The lady is reborn? The crazy villain kisses her forcefully and won't let go!

Shan Qi had a blank expression on his face. He turned the hilt of the sword in his hand slightly and kicked Jiang Xia in the chest.

Jiang Xia flew backwards and hit a bamboo pole, causing leaves to fall to the ground.

He slowly raised his eyes and saw two blurry figures approaching.

His breath choked, and he dropped his head, without moving.

Shanqi stepped forward and quickly searched for something in Jiang Xia's arms.

He soon found the thing, took it out and saw that it was a neatly folded piece of drawing paper.

He held the drawing paper between two fingers and looked at the person next to him.

Jun Zhao glanced at the thing in his hand, then raised his eyes, his cold eyes seemed to pierce through the cover of darkness and looked outside the bamboo forest.

At the same time, on the other side of the bamboo forest.

After Jun Zhiling left the bamboo house, he did not return along the same route he came from, but headed north.

The road they came from was blocked by the guards who came to provide support.

If he wanted to clear his suspicion, he could only go back to the camp from the north.

But not long after he left, he heard a rustling sound near a hillside, accompanied by weak shouts.

"Help... help..."

A soft female voice surrounded him, and Jun Zhiling turned his head suddenly, staring at the slope as if he had seen a ghost.

"Help... help me..."

There was a faint light flashing down the slope, and there was another burst of intermittent cries for help, accompanied by a hoarse cry.

Jun Zhiling suppressed his restless mind, raised his feet and slowly approached the slope.

There is a stream at the bottom of the slope. The closer you get, the more you can hear the sound of the water.

Jun Zhiling leaned over and took a look down.

It's a woman!

She lay prone on the slope, holding tightly in her hand a bamboo that was half buried in the soil.

A light pink dress caught Jun Zhiling's eye.

A picture flashed in my mind. At the banquet, I only saw a corner of a woman's dress.

The person in front of him had a slender figure, and in the hazy night, he looked no different from Mu Luan.

A hint of deep meaning flashed across Jun Zhiling's eyes, and he stretched out his hand to her, "Give me your hand."

The woman heard the noise above her head and looked up. A look of joy suddenly flashed across her frightened eyes.

"Fourth Prince!"

The moment he saw the woman's face clearly, Jun Zhiling's eyes paused slightly.

Why is it Su Lan?

At this time, Su Lan had already reached out and held Jun Zhiling's hand tightly.

Jun Zhiling had no time to think, he retracted his long arms and pulled the person up from the slope.

He asked, "Why are you here?"

Su Lan's eyes flashed.

She heard that the prince was heading towards the bamboo forest, and thought that he must be here to see that bitch Mu Luan.

So she followed secretly, wanting to see with her own eyes whether the things Ye Yaozhi gave were really that powerful.

But the guards were very sharp, so she couldn't follow them too closely. She could only wait until they were far away before getting closer.

However, what she didn't expect was that the mountain road was so difficult to walk on.

In just a few minutes of hiding behind a forest, she lost track of the group of people and got lost in the woods.

She circled the mountain road several times but failed to get out.

I also heard strange noises coming from the forest.

She was so frightened that she didn't dare to stay for a moment and fled quickly in the opposite direction.

Finally, he stepped on something and rolled down the slope.

She thought she was going to die in this wilderness tonight. Just as she was terrified, she suddenly heard the voice of the Fourth Prince.

I thought I was hallucinating, but when I looked up, it was actually the Fourth Prince.

Su Lan's eyes were red and wet, her face was pale, and there was cold sweat on her temples. It was obvious that she was frightened.

Realizing that Jun Zhiling was still holding her hand, Su Lan moved her fingertips slightly. Not only did she not pull her hand out, but she also leaned towards Jun Zhiling as soft as a boneless person.

Although half of this was fake, the other half was indeed due to being scared.

Her voice trembled as she clutched Jun Zhiling's clothes tightly, fearing that he would abandon her.

Jun Zhiling lowered his eyes and glanced at the woman who was hugging him, but did not pull her away.

Su Lan said, "My aunt was looking for my brother the prince. I saw him leading people into the bamboo forest, so I followed him. But... I accidentally lost him."

With the sweet and soft beauty in his arms, Jun Zhiling could not think of any romantic thoughts.

Hearing this, he let the person in his arms hug him tightly, and the darkness in his eyes became darker and darker.

Half an hour later, the lights in front of the royal tent were as bright as day. All the officials and imperial guards were kneeling in a crowd, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn.

In the tent, a corpse was placed in front of the table. The queen looked at the hand hanging from the white cloth, her chest heaving violently.

If it weren't for the palace maid supporting her, she would have almost fallen.

The slender fingertips tightly pinched the palm of his hand, and his eyes were bloodshot and filled with tears.

But she suppressed the bad premonition in her heart. Without seeing the true appearance of the body with her own eyes, she would never believe that this body was the prince's.

General Mu Sinian walked forward with a frown on his face, slowly lifted the white cloth, and a pale face suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

It’s the prince!

But his eyes were wide open and his death looked so miserable that everyone present gasped.

The last glimmer of hope was shattered, the queen's legs softened, her breathing suddenly became rapid, and she called out in a hoarse voice: "Zheng'er!"

Tears welled up in her eyes, she pushed away the palace maid who was supporting her and rushed to Jun Qizhen's side.

Her fingers trembled like a sieve, and she wanted to touch Jun Qizhen's face tenderly.

But when she was about to touch him, her fingertips shrank back and she looked towards the emperor in front of the table with tears streaming down her face.

She said with great sorrow: "Your Majesty, my son is gone too... gone..."

The emperor was heartbroken. In less than a year, he had lost two sons.

Whether it was an accident or a conspiracy, it was undoubtedly a provocation to the imperial power and a challenge to the royal majesty.

He said in a deep voice: "Come here, send the queen back and take good care of her."

Cao Mang stepped forward and helped the queen up. As their eyes met, he whispered in a shrill voice, "Your Majesty, go back and rest first. The Emperor will definitely make the decision for the Crown Prince and will never let His Highness go like this without knowing the reason."

The queen glanced at the emperor, her eyes revealing the pain of losing a son.

Finally, she lowered her eyes, covered her sobs with a handkerchief, and was escorted out of the tent by the palace maid.

The emperor tried his best to suppress his anger, but when the queen disappeared, he finally lost control and punched the table, shouting angrily, "Someone tell me how a good person could die!"

Mu Sinian half-knelt on the ground with a serious expression.

When the guards came to report, he immediately led his men in the direction of the assassin.

When he arrived, the prince was lying in the bamboo house, dead.

There were corpses everywhere under the bamboo forest, it was a horrible sight.

From the guards who were still conscious, we learned that the remaining assassins had all fled to the mountains.

Everything happened so fast, and in the dark of night, trying to track down the escaping assassin was like looking for a needle in a haystack in this vast forest.

Mu Sinian bowed and said, "It seems the assassin came prepared. For some reason, His Highness took a group of guards to the bamboo forest tonight. The bamboo forest is remote and poorly guarded, which gave the assassin an opportunity to take advantage of it.
