Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

This young general of the Nan family rarely shows up. The number of people in Yujing City who have seen his true face can be counted on one’s fingers. How is the princess related to him?

"Princess, have you seen me before?" Nan Jingxing was also quite surprised.

Judging from Princess Changle's expression, it seems that this is not the first time she has seen him.

"At the Queen Mother's birthday banquet last time, the young general rescued Miss Lu. Do you still remember?"

Nan Jingxing thought about it and it seemed that there was such a thing.

"Yes, it turns out that the person next to Miss Lu that time was you, the princess."

He had just returned from the Yulin Cavalry training camp that day, and it happened to be the anniversary of his fiancée's death, so he was in a bad mood. He only attended the first half of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet and then found an excuse to slip away.

"My cousin has always remembered the general's kindness and wanted to come to thank you, but unfortunately I don't know your identity."

Jiang Xue's stiff lips finally showed a hint of smile.

"This is just a small matter, not worth mentioning. Princess, please tell Miss Lu not to take it to heart."

Nan Jingxing answered politely.

"I wonder if the Major General could take me to meet those bad guys who were captured?"

Jiang Xue's request made Nan Jingxing feel a little embarrassed. According to regulations, the bad guys caught by the Yulin Cavalry had to be reported to the emperor and wait for judgment. Before that, they could not contact with outsiders to prevent them from colluding with each other.

"Major General, these guys came for me and caused His Royal Highness Prince Gong to be seriously injured. I think His Royal Highness and I have the right to know why they want to harm us. I know the rules of the Imperial Guards. If the Major General is worried, I can ask you to go with me. Do you think it's okay?"

In this life, she swore to never do such soft-hearted and foolish things again. If others don't provoke her, she will naturally not cause trouble. But as long as someone dares to attack her, she must be prepared to bear the consequences.

After the thrilling incident at the horse farm and the assassination at the lantern festival, Jiang Xue felt an unusual sense of crisis. She had a hunch that these two incidents must be related, and the person behind them must be the same person.

"This... okay."

Nan Jingxing thought about it and nodded in agreement. After all, Xiao Zhan was his good friend, so of course he wanted to seek justice for his brother.

"Thank you, Major General."

Following Nan Jingxing, Jiang Xue came to the prison and looked at the dozen or so criminals imprisoned inside.

Their hands and feet were chained, and in the dead of winter, they were only wearing thin clothes with blood stains on them.

It was obvious that the Yulin Cavalry had tortured them.

"Princess, Major General, these guys are very stubborn. We have tried all kinds of punishments, but they just won't say a word."

The Yulin cavalry reported.

"It's okay, let me try."

It doesn't matter if she doesn't use torture instruments, she has plenty of ways to make them talk.

Jiang Xue stared at them as if she were a group of beasts, her eyes were cold and cruel.

Nan Jingxing left a few people behind and sent the rest to stand guard at the door.

"Before I take action, are there any of you willing to confess who sent you here?"

There was dead silence, and some of the criminals even spat at her with disdain.

Jiang Xue was not angry either, and a sneer appeared on her lips: "I'll give you a chance."

She took out a bamboo flute and blew a few notes gently. Soon, a rustling sound came from a corner of the prison.

The sound was very small at first, then it grew louder and louder.

"Old, rats, lots of rats."

In a short while, the criminals were surrounded by dense swarms of rats.

The rats' eyes glow an eerie red, making them look creepy.

The thugs who were so arrogant and domineering just now were now scared to death.

Nan Jingxing and his men were all stunned.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the hidden Princess Changle.

"Before these little guys get angry, I'll ask you one last time, who ordered you here?"

The gentle voice is like the big sister next door asking you what you want to eat today.

But to those criminals, the beautiful woman before them sounded like a devil in human skin.

"No, I don't know." One of them shouted loudly, hoping for a lucky break.

"Alas." Jiang Xue sighed regretfully: "You are the most handsome one, what a pity."

A shrill flute sounded, and the rats pounced on the man as if they had received an order, biting him madly with their sharp teeth.

The man's terrified screams, the sound of flesh being torn and his screams intertwined together to form the most cruel symphony.

The thug next to him watched helplessly as he was transformed from a living man into a pile of bones by rats.

There were still some uneaten tendons hanging on the bones, which frightened some of the timid ones so much that they fainted, while others couldn't help but feel nauseous and vomited on the spot.

Nan Jingxing had seen countless prisoners being tortured, but he had never seen such a horrifying scene.

The men behind him took two steps back unconsciously. The air was filled with the disgusting smell of vomit and blood, which made them feel nauseous.

"You all saw what happened to him. If anyone wants to be like him, just try."

Jiang Xue looked around, and everyone whose eyes passed by couldn't control their inner fear.

"I said, we all said, please don't kill us, please don't kill us."

The rest of the people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jiang Xue, begging for mercy. This woman was simply a devil. A devil.

"Major General, thank you so much for today." After coming out of the prison, Jiang Xue expressed her gratitude to Nan Jingxing again.

"If we have to say thank you, I, Nan Jingxing, should be the one to thank the princess. Your trip has saved us the Yulin Cavalry a lot of effort."

Although the method was a bit brutal, it finally pried open their mouths that had been unable to be pried open. This was a great help to Nan Jingxing.

"You are too kind, Major General." Jiang Xue smiled and waved her hand: "I still have to take care of the prince, so I will go back first."

He turned around, got on the carriage, and headed straight for Prince Gong's Mansion.

In the car, Jiang Xue recalled the confessions of the murderers, her fingers tightly grasping the hem of her skirt.

Lin Wan, you want to play, right? Then let's compete and see how miserable you cry in the end.

When Jiang Xue returned to the mansion, she saw Tieyi standing at the door with a livid face and a bloody square box in his hand.

"What's going on?"

The ominous premonition came to my mind again.

Jiang Xue took the box from Tieyi, opened it, and saw two little fingers lying inside.

From the shape of the nail on the little finger, she recognized it as Fudong and Xiaochun's.

"Who sent it?"

Jiang Xue suppressed her anger, stared at the two fingers in the box and asked Tieyi.

"They were sent by the Lin family." Tieyi clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "They said that Fudong and Xiaochun scared Madam Lin's horse, so the Lin family arrested them and punished them severely. I went to ask for them, but Lord Lin said that they were not from Prince Gong's Mansion. If you want the Lin Mansion to release them, you have to go to the Lin family in person to get them."
