Translator: Dragon Boat Translation , Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Wen Xiu pressed the dagger against Li Shuangers throat and shouted. Her voice was initially sweet, but at this moment, it became murderous. Her eyes were no longer as gentle as water but abnormally sharp.

You killed my parents. Ill fight you to the death.

Li Shuang er wanted to fight Wen Xiu to the death with the dagger stuck to her throat. The sharp blade cut her skin, and blood gushed out.

Wen Xiu, stop.

Before Li Daniu could react to Xiao Zeyus words, he saw Wen Xiu cut his sister with a dagger. He shouted anxiously, wanting to go over and save his sister.

Dont come over.

Wen Xiu rebuked him sternly. The dagger in her hand was pressed against Li Shuang ers neck. She exerted a little force, and blood gushed out wildly, scaring Li Daniu so much that he did not dare to move. Li Shuanger was in extreme pain, and warm blood flowed down. She was so scared that she did not dare to move anymore.

Let go of Shuanger. Ill give you how much money you want.

When Li Shuangers husband saw that his wife was being held hostage, he hurriedly shouted at Wen Xiu. It didnt matter if he went bankrupt. He could earn more money. If his wife died, he would never see her again.

Xiao Zeyu looked at Wen Xiu and said coldly,

Let go of her, and Ill let you go.

No, if I let her go, youll have to get someone to catch me immediately. If you want me to let her go, you can come over in exchange.

Wen Xiu did not fall for it. She was surrounded by the Royal Guards, who were eyeing her covetously. She knew that as long as she let go of Li Shuanger, Xiao Zeyu would order his men to capture her.

If she were caught, she would have no way out. Now, she was fighting with her back against the wall. She was betting on whether Xiao Zeyu cared about Li Daniu and his sister.

Wen Xiu, why are you like this? Let go of my sister.

He saved this woman. Now, she might be the murderer of his parents and had kidnapped his sister. Li Danius heart ached. He was unwilling to beheve the scene in front of him. He hoped that this was a nightmare.

When he saved her, she was helpless and begged him to take her in. Her beauty and gentleness made him fascinated. After they got married, they lived a beautiful life. Even if Li Daniu saw it with his own eyes, he was unwilling to believe that she was a bad person. He hoped that Wen Xiu would listen to his advice and let go of his sister.

Shut up.

Wen Xiu shouted at Li Daniu impatiently. She no longer had her usual gentleness. Her eyes were filled with killing intent.

Emperor, whats wrong? Are you afraid of death? So the Emperor of the Great Tang is a coward; isnt he afraid of being laughed at by the people?

Wen Xiu looked at Xiao Zeyu with a cold smile, trying to goad him.

Xiao Zeyu stood with his hands behind his back and looked coldly at Wen Xiu. Provoking him was useless, but he couldnt stand idly by and watch Li Shuang er get killed.

Aunt Li and Uncle Li had already been killed. If Shuanger died , Daniu would be alone. He would feel guilty and blame himself for the rest of his life.

For the sake of Li Daniu, Xiao Zeyu had to accept it even if he knew it was a goading tactic. Moreover, Xiao Zeyu was bold and did not put Wen Xiu in his eyes.

Alright, Zhen will exchange for her.

Since Wen Xiu already knew his ident.i.ty, Xiao Zeyu no longer had to hide it deliberately. With a single word, the Emperor pressed down on Wen Xiu like a mountain.

Wen Xius eyes were filled with hatred, but simultaneously, there was a flash of fear. This man was not a good-for-nothing, nor was he a weak scholar. He was the Emperor on horseback, and his hands had killed countless people.

Moreover, his willpower was excellent. The last time she used seduction techniques on him, it did not work. But now, there was no other way. She could only fight with her back against the wall.

Her plan to avenge her country could still be realized if she won the bet. If she lost the bet, it would only be a life.

Xiao Zeyu walked towards her step by step. Wen Xiu subconsciously dragged Li Shuanger back. Although she was mentally prepared, she was still suffocated by the pressure from Xiao Zeyus body. Her intuition of danger made her regret it a little, but now she had no way to escape, so she could only bite the bullet.

Let her go.

Xiao Zeyu walked over to Wen Xiu and ordered her to release her.

Tie yourself up.

Wen Xiu naturally wouldnt let Li Shuanger go just like that. She shouted at

Xiao Zeyu with all her might.

She would only be safer if he were tied up.

Wen Xiu? Put down the knife.

Li Daniu impulsively approached and wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the knife from Wen Xius hand. Wen Xiu immediately cut Li Shuangers neck. Li Shuang er cried out in pain. Her husband anxiously knelt on the ground and begged Wen Xiu, Sister-in-law, please let Shuanger go. Shes still pregnant!

Wenxiu, weve been husband and wife for one night. Please let Shuanger know that I saved you.

Li Daniu was so frightened that he did not dare to move. He begged Wen Xiu, hoping she would remember the kindness he had shown her by saving her life. Hmph, save me? Do you think you saved me? I lured you here on purpose. Do you think youre a hero?

Wen Xiu looked at Li Daniu mockingly. The disgust in her eyes could not be concealed. She had been acting with him for half a month. Every day, she would smile at him and pretend to be gentle. At night, just thinking about it made her want to vomit.

As for a night as a couple? Do you think weve slept together?

Wen Xiu looked at Li Daniu in disgust.

Youre just a farmer. How dare you share a bed with me?

What did you say?

Li Daniu looked at her in disbelief. They had slept together before, so why did she say that?

Every night, I give you medicine that makes you intoxicated with yourself. You can do whatever you want.

Wen Xiu sneered. Li Danius face was ashen. He remembered now. Wen Xiu brought him a bowl of calming soup every day. He thought that Wen Xiu was concerned about him, but it turned out that she was drugging him.

Those intimate moments were all fantasies he had after drinking the medicine. Why are you doing this to me? Li Daniu looked at Wen Xiu angrily.

Because you still have some value.

Wen Xiu looked at him coldly without any reluctance. Her voice was filled with disdain. She thought highly of him for letting her act with him.

At least she had married him. If this were in the past, he wouldnt be worthy of leading her horse.

You Did you kill my parents?

Li Daniu clenched his fists in anger. This was the most outstanding humiliation for a man. The wife he had married had not even let him touch her, and she even looked down on him from the bottom of her heart.

The two old things saw what happened, so I had no choice but to kill them to silence them.

Wen Xiu replied coldly as if she was not killing her in-laws but a chicken and a duck.

Im going to kill you.

Li Daniu was so angry that he wanted to kill Wen Xiu. However, he stopped when he saw another b.l.o.o.d.y scar on his sisters neck. He had nowhere to vent his anger. He hated himself for letting a wolf into his house. He pounded his chest hard and let out a roar.

Xiao Zeyu saw that Li Shuangers neck had been cut by Wen Xiu again. He ordered the Royal Guards at the side in a deep voice,

Men, tie me up..
