Chapter 1418: A Murder Triggered by a Melon Seed!
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Jingyu’s beautiful face and pitiful appearance immediately made the ministers who followed Xiao Jingrui pity her.
Lord Ping thought for a moment and said,” Your Highness, perhaps Jiang Zhennan’s fate as a jinx is really strong. Otherwise, how could such a small watermelon seed make the princess choke? For the sake of the big picture, let’s let the princess choose another candidate.”
Another young official also echoed,” Your Highness, I agree with what Lord Ping said! ”
Following that, several other officials also echoed.
It was Xiao Jingrui who did not believe it. He said sternly,” This is just an accident. You don’t have to make a fuss! And you guys, continue to take care of the princess. If the princess is hurt in any way, you will be held accountable! “The last sentence was directed at the people protecting Xiao Jingyu.
Hearing His Highness’s order, the faces of those protecting Xiao Jingyu paled, and they immediately felt a sense of despair.
The princess choked on her food. Was this something they could protect?
“Yes. sir!” However. they still had to obey the master’s orders!
Xiao Jingrui immediately exited Xiao Jingyu’s room, leaving behind a group of people who looked at each other helplessly.
It seemed that the Second Prince did not believe the jinx at all.
“Princess, don’t worry. We will try our best to convince the Second Prince!” Lord Ping comforted Xiao Jingyu.
However, Xiao Jingyu’s face was ashen.
She knew very well that Xiao Jingrui was absolutely a ruthless person.
It was impossible for him to ruin all his plans just because of this accident.
She was once a noble daughter and sister who was loved by her father, the crown prince, and her brother.
At the same time, she knew very well that their love for her was only because of her looks and talent. She had great value.
This time, she received an order from her father and her brother to choose a man in Longyan Country.
Of course, this man must also be someone of value to them.
The emperor, the crown prince, the prince’s grandson, or the princes and ministers.
Although she was unwilling, she knew that she could not resist her father and brother.
However, she only knew the truth when she arrived there.
It turned out that her father, the crown prince, and her brothers had already been controlled by her second brother before they set off for the Longyan Kingdom.
On the first day of her arrival at the Longyan Country’s Courier Station, she was still disdainful of her Second Imperial Brother. She was certain that as long as her Crown Prince Imperial Brother ascended the throne, she would teach him a lesson.
However, it was not until the next day that she realized that her father and brother were under Xiao Jingrui’s control. Most of the officials in the court were already Xiao Jingrui’s people, and the ministers who came to Longyan State were also Xiao Jingrui’s people.
She found it unbelievable, but it seemed to be within her expectations.
Previously, she had clearly sensed the ruthlessness of this Second Imperial Brother. How could he not have ambitions?
However, the officials in the court had already become his people, and he, Xiao Jingrui, was almost enthroned.
Unknowingly, he had become the king of a generation. Such a person was really too terrifying.
Xiao Jingyu listened to what Lord Ping said and still held a glimmer of hope in
his heart.
She cried and thanked him.” Thank you, Lord Ping!’
After returning to his room, Xiao Jingwei rubbed his thumb ring and thought,” Is this a pure coincidence, or did Lin Yuelan orchestrate this? If she used tricks, how did she do it?”
Xiao Jingrui found that he was more and more interested in Lin Yuelan..
