“Treason? When did Your Highness betray the country? He’s the one who protected the vast territory of the Great Cheng Dynasty! The prosperity of Jiang Du City is all thanks to Your Highness’s leadership. How can he be accused of treason? Even if there were such allegations, they would be baseless accusations from your side!”
Su Yingxue shot back fiercely at Chu Chengye.
Chu Chengye felt extremely indignant. He watched as Chu Yihan, escorted by Su Yingxue, was taken away, and his anger burned within him.
No!
Even if it cost him his life today, he couldn’t allow Chu Yihan to leave safely!
“Men, attack! Kill them all and leave no one alive!”
Chu Chengye bellowed.
The Imperial Guards, who had been concerned for Chu Chengye’s safety, immediately began to stir.
With added force, Zi Wei’s blade opened a gash in Chu Chengye’s neck, causing blood to spurt out.
But instead of being driven back, the Imperial Guards began advancing slowly towards them.
Chu Yihan shielded Su Yingxue behind him. “Go, leave this to me,” he said in a hoarse voice.
“No! Your Highness just had an episode, you can’t fight anymore!” Su Yingxue held Chu Yihan tightly. She wouldn’t allow Chu Yihan to take action again.
She couldn’t bear to see Chu Yihan die before her eyes!
“Attack! Today, no matter what, I must capture Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue, dead or alive! Kill them!”
Chu Chengye, risking being held hostage by Zi Wei, continued to command the Imperial Guards. He threw his token, and the commander of the Imperial Guards picked it up. “By the Seventh Prince’s order, attack!”
The Imperial Guards quickly stormed the palace, and Chu Yihan was ready to step forward with his sword.
“Wait!” Su Yingxue shouted.
“You no longer want Chu Chengye’s life, do you? Fine, I’ll let you witness his torment until he dies and turns into a pool of pus and blood!”
Su Yingxue rushed to Chu Chengye, forced his mouth open, and shoved some medicine inside.
Chu Chengye was forced to swallow the medicine, his face turning purple. Shortly after, he collapsed to the ground, convulsing violently. His eyes bulged as he stared at Su Yingxue. “You ruthless woman, what have you done?!”
He felt as if his entire body was on fire, every nerve screaming in agony!
Before he could adjust to the searing pain, a chilling sensation spread from his body. It felt as if he had been submerged in ice, his blood freezing, his body stiffening.
“Cold… So cold!”
“Alt! No! It’s too hot! I’m going to die!”
“All! Su Yingxue…”
Kill her!
He had to kill her!
The Imperial Guards’ commander had initially intended to follow Chu Chengye’s orders and kill Chu Yihan, dead or alive!
But now, in so much pain, if he did indeed turn into a pool of pus and blood as Su Yingxue had said, there would be nobody to present to the emperor. They would surely be executed!
“What… Your Highness!”
What should they do?
Should they continue the attack?
“Kill… Him! Ah!”
Chu Chengye struggled desperately on the brink of death, his hair disheveled. But even in this state, he couldn’t let Chu Yihan off the hook.
With bloodshot eyes, he glared at Su Yingxue, hoarsely warning her, “You… You can’t escape! My ioo,ooo-strong army has surrounded you… You will die for sure!”
Even if it cost him his life!
Even if he turned into a puddle of pus and blood, he would take Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue down with him!
Su Yingxue furrowed her brows. Chu Chengye was certainly stubborn!
But she couldn’t let Chu Yihan die here.
“Don’t be afraid!”
“Don’t be afraid.”
The two men beside Su Yingxue spoke simultaneously. Chu Yihan’s voice was resolute, while Zi Wei’s voice was low and raspy.
