Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing Lady Zhang’s behavior, Yu Yunxi felt even more distressed for Jian Xin.
Lady Zhang was not Qian Qing’s birth mother so her treatnt of Qian Qing was sowhat understandable. However, she was clearly Jian Xin’s birth mother. Yu Yunxi could not understand how she could favor one daughter so much over another. Although she did not do it openly, based on her subtle actions, Yu Yunxi could imagine how much Jian Xin must have suffered in the Jian family all these years.
Yu Yunxi tamped down her murderous intent toward Lady Yang before she turned to Jian Xian and pleaded tremblingly, “Jian Xin, can you please hold on a little longer?”
Yu Yunxi addressed Jian Xin by her na instead of ‘Princess Consort Rui’. Hearing the change in the way Yu Yunxi addressed her, a sincere smile, which had not been seen for a long ti, appeared on her face. She was really tired of being Princess Consort Rui. She wanted soone to treat her as Jian Xin, soone with flesh and blood, not Princess Consort Rui who had to endure humiliation and swallow her anger for the sake of the family’s glory.
“County Princess, when you see Qing, please tell her that I’m sorry that I couldn’t protect her back then. I’m really sorry…” Jian Xin said tremblingly as she held Yu Yunxi’s hand. Tears rolled down her face as she spoke.
“No, she doesn’t bla you at all. She still cares about you…” Yu Yunxi said anxiously.
Jian Xin took a deep breath and said gently, “County Princess, you’re a smart person. I’m sure you must have guessed so things. However, please don’t put yourself in danger for . It’s not worth it..
Then, Jian Xin let go of all the solemn dignity she forcefully maintained for so long, and she leaned over and whispered into Yu Yunxi’s ear, “I can feel your hand. I know you practiced martial arts. Please promise that you’ll escape now, and don’t look back. If there’s a next life, I hope I can be like Qing and et you.”
“No, don’t say that…” Yu Yunxi panicked. She watched as Jian Xin’s hand turned limp, slowly sliding down to the side. At the sa ti, Jian Xin’s eyes also slowly closed.
Initially, Yu Yunxi felt that Jian Xin still wanted to survive. She felt that the latter definitely would be able to endure until they returned to the capital for her to be treated. However, she did not know when Jian Xin lost the will to live.
“No! Jian Xin, wake up, wake up!”
Yu Yunxi could not accept that Jian Xin was gradually losing her breath.
anwhile, Lady Zhang who was still complaining to Jian Si about Yu Yunxi’s lack of etiquette finally heard the commotion. She turned around in shock and saw Jian Xin lying limply in Yu Yunxi’s arms. She was finally anxious. She pushed Jian Si aside and rushed to Jian Xin.
“Xing Xin(!” Lady Zhang called out, but there was no response. She raised her hand in trepidation and placed her trembling fingers under Jian Xin’s nose.
‘She’s not breathing!’
Lady Zhang fell to the ground with a loud thump. Tears rolled down her face as she cried out, “Impossible! Xin smiled at and told she was fine earlier! How could she die?”
‘Xin died?’
Jian Zhong staggered slightly. He seed to have aged in just a mont. He kept shaking his head as he muttered over and over again, “Impossible, impossible…’
A few of the maidservants, who had regained consciousness, kneeled down and cried when they heard the news.
Only Jian Si was curled up in a corner, staring at Jian Xin’s lifeless body in Yu Yunxi’s arm with a horrified expression.
Lady Zhang suddenly glared at Yu Yunxi. It was as though she had found an outlet to vent her emotions. She scolded, “It must be you! Xin was fine before you ca! You killed her! That b*tch maidservant, Qian Qing, must be Jian Qing! You hard Xin to avenge that b*tch, right?! You b*tch, you’ll die a horrible death for this!”
After saying that, Lady Zhang rushed over, intending to strangle Yu Yunxi.
“Get lost!”
Yu Yunxi flung Lady Zhang away with one hand. Because she used her internal energy, Lady Zhang was sent crashing against the wall and spat out blood.
Yu Yunxi looked at Lady Zhang murderously. If it were not for the fact that she was holding Jian Xin, Lady Zhang would have died for sure.
Sensing Yu Yunxi’s murderous intent, Lady Zhang, who was in excruciating pain, got up tremblingly. She was extrely resentful, but she no longer dared to say anything. She did not expect Yu Yunxi to know martial arts.
At this mont, a huge commotion rang from outside. It sounded as though the reinforcents had arrived.
Upon hearing this, Jian Zhong’s eyes lit up imdiately as he exclaid, “The reinforcents from Prince Rui’s Residence are here!”
‘The reinforcents are here?’ Yu Yunxi raised her head and laughed mockingly.
The sound of fighting rang from outside for a while before the door was finally kicked open, and the bandits rushed in.
“Damn it! You really called for reinforcents. Even if I die today, I’ll drag you down with !”
The bandit who spoke was the one who captured Yu Yunxi earlier. He cursed and ordered the others to capture everyone.
“I’ve been waiting for this mont for a long ti,” Yu Yunxi said coldly. Her eyes shone murderously again, making her look like a demon.
The bandit was shocked, too afraid to act.
Yu Yunxi carried Jian Xin with both hands. She lowered her head to look at Jian Xin’s thin face as she suppressed her bitterness and said softly, “I’ll bring you ho.”
‘I’ll bring you ho to a place without responsibility, deception, and betrayal.. ‘
Yu Yunxi walked out step by step before she finally saw the scene outside clearly.
More than half of the bandits had already been suppressed. There were a few of them who were still fighting like trapped beasts.
Feng Weirii was dressed in silver armor and sat atop a horse. Many soldiers stood behind him. He looked rather awe-inspiring at this mont.
Upon seeing Feng Weirui, Lady Zhang was delighted. She cried out excitedly, “Prince Rui, please save us!”
Feng Weirui ignored Lady Zhang and looked at Yu Yunxi with a sharp gaze.
‘I didn’t expect that she’s really here…’
Qian Qing had just subdued a bandit with her sword. When she looked up and saw Yu Yunxi, she sighed in relief. “County Princess!”
‘Fortunately, the County Princess is fine!’
However, as soon as this thought appeared in Qian Qing’s mind, she noticed the person in Yu Yunxi’s arms.
‘Is that… Sister?’
A foreboding feeling rose in Qian Qing’s heart imdiately.
Yu Yunxi smiled bitterly as she said in a trembling voice, “Qian Qing, I’m sorry. I failed to protect her…’
At this mont, Yu Yunxi did not feel like the female general who commanded 100,000 soldiers in Xinan nor did she feel like the doctor who could save the dying and heal the wounded with her silver needles. At this mont, she was just a helpless ordinary person. For the first ti in five years, she felt so helpless. She wanted to save Jian Xin, but she failed.
Qian Qing stumbled back a few steps when she heard Yu Yunxi’s words. Her heart trembled as she stared at Yu Yunxi in disbelief. She kept shaking her head and muttering, “No, no…”
Yu Yunxi gritted her teeth and said, “Qian Qing, I was wrong. I made a mistake the mont I asked you to call for reinforcents. This mountain is the Third Prince’s territory…’
If Princess Consort Rui died in the territory of Prince An, the Third Prince, the Emperor would definitely be furious and punish Prince An.. At that ti, the person who would benefit most was none other than Prince Rui!
