Upon hearing the screams, Ye Lisheng rushed forward immediately.
Just as I was in surprise, he suddenly gave me a bear hug: "Are you alright?"
"Is there anything that's bothering you?"
I could clearly feel that his whole body was trembling.
Is this the "Ice Prince" Ye Lisheng that people talk about?
I couldn't help but wonder if I had mistaken someone for someone else.
"I'm fine."
"I'm so glad you're alright, I'm so glad you're alright!" I felt relieved, as if I had survived a disaster.
Suddenly, a wail came from under the bed, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere.
"I...I have something to do!!!"
...
We tied the four people up and left them in a corner. Under their clothes were countless needle marks, but we couldn't see any other traces.
Why are you hiding in my house? What do you want?
I held a leather whip in my hand, looking extremely fierce.
"Pah! If you've got the guts, let me go and fight you one-on-one. What's with all this petty nonsense?"
"Oh, I didn't realize you had such a bad temper!"
"You think I'm going to be the Spirit Emperor in the future?"
When I heard this, I found it quite funny. Although everyone has dreams, I couldn't help but laugh at her.
"My eldest sister is not only beautiful, but she also has beautiful ideas!"
Ye Lisheng frowned, and the chill emanating from her body made people feel a little scared.
"Are you here for the imperial edict?" he asked coldly.
"Your Highness, didn't you come here for the imperial edict as well?" the man asked in return.
"Moreover, the imperial edict is in Boss Qiu's hands."
"edict?"
"How come I don't know anything about it? What imperial edict?"
The woman laughed: "Stop pretending at a time like this."
"Ye Lisheng, did you approach me also because of the imperial edict they mentioned?"
I don't know why my heart suddenly ached, and I couldn't care about anything else but want to know what he was thinking.
He didn't speak, but looked into my eyes and said, "I'll explain later."
"Hahaha!" the woman burst into wild laughter: "Hurry up and hand over the imperial edict!"
"Snap!" A crisp sound rang out. For some reason, it felt like a fire was burning inside me. The woman stared at me with wide eyes and an incredulous expression.
"Once I ascend the throne, I will tear you to pieces."
I turned to leave, but Ye Lisheng grabbed me: "Where are you going?"
I angrily shoved his hand away: "Mind your own business!"
Just as she reached the door, she heard a man scream. It turned out that Ye Lisheng, unable to contain her anger, had kicked the man in that embarrassing spot.
He kept walking and walking, not knowing how far he had gone, and looked back at the empty surroundings: "Is he a blockhead? Why didn't he catch up?"
Suddenly, a gust of wind rose up, whipping up yellow sand several meters high, and the veil covering her face was blown away without her noticing.
Just then, I felt a chill down my spine, and as I instinctively turned around, I felt something sharp pressing against my back.
"Don't move!" came the man's deep voice. "If you dare to move, this sword will pierce through your back."
"Brother, let's talk this over. How much silver do you want?" Although I tried to remain calm, I could still hear the tremor in Weiwei's voice.
"Hahaha!" Laughter from the other men rang out, seemingly mocking my ignorance.
Judging from the situation, it's not just one group coming; we just saw one wave off and another one arrives. My life really is worth a lot.
"We don't want money."
"So what do you want?"
"We'll take your life!" the man suddenly said fiercely.
He slowly turned to face me, and when he first saw me, I saw a flash of shock in his eyes.
The man stroked his chin, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over me.
"They look so alike, almost exactly the same."
"What do you mean exactly the same?" I was completely confused by what he said.
He seemed to have discovered something amusing, and said with a playful smile, "To spare you the regret of dying, I'll mercifully tell you that someone who looks exactly like you is paying to take your life."
"But if you tell me where the imperial edict is, I'll spare your life."
"Someone who looks just like me!" The truth is about to slowly surface, and I'll soon find out who that person is.
Suddenly a sharp sword came flying at me. The man seemed to sense it and deflected it, knocking the sword off my neck.
Ye Lisheng was galloping towards me on horseback, and he didn't look too good.
Who are you?
He looked very angry, and before the men in black could react, he swung his sword and several of them fell at my feet.
"Pah!" The leader seemed very angry and spat on the ground.
"The Prince of Anyang, is that right!"
"I've come to meet you today."
As she spoke, she and Ye Lisheng began to fight.
Ye Lisheng, as expected of someone who had been through many battles, dealt with those people in no time.
With a dark expression, he got off his horse and tried to pull me away.
I stubbornly shook off his hand: "Don't touch me."
"It's dangerous here, now is not the time to argue."
"Why would Your Highness choose to kill me to silence me in order to get close to me with the imperial edict?"
“I am not here for the imperial edict; I have never cared for it.”
"Hmph?" I laughed coldly, as if mocking his hypocrisy.
"Everyone wants to be the emperor, Your Highness, don't you want to be too?"
His face changed color, and I could clearly see the seven colors of the rainbow shifting across his complexion.
