The Fourth Prince’s entire body stiffened for a mont, silently exclaiming, "This is bad."
Adjusting his facial expression, he slowly turned around...
Not far away, Xuexue was staring at him in terror with a maid, looking like they had seen a murderer.
For a mont, the Fourth Prince was at a loss, his mind in chaos: "It wasn’t ... It was Second Miss Situ who collided into herself."
"Second Sister, Second Sister, what happened to you?"
Xuexue completely ignored the Fourth Prince, bypassed him, and went forward to check on Qinger.
At this mont, all of Qinger’s skin had turned purple-black; she had already stopped breathing. Even if the Great Luo Immortal descended, it would be impossible to bring her back to life.
"Fourth Prince, explain yourself, what on earth happened? Why did you murder Qinger? How did she offend you for you to be so ruthless?"
"This woman was unfaithful, she deserved to die."
"How we handle her is our General’s Mansion’s business. Fourth Prince, you have wantonly killed soone. I’ll go to The Emperor to report you."
"Xuexue, this little cheap person was always trying to harm you. Now that she’s dead, isn’t it better for you and for ? Why seek justice for her? She’s not worth it." The Fourth Prince attempted to persuade Xuexue to take his side.
Xuexue laughed coldly inside; she finally had a chance to take down this scumbag—would she let it pass easily? It was laughable.
Actually, Xuexue had followed Qinger here. Earlier, she had been observing from the shadows and didn’t co out until Qinger was killed by the Fourth Prince, to stop him from destroying the corpse.
"Whatever happens between us sisters is our General’s Mansion’s business; no need for the Fourth Prince to worry."
Speaking, Xuexue called Zi Xia to carry Qinger’s body away.
"Hold on."
Seeing them trying to take Qinger’s corpse away, the Fourth Prince panicked and suddenly blocked their way, posing as if to stop them from leaving.
Xuexue’s eyes turned cold: "Fourth Prince, what do you want to do?"
"Leave this little cheap person’s body behind, you can leave."
"What if I say no?"
"Well, sorry, then I’d have to send you down to hell to accompany her."
Zi Xia looked at the Fourth Prince in disbelief. She used to think the Fourth Prince was handso, dignified, and a gentleman. But today’s event completely overturned her view: "Fourth Prince, don’t you like my First Miss? How can you bear to kill her?"
Between power and won, the Fourth Prince naturally chose the forr without hesitation; with power, what beauty couldn’t he have?
Moreover, if The Emperor knew he had killed Qinger, his image would surely be greatly diminished. The power struggle among the princes had beco increasingly fierce, and privately, they were killing each other, hoping to have one less opponent at the crucial mont.
Xuexue laughed coldly, her tone full of mockery: "The Fourth Prince loves no one, he only loves power."
In her past life, she lived in confusion, not knowing she was being used, foolishly believing the Fourth Prince truly loved her; until the mont in the dungeon, hearing from Qinger’s own mouth, that the Fourth Prince was interested in her only because of her legitimate daughter status and Situ Yongjie’s military power.
From past to present life, the Fourth Prince’s goal had never changed. But today, Xuexue was no longer the sa Xuexue as in her past life—easy to fool, easy to deceive.
The Fourth Prince coaxed in a low voice, "Xuexue, be good, leave this little cheap person’s body behind, and when I sit on the throne in the future, you will be the Empress reigning over the world."
