Chapter 141 This is the first time she has cried for herself.
Chapter 141 This is the first time she has cried for herself.
Zhai Muling was startled by him, her eyes welling up with tears. "Even if you're not the Crown Prince, you're still a Prince."
"There is still a wonderful life ahead of you to enjoy and live a carefree life."
Why are you so fixated on me?
"What do power and status have to do with me?" Jun Yinghuai said disdainfully.
He already possessed it in his past life.
But she alone never truly possessed it.
Thinking of this, Jun Yinghuai's eyes turned mad.
He reached out and embraced Zhai Muling, ignoring her struggles, and pressed his cool lips close to her earlobe, saying each word clearly:
"Mu Ling, all I ask for in this life is you."
"You should have been mine long ago."
The gloomy corners of his eyes carried an unyielding desire.
Jun Yinghuai's long, slender hand reached down to her neck and began to unbutton her clothes, one button at a time.
"What do you want to do?!"
Zhai Muling screamed and tried to dodge, but he grabbed her waist tightly and she couldn't move.
"You can't do this to me!" she said in despair.
Scalding tears fell onto Jun Yinghuai's hand. He stopped his fingertips moving and raised his hand to wipe away her tears.
"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt much."
Zhai Muling's eyes turned red with fright. She opened her mouth and bit his palm hard until she tasted a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. Only then did she let go with some lingering fear.
Jun Yinghuai, however, seemed to feel no pain at all, his expression remaining completely unchanged.
"Right now, do you wish you could kill me?"
He stared at her bare neck.
Her collar was open, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
The scene of her suicide in her past life suddenly flashed into her mind.
Jun Yinghuai reached out and smeared the blood on his palm onto her neck, instantly staining her delicate, fair skin bright red.
He stared at it intently.
If she had the chance to kill herself, would she do it?
He got up, untied the chains on her wrists, and placed a dagger in her hand.
"If you hate me, then kill me."
Zhai Muling's face was covered in tears, her hands trembling as she gripped the dagger. He forcibly held her hands and pointed it at his chest.
She shook her head frantically, "No...no..."
She didn't want to kill anyone!
But the sharp blade, still drawn by him, slowly approached his chest until it tore through his clothes.
Zhai Muling was completely bewildered, watching helplessly as the knife tip pierced his body, his clothes soaked in blood.
Her hands were shaking violently.
"Why...why do you torture me..."
Jun Yinghuai watched with great interest, and only when he saw tears welling up in her frightened eyes did he release her hand.
The dagger fell slunk onto the bed.
Jun Yinghuai laughed out loud. He hugged the distraught Zhai Muling, buried his head in her bare neck, and inhaled her scent deeply.
"I knew it, you wouldn't kill me."
He held her hand and pressed it against his wound until his blood stained her palm before letting go.
"You'll never escape me in your entire life." His languid voice enticed her.
Zhai Muling trembled as she opened her hand, looking at the bloodstains on her palm.
His eyes gradually became vacant.
You can't escape it for the rest of your life...
……
Xianning Palace.
Qiu Jin rubbed Consort Shu's shoulder. "Your Majesty, a scout has reported that the deposed Crown Prince has kidnapped Miss Zhai and is currently hiding in the capital."
"We've already found out where they're hiding."
Consort Shu opened her eyes, a thin, cold smile playing on her lips.
"Even Jun Yinghuai has met his end!"
"Why give up being a proper prince and instead become a rat in the street?" Chunlan said with some disdain as she served Consort Shu a cup of tea.
Consort Shu accepted the teacup in high spirits and took a sip of the tea with her crimson lips.
“I haven’t settled my score with him yet, and he’s already delivered himself to my door.”
The Empress Dowager's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Others may not know, but she knows very well that the reason she has been able to gain the Emperor's favor over the years is because she resembles Jun Yinghuai's deceased mother.
She had seen firsthand how much the Emperor valued this son.
As long as Jun Yinghuai is around, Qing'er becomes a greater threat.
She didn't dare to do it before.
Now that the emperor and his father are estranged, she takes this opportunity to eliminate this potential threat!
A murderous glint flashed in Consort Shu's eyes.
"Send a team to kill him and Zhai Muling!"
Anyone who opposes Qing'er must die!
She gripped the teacup tightly with her fingers, causing the tea inside to slosh around and spill a little.

A flash of golden light appeared, and Zhai Rongyu appeared in the secret chamber.
At that moment, Jun Yinghuai was undressing Zhai Muling. Her eyes were glazed over, and she no longer resisted.
The outer garment was slowly removed and thrown under the bed.
Zhai Rongyu was furious.
[This is truly a waterfall plunging three thousand feet; no one is more shameless than this lunatic!]
Hearing her heartfelt words, Zhai Muling's eyes lit up with hope. She looked at the person who had come and exclaimed in surprise, "Rong'er!"
Her voice trembled and trembled with sobs.
When Jun Yinghuai saw Zhai Rongyu, his sinister eyes instantly turned ruthless. He picked up the dagger on the bed and held it close to Zhai Muling's neck.
"Zhai Rongyu, it's you again!"
His eyes were wary.
"Jun Yinghuai! I'm giving you one last chance, release my sister!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
She held a talisman between her fingers, ready to unleash her power.
Jun Yinghuai sneered and pressed the sharp blade against Zhai Muling's neck, causing Zhai Rongyu's heart to leap into her throat.
This lunatic is in a late stage of his illness; he might actually do something to hurt his sister!
I need to find an opportunity.
“If you take one more step closer, I will kill her first, and then die with her!” Jun Yinghuai said sinisterly.
boom--
The door to the secret room was pushed open, and a group of assassins swarmed in.
"The orders are: leave no survivors!"
"kill!"
Things happened too fast.
Zhai Rong and the talisman flew out, knocking several assassins to the ground.
There seemed to be many people outside the secret room.
They swarmed in like a swarm of bees!
Zhai Rong shook the Hunyuan Bell in her hand, and sound waves rippled outwards from her. The assassins clutched their heads and howled in pain.
Several longswords clattered to the ground.
The assassins who were far away had not yet been affected, and they raised their swords to stab Jun Yinghuai and Zhai Muling!
Jun Yinghuai's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he wrapped Zhai Muling in a brocade quilt.
He parried the attack with his dagger.
He already had a chest injury, and he gradually became outmatched.
An assassin spotted an opening and swiftly thrust his sword towards Zhai Muling!
"Sister, be careful!" Zhai Rongyu exclaimed in alarm, quickly forming a hand seal and throwing a talisman at the assassin.
But it's too late.
puff-
The longsword pierced his body.
"Jun Yinghuai!!" Zhai Muling screamed, throwing off the quilt to catch the person blocking her way.
The talisman was pasted onto the assassin's body, and he fell straight to the ground.
Jun Yinghuai pulled the sword from his chest with one hand, his clothes completely soaked in blood. With his last bit of strength, he threw the sword to the ground, where it plunged into the assassin's body.
The assassin died instantly.
Jun Yinghuai collapsed onto Zhai Muling, seeing her tightly hugging him, her face covered in tears.
A weak smile bloomed on his pale face as he reached out to wipe away her tears. A bloodstain, bright red and glaring, stained his fair skin.
"Mu Ling, don't cry."
"I don't feel any pain."
This was the first time she had cried for herself.
It's not because of hatred.
Zhai Muling burst into tears.
"why why……"
