Ye Jin looked at Xiao Xuetang with a hint of ferocity in her eyes. As she gave the order, the sword of the Qinglian Guard was about to fall. Xiao Xuetang hurriedly said, "Wait!"

Ye Jin looked at Xiao Xuetang with disdain and sneered, "Xiao Xuetang, you are about to die, what else do you have to say? You don't think that if you delay, someone will save you?!"

Without waiting for Xiao Xuetang to speak, Ye Jin said to himself: "The Regent King is now a prisoner and can hardly protect himself. Without the support of a man, you, Xiao Xuetang, are nothing!"

Having said that, Ye Jin stared at Xiao Xuetang with a vicious look, as if he wanted to cut a few cuts on such a beautiful face.

If Xiao Xuetang didn't have such an alluring face, it wouldn't have been so difficult for her to snatch Lin Shaoshu.

Xiao Xuetang met Ye Jin's murderous gaze, and her heart skipped a beat. She sighed and resigned herself to her fate: "Ye Jin, since I'm already in your hands, you can kill me or shave me as you please. But before I die, at least let me know what's going on. Tell me, who wants to kill me, you or the Queen Mother? Why does the Queen Mother want to kill me?"

Ye Jin was very happy to hear this, and said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Xuetang, normally you are so high and mighty, looking down on others, but now that you are about to die, you are afraid."

"but……"

Ye Jin changed the subject and said in a cold voice: "Xiao Xuetang, just give up on this idea. I will take your life. I will not tell you a single word of what you want to know."

Ye Jin had suffered several losses at the hands of Xiao Xuetang, so he naturally learned his lesson. He immediately ordered, "Stop talking nonsense, just kill her..."

Just when they were on the verge of life and death, Xiao Xuetang suddenly shouted, "Lin Shaoshu!"

Hearing Lin Shaoshu's name, everyone turned around subconsciously, and at this moment, Xiao Xuetang suddenly grabbed Ye Jin, who was facing away from her, pulled out a hairpin and pressed it against Ye Jin's neck, and shouted to the Qinglian Guards who surrounded them: "If you come one step closer, I will kill her!"

The hairpin in Xiao Xuetang's hand was against Ye Jin's neck. At this moment, Ye Jin was filled with fear and hatred, and shouted, "Xiao Xuetang, you cheated!"

Listening to Ye Jin's accusation, Xiao Xuetang's mouth twitched, and he said meaningfully: "All is fair in war..."

"Ye Jin, you are much smarter than before, but not very smart."

Listening to Xiao Xuetang's teasing and mocking tone, Ye Jin now wanted to cut Xiao Xuetang into pieces.

Can……

At this moment, her life is in Xiao Xuetang's hands.

Seeing that she had helped the Queen Mother accomplish a great thing and was only one step away from the throne of Queen that she had always dreamed of, she absolutely could not die in the hands of this madman Xiao Xuetang.

"You guys retreat quickly..."

Ye Jin reluctantly ordered Qing Lian, and also ordered Xiao Xuetang: "Xiao Xuetang, I have an heir in my belly. If you dare to hurt me, the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness Prince Heng will not forgive you."

"Is it?"

Xiao Xuetang raised a smile on her lips and asked in a meaningful way, which made Ye Jin feel a little guilty.

At this time, Xiao Xuetang didn't care what Ye Jin was thinking at all. He held Ye Jin hostage and was about to leave the encirclement of the side hall. At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed by...

Suddenly Xiao Xuetang felt a sharp pain in her right arm, and the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground with a bang. Someone slapped her on the back and she fell to the ground, spitting out blood.

At this time, Ye Jinru was pardoned. She broke free from Xiao Xuetang's grip and ran towards the man: "Commander Xia, Xiao Xuetang dared to hold me hostage. Kill her for me!"

At this time, Ye Jin's voice was sharp and his expression was a little funny, but Xiao Xuetang couldn't laugh.

Standing in front of her was a middle-aged man wearing a purple-piped shirt.

He looked handsome, but his expression was cold and he didn't look like a good person.

It was none other than the leader of the Qinglian Guard, Xia Yan!

Just now, he only gave Xiao Xuetang a light palm, and she felt as if her shoulder was crushed, but she still gritted her teeth to endure the pain, swallowed the blood in her mouth, and staggered to her feet.

Xia Yan looked at Xiao Xuetang with some surprise. After a moment, his dark eyes narrowed and he said sarcastically, "Miss Xiao, you entered our Qinglian Guard's territory and you still want to run away?"

Xiao Xuetang's heart suddenly sank, but he did not say a word of begging for mercy. Instead, he said, "Commander Xia, you are the emperor's personal guard, how come you have become Ye Jin's running dog?"

Xiao Xuetang's words could be said to be impolite, but Xia Yan's expression did not change. He sneered and said, "She is sharp-tongued. Come, take her away and interrogate her strictly to see if you can find any evidence that the Regent is plotting treason."

Obviously, Xia Yan did this to a weak woman like Xiao Xuetang because of Lin Xun!

If Xiao Xuetang was really taken away by Xia Yan, it would be a hundred times more miserable than falling into Ye Jin's hands.

Lu Zizhen's heart was lifted up. At this moment, he heard a voice saying, "Stop!"

The person who spoke was none other than Jiang Yinghe who was beside Emperor Yonghui.

And Mu Yan was right behind Jiang Yinghe...

Is this the reinforcement Mu Yan brought? !

When Ye Jin looked at Mu Yan, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he almost bit his back teeth off.

At this time, Jiang Yinghe looked at the mess in the side hall and Xiao Xuetang's pale and embarrassed look, and almost fainted...

What is this all about!

After all, Jiang Yinghe was a close confidant of Emperor Yonghui, so Ye Jin did not dare to offend him. With a forced smile on his face, he asked Jiang Yinghe, "Eunuch Jiang, why are you here?"

"We...we are here to invite Miss Xiao in accordance with the order of His Majesty."

Jiang Yinghe's confidence was a little lacking.

Xia Yan, who was standing by, had a sharp look in his eyes, and suddenly said, "Eunuch, the emperor issued an order half an hour ago that no one would be seen tonight. Could it be that you are falsely conveying the imperial order?"

"Eunuch, are you going to protect Xiao Xuetang, this traitor?"

Ye Jin's sharp voice exploded in his ears, sounding a bit harsh.

Jiang Yinghe looked at Ye Jin deeply, with a subtle look in his eyes.

This Concubine Jin is really something. She was just scolded yesterday, why is she jumping around again today?

"My Lady Concubine, the people in Jiufan Mountain are all royal relatives or pillars of the court. There are no traitors as you say. Please be careful with your words."

Hearing Jiang Yinghe's impolite tone, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Ye Jin's face.

Damn eunuch, don’t think she didn’t notice that he always favors Xiao Xuetang.

This time, as long as Lin Shaoshu's plan succeeds, the harem will be her world, and she will take action against this dead eunuch first!

Ye Jin's eyes turned, and he directly mentioned the Queen Mother and said, "The Queen Mother asked Xiao Xuetang to go and talk. The Emperor has always been filial, so I think he won't stop it, right?"

Xiao Xuetang exposed Ye Jin: "But just now Concubine Jin kept saying that she wanted to beat me to death. Could it be that the Queen Mother wants to talk to the dead?"

Ye Jin listened to Xiao Xuetang's playful tone and stared at her with eyes almost popping out of his head.

Xiao Xuetang smiled even more: "Or was it Concubine Jin who forged the imperial decree? Concubine Jin is so bold."

"No, I didn't!"

Ye Jin immediately retorted that she absolutely could not let Xiao Xuetang accuse her of this.

Listening to Ye Jin's rebuttal, Xiao Xuetang pretended to be terrified and said, "It's neither this nor that. Could it be that the Queen Mother wants to kill me?"

"No... the Queen Mother has always loved me, she would never be so cruel!"

Seeing Xiao Xuetang talking about the Queen Mother, Ye Jin's face changed...
