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

"This is all the Queen Mother's order. It has nothing to do with me." Princess Yunchu defended herself, trying to distance herself from the matter.

Jiang Xue's eyes became even darker: "If you were afraid of the consequences, you shouldn't have done it in the first place. Do you think I would be completely unaware of your conspiracy?"

Princess Yunchu was panicking. Did Jiang Xue already know about that? No, that was impossible.

"I don't understand what you're talking about," she denied.

Jiang Xue sneered: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I will make you understand."

After saying that, she struck out with lightning speed and slapped Princess Yunchu in the face. The blow was so powerful that Princess Yunchu fell to the ground, with blood spurting out of her mouth mixed with broken teeth.

"Now, do you understand?"

Jiang Xue questioned coldly that anyone who wanted to hurt the people she cherished would pay a heavy price for it.

Princess Yunchu's beautiful face suddenly became swollen and looked extremely scary.

Jiang Xue was not the kind of person who would pity the weak. Seeing that she remained silent, he drew out his sword and placed it on her hand:

"Since you still don't understand, let me help you think about it. I think it's useless to keep your hands that can play peerless music."

Princess Yunchu was so scared that she was shaking all over: "Your Highness, even if the Eastern Kingdom is not as powerful as the Imperial Dynasty, I am also a princess of a country. You can't treat me like this."

"What is the princess of Dongxiang? If anyone angers me, even if he is the emperor of Dongxiang, I will never show mercy."

This sentence touched Xiao Zhan's heart. He was her weakness.

"Stop!"

Empress Dowager Feng Ziqing walked in at this time: "Mrs. Changle, you beat and killed people in my Zhaode Hall, and even threatened to kill the Emperor of Dongyi, what is the meaning of this?

You are so arrogant, why not kill me and the emperor at the same time, and from now on no one in the dynasty can stop you."

Jiang Xue turned around, her eyes as sharp as a knife. Feng Ziqing instantly recalled the scene when she executed He Wenxian, and she couldn't help but tremble with fear.

However, things had come to this point and she had no choice but to face it.

"Your Highness, what I did today was not out of disrespect for you, but to save the Prime Minister from danger."

"save him?"

Feng Ziqing then noticed the injured Xiao Zhan and was horrified: "Xiao Zhan, what's wrong with you?"

Before he could answer, Feng Ziqing questioned Jiang Xue: "You were the one who hurt him, right? Not only did you hurt my palace maids, you also attacked Xiao Zhan. Your intentions are indeed ill-intentioned."

"It's not His Highness's fault."

Xiao Zhan's voice was calm: "Empress Dowager, I hurt myself."

"Why are you doing this?"

"I did this because of the Queen Mother's instruction."

Xiao Zhan continued to explain: "Ju'an once told me that blood loss can make people weak, and sometimes even alleviate the symptoms of poisoning. Just now, I accidentally took the love potion that the Queen Mother arranged, so I had to take the risk and try this method."

Feng Ziqing's expression suddenly changed: "Xiao Zhan, what are you talking about?"

"Empress Dowager, your move is intended to force me to marry Princess Yunchu as my consort. Although I don't understand your motives, I can tell you clearly that except Xiaoxue, I will not marry anyone else in this life."

Now that it was revealed, Feng Ziqing no longer concealed it: "Even if everything today was set up by me, it was for your own good. How can I and your mother feel at ease with you being in the Beiling harem?"

"Empress Dowager, your so-called good intentions are actually harming the Prime Minister."

Jiang Xue said: "Do you know that Princess Yunchu is actually two months pregnant?"

Hearing this, Princess Yunchu collapsed to the ground, realizing that her secret had been exposed. She was afraid that she could not save the baby in her belly, and even her own life was in danger.

Feng Ziqing turned pale with shock: "How is this possible? You must be kidding."

"Whether you are joking or not, you will know after the imperial physician comes to check your pulse."

Jiang Xue said coldly: "Queen Mother, I really want to know, what is your secret purpose in going to such great lengths to marry a princess with a bad reputation to Xiao Zhan?"

Feng Ziqing was touched in the sore spot, feeling ashamed and annoyed: "Your Highness, please speak with evidence. Even if Yun Chu is really pregnant, I just misjudged her and mistook her for Mingzhu.

My original intention was good, how could I have any other intentions? Xiao Zhan is also my cousin, how could I harm him? "

Jiang Xue believed that Feng Ziqing would not intentionally hurt her cousin, but she did not buy the idea that there was no other motive.

At this time, Fu Dong led the imperial physician in. Jiang Xue immediately asked him to check Xiao Zhan's pulse, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she confirmed that he was fine except for blood loss.

Then, she looked at Feng Ziqing with a sharp gaze: "Also check Princess Yunchu's pulse."

Yun Chu was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly: "No, please don't..."

Jiang Xue snorted softly: "Fudong."

Fu Dong understood and quickly pressed Yun Chu's acupoints, making her unable to move.

The imperial physician sensed the tense atmosphere and carefully took Yun Chu's pulse.

"Your Highness and Madam, Princess Yunchu is in good health, and the baby in her belly is also healthy."

Feng Ziqing's face turned pale in an instant.

She didn't expect Yun Chu to be pregnant, which completely ruined her plan. She knew that this result would make her cousin unhappy with her.

Jiang Xue said no more and helped Xiao Zhan up: "Let's go."

"it is good."

"Xiao Zhan!"

Feng Ziqing stopped him and said, "I just don't want to see you have few children, so I want to find you a beautiful woman to be your wife. I saw that Yun Chu was as beautiful as a fairy and had extraordinary musical skills, so I thought she would be a good choice for you, but I didn't expect that she would be such a person."

Jiang Xue sneered: "The Queen Mother's love potion is only effective on the Prime Minister, but Yun Chu was unharmed, which shows that she was well prepared. How can such a woman be called pure?"

Xiao Zhan turned around, his eyes cold: "Queen Mother, I have made up my mind, no need to say more."

Feng Ziqing's face became even gloomier as she watched the two people walk away. She glanced at Yun Chu, and an unpredictable anger flashed in her eyes.

Queen Mother Feng Ziqing was furious. She had hoped to get along with Prime Minister Dong, but she was humiliated by sending a princess with a damaged reputation.

She was determined to get justice for this.

"My Queen Mother, please forgive me."

Princess Yunchu knelt down in front of Feng Ziqing in panic and promised to be a slave in order to beg for forgiveness.

"Spare you?"

Feng Ziqing sneered: "Okay, I can forgive you."

Princess Yunchu couldn't believe it: "Really...really?"

"Indeed."

Feng Ziqing said: "I will send you back home in a grand ceremony and tell your father a good news - you are pregnant."

Hearing this, Yun Chu's face changed drastically. She grabbed the empress dowager's skirt tightly and kept kowtowing and begging: "No, please, spare me this time, I can really repay you."

She knew very well that if she was sent back like this, not only would she be doomed to die, but the person she wanted to protect would also be implicated.
