Chapter 11 Sacrificing Chaoyang to bring down Prince Yu
"She is quite smart." The Queen Mother then looked at Chaoyang. "It's a pity, she has bad luck."
Chaoyang's heart felt like it was in her throat all of a sudden. She was not a fool. The conspiracy and calculation in the palace was nothing more than bloodless killing.
She entered the palace with Xiao Junze today, and she was afraid that there would be no way out.
The pain in his heart was so severe that Xiao Junze must have known for a long time that she would never come back...
"I heard that you are not the daughter of the Shen family. A pariah who pretended to be a pariah and married into the prince's palace should have been sentenced to death. How could the Ai family spare your life..." After a moment of silence, the Queen Mother spoke again, her voice cold.
Although she is a terminally ill person, it is not easy for a woman to sit comfortably in the position of Queen Mother.
The pressure remains the same.
"The Queen Mother, please forgive me, Chaoyang... Chaoyang is also forced to do so, the Queen Mother please spare Chaoyang!" Chaoyang begged in panic, looking at Xiao Junze pleadingly. "The Queen Mother, please forgive me, Chaoyang's humble status will not pose a threat to the prince, please let Chaoyang go...
"
They have obviously already agreed...
Chaoyang doesn't ask Xiao Junze to be kind to him, he just wants to spare her life, just one life.
She cannot die.
Xiao Junze frowned and glanced at Chaoyang, his eyes condensed.
In his eyes, everyone except Murong Ling can be used.
What's more, she is a maid who has been married off.
Her status was as low as dust. If she could be used to bring down Shen Qingzhou, Xiao Junze would not hesitate at all.
"Shen Qingzhou is Prince Yu's right hand. If it is not cut off, there will be endless troubles." The Queen Mother said lightly. She dared to say this in front of Chaoyang. It was nothing more than trust or... In her eyes, Chaoyang was already a dead person.
.
Of course Chaoyang knew that the Queen Mother and Xiao Junze would not trust her, so she clenched her hands trembling all over. "Queen Mother, Prince Li, Chaoyang is willing to obey, please spare Chaoyang's life."
The Queen Mother glanced at Chaoyang thoughtfully and raised her eyebrows. "Really? He is a smart person who understands current affairs so well."
Chaoyang knocked his head on the ground, listening to his own heartbeat in panic.
She can't die...
"I heard that Prince Yu wanted to do something inappropriate to you on the way here? Did you hit him?" The Queen Mother coughed softly and looked a little pale.
"He is a prince and you are a humble maid. If you hit the prince, what crime should you do?"
Xiao Junze never spoke, and the air pressure condensed.
Chaoyang knew that Xiao Junze would not help her, so she did not dare to breathe.
In this deep palace, killing is done without blood.
If she wants to live, it will be difficult...
But, mother, she wants to live.
She doesn't want to die.
She also wants to take her mother back to the Western Regions, back to the place that belongs to them.
"Your Majesty..." Chaoyang breathed tremblingly and looked up at Xiao Junze in horror. She had probably guessed the Queen Mother's intention.
Xiao Junze sat condescendingly and refused to even look at her.
"Come here, take the princess to Prince Yu's residence and apologize to Prince Yu." The Queen Mother said calmly and asked the palace people to take Chaoyang away.
The so-called going to apologize to Prince Yu means that Chaoyang will deliver it to his door.
If you want to live, that's up to Prince Yu.
Prince Yu has the final say as to how he will die.
If Chaoyang is killed by Prince Yu, Xiao Junze can just use this incident to bring down Prince Yu. After all, Chaoyang's identity is that she is the princess personally given by His Majesty.
But if Chaoyang left Prince Yu's palace safely, then the Queen Mother and Prince Li would not be able to keep her, reveal her identity, and bring down Shen Qingzhou.
In short, sacrificing her as a cheap maidservant will bring no loss.
"Queen Mother, please spare my life." Chaoyang begged for mercy in panic and knelt at Xiao Junze's feet. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save Chaoyang. You promised to let Chaoyang go..."
She had already told Xiao Junze what she knew, and Xiao Junze had also taken precautions against Prince Yu in advance. Was it because she was of no use value to get rid of her at this time?
This man is really cruel.
"Let you go?" Xiao Junze narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to pinch Chaoyang's chin. "Aside from this face, what other value do you have for me to keep you?"
Chaoyang's heart was beating hard, his eyes were full of pleading tears, and his breathing was hot.
Xiao Junze's heart tightened inexplicably, but that strange feeling made him extremely disgusted.
"The witch..." A witch who is good at charming can't be kept.
