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

"Thank you for your hard work, senior brother. When you come back, I will cook a big meal for you myself." Jiang Xue said with a smile, a cunning light in her eyes.

When Si Ruochen thought of her cooking skills, he couldn't help but shudder. Her cooking skills were simply disastrous. Even the usually calm master turned pale after tasting it, not to mention other people.

"Forget it, just prepare a few bottles of good wine for me." After Si Ruochen said this, he tapped the ground lightly with his toes and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"Senior brother, you are really..." Jiang Xue did not feel embarrassed by Si Ruochen's teasing. Instead, she smiled even more brightly and continued to pay attention to the changes on the battlefield.

Sure enough, with the help of Si Ruochen and the disciples of Shuoyue Sect, the spies of Linglong Pavilion quickly turned the situation around.

After all, the martial arts sects had diverse means and were smart and flexible. They quickly formed a tacit understanding with Linglong Pavilion, joined forces to fight against the Prince's Mansion Guards and the Mohist Army, and gradually gained the upper hand.

"It's getting late, we should leave." Jiang Xue said softly, her eyes glancing at the Zhucheng army slowly approaching not far away.

These soldiers had been lying in ambush nearby, ready to take over the scene after Shangguan Jin eliminated Linglong Pavilion.

Now they feel the time is right and start taking action.

Although the two sides are currently evenly matched, once the garrison joins the battle, their situation will become extremely unfavorable.

Therefore, leaving before the enemy is completely surrounded is the only option.

Xiao Zhan nodded in agreement, then took out a flare from his waist and pulled the fuse hard. In an instant, a dazzling red light burst out in the sky.

Seeing this familiar signal, the people in Linglong Pavilion immediately understood, exchanged glances, and then quickly prepared for evacuation based on the terrain.

Noticing the direction of the signal, Shangguan Jin only caught a glimpse of a dark shadow rushing across the hillside. He immediately ordered his men to chase it, but before they could take a few steps, they were blocked by the dense venomous snakes in front of them.

Because this place is dark and humid, it is very suitable for snakes to survive. Jiang Xue took advantage of this and summoned a group of larger snakes, effectively hindering the advance of the pursuers.

Anyone who attempts to cross the snake array will suffer a fatal blow, with the snake venom quickly spreading through the body, causing difficulty breathing and even death.

Not only the place where they fought with Shangguan Jin, but also the road leading here was covered with swarms of snakes, which bought Linglong Pavilion and Shuoyue Gate precious time to escape.

"Jiang Xue..." Shangguan Jin swung his sword to cut off a poisonous snake that attacked him, and angrily read out the name. This opponent was too difficult.

At this moment, a guard captain reported in panic: "Your Highness, General Mo was bitten by a poisonous snake and fell down."

Shangguan Jin looked back and saw Mo Chenjun lying on the ground with his hands on his chest, surrounded by the chaotic Mo family army.

"Retreat, send General Mo back for treatment first." Shangguan Jin put away his sword, gave the order decisively, and led the team away from this troubled place.

In fact, Mo Chenjun was only poisoned by a mild paralyzing toxin, which would not endanger his life.

Xiao Zhan's worry was written on his face. Jiang Xue comforted him softly, "If we don't do this, General Mo may not be able to escape this time."

"I understand." Xiao Zhan nodded and turned his gaze to her, "Thank you, Xiaoxue."

“You’re welcome. I know how important he is to you.” Xiaoxue knew very well that helping his friends was helping himself. If Mo Chenjun was punished because of his negligence, Yun Che would also feel uneasy.

"I will send someone to deliver the antidote to the Mo family later. In half an hour, General Mo will be back to normal."

At the same time, in the Prince's Mansion, Jiang Chen paced back and forth anxiously. He was worried about Xiaoxue's safety.

However, at this moment, his inner strength was sealed and he could not use his martial arts, and there were heavily guarded troops outside the door, so he had no way of escaping.

"All of you, please leave." Shangguan Jin's voice came from outside the door, interrupting Jiang Chen's steps, and his eyes became sharp.

"Huai Chen, your sister is really a tricky person." Shangguan Jin raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he walked in, and felt a little relieved when he saw Jiang Chen.

"What did you do to Xiaoxue?" Jiang Chen asked coldly.

"Why don't you ask her what she did to me?" Shangguan Jin walked forward with a bit of joking and quickly closed the distance between the two.

Shangguan Jin put his arm around Jiang Chen's waist and held him tightly in his arms. Feeling the touch of the other's tense muscles, his heartbeat accelerated, and he whispered in Jiang Chen's ear, his breath hot: "Huai Chen, don't you care about me at all?"

"Let go!" Jiang Chen pressed Shangguan Jin's chest with his right elbow, and accurately hit his acupoints with his left hand.

Although he had lost his internal strength, his basic fighting skills were still there, and coupled with the knowledge of human acupoints that he had learned since childhood, this allowed him to easily find opportunities to counterattack.

Shangguan Jin's arm felt numb, and Jiang Chen took the opportunity to break free.

His ears were red and hot, as if they were burning.

Thinking back to the intimate whisper just now, Jiang Chen actually felt happy, which made him very annoyed with himself.

"What on earth did you do to Xiaoxue? Shangguan Jin, I warn you, if anything happens to Xiaoxue, I will never let it go."

Jiang Chen's eyes turned red because of his worry about Jiang Xue. Shangguan Jin slowly withdrew his hand. There was a hint of coldness in the smile on his lips:

"Then I want to see how you plan to deal with me. Now your internal energy is sealed and you have no martial arts skills. Do you want to fight me with strength alone? Huaichen, I just hope you can stay by my side. Is this so difficult for you?"

"I made it very clear when I came to Beixi. I would help you ascend the throne, and you would help me take back the Kingdom of Qian. From beginning to end, I never promised to stay by your side." As the legitimate prince of the Kingdom of Qian, his goal from beginning to end was to take back his own kingdom.

"But I haven't officially ascended the throne yet, so our agreement is not yet complete. It makes sense to keep you by my side." Shangguan Jin retorted.

"You are already the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. You are the only heir to the Emperor of Beixi. Sooner or later, the throne will be yours. It can be said that I have fulfilled my promise. Now it is your turn."

Jiang Chen's gaze was as sharp as a torch, making Shangguan Jin feel oppressed.

He tried to avoid the scorching gaze, but at that moment, Shangguan Jin quickly took action and pressed his acupoints, making him unable to move.

"Shh." Shangguan Jin gently pressed Jiang Chen's lips with his slender fingers and led him to the bed. "I'm very tired now, don't make any noise, and rest with me for a while."

With a pull of the finger, the curtain fell and the two people disappeared into the haze.

"Empress Concubine..." Outside the door, the maids witnessed everything through the half-open window.

Mo Huan's personal maid looked at her master worriedly, with helplessness in her eyes.

She secretly hated that worldly young man, thinking that he was the one who shamelessly seduced the Crown Prince, causing the Concubine so much pain.
