"You should be glad that you are pregnant with this Prince's child." Prince Yu noticed her expression and his face sunk, "Otherwise you would not be able to pass through so easily today." He appreciated Shen Qing's somewhat fearful gaze but his mind thought of another pair of clear and calm eyes and a sudden rage surged in his heart. Prince Yu looked at Shen Qing and slowly said, "However, after you give birth to this Prince's child, this Prince will not treat you badly. There are many guards in this Prince's residence and these guards went through fire and water for this Prince. Since you are this Prince's wife, you should also help this Prince to comfort them …"
Shen Qing's mind buzzed and she almost fainted. The horror in Prince Yu's words made her think of the future and she did not even have the courage to live on.
"Oh, this Prince will definitely treat you well." The gentler Prince Yu's tone was, the more fanatical his eyes were. Even the two maids in front of him were trembling.
"Tremble for what?" Prince Yu suddenly frowned unhappily and was about to speak when the maid on the left suddenly staggered and fell onto Prince Yu's body. A pair of jade arms just happened to hug Prince Yu's head in her arms. Before Prince Yu could react, the other maid suddenly pulled out a hairpin from her head and pierced it into Prince Yu's throat.
Prince Yu of the First Rank screamed but he was not someone to be trifled with. With a 'hong' sound, the two maids were thrown onto the ground by him. He also had martial arts skills and this move was very ruthless. The two maids struggled on the ground for a few times and were no longer breathing.
Shen Qing, who was at the side, was already dumbstruck and hid under the table in a panic. Prince Yu pulled out the hairpin from his throat. Even though the hairpin was not deeply inserted, there was still a lot of blood. Prince Yu of the First Rank scolded and shouted loudly, "Guards! Guards! "
A guard quickly answered and came in. Prince Yu kicked the two corpses on the ground, "What plaything is this? Check who it is."
"Yes." That guard bowed his head and when Prince Yu turned his head back, he heard a 'chi' sound. He lowered his head and saw a silver knife with blood stains on his chest.
It passed right through his chest.
Just now the guard pulled out his sword and Prince Yu's body was unsteady. He seemed to want to call for help but after a few steps, he fell down with a 'dong' sound.
The tip of the saber shone brightly, reflecting the large bloodstains. His technique was extremely skillful, as if he was slaughtering a pig or sheep, killing with a single slash without any unnecessary movements.
The guard glanced at Prince Yu's corpse and then looked at Chen Qing who was hiding under the table shivering, "You are Chen Qing?"
"Yes, warrior … Are you sent by second brother to save me?" Shen Qing's eyes lit up as she looked at the other party.
The guard didn't say anything and turned around to leave.
Shen Qing had some doubts in her heart and wanted to go out but after thinking about it, she was finally afraid of facing Prince Yu's corpse in the room. She took some gold and silver from the table and wrapped it in a cloth and was about to leave.
As soon as he opened the door, he almost tripped. Under the dim light of the lantern, the corpses of the guards lying in front of the door were especially shocking. "Ah!" Shen Qing cried out in alarm and looked outside.
In the darkness, there seemed to be a solemn figure quickly passing through and the heavy sound of falling to the ground sounded. Every sound made one's heart turn colder. The residence of Prince Yu was like a gloomy hell. The snowstorm made one unable to see the situation outside but the thick smell of blood was like a big net, firmly covering one's head.
It seemed that even the snow had turned into a scarlet red.
…
Western garden of the Shen residence.
Bai Lu closed the windows again and said, "The snowstorm outside is really big. The windows have been blown open several times. It is quite scary."
"Exactly." Shuang Jiang smiled, "Heard from the elders that this kind of weather is the Heavens wanting to punish those sinners. It seems that this time the sinner must have committed a very big mistake. Such a big snowstorm had not been encountered for many years. "
"What is Young Lady looking at?" Jing Zhe asked, "Are you still thinking about the wedding banquet?"
Ever since returning to the residence in the evening, Shen Miao had been sitting in front of the table. One did not know what she was thinking about as she sat there until the sky turned dark. One did not know why but Jing Zhe felt that Shen Miao seemed to be waiting for something.
What was she waiting for?
Shen Miao shook her head, "Continue watching."
Watch? Gu Yu and Jing Zhe looked at each other in dismay. It was pitch black outside and nothing could be seen clearly. What could Shen Miao see?
Shen Miao's eyes drooped down. The lights in the room were tranquil and the snowstorm was killing outside. In one night, how many people died in the Yellow Springs?
Shen Yuan was right. She never left a way out for herself, so she would not leave a way out for others.
Slender fingers unhurriedly tapped on the edge of the table, as if it was a melodious rhythm that made one think of the strange ballad sung by the sinful women in the Cold Palace.
What ballad was being sung?
It was sung that good and evil would eventually be repaid and the Heavenly Way would reincarnate.
