Heroine Saves A Gentleman

Cheng Shijiu coldly humphed, Ive been the head of the east palace for a decade or so. Everyone knows that Ill be the future emperor. Yet, they want me to submit defeat to my originally useless younger brother. How can I accept this? As long as I get rid of you today and then control the nobles entering the palace today, I can request for the emperor father to abdicate. I bet that he has no choice but to do so by then.

Dont even think about it! The Jin Countrys court is full of loyal officials. How could they possibly let a rebel like you have your way?!

Youre only saying this because you have Yu Familys military support. Lin Bingren walked out from behind Cheng Shijiu.

Ever since you destroyed the Lin Family, the Crown Prince had sent me to secretly ask the Liao Country for aid. Originally, we planned on capturing the Champion Marquis in order to restrict the Yu Family. What a pity that one careless mistake and you messed things up for us.

He waved his hand towards the north and said, But its fine. The emperor of the Liao Country promises to send 100,000 soldiers the moment the capital is in chaos. Hed help the Crown Prince ascend to the throne. By then, Your Highness still has control of the country. He just needs to cede sixteen provinces to the Liao Country. Isnt that better than submitting to you though?

He gradually pulled out an arrow from the quiver. He slowly got into position and pulled the bow gradually, smiling. He aimed it towards Chen Shizhao in the net.

The cold and icy iron arrow shone in the sunlight for a second before aiming straight towards Cheng Shizhaos face.

He clenched his teeth, unwilling to resign to this ending.

At the last moment, a palm blocked the deadly arrow for him.

The iron arrow penetrated their palm before stopping.

Splashes of blood sprinkled Cheng Shizhaos face.

His brothers blood.

The boiling blood branded his heart and made it ache.

Yu Xingzhi stood in front of Cheng Shizhao.

Lin Bingren revealed a surprised and mocking strange expression.

Oh hey, let me see who it is. He said.

Yu Xingzhi. He tched and shook his head. Why are you so stupid? I originally wanted to seek you out to play with you later on. Who knew that you anxiously revealed yourself before I could seek you out. Saving me all this effort.

Champion Marquis, why did you rush here? Compared to Lin Bingren, the Crown Prince was calmer and asked the crucial question.

If you dont want anyone to know, then dont do it. Yu Xingzhi pulled out the arrow and placed his bloody hand behind his back, slowly saying this.

Your Highness Crown Prince, since you can assign a spy to my side, do you think the Yu Family wouldnt do that? Right now, my father and brother are leading the imperial army into the palace to protect the emperor. How many people do you have? Even if you have a few officials assisting you, its the same as attempting the impossible.

This official advises you to act in the nick of time and pull back. His Majesty might punish you leniently since you guys are father and son.

Cheng Shijius heart felt cold. Since Yu Xingzhi had received the news and arrived that quickly, then the others

His plan had fallen through and been exposed earlier than he thought. There are some things leaving his control as well. He started to panic in his heart.

Lin Bingren narrowed his eyes and said coldly, Dont believe in his lies. If he knew about the news in advance, he wouldnt have come by himself and blocked the arrow with his palm for Cheng Shizhao.

He is just stalling for time. As long as Your Highness gets rid of the two of them in a decisive manner, we can still act according to plan. We have enough time.

I didnt come alone. Yu Xingzhi looked at him calmly.

Lin Bingrens heart suddenly tightened. This was the instinct when a prey was being stalked by a wild beast.

He turned his head around stiffly and saw a woman standing on the rooftop not far from him.

That woman wore pure white clothes and no hair accessories. Her hair was casually tied up into a bun behind her.

She stood against the wind and held a bow and arrow in her hand, glancing coldly at him.
