Forced love, an inescapable fate

Chapter 140 Love, Unbridled

Jiang Ci held a bloody sword in his hand, his eyes were red, and he approached the imperial concubine step by step, like a bloodthirsty killer.

Under his pressure, the imperial concubine was so frightened that she kept backing away.

"Jiang Ci, I'm telling you, don't mess around. I'm the Imperial Concubine, and I have the Prime Minister's Mansion behind me. If you dare to hurt me, you will definitely become an enemy of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, and His Majesty. His Majesty will not forgive you, you..."

Jiang Ci sneered a few times, and instead of looking at her, he looked at Nanny Jiang who was huddled on the ground pretending to be dead.

"What do you think, Your Majesty, if we use the death penalty on this ignorant servant?"

What he said made Nanny Jiang unable to contain her fear any longer. She opened her eyes and cried for mercy.

"Your Highness, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Save me. I did all this for Your Majesty..."

When the Imperial Concubine heard that she was about to give herself away, and saw that her people had not arrived yet, she spoke in panic.

"Damn you, slave! I only asked you to entertain the princess on my behalf. It was you who made the decision without authorization. You..."

Before she could finish her words, Jiang Ci's cold voice came again.

"No need to blame each other. You all deserve to die. No one can escape today."

After saying this, he swung the bloody sword in his hand towards the terrified Nanny Jiang.

With a scream, Nanny Jiang's feet were chopped off.

At this point, the bloody scene frightened all the palace maids kneeling in the hall to the point of fainting.

When the imperial concubine looked at the severed foot at her feet, her fear reached its peak.

At this moment, she finally realized that Jiang Ci was going to kill her.

He has gone crazy and has disregarded everything and wants to kill himself.

After cutting off Nanny Jiang's feet, Jiang Ci had a bloodthirsty smile on his face.

"Your Highness, who's next?"

The imperial concubine was so frightened that she kept backing away and tripped over her own dress.

Jiang Ci looked down at her. Just as he was about to swing the sword, many guards with swords rushed into the hall. When she saw them, the Imperial Concubine seemed to have found her backbone and almost roared.

"Quick, kill him, kill this madman."

The guards received the order and quickly surrounded Jiang Ci.

They are all deadpools raised by the imperial concubine, and have been hiding in the palace to prevent accidents.

Now that they have received the order, they will directly attack.

Jiang Ci seemed to have expected this. After looking around at the guards surrounding him, he stared straight at the imperial concubine who was being helped up by the palace servants and standing aside.

His eyes made the imperial concubine shudder.

It also made her determined to get rid of Jiang Ci at all costs today.

"A reward of ten thousand gold will be offered to anyone who kills him."

As soon as she gave the order, the guards no longer held back and quickly surrounded and attacked.

Everything that happened suddenly made Mu Qingli, who was shaking with pain all over, feel panicked.

She trembled and ordered Wanyue to put her down.

"Wanyue, put me down. This matter has become a big deal today. Go and help."

Wan Yue naturally refused. Her mission now was to protect Mu Qingli's safety.

But as more and more guards joined in, Wan Yue's expression changed.

Especially when the Imperial Noble Consort looked at them with a cold gaze, she had to make preparations.

"Princess, I'm afraid the imperial concubine is going to be ruthless. I'll put you down first. Just sit here and don't move. I'm here, and I won't let anyone hurt you again."

Mu Qingli nodded slightly.

As the sounds of fighting in the hall became more and more intense, her eyes couldn't help but look at Jiang Ci who was surrounded by many guards.

Although there were many guards surrounding him, even she, an outsider with no martial arts experience, could see that Jiang Ci was able to deal with those people with ease.

It turns out that his kung fu is so good. After being together for so long, this is the first time I see him fight personally.

Jiang Ci naturally discovered the Imperial Concubine's intention, and his hands moved much faster. In just a moment, many guards' bodies were lying in the hall.

Seeing that she couldn't capture him, the Imperial Noble Consort looked again at Mu Qingli who was protecting Wanyue, and gave orders to the guards in the palace.

"Kill Princess Qingli."

Afterwards, the guards' attack focus shifted to Mu Qingli, and Wanyue joined in with a sword, but always protected Mu Qingli behind him.

Seeing this, Jiang Ci quickly dealt with the guards around him, tiptoed lightly, and arrived beside Mu Qingli in a blink of an eye.

He spoke coldly.

"Leave no one behind."

"clear."

Although the imperial concubine had a large number of people on her side, they were still unable to withstand the two men who attacked with all their strength.

Seeing more and more of her men falling, the imperial concubine, who had just looked so confident, finally lost her composure.

She wanted to get rid of Jiang Ci, but she didn't know that Jiang Ci had no intention of letting her go.

Seeing that her men were no match for the enemy, she took advantage of the chaos and tried to escape with them.

She felt extremely regretful at this moment, but it was useless.

Jiang Ci picked up Mu Qingli again, with tenderness in his eyes, completely different from the bloodthirsty killer just now.

"Sister, it's almost over, hold on a little longer."

Mu Qingli looked up and saw the tenderness in his eyes, and finally saw the difference.

When he looked at her, there was a strong love in his eyes.

Yes, it is love.

Their eyes met, and the love that had been suppressed for so long finally became unbridled and fell directly into her eyes.

Despite the intense pain all over his body, Mu Qingli's heartbeat involuntarily quickened.

Fortunately, Jiang Ci quickly raised his head and looked at the imperial concubine who was about to escape from the palace. He spoke coldly.

"Wanyue, stop her."

At this time, the hall was filled with corpses lying in all directions. Just as the imperial concubine was about to step out of the hall door, Wanyue's sword was already in front of her.

She stepped back in panic, but tripped over a corpse.

Screamed instantly.

"Jiang Ci, if you kill me, my brother will never forgive you, and Xian'er will fight you to the death."

However, Jiang Ci was not moved at all and spoke coldly.

"Cut off her hands."

Wanyue paused for a moment, then thought about Mu Qingli's appearance just now and made a decision in her heart.

Just as she was about to swing the sword, she heard Mu Qingli speak behind her.

"Wanyue, don't be impulsive, she is the imperial concubine."

Wanyue's sword barely stopped, but it was still in front of the Imperial Concubine.

Jiang Ci looked at the person in his arms, but saw that she was deliberately avoiding his gaze.

Mu Qingli's voice was very soft, but Jiang Ci and Wan Yue could hear it clearly.

"She is a noble concubine. Killing her will not benefit you."

When Mu Qingli spoke, Jiang Ci glanced coldly at the imperial concubine who was trembling all over.

After a moment of silence.

"Whatever my elder sister says is what I will listen to her. But I won't let any of the others off."

Just as he finished speaking.

I heard an angry voice coming from the door.

"Jiang Ci, are you planning a rebellion?"
