"Uncle, you didn't come here just to see me, did you?" Jiang Xue knew very well that this uncle had no good intentions towards her, a descendant of the royal family.

"Changle, you are a smart child. You should understand that I am the only one who can save you now. You are the only descendant of my royal brother, and I don't want to kill you. As long as you agree to one condition of mine, I will let you go." Jiang Qiyuan said.

Jiang Xue sneered. The man in front of her colluded with foreign enemies to usurp the throne, causing her father's death, her mother's shame, her brother's exile, and she herself was also used as a bargaining chip to the enemy.

Isn’t this cruel?

"What conditions does uncle want?" Her voice was as cold as ice.

"Give me the jade seal. As long as I have the jade seal, I promise to let you leave safely." Jiang Qiyuan stretched out his hand, with an arrogant tone of alms.

Mo Tian, ​​who was standing by, was furious when he saw this. How could this traitor treat the princess with such contempt?

"Uncle, you are such a joker. Since you have already become the emperor, the imperial seal should be in your hands. Why do you come to me for it?" Jiang Xue said sarcastically.

Can Jiang Qiyuan, who has been sitting in an unjust position for two years, really keep his position stable?

Faced with the ridicule, Jiang Qiyuan became angry and the gentleness he pretended to have disappeared in an instant. He threatened: "Jiang Xue, don't be ungrateful. I am giving you a chance because of your royal bloodline. If you don't appreciate it, I can take your life now!"

"You want my life? Then can you still get the imperial seal?" Jiang Xue retorted, making Jiang Qiyuan even more furious.

Jiang Qiyuan was so angry that his beard stood up. He immediately ordered Jiang Xue to be forcibly pulled out of the scorpion pot. The roughness of the stone wall rubbed her wounds, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.

Seeing this scene, Mo Tian felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He wanted to rush forward to teach those who treated Jiang Xue rudely a lesson, but a firm look made him stop.

"Come here, search her. I don't believe that she doesn't have such an important jade seal with her." Jiang Qiyuan ordered.

The guards acted upon hearing the order and prepared to search Jiang Xue.

"Stop!" Mo Tian shouted sternly, scaring the guards so much that they dared not act rashly.

"Your Majesty, this jade seal is so precious. What if it is damaged by these clumsy guys? Let me come in person." He suggested respectfully.

Jiang Qiyuan thought it made sense, so he waved his hand and agreed. When Mo Tian approached Jiang Xue, she quickly whispered a few words in his ear. Mo Tian silently took note of it and then stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have checked carefully and did not find the jade seal." Mo Tian turned and reported to Jiang Qiyuan.

"Tell me, where is the imperial seal?" Jiang Qiyuan drew out a sword, placed it across Jiang Xue's neck, and threatened her with her life.

"Uncle, do you think I will reveal it easily? Besides, the jade seal originally belongs to my lineage. I am keeping it to return it to its original owner. Why do you want it back?" Jiang Xue said fearlessly.

"Return the property to its original owner? Haha, that's really funny. Jiang Xue, don't you understand your current situation?" After sneering three times, Jiang Qiyuan announced that Jiang Xue would be executed on the city wall in three days.

Even without the imperial seal, his throne has remained as stable as ever in the past two years.

As long as Jiang Xue disappears, no one will challenge his authority anymore.

"What did you say? Jiang Qiyuan wants to kill Xiaoxue?" Si Ruochen's face changed drastically after hearing the news brought back by the spy.

"That's right. General Mo said that the execution will take place on the city wall in three days." The spy added.

"What on earth is Mo Tian doing? Hasn't he seen Xiaoxue? Why couldn't he rescue her?" Si Ruochen was extremely anxious.

Si Ruochen's heartbeat quickened and his body trembled uncontrollably.

"Don't get too excited." Murray comforted him softly, "As the leader of the Iron Cloud Vanguard, Chief Zhou must have his own plans."

"Your Highness, what should we do next? Do we have to go rescue people?" Qiu Qianhuan asked anxiously.

Jiang Qiyuan has announced that he has caught a woman who pretended to be Princess Changle and decided to publicly execute her, the real Princess Changle, Jiang Xue.

Such a public execution was undoubtedly a great insult to Jiang Xue.

She is obviously a real princess, but she was framed as a liar. This is really despicable and shameless.

If Jiang Qiyuan really executed Princess Changle in public, then the Tieyun Army would lose its reason to send troops.

Xiao Zhan stared at the note sent by Mo Tian and said in a low voice, "That's right."

Then he turned to Qiu Qianhuan: "You come with me." Then he looked at Mo Rui and Si Ruochen: "You two will take care of the rest."

Time flies, and the day of execution arrives in a blink of an eye.

Although Jiang Xue's injuries had not yet healed, she was still taken to the city wall.

"Look! That's the woman pretending to be a princess!"

"She really looks like a princess! If I didn't know she was fake, I would have taken her for real."

"Our princess was killed by Beiling's people a long time ago. How dare this woman impersonate her? It's so abominable! Damn it!"

"Yes, kill her. She has tarnished the princess's reputation."

The people of Qian State under the city were deceived by the news spread by Jiang Qiyuan, and shouted to kill Jiang Xue, and their emotions were extremely excited.

Standing on the high platform, Jiang Qiyuan watched all this with satisfaction.

Although as the emperor he did not have to be present to supervise in person, because Jiang Xue had the blood of the Feng family flowing in her veins, he wanted to witness the end of this bloodline with his own eyes.

He glanced at Jiang Xue, who had no expression on her face, with a smug look.

Humph, Changle, no matter how smart you are, you will eventually be defeated by me.

Brother Huang, you must miss your daughter very much in the underworld, right?

Wait a little longer, I'll send her down to join you soon.

As noon approached, Jiang Qiyuan raised his hand to signal.

The supervising officer immediately understood what he meant, nodded and ordered: "The time has come, execute the sentence!"

The executioner clenched the sword in his hand and slowly walked towards Jiang Xue who was standing upright.

In full view of the crowd, the executioner swung his knife down.

However, the knife did not cause blood to splatter on the spot as expected.

"Ah!" With a cry of surprise, a powerful force deflected the blade, causing the sharp blade that was originally pointing at the prisoner to actually slash horizontally towards the supervising official.

Fortunately, the gentleman reacted quickly, and although half of his black hat was cut off, he himself escaped the disaster unscathed.

At the same time, Jiang Xue was quickly taken away by two figures and her restraints were untied.

"Why are you here?" she asked Xiao Zhan in her arms in surprise.

Didn't she ask Mo Tian to tell Xiao Zhan to go to Changle Mountain? Why did he appear in this execution ground?

"I made some changes to your original plan." Xiao Zhan said to her with his head down, his eyes full of determination.

After landing steadily, he gently put Jiang Xue down.

"Did you let senior brother go back alone?" Jiang Xue noticed that only Xiao Zhan and Qiu Qianhuan came, and there was no sign of Si Ruochen.

According to her expectations, given Si Ruochen's physical condition, once the silver needle was removed, he would recover in no time.
