ace. 。She raised an eyebrow at him. “It seems there are still things in this world worth your attention, and you’re not in a hurry to commit suicide.” 。Worried that Nangong Ye might become disheartene...Qingxuan sneered, "This maid actually dares to say anything!"

Chapter Jin, upon hearing this, was momentarily at a loss.

Just now he saw Chun Tao almost being strangled to death by the princess, so he stepped forward to save her. Unexpectedly, this girl didn't know what was good for her and turned around and accused him!

Zhang Jin shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Chun Tao is no longer afraid of Zhang Jin now.

Chun Tao: "You're protecting her so fiercely now, isn't it because you've been secretly intimate with her..."

Before Chun Tao could finish her words, Qing Xuan slapped her across the face.

One side of her face was burning hot, the other pressed against Zhang Jin's sword. Even though Chun Tao was angry, she didn't dare to make a move.

Chun Tao glared at him, her eyes blazing with fury. "How dare you hit me!"

Slap!

Another crisp sound.

Chun Tao was slapped again.

Qing Xuan said in a low voice: "You are just an ordinary maid, and you dare to be so presumptuous in front of this princess! I haven't consummated my marriage with the king, and for something like this, as long as we bring in an experienced old nurse to examine me, it will prove that you are slandering this princess. At that time, I'll make a scene in front of Empress Jiang, and the one who dies will be you!"

Chun Tao's heart sank upon hearing this.

This dead woman is right.

It's all the King's fault now. He's no different from a corpse, his whole body like a lump of flesh paste. He's not even a real person anymore, how could he possibly be intimate with her This poor woman is ruined.

Chun Tao lost her threat against Qing Xuan's composure and instead turned her face into a smile, fawningly saying: "Your Highness, I was just impulsive earlier and said things I shouldn't have. You are magnanimous, please don't hold a lowly servant like me accountable."

She is Jiang Fei's eyes and ears. As long as Ji Qingxuan doesn't kill her, even if she is maimed, Jiang Fei won't care about her.

After all, in the eyes of the imperial concubine Jiang, her life was worth no more than an ant's.

She certainly didn't want her face to be ruined!

"Don't want to be caught by Qingxuan, but it is a sneer: "How Now knowing that as long as you are not killed by me, Jiang Fei will not find trouble with me, are you afraid"

Chun Tao wants Qing Xuan to kneel down to her right now.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jin's sword was pressed against her face, she couldn't even kneel down.

This period of time, seeing Chun Tao acting like a triumphant little villain, she plans to initiate a "kill the chicken to warn the monkey" approach.

Qingxuan took down the hairpin from her head and forcefully drew it across Chun Tao's face.

The sharp hairpin’s tip drew a deep, bone-visible bloodstain across her cheek.

Chun Tao: "Ah! It hurts!"

Chun Tao let out a painful pig squeal.

Chun Tao: "My face! My face is ruined!"

Chun Tao trembled all over, looking at the blood staining her palms.

Qing Xuan kicked Chun Tao in the stomach with one foot, her eyes cold and menacing. She was no longer the meek and submissive girl she had been before.

"If you dare to provoke me again, I have a thousand ways to torment you, making your life worse than death."

Chun Tao's face was disfigured. At this moment, she wanted to rush forward and fight Qing Xuan, but she was so frightened by Qing Xuan's eyes that she couldn't move.

She was a maid who had seen the world, even when Empress Jiang got angry, she wasn't as terrifying as the woman in front of her.

Zhang Jin stood aside, lips tightly pursed.

From the current situation, the princess is more capable and intelligent than he imagined.

Qingxuan: "Get out of here!"

Still being tormented by Qingxuan, Chun Tao covered her face and glared at Qingxuan with hatred before scurrying away.

After Chun Tao left, Qing Xuan began to wait.

Chun Tao is waiting to tell Empress Jiang that Nangong Ye is still alive.

Let's see if the Imperial Concubine has any other tricks up her sleeve.

If that is the case, then it means the mastermind behind the assassination attempt on Ginger Red is the Empress Ginger.

After Chun Tao left, she just glanced at Zhang Jin briefly and didn't say much.

After all, they held different stances. He saved Chun Tao and protected her, so it evened out.

Qing Xuan returned to the courtyard. She didn't let Yun Sheng continue washing the bed sheets, lest she expose herself.

However, even as nightfall approached, she still hadn't waited for Empress Jiang to arrive personally.

She fed Nangong Ye gui hua shan yao su bing while saying, "It seems the assassin sent to kill you wasn't sent by Ginger Concubine. But now that Jiang Hong has failed, they will definitely send a second wave of assassins. Should I find a few more skilled guards to hide in this courtyard and protect you"

Namgung Yeop said, "The assassination attempt on me failed, and the other party has been alerted. In the short term, they should observe and wait, and will not send a second wave of assassins." day of changing bed sheets for Nanyung Yeop, but unexpectedly, she ended up having her frostbite flare up."My hands are itchy.To avoid looking different in front of Nangong Ye, she hid her hand insid...
