Translator: Dragon Boat Translation , Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Wen Xiu pressed the dagger against Li Shuang’er’s throat and shouted. Her voice was initially sweet, but at this mont, it beca murderous. Her eyes were no longer as gentle as water but abnormally sharp.
“You killed my parents. I’ll fight you to the death.
Li Shuang’ er wanted to fight Wen Xiu to the death with the dagger stuck to her throat. The sharp blade cut her skin, and blood gushed out.
“Wen Xiu, stop.”
Before Li Daniu could react to Xiao Zeyu’s words, he saw Wen Xiu cut his sister with a dagger. He shouted anxiously, wanting to go over and save his sister.
“Don’t co over.”
Wen Xiu rebuked him sternly. The dagger in her hand was pressed against Li Shuang’ er’s neck. She exerted a little force, and blood gushed out wildly, scaring Li Daniu so much that he did not dare to move. Li Shuang’er was in extre pain, and warm blood flowed down. She was so scared that she did not dare to move anymore.
“Let go of Shuang’er. I’ll give you how much money you want.”
When Li Shuang’er’s husband saw that his wife was being held hostage, he hurriedly shouted at Wen Xiu. It didn’t matter if he went bankrupt. He could earn more money. If his wife died, he would never see her again.
Xiao Zeyu looked at Wen Xiu and said coldly,
“Let go of her, and I’ll let you go.”
“No, if I let her go, you’ll have to get soone to catch imdiately. If you want to let her go, you can co over in exchange.”
Wen Xiu did not fall for it. She was surrounded by the Royal Guards, who were eyeing her covetously. She knew that as long as she let go of Li Shuang’er, Xiao Zeyu would order his n to capture her.
If she were caught, she would have no way out. Now, she was fighting with her back against the wall. She was betting on whether Xiao Zeyu cared about Li Daniu and his sister.
“Wen Xiu, why are you like this? Let go of my sister.
He saved this woman. Now, she might be the murderer of his parents and had kidnapped his sister. Li Daniu’s heart ached. He was unwilling to beheve the scene in front of him. He hoped that this was a nightmare.
When he saved her, she was helpless and begged him to take her in. Her beauty and gentleness made him fascinated. After they got married, they lived a beautiful life. Even if Li Daniu saw it with his own eyes, he was unwilling to believe that she was a bad person. He hoped that Wen Xiu would listen to his advice and let go of his sister.
“Shut up.”
Wen Xiu shouted at Li Daniu impatiently. She no longer had her usual gentleness. Her eyes were filled with killing intent.
“Emperor, what’s wrong? Are you afraid of death? So the Emperor of the Great Tang is a coward; isn’t he afraid of being laughed at by the people?”
Wen Xiu looked at Xiao Zeyu with a cold smile, trying to goad him.
Xiao Zeyu stood with his hands behind his back and looked coldly at Wen Xiu. Provoking him was useless, but he couldn’t stand idly by and watch Li Shuang ‘er get killed.
Aunt Li and Uncle Li had already been killed. If Shuang’er died , Daniu would be alone. He would feel guilty and bla himself for the rest of his life.
For the sake of Li Daniu, Xiao Zeyu had to accept it even if he knew it was a goading tactic. Moreover, Xiao Zeyu was bold and did not put Wen Xiu in his eyes.
“Alright, Zhen will exchange for her.”
Since Wen Xiu already knew his identity, Xiao Zeyu no longer had to hide it deliberately. With a single word, the Emperor pressed down on Wen Xiu like a mountain.
Wen Xiu’s eyes were filled with hatred, but simultaneously, there was a flash of fear. This man was not a good-for-nothing, nor was he a weak scholar. He was the Emperor on horseback, and his hands had killed countless people.
Moreover, his willpower was excellent. The last ti she used seduction techniques on him, it did not work. But now, there was no other way. She could only fight with her back against the wall.
Her plan to avenge her country could still be realized if she won the bet. If she lost the bet, it would only be a life.
Xiao Zeyu walked towards her step by step. Wen Xiu subconsciously dragged Li Shuang’er back. Although she was ntally prepared, she was still suffocated by the pressure from Xiao Zeyu’s body. Her intuition of danger made her regret it a little, but now she had no way to escape, so she could only bite the bullet.
“Let her go.”
Xiao Zeyu walked over to Wen Xiu and ordered her to release her.
“Tie yourself up.”
Wen Xiu naturally wouldn’t let Li Shuang’er go just like that. She shouted at
Xiao Zeyu with all her might.
She would only be safer if he were tied up.
“Wen Xiu? Put down the knife.”
Li Daniu impulsively approached and wanted to snatch the knife from Wen Xiu’s hand. Wen Xiu imdiately cut Li Shuang’er’s neck. Li Shuang’ er cried out in pain. Her husband anxiously knelt on the ground and begged Wen Xiu, “Sister-in-law, please let Shuang’er go. She’s still pregnant!
“Wenxiu, we’ve been husband and wife for one night. Please let Shuang’er know that I saved you.”
Li Daniu was so frightened that he did not dare to move. He begged Wen Xiu, hoping she would rember the kindness he had shown her by saving her life. “Hmph, save ? Do you think you saved ? I lured you here on purpose. Do you think you’re a hero?”
Wen Xiu looked at Li Daniu mockingly. The disgust in her eyes could not be concealed. She had been acting with him for half a month. Every day, she would smile at him and pretend to be gentle. At night, just thinking about it made her want to vomit.
“As for a night as a couple? Do you think we’ve slept together?”
Wen Xiu looked at Li Daniu in disgust.
“You’re just a farr. How dare you share a bed with ?
“What did you say?”
Li Daniu looked at her in disbelief. They had slept together before, so why did she say that?
■’Every night, I give you dicine that makes you intoxicated with yourself. You can do whatever you want.”
Wen Xiu sneered. Li Daniu’s face was ashen. He rembered now. Wen Xiu brought him a bowl of calming soup every day. He thought that Wen Xiu was concerned about him, but it turned out that she was drugging him.
Those intimate monts were all fantasies he had after drinking the dicine. ■’Why are you doing this to ?” Li Daniu looked at Wen Xiu angrily.
“Because you still have so value.”
Wen Xiu looked at him coldly without any reluctance. Her voice was filled with disdain. She thought highly of him for letting her act with him.
At least she had married him. If this were in the past, he wouldn’t be worthy of leading her horse.
“You… Did you kill my parents?”
Li Daniu clenched his fists in anger. This was the most outstanding humiliation for a man. The wife he had married had not even let him touch her, and she even looked down on him from the bottom of her heart.
“The two old things saw what happened, so I had no choice but to kill them to silence them.”
Wen Xiu replied coldly as if she was not killing her in-laws but a chicken and a duck.
“I’m going to kill you.”
Li Daniu was so angry that he wanted to kill Wen Xiu. However, he stopped when he saw another bloody scar on his sister’s neck. He had nowhere to vent his anger. He hated himself for letting a wolf into his house. He pounded his chest hard and let out a roar.
Xiao Zeyu saw that Li Shuang’er’s neck had been cut by Wen Xiu again. He ordered the Royal Guards at the side in a deep voice,
“n, tie up..”
