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

However, the bullets in the pistol were limited and were quickly exhausted.

As the trigger went blank, the secret guards realized that their weapons were no longer effective, and they pounced on Jiang Xue again like hungry wolves. Her life seemed to be hanging by a thread.

As the shadowy guards approached Jiang Xue, Wu Yungui's clenched teeth relaxed a little, and a smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. However, the smile froze in an instant.

"Ah!" A scream pierced the night sky, and arrows fell from the sky like raindrops, accurately nailing the rushing secret guards to the ground.

Every arrow hit the target without exception.

In the country of Qian, besides the Tieyun Army, only one other army can perform this superb archery skill.

"The traitors of the enemy country dared to invade our territory and threaten the safety of the royal family. This crime is unforgivable. Shoot them and leave no one alive." Wu Mengchuan's voice was powerful and resounding in the forest.

He led a thousand elite soldiers of the Wu family, quickly surrounded the area, and shot at the enemy mercilessly.

Soon after, the dense secret guards were completely eliminated, leaving only Ding Tu and Wu Yungui.

"Why is my father here?" Wu Yungui was shocked. He never expected that Wu Mengchuan would appear here.

He clearly remembered that someone had put sleeping pills in his father's food during the dinner...

Ding Tu remained silent, just looking coldly at Jiang Xue who was smiling at him.

This woman is really difficult to deal with.

Hundreds of well-trained spies fell at the hands of the Wu family army, which was a great opportunity wasted.

After the situation stabilized, Wu Mengchuan walked towards Wu Yungui angrily and slapped him hard.

This blow caused half of Wu Yungui's face to become red and swollen immediately, and there were several bloody scratches on his cheek from the edge of the armor.

Faced with his son's resentful eyes, although Wu Mengchuan was heartbroken, he was still prepared to teach him a lesson again.

At this time, Jiang Xue stopped him: "General Wu, please listen to me."

"Your Highness, my son is young and impulsive, and he has not thought through many things. I beg you to forgive him this time. I will discipline him strictly and ensure that such incidents do not happen again."

Although he was extremely disappointed with Wu Yungui's behavior, as a father, Wu Mengchuan still hoped to save his life.

In order to plead for his son, he even knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Wu Yungui felt mixed emotions when he saw his elderly father paying such a generous gift to the man who killed his sister.

Wu Mengchuan's heart was filled with guilt and anger. He hated himself for being loyal to such a cold-blooded and ruthless master.

Facing Jiang Xue, his anger almost devoured her, and he wished he could make her pay the price immediately.

The Wu family has been a proud family for generations, but her father bowed his head in front of her.

"Old General, you don't have to be so humble." Jiang Xue bent down and helped up the old minister who had made great contributions to the Qian Kingdom. "You are the pillar of the country and the person my father relies on the most. I really don't deserve such a courtesy."

Jiang Xue secretly sighed that for the sake of their children, parents can give up everything.

General Wu, who was once so arrogant, never bowed to anyone except the king of heaven and earth.

Although there is reason to severely punish Wu Yungui now, Jiang Xue knows that if she does so, she will lose the support of General Wu Lao, which is not conducive to her plan to regain the throne.

So, she glanced coldly at the murderous Wu Yungui, turned to Wu Mengchuan and said, "For your sake, I can forgive you once. I will not pursue Wu Yungui's crime today, but if you do it again next time, I will never forgive you."

"Thank you, Princess, for your kindness!" Wu Mengchuan burst into tears of gratitude and admired Jiang Xue even more.

"Princess, please rest assured. From now on, I will strictly discipline my rebellious son and make sure he won't do it again." Wu Mengchuan solemnly promised, and even said that if Wu Yungui made a mistake again, he would personally send him to the spirit of the late emperor to apologize.

When Wu Yungui mentioned the death of his sister Wu Meifeng, he could not suppress his inner grief and roared at his father. However, Wu Mengchuan stopped him severely and flatly denied that Wu Meifeng was still a member of the family, saying that she had brought it upon herself.

Wu Yungui's hatred for his father.

Jiang Xue was keenly aware of this change and suggested: "The young general is very emotional, the old general should take him back to rest to avoid losing his composure."

After saying this, Wu Mengchuan took his son away, leaving behind soldiers to clean up and guard Fengyuelin to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

After the Wu father and son left, Jiang Xue turned to Ding Tu and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Jiang Xue held a white silk in her hand. She mobilized her inner strength and swung it towards Ding Tu like a spirit snake.

However, Ding Tu just slightly turned his body and easily avoided the move.

"Alas, your martial arts are far inferior to your senior brother's." Ding Tu sneered disdainfully.

Looking at the shallow scratches left by Bai Ling on the tree, Jiang Xue pursed her lips, but there was no trace of frustration on her face.

"Princess Changle, attacks like yours are nothing but child's play to me." Ding Tu said sarcastically.

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Xue responded calmly. Her strong point has never been martial arts.

Then she took out a bamboo flute and played a melodious tune.

As the notes drifted away, the ground began to stir and countless poisonous snakes crawled towards Ding Tu's feet.

"Hmph, the same trick won't work on me." Ding Tu said lightly. The snakes retreated after smelling his shoes. He was well prepared and had coated the soles of his shoes with sulfur to prevent poison.

Just then, a small spider quietly landed on Ding Tu's neck.

Jiang Xue's eyes flashed with cunning, "Master Tu seems to have forgotten that snakes are not the only one among the five poisonous creatures."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Tu suddenly felt dizzy and weak, and finally fell to his knees. His vision became blurred, and despite his best efforts, he could not stop himself from gradually losing consciousness.

Seeing this, Jiang Xue became even more wary of Ding Tu. This man was so cruel that he stabbed his thigh with his own bayonet to stay awake, which showed how strong his will was.

"Your determination is admirable." Jiang Xue said coldly: "But this pain can only keep you awake temporarily. Now, you should feel that your internal strength has been blocked."

"What kind of poison is this..." Ding Tu asked breathlessly, trying to condense his true energy, but found that he was unable to do so.

"Do you think I would use ordinary poison?" Jiang Xue asked back, "I have heard about the methods used in the Yingxia Palace. In order to control her subordinates, Queen Lian would poison them to ensure their loyalty. Since you are Queen Lian's man, haven't you seen enough poisons?"

"If this isn't poison, then it must be a Gu." Ding Tu suddenly realized. Although he struggled to stand up, he was obviously unable to do anything.

The scene in front of him became increasingly blurry. Ding Tu clenched his teeth and increased the pressure of the bayonet.

The severe pain ran through his body like an electric current, waking him up instantly.

"Master Tu, please show some mercy." Jiang Xue said softly, "Your bayonet almost hit the vital part. If it was a little off, your leg would be broken."
