Chapter 431 The Xiao Family's Sinister Intentions

Looking at his obedient children hugged by Shen Ninghua, Baili Junyi couldn't help but smile. The situation in the capital was an ugly sight, and the officials in the court were treacherous. Only a child's thoughts were the purest and harmless things, which made one relax unconsciously.He went forward to help Shen Ninghua up and then picked up the children. "Alright, let's go back into the mansion first. We can talk later after we're inside."When Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua entered the mansion, the spies hiding in the surroundings hurriedly sent the news back to the imperial palace.At this time, in the imperial palace, the Crown Prince ordered everyone to leave and walked up to Chengqian Hall alone. He raised his head to look at the mighty throne with his eyes filled with a determined gaze. He walked step by step toward the throne on the staircase carved with auspicious dragon designs. He seemed to be able to hear the sound of people

Chapter 432 It Was Too Late!

Xiao Jingran's eyes were cold, and his tone was rude. "Princess Zhaohua, others might not do so, but you might. Your reputation as a filial daughter is nothing new. Moreover, you have a motive, as your affair with the Second Prince has been exposed many times. You must be the reason Side Concubine Yang died back then. Now that Madam Xia has come to investigate the truth, it must be impossible for you to stay still. It makes sense for you to send people to assassinate Madam Xia so as to hide the truth."Shen Ninghua scoffed. "Old General Xiao, you have always held a grudge toward me as you thought I murdered Xiao Huanxi. When Xiao Huanxi was obsessed with the Fifth Prince, you helped her a lot, and you two worked together to frame me. After she accidentally fell into the water and died, you tried to disgust me when you held her funeral. Since you're trying to avenge her wholeheartedly now, you will frame me like a mad person when you have the tiniest suspicions. F

Chapter 433 A Determined Conviction

Shen Ninghua's expression was cold. "Preventing the assassins from escaping? It must be an excuse to stop us from leaving the city during the chaos. Xiao Jingran is indeed a veteran first-rank general. He is merciless in killing and never leaves a way out for anyone!"Baili Junyi suddenly put on his robe and quickly tidied his clothes. "Qing Que, go bring the children over to Ninghua. Ninghua, you can be at ease while waiting in Huajun Pavilion. Don't worry. No one can hurt you here."Shen Ninghua frowned. "What about you? Are you going to kill Xiao Jingran and the people he brought out there?" Since Xiao Jingran dared to barge in with such great fanfare, it meant he had a backup plan. Maybe Xiao Jingran was enticing Baili Junyi to be defensive so that he would have a reason to kill him!Baili Junyi reached out to help her put on her clothes but did not answer her question. Instead, he said softly, "It's cold at night. Be careful not to

Chapter 434 Imprisoned in the Imperial Clan Court!

Bu Yonghan, who was dressed in a red dress, slowly walked over. When she saw Baili Jinchuan's condition, she exclaimed in surprise, "Your Highness, what happened to your hand? Why is it injured? Someone, come quick! Why are the maids not doing their jobs properly? How can they not notice that you're injured..."Baili Jinchuan suddenly lifted his head, and his eyes were like a sharp sword piercing into Bu Yonghan. "Where did you go?"Bu Yonghan slightly widened her eyes and raised her hand to stroke her temples. Her eyes were filled with a seductive charm. "I went for a walk since I noticed you were in a bad mood and did not have time to spare me some attention."Baili Jinchuan sneered. He got up and slowly walked to Bu Yonghan. Then, he raised his hand and pinched her chin. With a forceful grip, he left a bruise on her chin. "A walk? Did you accidentally wander into the Imperial Palace and bump into the Crown Prince, Baili Jinyi?"

Chapter 435 Enough with Your Nonsense!

Inside Chengqian Hall, the Crown Prince was sitting on the throne. Meanwhile, several princes and Imperial Counselors stood on both sides, with Baili Junyi and Xiao Jingran facing each other in the middle of the hall.Baili Junyi's expression was cold like a sharp blade, and Xiao Jingran's face looked gloomy. His under eyes were dark as if he had not rested for a long time, and a sense of irritability exuded from him.Baili Jinyi spoke, "Old General Xiao, is everything you said true?"Xiao Jingran paused for a moment and quickly nodded. "Yes, Your Highness. Every word that I have said is true. Those assassins were hiding in the Fifth Prince Mansion at that time. When I was in the midst of my investigation, I happened to capture them and obtain their confessions. A few of them have already signed their confessions. According to them, the Fifth Prince's princess consort, Princess Zhaohua, had sent them. Firstly, they were sent to assassina

Chapter 436 Breaking One of Your Arms!

After Xiao Jingran heard the Crown Prince's stern voice, his expression wavered for a moment. However, he was consumed by the violence and anger in his heart, which ultimately led him to punch Baili Junyi.A strong fist wind suddenly came in front of Baili Junyi. However, he looked calm. He gathered his internal force and reached out his hand to block Xiao Jingran's punch!Although Xiao Jingran was old, he was a general who had fought on the battlefield. His punch was strong and mighty. However, he felt hitting Baili Junyi's palm was like hitting an iron armor. A sharp pain spread from his fist to his wrist and then through his entire arm. Soon, a loud cracking sound was heard. The sound of Xiao Jingran's bones shattering even made everyone wince in pain.At once, Xiao Jingran took six steps back to stabilize himself. He looked at Baili Junyi with surprise and disbelief. When did his martial arts skills become this powerful?

Chapter 437 Open the Prison Door!

The chief guard behind Bu Yonghan had a troubled expression. "Second Princess, this is really..." Although Princess Zhaohua was locked up, who knew how things would turn out in the end? He was just a low-ranking official, after all. Others could easily demolish him with just a flick of their fingers. He couldn't risk offending anyone.Bu Yonghan frowned. "Hurry up and open the door. What are you waiting for?"Nurse Wu quickly stepped forward and said anxiously, "Your Highness, this is not the right place. Moreover, Princess Zhaohua has not been convicted yet. If you hurt her..."Bu Yonghan suddenly swung her whip and lashed it at Nurse Wu. "Are you helping her or me?"Nurse Wu felt a pang of pain in her body. She took a few steps back and almost fell to the ground. Despite that, she was still painstakingly trying to change Bu Yonghan's mind. "Your Highness, you can't..."Bu Yonghan did not care at all. She had n

Chapter 438 A Fierce Fight at Midnight!

Xiao Jingran came out of the imperial palace and was about to go to the Imperial Clan Court when he was stopped by Xiao Fengjue. "Father, I have something to discuss with you."Xiao Jingran frowned and did not intend to get off the horse. "You go back first. I will return to the mansion after I am back from the Imperial Clan Court.""Father, the matter is urgent.""What is it?""I want to leave the capital.""Leave the capital? If you leave here, where can you go?" Xiao Jingran was full of disapproval. In his opinion, Xiao Fengjue was the kind of person who was blessed by his ancestors but did not want to admit it. Instead, he was determined to prove his ability. Once he left the capital and the family no longer helped him, he would know that living in the world was a difficult task."I want to join the army in the northwest.""No way! You must stay in the capital." Although Xiao Jingra

Chapter 439 A Successful Mission!

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have associated the gentle Crown Prince from before with the man with an evil smile in front of them now. The difference between these two images was far too significant.Baili Jinyi ignored Shen Ninghua's expression and raised his head to look at the door. "From the looks of it, they should be near Chengqian Hall and the harem. Can you imagine how Fifth Brother will react after he finds out that the harem's bedroom is empty and filled with skilled crossbowmen after going through so much to get there? Will he lose his mind from the shock? Haha!"Shen Ninghua's eyes suddenly widened. Skilled crossbowmen? She couldn't believe that Baili Jinyi had actually mobilized the crossbowmen. "The skilled crossbowmen are all in the military camp. Did Xiao Jingran help you?""Why are you so surprised? I guess it's okay to let you know now. Ever since Xiao Huanxi died, Xiao Jingran has sided with

Chapter 440 Fighting a Way Out of Heavy Encirclement!

Baili Jinyi shouted, "Stop Baili Junyi! He is trying to assassinate His Majesty! Kill him at once!"Baili Junyi tugged away the bed curtain and bent down to pick up Baili Qingcang. He threw Baili Qingcang on his back and used the curtain to hold him in place. Then, he held a sword and rushed out!"Stop him! Stop him quickly!"Baili Junyi continued to slash and kill the guards without mercy. The guards who were blocking his way fell one by one. However, he was not bothered by the pools of blood everywhere. He was like a God of War with a sharp blade, killing anyone in his way!As soon as they saw Baili Junyi rushing out, the people waiting outside immediately engulfed and protected him before evacuating in an orderly manner.Baili Jinyi was filled with anger and shouted hoarsely, "Quick! Stop them! Stop them! Don't let them get out of the palace! You shall pay with your life if you guys fail to stop him!"
