Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 373 Convinced
Hey, this was going much faster than he expected.
It seems that Miss Lu really has a strong desire to survive.
Xiao Huan asked the attendant to push him to the main hall and said casually, "Go and invite Miss Lu in. Don't neglect her."
Not long after, Lu Linyi appeared in the main hall led by his attendants.
She placed her hands neatly in front of her, and when facing Xiao Huan, she tried her best to avoid looking into his snake-like cold vertical pupils.
Xiao Huan looked at her, who was obviously afraid but trying hard to hold on, and couldn't help but reveal a hint of sarcasm on his face.
He has always looked down on the weak, and Lu Linyi happens to be one of them.
"Miss Lu is a distinguished guest of Prince Huan's Mansion. I wonder what brings you to my humble abode?"
He looked at her playfully, as if he were admiring a frightened little animal.
"I want to make a deal with you."
Lu Linyi plucked up her courage and faced the pair of eyes that frightened her.
"Oh? What deal, let's hear it?"
He casually picked up a cup of tea next to him, opened the lid, and nonchalantly fiddled with the tea leaves floating on the water.
He was intoxicated by the feeling of being begged. He just liked to see others begging him humbly and tremblingly.
"I can help you destroy Prince Gong's Mansion and get rid of Jiang Xue, as long as you don't torture me or the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion after you marry me."
Lu Linyi thought for a long time and finally mustered up the courage to state his purpose.
After saying this, Xiao Huan did not respond for a long time. The long silence was like a mountain, pressing down on Lu Linyi's heart and making her feel suffocated. Just when she was about to give up and collapse, Xiao Huan put down the teacup.
The crisp sound of the teacup hitting the table frightened Lu Linyi so much that he trembled all over.
"Okay, I accept this deal, but there is one thing I have to change. Miss Lu won't object, right?"
"You say." Lu Linyi took a deep breath, trying to calm his frightened heart, and responded.
"This woman Jiang Xue has to be dealt with by me personally." This woman has to be dealt with by him alone.
After hearing this, Lu Linyi had a complicated expression. He was stunned for a long time before he slowly nodded: "I understand."
Then, she handed a key to Xiao Huan respectfully with both hands: "This is taken from Jiang Xue. I heard that it is the key to the military supply warehouse. A batch of military resources has just arrived in the warehouse. The emperor specially asked Prince Gong to keep it and prepare to transport it to the front line.
If this batch of resources is lost, Prince Gong will definitely be in trouble. I know that the emperor has been looking for trouble with Prince Gong, but unfortunately he has never found an opportunity. This time, with this excuse, Prince Gong’s mansion will definitely be ruined. "
Her hands holding the keys were trembling slightly, but Xiao Huan thought she was afraid of him and didn't think much about it.
Taking the key, he showed a sinister smile: "It's different with an insider, and things go more smoothly. Miss Lu, your key came at the right time, and I am very satisfied."
The disappearance of arms is a big deal, especially since these arms are urgently needed at the front line.
Xiao Zhan, your good days are over this time.
It was late at night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. Xiao Huan led a group of people quietly from Prince Huan's Mansion and headed straight for the military supply depot.
When they arrived at the door of the armory, the soldiers stood in two rows, in uniform, holding torches to light the way for Xiao Huan.
With the help of his attendants, Xiao Huan came to the door of the armory and easily opened it with the key given by Lu Linyi.
"Get started! Move it for me."
As the door opened, the piles of weapons and equipment inside came into view.
At Xiao Huan's order, his soldiers began to move the supplies.
Just after unloading a bundle of supplies, suddenly, dozens of arrows were shot from all directions.
A dozen soldiers who were carrying the objects had their backs pierced with arrows in an instant. They fell to the ground without even having time to shout.
"Who is it?" Xiao Huan was terrified.
Xiao Huan suddenly turned his wheelchair and shouted around.
"Rebellious son." An angry roar sounded, and the sound of the crown tassels colliding became clearer and clearer. Under the light of the torches, the figure of Emperor Beiling gradually appeared.
His right arm was wrapped in white cloth and stained with blood. His eyes were wide open and he stared at Xiao Huan who was sitting in a wheelchair with burning anger, as if he wanted to tear him into pieces.
Behind him followed a group of court officials, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Huan.
Nan Jingxing protected him on his right, Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xue stood on his left, and Lu Linyi, who gave him the key, stood close to Jiang Xue. They looked so intimate, and it didn't seem like they were going to bring Jiang Xue down.
Except for the four of them, everyone else's faces were filled with disbelief, and some were even filled with anger.
"Your Majesty, you saw it with your own eyes. What His Royal Highness Prince Gong and Changle said is true. Xiao Huan was beaten with a stick and had his legs broken in the hunting grounds. He held a grudge against you and not only sent someone to assassinate you and harm your body, but also stole arms and plotted against your will. If such evil deeds are not severely punished, your Majesty will be uneasy and your subjects will be even more uneasy."
Jiang Xue glanced at Xiao Huan coldly, then bowed to Emperor Beiling and said.
"You evil creature, how dare you kill your father and usurp the throne? Come, drag this evil creature away. Today, I will clean up the family in front of all the officials."
Emperor Beiling was furious, his entire face and neck turned red, like a volcano erupting.
He pointed at Xiao Huan and roared that he would kill this rebellious son. Nan Jingxing immediately sent two Yulin soldiers to unceremoniously pull Xiao Huan off the wheelchair and drag him in front of Emperor Beiling.
During the whole process, Xiao Huan did not resist at all, until he fell to the ground and felt the pain on his palms being rubbed by stones, which made him completely sober.
This woman tricked me again.
He raised his head, staring at the arrogant Jiang Xue, then looked at the expressions of the three people beside her. Xiao Huan suddenly realized that the sisterly feud and the deal were all fake.
This was a play directed by Jiang Xue, just to get rid of him.
"Assassination? Stealing arms? And plotting rebellion? Hahahaha, stop kidding me, Jiang Xue, if you want to frame me, you should also consider whether you have the ability to do so. If you want to pin these crimes on me, do you have any evidence? Ah?"
Xiao Huan's laughter was creepy, and his strange vertical pupils flashed with madness. He supported himself on the ground with both hands and raised his body with force. His strength was so great that even the two Yulin soldiers pressing on his shoulders could not stop him.
"Get out of here." Xiao Huan was annoyed and swung his hand back vigorously, shaking off the soldiers who were escorting him.
He grabbed a tree with his fingers and used all his strength to "stand up" little by little.
He chose a sturdy old tree with a rough trunk covered with hard bark. As his legs were weak, he had to rely on the strength of his hands to support his entire body.
Two of his ten fingernails had been scraped off by the bark, and his face was covered in blood.
However, in order not to be looked down upon by Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xue, he endured the severe pain and propped up his body against the old tree, allowing himself to "stand" and face Jiang Xue and his opponents.
"How dare Changle talk nonsense in front of the emperor about such a serious matter as treason?" Facing Xiao Huan's questioning, Jiang Xue remained calm.
"Since His Royal Highness Prince Huan wants to see the evidence, Changle will naturally convince you."
