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

"If you really have good intentions, why not just give me a place to live? Why do you have to take me as a concubine?" Cao Zhiqing's smile twisted, "My heart only belongs to A Ling! I came here to avenge him. Wu Yungui must die because his father betrayed you."

Even if it wasn't for revenge, she had already decided to kill Wu Yungui from the moment he attacked her.

She belongs to A Ling and will always belong to A Ling. If anyone dares to take advantage of her, she will never let him go easily!

Whenever Wu Yungui and Jiang Qiyuan approached her, she had to grit her teeth and endure the unspeakable disgust. Every time they touched her, she felt extremely sick.

"Jiang Xue, I submitted to filthy people like Wu Yungui and Jiang Qiyuan just to kill you, why are you still alive? How could you still be alive?" Cao Zhiqing had lost control at this time. Facing this woman who could not be killed no matter what, she completely lost her mind.

Ah Ling died, died in her hands. It was this woman who took away the only warmth in her life.

Since A Ling's death, she has been tortured in the Cao family.

Cao Yuan didn't treat her as a human being at all. For the sake of his family's status, he gave her away like a commodity to one powerful person after another.

During those days, she felt that life was worse than death. If she hadn't thought about revenge for A Ling, she would have followed A Ling long ago.

Later, she met people from the Red Moon Sect, who told her that the leader was researching the art of resurrection.

As long as she is willing to be loyal to the Red Moon Cult, they can resurrect Aling.

For Aling, she agreed without hesitation.

After learning the news that Jiang Xue had returned to Qian Kingdom, she took the initiative to request to follow Mo Rui to Qian Kingdom with the purpose of destroying the Qian Kingdom royal family.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't kill Jiang Chen or Jiang Xue.

She understood that with Jiang Xue's intelligence, she would soon come to her house, so she decided to escape overnight.

However, her speed was ultimately no match for the other party.

Looking at the face in front of him that he hated so much, Cao Zhiqing laughed wildly, drew the knife from his waist and rushed towards Jiang Xue.

Even if it was just one knife, at least it was some revenge for A Ling.

Suddenly, with a "clang", the knife fell to the ground, and Cao Zhiqing's wrist was grabbed by a huge force. The whole person was thrown out and hit the wall heavily.

"Do you know why you can never kill me?" Jiang Xue looked at Cao Zhiqing lying on the ground coldly and said, "Because in this world, being weak is a sin, especially for those who overestimate their own abilities, they are destined to suffer the consequences."

Cao Zhiqing's body could not withstand Wu Mengchuan's attack at all, and her internal organs were probably severely damaged.

"General Wu, now that the truth is out, I'll leave this man to you to deal with." After Jiang Xue finished speaking, she looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, turned around and left the alley.

Before leaving, she took the package from Cao Zhiqing's hand and cast a solemn look at the black shadow that flashed not far away.

"Is the problem resolved?" When Jiang Xue returned to the princess's mansion late at night, Xiao Zhan was sitting in the hall waiting for her to return.

She smiled and nodded slightly.

"You are holding so many packages in your hands, what are they?" he asked curiously.

After taking the package, Xiao Zhan looked down and found that it was filled with various bottles and jars, emitting a pungent smell of medicine.

"This is what Cao Zhiqing wanted to take away when she escaped. It looks like it is very valuable to someone." Her eyes suggested that there might be spies around.

"Oh? That's indeed very interesting." Xiao Zhan understood what she meant, and then signaled the people at the door to deal with the stalker.

Not long after, a man in black was dragged in.

"Kneel down!" Tieyi kicked the man behind the knee, forcing him to kneel in front of the two men.

"Are you a member of the Red Moon Cult?" Jiang Xue said, pointing at the obvious red crescent mark on the back of the man's hand.

The man remained silent, his eyes fixed on the package on the table, with a strong desire in his eyes.

"Why do you care so much about this package?" Jiang Xue held up the package and shook it in front of him. "Tell me, why does the Red Moon Cult value these things so much?"

"Don't even think about it!" the man responded coldly, his voice hoarse and full of hostility.

Seeing this, Jiang Xue handed the package to Tieyi, took out a bamboo flute from her waist and started playing it.

As the melodious tune played, a small golden insect crawled up the man's neck and finally drilled into his ear.

"Ah! Ugh!" As the small insect penetrated deeper into his body, the man rolled on the ground in pain, screaming miserably.

"Are you willing to talk now?" Jiang Xue stopped playing and leaned over to ask.

The insects calmed down temporarily as the sound of the flute disappeared, giving the man a chance to catch his breath.

He covered his chest, breathing with difficulty, and glared at Jiang Xue with resentment in his eyes.

"Ah!" Before he could react, an arrow had pierced the back of his head.

The arrow was shot with extreme accuracy and was fatal.

Jiang Xue looked at the corpse on the ground with a frown on her face.

"Tieyi, chase after him." Xiao Zhan saw the black shadow passing by the roof and immediately gave the order.

"No need for that." Jiang Xue stopped him, "The Red Moon Cult's people act in secret. By the time Tieyi arrives, they will have already disappeared without a trace."

She then instructed: "Dispose of this body, and be careful not to come into direct contact to prevent poisoning."

From the beginning, she sensed the smell of medicine on this person, so she kept her distance.

"Since they are so nervous about this package, it won't be too late for us to interrogate them thoroughly next time they come." She hid the package in a safe place.

"Okay." Xiao Zhan agreed, and added that he would arrange for people from Linglong Pavilion to closely guard the princess's mansion and immediately arrest any intruders they found.

"Okay." Jiang Xue smiled tiredly. Xiao Zhan felt pity for her when he saw the bloodshot eyes.

She had hardly any rest these days, and her thin body became even more haggard.

He gently held her in his arms and sat her down, massaging her temples softly with his fingers until she relaxed, closed her eyes, and snuggled into him.

"Still worried?" Xiao Zhan felt that her body was still tense.

"Yes." She admitted, "Although Bahai was captured, the forces behind him are intertwined and complex, and it is not easy to completely eliminate them. My brother will definitely punish this rebellion severely, but the Ba family will not give up. What I am afraid of is that after dealing with Bahai, their power will rebound..."

Bahai was just a member of the Ba family. Even if he was gone, the family would quickly elect a new leader to take control of the situation.

The Ba family originated from the slave class and had no fear in the face of the royal family.

Their ambitions had been obvious during the reign of the previous emperor, and Jiang Qiyuan's weakness had only emboldened them.

Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, he is still subject to the influence of the Ba family.

"I have a plan." Xiao Zhan hugged her tighter.

"Tell me about it," she asked, leaning her head back on his shoulder.
