The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife: The Sly Lady

“Who is there?” Hearing the sound, the master flied out of the room with a roar before drawing his sword towards the assassins clad in black mercilessly. The blade in his hand was gleaming in the depth of night.

With an eye contact, the four assassins in black leaped into the air at the same time before unsheathing their swords shining with cold light and lunging to the man ferociously.

It was totally impossible for the man to launch his attack when fighting against four enemies at the same time. He exerted himself to defend against their sharp moves by wielding his sword violently. While taking steps back, he howled in rage before pulling back the sword tightly pressed by the enemies abruptly with all his strength and drew it at the assassins relentlessly.

With a clang produced by the collision of swords, the assassins in black were still intact, while a piece of cloth torn down from one sleeve of the man’s inner clothes was floating to the ground slowly…

As the man, blood rushing to his cheeks out of anger, planned to wield his sword again, one of the assassins in black kicked squarely on his chest, knocking him heavily to the ground two or three meters away, his rough face turning slightly pale…

“Master…Master…” With the voice full of panic resounding in the air, the butler followed by a large group of menservants and guards hurried here.

Raising their eyebrows, the assassins in black launched punches at the butler and the guards, thumping them to the ground successively. They were whining in pain, covering their chests as well as arms with their hands…

Making eye contacts with each other, the assassins in black couldn’t help despising their enemies. They were so useless that even couldn’t bear a single punch!

With their tiptoes lightly touching the ground, all the assassins flied off the yard in an instant!

As their shadows faded into the distance in the night sky, the man’s face turned livid in anger. Four strange assassins broke into his houses before giving him a good bit for no reason and disappearing without a trace. How weird it was!

Standing on the roof, Murong Xue squinted at General Lu and Qi scrambling to their feet with fiery red faces and leaving in a huff. It seemed that they had nothing to do with the shadow guards. Her next destination was Prince Jing’s Mansion.

As it turned dark, Prince Jing’s Mansion was still ablaze with light.

The senior Prince Jing was sitting at the octagonal pavilion located before the artificial hill. Sipping the top-level wine to the gentle refreshing breeze, he saw his wife coming up surrounded by maids out of the corner of his eye. “Where is Yichen?” He asked casually.

“In his study, dealing with some business,” the senior princess said gently, and added after a period of silence, “Yuyan can no longer see anything!”

The senior Prince Jing responded expressionlessly while sipping his wine, seemingly having no interest in continuing the topic.

Her house was destroyed. Qin Yuyan was also seriously injured. On a second thought, Ye Yichen decided to bring her to his Mansion. Considering she was badly injured in order to protect Ye Yichen from the fatal poison, sebior Prince Jing allowed her to live here.

The old Princess Jing sat slowly on the opposite side of her husband before saying in a low voice, “Yuyan turned blind because of Yichen. She truly loves our son…”

“What are you trying to say?” Prince Jing cast a glimpse of her, a hint of impatience skimming across his eyes.

The senior Princess Jing smiled unnaturally, “Since Yuyan has been blind, it’s impossible for her to marry into another decent family. We might as well let Yichen marry her…”

“Have you forgotten how she poisoned me earlier? How dare you accept such an evil daughter-in-law?” Senior Prince Jing glared sidelong at his wife with his eyes full of contempt.

“Yuyan must have lost her mind then. I promise she will never make those mistakes again.” The senior Princess Jing tried her best to put in a good word for Qin Yuyan. It was natural for her to hate Qin Yuyan, for she nearly poisoned her husband to death, however, her anger dispersed at the thought of Qin’s infatuation for her son, as well as preventing her son from the fatal poison…

Senior Prince Jing snorted in contempt. “You believe what she said?”

Though not acquainted with her, he had already seen through Qin Yuyan’s character. Good at plotting against others, she, wiling to achieve her own goals by any available means, was surely untrustworthy.

“Nor do I believe her words completely. But I know as long as she loves Yichen, she would definitely not harm his parents! Greatly indebted to her, Yichen would surely return her favor by marrying her.” She murmured with a hint of dark gleam skimming across her eyes.

“As long as I am breathing, it’s impossible for Qin Yuyan to marry into our mansion!” Senior Prince Jing said emphatically, his face suddenly turning grim.

“Why are you giving Yichen a hard time?” The senior Princess Jing glared at her husband, her eyes burning with fury.

“Because he is too foolish to find himself an adequate wife? If he had obeyed my order to marry Murong Xue, none ofl these disgusting things would have happened!” The senior Prince Jing complained, his august voice filled with disappointment.

Senior Princess Jing frowned at her husband. “Would you please stop mentioning Murong Xue? Yichen doesn’t like her at all!”

“That’s why I said he is such a terrible picker!” The senior Prince Jing howled before rising to his feet and leaving in vigorous strides. “I will never allow Yichen to marry Qin Yuyan.” His august voice resounded in the wind.

Watching his figure fading into distance, the senior Princess Jing gritted her pearly teeth. How could he be so stubborn that he shared no concern about his son’s happiness just for a single mistake Yuyan had made before? What a ruthless father!

Stepping out of the garden, senior Prince Jing walked in vigorous strides along the path paved with black pebbles. Suddenly, he detected a strange smell. With cold gleam skimming across his eyes, he held his breath before launching a heavy punch towards the direction where the smell came from.

Upon a huge thump, a hole appeared on the surface of a hard stone. Four assassins in black leaped out from behind and made a lunge for Prince Jing ferociously with long swords in their hands.

Intending to kill him? How naive they were!

With the barest hint of a smile on his face, senior Prince Jing intended to thwack the assassins. However, his strength dispersed all of a sudden, and he felt dizzy with his eyelids that were too heavy to be lifted. Soon he collapsed on the ground and passed out.

As soon as the assassins were about to snatch him, two invisible guards in black turned up from nowhere before thrusting them relentlessly with their gleaming swords.

The assassins, cold gleam flashing in their eyes, was in fight against the invisible guards, deafening clang resounding in the dark night…

“Assassins…We have assassins here…Someone catch them…” The guards and the other invisible guards of the Prince Jing’s Mansion all rushed inside to besiege the enemies as soon as they heard the news.

Not far on the roof, Murong Xue squinted at the assassins and invisible guards in the violent combat…
