieces, quilts scattered on the floor, and a shocking pool of blood.

"Why is there blood!" When Xia Zhengqi saw the pool of blood on the floor, his body stiffened instantly, and his legs went weak, as if he had thought of the worst outcome.

Eunuch Debao immediately supported him.

Although the queen did not ask, she was also stunned when she saw the pool of blood, and covered her mouth in horror.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. This is the assassin's blood. The princess is unharmed." A guard reported.

The empress's expression eased after hearing this.

At this time, the second prince was resting in the empress's main room with the frightened Xia Miaoyuan in his arms.

The empress rushed in and saw their daughter intact with their own eyes. She cried with joy.

"I scared my mother to death..." The queen cried and hugged Xia Miaoyuan to her arms, kissing her daughter's face hard.

Xia Zhengqi couldn't help shedding tears, and opened his arms to hug his queen and daughter.

[Wuwuwu! Daddy, mother, I almost died just now. I was almost killed by that evil concubine.]

Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help crying.

Only after calming down did Xia Zhengqi and the queen straighten their faces and ask about the assassin.

"Who do you think the assassin is tonight?"

When Xia Zhengqi heard the three words Jiang Qiqiu from the second prince, he was shocked and confirmed again and again.

"Father, I am sure that the assassin is Jiang Qiqiu." The second prince looked serious.

The Queen and Xia Zhengqi looked at each other, both with disbelief on their faces.

"Your Majesty, Queen, this is the assassin's weapon." The head of the guards held the knife and showed it to the Emperor and Empress.

"Jiang Qiqiu was so weak, how could she come here to assassinate?" Xia Zhengqi looked at the long knife with a broken tip and frowned.

"Madame Li, tell me what happened." The Queen looked at Madam Li who was still in shock.

"After I and the little princess went to bed, I didn't know when I suddenly heard a deer calling. Later, I opened my eyes and saw that it was Jiang Qiqiu who came in with a knife."

Madam Li tried her best to control her emotions.

"She kept saying that she was the Queen of Great Xia and wanted to kill the evildoers."

"She looked really scary, like a madman, moving quickly and with great strength, totally different from before."

Xia Miaoyuan nestled in the Queen's arms and murmured: [That's right, that strong one, the evil concubine stabbed me from the back, the force was so strong that I was stabbed to death. ]
