The quiet imperial study room, coupled with the strong scent of ambergris, made the few people sitting there feel drowsy. Suddenly, there was a sound of fighting outside the door, which startled everyone.
Emperor Xiaoxian looked at Wan Cheng and motioned him to go to the door to check the situation. Wan Cheng immediately walked to the door with small steps and opened a crack.
In the house, Zhan Wenlin and Concubine De, who were originally sitting at the door, also walked towards Emperor Xiaoxian under the protection of Zhan Wenxuan and Zhan Wenyu.
After all, that place is farthest from the door, and there are many wooden shelves filled with books around it, which can play a certain blocking role.
Just as a few people retreated to Emperor Xiaoxian's side, the next second they heard the sound of the door panel being knocked open, followed by the sound of falling to the ground at noon, and Wan Cheng's scream.
Everyone followed the sound and saw that Wan Cheng was lying on the ground, with a man in black tied up on top of him. From the looks of it, the man in black was probably breathing his last breath.
The door panels fell on both sides, and Su Wan walked in first, followed by two masked men. However, the strong ambergris in the royal study made her frown.
"Oh, it hurts our family so much -" Wan Cheng remembered, but his whole body hurt so much. There was such a strong person pressing on him, and he didn't have any strength at all.
Besides, he never thought that he just opened the door a crack and took a look at the situation outside, and then he suddenly suffered such a misfortune. He almost killed him and went to report it in front of the Lord of Hell.
"Su Wan, you are brave!" Zhan Wenyu saw the person coming clearly, took a step forward, and shouted sternly. As he spoke, he had already mobilized his internal strength and was ready to take action at any time.
"You don't have to be bold, I have already broken into the imperial study. Such proof, can't you see it?" Su Wan smiled coldly and replied nonchalantly. Even though she had already noticed that Zhan Wenyu's target was her.
, and she didn't flinch at all.
Su Wan withdrew her gaze from Zhan Wenyu, then scanned the faces of the others one by one, and finally landed on Zhan Wenlin.
Zhan Wenlin saw the anger and indifference in Su Wan's eyes and couldn't help but hide behind Emperor Xiaoxian.
Unfortunately, Su Wan's gaze seemed to be fixed on her, and no matter where she hid, she could not hide. But looking at so many people around her, she did not want to be overwhelmed by Su Wan's momentum.
Even if the people around Su Wan attack, Zhan Wenxuan and Zhan Wenyu's love for her can still protect her!
"Su Wan, it was you who pushed this princess off the cliff five years ago. Now this princess is just seeking revenge for herself. Besides, you should have died five years ago. You should be grateful for allowing you to live for five more years.
Thank you for your kindness!"
"Zhan Wenlin, don't you understand yet?" Su Wan raised the corner of her mouth, showing a smile that did not reach her eyes, and looked at Zhan Wenlin with undisguised sarcasm. "If I had pushed you to fall,
Ya, I will definitely not let you live until now!"
"After all, as long as you take that step, no matter what the outcome is, you can't escape death in the end. However, for my own selfish reasons, I deliberately said that I pushed you. In this case, I might as well kill you directly now, which is considered a pull.
Got a backer!"
"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. If I have the guts to enter the palace today, I won't be afraid of the Emperor's attack. Not to mention that distant water can't save the near fire, even the secret guard sent by the Emperor is the only one left!"
With that said, Su Wan stood aside and exposed the half-dead secret guard. It happened that Wan Cheng also pushed the secret guard away with difficulty, endured the pain all over his body, and stood up tremblingly.
After seeing the man on the ground clearly, he felt bad. He stretched out his hand to detect the secret guard's breath. As expected, the secret guard had completely died.
"Your Majesty—Your Majesty—" Wan Cheng said to Emperor Xiaoxian with a bitter look on his face: "There is no one left—"
"So what if there are thousands of troops outside? Now the most important people in Zhaoyue are all here. I can guarantee that as long as I kill a few of you, Zhaoyue will cease to exist in less than half a year!"
Su Wan already knew clearly about Zhaoyue's treasury. Moreover, when she said these words, she was definitely not as simple as threatening, but telling a fact...
